Hello

For a while I have been selecting wall street journal articles and then clicking "listen".

A few weeks ago this stopped working on one computer a fairly new Lenovo running Windows 11. Currently running firefox 133.0.3. When I click "listen" on any article, nothing happens. Clicking "listen" on another Windows-11 computer on the same article does work, so apparently something is wrong with the settings on this one computer. Any suggestions please?

thanks

Ben

Diminishing performance (increasing lag) the longer Firefox 133 is open

I believe this problem began in 133. I've noticed that if FF is open for a few hours, it starts to develop a very noticeable input lag. For example, if I'm watching a YouTube video and hit an arrow key to advance the video, there will be a couple of seconds before the browser registers the key press. It behaves like a high CPU issue but I do not detect high CPU usage when this is happening. Restarting the browser resolves the issue for a few hours.

This is happening on Windows 11 as well as on a Mac running Sonoma.

I've used FF for years. The last year, it does not function correctly on about 20% of sites. I suggest focusing on making it compatible, rather than requiring sites that are perfectly coded. I may have to drop FF soon.

When I pull upwards on the bottom of my screen to scroll between/close apps while in landscape mode (such as watching a video or playing an app), if Firefox is open it will show me a preview of a video that I watched a while ago (and in a private browser, as I do most of my internet usage in the private browser). Why is it doing this? I've since watched other videos, and yet it still shows the preview of a video from several weeks, if not months ago. I'd like it to not do this. It's a bit annoying seeing this glitch (or occurrence, however it may be categorized) so often when I'm long since watched other things. It's only occurring when in landscape mode as well.

Every so often for the past few days this "unfinished" program window has appeared on my pc on top of a normal Firefox window (see attached png). Does this have something to do with Firefox? I think the same thing appears when I first open Firefox, then it gets "filled in" and appears as a normal Firefox window. I am running Firefox 133.0.3 (64-bit) on Windows 10 Pro Version 22H2 build 19045.5247 Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.19060.1000.0.

Thunderbird on my wife's windows 10 pc opens but hangs trying to communicate with ATT/Yahoo server. When none of the obvious troubleshooting steps helped, I thought the Profile might be corrupted. I recovered only the 2 day-old Profile folder from my Retrospect backup set, renamed the current Profile folder, and pasted the older Profile in its place. Thunderbird then started, logged into the server, and downloaded emails. However, nothing about Firefox looked familiar - no the local options/folders, etc. were there. How do I get the original Thunderbird look and feel back for her (very important)?

Hey,

I am running a new Mac and when I am composing an email and click attachments, the Mac finder (file system) window pops up, but all options are greyed out for 5-10 seconds before I can navigate. This is not the case in the native one if I open it normally outside of Thunderbird.

I have reinstalled and tried all the normal steps, and the issue is still persisting.

I would appreciate any help or having this escalated to the team.

Thanks!

Probably after the last update I am not able to simply do "Folder Maintenace" by File > Do Folder Mainenace. After doing this the process gives an error message:

"You cannot maintain the "Recycle Bin in xxx@xxx.net" folder because you cannot write to the folder. Check that you have enough disk space and write permissions to the folder and repeat the action.

This started to happen simultaneously on all my devices (two PCs, one notebook), all with updated Windows 11 and with last version of Thunderbird (128.5.2esr (64 bit) and also both in my personal and working mail domains. All of them are IMAP.

If I try to maintain only the trash bin separately, it takes a long time and finishes without any error message. But trying after that the complete maintain again fails.

I tried to delete trash files from the account profile on the disc and then it work. But only until I deleted any message. Then the problem ocurred again.

I am not sure whether I am doing good or bad to maintain folders regularly, but it was okay and without problems yet around month ago, not now.

Thank you, Michal
