I have the plasma browser integration extension and the corresponding package for my distro. But it doesn't work and I get the "failed to connect to native host" message. Am I doing something wrong? I use: KDE neon 5.27 KDE plasma version: 5.27.3 Firefox edition 111.0, Mozilla Firefox for Ubuntu Thanks in advance!

I just downloaded and installed Thunderbird to use for my email because I have nothing but trouble with the Windows 11 Mail program on my computer. Apparently I've missed something critical in the set up because it doesn't access any of my emails. Even if I try to send myself an email it says the sending failed because the server was unable to access the mailbox. My email address is through Frontier, which uses Yahoo Mail to handle it's email. My email address is xxxxxx@frontier.com. When I check my settings on Thunderbird it has my correct email address for account name and email address, and under server settings it has my correct email address for user name, for server type says IMAP Mail Server, and for server name says imap.mail.yahoo.com. For port it says 993(default). I used to use Thunderbird on a previous laptop, with the same email address, and never had a problem. Can someone tell me what I might be missing? I will admit to being middle of the pack when it comes to being tech savvy, so don't get too technical please. Appreciate any help.

Over the last few days, I cannot access my Facebook profile page with Firefox. The rest of the site works fine, and I can post, I just get this error message when I try to go to my profile page: This Page Isn't Available Right Now This may be because of a technical error that we're working to get fixed. Try reloading this page.

This issue does not happen on my iPhone or using other web browsers, only Firefox.

Can anyone advise?

After many years of proper work my Thunderbird crashed completely and left me with a start-up screen for a complete new installation. Restart of Thunderbird or the pc didn't help to solve the problem.

I entered my credentials (Name, E-mail-address and password and I succeded getting all mails lying on the mailserver downloaded (around 1500 mails from February 9th to March 20). I am also able to send e-mails.

But I have lost contact to all my e-mails before this date which, besides my ordinary inbox and sent-box counts archives going 12 years back.

How do I connect my new setup with all the folders from the old configuration. Looking in %appdata%\tThunderbird, I can see they are lying there, but how do I connect to them? It seems that the new profile has already got in contact with my address book, (so far so good). But there seems to be no contact to everything else.

I use POP3

Can you provide me with the necessary knowledge to reestablish the situation, please?

Looking forward

When I minimize Firefox and then maximize it launches another window. Why does it add a new tab? I want it to stay on the last tab I was at, but instead I need to go back to the all tabs view and close out the new unwanted window.

Every time I connect my account on another device to sync up, it totally resets extensions and new tab shortcuts on ALL of my devices. It keeps my bookmarks, theme and what extensions are installed, but again all of my new tab shortcuts and my extension are reset, which is a pain in the rear for extensions like NoScript and taking the time to rebuild all of the new tab shortcuts.

Is there any way to set a device as the primary to push out to others or download those settings to avoid having to set them up again?

Recently converted to Firefox.

I routinely receive images from one sender that has a banner that renders two to three times the screen width no matter the screen size.

This issue doesn't occur on the Gmail Mobile app only while viewing Gmail on Firefox (The issue is not resident in Chrome).

way to limit the size of embedded / inline images when logged into gmail on Firefox?

Hello, as of this morning, none of the bookmarks I save on my android phone are syncing across to my PC. When I open my PC, I can see that sync is still working (as all open tabs on my phone are showing as open on the Tabs Pickup screen). I can see that several pages I bookmarked yesterday have saved without issue, so this is something that's happened today. I have my PC set to clear history whenever I close the browser, but I've manually cleared all history and cache. I've also manually synced. I've gone into settings and checked that Bookmarks are still selected as one of the things to Sync.

I have gone to about: sync-log and this is what I see:

Can anyone help? I've been using Firefox for years on my PC, but have only recently started using the Firefox app on my phone and I love the sync feature. Many thanks.

Hi!

I recently got a new PC, with Thunderbird (TB) re-installed. The address book in my old TB was not migrated to TB in my new PC.

Is there a way to import the address book to my new TB?

Many thanks in advance for all help!

Best, Stefan Andersson

I am plagued with multiple spam messages every hour. I get 30-40 per day every single day, day after day after day. The spammer is clever and has managed to elude being caught by the Bayesian filtering of both Gmail and Thunderbird so they pretty much all end up in my 'Inbox'. ( he is spoofing the sending domain with 128 random characters so no two messages are ever seen to be from the same sender). Very frustrating!! But there is a possible way to trap and discard this trash **IF** I can use Unix style regular expression wild cards in my filter rules.

 My question is this --- when setting up a new email filter in Thunderbird, what (if any) wild cards are supported in the "Sender Contains" argument field?  For example can I use ".........." to match any 10 character string?   I need to be able to specify the number of characters I want to match, so something like "*" would not work since it matches without regard to the number of characters.   I need to specify how many characters are to be matched.

I can supply details as to why this is needed, but I won't bore you with the details unless you ask.

Thanks for any input.

I have a feeling I know the answer, but wanted to confirm. Due to unforeseen circumstances, I had to reset my PC. Upon doing that and downloading Firefox all of my data is gone. Bookmarks, saved logins, etc. all gone. I thought once I logged into my Firefox account everything would be there. I've logged into my account on other computers in the past and all my stuff was there but not this time. Now it's saying all of my stuff (profiles, etc) was created today. Is my stuff really gone forever? I thought the whole point of the Firefox account was so I could just login and have everything sync.

In about:config, I see two settings for controlling the minimum amount of time for DNS cache expiration: network.dnsCacheExpiration and network.dnsCacheExpirationGracePeriod. What is the difference between them? They are both set to 60 seconds by default.

Firefox won't reload tab when NoScripts running. This didn't happen until I went to version 11.4.18 of NoScripts and Version 111.0 of Firefox (both at same time). All 8 tabs load when I initially start FF 111.0. All tabs reload with no problems when I initially start or restart FF with Noscripts active. It is only after FF been running for an hour or so that tabs stop reloading. I do have another addon running called tab reloader. Addon tab reloader and the FF reload icon both stop working after FF runs for awhile. You will see the web page name in bottom left corner of screen and an hour class on tab. Stop NoScripts, the hour class goes away and all tabs reload, both with the FF tab reload icon and the tab reloader addon.

I thought it might be the tab reloader addon, so I set 8 tabs to reload every 10 seconds for awhile, just a couple minutes. NoScripts was running. This didn't cause a problem, everything was reloading. So I set tab reloader back to reload 8 tabs every hour, No scripts still active.

Come back in a little over an hour and the FF tab reload isn't working as described earlier. Stop NoScripts and tabs finish reloading.

Now is this a Noscript 11.4.18 or FF 111.0 issue, I did both at same time. Prior to that I was on FF 110.0.1. Currently running Windows 10 64 bit, haven't done the March update as nothing much there. All was fine until FF and NoScript update. All is fine until FF runs for awhile. For now I just turned NoScripts off.

I am attempting to disable the Recent Bookmarks section from the bookmarks menu in Firefox Windows version 111. The main solution that's been suggested in the past is to use about:config and change browser.bookmarks.showRecentlyBookmarked to false.

This setting appears to be ignored in my version as changing it has no affect.

Any other steps?

Hi Normally, I can access my Google search add-on for scientific papers but now all I receive is the following comment: Unable to access the server. Open results in a new tab. Something appears to be blocking the normal smooth access. John Menzies
