Lately, when I try to click on a different mailbox or message , nothing happens. repeating clicks sometimes works, and sometimes i have to first click on what I was previous viewing to get what I want to highlight, or click on different areas of a message or mailbox to get it to work. I am on mac tahoe 26.2. Did not have this problem before. What can I do to fix this problem?

Thanks Dan

www.russellmoccasin.com won't load properly on any browser on my macbook pro running Mac OS 15.7.3. I don't have any browser extensions running, I've cleared my browser history, cookies, and cache. Still won't work. When I disabled javascript on safari and firefox, the website loaded perfectly. But I have to have JS running to use almost every other website on the internet, so what gives??

mac calendar keeps wanting me to use a password for Safari, which I do not use, which then passes me on to Chrome. Plus calendar is not syncing with phone anymore. Help

Somewhere in my version of Thunderbird, there is an old adress of one of my correspondant which is recorded This adress is no longer valid and I have deleted it from my adress book Nonetheless, when I start to write my correspondant's name, this adress keeps being proposed among the first options for the automatic completion of the adress How can I delete this wrong adress from the hidden part where Thunderbird has stored it?

Actually this is more an observation than a query, but I hope it's helpful. My Thunderbird V147.0 running two accounts on IMAP, Windows 11 and a lot of local folders (35Gb) had slowly got slower, but then just about packed up. e.g. 5 minutes to load one email, 20 minutes to download maybe 25 emails. Then it would stop completely requiring a Task Manager terminate and a restart. I read all the advice and tried a lot of it, but didn't see anything about the "global-messages-db.sqlite" file affecting performance. Anyway I got to having a look at it - 1.37Gb!! Deleted the "global-messages-db.sqlite" file and restarted. Thunderbird was back to normal and now 10 days later the sqlite file seems to be stable at approx 41Mb. I have no idea how it grew so big (33 times bigger than it seems it needs to be), I have never deleted it before and I have probably been using the current Thunderbird configuration for 20 years, but I imagined that reindexing etc would keep it a manageable size, clearly not. I wonder whether there should be a "Clear down Global Messages DB" button.

Suddenly today my address books went from alphabetical to totally random listing. I haven't intentionally changed anything. No idea what triggered this change? Help, please.

Hello.

1. How to save a tab group without closing it? 2. How to make individual tabs in a tab group permanent? (So when you close a tab group only the permanent members are preserved.)

if I type a hyperlink into the Calendar description field it does not link to the url.

The mouse pointer does not change from a cursor to a pointy hand when I hover over it

I have also tried using the 'Link' button and that creates a blue/underlined url like a traditional clickable link but the result is the same as before.

Please help troubleshoot the problem, at the moment I'm having to copy and paste every link which becomes tedious when there are lots of links

Thanks

hi i went to create a folder in one of my emails which i did, but didnt see i spellet it incorrectly so i tried to rename it but it didnt rename instead it created a new folder with the correct spelling, i tries to delete the wrong one and i couldnt delete it, i moved the emails into the folder with the correct name and it moved into both folders which now doubled the size of the emails i had in the folders or thunderbirds database so i tried to delete the emails in the wrong folder and it delete all the emails in both folders but the folder stills the folders still the emails that where there but i cant see them and i cant compact the folders to save space

I migrated my Thunderbird installation to a new computer. The installation has 25 email accounts and is now requiring passwords be entered for each account including a couple of gmail accounts.

It was my understanding passwords would be migrated when using the export/import tool within Thunderbird. Is this not so?

Do I now need to change passwords for all email accounts? (because, of course these may have been written down years ago but cannot be located at this time. :-( ) Or, is there some way of restoring the email account passwords?

• • • side note: The migration was not seamless but mostly due to my own ignorance. When using the export/import tool from one Linux machine to another I found the following:

- Thunderbird versions must be the same on both computers - After export, file on USB drive was only accessible by root on new computer - export zip file needed to be copied to user account on new computer (from within root account) and ownership changed to [user]: -R (I imagine you could just change ownership on the USB but this seemed easier)
