Nevelyn 3 Posted October 26, 2015 Author Posted October 26, 2015 DesktopWindows XP Pro SP3Firefox 41.0.2 I only see Options, I do not see File. Where would I find File? Are my selections under Options not saved? If they are saved, are they saved as cookies in my computer or are they saved in the cloud?
Level 5* gazumped 12,214 Posted October 26, 2015 Level 5* Posted October 26, 2015 Ah. If you use the installed desktop client, you'd get some extra functionality and the saved options. If you're using the web, you just get defaults every time you log in to the account.
Nevelyn 3 Posted October 26, 2015 Author Posted October 26, 2015 What is the installed desktop client?

Nevelyn 3 Posted October 26, 2015 Author Posted October 26, 2015 I do not think that the Windows desktop client would be useful to me, since those saved settings would only appear on my desktop computer, while I also need them to show in my Android devices and Windows laptops. Is there a workaround? Thank you for your assistance in clearing this issue for me.
Level 5* CalS 5,311 Posted October 26, 2015 Level 5* Posted October 26, 2015 Settings are by device, so you need to them on the Android and the desktop client. Give the web a try, set it the sort and view the way want and then log out. It has maintained for me in the past session to sessions with Firefox and Chrome. The settings are unique to the browser not the account. Perhaps not the same with @Gaz per the above. EDIT. This is classic web not the new one.
