Dashlane stopped auto filling in Firefox. Copy & paste doubles the info. Win10 64bit Pro. The app works in Chrome. It worked fine in Firefox until last week. I cleared all data & cookies, still doesn't work. The problem occurs on both https & http websites. I tried all the fixes on the Dashlane support site, but they don't have any effect in Firefox.

Huawei & Firefox

I have been using Firefox on my Huawei P29 for several years. I have Google UK set as my search engine and on my home page and this has been fine for years. Two or three days ago when I loaded Firefox Google UK and Google.com wouldn't display. The link flashes in the top bar but the page stays blank. They will load in Chrome and in Firefox if I have desk top mode switched on, but not in android mode. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, cleared the browser cache but no change. Getting pretty fed up with wasting my time sorting it out. Is it the Huawei phone or Firefox's last update?

After accidentally closing Thunderbird, two message I was working on were still open.

I went to Windows Start and clicked on Thunderbird and it opened but neither of my two email accounts were shown. I was able to get to Support by clicking on Help in one of the messages.

I tried "Set Up Your Existing Email Address" and received the message "Configuration found in Mozilla ISP database." When I clicked on "Done", the message "Incoming server already exists."

Available configurations IMAP Keep your folders and emails synced on your server Incoming IMAP I SSL/TLS imap.gmail.com

Outgoing SMTP I SSL/TLS smtp.gmail.com @ Username waynestiefvater@gmail.com

When I click on "Account Setting", a screen appears that shows the accounts for both of my email addresses, and the settings appear to be as I remember them. Everything seems to be fine but Thunderbird simply won't load with my two email accounts.

A week or so ago I had to delete all of the Cookies on my computer to get another program to work. I don't know if the Cookies possibly needed for Thunderbird to load were deleted and that might be the problem.

It shouldn't be the cause of the problems I'm having now, but the Profile for Thunderbird is at the root of the C: directory: C:\0-FFox\Profiles. That was done to shorten the length of the file addresses.

Many thanks! I really appreciate your help! I use email a lot every day and I hope the fix will be simple!

As written in the title, context menu is disabling the "Copy" item.

Fortunately, CTRL-C works. I found a workaround by disabling the Google Translate add-on, which I reported right away. Later I realized, it happens the same way with another add-on, too.

I see many people complaining about this in the past, not sure whether those have been fixed or this issue is still there.

Thanks for any help!

Video play problem on Mac Current Firefox version fails to play videos on my Mac (OS 14.2.1). When I click play on a video on any website, the video is extremely slow to start, then immediately stalls for several minutes at a time. My internet connection isn't the issue I'm getting over 650 MBS. I assume the problem is with Firefox, because both Safari and Opera play videos just fine.
