Following on from the archived question "How do I reinstate notification of number of new emails in my taskbar icon" at https://support.mozilla.org/mk/questions/1395000 . This question is solved and archived, but I had trouble understanding the solution and I think others may also, so I have found another solution to add the new emails (red numbers) to the Thunderbird tray icon on Windows.

Tools>Options>Add-ons Manager> (search) Windows Taskbar Unread Badge (--Put an unread mail count badge on the Thunderbird icon in the Windows taskbar--) > Add to Thunderbird.

I have been using Thunderbird for many, many years now and been happy with it.

However last 6 months or so, it has been constantly crashing, often several times a day. Crash reports almost never get sent as it says there is a technical error.

Using a HP Spectre 360 (7 years old) with Windows 10. All windows updates have been applied, and constantly virus checked etc. No other programs giving me grief like Thunderbird which is the most important program. Before Thunderbird I used Eudora which was also great. Always regretted changing to Thunderbird.

I am now over it and Thunderbird. How do I transfer all my emails, attachments etc going back 10-12 years or so to a new email program.

Any suggestions regarding a better email client. Don't want to use Outlook. Have been looking at Proton Mail.

I'm using Firefox on Mac (version 133.0).

When I use cmd+f to search for text on a webpage, if I don't find the term I'm looking for and then switch to another tab and press cmd+f again to look for the same term, Firefox will usually have truncated my search term and now I get a bunch of hits that I don't want and will have to modify the search term back to what I originally entered. Here is an example: say I cmd+f for "apple" and don't get a hit. I then switch to another tab, press cmd+f again and now the search term is no longer "apple" but "appl".

Can I stop this autocorrect type behavior?

Thanks

Until two days ago TB downloaded and sent emails quickly. Now downloading is delayed. The subject shows up but when you click it shows nothing until it finishes downloading. Similar delay with sending. When I send it takes about 30-45 seconds to complete the sending of an email. I have not made any adjustments to the settings.

How can I resolve this? Thank you

Thunderbird for Android just installed, would love to use this instead of current Outlook client. Long email threads showing as unacceptably indented, down to one letter per line some cases. Occurs TB android but less so Outlook android, and TB desktop. One workaround is to view emails as plain text on TB desktop, they then wrap beautifully. Any plans to allow plain text render on TB android? Or any idea how to view badly indented emails so they fill the pane? Thank you for the good work!

On the newest version of Firefox after a full uninstall/reinstall - problem started last night. New install of Firefox didn't sync with my email, but after linking it on desktop via QR code, old passwords were reinstated. opened password manager again, and the problem where my phone accepts the pin or fingerprint, opens password menu for <2 seconds, then asks for pin or fingerprint again.

Menu is also slower than usual to load, causes the phone to hang on a black Firefox background colour screen when loading and only able to be forced to quit if I go back to the home screen, passwords menu comes back on screen if I don't force quit the app (back button goes back to blank passwords screen then asks for login again, android back button does the same.

Discord Voice Chat Stopped Working

For around a week, I've had issues with Discord Voice Chat on Firefox that I don't believe I've had before the latest update. Whenever I try to connect to Voice Chat, I can see Discord picking up my audio, but I can't hear anything from other people in voice chat nor can they hear me. I can hear sounds and music from Discord itself outside of voice chat.

I believe this is a Firefox issue since I can still access Discord Voice Chat through other browsers like Opera.

I've tried downgrading and it still has the same issue, and also going into troubleshooting mode. Nothing has worked, except for deleting Discord's cache, but that stopped working too.

If anyone needs other details let me know and I can provide it to the best of my abilities, thank you

Why are we limited to 12 stock photos to pick from? I understand when this feature just rolled out it was limited, but it's been a while now. When are we going to be able to upload our own images? Also, it'd really be nice incorporate themes like Chrome does where you could pick from something like nature backgrounds that rotate automatically on your new tabs page.

I could also see this option in FirefoxLabs, but when I had to delete Firefox due to a bug on my computer, I could no longer see it in FirefoxLabs. Also, FirefoxLabs used to have an artificial intelligence add-on called ChatBot, but now it is gone. What is the reason?

Windows 11 24H2

On computer restart or program restart, firefox moves all previous windows from primary monitor to secondary monitor.

Before restart, I usually have 10+ windows open on primary monitor and 1-3 windows open on secondary monitor. After restart, all windows are opened on secondary monitor and I manually move them each to the primary monitor. It seems like they open on primary monitor, but immediately move to the secondary monitor.

If I make each individual window a small window on its corresponding monitor and shut down firefox, the windows will open on the correct monitor on the next restart...but if those windows are minimized, they will open on the wrong monitor on restart.

Is there any way to fix this or automate the window moving process?

Thanks

I really like Firefox - I just have to say that up front. I don't want to have to change to another browser, but...

I see articles going back to at least 2020 about CPU usage running up to 100% and multiple processes open that at least double or triple the number of tabs that are open. My recent experience is that this phenomenon is getting worse and I'm wondering if it will ever be resolved, or if I have to look elsewhere.

Thanks
