Let’s say I use Manage Bookmarks to rearrange my bookmarks into different folders & also delete a lot of old bookmarks on my desktop computer. Are all the changes I just made immediately reflected in my Mozilla account if Sync is on? My (vague) understanding is that the Sync configuration in my Mozilla account acts as a master configuration; does that mean the Mozilla account configuration will overwrite the configuration on my laptop when it Syncs? Or will the laptop’s configuration instead be combined with the desktop’s configuration in the Mozilla account, thereby creating duplicate bookmarks in different folders & recreating all the old bookmarks I so painstakingly removed?

I have an external drive that for compatibility reasons is formatted as NTFS. All other applications don't have compatibility issues, but having the Thunderbird profile folder be stored on the NTFS breaks multiple things, saved passwords get reprompted every time, adding a new account does not make the account show up etc.

How fix?

I am trying to use the Bing homepage for their daily images. When I open Fire Fox, the Bing homepage comes up but has a news popup along the bottom of the screen. I have unchecked the option for the "news and interests" from the 3 bar menu on the upper right and it goes away. But, when I open Firefox again, the news popup comes back up. Anyone have any idea how to fix this? This did not used to happen before I had to reinstall Firefox due to problems I was having. Thanks for any help.

Trying to get to the "http://localhost:631" website from my Ubuntu 22.04, but always get "can not connect". What is going on? What do I need to do to fix this? I have tried to add this website to the exception list but it changes the http to https.

When opening Firefox, the window shows a white screen indefinitely, and the cursor shows loading whenever it is held above it. During this period, the desktop and taskbar of my computer freeze completely. There are no reactions to hovering my mouse over taskbar icons, clicking anywhere results in a loading cursor, and other windows are no longer usable either. This carries over through multiple desktops and monitor extensions. This is resolved with a couple presses of the Windows key on my keyboard, which after a couple of seconds, turns the entire screen black apart from the Firefox window and reloads the desktop and taskbar. Doing this makes them usable again, but when attempting to close, click and drag, or manage tabs on the window, all tabs on the window freeze, as well as the desktop and taskbar once again. This can be resolved with the Windows key just as before, but it is disruptive to general computer workflow. What's more, certain other application windows open on the screen, including the file explorer, will close between refreshes, making work with multiple windows more difficult.

I am running Firefox 128.0.3 (64 bit) on a Windows 11 computer. This issue began yesterday (August 2, 2024), but it supposedly fixed itself that afternoon and came back this morning. I run Firefox with automatic updates, so I am unsure if this correlates with a software update. Removing the add-ons I used did not resolve the issue, and I use three extensions that were downloaded months ago with zero detrimental effects. I have data for bookmarks and favorites transferred from my Google Chrome browser, which I've dropped in favor of Firefox roughly 6 months ago with no issues.

I have already tried Mozilla's recommended troubleshooting methods in order to resolve this issue permanently. I have restarted my computer multiple times. I cleared my browser history, cookies, and data, uninstalled and re-installed Firefox, and refreshed Firefox from the troubleshooting information page. All to no effect.

Whenever I click my mouse somewhere blank on a webpage firefox will always select some text/image despite being nowhere close to it. This does not happen to me on chrome.

Having an issue where Youtube live streams works for around 30 seconds and then "Something went wrong" error happens and the stream stops. I've tried Troubleshooting Mode and it continues to happen.

Oddly, using a private browsing window fixes it. I figured that may mean that I should clear my cache/cookies but that didn't fix it for normal browsing. From my testing it doesn't appear to be extension related because I've tried a private browsing session with all of my extensions allowed in private and the stream was steady.

Disabling Hardware Acceleration didn't do it either.

I'm on Windows 10. Firefox Version - 128.0.3 Build ID - 20240725162350

If there are any other steps I can take to troubleshoot, please let me know.
