After a recent update to Thunderbird (months ago), I found that when I search through my emails by name, it will find those emails and list them for me. But when I go and click on one of those found emails, it arbitrarily brings up some unrelated email - it never brings up the one that I click on.

How can we fix this? Thanks. Dr. Howard Neufeld

Google Lens type camera in mobile and pc search engines and browsers. I got on my Android phone Firefox browser shortcut and Google's, Googles's has a camera next to the mic than when you click it it gives 2 options to take and analyze, search photo, or use for same reason a photo from gallery. Will Firefox ad this type of feature on mobile and pc? And the magnifying glass is ai search.

While using Mozilla Firefox on Windows 11, the search function within a ChatGPT conversation sometimes fails to detect text that is clearly present. When I search for a phrase that was previously discussed, I often receive a pop-up sound and a message stating “phrase not found,” even though I can manually locate the same phrase by scrolling through the conversation. This appears to be an issue with how in-page search is functioning in this context.

Hello,

I want to make Saved Searches

So the 3rd step is to choose your folders.

I have a TON of folders and mostly I want to

Start from all folders and only unselect a few of them.

But here it starts from all subfolder collapsed and all folders unselected.

So for me the first step is to manually expand all folders, and subfolder and subsubsubfolders and so on.

And then go down the entire list and select every single one.

And THEN start from the top of the list again and now, choose which one in particular I want to exclude.

I know this sounds like, I should just check the ones I want to include.

But for some reason, that feels completely impossible to do. I can only unselect the ones I don't want and it feels impossible to only select the ones I want "which is all except a few"....

Usually, I never make it to the end and just give up before I get to the stage where I would start unchecking the ones I don't want.

So, this is the reason for this question.

"In Create Saved Search, Choose Folder dialog, how to select all and expand all folders ?"

Dear Mozilla Firefox:

Re: Very Transient Search Specifications

Having disabled AI search capabilities satisfactorily, I am now plagued with re-establishing search specifications innumerable times a session. I open a tab. I set my safe search requirements followed by several items under “All Search Settings,” then save and Exit. I open a new tab and repeat all the steps. I back up out of that search list, not backing up past the window with the saved settings to find they are nevertheless reset back to default, necessitating that I repeat all the steps. I leave this window of Firefox open but minimized and open a new Firefox window and repeat all the steps.

Of what use is saving the settings? They don’t persist within tabs, across tabs, or across windows. These inconveniences began with the introduction of AI services to Firefox. Yes, I delete cookies and set other parameters in the name of privacy, but not with the expectation that saving search settings during a session will prove meaningless. Please let me know and understand how to have both privacy and utility.

A long time Firefox user and supporter.
