Hi,

Recently, when I type in the URL bar, there is only 1 suggestion from my bookmarks. Before, there were several bookmarks that show.

I want the previous behavior back so that I only need to type a few characters and then choose one of the suggested bookmarks in the list of results. Now, I need to keep typing a lot more characters/words before the 1 bookmark I want shows up. Sometimes I can’t recall enough of the full URL so the bookmark I want never shows up.

This is a big downgrade in the user experience. Is there a setting to go back to the previous behavior?

Regards.

I've added https://x.com as an exception site but it is still blocked.

This is outright censorship which is something fascists do.

Tell me how to fix your browser so I may access x.com again or I stop using Firefox forever.

When I try to play a video on Firefox desktop, it takes it a long time to load. Once it has loaded, whenever I pause it for more than a few seconds, or if I try to skip around the video (either by clicking around in the loaded section of the progress bar or using +/- seconds buttons), the video begins buffering again before the video resumes. This makes it extremely difficult and frustrating to watch anything that requires me to pause, rewind, or fast forward. I've noticed this issue affect multiple video viewing sites, such as YouTube, Vimeo, and Netflix. My roommate also uses Firefox, but doesn't have this issue, so I know it's not a problem with my internet. I thought it might be a problem with my computer, but I tried to replicate the issue in Chrome and everything worked fine there. The issue has persisted almost a week. I have:

  • Rebooted my computer several times
  • Deleted my history/cache
  • Disabled my extensions
  • Turned off Java scripts in firefox (this disabled my ability to load sites like YouTube completely, so I turned it back on)
  • Updated my computer
  • Updated my graphics drivers
  • Refreshed firefox
  • Uninstalled and reinstalled firefox (and rebooted my computer)
  • Uninstalled and reinstalled firefox AND deleted all the data it stored on my computer (and rebooted my computer)

I am currently using version 123.0.1 of Firefox. My OS is Windows 10 22H2.

For some reason, my Thunderbird recently "updated" to version 115.10.2, and the "About Thunderbird" dialog says that it is on the "esr update channel." I can find no information about the esr channel. However, when I start Thunderbird, it displays the "Welcome to Thunderbird DAILY" screen. Am I correct that this is an error? If I were really on the daily channel, I think that the version number should be higher.

Since some time when I start up Thunderbird I get a popup:

"Add Security Exception" + "You are about to override how Thunderbird identifies this site"

In forums it was stateed this can be due to the antivirus program. I am using Acronis Cyber Protect Home. I closed Thunderbird, pauzed the real time protection and started up Thunderbird again: this did not solve the issue: I still get the pop up, see image attached.

Is there a way to analyse the origin of this pop up? What's triggering this pop up in Thunderbird?

Thx!

Recently, when I click on Get Messages to download email from Comcast server I receive error messages. One error shows "Login to server mail.comcast.net with username X?X?X failed. Retry, Enter New Password, Cancel".. Second error shows "Sending of passwowrd for user X?X?X did not succeed. Mail server mail.comcast.net responded: [AUTH] Temporarily blacklisted IP Address - try again later" I spoke with Comcast tech support and they, of course, gave me the standard line that I was using a 3rd Party App for email and they could not support that and I could instead use the email on line at my Comcast account site utilizing the antiquated Comcast mail options. They finally attempted to help and after they researched the issue they suggested I change the Server Name setting form 'MAIL.COMCAST.NET' to 'IMAP.COMCAST.NET' and changed port from 995 to 993. I tried making those changes and was not receiving the error statements. But I also was not seeing ANY email downloaded or message indicating TBird was login in the Comcast server. I then changed the Server Name back to 'MAIL.COMCAST.NET' and port back to 995. TBird then correctly downloaded dozens of emails. When I tried to same thing the next day, though, the error problems had returned. Finally, I was looking at Tools>Account Settings and selected Add-ons and Themes in left pane. I noticed Bitdefender Toolbar was enabled under Extensions so I tried switching it to disabled. Voila, the program would once again download emails. But a short time later another try to Get Messages resulted in the errors again. Can anyone answer with changes to connect properly to Comcast for email? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Firefox View Open Tabs is my favorite feature. I (used to) use it daily, but now, even though I have NUMEROUS windows (over 40) and multiple tabs in many of those windows, View Open Tabs is completely empty. I'd very much like to restore that 'index' without losing all those pages/tabs (it's my reading & ToDo list).


Sometime recently, I found it using gobs of CPU even though Javascript was (and still is) disabled, so I found the top CPU process and killed it. Instead of a single page going blank, Firefox crashed. Sometime after that I noticed that View Open Tabs was no longer populating. Maybe that contributed or instigated the dysfunction?
