I have 6 folders in my bookmark tree, only 3 appear in my bookmark drop down when saving a bookmark. So I'm constantly dragging a bookmark into one of the folders that don't appear if I want to save it outside of the 3 that do appear. How do I get the bookmark tree to list the missing three folders?

Subject: Assistance Required for Frequent Firefox Crashes on Ubuntu

Dear Developer Team,

I am facing persistent issues with Firefox crashing on my Ubuntu PC, and the problem has been ongoing for the past 40–50 days. Despite multiple attempts at troubleshooting—including uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox, clearing all caches, and other measures—the issue remains unresolved.

I’ve noticed that Firefox works for a few days after reinstallation, but then problems begin to surface, such as a half-screen display. Eventually, after restarting the PC, the browser starts crashing again.

Could you please investigate this matter urgently and provide a resolution? Additionally, I would appreciate it if you could clarify whether this might be related to a RAM issue or some other underlying cause.

Looking forward to your assistance.

Best regards, zimmi

I had to do a reinstall of windows and I did a sync just before. However, I did not remember the firefox account password. I did a Forget Password at sign and now all synced data, bookmarks, saved passwords are not coming up. Can I recover the old data?

I extracted what you need, I think. So I've moved the description to the bottom.

- If the solution requires steps I'd appreciate them. 
- Yes, I tried ' personalize your computer'.
- Yes, I've tried all sorts of things.
- The problems may be from switching to Windows 11
- I can't figure out 11's logic about what goes where.
  

1) Where is my own wallpaper and how do I change them? 2) Where are my themes; how do I change them?

- I was there once but couldn't find it again. And just spent a long time downloading themes

3) Where is the eye saver, that turns on or off on your set times. 4) The search bar is and always remains pink-orange. Has Microsoft decided we're so stupid we can't find it without their help. How do I change that fucking orange-peach search bar?? 4.1) It bothers me so much I actually want to write that last sentence all in caps It is the most annoying thing about switching to 11.

Wait, you don't control the wallpaper. But if you happen to know, could you tell me?

Description The search bar is an ugly orange, I can't find my new themes, I can't find my wallpaper (which may be the reason there's a pastel line at the bottom - I was tired.) I was hoping the orange search bar was because of the eye saver but clearly that isn't it - I woke up at three. And where is the eye saver anyway?

I can't find my themes. Some for fun, playing with all of them would be a good time waster. This morning I got a lot of themes and want to have a fun time waster playing with them. But it's not just the fun. I need Firefox to a certain look/feel when working.

There's a lot more but these do need to be done and I'm hoping it will help learn the logic. [I just deleted a lot of anger before writing that.]

The search bar is an ugly sort of pale orange. I LOATH that. No matter what I do it won't go away. Which is why I was waiting for the eye saver switch. Maybe Windows 11 decided we're so incompetent we couldn't ourselves. Bur the rest should be easy, obvious, and I dislike people having to answer stupid questions. I just can't follow 11's logic to get me where I need to be. I'm pretty savvy, and exhausted from trying. I'll figure out the rest of this if I have to but **get rid of it** I actually want to write that in all caps but it would be rude. It is so distracting it's difficult to see other things up there. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Thank you for you time; I volunteer as well. And at least you don't have to ask the truly simple: "Okay, check to see if your computer is plugged in." Back in the day we really did have to ask once in a while: it was serous trouble-shooting. Of course it became a catch phrase, both fun and work. "have you plugged in your computer?

at HTTPS-Only option of Privacy & Security section, after selected "Don't enable HTTPS-only mode", then at address bar input "http://192.168.1.27/cgi-bin/my-cgi", the FireFox immeditely switched the URL to the HTTPS mode such as "https://192.168.1.27/cgi-bin/my-cgi" that caused the failure for connecting to the intended URL. Please help to identify the problem and the steps for solving the problem. Thanks

When my Firefox crashed today, I chose to restore it rather than troubleshoot. When it was done, my bookmarks icon had disappeared. Yet when I go to the individual websites, I can see that each one is still bookmarked. How can I restore the icon that used to be in the toolbar at top? Thank you for any help you can give. I have been using Firefox for many years now and this is the first time I encountered this problem.

When i try to log in to Gyazo it goes to a web page that says

"Checking your browser before accessing gyazo.com ... Click here if you are not automatically redirected after 5 seconds."

I can log in via chrome and i can log in via firefox on my ipad. I looked at my malwarebytes and its not blocked there. So i know my acc is good. I know it will log in with firefox on my ipad. just not my Win11 Desktop Firefox.

I've been good about avoiding being hacked or having major problems. I'm on a Mac, with the latest update. I use 1Password. I check all the urls on questionable email. I use 2fa, and check for data briefs.

Firefox has built-in security. So does Apple. And Firefox has all sorts of extensions that provide security. Privacy Badger is from the EFF. I don't know if they all do the same thing or cover things not covered. The descriptions say they protect me, but how do I know? At times, I probably have overkill.

And this doesn't even address VPNs.

Searching for "Security" in extensions shows a list of about 2,000 extensions. "Privacy" returns a list of more than 2,600. I would think that if you were confident in your security, there wouldn't be so many, and/or you wouldn't list them. Do you have a gap that we need to find an extension to cover?]

There needs to be some consistency and clarity as to what you protect against and what they claim they protect against so we know which one we really need. It feels like buying a car and being told to go find our own tires in a vast warehouse, and then search for the gears we want, etc. When we get on a plane, we don't select our own seatbelts. If on a cruise ship, we don't choose our lifevests. If that were the case, no one would get on boats or planes. By letting us fend through thousands of security programs, you shift the responsibility to us. And very few of us have enough training or knowledge to do so.

I don't expect you to be perfect, but helping us through this maze would be great. I probably know more than the average person, but it feels that

I have done something to just one web site that has made the display so small that I cannot read it or see the pictures well at all for just that one web site. I was trying to print just a selection of the web page that included some words and pictures. I was having a hard time trying to only highlight what I wanted to print. In doing that, I kept trying to make my selection several times. Somehow, I have messed the settings up for just that one web site. All of the other web sites are unchanged. I printed the instructions regarding font size, but I do not want to make overall changes. The other web sites I go to are fine. I only want to get the display corrected for this one web site I use a lot. In trying to highlight what I wanted to print, I have messed up the display for that one web site. As I wrote above, I do not want to make an overall change that will affect all of the web sites I go to using Firefox.

Can you tell me what I may have done to cause this and how to correct it? I thank you for any help you can give me. I also apologize for the length of this. This problem is hard to explain.

THANK YOU!

i have used Firefox for over 10 years. i just recently updated my Firefox app on my Macbook after i deleted my Mozilla files. will i be able to recover my extensive Bookmarks?

I updated Firefox on my laptop today after not having used it for quite some time but I'd really like to go back to how Firefox was. I can't find all my old bookmark in a drop down list as before. All there is a bar with what seems to be the most visited and on the right 'Other Bookmarks' which are none of mine but a few sites that I have no interest in. I seem to have lost the the old menu bar or at least I don't know how to get it back. I need the web developer item. I really don't like this new version.

Certain items in the browser black out completely. For instance, when I open a google sheet; in the first 3 seconds, I can see the spreadsheet. Then, suddenly, it blacks out. The same is true when I try to open pdfs. I'll add screenshots.
