Dear Mozilla Support,

I am experiencing an issue with Firefox when trying to log in to my company’s intranet (Bravida Sverige AB). The login process requires authentication via Microsoft Authenticator. However, every time I close and reopen Firefox, I am prompted to log in again.

According to the support team at my company, this behavior is not expected. When using Google Chrome, I remain logged in even after restarting the browser, but this is not the case with Firefox.

Could you please help me troubleshoot this issue? I suspect it might be related to session management or browser settings, but I’m unsure how to resolve it. I have re installed mozilla firefox.

Thank you in advance for your assistance!

Best regards, Björn

The missing side bars very briefly appear (less than half a second) when the site is loading, however, then they disappear for no known reason !!

I very briefly logged into the Firefox browser on a shared work PC using my personal account. I immediately logged back out again, and even checked to make sure it was not remembering my email/suggesting it for future sign-ins.

The next day when I went on Firefox on this PC, it was not signed in (on the top right settings bar it said "sign in" rather than showing my email, and clicking this brought me to the sign on page) but it was still showing my shortcuts and all my bookmarks.

Having gone onto my usual laptop, it's also synced the bookmarks that were on this work PC (with no account associated) to my personal account. It's like it's synced them entirely even though I never pressed sync, was only signed in for a minute and signed out fully afterwards.

This is a huge privacy breach for me, since it means my personal information contained in the bookmarks was on display for the dozen people who used that PC before I noticed what had happened. I deleted all the bookmarks on this PC, cleared cache and cookies completely and it did not seem to be showing anything anymore, but I'm not confident it's scrubbed permanently since it never should have been showing those things in the first place.

I realise I'm just going to be told I must not have signed out properly, but I really did. I'm paranoid about these things and I clearly remember doing it.

Surely if I sign out, my personal things like bookmarks should not be available to anyone using Firefox on that PC in the future? I'm struggling to understand why this happened and how to keep my account safe now.

I recently installed Thunderbird on a new installation of Ubuntu 24.04 using the "Installing Thunderbird manually" instructions. Everything works fine except that Thunderbird doesn't want to use the Thunderbird icon in the dock. Thunderbird opens and runs fine when I click on the Thunderbird icon, but it then puts a new default icon on the dock that looks like a gear instead of just "using" the Thunderbird icon to indicate that the application is running. I've attached a screenshot. When I close Thunderbird, the gear icon disappears.

Hello, I've been trying to figure out why my TB program has stopped responding to the email button on my Logitech K270 keyboard. It calls up the Windows Mail 8, but not TB. Everything else on the keyboard works fine, but it will not call up the TB program. I've tried various settings in SetPoint, 6.9, but it won't work. I've tried contacting Logitech, but so far, they've been no help, so I'm hoping somebody here, has run into the same thing, and figured it out. I mean, why would the button work for Windows Mail, but not TB?

Thanks in advance.

I have been trying to connect. I just verified that I followed the directions in:

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/microsoft-oauth-authentication-and-thunderbird-202

I am getting a message I do not see being referenced here. TB is telling me:

"The current command did not succeed. The mail server for account ray@ganymede.org responded: User is authenticated but not connected."

Authenticated but not connected? What the heck?

I have talked to godaddy support several times. They keep saying "You will have to contact the email provider." But they are the email provider. So, any suggestions?

My account is ray@ganymede.org, I am trying to connect to outlook.office365.com and I have the security and authentication all, I believe, set correctly.

I am running Thunderbird snap 128 esr on Ubuntu 24.4. A few days ago the usual alert popped up advising me that a new version of Thunderbird was available. I duly closed the programme, waited a little while and then reopened it. But on checking I found that it was still stuck on 128.4.2, while the release notes say that the latest version is 128.4.4. Yesterday the alert appeared again. I again closed and opened the programme but found it to be still on 12.4.2. The same thing happened again today. Any idea why Thunderbird is apparently not updating? NB: Each day the alert is reducing by one the number of days in which it says Thunderbird will be automatically updated.

I have two installations of Firefox. One windows10 and one Linux. BOTH are doing the same thing on this site https://www.rapidonline.com/

I cannot scroll using the mouse roller. Page up/down doesn't work. Middle click and drag doesn't scroll either. BUT, for the briefest of time, BEFORE the Firefox shield in the address bar, I can scroll.

Hovering over the blue shield shows the text... Blocking social media trackers, cross site tracking cookies, and fingerprinters. Turning the Firefox protection OFF makes no difference, other than the shield is white and struck out. Disabling uBlock origin, or malwarebytes makes no difference. Both my installations do the same BUT, I called a pal who also uses Firefox on Linux and windows and he reports all is well and he uses uBlock, but not malwarebytes.

I have not actively messed with my settings on either platform. Oh, I was told to clear the cache. No joy.

Why does Firefox think it is blocking stuff but turning the protection off makes no difference? Why should two separate installations behave identically? Why does my pal's Firefox using Linux work on this site 100% ? I feel like I am going insane...
