When I try to access a movie or get further info by clicking the movie's pic, I get this message, despite deleting my cache and cookies, closing and opening Firefox, shutting and opening my MacBook. Any suggestions most appreciated!

That shouldn't have happened.

It looks like something went wrong on our side. Let's find you a great video to watch instead.

I love FF and I appreciate the intentions behind the new update for quick/custom search engines in Firefox 140, but I can't help but notice that the new UI for custom search engines requires the user to manually click on various buttons and does not allow one to navigate the process via keyboard only. (Unless I'm missing something?) Prior to this UI update, I was able to fully navigate the drop-down and select my custom search engine of choice using only my arrow keys and enter key. Now, the "search with XYZ" button that pops up if you type the site name is only selectable if you click on it, and cannot be highlighted with the arrow keys.

I am not personally disabled in a way that prevents me from using my trackpad, but having to stop what I'm typing and go out of my way to click on various UI elements is a real stymie in terms of flow, ease of use, and efficiency. At least for me.

Is there some kind of secret key combo I can use? Or an about:config setting to enable keyboard navigation in custom searches? Is it a bug? Or simply the removal of a feature?

I hope I will be able to use my arrow keys to select my search engine again in the future— Thanks

Hi! I was buying a book on a well known webshop. I used my Android Galaxy A25 and Firefox browser. When I was almost ready after IDentification on the payment webservice, also well known, I got a message that I was expected to choose a certificate. There were two to choose from: gak_ec_alias and gak_rsa_alias. How can I know that this is a serious safe action for me to do? I know certificates are used for encryption of communication or transactions, but this is the first time I've been asked to choose one! How shall I treat this? Is the web shop missing a certificate, or Is firefox missing a certificate? Is the certificate going to be used everywhere I surf, or just on the webshop where I bought the book, or on the payment webservice?

Greatful for answers! Janne

I suspect there is no fix and I (possibly) can restore from backups, but I would sure like to know what the issue is.

I tried retrieving an e-mail from the "folder" where I kept e-mails from 2023. The "index" one sees displayed for the folder had e-mails from Jan-Mar of 2023, but Thunderbird froze when I tried to open any of them. I tried the repair function (which I imagine is meant to rebuild the .msf file), but after than the index contained nothing from Jan-Mar. I opened both the .msf file and the no-extension file in Notepad, but I see nothing from those months.

Any clues/help would be appreciated.

Is this issue a bug or does it require some configuration to be enabled?

Hi : I have a website that, except for its Index page, is made up entirely of .PDFs. These .PDFs are created from MS Word documents. I noticed that when viewing the site in Firefox, the author of the .PDF pages in the tabs was given as : Microsoft Word [filename]. Accordingly, I made sure the Word files had my name hardcoded into the Info section so that it would be same for all documents I created. I then changed the metadata of the .PDF files to include my name as author and the title of the file. However, 'Microsoft Word [filename]' still appeared in the Firefox tabs. I have no idea where Firefox is getting this information from. Curiously, when I look at my website on Microsoft's Edge browser, the tabs have the correct information : 'Patrick Kearney [filename]'. Any help making Firefox behave in the same way would be much appreciated. I have no desire to switch my browser to Edge or anything else. Thanks in advance.

I have recently updated my PC and I have re-installed Thunderbird. However, Thunderbird will not allow more than 2 GMail accounts to be set-up. I get Unable to log in at server. Probably wrong configuration, username pr password. It is a gmail account, so the system automatically recognizes it. I have made double and triple sure that the user email and password is correct. I have even made my password smaller to ensure it is not the length of my password that Thunderbird has a problem with. Furthermore I have made sure that the outgoing server label is also unique. Despite all that, I am still unable to add a third Gmail account. Can you please help

Hello,

I am trying to download a few JPG images from Meetup.com. Here is an example URL:

https://secure.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/3/5/0/a/highres_528673578.jpeg

This is CLEARLY a JPG image from the URL. However, when I right click on the image to Save As the only choice given is AVIF! I cannot open or use AVIF files. As you know the conversion process is LOSSY so trying to convert BACK to a JPG format is not recommended.

It is fine if Firefox and other browsers want to use AVIF format internally but you should, at least, give users the OPTION of downloading the native format.

So how do I fix/configure Firefox to provide the native JPG file download?

Thanks, Steve

Prior to FF140 the context menu button labels left placeholders on the left that aligned the labels with extension buttons. Currently the labels moved to the left edge, which is a bit annoying after them being in the same place for years.

Was this a planned change or is this a bug I should report to bugzilla?

Curiously, if there is at least one item with a checkbox (e.g. this textbox) all items return to their old alignment. I find that even more distracting.

Current Thunderbird under Linux Mint 22.1 SMTP password issue

I recently became the webmaster for our local American Legion post and built a website through Hostinger. That service also offered a cost-effective email solution for us and I've created a number of email accounts for our office positions and some individuals by name. At the level of service we have with Hostinger, our website/email account domain is not the same as the email servers.

That's ordinarily not a problem, since most modern email applications can either pull domain email hostnames from registration records or gives the user a manual process to enter the email hostnames directly (in our case an IMAP and SMTP hostname belonging to Hostinger).

I had no problem using the manual configuration that Thunderbird supports to set up my first American Legion email address. Email was received immediately and testing outgoing email worked fine. Adding a second American Legion email address seemed to go well - email messages came in immediately - but the outbound testing failed with error messages that the sending client was not recognized.

That sounded like Thunderbird was not trying to authenticate with a password on the SMTP outbound even though I had indicated in the manual setup that a password was required (same as I had in the first American Legion account setup).

I checked the Thunderbird settings to see what saved passwords were recorded in the Password Manager and sure enough their were three IMAP host passwords but only two SMTP host passwords (the missing SMTP host password was for the second American Legion account).

I completely deleted the second American Legion account and tried again - just in case I had accidentally indicated no password needed for SMTP the first time - and got the same result (IMAP host password created, but not SMTP). I then tried deleting both American Legion accounts and then adding them back with the second account being added first this time. At least the problem was consistent - the first account added had both an IMAP host password record and a SMTP host password created; the second account created had only its IMAP host password saved.

I couldn't find a menu item for adding a host password in the Save Passwords settings menu; manually removing the IMAP password to force the system to ask for the password again only ended up with the IMAP host password being added back into the TBird Password Manager.

The version Linux Mint reports for Thunderbird is 1:128.11.1esr+linuxmint1+xia. As far as I can tell the issue only comes up when Thunderbird cannot auto-detect the email servers on its own and it only has a problem when more than one email account has to be added for a manually configured email domain.

Is there a TBird menu item I'm missing that would let me add the SMTP host password for the second account manually? Failing that, is this a known issue that has already been fixed by Thunderbird and should be forthcoming after that version is released as an update by the Linux Mint team?
