When I went online today (8/21/2024) firefox said it needed an update and started running it. Seemed to take a long time, and then timed out. killed the browser and restarted. Same thing.

Is this a bad update? Having to use another product to ask this question.

I am trying to manage Firefox for company devices via Intune and would like to know if there is a way to uninstall all extensions/add-ons besides one or two approved ones.

I have been able to import the Firefox AMDX into Intune and have made a policy to install uBlock (which works without issue) and I can uninstall specific extensions/add-ins via their Extension ID (also without issue), however I can't see a way to uninstall all extensions. If I try and put a wildcard in the Extension ID field, nothing is affected.

We have a large number of devices with their own user-installed extensions so auditing this and then updating a policy manually with specific extension IDs may be quite painful.

We use Firefox Developer Edition in our Enterprise and any auto-update (whether it be the background process or 'check for updates' button) fails to work, due to much of mozilla.org being blocked by our internet security. I want to be able to provide our security team with a definitive URL that the auto-update process uses.

I found mentions of aus5.mozilla.org but in testing this has proved not to be used.

I have bookmarks and saved passwords from an old computer (x86) that I want to import to a new computer (M1).

I have the drive with all my old files on it, and can mount it on my new computer. It is not possible to boot the old computer to export my files. How can I migrate them using purely file operations to the new Firefox?

I am trying to use the tree style tree expansion for Firefox. When I install the tab bar appears at left side as it should, BUT the tab bar appears at the top too. I understand it has to do with the userChrome.css: Questions: 1. The css file is supposed to be created in this folder: C:\Users\jssch\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ 6p6hqx7v.App1d96b2329ff34563bd901f480a66632f\storage\permanent\chrome I that the correct location customized for my pc. 2. Could you supply the correct code for the css file. I am assuming I can use Notepad++ to create the file.

Thank you for your assistance. My email is jsschwab2002@gmail.com

I added the repository ppa:mozillateam/ppa, but it installs the Thunderbird 115 instead of the latest 128. Is there any way to install Thunderbird 128 from a PPA? If not, will it be updated some day? Alternatively is there any deb version available of Thunderbird 128?

Thank you.

I was using Thunderbird this morning 08-02-2024 and for some reason a quick pop up window appeared. I now get an error messasge "cannot load xpcom" I uninstalled Thunderbird and tried to download/re-install but cannot get past the donation part which I have already donated. Does this mean each time I have to re-install I have to now make another donation? I noticed that I have a Firefox installer but no Thunderbird installer. Was it removed when I did a uninstall?

I have tried to download the latest update (v129.0.2). The download stops at about 98kb. This happened on the last update (v129.0.1) as well and it took me countless attempts to get it to work.

I know there are work-arounds but why should I have to **** around with my machine just to get an update?

Firefox has been an excellent browser but something has happened. I tried to access the help and, after several minutes of a blank page, I got the attached. Other legitimate pages are not loading. Sorely tempted to revert to Safari but i have donated this year and still prefer Firefox.

Hello, I just got a new macbook air because fluid was spilled on the previous one. The older laptop works but the display is not functioning. So I can't use the migration assistant, which requires responding to screen prompts, which in this case are not visible to me. I also just updated my password. Is there a way to recover this data?
