What happened to the word "Firefox" at the top left of the browser? I help a lot of folks with computers, and since most things are done in a browser, sometimes have to ask them what browser they're using and there's no easy way to tell from just looking. Even hitting ALT to bring up the menu says nothing about it being Firefox.

Is there a way to put that back/why removed?

If not, I'll send feedback to Mozilla requesting that be added back but they don't seem responsive to such feedback.

Thanks.

Hello,

Earlier today, Hulu was working, but when I try to play videos tonight it just freezes on a black screen with no audio. I sometimes get the message "Firefox is installing components needed to play the audio or video on this page. Please try again later." I thought this was an issue with my DRM, but Netflix, Spotify, and Disney+ content all play like normal.

Widevine says that it was updated today, and when I try to install a different version it says the file is corrupt.

My hosts file has not been changed from the default settings.

I also can't access gvt1.com; it says that the server was not found.

I've tried reinstalling Firefox multiple times to no avail.

Are there any other possible solutions to this problem?

Updating address: Mine will take NO new contacts, NO new groups, and NO new additions to groups already there. I do have the latest Thunderbird.

Found the following in account settings: C:\Users\Lee\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\tulu1gdy.default\Mail\Local Folders. Does this look right? What is tulu1gdy.default?

This is a problem I used to experience a while ago, and then I wasn't experiencing it at all for a long time; however, it's just cropped up again.

I'll be browsing like usual, then I click a link, and that page won't load, just endlessly "waiting". Then I open some new tabs and try visiting other websites, but they also get stuck in the "forever loading" state.

It's not an internet problem because other programs on my computer are still connecting just fine, including to the same sites I'm trying to visit on Firefox.

An interesting wrinkle: other sites that I already had open tabs in when the problem starts will continue to be able to connect to other pages in that site and otherwise receive new data from that site, whether in the same tab or in a new tab. Specifically YouTube and Discord. I can continue receiving new Discord messages and watching new YouTube videos, while other sites fail to load. That is, unless I close all open tabs of those sites and then try to visit them; then they also stop working like everything else.

I'm not sure what the cause could be. In the instance that happened today, the link that initiated it was literally to the homepage of the same site I was already on. And nothing seems to resolve the problem except for exiting Firefox entirely and relaunching it.

NOTE: This began with the previous version, and got worse after upgrading to the new version:

I've been looking for how/where to select a sound in the Task module (getting pop-ups). When I click on anything in the Task module, TBird hangs. It comes back in a few seconds, but the hangs continue.

When I spend more time trying to edit the Tasks, I also get hangs in the Email module (by clicking on anything).

Last night, after one T-Bird hang after another, everything on my computer slowed down, no heavy apps running. This morning I ran the pre-bootup diagnostics, which reported everything (memory, etc.) are okay.

So I'd like to t know how to get T-Bird running smoothly, or maybe I should forget the Tasks and Calendar and stick to email?

A white horizontal line in the top of the screen, whilst watching movies in tv5mondeplus.com. This issue happens when installed the recent update 129.0.

Tested in other browsers and doesn't appear the white horizontal line on top.

Hi

I hope someone can provide me with some advice.

I have used Thunderbird since its birth and have always found it reliable. However the latest release seems to be having problems with moving emails.

Example 1 - I moved an email from my Inbox to a special folder. The email was present in full before the move. Only the header appeared to be copied. I could not undo this and attempting repair on both inbox and other folder failed, as did exit and re-start. The result is that this email is lost.

Example 2 - I went to do a bulk move from the search window (something I have done hundreds of times before without incident). As usual CTRL A, Move to <new folder>, emails greyed out but nothing happens. Exit, return, repeat - same result.

At other times, both these type of operations work fine. But it is unpredictable.

Relatedly, I observe that on start-up the Inbox initially shows as <no messages> and takes several seconds to populate. Also, my auto-filing Rules are also working inconsistently.

These two points, and the two examples, are new issues for me since 128 release. I am using Windows 10 Pro on an HP Envy 17" laptop.

Any suggestions welcome as I am now concerned about losing emails!

Best wishes Roland

Can't type on Tiktok live videos. All other text field on tiktok work, including commenting on non-live videos. All text field on other websites work. I uninstalled firefox and deleted appdata to try from a clean install. Still has same issue. Works fine on Chrome.
