I always had notification of unread emails on the Dock of my Mac, but this does not work anymore. I am running 102.9.0 (64 bit). I have seen other posts on this, but no credible answers as to why it has ceased to function and what is being done to fix it?

I found that when starting Firefox on my school's WiFi, it starts up very slowly. Using `strace`, I found that it was taking it's sweet time making a DNS request to try to resolve my computer's `/etc/hostname`. After searching the Firefox source code with https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/, I found that the only occurrence of `/etc/hostname` was in [SandboxTestingChildTests.h](https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/security/sandbox/common/test/SandboxTestingChildTests.h). So I was wondering if it's possible to disable these tests when Firefox starts up.

I recently started using Firefox on both desktop (Windows PC) and mobile device (iPhone). I rely on my bookmark organization a lot. One thing I noticed is that there's discrepancy in name of "Other Bookmarks" (called "Unsorted Bookmarks" on iPhone) folder placed on desktop Bookmarks Bar (I only use Bookmarks bar and this folder for all my bookmarks).

Is it safe to assume this is merely a temporary and cosmetic discrepancy and this folder will be renamed to "Other Bookmarks" on iPhone too? Or does it have some special properties? Last thing I want is Firefox unsorting my carefully sorted bookmarks...

I'd really like keep one set of synced bookmarks between all my devices and accessible completely from Bookmarks bar on desktop. Is this OK thing to do?

Specifically, I am trying to pull up a web-site. It is called - http://pi-star/

Can someone help me with the right settings.

Plus, this works on another computer, but not this one.

The IP address I am seeking is wlan0:10.0.0.100

Please contact me if you can help. Thank you. Rick

Matt:

Your answer came from a no-reply address, so I'm hoping you will get this.

The misclassified email is greyed out in my Junk folder. It is not red.

Hi

I have deleted, uninstalled and re-set up Thunderbird, following my earlier question of Password checking for 10 hours. I removed the password and the account set up. When I type in the password it does not work although it works through my browser window with that password.

Can anyone help please?

Hello. Recently, it is in the Firefox browser that logins (nicknames) disappear from all pages. From inbox, facebook and others. Previously, if any nickname disappeared, then if you entered it again, it was saved. I'm not talking here about saving the auto-completion of the nickname and password. Only about the nickname (login). I don't want to save passwords on all pages. On google chrome everithing it's ok. Nicknames not disappeared. Only nicknames (logins) are stored there. Until recently, firefox was also preserved. Please fix this issue. I am already tired of writing all the nicknames every time. Again, again and again.

I am very concerned with the inability now to add a graphic to an email. This stopped working. The "OK" button is there until I choose a file then it disappears. Why is this?

Hello,

I hope this is the right place to post about this issue.

Just installed Thunderbird Beta 112.0b3 (64-bit) a couple of days ago, getting the feel of this one and doing OK, but found an issue.

Buttons (screenshot supplied) are not working (not taking me anywhere) except for the calendar one, which works OK

Any feedback or instructions to correct this would be appreciated.

HI FIREFOX! Many websites are not readable. I can see these correctly in Safari. I tried getting the latest Firefox updates. It did not fix the issues. Bizarrely, I can paste into another application and read the gobblity gook. So I think it is just a font issue. I really do not want to go back to Safari. Poshmark and Fedex are the two websites I experienced issues with today. Fedex would not interact properly with Firefox but I could find my tracking information on Safari. I have had the problem previously but did not have time to look into it that day. 16" Macbook Max M1 running Monterey

Three days ago Firefox froze and wouldn't allow me to do anything. I quit and then Firefox would not open. Went back to Safari and download the latest version of Firefox, and installed it. It started by saying that Firefox was already running (it wasn't) so I forced it to quit. Installed and asked it to replace the existing version. Then I tried to run it and it told me that it was already running!!!

Short of deleting the whole application and starting again - losing bookmarks, passwords, etc. - what else can I do?

/edit: moved thread from Firefox for iOS (for iPhone/iPad) to Firefox as this both sounds like desktop version and you put in "Mac Ventura v13" in system details on right so you have macOS.

I have a Substack newsletter and am trying to record audio for a voice-over of a post/article. For some strange reason, even though I have it set to Allow that website to have access to my Built-In microphone, I get a pop-up error window "Unable to setup microphone!" when I try to record. It's simply refusing to acknowledge the Permission setting.

What's strange is that I *am* able to record a video and within that video, the audio IS recorded, so Firefox is allowing access to my camera AND my Built-In microphone when recording a video. The url is *exactly* the same for Camera Permissions and Microphone Permissions in Firefox Settings. Weird, right?

It is ONLY when I try to record a voice-over (audio ONLY) that it won't allow me to do so. I have to switch to Safari. I'd like to stay on Firefox and not have to switch back and forth. Any ideas how to fix this? I've cleared my cache, restarted my iMac, removed website from Permissions then put it back on.

Firefox is up-to-date: 111.0.1 (64-bit) MacOS Big Sur Version 11.7.4 (iMac)

Should I uninstall Firefox then re-install it? And, if so, will it keep my Bookmarks, Toolbar sites, info, etc? I read some instructions for Windows PC, but couldn't find anything re: a Mac re-install or "Clean Re-Install" for iMacs. Thanks in advance for any help!

I repeatedly been hacked over and over through chrome chrome and Google accounts my passwords have been robbed of me through my primary email account which had both my passwords and yes most of them were like cuz I couldn't remember so so many of them and I no longer have access to why primary account until 24 hours or 48 hours and I know that I'm putting in the right code it keeps sending this error and gives me only multiple not multiple choices on recovery and my phone has since died services since ended and I can't access that phone anymore because I do not want that carrier provider anymore and that's the delivery of laundry because information has been stolen and money has been taken out of mine unauthorized and I'm still having problems with my banking trying to prove my identity because I have to wait to have the US postal mail get the proper documents that because I can't access my primary email which was the one that is shut down I am waiting word on that from Google to Windows verified it's me which I know that her verifies me nonetheless this is going to cost me nothing but problems with Google and I regret to have to put such a bad light on Google because they have been good at a certain aspect but also I've been dealing with Google I've had nothing but hacking incidents because my information has been stolen that I have written down or I was robbed and my phone will take it and they had access to my Google accounts I just want to know how I can recover my problem email so that I can change my phone numbers which I don't have one except it takes free number and I've already used the father to make minutes on that so I basically with or without Wi-Fi

In about:config I have set "geo.enabled" to false. -> www.google.com still displays the content in my language, darn.

I went went back to about:config and marked "only show modified preferences" -> to my surprise not only "geo.enabled 1" was displayed but also "permissions.default.geo 2" (though I never touched that one - so I thought they must be linked somehow)

I was curious and reverted "permissions.default.geo" back to default -> now it is set to "0" -> but "geo.enable" is still on "false" (so I am not sure anymore if they are really linked together - which doesnt make sense to me)

Now I don't know if I should leave "permissions.default.geo" on "2" how I found it, or on "0" which is the default. That's why I come here to ask:

==> What are the three states of "permissions.default.geo [0/1/2]" doing and how is it interacting with "geo.enable"?

I just reinstalled Thunderbird but all my old adresses (email contacts) are lost. Where to find them so I can import them. Also the calender details were not updated ... what to do ?

Hope somebody can help with this.
