I changed pwd for my firefox acc 2-3 month ago and after it I was logged in only on my laptop. One week ago I changed OS on my laptop and forgot that while U changed pwd U also logged off from all devices. So I cant reach my acc from my 2nd laptop and my phone cause I don't remember pwd. I only remember pwd what was before that one. So I restore it. And now I haven't my pwds, bookmarks, extensions etc. What I can do now? Can I restore all this things?

Saved password in setting let you log into Firefox fox but reject the password in setting

When I log into my Firefox account from my tablet it let me use the password to log in. But when I want to update it add a password that saved I can't use the same password to log into my saved password.. This problem is with my Samsung A7 lite tablet. The same password work fine in my cell. I even tried to rest the password still does let me get into the password that saved thru setting. I even tried to uninstall fire fox no changed. I first just clear cache in Firefox they setting under the app in the tablet. I tried that first. Nothing work to get me to see my saved password. Resetting nor changing my password does not work either. This make no sense. It let me log into the same password on my cell phone but reject that password when I want to add a password or see a password saved. There seem to be no way to get my saved password to work when I go setting. Than I touch screen for saved password than ask for password but reject the same password I used to log into the account on my tablet

Yet my other tablet work fine to log into account . Review what I tried 1  Clear all setting under settings on device than clear cache etc. second test password. 2nd removed fire fox and reinstalled with same password that I logged into. Than went to setting in Firefox ask to see my saved passwords. But in the same password to see the saved password but it reject that password. 3rd  Also tried to rest password that failed toounder setting that ask for a password to see my saved passwords.

I need to become more competent with Thunderbird functionality. I see manua.ls has a manual I can download. Do you have experience with that? I find searching the knowledge base at Thunderbird difficult to use - my incompetence, I'm sure! Is there a tutorial that would teach me the basics? I've been using Thunderbird for about 20 years and it's vital to my business. I've had techs screw it up a couple of times. I think I need to be my own repairman. Any direction you can give me will be greatly appreciated. Thanks much!

Switching to Firefox ESR with Microsoft Intune - Need Help with Password and Bookmark Sync Without Mozilla Accounts

Hello Mozilla Community,

I am an administrator in a company where we currently use Microsoft Intune for software distribution. We are currently deploying Firefox 76.0, which automatically updates itself and is no longer at version 76.0. However, we are planning to switch to the Firefox ESR version.

In our organization, we are not allowed to use Mozilla accounts for syncing passwords and bookmarks due to internal policies. Our goal is to make this transition as seamless as possible for our users, with as much automation as possible, while still ensuring that they can sync their passwords and bookmarks effectively without relying on Mozilla accounts.

Is there a way to achieve this, perhaps through a third-party tool or another method that integrates well with Intune and respects our privacy requirements?

Any guidance or suggestions to make this process smooth and user-friendly would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you in advance for your help.

HelIo the Firefox team, I use Mackbook Pro, while Firefox is my favorite browser. Recently, I encounter an unpleasant and annoying SPONTANEOUS zoom-in and out in pages. It makes browsing impossible and prompts me to go for another browser. May it be a virus? How to solve this? It's really intolerable. Thank you in advance. Yigal.

For the past couple of months, every time I boot up my computer and launch Thunderbird I get the attached error messages for each of my email accounts (2 Hotmail and one Outlook)

Repeatedly clicking "retry" often results in success but sometimes I get the second message indicating the server has disconnected. Usually, after a few minutes things settle down, the messages come through and all is well but it is a nuisance. I would switch to using Outlook but it cannot send multiple emails which I periodically need to do and I don't want to encourage Microsoft's near monopoly of computer technology.

I have tried accepting coookies as advised elsewhere in here and tried turning on O Oath as my authentication method but this just got me another error message saying this authentication "was not supported on this platform" (whatever that means??) Anyway, I reverted to using "simple password" which does eventually work.

I looked at 2 factor authentication but that proved to be impossible to understand and, in any case, I rarely carry a 'phone with me and do not want to clutter my 'phone up with more apps. I use 2 factor authentication on a lot of my confidential accounts and none of these were as complicated to set up as this one and certainly did not invole scanning QR codes and installing special apps.

Will this bug be fixed by more updates to Thunderbird or is there some other way of solving this problem.
