I-Firefox Community Forum

Hi,

I use Firefox app in macos, android and ipados. The bookmarks across them are not synching automatically. I need to press sync manuelly to do. All apps are updated, all settings look fine. Please help me synch bookmarks across platforms. Thanks a lot.

my bookmark bar disappered suddenly and all my tabs are gone. i tried to bookmark a new tab but it would not let me. and i didnt do anything different. opened my laptop today and i had to restore all tabs, and my bookmark bar is gone and all my shortcuts from bookmarks are gone too

With dailyexpress.co.uk using Firefox there are two pop ups. One is breaking news on each page using right links and the other is a subscribe to read any of the site, which is recent but prevents reading the site. This does not happen using Microsoft Edge.

I am currently trying to set up automatic backups to a local network folder. I have set browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML and browser.bookmarks.file via the about:config page. This creates the backup on X:\bookmarks.html as desired, but only this one backup. Is there another way to create the backups with a timestamp and to keep to the maximum number via browser.bookmarks.max_backups?

I use Firefox on a Mac to access Brightspace for my classes. I also use Grammarly. When copying text from the Grammarly widgets and pasting it into the Brightspace HTML editor, the text is stripped of hard returns, causing paragraphs to collapse without any breaks between them.

I have tried pasting as unformatted text, and the issue persists. This issue does not occur in Chrome, so I suspect it is due to how Firefox handles clipboard data. I have not found a workaround or resolution for this.

the clear option on search bar is not working i troubleshoot , restart and even reinstall the Firefox but it is not working . All other options like microphone camera all are working except clear option

When I try to connect to www.qsuper.qld.gov.au, I get this message:

"Pardon Our Interruption

I have checked that javascript is enabled and I do not have Ghostery or NoScript plugins. Interesting, the "support article" was hyperlinked and I could not access that either. (https://ds.tl/help-third-party-plugins, and the message is"server not found") I have rung Qsuper who advise me that there website is fine. Please advise any strategies. Many thanks in anticipation.

For the past 15-16 days, Firefox has been consuming extremely high memory.

The problem: - When Firefox first opens, it starts normally at around 300-400 MB - But after using it for about 1 hour, a single Firefox window grows to 1-2 GB of RAM - This keeps increasing the longer I use it (memory leak behavior) - Currently Firefox (41 processes) is using over 5,131 MB total memory on my system it's normal but after 1 hour a single firefox window grows to 1-2 GB of RAM

What I have tried: - The issue happens consistently every day for the past 15-16 days - Other browsers like Chrome and Chromium use much less memory in comparison

System info: - OS: Windows 11 - Firefox version: latest version 148.0.0.0

Please help me fix this memory leak issue. It is making my system very slow.

Tell me a working method of getting firefox to change my password so as to stop me having to sign in every time I need to use it. Worked before but doesn't work now.

I noticed that after the latest update, searching with the address bar no longer works as smoothly: autocomplete suggestions only appear in the bar when typing in a single character on a new tab, rather than updating with each additional keystroke. The suggestion only appears upon unselecting and reselecting the address bar. (see uploaded images)

Also, the search suggests seem to regenerate the entire dropdown menu with each keystroke, resulting in an unpleasant "flickering" appearance. It's not the biggest deal, but I don't recall firefox (mis)behaving this way before.

Can anyone help me with this?

FF is offering up possible login names for a particular site I have used previously even though I have removed all related browsing history, form data, and cookies (and cleared the cache). What am I missing? Is it using stored history for unrelated sites to guess at a user name, or is there some other hidden history I need to clear?

Firefox will only start if I sign in as an administrator. It doesn't connect to the internet, and I can't get to the help screen. I did a refresh but that hasn't help. If I uninstall and then reinstall a new copy correct the problem? How do I save and reinstall my bookmarks and settings? I love Firefox and prefer it over other browsers. But I need to fix it and any help you provide will be very much appreciated. Thank you!

I started using a new laptop and when I receive emails through Outlook, the excel attachments won't open and I get a message saying that I don't have the pdf software. These are Excell files, not PDF. I've tried all the suggestions on-line but they still won't download as Excel files, only Firefox files.

I was able to install it on my Mac mini running OS mountain lion with no problem but This is the error message I keep getting on my IMAC OS10.15.7 Catalina (attached): current browser is safari ver 15.6.1. Your help will be greatly appreciated!

I keep getting pr_connection_reset_error messages in Firefox version 148.0 64 bit. I have purchased the windows 10 OS with extended updates and am running version 22H2 os build 19045.6937 do you have any suggestions on fixing this problem? When I am in my gmail account and using Firefox and I need to do a password reset that is when I receive the above error message.

I just switched to Floorp from Chrome. When I try to print a shipping label with my DYMO 450 labelwriter, I cannot get the label to fit properly as I can with Chrome. It is an issue with the print dialog in Floorp. It does not have the "fit to paper" selection in scale section of the dialog. This makes the label print not near as well as in Chrome. I will be switching back to Chrome unless this can be addressed. See the 2 screenshots attached to see the issue.
