Firefox Community Forum

I provide IT support for an 80 year old friend. He uses Windows 7 and Firefox ESR. He has Firefox home as the home page. He had 3 rows of icons showing on Firefox homepage. However today the home page did not show any icons when Firefox was started. Since then about 10 websites have been visited but only 2 show on the home page (Settings Home Shortcuts [for sites saved or visited] is ticked with 3 rows specified. Saved bookmarks are still present as are the saved login credentials.

Any ideas as to why the home page 'lost' all the icons? Why are many of the visited sites not showing on the homepage and how can they be shown? Are there any criteria that apply before a visited website shows on the Firefox homepage?

Thanks for any advice.

Firefox logouts every website account that i logged in after i close and open the browser, I have been facing this issue since a month now. I have checked all the cookies, and other settings, they are all fine, still am unable to figure out where the issue is. This has become very frustrating lately, each and every time several of the website i have to login again and again. How to get this issue solved please?

I'm old, so having the "header" in my Private Search bar be in dark mode is very difficult. I've done searches on the subject and noted there are other people with visual challenges with the same issue.

I tried to go to Settings to change it, but it wouldn't let me change from "automatic" to "light mode". It was blocked!

Please help as I really, really prefer to do private searches for items relating to my medical issued. It is tough enough to be old, I don't need the whole internet gawking at searches for adult diapers, etc.

Thanks Haze Kompelin

I keep having trouble trying to play a video on YouTube. When I try and play a video on You Tube the video will simply not play or take forever to start playing. What can be done to fix the problem? Can someone help. Thank you.
