hi. i used only Firefox from Mozilla. can i delete this folder safetly? ~/library/application support/mozilla/native messaging host/com.apple.passwordmanager.json

I am experiencing the problem that my bookmark backup is not restored. I need to restore everything before Dec 24, 2024. If you can help me, this has never happened to me before. Thank you.

I am trying to export/import my book marks from one macOS computer to another (intel to Apple silicon), however, all of my imports and restore attempts fail. My last restore attempt failed with the following message: Firefox Unable to process the backup file. Any other suggestions?

I have several HP dc7900 desktops all running Firefox ESR 64 Bit. I am trying to take my windows "FAVORITES" list and add it to FireFox "BOOKMARKS" list. I've tried everything but can't seem to get there. I remember several years ago dealing with this issue on one of my other computers however, after a brain aneurysm and 2 major heart attacks, being 70 years old, my memory just doesn't exist anymore. If anyone knows the secrets to this task, you'll be my best friend forever! Thank you so much for your help. Please be detailed and list the steps 1......2......3.....4.......etc. I'm not that computer knowledgeable so the easier the better.

Does ‘Firefox’ automatically send extra ‘backup authentication code’ once I use up the current lot it sent?? If not, what does 1 do for extra extra ‘backup authentication codes’ ??

Lors de la dernière mise à jour de Firefox, j'ai retrouvé un dossier sur mon bureau appelé "anciennes données de Firefox" Faut-il garder ce dossier ou le mettre dans la corbeille? Merci de votre réponse

Sessionstore.jsonlz4 does not contain the current tabs, so where are they? After losing all of my tabs I copied the sessionstore-backups. They were quite large. Obviously they must contain my lost tabs. But now the current sessionstore.jsonlz4 has the very same large size. However, the lost tabs do not show up when Firefox is launched! And yet the few tabs – I’ve tried one, two, and three – that were open when Firefox is closed do show up. And the large size of each “new” sessionstore.jsonlz4 does not change at all! BTW I have tried inserting each one of the backups and nothing changes. The current tab or tabs shows up, but not the lost tabs. What is going on?

I reinstalled windows yesterday. When I installed firefox and signed it, everything was fine. However, this morning, it seems to have removed 80% of my bookmarks. When I try to restore from the bookmarks yesterday, it just gives me the ones that I have this morning. I had tons and tons of resource bookmarks for my work that would be almost impossible to re-find in some cases due to the current state of search engines. Is there any way to salvage them? It seems like sync believes they never existed, but it DID sync them yesterday??? Please help.

When my Mac got an automatic system upgrade to 15.1.1 I lost everything. I was able to recover all my files but I lost the foxfire bookmarks and bookmark bar. How can I recover them?

I had to re-install Windows and so I downloaded Firefox again and logged in to my account. I had sync turned on with bookmarks enabled but it wasn't syncing my bookmarks to my computer. I double checked that these sync settings were enabled on the Firefox app on my phone and I tried syncing multiple times. It transferred my passwords and other data but not my bookmarks. So I logged out of Firefox on my computer and phone, then logged back in and synced them together only to find that Firefox deleted all my bookmarks from my account completely (now they don't show up on my phone either). I looked at the forums and saw that they make separate profiles that I could access with about:profiles so I opened that and only saw 2 profiles, neither of which have my bookmarks. Is there a way to recover these since Firefox deleted them out of no where?

Hello, I just tried to import bookmarks to Firefox, however they're not appearing on the title bar?

I imported bookmarks to desktop Firefox 134.0.1 (aarch64) on raspberrypios - 1.0, but the title bar only shows Import Bookmarks... and the imported bookmarks are located in Library -> All Bookmarks -> Bookmarks Toolbar/Bookmarks Menu -> Mozilla Firefox -> Imported Bookmark.
