How do I add the Translate icon to my Toolbar - W10 - please?

If I open the following page in Chrome it automatically translated from German to English. https://www.camperprotect.de/p/fahrer-und-beifahrertuerverriegelung-einbruchschutz-2006-2019

I cannot find how to translate it in Firefox. I do not have the Translate icon that is suggested.

Many thanks

Hi! I'm hoping you can help me! I use Thunderbird, and have for many years, and I love it. My computer is on its last legs, and I'm trying to save up for a new one, but, yesterday I did something possibly stupid... (yeah, I know, you NEVER get people asking for help who've done stupid things, so this will be unusual... lol). Anyway... I turned my computer on and got a popup saying that my Thunderbird needs an update and it's been a while since I updated, so I hit OK on the update... Well, my arsehole of a computer chose that exact minute to shit itself and die. When I tried restarting it, my Thunderbird no longer works. Now I have a popup with a big red X that says "The installation seems to be corrupt. Please check your hardware and disk setup and/or re-install." Can you help me? I desperately need to check my email and have one I need to send. I don't know what to do. I've also got YEARS worth of emails sitting in the system, so I can't risk losing them, either. Please help. L.

Hello,

I actually noticed earlier that, on Android, Firefox was saying the last sync was 11 hours ago. I tried to sync but it didn't do anything, as if the button wasn't there at all. I tried restarting my phone, disconnecting firefox on my phone from my computer, disconnecting firefox on my computer from my phone and all these things did was that, now, it says it had never sync.

I'm a bit lost, I didn't find any solution for that.

I'm using Thunderbird 149.02 to make a local copy of all folders, messages and attachments on my yahoo mail account. I don't yet see an obvious way to issue a command to Thunderbird to accomplish this.

I'm using export.imap.mail.yahoo.com as the IMAP server as some of the folders have >10000 messages (none have >100000 messages, and there is no significant real-time email arriving to the account while I do this procedure.)

In settings/offline settings I have "automatically follow detected online state" and "download messages for offline use when going offline [yes].

In account settings/synchronization & storage I have Disk space: Synchronize all messages locally regardless of age"; "to recover disk space, old messages can be permanently deleted..." I have "Don't delete any messages" and "Always keep starred messages"

With these settings, I've tried (from the main menu) File -> Offline > Download/Sync now, then "Download and/or sync..." I have selected Mail Messages, and the Select button takes me to a table where I have selected the main account folder and all sub-folders.

With these settings, Thunderbird appears to go through some of the folders and downloads messages from, them, and after a while says there are no new messages (I don't have the specific text, but it ceases interacting with the server". If I repeat the Download/Sync now procedure, it appears to download more messages, will continue for a while, then stop in the same way.

When I compare the size of Thunderbird's local account folder, it appears to grow after each of these iterations, but is (after half dozen cycles through this) has only reached about 2/3 of the total stoage size reported by Yahoo. While I understand the storage mechanisms would differ significantly between yahoo and Thunderbird, I don't believe I've found a single sure-fire way to accomplish what I set out to do in the first place (which is get a complete copy, through IMAP, of all emails, folders and attachments.

What am I missing?

Thanks,

Dave

Hi. Recently, not sure of which version as there seems to be a lot of updates :)

I'm currently on 152.0.1 on a Windows 11.

This problem doesn't happen on my Raspberry pi with 152.0 (aarch64) On my Android 13 I have allowed Pop-ups, via about:config, sort of, but there is no option to make Exceptions

So back to Windows 11.

As said I can enter an exception and that works when I load the site I want until I close Fx and I have to do it all again: Enter Domain : Allow : Save etc.

Once, and only once, I closed the [settings] and I'm sure after closing FX and opening it worked fine.

Just closed again and problem has occurred.

The issue arises on my site https://calstock.org.uk which opens a window to a UK weather site, The Met Office. It requires cookies etc. and shows it's own popup.

What I do is open it first in a new window, which is the popup I am referring to, then I load it in an iframe, then I close the popup.

That way the cookie is set by the new window that pops up so there is no query on my main page.

I only have the one extension, uBlock Origin which I have on all devices

Thanks

Just updated to v152 (from 142 esr) on MacOS (26.6 public beta 2) and CardBook creating new contact or edit existing contact and am unable to scroll to bottom of window to the save option

AI tells me I can't just drag my Gmail.com (IMAP) from local Folders to the internet-connected folders section, which contains my Verizon.com account hosted by AOL. How can move my Gmail (IMAP) account safely?

Firebird is so slow now, that I can rarely receive the code that you send me. Have to take annother programm for that. Freezes even when trying to mark a mail or erasing it. WIN 11. The programm is working well at my wifes laptop also WIN 11. 2 month ago it worked fast and fine. Working in Troubleshooting mode does not show any spam ordner like before and it does not run better. I also downloaded the last version. No change! I would like to uninstall the programm but did not dare due to perhaps loose all my mails. Could you help me please? Thank you!

why does Firefox have a Google sign in the search bar on my mobile device after installing it? Does not make sense since Firefox on my laptop opens in Firefox browser.

Hello, Im using localized (Lithuanian) version of Firefox. Several updates back, Firefox started including russian and Polish in preferred languages by default. Personally i know how to remove those for myself. However, since im managing around 300 computers in a school. This starts to become an issue. In Lithuania we only have one official language. And when pages in a school start opening in foreign (russian) language this starts to be quite annoying. I would love to keep using Firefox but i need help.

when i updated linux a newer firefox version was installed but none of my personal settings, passwords or bookmarks installed onto the new firefox version. can't access my previous profil on my computer

Hello,

Since this morning, I haven't been able to access Bsky on my laptop because of a supposed HSTS risk, which means I can't add an exception to visit it. I use Firefox on my Android and going to the mobile version of the website lets me in no problem, so I assume there's an issue with my laptop.

I'd usually wait a few days and let it solve itself but just in case it's something on my end, I'd like to solve it! I'm on 151.0.4 (64-bit), don't use a VPN or an anti-virus, I have a couple of privacy add-ons but they've been here forever and they've never caused a fuss. I can post a screenshot of the error code and the certificate it sends me if it's any help.

I'd appreciate any pointers! Thanks!

Hi there

After the latest update some features like (address/tab bar customisation) are missing or frozen, I cannot now move the address bar to the bottom, which is very annoying and inconvenient. Could you please help me fixing this issue?

I recently moved from macos to linux and noticed that Thunderbird always reloads one account on startup -- by that I mean that, when I open TB, three out of four accounts display immediately, but the fourth one takes a moment, and then all its folders start appearing in the left-hand-side column. I had a look around and saw something about the .msf file being broken, with a solution being to delete it and let it be rebuilt. I headed to my profile folder but I now see that, in the ImapMail folder, the three accounts that appear immediately have their respective folders and .msf file, but not the account that reloads every time. I tried clicking on "repair" on the (unified) inbox, I tried checking the settings, but am not seeing anything that helps. Any ideas?

I have [[created a backup file|https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-backup#w_protect-your-sensitive-data-with-a-password]] today with the latest available Firefox and switched to a new OS. Sadly, the backup file somehow seems to have gotten damaged, even if Firefox still recognizes when I'm inputting the wrong password. On Ubuntu, where I originally created the backup and where I tested it again after things weren't working out, Firefox tells me that there is an issue with the file and that I should try a different one (which I don't have). On CachyOS, which I'm currently testing out, restoring the backup never finishes and Firefox doesn't exit cleanly. In hindsight I obviously should 1) have tested the backup immediately, 2) not have wiped my laptop prematurely, and 3) have backed up the folders manually, but I haven't. Now the question: is there some way to extract the account details from the .html file? I don't care much about the rest, but restoring the accounts in some other fashion is gonna be a lot of work.

Have been using Thunderbird and Firefox for decades, naturally, and have several email accounts. Within each account, I'm a prolific user of folders within the respective Inboxes. For years, these folders have remained in Alphabetical Order, as when they were set up. Recently, however, for no reason that I can suss, the sub-folders in the Inbox of one of my accounts have been gone "all agley", ie. they're listed all higgledy-piggledy in random order. This isn't a problem for my message filter - but it's a real problem for me, having to scan down a very long, disorganised list to find any particular folder I want to open. I've searched for an instruction to instruct Thunderbird to arrange the Folders in my Inbox in Alphabetical Order and can't find anything. Can anyone help me, please. Many thanks in anticipation to all you helpful Thunderbird Users and Contributors. Cathleen (London, UK)
