I no longer see search suggestions when I start typing in the search bar. I still have "show search suggestions" checked in Settings, Search.

I should also ask: I don't remember how I enabled the old search bar, to the right of the address bar, mostly because I'm used to it. I don't see a box for it in Settings. What if I wanted to remove it? What if I then wanted it back?

Well, ok, one more. Also in Settings, Search, I see a drop-down list from which to choose my search engine, but no space to add a new one. Where's that? I've seen instructions to navigate to another search engine, but that can't be the way to do it. I normally wouldn't navigate to a search engine's page before searching.

'Linked In' technical support are telling me that I am unable to see certain pages on their system most likely because my Firefox Browser (which is fully up to date) is using DNS. They said to remove DNS. Is this wise advice and if so how do I do that and what difference will it make to my day to day use of firefox?

Yet another sterling example of why change is usually bad. Why did Firefox, Google and other browsers (though don't know about Duck Duck Go) drop the 100 results per page option? I've always had that enabled and now that it was removed it makes searching extremely tedious and time wasting. Please offer a SIMPLE AND QUICK way to restore this option ASAP. Thank you.

I've done "refreshes", I've uninstalled and deleted the folder and re-installed, I've checked the SSD for errors. Nothing appears in the event viewer. Is there some way to definitively figure what is causing this?

After updating to v 133.0, when maximizing Firefox (not F11 fullscreen), a taskbar that is set to "auto-hide" will no longer unhide when mousing to the bottom of the screen. This did not occur with the previous version (132.0.2).

This behavior is also unaffected by the "devtools.toolbox.alwaysOnTop" setting in about:config as i've tried switching from the default "true" to "false".

I switched to another mailing provider and before this I made an export of the mailbox. The Imap account was deleted at the provide, so my mailbox is lost. Now I tried to import the mailbox again, but the import fails.

I tried the import manager, but every time after import only empty local map are left. After this I tried the different options (profile of files), both gives the same results, showing an empty map. Then I tried the addon ImportExportTools NG 14.1.2. During the import TB shuts down. When TB starts after the import, for about 10 secs it shows the mailbox with the imported mails. Then unfortunaly all the email dissapears. Could anyone help me with this issue?

Thanks!

Email errors started occurring on or about November 25, 2024. Multiple calls and tech support with Spectrum techs and hours of troubleshooting brought about O results. I obtained all necessary protocols for configuring email to Spectrum requirements and for sending and receiving, but I still get outgoing errors. I have been using Thunderbird for 5 years or more now and never had any issues until now. Upon inspection through Thunderbird tools/setting/ looking at "SAVED" passwords, I no longer see "IMAP" or "MAIL" access protocols. It was there previously. I also disabled all my firewall and vpn settings and still cannot send out any emails. I have thoroughly checked out both my personal email setting and my small business email settings and everything as it relates to Spectrum is correct. Spectrum said one thing they found was that the email settings (specifically, would not resolve with the server because of a syncing problem). Spectrum did all they could to resolve on their end, but the issues, as they see it now resides on the Thunderbird side. In an effort to resolve the issues, the Spectrum tech looked and looked for a phone number for Thunderbird and said this is the first time he has never found a number that one can call for some sort of assistance. Emails directly to Thunderbird are very, very slow. And to compound the issue, there are no lists I could find is a repository for error codes and no valuable tech support or specifications could be found that provides any real help for resolution. So now I am making a last ditch effort to contact Thunderbird for a one on one phone conversation that will resolve all the issues I have encountered. Hopefully with your immediate reply, we can resolve these issues and I will be able to help others resolve these same issues. These issues are not just isolated to me. There are literally hundreds maybe even thousands of people out there with the same issues. PLEASE contact me asap. Thank you for your time. (PS. I do receive some messages via email, but sending out is the issue)

As the title states, certain media elements within Firefox refuse to play with audio, but only with frustrating inconsistency. For example, any videos on Youtube are fine. Any videos on Reddit are fine. But many videos, most commonly on boorus and streaming sites I cannot name here, will not play. The volume on the video slider is all the way up, the Firefox application is not muted, the site is not muted, and the tab is not muted. The only thing that makes those videos play audio is if I left click on them to open them in another tab by themselves. While it solves the issue, it's still an extremely inconvenient way to go about my browsing. I know for a fact that this is a Firefox problem because those same videos on those same sites work perfectly fine within other browsers. Please, does anybody know of a solution to this issue?

I'm not sure what type of issue this is, so hopefully I’ve posted it in the right place!

Devices:

  • Firefox version 133.0 on 2022 M2 MacBook Pro OS Sequoia 15.1.1
  • Firefox version 133.0 on iPhone 16 Pro Max iOS 18.1.1 (*for reference, of checking issue, not where issue is occurring)

Issue Breakdown: While updating my bookmark's tags in Bookmark Manager, my tags all but disappeared and other strange things started happening.

  • My tags aren't in the sidebar menu of the Bookmark Manager at all. See Screenshot 1.
  • Already tagged bookmarks retained the tags, but I’m unable to edit, add, or remove bookmark tags at all. When the bookmark is selected, the bookmark’s tags, nor any other tags, appear in a list under the bookmarks tags. See Screenshot 2.
  • I can locate all bookmarks with the same tag by searching bookmarks in the Bookmark Manager.
  • I can move and rename pre-existing bookmarks.
  • I can add new bookmarks (confirmed by the blue star beside the address bar on the main browser after exiting and re-entering), but I cannot find those bookmarks anywhere in Bookmark Manager.
  • My mobile bookmarks folder isn’t shown in Bookmarks Manager, but I can view 11 bookmarks in my Mobile Bookmarks folder on my phone’s Firefox application.

I’ve tried the following:

I have no idea what is wrong with it or what is going on. What else can I do?

My page throws errors in Firefox Nightly such as

Expected color but found ‘undefined’. Error in parsing value for ‘background-color’. Declaration dropped. preview.htm:1:1

and

Expected color but found ‘undefined’. Error in parsing value for ‘color’. Declaration dropped. preview.htm:1:1

The page references ten CSS files besides having dozens of its own CSS declarations. The issue is tha the reference provided to the error (:1:1) does not indicate where I can find the error. That is, I don't know which declaration is at fault. Is there some straighforward way to find the declaration in question?
