I did a search to try and fix this. Suggestions included, checking if Private Windows are on, Customizing Toolbar, making sure all extensions are enabled and Refresh Firefox, all of which I did with no results. Before I go nuclear and uninstall/install Firefox, are there any other suggestions to solve this issue?

I have Thunderbird installed on my PC and I have a HOW TO question.

I have my wife's email account setup to forward all mail to my email account. When the mail arrives, I have a filter that moves her mail to a folder and that filter works great. My problem was that we received an email yesterday where the TO line contained my both my email addresses (i.e. MMMM.xxxxx.com WWWW.ggggggggg.com). My email is not filtered and stays in the inbox but when the message arrived, the filter saw her address on the TO line in addition to my address and moved the message to her folder and I did not see the message since it was no longer in the inbox.

I tried to setup new, additional filter that I thought might work where the TO line contained both addresses where the filter action was to copy the message to her folder but leave the message in inbox but that didn't work. Since this message was from our homeowners association I tried FROM contains (i.e. @HOAssociation.com) and one or both of our email addresses on the TO line with the action still being a copy to her folder but that didn't seem to work either.

It was late at night (early morning) so I gave up and decided to ask for help so if anyone knows how to set this up. please let me know. Thanks.

As a totally blind individual, I use a screen reader talking software package to read aloud material displayed on the screen. I tried Thunderbird for the first time yesterday, and I love its logic and simplicity. I am hoping to find electronic documentation so I can learn important tasks such as: what do all of the categories mean in the Sort emails option; how do I obtain the "from" address in an email message so I can create a mail filters using the address to automatically send certain messages to trash when they arrive; I love short HTML but want to know how it differs from the default message format; and so on and so on. If there is no comprehensive documentation in one file, perhaps what I need is a simple tutorial on how to search for the answers to these questions myself. I don't want anyone having to retype material that I can find if I am shown how to do so. I do Googloe and Kagi searches all of the time, and would gladly welcome material on how to search Thunderbird help to find answers. I love the product; it works smoothly and easily with my screen reader, something another big competitor's cliendt doesn't seem to do. Once I learn a bit more, I plan to make Thunderbird my default email client. Thanks for such an awesome experience.

I have a dozen different email accounts set up in T-Bird. Except for my gmail account, all of them take the form of prefixes to the domain name that I own. To get new mail several times a day I normally use the shortcut Shift+F5. However, my age-challenged memory doesn't always know how long ago I most recently did that download. As a feature, I would like to see posted somewhere the time of the most recent download, in a simple hh:mm format. Maybe it could also be shown for any given account when I download only that one. If this feature is already available I haven't yet found it.

FF v131.0.3

Just started seeing this issue when selecting a news item video in emails from Haystack News Midweek Report <founders@haystack.tv>.

Normally, selecting an item in the email message would open the subject story video in a new tab where I can 'play' the video. Now I get the new tab opened with a blank (white) screen, but noticed something strange in the URL. Here's an example: https://notifications.haystack.tv/CL0/https://www.haystack.tv/v/economy-grew-robust-pace-quarter.

https://notifications.haystack.tv/CL0/ is leading the normal URL address. If I take this part out the video loads and plays as expected.

Anyone have an idea what caused this? Thx.

I've just updated from Firefox 101.0.1 to Firefox ESR 115.18.0 (I'm still using Windows 7, so can't get a more recent release). I have a program which reads a cURL command from the clipboard then runs cURL repeatedly with slightly modified versions of the command. The command is read from the clipboard rather than pasted into the command prompt window because it may be more than 4096 characters. This no longer works with the updated version of Firefox. Comparing the cURL commands from the two versions of Firefox showed lots of "^" characters had been added. For example "120Months|Yield|RiskScore" had become "120Months^|Yield^|RiskScore". When I edited the cURL command to remove the "^" characters, everything worked like it had before the Firefox update. I suspect this is related to the changes introduced by Bug 1777800. I would like to know whether the problem can be reproduced using up-to-date versions of Firefox and Windows. Starting with web page https://www.trustnet.com/fund/price-performance/t/investment-trusts?norisk=true&PageSize=25 use the network monitor to capture the result of moving to the next page of data, Copy as cURL (Windows) and use the result. Do you get a response containing the data for the next 25 funds or a very small file containing an error message?

Frequently (but not always), Firefox iOS mobile will startup, allow me to enter a portion of my search text then, open a new tab and/or clear the text I’ve already typed. I looked for settings that would remedy to no avail (“Jump back in” and “start screen” related settings had no affect). Obviously, I’m typing before startup has fully finished, so I’d recommend either delaying my ability to type until startup is finished or addressing the interrupting behavior. For sake of reproducing the error, I tend to fully close apps when I’m not using them, so this is full startup process, not a return to application.

Today when I launched Thunderbird it opened the program to Account Setup window. I clicked the Inbox tab at the top and I noticed all my folders were gone as will as all my email accounts, saved emails, calendar setting, basically it looks like a fresh install. An internet didn't offer much help. I did find some info about Troubleshooting Information from the Help option and found the profile folder location. It looks like there are still folders there but I am not sure what they really contain. I tried installing Thunderbird on top of the current program but it made no difference. I also tried an Import of the Default file location that Thunderbird suggested and I got an error message that the Import failed unexpectedly. I've scanned my PC for any viruses and found none. I am using the latest version of Windows 11. Seems like a weird problem as I used Thunderbird yesterday with no problems. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thx,

Hello, i've recently installed Firefox for Android and apparently (no idea why) has a full old list of password in "Saved passwords". On my desktop the saved password list is empty (deleted some time ago) and it's synced with my Firefox account (between desktop and laptop), however the Firefox android app constantly has a full list of saved passwords. Clearing cache and clearing data doesn't do nothing, if i sync with my account i get the list back. How is that possible?

Plus i can't bulk delete that list, i must click the 3 dots and manually delete one by one and that's atrocious.

SOLVED: the problem was with my old laptop with Firefox, even if the session was disconnected it was keeping its password list synced (strangely... maybe a bug?) so i just deleted it and resync again. Now Firefox on Android has the empty list synced correctly.
