I accidently deleted the saved passwords and now I cannot put the providers name back in. Is there a way to correct this. I cannot edit anything. I will appreciate any help

Regards

For the past few days, Firefox has been running painfully slowly. I have tried to reset it, reinstall it and running Glary Utilities to clean but nothing has worked so far. I also have Opera and Chrome which are running absolutely fine. The program itself starts up fine but just seems to be very slow to load pages.

I am on Windows 10 with latest updates which is run on a separate SSD drive. Everything else runs very quickly like the resource heavy NoxPlayer.

Please let me know what further details I can provide you with.

Thank you in advance!

For the last two days or so, Thunderbird has stopped asking me for my account logins or will it show any new emails. At the bottom is just says " <my email account > is connected to verizon.net. I can go to mail.aol.com and read new mail from my verizon account. None of my 5 email accounts show new mail in Thunderbird. I don't have any filters turned on that I am aware of that would hide this and I never tell it to save my login.

What the heck ?

In the Nov 20th and Nov 21st Nightly builds, when I enter a URL in the address bar (either by fully typing it and tapping Enter, or by partially typing it and tapping on one of the autocomplete suggestions), the onscreen keyboard remains in place.

The behaviour in previous builds (and in my view the desired behaviour) was that the onscreen keyboard disappeared in order not to take up screen space that the web page could use.

Hello, my Thunderbird performed yesterday ,9 November 2020, an automatic update to version 78.4.0 (from 68.12.1). Since then all my emails in my inbox and archive folders have disappeared. Also the archive folders with the submap structures are gone. Very annoying. I am not so experienced in trouble shooting. I have two hotmail accounts in use. So, I check on forums for a solution and one direction was to check the profiles in the help/problem solving tab. But it showed only two profiles for main and local. I checked in the AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\Mail the Archives.sbd with all the subfolders still there. Then I changed in the account settings the link in the local map to the Archives.sbd. I don't know if this is the correct method, though but now something happened: It retrieved all emails from the hotmail server (hotmail inbox and also those in the hotmail subfolders) and it constructed some archive folders and some subfolders. So I am still missing half of my archived emails and have too many emails in my inbox. How can I fix this and why didn't the Thunderbird update smoothly take over the existing map structure from the previous version? Thanks in advance for your support. Best regards, René

PS: if any additional information is needed from me, please let me know. Thanks.

Just updated my Thunderbird up to version 78.4.0 and I really hate how it looks now, everything is in shades of gray. How can I rollback last update or force Thunderbird to return it's old design?

every email I receive goes straight into the junk folder. this started months ago and I couldnt resolve it. even went to the trouble of uninstalling thunderbird and reinstalling but problem remains. stopped using thunderbird but decided to give it another go and still all incoming emails go to the junk folder

even when I transfer all my emails out of junk into the inbox they almost immediately go back in the junk folder. I'm guessing its a setting problem but I havent been able to fix

In the past few weeks I have been unable to login to my att.net account on Thunderbird, even when I re-enter the password. I can get to my gmail accounts without a problem. The att.net account has the bulk of my emails. I attempted to repair the inbox but now cannot see the messages. I also cleared the cache. Prior to being totally unable to receive or send emails from this account, I often had to "retry" when login failed. Now that no longer works and I simply cannot access the att.net (Yahoo) account in Thunderbird but have to do everything in my browser.

Thunderbird 78.5.0 on Windows 10 desktop.

My primary (comcast) email account stopped updating 2 days ago. None of my settings were changed. I just spent WAY too long chatting with comcast, so I know everything is as OK as can be on that side. I have several other email accounts on a web server that are all fine.

I have deleted the saved password for the primary account, hoping it would connect and prompt me for my password, just in case that was the cause of the problem.

I'm stumped. Would appreciate any pointers, as I have checked and re-checked settings.

Suddenly tabs won't close & hitting "Command" & a link opens a new window instead of a new tab. Anyone know how to make tabs close & also how to revert to allowing "command" + clicking a link to open in a new tab & not a new window? I've tried shift + re-opening Firefox & I tried 'safe mode' & it's still happening.

Strangest quirk happened recently. When I scroll down a Fox News article to the reader's comments, half of the comments are embedded with question marks etc. that make them unreadable. Not the end of the world but a little bothersome. When I use Microsoft Edge or Explorer this problem does not occur so it must be the Firefox browser. I am running the most recent #83 Firefox browser. Thanks for any help.

hi from New Zealand. When clicking on the 'Forward' option in a Thunderbird received email, a large collection of 'technical data' appears, before the message, which I have to delete before sending. See example pasted below. Please let me know how can to eliminate this!

Hi folks. I know this is an easy question for you has me baffled. My old computer (Windows-7) has Firefox configured to automatically start my AOL account. But.......I can't recall the settings to make my new PC (Windows 10-Pro) do the same thing. Any ideas/suggestions welcome. Thanks Crady Adams

Hi:

I located the following instructions for sorting bookmarks: "Click Bookmarks and then click the Show All Bookmarks bar at the bottom. Right-clickHold down the Ctrl key while you click on the folder you want to sort, then select Sort By Name. The bookmarks in that folder will be sorted alphabetically.".

I followed them, got to sort but nothing happened regardless how many times I tried. Is this supposed to work on an Apple?

Thanks.
