The small green dot in the upper right that notifies me of a pending update is gone, since several months. When I navigate to About Firefox, or in the settings, I can see that a new version is available and it lets me install the update. But I miss being able to see the notification.

Did I disable some setting by mistake? Auto-updates should be turned on as far as I know.

Gmail - "Drop a File" Function - from Finder List to Browser Window DOES NOT WORK - is Hanging

1) Does Mozilla Firefox for Mac offer email technical support?

2) After a recent Firefox for Mac update (36.0.1 (aarch64)) the ability to drag and drop files from Finder to the open Gmail (email) window on the browser (not in the Gmail app), does not function -- in fact, is hangs with the circle of death, then have to close the window tab, and reopen. In worst case, have to force quit Firefox browser.

I also have Grammerly installed for the Gmail / email function - I will disable it to see if that's the culprit.

Lastly, very difficult to find product problems and reported issues - and difficult to know "what topic best describes my PROBLEM - not question."

I enjoy Firefox and use it on all platforms. In the last week it has been difficult to browse if I leave the app for more than a few seconds. I have found that in Task manager, the Firefox processes go to efficiency mode. Once that happens I cannot bring the browser back active. How can I turn off efficiency mode for Firefox? Thanks.

Hi,

This is not a question, but rather an observation. When I imported passwords from Chrome (Version 134.0.6998.89 (Official Build) (64-bit)) to Firefox (136.0.1 (64-bit)) one of the passwords was incorrectly imported from Chrome. One of my passwords contains an exclamation mark (!) at the end, and this mark was cut off when I imported it. For example. Password in Chrome: password123! Password in Firefox: password123
