I get it Mozilla, you want us to update Firefox. But it's my computer and I want to choose when to do it. Stop with the multiple notifications and bring back the ability to turn them off.
Anyone know of a hack that will turn these off? Other threads on the subject have been turned off, with no real solution. Thank you.

When I open a web page to send out the link to I used to be able to choose which email address I wanted to use (verizon/AOL, or one of 2 business gmail addresses). now I can't send at all unless I choose 1 gmail address under options tool. what happened? I use the different email addresses for different audiences, so I can't mix them. My windows default mail app lists all my email addresses.

I've seen help messages about unblocking, but my efforts haven't resulted in any change. I do notice that on the web and FF help there seem to be multiple instances of this problem. I'm not enough of a tech to wade into this, so I would really appreciate guidance. All other pages behave as expected.

I have gigabit internet. I routinely get speeds 4-8x slower when uploading through firefox than through chrome or ms edge. A 710MB test file will take 21 sec to upload on Chrome, and 21 sec to upload on MS Edge, but 1:34 sec on firefox to google drive.
I have done similar tests uploading the same file to youtube, vimeo and running the backblaze bandwidth test, as well as speedof.me. They all show firefox trailing behind by the same margins.
Where I seem to see no difference however, is the Ookla speed test as in that case firefox tests about as high as chrome.
I've tried reinstalling, safe mode and refresh. No extensions are on and I only run windows defender on Windows 10 (up to date updates).
I spent the end of the afternoon calling my ISP thinking they were throttling traffic only to realize it's only firefox. Attaching a screen shot of Backblaze Bandwidth test and speedof.me that I happen to test in two different browsers when I first noticed the discrepancy. I seem to be pegged to the 65Megabit limit in my practical upload tests to youtube, google drive, and vimeo.
In troubleshooting process I had also tried reinstalling network card drivers and disabling IPv4 and 6 offloading tasks - this made no difference.
I really want to keep using FF, but don't want to have to switch to a diff browser just to upload files.
Thanks for the help!

First, I lost all my current bookmarks, including bookmarks toolbar. Attempting to restore or import bookmarks results in "Firefox not responding" and/or warning message "Script running - continue/end script", either of which results in "Firefox not responding" and Firefox hangs up. I have tried every suggestion under Firefox Help, including: startup with add-ons disabled and removed, Profile fixes, uninstall/reinstall Firefox, Refresh Firefox, and lots more. Security scans show no viruses or malware. Any ideas as to what I do next. Thanks.

I just got a replacement for my old laptop and I have installed Firefox, I'm trying to log into my sync account but it says that I have an invalid authorization code whenever I try to use the code I get in my email. I've trying both copy/pasting it and typing it out manually and I've resent the email several times and tried those codes, but no matter what it says that the code is invalid.

How do I stop Firefox from displaying the name of a graphic I hover over? If this is on the screen when I follow a link, sometimes it persists even when I close the whole browser! The only way to get rid of it in those cases is to log off and back on or it'll sit on the desktop and overlay anything that is displayed.
The graphic attached shows the popup that I'd like to inhibit.

At this point I can only get a list of my bookmarks to the left of my screen by clicking on the "open book" icon in the upper right corner of the screen between "view history, saved bookmarks...... and "Firefox Account". There used to be a way that I could get a full screen listing of my bookmarks including their complete URL name. Has that option been removed???
File upload causes Firefox to be unresponsive and must close browser to continue. Tried all the fixes. Other browsers fine. Several computers.
Please if you have any suggestions, I'll try them. I thought a new clean computer might solve the problem, but no luck there either.

When I open an article link from the Washington Post in a new page, it just sits there blank. If I hover over the address bar, the address report in he lower left of the screen shows the page trying to reach both www.washingtonpost.com and then beta.washingtonpost.com It just flickers between the two but it never actually loads the page. Chrome works without a problem. AdBlocker is off for that page.

I keep two version of bookmarks; version A (2.3 Mb) and version B (3.7Mb). They are different subject versions, not copies or editions of each other. Depending on which version I am using at the time, Firefox would routinely backup either version, and it can be seen in the Profile. Either version is also visible as a function of time and size, if I want to restore them. When I manually back either version up I do so to a separate folder in "documents". There has been no problems for over two years until today. I backed up Version A at 10:00 manually and Firefox also shows one at 10:06. Normal. At 10:15 I restored version B which naturally overwrites version A. Worked fine, as it has in the past. I edited version B using Firefox "show all bookmarks". On finishing I selected backup>chose file> version B and nothing happened. So I tried export to HTML with file name - nothing happened. I selected a book mark to open in new tab and it worked. I tried to delete the bookmark, and it would not delete. I can see that my account is synching and has been for about two hours. This practice of alternating bookmarks version has worked without a hitch for a very long time.
I am concerned that if I exit FireFox the effort to edit the version B bookmarks will be lost because it is not in profile folder and not able to manually back up. Suggestions?
Icons now showing. Volume icon shows up as letters "vo" or fullscreen icon shows as "Ful"
No icons are showing up on the browser. I went to mixer for game streams and instead of the proper media icons, this shows up instead
