Objet : Perte de mes marque-pages après mise à jour de Firefox

Bonjour,

Après avoir installé une nouvelle version de Firefox, j’ai perdu tous mes marque-pages. J’ai tenté de les restaurer à partir des sauvegardes automatiques, mais cela n’a pas fonctionné.

Pourriez-vous m’aider à les récupérer ? Ces marque-pages sont essentiels pour mon usage quotidien de Firefox sachant que je les ai depuis plusieurs années

Merci par avance pour votre assistance.

Cordialement,

bold textSome problem about google and it blocks me from accessing https://en.susudiy.com/detail?id=1855800432773828610. Please note that I am signed into google so I have no idea what the problem is. it started today.

I am trying to attach a document to a online message being sent to a doctor by clicking 'attach' in message. What is happening is the screen that should be current file explorer showing all the files comes up showing the message 'firefox tag' with words 'file upload' and some old data. I do not understand why! Should I be deleting firefox and reloading ? CAn someone point me in right direction? Thank You, Perry

Hi good day i recently had my computer recovered and i tried signing back into my firefox but all my saved bookmarks, passwords etc arent saved or there. all synced data is missing. please im desperate. help

I don't know how to put it into words that well, but, it's as if my Firefox is just a clickable picture. If I try to use the search engine, it won't let me search, just put words in. If I try to open the menu, I can't, I can only click on the three lines with no pop-up. I can't use my addons, I can't even open another tab. I've tried opening other windows, restarting my computer, leaving it off for a while, and letting it stay on for hours, but it still isn't working. I tried running the updater, but It won't run. I tried running the maintenance service, same outcome. I don't want to delete Firefox because I fear that my account didn't probably sync some important things. I don't know what to do, this all happened after an update. Here's a video of what's going on: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PBpoHDn29gUp2mCK8I38V4oPwsXRwL0r/view?usp=sharing

I currently use Firefox on Windows with a policies.json located in "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\distribution" to ensure some required settings like a proxy server or SSO-portal as home page are in place, so users unable to read a documentation can still use the system. Now I need a browser without proxy for some applications. Currently I use a portable FF, but that's twice the work for updates. While I could just add another profile to the system FF and add a Icon, it still would use the global policies, as such locking me from changing certain values.

Is there any command line argument to ignore policies for this one session, specify another one or change the policy-file to ignore certain profile names?

normally I prefer Mozilla Firefox. but while the last ca.12 month minimum 2 by day I had a blackout and it was necessary to restart the computer. this is out of question - so I cannot work. Now I changed to Google Chrome but I am not content. There is no privacy. But to work with Mozilla is not longer interest because of the permanent restarts. What the matter?

I would like to be able to see a history list of ALL pages AS VISITED. For example, I will go to search engine and enter say "mozilla". I will click on an item that comes up, then back to the search. Click on another item in the search page, then back to the search, etc, etc. However the "history" in firefox does not list the visits back to the search engine, why not?? How can I get a complete history list of sites as visited? I need this so I can get back to the search where I was last when I visit one of those annoying sites such as "https://inacal.isolutions.iso.org/obp/ui#!iso:std:iso:8124:-1:ed-5:v1:en" which somehow blocks the back button. Actually that is another question, how can we stop sites from disabling the back button?

I'm having trouble with the current file Explorer being overlayed with a old file Explorer and a comment 'firefox symbol and word "file upload". This is happening while I'm trying to insert a document file into a online web page for a doctor. When I click the insert button on page that is when the Explorer is failing as noted above. Can someone help (send me a message on my e-mail *Email removed for privacy*@gmail.com if you can help/or update the help screen) Thanks Perry

On Mac OS, Cmd+? AKA Cmd+Shift+/ (on a US keyboard, at least, these are the same) is the standard shortcut to open a search bar inside the Help menu that searches through the commands in the menu. See attached screenshot.

As you can see, Firefox seems to bind it to "Get Help" (which is wrong for Mac OS).

Even worse, if you actually press Cmd+?, the Help menu flashes open and closed, and nothing happens. If you press Cmd+? twice in rapid succession, the "Get Help" command executes.

Is this a bug? Is there a way around this?

I am using Firefox 132.0.1 (aarch64) on Mac OS Sonoma 14.7.1.

For reference, https://superuser.com/questions/201798/how-do-i-make-cmd-work-the-native-way-with-firefox-for-mac claims this was fixed in Firefox 4 many years ago.

It's also possible to change the Mac OS shortcut in the Mac OS Settings -> Keyboard Shortcuts -> App Shortcuts, but I'd rather not.

After years of working without an issue, now whenever I open Firefox only some of the windows that were open when I shut down can be re-opened. Others are still listed in the "Window" menu, but clicking on them results in nothing. I also cannot delete them.

Help?

I am currently using Firefox v132.0 on a 2024 MacBoook Pro running Sonoma 14.6.

Thanks!

Hey Gang,

Sooooo, this is Driving Me Nuts!!!

Facebook.com is Redirecting to https://business.facebook.com/business/loginpage/ after I log in.

I have LITERALLY tried everything to fix this (and I'm no noob)!!!! It's not a Plugin or Extension, it's not related to HTTPS over DNS or any Browser Privacy Settings; not a Cookie or any Saved Site Setting, nor is it anything in My Antivirus or Windows 10 Registry (I purged EVERYTHING!). Nothing in the Hosts File, etc etc etc....

It was working until whatever update I did, and it works fine in Opera and Chrome as well as on another PC with a fully patched FF Browser.

Any Ideas or a Solution would be EPIC, I am ALMOST out of options and I'm all Grepped Out....TIA!

Thanks Gang!
