With the moving of Cox emails to Yahoo would it be feasible for Thunderbird to put an instruction list(with screenshots) of how to get all our TB email accounts from Cox to TB? Do we have to delete all our TB email accounts and re-enter them into TB under the new Yahoo or can we just change the server settings on the existing Cox settings? If just changing server settings what are the settings for the new yahoo? All my accounts are IMAP so if instructions could be made, maybe one for IMAP and one for POP for those who use either. Thank you

I have used Firefox since late 2004, and nothing else. No problems until now.


Android 14 and Firefox mobile I think version 123.


It is updated. When I'm on a website, like USPS and accessesed Informed Delivery, I tell Firefox to Add To Home screen so I can quickly access mail and packages coming today.


Has always worked fine. Now, none of my manufacturered/created Firefox shortcuts will do anything. I cleared the Firefox cache, and forced stopped. I don't know if cleaning the data or reinstalling the whole app will help.


I then deleted data and uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, but nothing changed.


I tried earlier versions but got a notification off it wasn't compatible with my version on Android.


I'm recovering from a stroke and these lost shortcuts stored on my homescreen were vital to communicating with my doctors, therapists, outpatient rehab, hospitals, etc. I'm lost without them.


Any suggestions or reasons for this are appreciated. Thank you

Everyone says my audio sounds distorted in google video chat. I had been using it for months without issue on Firefox, and then I got a new Apple computer and people started to tell me I had this issue. In order to isolate the issue I tried going on Teams Video chat and Zoom video chat and people said my audio sounded fine there. Then I opened Google Video Chat in Google Chrome and people said my audio sounded fine there too. Lately, it's only when I'm on Firefox trying to use Google Video Chat (aka Google Meet) to video chat and people say my audio sounds way too distorted to hear what I'm saying. I restarted my computer, I even checked for the latest browser, which is up to date, I can't figure out how to fix this. Sounds like a firefox issue. Any ideas?

I made the mistake of installing Norton Private Browser on my Win10 laptop, and it took over the browser extensions as the default program. I tried making Firefox the default browser again and Windows took me to the Settings menu. Firefox is no longer in the list of browsers. Is there a way to fix this situation? Thanks.

Dear FF/Mozilla:

I've experienced a number of issues where I'm unable to do banking transactions using the FF browser. In one case, Wells Fargo bill pay does not work (but works fine with MS Edge); in another case, an international money link payment to a vendor in the UK would not go through using Firefox (but did first time with MS Edge). In yet another case, Firefox won't load webpage photos for items for sale on the site www.telescope.com - the page loads with descriptions but photos would not load (I just tried it and, nada). This remains the case even after my VPN is disconnected.

I've used FF for several years now without too much trouble but with this ongoing non-functionality of FF, I'm tempted to migrate to MS Edge or a browser that is supported more widely.

Any help or advice? Thanks, Blaine

I just sent an email and had to go back to it to check something (which I do a lot) and it does not show on my sent list. I can find it doing a search for it and I see it (and 3 others) under search and it says it is in sent file, but actually none of the 4 emails on this search now can be found in the sent folder. And they all did (but the one from tonight) 2 days ago.

I now wonder if other emails have been lost, and can be accessed only by doing a search. But I need to have the emails in the serch folder as I go back to many of them a lot and all the time. Now I will not be able to find them unless I can remember who i sent it to. And I wonder how many more of them are lost and I just have no idea.

Any ideas? Has there been an update in the last week??

What can I do to get these emails (and maybe many others) back?

And I just copied this message to save and put it in an email to myself and sent it and it is not there.

Hello,

I recently moved from Chromium based browsers to Firefox and, as my title indicates, I've been facing issues with youtube playlists on two different computers so far, may it be in normal windows or in private ones (where the only addon left running would be ublock origin).

The autoplay does not work in a predictable way. While the browser does reach the next video in the playlist once the previous one ended, more often that not, the video won't play. As I said, the behavior is unpredictable. There are times when it'll work right of the bat, but stop working after a few videos, and there are times when it won't be working at all from the very beginning.

I did enable FF's autoplay setting (or so it would seem from what I can see), for it says:"Autoplay: Allow audio and video" when I click on the icon next to URL bar.

I have not yet tested with my addblocker disabled, for ublock origin being fairly widely used I assumed I would have ran into far more issues akin to mine when I googled my issue.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Cordially,

I really am getting fed-up with Thunderbird which is getting increasingly user unfriendly and more and more geekified, e.g. the enforced belief on users that every user wants threading. To add to the gneral irritation, half a dozen emails have suddenly vanished from the folder they had been moved to.

Here's what happened.

1. The emails were moved from the iinbox to the folder.

2. They were unthreaded.

3. They then disappeared.

A search has not found them and opening and checking all folders has not found them.

So, two questions:

1, Where are they?

2. How do I get them back?

Starting about a week ago, when I use Firefox 124.01 on my Windows 10 PC to visit Ebay, the pages show in Portuguese, and the country shows as Brazil. I'm in the USA. This problem does not occur when I use Chrome, Opera or Edge. Any idea about why this has happened and what I can do to fix it. On Ebay, I can manually change the language and location, but if I close Firefox, the problem returns. I'm using the version of FF that keeps no cookies or history. Thanks

I have a hotmail.com address. Until recently, it worked well as webmail, plus also from TB on laptop, via IMAP and SMTP.

A few days ago, the sending function via SMTP stopped working (not IMAP); and webmail is still fine. I've tried a lot to solve it, but to no avail.

My guess is that MS is to blame, but don't know how to reach someone better-than-hotline there.

Details see annex; OS is Win10, TB is 115.9

Would someone be familiar with this kind of problem? According to my traditional european quality idea, best should be to get in touch with an MS technician with access to the syslog, to hear what the system's response to connection attempts is - but this seems to be precluded? I wonder what alternatives there might be?

Since I upgraded from Kaspersky Internet Security to Kaspersky Plus, my Protected Browser version of Firefox has lost track of my current Protected bookmarks and stored passwords - but the bookmarks and passwords in the standard (i.e. not Protected Browser) Firefox remain the current set. Unfortunately this is a different set, so I no longer have access to the Protected passwords etc. Although Firefox has just updated to 124.0.1 the About display in Protected Browser insists "Firefox is being updated by another instance". Kaspersky have studied the GetSystemInfo report and cannot find anything amiss, so is Firefox causing the problem? e.g. where in Firefox did Kaspersky manage to find a three-years-out-of-date set of bookmarks and passwords?
