I uninstalled Firefox because it kept crashing when I tried to open a particular site. I followed instructions by removing several files on my computer. When I tried to reinstall it, wanting me to open a new account, and there was no way to sign back in my other account. I have lots of bookmarks and my Outlook files and folders were set up under the Firefox browser. How can I recover and restore what I had?

With this brand new Win11 computer (not an upgrade, it came with Win11) after installing firefox and logging in to my previously saved account, every time I open firefox the Home page (my bank) does not recognize the https: and asks me to continue. once i get into my bank account, log in, log out, then open a new tab my it recognizes my bank page. If I close firefox and open a new window, same thing.

Also, on a second tab I need to login to my Google account for some email and it take a long time for the page to come up to login.

How can I make firefox run as fast as it did on Win10? Also, 3rd party internet security is AVG. Everything is new/fresh install so all software is up to date.

Thank you. KEN

I recently upgraded to windows 11 from windows 10. Firefox was disabled somehow. I got it up and running again and my default search engine is DuckDuckGo. I cannot enter text for searches into the search box (below the firefox logo. Any text I try to enter appears in the address box (on line 2 near the the top of the home page). What do I have to do to enable the search box to receive text and function properly for browsing? What am I missing? Thanks for your help. John Hall

I have gone to "settings" and have changed the search engine to Duck DuckGo from Dogpile (after hearing some disturbing news about Dogpile). However, even after changing to DDGo and 'shutting down' (cold boot), my searches are still routed through Dogpile even though 'originating' in DDgo. How do I get rid of this 'flypaper' of an application? BTW, I am on Windows 10.

3rd part cookie functionality failing for a specific webpage

Hi everyone. I am a college student and my university's course portal, Brightspace (similar to Blackboard or Canvas) offers Zoom meeting recordings as an embedded webpage on its website, calling 3rd party cookies. Up till last semester, Firefox was able to open that. However, maybe because of the latest Firefox, web server, or macOS Sonoma update, this is no longer happening.

The webpage is able to be called in Chrome and Safari, but it asks you to redirect to zoom.us instead of directly calling zoom.us. Chrome was able to call zoom.us directly into the website once I enable 3rd part cookies, which makes me think this is a 3rd party cookie issue.

NOTE: In the past, Firefox never asked to redirect either, so it seems to me that they updated the webpage security which might be inhibiting Firefox functionality.

I have tried the following: 1. Redownloading Firefox 2. Using "Custom" Protection to allow all cookies 3. Switching off Enhanced Protection on the website 4. Using Firefox on iOS (iPad and iPhone) -> Zoom inside Brightspace will work normally on these two but not my macbook which is weird

Here are some images attached of what it appears like. The Firefox one is blank; Chrome directly calls the zoom webpage, and Safari redirects with an apt link. But Firefox is simply blank.

Please help me figure out whether Firefox is unable to send an appropriate request, Brightspace/Zoom is not allowing that request, or Firefox is unable to load up the website. And what can I do to get the Zoom back on. All suggestions are helpful! Thank you guys so much.

I really need to get some amount of a title bar back. I'm constantly grabbing tabs and dragging them out of their window trying to move the window around.

I've been working with chatgpt to find a solution, but none of them seem to work.

I'm running v132 under kde plasma.

I've tried a variety of about:config settings as well as some legacy settings and custom css with no success. I've been able to get a transluscent shadow box above the tabs, but it's non-interactive.

I'd really appreciate some guidance. This has become a deal breaker for me. I can understand the desire to conserve space, but zero room to grab a window and move it is too extreme.

Thanks in advance

I seem to keep getting a popup every few hours regarding XULRunner complaining about "This profile was last used with a newer version of this application. Please create a new profile." This will occur every so often, even when Firefox is not open.

I have already attempted to:

  • Reboot
  • Clear cache
  • Uninstall extensions
  • Uninstall/reinstall Firefox
  • Downgrade Firefox
  • Make a new profile and switch to it
  • Delete all previous existing profiles

I think I've run out of things to do, anyone got a silver bullet for this thing? I was unable to find anything conclusive with Google, so I figured I'd ask here.
