After restarting my computer, I got a new FF web page and ALL my bookmarks as well as history have been deleted.
How do I get them ALL back?
I have tried every solution on the Mozilla Help section - I cant do a Restore I have a very old version of backups - 2016
The online help system is going around and around in circles not giving any solutions. 4 hours of trying to sort this out is ridculous.
I really do not want to have to move to Chrome, I far prefer Mozilla, but I can not afford to loose more time sorting this problem out. If not resolved here, I will reluctantly have to restart all my bookmarks in Chrome.
I need all my bookmarks - some are work related.
Please Help

I'm using FF63.0.3 and a Mac with OS 10.11.6. Firefox works generically well EXCEPT sometimes when I try to save bookmarks, all hell breaks loose. I save them, they LOOK like they're saved, and I try to sync. The sync goes off in never-never land, and never finishes. Aaargh, I say, and I restart Firefox, whereby my new bookmarks are GONE! No memory of them. No record of being at them in my History. Now I should say that when I kill Firefox in this circumstance, I get an "Application not responding" error, so clearly something has already been hosed.
I should say that this happens occasionally. Not always. But it's pretty exasperating when it does, trying to recover those lost bookmarks. Normally, when I sync, it just takes a few seconds, and everything is keen.
Insights abut why, or how to prevent this? This has been going on for months, surviving re-downloading Firefox, and reboots.

Firefox crashes about once a week. When it does, it resets as though it were a fresh install. My previous session, my "profile" and my new-tab page all go away. Yet somehow it retains my history and bookmarks.
This is on Windows 10. I can detect no common factors other then that it usually happens on a restart. As in, I shut the computer down and all is well; yet when I boot up next, firefox has reset. However it does NOT do it on every shut down because the system gets shut down every night. It's only once a week-ish.
Firefox crashes every time on macOS Mojave
It crashes immediately I try to open on MacBook

When i run Malwarebytes it identifies 'pref.js' in the firefox directory as unsafe on the latest FF 64 bit 63.0.3. I then choose the option to quarantine it even if its a needed and safe file thats part of firefox. When I run Malwarebytes again, it detects it again!

Hi
Today Firefox started to ask "master password" on startup. Yes I use master password, but Firefox never asked it on startup. Why this could be happening? It does not matter what startup page I load, it could be blank page or any other. No sync or other Mozilla account is connected. Tried to disable all add-ons, does not help. Firefox version: 63.0.3 (64-bit).

The title says it all:
After the Developer Toolbar has been removed in Firefox v62, how do I emulate media queries, like "print"? And how do I reset this setting?
Just for your information in case your are in doubt about my question: While the Developer Toolbar was active, the Developer Toolbar command for setting media emulation to print was "media emulate print". The command for resetting the media type was "media reset".
Your answer is appreciated.

Screen shot shows near completion. I've tried without success lots of things to make some final changes. I need help with further css rules to put in userChrome.css.
1) Selected tab versus the others: they should look the same except for font-weight, how to get rid of the white in the selected tab 'background'?
2) Tab labels: how to shift them left to be almost flush with red border-left?
3) 3 buttons for minimize, fullscreen and close: what css rules will move them up a few pixels to the top edge of the window?
4) Narrow white rectangle to the right of the reload button: how to get rid of it?
5) Gap between the Info and PadLock icons: how to get rid of it?
6) Icons for Privacy Badger, etc. and the Triple-Bar: how to make them larger, similar to the Back, Forward, and Reload svgs?

With Firefox version 63, I have the problem on YouTube and Netflix, if I snap Firefox in a corner (with mouse or WIN + arrow keys) and switch a video to full screen, left and right is still a few pixels square. In addition, the taskbar is in the foreground (can not be fixed). [IMAGE 1]
If not left, right (top or bottom) snapped then it works, if Firefox is maximized too. The error occurs only in Firefox. Exit Explorer.exe and reboot PC does not work. Error exists since update on the first day of release (early October) - version has been withdrawn by MS,
I also installed the version on my laptop and have been updating ever since.
Apparently the error also occurs with some others: https://www.reddit.com/r/Windows10/comments/9lwzmm/fullscreen_broken_in_october_update/ but it has probably not changed.
Useful data: Windows version 1809 build 17763.134 Graphics driver up to date Firefox completely reinstalled (profile, cache & cookies deleted) even without add-ons started. 2 monitors On the laptop (also tested with 2 monitors) no problems.
I am thankful for every help. Error is really annoying.

I just upgraded to Firefox 63.0.3. Now when I open pop-up windows, they appear, but the content is confined to the top left 1/4 of the new window, and cannot be resized to fill the window. If I try to resize the content, it only enlarges within the 1/4 of the window.
I tried:
1. Open in safemode, with all extensions disabled. No change 2. Delete xulstore.json - worked ONLY ONCE. After that, no change. 3. Changed about:profile dom.disable_window_open_feature.resizable -> " from "false" to true" - no change. 4. Downloaded and installed firefox again - no change.
I am not sure what else to do.

New setup (new PC), logged in to firefox account, both sides ticked to sync options, add ons and bookmarks. The latter 2 synced, but not the options (ie. layout) and the add-on options totally do not sync. Default firefox setup is super annoying with it's pocket, no direct icon for bookmarks etc etc. Not mentioning custom filters for ublock. So I expected this all will sync but it doesn't. One more thing - any way to sync passwords? Some offline method?

Supposedly, removing the values from this about:config setting, extensions.webextensions.restrictedDomains, and adding this to about:config, privacy.resistFingerprinting.block_mozAddonManager, and seting it to true, was supposed to reverse "Firefox extensions “restricted” from running on some sites", but I can't get it to work.
