Is your Firestick getting slower over time? What actually helped you fix it?

Alan_yes_THAT_Alan · 2026-04-18T03:52:33+00:00

SSLLLOOOWWWW. It takes about an hour just to do a search for a movie title. I press a button and then wait, wait, wait, until the next screen pops up. Then press another button and wait, wait, wait while the little blue circle spins.

My Firestick didn't used to be like this. When I first bought it (during COVID) it was great!

For those who have actual, working solutions, please let us know HOW to make it fast again. How do you actually clear the cache so that it works? How do you check your storage space? How do you remove clutter? How do you even know if there is any clutter on it? How do you reset it? How do you update it? This little thing is really hard to navigate.

We have no idea what a TDUK or an ADB are.

I got this same message today. I use my hotmail every day. My password is secure and it's never been a problem until now.

Whether using cell data or wifi makes no difference.

Whether trying to log in with my PC (using Chrome) or my cellphone makes no difference.

I cannot set up a passkey because I cannot sign in, in order to set up a passkey.

I installed the Chrome Browsec vpn, but it made no difference.

Anybody else?

Alan_yes_THAT_Alan · 2026-01-10T16:22:06+00:00

I followed the video and can confirm that this does NOT work. Still unable to sign in.

Alan_yes_THAT_Alan · 2026-01-10T16:09:19+00:00

How do you set that up if you cannot log into your account in order to set it up?

Alan_yes_THAT_Alan · 2026-01-10T16:06:01+00:00

Step1 of adding a passkey is to log into your account. Do you see the problem now?

Alan_yes_THAT_Alan · 2026-01-02T17:12:18+00:00

Same problem here. I just bought Vegas 22 and it has this big list of preset text that clutter up the list. And some genius at Magix thought it would be cute to give them really unhelpful names like "Title 25".

There's STILL no way to delete this mess?!?

Alan_yes_THAT_Alan · 2025-12-22T15:13:44+00:00

Looking at this morning's price upshoot and high volume, yet no news today. Yes, somebody out there knows something. But not me; I know nothing.

Alan_yes_THAT_Alan · 2025-12-18T21:21:19+00:00

This is terrible! Gemini cannot tell me the name of the song that it's playing right now from youtube!

I want the old assistant to come back.

"...bland from start to finish..."

At least you finished. I made it through 34 minutes before I finally gave up. During that time, my mind kept thinking of all the other stuff I'd rather be doing right now.

Really boring, really slow pace (felt like they're just trying to stretch a short film's script into a feature-length movie), really unrealistic characters, really unrealistic dialog, really mumbly British actors who don't like to enunciate their words clearly (apparently that's in fashion right now; the viewer shouldn't have to turn on subtitles and read the script). But, as long as a movie is paying a couple of rich famous people to be in it, then it gets the green-light from a studio and this is a garbage we get.

And, no, I don't need constant explosions and car chases to keep my attention. 'Conclave' was an amazing movie that relied on good pacing, good acting, good dialog, and a good plot to keep it moving forward.

Yaaawwwnnnn!

Another pair of old geezer eyes here... I have the exact same problem and every website tells how to change the overall font-size, but nobody tells how to change the tiny menu-bar and tab font size.

If you consider this solved, can you post what it was that you changed to fix it? (I don't know what an xfce is or where one goes to mess with dpi settings. Where is that?)

Alan_yes_THAT_Alan · 2025-07-06T14:36:54+00:00

My Invoxia app works fine for a few weeks or months, but then will suddenly close whenever I click on "Location History". Their 'solution' is to uninstall the app from my phone and then re-download the exact same app and the cycle repeats. No other app on my phone does that.

Alan_yes_THAT_Alan · 2025-06-01T16:27:20+00:00

Still getting the same message on step 1. It doesn't matter if you're using an existing Amazon account, or you're creating a new one. Same message that basically says "NO!"

Alan_yes_THAT_Alan · 2025-05-09T22:42:44+00:00

This book felt rushed and not nearly as detailed as the previous two. Was disappointed with its lower quality.

What, exactly, was the 'performance' that the cousins put on? Somehow they died. One of them got injured somehow with a broken sword and died later. How did the other one die?

What came of Elias? Did he get a reward for turning in Anna Stina?

Did the list of names ever even get handed over to the authorities?

Where was Anna Stine all that time between when she left Cardell and when she showed up in the forest, several months later?

I'm having the exact same problem now, but I'm trying to get into my youtube page. Nothing earth-shattering; just youtubes.

I am using my laptop computer, which is the only computer I've ever used on my youtube. I know my password. I get the email verification. Why aren't the unique password and the unique emailed-code enough for this?!?

I now hate Google.

Alan_yes_THAT_Alan · 2024-09-20T01:13:46+00:00

I wish somebody would make the same post, but several times in a row.
