hello. i have a problem with times displayed by firefox on my linux box. for some reason firefox seems to think that i'm in or near reykjavik in iceland, and i can't find out why.

the following ONLY applies to firefox on my linux box, but not to other browsers on the same machine or to firefox on android: - when i connect to my home assistant server and go into my personal settings, under time zone it offers me to options: server time zone (europe/london) which is correct or "local" time zone (atlantic/reykjavik) which is WRONG. i'm in the london timezone, so why does firefox think i'm in iceland? - in youtube, firefox tells me that live streams and premieres start an hour earlier than they actually do. like today there is a live stream that starts at 12:35 but firefox tells me it starts at 11:35. no bueno! so why does firefox do this? what setting got screwed up, and how can i fix it?

like i said above, only firefox on my linux box does this, in other browsers and on other platforms it does not happen. that tells me it is a firefox issue.

I'm using the latest version of Thunderbird. I just updated to Version 128.3.1esr. The problem is that I cannot edit or add event dates to Thunderbird Clients. I can see all my previous events but it will NOT let me add or edit events. This all worked fine before the latest update occurred, so it's related to the changes that Thunderbird made in this last update. This makes Thunderbird calendar useless.

Every few months, my message sorting will switch to threaded mode. It did it again within the last couple of days.

I thought maybe it reverts to defaults whenever an update comes through, but update history shows my last update was Sept. 12 (exactly a month ago), and I used T-Bird yesterday, and messages were not threaded then.

I'm thinking that if I change the defaults to "unthreaded", this would stop happening, but I'm curious if it's common for it to randomly switch to the default irrespective of updates.

Would the computer rebooting (whether manually or automatically for, say, Windows updates) cause it to revert to defaults - is that what's going on?

I have an account on a website I visit near-daily. Despite having both cookies for this website persist and the password supposedly saved, the last three times I've visited the website I've been logged out and the password is nowhere to be found. Having to switch between my password manager and browser is annoying beyond description.

(That's actually not true. I have quite a few choice descriptors for this program, but have chosen to omit them)

Firefox went through a pretty major change recently. i could see I had to change my toolbar customisation back to how I wanted it. However, I have about half a dozen add-ons controlled via icons on the browser, but all the icons are gone and I see no way to get them back.

I don't care about cookies Cookie Editor Disable Javascript Tab Auto Refresh uBlock Origin

Until the recent Firefox update I could switch these add-ons on or off whenever I wanted via icons on the menu toolbar. I now see no way to get these controls back.

When opening a new tab, can you set Firefox not to put the cursor into the address bar?

FYI I work all day on a relatively large screen, and I really do not want to set my eye focuses on the left top corner where address bar is shown. For this reason, I am using the tree style vertical tabs, and when I search, I use the center search box instead of address bar search.

Until last week, I could drag and drop events in my Lightning calendar to move them from one day to another. That no longer works. Have I accidentally changed something in my settings, or is this a change in the software? I am running Thunderbird 128.3.1esr (64-bit) on an HP Windows 10 desktop. Thanks!

Hi, my firefox appears to be missing its navigation/toolbar. I only have a single bottom bar for the address bar, home, tab and the three dots. I would like to have the back, forward button, bookmarks to be pinned on the toolbar area. I try to use the Secret Setting but it does not have the option to enable toolbar. I have included two screenshots, the orange circle depicting my current situation. I would like to have something similar to the toolbar (Samsung Internet Browser) in the other screenshot with teal circle.
