I've been a loyal user of Firefox for many years, but recent problems have cause me to question that loyalty. I posted previously that the Alarm.com web site does NOT appear correctly AFTER login (NOT BEFORE login). NONE of the suggestions that were given helped. Now I see that images don't appear on a matchmaking site I go to, either on the site itself or images from the site in Outlook web (ie using Firefox) email. It never used to be this way. I never had to worry about it. I've made no changes to Firefox that I'm aware of that would cause this change in behavior. WHY is this happening? I tried everything but creating a new Firefox profile suggested in this link:

NOTHING works. I don't get it. Images show with no trouble in Edge. So does Alarm.com.

Dear Team,

I hope this message finds you well.

I am experiencing a significant slowdown in email synchronization in Thunderbird. Emails take a noticeably long time to appear after clicking, and the overall syncing process is extremely slow across all folders.

The problem began on Friday, December 6th, following my use of the "Repair" button on the Inbox (8.9GB) and Sent (10.7GB) folders. After initiating the repair for the Sent folder, synchronization across all folders (Inbox, Sent, Spam, etc.) slowed down considerably.

Already done: Checked "All Mail" on Google IMAP: The folder does not appear in IMAP. Troubleshoot Mode: Attempted, but it did not resolve the issue. Reinstalled Thunderbird: Uninstalled and reinstalled Thunderbird on my Mac, but the problem persists.

The issue seems isolated to Thunderbird and does not impact my Mac’s overall performance, memory usage, or speed. The synchronization delay affects only Thunderbird, while other applications function normally. I would greatly appreciate your guidance on how to resolve this issue and restore normal synchronization performance.

Thank you in advance for your support!

I have Firefox in my laptop and also mobile phone I was tidying them up last night and they were all on both devices. This morning the most recent bookmarks are missing from both. I tried to "restore" but this still does not bring back my recent bookmarks. Is there any way I can recover them. Many thanks

I have the last Firefox version and am trying to add extensions (e.g. video download helper). When I click on Add to Firefox, it works at loading the extension, but without any success. The blue dot in the gray square dances and dances and dances.... Thanks !!

I would like to customize the menu so favorite items are on the first menu page. The new simplified menu is less convenient when the option I use most – Share – is now on a secondary menu page.

On my iPad I tried adding a website I got an error message saying I have to have a device enabled to screw fire fox I have Firefox on my iPhone I’m being to hate Firefox , why do I have to put my default email in every time when using Firefox ??

TB started giving the message, "Your computer must be restarted to complete a previous upgrade of Thunderbird. Do you want to reboot now? (Yes)(No)" I rebooted. Now everytime I try to launch TB I get the same message. Reboots don't solve it. TB won't launch. I suspect a TB 15 upgrade bug. How do I get TB to launch? If I do an uninstall, will I lose my address book(s) & subfolders?

On YouTube tabs, if Firefox memory usage starts climb (ie. more than 3-4 tabs active), there are janks for a few seconds preventing me from interacting with the YouTube tab. This jank does not happen with other tabs (can even interact normally with other tabs while the YT tab is janking). Attached is a profiler report.

I am trying for days to get my Yahoo! email to stay signed in on my desktop using Firefox. It has been fine for years, but last week I had to clear cookies and history to solve a completely different problem and now I have this problem instead. I have read articles, searched the web, and I am trying to find "options, set yahoo as my email" (or something like that I read) but I cannot find it in yahoo OR Firefox. please Help! thanks in advance, but hurry.

I have been facing a problem with custom images of home page shortcuts. Whenever my laptop shuts down and Firefox was open at that time, then upon restarting, Firefox recovers the websites that were open before shutting down. However, in this process, the shortcuts do not load the custom images at all - they are all blank. I created a new profile and started everything from scratch then also the issue was there. Is there any solution to this, or is there any issue that might be from my end?

In the year 2024, firefox still does not allow a simple way to set any URL you would like as the new tab url (without an extension).

Users were previously able to use extensions like NewTab override to have a relatively seamless experience changing their new tab page. However after certain changes, these said extensions can no longer set your new tab page to a local file, and can also no longer clear and focus the address bar.

I am simply requesting a feature within firefox to set a custom new tab page, without having to create any external configs, or without using any extensions. This basic feature has been available in chromium browsers for years, and firefox already includes a feature just like this for the "Homepage and new windows" setting, where it allows you to input a custom URL to a local file or site to put it as your homepage. However, this same setting for some odd reason does not exist for the "new tabs" option. Why is this?

As of now, I've had to use a manual override along the lines of this:

``` // shenanigans for setting a different new tab page const { classes: Cc, interfaces: Ci, utils: Cu } = Components; const { AboutNewTab } = Cu.import("resource:///modules/AboutNewTab.jsm", {}); // path to new tab can be a url or file const newTabURL = "file:///home/faaris/.local/packages/startpage/fazzi/index.html"; // set the new tab URL AboutNewTab.newTabURL = newTabURL; ```

this should not be needed. Having to modify files in system protected folders should not be needed for such a simple option.

Hello, I have all of my bookmarks organized in folders but now all of those folders are on the bottom instead of the top in the menus.

I used to be able to move them around by dragging them but now I can't move them back to the top.

Thanks 😊

Android 14 firefox 133.0.3 (Build #2016060959), hg-7ed49fe90e84+ GV: 133.0.3-20241209150345 AS: 133.0

I'm running Firefox 122.0.1 on a Windows 10 desktop PC, with a profile which includes a userChrome.css file which makes several layout and cosmetic changes.

I also have a laptop (also Windows 10) which has an old Firefox 97.0.1 installation, and I'd like to make the same changes on this machine which I'm used to on the main computer. I copied my desktop profile to the laptop, to the same directory as its present profile, but when I rebooted Firefox the transferred profile wasn't recognised.

While doing the transfer I received error messages about some of the folders: Destination path too long. This despite the fact that the registry flag to accept extended paths is set to 1. I had to skip several folders in order to complete the transfer.

Could this be the reason why the new profile isn't being picked up? Or is it because the two Firefoxes are of different versions?

I'd be grateful for any thoughts. Many thanks.

So I'm in the process of switching to Firefox again now that native vertical tabs are an option. I'd like to be able to drag maximized windows by just flicking my mouse to the top anywhere and dragging, but it won't allow me unless "Menu Bar" or "Title Bar" is enabled. I'd rather not enable either as I like how it looks without them...

I did manage to add the space I wanted by adding this to the "userChrome.css" file:

1. nav-bar {

margin-top: 15px !important; }

but it seems to only be cosmetic and won't allow me to use it for dragging the window...
