Google default account not "defaulting"
How do I change the google account that Firefox visits first? Context: I have my work email set up for sync, but whenever I go to any google specific site or tool (Calendar, gmail, docs, etc.) it defaults to my personal account instead of my work account.

Hi Dave, when you are signed in to Gmail, the URL in the address bar should distinguish which of your accounts you are viewing by number: /u/0/ for first user, /u/1/ for second user, etc.
Historically, if you weren't signed in to any accounts, the first account you signed into would be the default account. That one might be the /u/0/ but I don't use multiple Google accounts at the same time, so someone else might know these details better. Either way, if you go to Google without specifying the account, it will use the default account.
Now, if the issue is when signing in, you don't get the expected username suggestions, that could be a problem with Firefox's password manager.

Well, that's simple enough. I have signed out of competing addresses, and see how it behaves once I need to sign into a second for any reason. Thank you.
