I used to have loads of inactive tabs and usually around 9-10 active taps and sometimes 30 tabs in total and it was all good.

Start with (I think) version 109 it when I have around 9-10 tabs (no inactive) the firefox automatically closes itself right after I start it.

Doesn't leave me any chance to even close tabs or do anything.

I tried: force stop then clear cache and still happens.

If on top of those above I also do clear recent apps, it might work.

I noticed it would work if it doesn't have the thumbnails of tabs which might imply that when it doesn't have other tabs cached it works fine.

I write my e-mails in a green font. That is how I used to do it in Outlook and as soon as I started writing it stayed as green after setting it up. However I haven't found a way to do that in Thunderbird that is satisfactory. The main way I see mentioned is changing the setting in Composition > HTML Style > Take out use reader's colors and set green as text, however this also changes the color of the Thunderbird signature and of the messages being replied. My wish is to only make green whatever I write for the message, not the full e-mail. Is there a way to set it to a color?

If this setting isn't in standard Thunderbird a plugin suggestion would also work! What I wish would be equivalent to having the green font color selected at the start of any e-mail with everything else default!

Many thanks,

Kael

Hi, To start exporting Firefox Password Data to a file, the "Login data of the Windows User Account" has to be entered (pls. refer to attachment). What is meant by "Windows User Account"? Thanks so much for your help. Hans - presently in Munich, Bavaria, Germany

PS: I'm using the German Version of Firefox - so I translated back to English.

Why is Autofill for cards and addresses not available in sweden... what is this madness. I will revert back to chrome if it isnt fixed

how isnt it fixed already ????

I am unable to use the Firefox feature to store a saved credit card. When I attempt to do so I enter all the CC details accordingly, but clicking the "save" button results in no action taken. The cc modal just sits there and nothing happens no matter how many times you click save. Please advise.

I have been using a program, BackupThunderbird.exe, that produces a .zip file. Do you know if this does essentially the same thing as exporting the Thunderbird profile?

I want to print out my login id's and passwords, but that means it has to be exported. FF wanted.either my Windows username and password or my Google.name and password, but neither worked. It seems silly that someone with access to my PC could.get my passwords one at a time, presumably focussing on financial accounts, but that I can't get.the.whole list to review and send to my next-of-kin and.executor. I had printed out a listing just a few months ago and did not.need any such additional security steps. I also wouldn't have opted in, if given a choice. What can I do to get access?

When my desktop Icons get scrambled or gone in Windows 7, I delete the Icon Cache file in Users\My name\Appdata\Local. (IconCache.db) I have been doing this on and off for years. I had to do this today and all my Desktop URL Icons were missing. The Urls are still there, but they all just have the default Windows Icon. I have tried everything I know to get them back but no luck. I have tried just going to the site and Book Marking it again, but that sometimes works but most of the time not. I copy the new book mark and paste too the Desktop and still, just MS Default. I remember at one time I could get to all these Icons. But now I cannot find them.. I don't know what happened but, Please Help..!! I need my Icons...

Fire Fox 109.0.1 (64-bit) Windows 7 (64 Bit)

Have successfully installed and used Thunderbird on new desktop computers multiple times, but can't do final step(s) on this one. Mail provider is Gmail, ISP is (Emporia KS) ValuNet Fiber, using Windows 10 Pro, Malwarebytes anti-virus and firewall. Download and installation of latest version of Thunderbird works fine, including automatic recognition of account. As shown by attached images, normal home page is present, except dot beside "Inbox" at extreme upper left keeps on bouncing, and (attached image of) Google sign-in window immediately appears. Use of Google password then results in error messages of "Authentication failure while connecting to server" or "Network Protocol Error". As shown by attached image, SMTP settings are correct. All other Internet (via both WiFi and Ethernet) work fine, as does installation and use of (non-preferred) Outlook mail provider. Troubleshooting efforts of multiple attempts of uninstall and new downloads, obtaining new Google password, manual setting of server settings (including trying POP), and shutdown of Malwarebytes have proven ineffective. ValuNet Fiber ISP has checked incoming service and pronounces it in good order. What am I missing? Thanks.

Hey Firefox Agent: Well I just wrote this out in a prior communication, but it got lost when I tried to figure out how to provide: Troubleshooting Information (optional):

Okay, so here we go again. But I am not going to provide: Troubleshooting Information (optional):

Here's the problem: In my Hotmail account, I am getting email "cards" (entries in my Hotmail account) that say: Unusual Sign-In Activity. Now recently, I spent a lot of time finally contacting and spending time with a Microsoft Tech Support agent. This agent helped me change the password on my main Hotmail account. Yet, I am still getting these annoying email "cards" in my Hotmail account. Now, I've analyzed these various email "cards" and I discovered a few things relating to Firefox. Here's what I found on all (5) of these separate email "cards": Sign-in details Country/region: Australia IP address: Please note I eliminated the IP address here because I don't know if it safe to do so or if I will be compromising my computer in any way. In order to share this IP address, I need to know if I am now dealing with an official Firefox support agent. If so and if it is necessary to share the IP address then please let me know in your follow up response. Date: 11/1/2022 4:46 PM (GMT) Platform: Windows Browser: Firefox Today, by the way, is: Sun 5 Feb 23 Time now: 4:16p Est at the time of writing this here line. It is interesting that the email "cards", all of them, have the same date and time: 11/1/2022 4:46 PM (GMT) There's something not right about receiving email "cards" from back in November 2022.

Now if you--the Firefox Support Agent--know what I can do to resolve and stop this annoying problem then please let me know by sending me an email to my email address. You have it from my Firefox account. Gosh, this is such an annoying problem. If you can help then please do so. Thank you.

I am (unsuccessfully) trying to install Firefox on my new MacBook Pro M. I have dowloaded the .dmg file, have dragged it to Applications, but then nothing happens and when I click it I am sent back to the initial installation image i.e. drag the .dmg file to Applications. Any idea on how to deal with this issue ?

Thanks in advance

Just installed Thunderbird on a new Windows 10 PC and exported the Thunderbird Profile from my old Windows 7 PC to a "Thunderbird_profile_backup.zip" file, copying that file to a USB stick for transfer to the new PC. But when Importing that zip file into Thunderbird on the new PC, and only selecting "Mail" to Import, only the top Inbox, Sent, Trash, & Drafts mail folders (with files) transferred - no subfolders with their files. I couldn't find any option to include subfolders during the Export or Import procedure. What could be the problem? (Zip file was less than 2GB)

Thunderbird version 102.7.0 is not working correctly or has wrong built in defaults. When creating a new email the (To field) does not look in the contacts file for email address starting with those entered characters to give you a choice to select from. This was standard function of older version of Thunderbird. Even after manual entering (TO field) the just entered email address is not being automatically added to the contact list like previous TB versions did. This is a real show stopper.

I created a new list with 2 emails. There is a default button that I cannot disable so the email is only going to the address with the default button checked. How do I make the email go to both addresses? Thank you.

For the last 3 days, T'bird has been extremely slow when I click on a folder to look at my mail: on the tab, there's just the back-and-forth dot, and in the program, it's just the hourglass. I've shut don & restarted, also shut down & restarted laptop...but still having these issues. Using Windows 11 on PC laptop.
