Top sites won't populate. When I open a new tab the frames for each of the top sites are sitting there but I can't get any site to populate in it. Normally, the sites I visit most often just automatically populate into it. But somehow that stopped happening and now they're all blank. Even if I tried to manually populate a site into the frame by clicking on "Add top site" option, and then I enter the URL and click add, nothing happens. It just stays blank. I've clicked the little cogwheel up the top and selected Top Sites by clicking in the box. But nothing will populate in the boxes. What's going on?i if I hover the mouse over each of the frames, the top right corner shows like a little pencil sign or something. and when I put my mouse over that it says "edit this site".that brings up "New top site", inviting me to enter the URL.. But like I say, if I enter the information of the URL, it won't populate. I'm stumped

USE CASE:
I am browsing an interesting webpage on Firefox Android, and I wish to add a bookmark to it to my Android launcher homescreen
ENVIRONMENT:
Samsung S8 running Android v9
Firefox 67.0.2
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1) On Firefox for Android, surf to https://www.windfinder.com/forecast/tahoe_city_lake_tahoe
2) "tap and hold the addressbar for about 2 seconds", per Firefox for Android knowledgebase item "Add a Bookmark to Homescreen" at https://support.mozilla .org/en-US/kb/add-delete-and-view-bookmarked-webpages-firefox-an#w_add-a-bookmark-to-your-home-screen
EXPECTED:
Add to Homescreen option appears, per kb article referenced above.
ACTUAL:
Context menu with following options appears: "Paste & Go", "Paste", "Copy Address", and "Add Page Shortcut". There is no item "Add a Bookmark to Homescreen". See attached image "i2.png".
NOTES:
Selecting the "Add Page Shortcut" option does not add a shortcut to my homescreen. It also does not add a bookmark in my Bookmarks list.
KNOWN WORKAROUNDS:
I have not found any way to add a homescreen bookmark using Firefox. (!!)

When I click on a link on a website, it does open up a tab with the URL on top, but it doesn't load the page unless I put my mouse at the end of the url, and click enter. Am I missing a setting or is this normal? I would have thought like other browsers it would automatically load the page.

I have reached the point of crazy with doing something simple.
My old iMac died. My new iMac works. I can't get my old Profile to run on my new Mac.
I have tried all kinds of help pages.
Recovering important data from an Old Profile. No dice.
Use the profile manager to create and remove Firefox profiles. No good.
I have delated Firefox and all the sub-directories and loaded a fresh copy. can't get it to use my old Profile data.
I've cut and pasted .sqlite files, .jsoniz files, evry bit of garbage that I can find a reference to.
Can someone point me to a solution that will work.
Cheers.

Thunderbird seems to have deleted 1 month of emails from 2 different accounts.

I have a GMail account and an AOL Mail account that I access with Thunderbird. Yesterday, the inboxes for both accounts suddenly did not have any messages after 5/25/19, exactly 1 month. The messages were not in the trash folder or in any other folder. They were gone. This cannot be a server error because the exact same thing happened at simultaneously on both accounts. These are IMAP accounts, so somehow Thunderbird must have told both servers to delete 1 month of messages. Following this incident, mail delivery resumed as normal, but the missing emails did not reappear.
I am concerned that this might happen again, and I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas about why this happened and how one might prevent it in the future.

In some websites, like My Nintendo News (https://mynintendonews.com/), there are some icons which don't have anti-aliasing and are almost 100% pixelated. In Chrome, the situation is different: the edges for the icons are smooth.
An example is the Twitter icon. How it looks like in Firefox: http://prntscr.com/o6v6ya And how it looks like in Chrome: http://prntscr.com/o6v79

I have been using Chrome for my browser for some time and changed to Firefox today. It was already on my computer so I updated it and did some tweeking to set it up. Now when I go to a Disqus site which is a discussion site and post a comment, the page jumps all the way down to the bottom of all the comments forcing me to constantly have to scroll back up. I have tried unclicking "Hareware accelerator" in the settings but the problem still happens. Other people using firefox, on the site say it happens to them too. Can you look into this for a fix or I will have to change browsers again.
