Whenever I try to launch Firefox, a blank window opens and immediately closes instead of the actual browser. This happens no matter how many times I try, even if I restart my computer. In case it's relevant, I'm using Windows 10.

When pressing the up arrow key with text in the URL bar, the bottom suggestion is selected, rather than returning the text cursor to the beginning. It used to place the insertion point at the very beginning of whatever text was in there, and then another up arrow press would select the bottom suggestion, but now it instantly wraps to the very bottom selection. It's quite frustrating when trying to modify a search query - now you either have to hold the left arrow key, or accurately click with the mouse

For instance, say I type "cloud" in the URL box, but figure "storm cloud" would be a better search. I can't just press the up arrow to add "storm ", because pressing the up arrow once now just replaces the entire line of text with "https://soundcloud.com/", completely ruining my search. I'm pretty sure this was recently changed with an update. Is there any hope of changing it back?

I use the above site to watch replays of the NFL. Upon updating the browser to the latest version, the page no longer loads the video content. It was working fine on the previous version and is working fine using Microsoft Edge. Can you please suggest a resolution?

Thank you

As the subject indicates, I'm unable to get passwords to sync and can't import from csv. Password file was generated by desktop Firefox on a Windows PC, trying to load to Firefox on Mac. I've manually entered usernames/passwords in the login fields for a few sites and selected the Save Password option when prompted, but about:logins# still says 0 logins and nothing populates when I return to the login page for those sites or pops up if I click or start typing in the username/password fields. Also attempted to sync using same Mozilla account logged in on iOS device and Mac, and that fails on the Mac, too (all passwords are still in iOS version and sync on the device is up-to-date). Error log from attempted sync includes, "Skipping check of passwords - disabled via preferences" and repeats 'Skipping check of... disabled...' for tabs, bookmarks, addons, etc., despite all of the options being selected under about:preferences#sync. Tried unchecking all, disconnecting, reconnecting, and making sure all were checked again. Tried to connect using QR code, but keep getting the message, "Pairing unsuccessful. Try again." as soon as I click on "Connect another device" - a QR code is never actually generated/displayed (see image), and clicking on it to 'try again' does not refresh/generate a QR code. A Primary Password (Master Password) has never been set for this account/on any associated devices. If I try to enter a web address, username, and password manually in about:logins#, it throws an error message and says it couldn't save, and asks me to enter a primary password which, again, I've never created/had. All versions of Firefox are up-to-date.

Please help.

As suggested in the post quoted below from [archived thread], I shared the error log from about:sync-log through the linked site.

If the Master Password is enabled on one device, it needs to be enabled on all devices connected to a Sync account.

Type about:sync-log in the URL bar and hit Enter. Do you have any error reports on the devices where Logins sync isn't working?

The text of the log can be posted here: https://pastebin.mozilla.org/ Make sure you select "a month" for data retention; "a day" is the default.

Then provide the resultant URL (after posting) here so a Sync support person can review those logs - latest per device. Might take a few days to get a knowledgeable response here. '

"A Secure Connection Failed error page will include a description of the error and a Try Again button. There is no option to add a security exception to bypass this type of error."

This (There is no option) means that I have to quit using Firefox?

my connection to the internet drops and I receive a message that says "No Internet Connection". This happens frequently at home, and at work and has been going on for months. I will generally close Firefox and reopen, then it says that Firefox is still running and do I want to close and I click yes. I still have a good signal in every case. It mostly happens when I have my email open and another site, like banking, subschool, or doing some type of research. I use chrome for some apps, but I don't like using it but they don't work in Firefox, and I never get a crash notice. I have checked for updates for WIndows 10, ZoneAlarm, Firefox, and drivers and everything is up to date. Other than that I can't find any more information or posts on this. Please help Ronald Fisk

I had to download Chrome to get back on the net. I'm rolling back to an earlier version and turning off the updates. Updates usually do more harm than good, and I've been using these browsers since Netscape 2.

I have been a loyal Firefox user for many many years. I lost count. I have gone so far as to uninstall Edge from my computer. BUTTTTTTTTTTTTT. Your recent updates are leading me to switch over to Chrome. With your recent updates, I now have to run Firefox in trouble shooting mode in order to be able to access and make my payments in my PayPal account. It now completely messes up my PayPal screen. And, most recently, now I have to click to make a YouTube video play on initial launch. Each time I open a new video, it pauses and I have too click on it to make it play. AND, don't tell me to go check and set the "autoplay" settings. THAT DOES NOT work. So until you guys can show me how to revert back to a previous version of Firefox that worked.. I AM SWITCHING OVER TO CHROME. In my opinion... I consider what you have recently done to me is a VIRUS.. you broke something that worked.. Especially my PayPal stuff
