Notifications

I am no longer getting notifications when someone comments on an article that I have commented on (and I really miss that). However, it seems that I am getting notifications when someone 'likes' one of my comments. This is true for both of my accounts: JTBaldwin and Rebranding History. Thank you.

Hi there, You are still set up in your profile settings to receive new comment notifications on both of your accounts. Have you checked your spam or junk folder?

Hi Emily, thanks for responding. Nothing in Spam. The last comment notification I received was April 8 for Rebranding History and April 9 for JTBaldwin. I get the likes, updates and followers, but no comments. I'm keeping my fingers crossed you can find a fix.

What is Firefox Software Updater Notification?

RitaWeeda, You can set Firefox not to automatically install updates. Current versions ... Options \ General, scroll down to Firefox Updates section and select "Check for updates but let you choose to install them" It may be under a different menu structure if you're on an older version. It may still advise that an update is available but won't automatically install it. You can check manually check for updates by clicking on Help / About Firefox. It will check from there if any updates are available, advise you accordingly, and offer to fetch and install. I've been using Firefox since the 0.xx versions.

Anyone else getting false notifications of new messages?
Q
Comments (8)
Surely I'm not the only one????? That feels a bit like persecution, lol. It happened AGAIN today. I had an alert for two new messages. I went through both the old and new inboxes, and the TWO OLDEST messages were showing as new. These weren't even messages I had received, but two that I had SENT...in 2016! This seems to be a glitch in the new mailbox, since it's there they keep reappearing as new. I'm not even going to bother with reporting the issue at this point, as it's basically an exercise in futility. Sooooooooo...if anyone sends me a message and you don't get an answer right away, it's because I'm ignoring the alerts! Apologies in advance. John

I only have Windows 10 but there's a section in Settings called "Notifications" where personal preferences for particular apps and notifications can be turned on and off. See if you can find something similar.

Is that for every thread or only some threads? If you have a link to some of the threads you are having problems with, that might help track down the issue.

Okay, here are links to the last articles I received notifications of likes to my comments. So theoretically, these are the threads that I also should be notified when others make comments. I comment a lot however, so there are many more links I could provide. Thanks and good luck.

Same for me Emily. I'm still getting email notifications of "likes" in ideabooks. But no notifications for "new comments" in ideabooks.

This started sometime late last week, I believe.

Notifications for comments and likes seem to be coming through fine for dilemmas.

I've tripled checked my "settings".

Yeh Emily! At the risk of speaking too soon and jinxing things... it looks as though my notifications are back on both accounts. Thank you for working it through to the fix.
