The list of previously visited sites in firefox windows seems to have shrunk in some recent update of firefox. Now, when I click the address bar I only get 5 options, the first being search with google and the remaining 4 being previously visited sites. Used to be that list was much longer. Is there a way to customize this, or revert it back to where it contains 10+ items?

Just noticed the book mark banner under the URL line. It is taking up screen space. How do I get rid of it? How did it get displayed? Did some searching but no positive results. Not sure what to search for, definitely not book mark. If I delete the items from the banner are they deleted from my list of book marks. Some of these\book marks I do not remember saving? Where did they come from, some AI search or paid for vendor adds?

I prefer the tabs be below the bookmark bar, and successfully modified the CSS file to do this some time back. Now update 133 has once again pushed them up below the menu bar. What do I have to do to get them back where I want them this time? And why can't you just leave the tab location preference alone when doing updates?

I am trying to set-up a filter that matches e-mails having all their contacts (sender, recipients, ...) from a single fixed domain (e.g. company.tld). It means that any e-mail having at least 1 contact (sender/recipient) not from company.tld would not trigger the filter. Is there a way to do this with standard Thunderbird filters? I also tried to use a regexp on the header with FiltaQuilla extension but it is not trivial.

Any help would be welcome. Thanks, Olivier

After upgrading to FIREFOX 133 everything became a mess !!

Most pages will RANDOMLY not load and show “Security Connection Failed” message, indicating mostly one of this two errors Error code: PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR Error code: SSL_ERROR_RX_RECORD_TOO_LONG Additionally and consistently trying to access Amazon makes it think I am a Robot, and shows a page with a Captcha but the images do not load (Image attached) 1Password fails in some pages (Such as CNN), the page shows an error message when userid & password are filled in, rendering it useless. NONE of this happen on previous versions of Firefox or on EDGE with the updated Norton360

I have tried: - Uninstalling, deleting all files and re-installing both Firefox and Norton 360 - Deleting the Firefox profile and starting from zero - Using Firefox without any Extension, it works for a while but then fails (memory overlay issue ?) - Loading a few extensions, again works for a while but then fails. If more trhan 4 or 5 extensions are loaded the problem is immediate (memory overlay issue ?) - Turning off Norton sometimes helps get to a page, and when turning it back on keeps working … Sometimes it does not - - Checked all indicaytions on support article https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/secure-connection-failed-firefox-did-not-connect without any luck WHAT TO DO ?

First of all, why are there two Other Bookmarks folders? When I add a new bookmark, my routine is to open Manage Bookmarks, drag the new bookmark to the second (lower) Other bookmarks folder, then choose Sort > Sort by Name. I have also tried A > Z Sort Order. The sorts work within the Manage Bookmarks window, but they are not saved automatically, and I do not see a way to save them manually. Also, if I go to the Other Bookmarks folder on the far right side of the Bookmarks Toolbar, I have to scroll down to the bottom of the list to see my new bookmarks. They are not in ascending alphabetical order the way I want them.

Hi there- After a round with ChatGPT and many o' google searches, I still have not found the reason why the text color change tool in the formatting bar in Thunderbird (128.5.1esr) for Mac is not working.

Specifically, I see other HTML formatting working when composing an email, but I do not see any color changes. I have enabled and disabled the formatting bar; changed the sending format between Plain and HTML; unchecked Default Text Colors....and a few more steps I may be forgetting.

Any help here would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi,

Please see the attached image.

In the header section of the compose window, the header fields and field labels are indented from the left edge of the window. This design wastes space and reduces the space available for the "From", "To" and "Subject" fields. The designers seemed to assume that everyone would use a very wide compose window. But text is composed and read more easily in a narrower column of text. The attached image shows a typical width in my use. Note that the sender's e-mail address does not even appear and the sender's e-mail account name is truncated.

Question 1: Why was the window designed this way? (Am I not understanding something?)

Question 2: Is there some way to move field labels and fields, perhaps with a setting in the Config Editor, to the left edge of the window?

Question 3: How does a person suggest/request a design change?

Many thanks for any help.

Hello

I use Firefox 132.0.1 under Fedora 14 Linux. Whenever I click an urls in another application (e.g. Libreoffice, Keepass...) a new tab is opened in Firefox (according to Firefox's settings), but Firefox itself does not pop up in the foreground, it remains in the background. I highly appreciate the setting 'open links in tabs instead of new windows'. But FF only comes to foreground in case I deactivate 'open links in tabs instead of new windows'. How can I prevent FF to stay in the background in case 'open links in tabs instead of new windows' is enabled?

Good morning, I had asked a question early on Saturday, but was unavailable the rest of the weekend so just now responding to associate Corey Bryan's answer. I had gotten a message that I am using an unsupported version and they recommend downloading the latest stable version. He said it appears that I'm on the "Release" channel and most likely want to be on the ESR channel. I also mentioned that I am a cave-man when it comes to anything computer and am very skittish about making any changes as I don't how to straighten out any errors that might occur. He asked me where I installed Thunderbird from and the answer is that I don't know. It was an IT guy that did it many years ago. So I guess my questions are, if I've been using this version for years, do I need to or should I update it? If so, if I click on the latest stable version of Thunderbird, will that change anything on my computer, aside from getting the newer version of T-Bird? And will my e-mails in Thunderbird look any different? Thanks very much for the help. Tony
