I just tried to import my bookmarks from an HTML file. In the Bookmarks => Manage bookmarks => Import and backup => Import Bookmarks from HTML, after selecting the HTML file and then clicking "Close", nothing happens.

If I click on Bookmarks again, and look under import bookmarks, nothing shows up.

How do I get my book,arks to import from the HTML file, then have the bookmark menu appear as a drop down menu on my Firefox tool bar?

Not at all sure what topic category applies.

For some time, I have been trying to find my Bookmarks Menu without having any luck even finding its name. I knew it was there as I had seen it inadvertently once or twice, but was as far as I got. Now that I have at last found the name and even seen it in the bookmarks area, where I was able to rearrange the folders in alphabetic order.

Here is a link telling how to put its icon on the bar, which I cannot do as it is not there. I have scanned the list of installable icons to no avail. What can I do to find the miscreant icon?

I use Protonmail - a web-based email app. They do not provide spellchecking, but say that the Firefox spellchecker should work in their email composer (it used to work so for me!) but, despite having Settings/General/Spellchecker ticked, and a dictionary (GB) selected (and, I see, the spellchecker working in this dialogue box) it is not working in the Protonmail composer.

Help!!

Major lag on the first start of firefox on a session, after that it runs well

I first noticed this issue on "Zen Browser" which is based on firefox source code, but some time after i re-installed Firefox and noticed the issue was on Firefox, like, literally the same lag that happened on Zen was happening on Firefox. I tried deleting the .mozilla(.zen for Zen) and still nothing. i did noticed some things:

- When i start Firefox on safe mode, the lag doesn't happen
- On my brother user on the PC, the lag simply didn't happen
- When the lag is happening, the disk reading goes REALLY high: 

I'll put a screenshot of the disk reading usage, even if it's on Zen executable, remember that the same issue is also happening on Firefox (and was where i noticed the disk usage thing)

I am trying hard to keep with Firefox and trying to avoid being sucked into Google Chrome. However am finding increasing problems with Firefox. I am am sure I have the latest Firefox download but not able to download my Barclaycard statements. I can see my recent transactions so have access to the Barclaycard website but cant download my statements which I can do on Google Chrome and was able to do on Firefox up until this month!

The only odd thing is in the past I have had to authorise via the app which it tells me to use but doesn't ask me to actually do it and goes straight into my account.

Barclaycard say the problem is with Firefox and they are not in anyway restricting access via Firefox.

Thoughts? Ian

I'm putting off upgrading Linux as I have many hundreds of undocumented addons which will be lost and would take forever to attempt to remember how to re-install.

(in fact I might just switch to macos and try using homebrew).

It seems very harsh that upgrading Firefox has been prevented by linux mint for years now.

Yes Homebrew is perhaps the way forward! Life would be easier with just one O/S as I need Macos anyway for adobe lightroom.

It certainly appears they have, with the left and right padding growing wider. In fact, they both look about twice the size of the top and bottom padding, whereas before I remember them as being about equal. The change was immediately apparent with my home page!

Any particular reason for this?
