I have two PC's I have Firefox on both and I have some time in the past set up sync as from the firefox (top left) icon it has listed 'sync now'
What I would like to know is what exactly gets synced !
When clicking 'Sync Now', is this an upload or a download from the PC ?
If a download then how do you do an upload of changes and if a download how do you do an upload of changes from either PC.
I am totally confused how it works please explain as my two PC's only seem to have been synced once after the first time I joined them with the code !

Hello to everybody :o)
several websites, i.e. YouTube, Facebook and Google, detect the actual version of Firefox despite the fact I set a different version number (more recent) by means of the "User Agent Switcher" plugin.
So my question is twofold:
1) how can I change the "fingerprint" of my Firefox effectively, in order to make *any* website recognize the version number which I set (and not the real one)?
2) how those websites do detect the ACTUAL identity of a given browser, despite the changes to the User Agent string that one may have made by means of a switcher?
Thank you in advance to all you folks!

Whenever i press control, the screen zooms out, text shrinks. this is only in firefox, internet explorer still requires me to press control and plus or minus. in addition, if i press shift while in a text box in firefox, such as to type a capitol letter while writting this, the browser goes "back". i am using an onscreen keyboard to get by this. it doesn't matter which key i press in combination with shift, the browser goes back. these problems are only in firefox. ive restarted the brower, updated to most recent version, and restarted the computer. no keys are stuck and the mouse is working with fresh batteries. what can this be?

I have a valuable history of browsing in Safari that I would like to bring over to Firefox. The only solution I have been able to find after an hour of searching is this product; iMazing. It appears to do just what I need, by exporting the Safari Browsing History from the database to HTML which it says can then be Imported into Firefox. Sounds good, but I would prefer to not have to buy a 3rd party product. Any clues? Thank you.

Hello,
I just switched to Firefox and so far I've been the setting up process has been going smoothly. I've almost got the browser exactly how I want it to.
I am missing one last feature that I would really like to have; the ability to minimize and maximize Firefox with the use of my keyboard instead of having to rely on my mouse so I can switch between screens more fluently.
I don't know of there's an option available in Firefox itself or if there's already a combination of keys that do just that or if there's an Addon I can use. Any advice is therefor more than welcome.

Recently my company made some "in the name of security" changes. One of these was to give local IT two windows accounts, one for e-mail and day to day activities, and the other for when administrative privileged is required.
I have been using Firefox for years with out problems. I have made the tweaks for auto authentication to the domain as well as few others and everything has been working fine. Problem I am having is that now with my second credentials I have to have multiple browsers open so that the internal sites that require my privileged account authenticate properly. i have successfully gotten both Firefox (29.0.1) and Firefox portable (29.0.1) to run with my other credentials. (Love that -no-remote switch) My problem is any time something requires a plug-in YouTube(flash) The Firefox session started with my secondary (privileged) credentials starts displaying unresponsive script errors. This is a huge headache as several of my companies internal websites require both my secondary credentials, but they require flash as well?
