3. Numbered list item The Firefox Task Manager Utility 'Windows Media Framework Audio Decoder is always idle.
4. Numbered list item I've restarted the Windows AudioSrv service and Windows explorer process

Nothing works. Please help.

Hello,

Recently I have upgraded from Thunderbird 102 to 112, and I noticed that the unread and total mail counts which appeared on the right side of the status bar has been disappeared. Exploring options and other menus didn't help. Didn't want to dive into config explorer, because I don't want to tweak settings there much.

Are these counts removed from latest versions, or are they turned off somewhere, so I can turn them on?

Thanks in advance,

Cheers,

H.

I am a long time Thunderbird email user (back to Eudora) and never have had a problem until recently with 115.2.2 . I lost all of the contents of my Sent folder. I see the new Thunderbird sent email folder icon but it is empty.

Please help me find my lost sent emails and tell me how to prevent this from happening again. Thanks you in advance for your thoughts on this issue. chuck hall

I have 3 email accounts on Thunderbird: 2 hotmail, one gmail. the Gmail works after the update. the 2 hotmail account do not send emails since the update. I deleted both accounts and put them back in Thunderbird and still do not send email. They download all the emails and folders without a problem.

what should I do to make them work on Thunderbird?

Firefox is downloading files directly to my Downloads folder instead of asking despite having turned on every setting that says it should ask first. Under about:preferences I have turned on "Always ask you where to save files" under Downloads, and I have set Applications to "Ask whether to open or save files". I have even gone in to about:config and turned off "browser.download.useDownloadDir", but the files are still going directly to my default folder.

I downloaded the new Thunderbird version today and my mail folders are gone. Clicking on the mail icon does nothing. I've checked view-all folders. Nothing. It's automatically downloading email, but I can't see what it's downloaded. Luckily, I can still get into my address book. Also, luckily, I have web access to my six accounts, but I have to check each separately. Help!

Changes/updates occurred today to Thunderbird creating problems. Current Thunderbird version is: 115.2.2 (32-bit) However, computer is: 64-bit running Windows 11

Changes observed:

• Icon on desktop changed
• The left pane no longer shows the number of messages in a folder--only the number of unread messages
• When changing a message filter, the window is too big, and I cannot approve any changes--the buttons at the bottom are too far down and are inaccessible. It is not possible to adjust the window size.

The inability to change the message filters is a major problem. I have tried changing:

• Font size
• View
• Density

I have also tried restarting Thunderbird and rebooting. None of these make any difference.

What should I do?

'Recently updated to TB Ver 115.2.2 and certain older emails won't open(13:20-15:04)? Newer email do open(16:09)...? Total of 7 emails can't be viewed...? Peculiar that the attached screenshot shows 15:04 email time stamp, but the header shows 09:06?

This is the same problem listed below. Recently upgraded to Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS and Firefox 117.0 a few weeks ago and can't get the files to attach. In fact it won't open the file system. Tried removing all extensions as suggested and rebooting, but nothing changed.

Playing media volume is low. In-page volume is maxed (eg. YouTube video controls). OS Master volume is maxed.

But the volume of the Firefox in Windows Volume Mixer is a fragment of the volume set. If I adjust it to max, it jumps to a fragment of it. If I adjust it to lower, it gets even lower, like a percentage of what I actually set. The level I actually set gets a grayed out slider button, and the actual slider button slides to this lower level. See the screenshot in the attachment.

It may sound like an OS issue, but as I understand, this is the output level set by the application (Firefox, in this case). Rebooting the OS doesn't help.

Sorry, I know this is off topic, but I can't find how to edit a post after I posted it.

The usual way is you click on the three dots (upper right) and you get an EDIT option. All they do here is offer an option to QUOTE the post.

Also - while I have you: Posting links: I posted a couple LOCAL LINKS as I have a couple of threads and they appeared but when you clicked on them `404 - not found`.

Good morning, I have been using Thunderbird as my primary mail client for over 10 years now. I recently updated it to version 115 in Ubuntu 22.04, after updating through Snap Store, the Thunderbird mail icon has not changed to the newer version, it remains as the same icon from version 112. How can I address this issue?

I'm having a problem with playing videos on websites. When I click the expand to full screen button about half the time the full screen video comes up for half a second and then the window shrinks down to a small square on the bottom right-hand corner of my screen. Sort of like when the youtube app minimizes a video. This window is unclickable and also everything at or below it in android is unclickable while it's there. If I click the window button on android and swipe the firefox app up to close it and restart it, Firefox doesn't even close and I can still hear sound from the video. I have to select on the Firefox app again which will restore the full window and then click the full screen button one more time and it will work. This issue is happening on every website I play video on on the Firefox app and it is extremely irritating. I'm about ready to switch to another app if this can't be solved, but Firefox is the only browser that allows ublock origin so I don't want to do that. Can anyone help?

After recently upgrading Thunderbird , I can no longer send email (I recieve it fine). I am an old roadrunner user so my outgoing SMTP server is mail.twc.com. It is an older server and there is no encryption or password. When I hit send I get a prompt for a password. Which then fails. I can send email from spectrum webmail so it seems to be a problem with the thunderbird software.

settings:

mail.twc.com port:110 Connection Security: None

Hi. So for quite a few months I've been experiencing two issues relating to the Firefox auto fill for login details.

Issue 1. When you visit a website sign in page the "Suggested logins" box pops up at the bottom (all normal). But then when you login the box won't go away. I can navigate to somewhere new in same tab or switch to another tab already open and the box won't disappear. To get rid of it I need to open a new tab and go to a new webpage, then I can go back to my already open tab.

Issue 2. The "Suggested logins" auto fill for sign in fields on a webpage won't work. This issue started around the same time as the first and is not on every website but a few including Google Account sign in which I use a lot. I will navigate to a sign in page, the Suggested logins box pops up, I select the login I want, but then it won't fill it in.

I've tried reinstalling the Firefox app, but it didn't work. I've kept using the app despite dealing with this everyday. They may be small bugs but they do get tedious after months of it daily. I was hoping an app update would fix the problem but no update has. So I thought I would share, see if its just me.

Everything under Logins and Passwords, and Forms and Autofill is unchecked. A "Primary Password" has never been set in firefox.

Can't get it to stop asking, which is made worse by the fact that nothing is selected to prompt it nor is anything stored for it to use.

I have adblocker plus and is not blocking my facebook ads. (I am using it on my iMac). So I removed it, then reinstalled it and it still does not block the facebook ads.

I tried refreshing firefox 3 times but it got stuck in the "almost done" part and I had to quit firefox each time since it would not complete the process.

What else can I do?

Thanks, Martha

Have tried rebboted laptop run windows defender offline scan. Does not work on any of my accounts Same problem in Chrome and Edge!

It used to be so easy to add multiple recipients to outgoing email, especially forwarded emails. Now that I've been forced to download the latest version in my new computer, no matter what I do, I can't add them from the address book anymore. All the info gets added and the email is rejected because there is so much information carried over to the address box. They load as "A, Anyone, Name anyone@server.com" and the name and 'A' are highlighted in red and the email won't send. I used to be able to go to the address list, highlight the address(es) and drag them to the outgoing email. I've spent so much time fighting to figure this out and your help articles don't seem to help at all. How do I add multiple recipients to my outgoing email, especially since I ALWAYS use bcc when adding several recipients. I'm running out of tissues from spending so much time in tears trying to figure this out. I've been using and donating to Thunderbird for several years. Why am I having so much trouble with what should be a simple thing? I've tried everything I can think of to get around this problem, but nothing has worked. Please help. I've added an image of what my email looks like after trying to add recipients.

I just added "TextArea" to my extensions & it only can be selected by clicking on the picture puzzle icon at the right edge of the address/search bar for a dropdown box of extensions. I would like to display it and a number of others now only on the dropdown on visible toolbars, but can't move them there. When I select "Customize," it shows some basic icons not being displayed, but only the basics and does not include extensions I've added recently. I used to keep icons in the All-in-One Sidebar on my left margin, the Vertical Toolbar on my right margin & the bottom Status bar in pre-version 57 FF and don't want the extra hassle of having to use the dropdown for commonly used extensions. How do I get these icons moved into an existing visual space on my browser? I have 3 36" HDMI screens & plenty of real estate to play with, but no way to use it in FF for new extensions. Do I have to continue to use alternatives like WaterFox Classic & Pale Moon?
