382 / 5 000 Hello, Push mails after importing QR code of accounts from thunderbird PC do not work despite the configuration: - deactivation of synchronization - activation of push There is no visual or audio notification. These notifications only work by creating the accounts manually. Thunderbird 128.4.3 esr Android 8.1 in Motorola 5 Any idea? Thanks

Hello,

For years I've been able to watch a video in one tab and open a new tab. I could hear the video playing while I opened a new tab. Suddenly today the video pauses as soon as I click away to a NEW tab.

Oddly enough, if I have any other tabs already opened, when I first click on one of those, I can then open a new tab without the video pausing. It's only if I go directly from a YouTube video (that's already playing) that it pauses when trying to open a new tab. Odd.

Why is this happening? and so suddenly? At least I have a work around but this is so weird.

Any ideas out there?

Thanks, Andre'a

BTW - Is "Settings" the best topic? or should I've chosen something else (like Performance)?

I recently moved from one email hosting company to a new one and in doing so Thunderbird (128.4.3esr (64-bit)) has become very corrupted. I attach a screen shot of the folders, which shows imap folders in local folders and the wrong order of email folders in imap. How can I resolve this please?

I am trying to download videos from the LoC. These are free and open access, with a little download button on the video page. When I click to download, the video opens in a new screen, but never downloads to my computer. Same thing with internet archive; click on the correct file format in the download section and the window refreshes to play and doesn't download. I changed my settings to always ask what to do with downloads, to send files to my download folder and tried to select the actions for each kind of file format. Still having the same issue.

I have a Google docs on my google account that I access 5-10 times per day. For many years, when I typed the first four characters of the document name Firefox would suggest the document via its autocomplete feature so all I had to do open to the document was press Enter. I learned it via muscle memory. Over the years it saved me a ton of time.

Then about 9 months ago I signed up for insurance from a company whose name starts with the same four characters. Firefox immediately started suggesting the insurance website instead of my document. I don't know why Firefox thinks I'd rather go to this insurance website. My document is bookmarked but the insurance website is not. I visit my document 100X as often as I visit the insurance website.

I've tried to find settings that will bring my document back to the top of the list. The most useful setting I was found was disabling "Browsing History" under "Address Bar - Firefox Suggest". This removed the insurance website from my suggestions, but it did not bring my document back to the top. I found a help document that says that I should be able to remove the insurance website specifically from "Firefox Suggest" by clicking the three dots next to the name in my drop down address bar and select "remove", but for some reason the insurance website doesn't have the three dots next to it (other suggestions listed in the drop down address bar do have the three dots, so I think I'm looking in the right place). I doubt this would help anyway since I have already removed the insurance website from my suggestions and my document still hasn't been restored as the default.

Is there anyway to access more specific settings that would restore Firefox's original behavior?

Ich habe verschiedene Onlinekurse. In meinem aktuellen Klavierkurs sind Videos zum abspielen enthalten. Mit dem letzten Update des Firefoxbrowsers können die Videos nicht mehr gestartet werden. Mit welcher Einstellung läßt sich das beheben? Vielen Dank für eine baldige Hilfe. Gruß Reiner

Are there any plans to make configuration of the setting "network.proxy.system_wpad" available via ADMX (grouppolicy under Windows)? We need to deploy this to 100 computers and I still have no idea how.

Feature was introduced in FF 125: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-enterprise-125-release-notes We currently use 128.4.0esr.

We need this configuration, so Firefox also uses "automatic configuration" which is set in system settings.

I have updated the Firefox to 133.0 (Build #2016056951), hg-24fce2fbde95+GV: 133.0-20241118181856n AS: 133.0. When I open new tab, and open any website, the default is set to "Desktop Mode", how do I reset it to normal default mode?

On a particular webpage NCL cruises ( SHORE EXCURSIONS ) on a page where excursion items are listed . On the bottom of the page states this : 1-12 of 24. NEXT When you click NEXT it should now go to the next page showing 13-24...It does not This function works on Microsoft Edge & Google Chrome.....Cannot find any proper settings to accomplish this function. THxs On Microsoft Edge it was the Pop-Up / Redirect setting " Blocked " with NCL as the exception

Probably an odd question. I dismissed a sponsored link accidentally on the new tab page that I do use, so I want to get it back as a sponsored link. If I'm going to the site anyway, firefox should get whatever cut it can. How do I restore a dismissed sponsored link? Thanks

Tabs for my website URL, once assigned to a now-deleted container, keep crashing. Deactivating "Container" add-on did not help. My URL opens fine on other computers, other browsers. It seems permanently contaminated by a bad container assignment. No other tabs crash. Help!

I'm migrating a bunch of PDFs from an old Windows 8.a computer to a new Windows 11. I located a matrix under settings that offers some choice as to how FF was to handle downloaded PDFs. There are three options: Save, Open, Ask. I want to save only (Opening slows down the migration process). I selected Save in the drop down menu, but FF continue to Open. Can't continue until I solve this problem.

Thanks

Hey There,

Hope everyone is doing great!

The body search feature is missing in my Thunderbird. Searching for any text that I know appears in a body also returns no results. How do I enable this?

Please let me know if it's a setting that prevents this option from showing up. ( Just a thought, if it is some setting, could it be grayed out instead with a tool tip text to show why it's grayed out instead of removing the option completely? )

Cheers, Tom

I recently switched from FF 116 to ESR. (I wasn't allowing updates until I had video difficulties) I just wanted my browser to work and be simple; I hate changes, especially some of the things Mozilla bombards us with in updates. (I wish I could choose what I want and not be forced to accept all of it.) To solve my video problems, I had done a refresh with extreme trepidation and that didn't help, so I decided to be on a new version of FF/ ESR because I was nervous about the latest FF. I only understand tweaking in config and adding extensions. I don't know anything about CSS, and I don't want to. :) I did change the density setting in config and chose that via 'customize toolbar.' The density is not compact enough for me. Before in regular FF, I had a tight look to my bookmarks as they dropped down. Now the vertical spaces are wider; the density is not enough. I can't find a way to make it 'tighter' like I had it before in regular FF. (I don't feel like switching back. Sigh...) Are there some other settings or an app that can make the change I am looking for?

(I can't take a screen shot because as soon as I touch a place away from the drop down, the drop down disappears.)

The print screen has only one option to 'Save to PDF' and I want to replace that to 'Print' I've checked the settings and everything for email in there except 'Print'. How do I get to a setting screen where I can make this change. I am old and not computer savvy so please give me every step so I can finally print attachments. Thank You

I'm using a X13 ThinkPad with 1920x1080 resolution on a 13'3 display with Linux (Arch) and XFCE desktop. For the best results I've increased the XFCE's DPI to 134 and fonts sizes to 10. It looks like the fonts of the size ~13 without DPI change. It's fine, and applications like Firefox like those settings.

In Thunderbird I've set the font size (interface) to 12 and in Settings the default font sizes for Latin and Other Writing Systems to 12 (both) and finally the interface font as well as plain text email and HTML e-mails without font sizes specified explicitly look natively and perfectly.

But there are some senders using clients that generate HTML e-mails and specify the font explicitly as 'font-size=12pt' in their body by default. The same as my 12 so everything should be fine. Unfortunately font in those e-mails is really HUUUUGE! I'm wondering if there is some setting that allows custom scaling but only the HTML messages. Or some pt to px custom scaling for HTML? Or some maximal size allowed in HTML?

I just had a suggestion regarding settings that you set. I would like to know if there is any feature being worked on to be able to save all your settings (or maybe even back up) to your login? or back them up to a file that can be imported later? or is there one that i'm missing? I have a custom toolbar and any time I log in to a different computer where I have to install firefox again...I would rather have an import function for all my settings/toolbars
