I-Firefox Community Forum

When my internet goes out and I check if it's back up by opening Firefox, if it's not back up then all the tabs from the previous session get lost if I close the browser. None of my other browsers do this; they all open with the previous session. This is a major issue, because I lose hours of work each time.

Hi After browsing a particular web site the Firefox browser froze with a single search control on the page and all items frozen. Tried to fix it through settings but no response. See attached screenshot. Refreshed Firefox from Control panel->Programs and Features->Uninstall->Refresh Firefox. This reset Firefox and fixed the problem however the Firefox browser lost several settings and add-ons which I had to manually fix. Glad it is mostly all working again!

I have Verizon FIOS and have been able to receive cable channels on my laptop until recently. Now I cannot access them without a sign-in which leads to some sort of error that I don't understand. Any help?

I am asking for this to be FIXED!!! I have ALWAYS had "Delete browser history opon close" set. However, now this latest update DISREGARDS MY SETTING and KEEPS my browser's history (shows in history tab now) ! I am OUTRAGED and ready to end my use of Firefox! So many of the recent updates IGNORE HOW and WHY we use Firefox.

I can't login to my AARP.org account using Firefox, even after clearing cookies and site data. However I can login using Chrome. What is the fix for this?

My PC is new and using Windows 11 Home Edition.

I tried Mozilla Monitor, logging in using my Mozilla account, but it wouldn't accept my UK address. It would only accept USA addresses. So I was not able to run the scan and reach the stage where you can delete the Monitor Account

Using the same personal data, but selecting a USA location, I ran the scan and then dieted the account successfully.

As I used the same email address for each attempt does the successful deletion on the second attempt mean all my Monitor accounts have been deleted?

ChatGPT indicates that this is the case but I would welcome further advice.

Hi, I have the settings of 'General > Startup > [checked] Open previous windows and tabs' on. Most of the time it works as expected, but there are several occurrences when all of the sudden all of my pinned tabs are gone. When this happened, I usually tried the 'Command + Shift + T' to restore them. Sometimes they came back, some other times, they don't.

Can you fix it?

It's starting to get really irritating because I can have >12 tabs pinned and it's troublesome to have to remember them all in case this happens again in the future.

Thanks!

this update is NOT my favorite too many things are missing or are revamped into something i do not like. for instance. i HATE the way the sidebar is compressed to the side, then takes up valuable space with NONSENSE that i do not want. the toolbar - HOLY CRAPOLA!! i hate the new toolbar. i want the old tool bar and side bar back. there is SOOOO MUCH about the new toolbar that i hate that i simply can not begin to express where to start.

after so many years using firefox and recommending it to my customers - ill have to look for another browser to use and recommend to others.. i hate this!!!!!!!!!

I have arthrytis in my hand, and trying to keep that narrow moving in and out bar on the right of the page or drop down like the tab menu, is agonizing. WHY NOT MAKE IT WIDER????

After the latest update, when I move a tab to the start of the line, it shrinks down to something unreadable. Before, it stayed the same size, with tabs all being the same size as each other, that size being dependent on how many tabs were open ONLY. How do I turn off this "Feature" ? I liked it the old way. I don't even know exactly what to look up to try to fix it.

I also hated tab groups, with my tabs suddenly moving around on me. I hate having to do research and maintenance every time I get an update. If this keeps happening, I may just stop updating or go to Chrome or something.

the new update erased all my bookmarks, extensions, and shortcuts. Why would an update do this? Maybe i missed it but was there a warning this was going to happen? I teach Chemistry at a local community college and have my student use firefox because of its pdf editor which is great.

I use a MAC. How do I delete unwanted email auto-fills. Some are old, some have typos...... Every time I fill in my email on a form I have to sift through several outdated emails

I want to delete just the recent searches or rather where it says duckduckgo suggestions, but I don't want to do it 1 by 1 (because that parts doable of google since it's 1 click on duckduckgo that differs) or just make it disappear but not delete. I just don't want them there.

Turning off "Show search suggestions" makes it disappear which isn't what I want. Is there a way to get rid of/ delete them in mass without just turning it off?

Hello, when I first switched from google chrome to Firefox I could not figure out how to create one browser with two profiles like I had with chrome. So I went to about:profiles and created two separate browsers not realizing you all had an option to create two profiles under one browser. I finally figured out how to have to profiles under one browser by going here https://www.tech2geek.net/how-to-use-the-new-updated-profile-manager-in-firefox-2025/#google_vignette but I can not figure out how to sync the google chrome profile that I had previously to this new profile under the same browser. How do I sync this? I hit sync and nothing changed. I am signed in and I can not figure out how to get the browser profile to sync with this new profile under one browser. I really hate how Firefox named both of these Profiles because it is extremely hard to explain this situation.

When on a web page, if I would like to share that page with someone I go to the top of FireFox browser window, top left corner, left click on File , go down to Email Link... and left click on it.

Previous to two days ago it always opened my Gmail client and prefilled my information, subject and URL of the page and then I typed in the recipient's address.

Now it no longer shows the same window, it does not show the sent from information. Also it is sending from my wife's email address, which is hidden.

When switching to full-screen mode in Firefox while watching a video, the cursor won't disappear automatically until you move it. This issue affects all players except the native Firefox player. The bug appeared in version 143 and higher (affects all builds, including stable, Beta, and Nightly). I've tested the issue by rolling back the browser to versions 140 and 142.0.1, and everything works fine. There's a thread about this issue on the Bugzilla forum. macOS versions Tahoe 26.0 and Sequoia 15.7 are currently running. I can't test on other systems.
