I'm running FF 115.8.0esr on MacOS High SIerra 10.13.6. (desktop). I generally sleep the computer rather than shutting down each day.

The problem - If I have restarted the computer or restarted FF, I can play video and audio OK. Mostly I will find that I can still play for a day or so (even having slept the computer). Then they stop. Opening a new window or a private window doesn't help, the only solution is to restart FF or the computer. All the while, I can get the same video/audio to play on Safari, and Apple iTunes is fine too. It doesn't matter what the source is - YT, Spotify BBC iPlayer, BBC Sounds and so on.

Would really like some help on this!

The fundamental nature of dementia and Alzheimers is that the victim cannot remember new information. But for some time they can recall information and processes which were learned previously.

After some years, they will be unable to utilize any of the technology they depend upon - they will not be able to turn on their device to make a phone call. They won't be able to locate the menu they need to utilize. Because all that changes CONSTANTLY. They will become helpless sooner than necessary. They will strain their families and the taxpayer sooner than necessary.

The only solution is for software makers to roll out, every 5 or 6 years, a "stable version" where the user interface will not change one iota for 25 years. Of course, they must still make internal updates for security and changes in the Internet Protocol layer system. The portions of the code that deal with the user must be modular to be plugged into newer hardware and communication protocols.

When someone is diagnosed with memory impairment, they will have time to learn the latest Stable Version.

This is a very fundamental change to business as usual, but there is no other solution other than continuing to balloon the cost of elder car.

In the old days this would be a call for an RFP...

I get the "Secure Connection Failed" when trying to go to a web site.

I know the web site is fine. You have stopped offering the "Go anyway" button!

Until a few months ago I had a small icon on the right-hand end of the toolbar [the one with the URL in it] - After I downloaded a pdf to a file in Finder I could click on that icon & it took me straight to the downloaded pdf file in Finder. It was very convenient. It avoided having to go to Finder & find the recently downloaded pdf file myself so I could open it and read it. I don't know if it was an add-on or some other type of link: I just had the icon in the toolbar. Does anyone know what it was & where [or how] I can get it again?

I would like to change my password for Mozilla Firefox account. I am doing so because I have been notified of a password security breach. However, upon signing into my account via https://accounts.firefox.com/signin (it doesn't matter which device), I cannot change my password with the new one without the red-colored incorrect password window popping up. I know my signin is correct because I have just signed in using it. Whats the problem guys?

HI, I'm trying to move the text to below the picture as in the screenshot of the popup (black back ground) on the non-popup pages because the mobile is not in popup, and the text is blocking the artwork as well. Is there a section to move the text outside of the picture? Thank you!

For the past 3 years I have not been able to send emails using either "@me.com" or "@icloud.com". All other providers such as "@gmail.com" and "@outlook.com" work perfectly. The only exception to this is when an email sent to me using my account name can it be used to respond. I assume therefore that there is an error in my settings for the SMTP server are wrong.

The SMTP server settings allowed in the TBird settings are as follows:

Description: user choice (I have tried my forename and the word "Apple" - no difference) Server name: smtp.mail.me.com or smtp.mail.icloud.com (either should be accepted) Port: 587 or 465

Connection security: None, STARTTLS, or SSL/TLS Authentication method: No Authentication, Normal password, Encrypted password, Kerberos/GSSAPI or NTLM

user name: my name (my name)

The message I get when I try to send a email with any combination of the above is "Login to server imap.mail.me.com with username xxxxxxxxxxxx failed."

I have other accounts listed in TBird. None of them have this issue.

Both Firefox and Thunderbird are up to date (115.31.0 for FF and 115.18.0 for TB)

Can you please advise me on this. It has been an issue for the 3 years or so. As I use the Apple account for family members only it is particularly frustrating!

I recently bought a new laptop and didn't import Firefox to the new one. Now I can't access my passwords etc on Firefox because it asks my for my primary password. I have no idea what that might be. Does anyone know if there is any way to recover the passwords please?

When I look at about Firefox it says I'm up to date - but it's only version 115.18. How do I update further? I'm starting to get messages that my browser is no longer supported.

When I went into my email this AM, a line above it stated that my browser no longer is supported. I have a desk-top MAC OS operating system and I have used Firefox to get into my email for a very long time. What gives? Thank you.

Context: So, I needed to get into Pear Assessment for school (I use my personal computer for school too) And I couldn't get into my Practice Test, so my mom suggested that I delete my history in an attempt to get in. So then I deleted it also thinking it might have a chance at working. But it didn't, and now I deleted my personal history for nothing. Please help me. Thank you.

(It is my first time using this website. I am a child, so I'm not sure how to answer everything in means of details. Also I put this on "browse" because, you know, browsing history. But I do know that my MacBook is a: ["macOS High Sierra Version-10.13.6 MacBook Air-(13-inch, 2017) Processor-1.8 GHz Intel Core i5 Memory-8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3" Hope this info helps you])

Bye, and have a good rest of your day. And don't let anyone tell you otherwise!

Trying to reactivate my Adobe CS6 software package and when I try to login to the Adobe website it tells me that to access the Adobe site I have to update my Mozilla browser by adding JavaScript to the browser. Why is this required and is there any means to access Adobe using Firefox without complicating the browser by adding JavaScript?
