There used to be a way to add a web site as a shortcut to the Home page by dragging the link and dropping it somewhere. Those instructions seem to have disappeared. One of the sites I had pinned to the Home page has changed. I can remove the old link (tile), but how do I add the new link as a tile? The help articles no longer provide any information about how to do this. Just "pinning' the page adds it to the toolbar, where I don't want it, but does not add it to the Home page. Do I have to just close and open that site a bunch of times in order to get it to appear???? There should be a more sensible way.

I have two instances of two different profiles (lets call them profile A and profile B) of Firefox running simultaneously. When I click on a link in another application (for example a link in Thunderbird) the Firefox instance I started last will open up the link. This can be profile A or profile B, whichever I started later. However, I would like links to be open in the instance of profile A at all times. How can I do this without making sure profile A is started after profile B? Previously I could achieve this using the -no-remote command line option. This option has been removed from the latest Firefox version.

I have had problems with virus programs and repairs. First I got blue screen took it to Best Buy they totally screwed it up. When I got it back they lost my D drive and totally changed the personally of the computer. I could not longer access Firefox with the code and they lost all my bookmarks. I managed to get some of the bookmarks with an older version of Firefox however, I want to use a newer version but apparently I can't take my bookmarks with me in addition I have an old Firefox file on my C drive but can't copy bookmarks without losing the bookmarks I already have installed. To try and put it simply, I want to go to new version of Firefox and take both sets of my bookmarks

Another question about FireFox. I believe I have everything set correctly, please see attachment, but FireFox is not asking me to save my sign in credentials for my Apple account. It was working two days ago when I had to count on it remembering those credentials from over 2 years ago in order to change my password. After changing it I have signed in a few times to get it to remember my new password but it isn't asking me. Any idea why and how I can correct it?

As a hardcore Firefox fan, I've recently noticed an issue with video playback on Facebook. When I play a video on Facebook, it freezes after a few seconds, but the audio continues playing. The same issue occurs on YouTube as well. I already have H264ify installed and have tried all the solutions available on the internet. What should I do?

Here are my specifications: Firefox 132.0.2, Windows 10 (64-bit), 8 GB RAM.

"Reopen last closed tab or window" function (Ctrl+Shift+T) does not seem to be remembering closed tabs any more.

Normally, if I were to close a tab while using a regular Firefox window, I could use the Ctrl+Shift+T hotkey to bring that tab back again. However, if I do so right now (for example, Wikipedia's Mozilla article), I will not bring that page back but instead an older, longer-closed tab from some days ago. I can keep trying to close and reopen tabs, or just keep reopening tabs, and I will continue to dig up older and older tabs from longer and longer ago.

Is this a known issue, what might have changed that behavior, and how do I restore the expected functionality of tabs correctly being reopened in the reverse order that they were closed?

Hi ! I am using the latest firefox on win11 (latest updates). Since approx 2-3 days whenever I try to comment on youtube or edit an existing comment I cannot see what I am typing. I can still type and commit, the comment will appear and I it will contain what I typed. But when doing it initially it is invisble to me. If I reply to a comment I can see what I type.


Below 1st image shows a comment box I am actively typing in. Everything is invisible. 2nd image shows when I open a reply, you can clearly see the prompt and when I start typing it shows my input
