I would like to disable hovertext that is displayed when hovering the mouse cursor over an image that has TITLE attributes. I have tried about:config browser.chrome.toolbar_tips;false but that did not change anything, image title attributes are still displayed when hovering over an image (e.g., XKCD). I also tried browser.overlink-delay;50000 which did affect links on the bottom lefthand corner of websites, but that still didn't specifically target image title attributes from displayed when being hovered over by the cursor.

Outlook help tells me that spelling checkers are available in Firefox but how do I turn them on? And if I am using Firefox as my browser but am in hotmail, will it work in hotmail? I am at a loss and your hlep would be appreciated. Thanks, Anthony

New problem in past week. Thunderbird inserts "?" in place of space when sending and receiving e-mails. Win 7 and Win 10, Thunderbird 60.6.1 on Win 7 and Thunderbird 60.5 on Win 10. Tried different fonts using Body Text font style. What has changed in the past week or so that has caused this problem?
This is an e-mail I sent to myself using different fonts (Helvetica, Arial - Arial - Fixed Width - Variable Width - Times). All give the same result:

I have attempted to save various forum webpages, but the saved page ends short of the complete page. In order to save the entire page I must first save the page (as a complete webpage), then scroll down a bit, save again with a new name, scroll a bit further and save again, etc. Is there a way to REALLY save the complete page?

Have tried the copy-paste-copy mentioned in a suggestion. I have also tried copying the program folder from the old to the new machine as well as copying the old profile folder to the new machine (in the roaming folder). Running the help>troubleshooting routine and opening the profile folder from there shows that TB is pointing at the data I want it to point to, but it does not restore my inbox and the other mail boxes such as sent, trash and a few others. My profile shows a 141MB file "global-messages-db.sqlite" that actually contains my old folders -- I can see my recent emails by opening it in Notepad --, but it is not accessed by TB. Strangely enough, it does recognize my address book. Any help would be appreciated.

Created New Firefox Account Instead of Linking Old Mozilla Account-What Steps To Take?

Please answer each question separately:
Even though Google is my default search engine, I have selected the remaining 6 default options under 'One Click' Search Engines.
When I type a letter, it brings up searches for my default Google but the icons for the other search engines are in the bottom left corner.
1. Am I supposed to click on one of the icons to bring up a search for that particular search engine OR is my address bar search supposed to show searches for all seven search engines?
2. When 'Never Remember History' is selected, am I still able to select the 'One Click Search Engines' that will automatically be displayed the next time that 'Remember History' is selected OR can I only choose the one-click search engine options when 'Remember History' is selected?
3. Before signing into my old account, I noticed that users have to create a new Firefox account, even if they have an existing account, so that is what I did-Is that what I was supposed to do?
4. With this new account, will I automatically receive an email notification when someone responds to my thread?
5. Periodically, when signing in with my new account, I receive a 'Bad Request 400' message. Other times, I am able to sign in but the top right corner does not show me as signed in so I have to sign in again; Are these known glitches?

NOTHING makes it go away permanently. stupid. I don't use AVG password service. I'm continually getting a really stupid message at the top of my firefox almost every day that I have to close, about their password service and an issue. it does NOT apply to me. closing it doesn't help, hitting Learn doesn't help, nor does the third option. fix this stupid thing!

Hi Everybody, im Dr Nick. Firefox 52 is my love. i have tried younger models. but i always come back too ole faithful.
Shes got all the right shapes. sizes. and feels. but these days speed is lacking. despite my upgrading both my core2 duos. too a core2quad. and a hex core xeon. both 12gb ram They both run quite fast, but much slower than they used too. infact, they are slower than the firefox, on my pentium 3,4, and HT AND my core2duo / 4gb laptop. with the latest firefox ? wtf.
I am being throttled i tell you !!!. i have slimmed her down, and run only add blocker, and crypto mining blocker.
But its not youtube that is so slow... its everything, the whole firefox browser. [ this is the bit that bugs me ]. i run comprehensive firewall ] and not even alex jones can explain who is doing this.
is anyone doing any research too this end ?. or have any russian software too prevent it ?.
GODSPEED Mozilla !!

Hello, title states the issue. I have checked the sound mixer in windows and Firefox is not muted. I have uninstalled Realtek Media Codecs (no sound on the same video with or without). I have CCCP codec pack installed but am unsure if that works with Firefox. FireFox is up to date I have tried disabling uBlock Origin and the other plugin Imagus and still the same result. This is a new PC with a 3900X cpu and have had this issue since installation Looking at the "stats for nerds" the video that has no sound playback is using the same codec as the one that plays sound. This video has no sound: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=agZ0xISi40E This video has sound: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O37yJBFRrfg
