Here's what I did: - Copied the <Thunderbird/Profiles> folder - Uninstalled Thunderbird 60 - Installed Thunderbird 68 - Copied <Profiles> folder into new copy of Thunderbird - There was no Address Book, completely blank.
How do I get my Address Book back?
I have an Aug copy of <Profiles> that might have the Address Book in it but it will not have all E-mails. What files, exactly, would I need to copy from the Aug Profile to the new copy of Thunderbird to get my Address Book back (if that is possible)?
Any and all help is appreciated. I REALLY do not want to reconstruct my Address Book, it have 700+ addresses...

I have recently moved from Outlook to Thunderbird. I have exported the mail I want to keep to .pst files. I have read several articles in this community support but can't find a clear answer. One refers to using a much older version of Thunderbird [31.8] to import and then upgrading TB after import. Other articles and contributors say this doesn't work. I have tried using the Menu command Tools > Import where Outlook comes up as an option, but when I do that and select the option to import either All or Email only, Thunderbird either closes or freezes. Thanks.

We have used the upload functionality of buefy where any files can be dragged for upload. This works fine in Chrome. However, I am having troubles in Firefox.
Workflow: In Firefox, when I click on the browse button/DragAndDropSpace, a window pops up titled, "File Upload" If I click a file and click "open" it works fine, but I can't drag any files out of the "file upload" window. However, if I open my file explorer window, I can drag and drop the files in drag and drop space, just fine from the File Explorer window, but when I try to drag from the popup window titled "File Upload", I get a ghost image with a circle and red slash.
Expected behavior Since it is working in Crome browser so it should also work on other browser.
First I had filed the issue with buefy team but as per buefy team, It is a issue of Firefox. Buefy Bug Link : https://github.com/buefy/buefy/issues/1729
I have uploaded the bug video on buefy bug please find the attachment "BuefyUploadBug.zip"
I have uploaded the snapshot of issue please find the FirefoxIssue.jpg
If you need more details please let me know.

Login name and password changed on website. I changed it on my Mac. Deleted the old login. Synced my Mac and iPhone. Only new login info is shown on Mac as well as iPhone. So syncing seems to work alright. But... as soon as I try to login, it will only show the old (obsolete) login info. What is happening here? Seems to be a problem on the iPhone to me I restarted FF and iPhone a few times, but nothing changed.

As of today, I can't select the checkbox besides a message in yahoo mail. Doing so just opens up the message. I would like to go back to being able to use the checkbox to select many emails for deletion at the same time. I was able to do this in yahoo mail up until today. This only happens in Firefox. When I open my yahoo mail in Internet Explorer, it works just fine the way it always did.
Fill server, connection type (SSL, STARTTLS...) and port automatically at Thunderbird startup

Hello! I've been researching for the past week about how to make a .js file to autoconfigure all accounts on the Thunderbird client to a specific server adress, port and security type (SSL/TLS, STARTTLS...) for our medium sized company. It has been a real pain trying to figure out this by myself so I'm reaching out for you guys to get a little help getting this sorted out.
I would like to explain our situation better before asking about the problem itself, so you get my point and motivation to do this.
We have more than 200 computers to maintain in our company. Every time our mail provider changes a setting, we need to go on each individual machine and fiddle with the configuration settings inside the client to adjust whathever changed in the backend. We would like to be a lot smarter and efficient in this process, so I'm trying to figure out how to do this autoconfiguration. We already figured out how to put the XML file in the domain server to use the autodiscovery feature in Thunderbird, but it didn't really solve our problem. I want Thunderbird to check for the items listed above in the title at each bootup of the application.
So, let's begin.
When Thunderbird starts, I need it to reach to a server and download the IMAP and SMTP server adresses, ports and security settings. I know there is a couple of commands to point the file location, whose are:
pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0);
and
pref("general.config.filename", "Thunderbird.cfg");
These are going to be inserted into the "channel-pref" file in the Mozilla Thunderbird/defaults directory. The "Thunderbird.cfg" file will be created in the "Mozilla Thunderbird" directory, wich will have this following command:
pref("autoadmin.global_config_url","yourdomain.com");
and
user_pref("autoadmin.append_emailaddr",true);
The problem starts with the actual commands inside the file hosted in the like provided in the "autoadmin.global_config_url" command. I can't figure out wich commands should I use to configure those items mentioned earlier, making it so all mail accounts wich are configured in the Thunderbird client have those preferences pre-filled, locked and set by the configuration file. Is it possible? I want the passwords to be saved locally, aswell as the certificates and all of the rest. I just want specifically the server settings to be autoconfigured and locked by our file hosted in the domain server.

When I select a portion of an email and try to print it to a text file using windows 10 generic text only printer, the text scrolls across the page with a few characters printed on each line before it continues 1 line down. This is seen when the file is opened with Windows notepad.
A test page for the printer prints correctly. A text file previously created in notepad also works correctly.
Any suggestions?

Firefox for Android automatically unloads the contents of inactive tabs after a few seconds. This is very annoying, especially when the tab contains fields for editing text, or a chat conversation, which is then lost. I found a support article which says there is an option in "about:config" called "browser.tabs.unloadOnLowMemory", which allows to disable this "feature". However, in the version I am using (Firefox 68.1.1.), this option seems not to exist. Neither did it exist in the version I used before upgrading. What can I do?

If I want to attach a file to an email or otherwise select a file I either must scroll to it or use the onscreen "touch" keyboard. They suggested I ask here.

FF now loads duplicates of many pages (multiple tabs) when restoring session. When I attempt to close duplicates, it stalls. And seems to load up even more copies when I try again, after force-quitting. This has been going on for some weeks. Most recently, when I attempted to go through the windows before session restore, there was no time before the loading began. totally frustrated.
Prior to this, a couple months ago, session restore was totally unavailable for me. I read thru the many posts on this, but nothing was able to restore my sessions. Now, the opposite.
