The better question, why doesn't Mozilla offer e-mail that is private?

With no one to trust considering the revelations recently all e-mail providers are voluntarily giving the government access to ALL e-mail, would Mozilla offer to stand up for the Constitution of the U.S.?
There wasn't an option for this question.
''locking as off-topic for Firefox support''

That is actually a very good idea. But, we are mostly volunteers, you can though leave your feedback and suggestions to input.mozilla.org/feedback

Whenever I try to update flash player it demands I close a dashboard client, but it doesn't say which one. I have 10 of them running. the installer must know which one, why doesn't it offer to close it (or them)?

see the title.

the installer doesn’t flag the clients…that’s the problem. if I knew what it was complaining about I would kill it. please don’t tell me the installer is really saying “kill all the dashboard clients”. if that’s it then why doesn’t it offer to do it? either a) it knows where the conflict is but won’t tell me; or b) doesn’t know even if there is a conflict and leaves it up to me to guess. great. sure, I could kill them one by one and eventually find out which one, assuming the answer isn’t b), but I really think the installer could do a better job. up to me there would be no flash clients and thus no issues.

Why doesn't Mozilla fix the Yahoo problem - it is a hacking issue?

Dozens of people have strongly complained about Yahoo inserting itself in Firefox and hiding itself so it cannot be removed. This has been going on for at least a month.
Why doesn't Mozilla do something to prevent Yahoo from HACKING into Firefox.? It is an obvious attempt to pre-empt people's browser of choice. Surely there is someone in the Mozilla group who can either alter the code to block Yahoo or at least come up with a solution that lets the average user remove the stupid Yahoo software.
Thanks

What a pathetic joke - the instructions to remove the unwanted Yahoo search engine tell you to open up the search engine list and remove Yahoo. BUT YAHOO IS NOT DISPLAYED IT IS HIDDEN AND CANNOT BE REMOVED.
That horrible fact is what is so annoying. It is willfully hidden by either Mozilla or Yahoo forcing it down the throats of people who do not want it!!
And a search on one's entire system does not turn up any reference to Yahoo.
ONE MORE TIME, THIS IS MY COMPUTER NOT MOZILLA'S OR YAHOO'S.
Please do what you know perfectly well is the right thing to do and provide a viable method for users to get rid of Yahoo.
Why, Alice, can't you specifically answer my questions instead of spouting the drivel about providing features for a broad range of customers. There are hundreds if not thousands of user that are not happy about this stupid problem.

Why doesn't apple offer a viewer/file browser for iCloud Drive?

Why doesn't apple offer a viewer/file browser for iCloud Drive?
Dropbox, Microsoft’s OneDrive, and Google Drive all have viewer apps that let you see and manage what’s in the drive. The only way you can do that with iCloud Drive is through a web browser. Very frustrating and backward.

I found a possible band-aid for our problem:
1) On iOS 8 Device, go to Safari / iCloud.com
2) Once you get to iCloud.com, you'll notice it won't give you the option to log in.
3) Tap on the URL bar (this should bring up your bookmarks bar and Frequently Visited Sites)
4) Tap, Hold, and Slide your finger down on that section (this will reveal two options: (1) Add to Favorites, and (2) Request Desktop Site
5) Tap Request Desktop Site
Log in as usual, and you can now access iCloud Drive with your PDFs and other documents like any other computer.
I too am disappointed as I was looking forward to view PDF's shared between my Macbook and my iPad, but I think this should work until Apple comes out with a solution.

I have a 32GB thumb dr and I wanted to encrypt it. I used disk utility, Partition, apply. Then went back and tried to encrypt it and it still ask that GUID be setup on it. What must I do now, or how is the better question?

You are saying the phone is locked, but then you are saying there is no provider. The two situations cannot peacefully coexist. Contact Apple and they can tell you if the phone is locked and if locked to which provider the phone is locked. People on this board are not Apple employees and cannot get you that information.

Why doesn't iPhone store audio clips that you download from say whatapp like it does with photos and videos?

Why doesn't iPhone store audio clips that you download from say whatapp like it does with pictures and video?

Because you can't add content, to any iPhone, that way. Done by design.

After 5 Releases, Why Doesn't Mozilla Care About Memory Leaks?

I'm baffled as to why this is still a problem. After a few hours of use, my memory usage while using Firefox 5.0 is at 1.5GB. I've followed every FAQ, disabled every extension, done everything to stop the memory leaks when using this browser and I'm growing very tired.
I have a Core i7 MacBook Pro with 4GB RAM and Firefox still manages to bring it to it knees. I've been a devoted Firefox user since 2002-3 and I've just about lost my faith in this browser.
Chrome is a featureless, ugly, dinky browser that I hate to use, but it leaves Firefox in its dust performance-wise. Where is the happy medium? I don't get it.
My favorite answer is always, "disable your extensions." Here are the problems with that:
1. Without extensions, Firefox is nothing. I might as well use Chrome.
2. It never seems to help, and when it does a little, it is difficult to figure out which extensions are doing the most damage. Why doesn't Firefox provide a way to look at which extensions are using the most memory?
3. Firefox should lay that smack down on extensions that could potentially leak memory, and yet, nothing. It should at least steal memory back when it gets out of control, regardless of what extension is using it.
4. Mozilla recommends some extensions that are supposed to help reduce memory usage, but none of them work on OS X.
I'm exhausted. I shouldn't have to restart my browser a million times day to get anything done. Where are the real solutions? How do years go by with problems like this still getting worse? Firefox 5 was supposed to be better at handling memory, but it's only gotten worse for me.
When will the madness end? We don't want new features, we want performance! I've always loved this browser, but is it really a surprise that Chrome is taking over?
To sum it up, if your browser is slower than Internet Explorer, you need to hurry up and fix the problem or pack it up and go home.

My sentiments exactly!! I have all the exact same complaints and concerns, and I've also tried the solutions provided at no avail.
This the only beef I have with FireFox, but it's a bad one and I've been shopping around for a better browser. Chrome is the best alternative I've found, but it still isn't quite at parity yet.
Please fix this issue or at least make an attempt at it to let your users know it's somewhat of a future priority.
Attached a screen shot of memory usage after 1 hour, and this is the new FF 5 update.

Why doesn't Mozilla Firefox admit Profile bug, regarding "unresponsive plugin" Shockwave problem?

I'm a longtime user, more than 10 years, of Firefox and of Netscape before that. This is the first time I've ever seen "unresponsive plugin," let alone for Shockwave. I followed _every_ solution suggested. Checked up-to-date of plugins and reinstalled several even though they were up to date. Even reinstalled Firefox. Ran a complete Norton scan on my system (totally clear). Finally. On the ADOBE help forum, not on Mozilla's (!!!), someone said that blowing away their Profile and starting anew fixed the problem. This is a drastic step, because it nukes every saved Firefox bookmark and setting. BUT IT WORKS. Dear Mozilla Progammers: You have a PROFILE bug. Please admit it and fix it.

Hi cumulus, sorry you have had a problem.
It is good to know it is fixed. Had you posted here first you would almost certainly have fixed your issue without loosing bookmarks.
Everyone's profile is different it contains the individual users settings
* see [[Use the Profile Manager to create and remove Firefox profiles]]
Using a new profile may well be one fix for some such problems although it is the proverbial sledgehammer and nut approach. There is a long thread about this that I recently locked as it was getting totally unreadable.
* Warning: Unresponsive Plugin; Shockwave flash may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. [/questions/957423]
** The Firefox Reset one popular solutions removes most of the profile
** A clean reinstall could optionally remove the Firefox Profile
** Other solutions and topics are linked from that thread.
* Creating a new profile and trying using that would have been a better suggestion [[Use the Profile Manager to create and remove Firefox profiles]]
This sort of problem can have more than one cause. If removing the profile solves the issue then a less drastic method that almost certainly would work is to create and use a new profile and use that ''without'' destroying the original profile. (Copy the original profile elsewhere)
* see [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
It is highly likely that only part of the profile causes the problem.
* [[Recovering important data from an old profile]]
As noted in the other thread this forum is not a place where you will get developer attention.
===Do you have the ''Profile Bug'' ?===
OR Unresponsive Plugin Problem, with FlashPlayer 
If there is a ''profile bug'' then a bug report may be filed for developers attention, and the first stage of doing that is to be able to carefully document steps to reproduce the problem
*. So anyone ''blowing away the profile'' should first of all back it up
**Being able to reinstall the faulty profile should then reproduce the problem and so demonstrate clearly that the profile is the cause of the problem Or just use the profile manager to switch profiles it is simpler and quicker
** Next even before considering filing a bug try reinstalling or activating different parts of the profile to narrow down the problem.

Why did my calendar clear when I installed the beta and why can I not add events?

I downloaded and installed the latest beta version of Thunderbird and when I did, my entire calendar of events and appointments disappeared and I cannot add anything to the calendar.
I do not like this beta version and want to restore the previous version that worked just fine.

Every version of Thunderbird has a matching version of Lightning. The calendar is blank because you did not upgrade Lightning when you loaded the beta Thunderbird.
The Lightning versions are here. Get the two software's to match and your events will load back up.

Why doesn't verizon offer IMAP?

how come verizon fios customer's can only get pop email and no imap support?

According to their response to this idea in the Idea Exchange:
Status: Not Likely
We have strategically chosen POP3 Email architecture to minimize storage costs. Please know that each master email account has 2GB of storage and if the user does not POP their email, the email is accessible from anywhere with internet access via myverizon.com.
You are welcome to vote for the idea, but Verizon doesn't seem to be interested in IMAP.

Hello Anonyme.
You may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.

I think I have all the settings right, why doesn't iCloud work?

I think I have all the settings correct, but nothing is happening. I post on calendar, it isn't on other devices. Contacts didn't showmupmeither.
Mail might be right. i can send mail from both, but how do I add folders? I cannot find directions anyplace.

My only problem right now is iCal. Nothing is syncing but I discovered I did not sign up for Mobile Me. Here is where my real problem comes in: I need a password to sign up for Mobile Me and everytime I put in a password, Apple won't accept it. I have changed my password 6 or 7 times today. When I get the new one, it will let me in to do that particular thing, but five minutes later, I try something else, and I get the error message. I KNOW what I'm putting in is correct.
10 minutes ago I changed my password. I checked in here at the discussions....got right in with the new password. Went to Mobile Me...get error message that this is the wrong password.
What do I do about this? It's been going on all day. I am trying to install iOS5 but I can't get in anything because of the password problem. I don't have a clue what to do. My warranty is off so I ca't call Apple for free and they charge a lot for phone help. Do you have any idea what the problem is with the password and what I can do to solve it?
Thanks so much.

Why doesn't Mozilla Firefox officially support HTTP 1.1 pipelining yet?

This is really more of a philosophical question than a technical one, but I thought I'd mention it. While investigating ways to improve my browsing speed in general, I even found a Bugzilla ticket from 2004 debating this issue.
While I understand Mozilla wants to reduce the number of problems end users have, turning this option on in my browser has greatly increased the speed by which major websites load.
Since I'm asking, I would like to make sure. I'm currently using a web proxy and have both "network.http.pipelining" and "network.http.proxy.pipelining" set to TRUE. Is this the appropriate way to enable this feature?
Thanks In Advance.

If that works better for you, use it by all means. Certainly both browser and proxy should be set the same way. I found that pipelining did not help with Mac browsers, but did help with Windows browsers with a proxy that supported it.

The better question, why doesn't Mozilla offer e-mail that is private?
