When I use the browser to open an app and After I enter that app, I need data from another app so I touch the icon at the bottom of the screen that shows me a list of apps, I select an app from that list, open it and get the data from it via a copy, I the go back to the app in Firefox and it takes me back to a different prior screen that requires me to reenter login in info or back to the screen before I exited to get the data i needed. this does not happen in android 15 etc on all my other devices. How do I stop it? Have I used/changed a setting? Bruce Arbuckle [edited email]

Yesterday, I corrected my "Job Title" from a mistake I made 8 months ago when I joined the company.

Somehow a New Job notification was created and now I am receiving Congratulations for a job I have had for 8 months. It is embarrassing.

Is there any way to delete or remove the Notification that claims I have a New Job, since that it not factual. I only have an updated title, which was incorrect to my error.

Thank You,

Is there a way to see [or have a folder] for all starred emails?

I have been moving and saving starred emails in folders. When I read email on my iPhone, I can see a total number for flagged emails but cannot find messages easily. When I go to Thunderbird on desktop, I have to look through folders. I would find it helpful to be able to view all flagged emails in one place, to periodically see if the flags are still helpful, if I have missed something, etc.

I used the import and export to get my Mozilla Thunderbird info to my new computer but it did not move my considerable number of saved emails in folders in my Inbox. Everything else went I think. Did I miss something? Are they stored in the profile too? They didn't go.

Hello!

In Firefox android, sometimes when I press the address bar, instead of coloring and deleting the whole address, so I can type new address, it goes into some editing mode, where when I start typing, it starts continuing the address already there. What is this extremely annoying feature? I share a screenshot where an address is colored. The grey "normal" part, and the purple part where the cursor is when I start typing.

I want to increase the drop down list to show more frequent URLs. Is there a setting that allows me to do it? I have looked and haven't found it. Also, Can I reduce the number of recent searches displayed on this panel. The recent change of adding them detracts from my usage of the drop down list.

Thank you in advance for any suggestions

Turning off automatic starring of messages I send

Sometime in the past year or two, ONE of my four accounts started starring (putting the yellow star) on ALL emails I sent from that account.

This is not happening in the other accounts, including an account from the same university email system. If I send an email from the affected account (cischair) it is starred when viewed in cischair but not in the other account I sent it to (suthers). If I send an email from the other account, suthers, to cischair, it is not started in either account but my reply from cischair to suthers will be starred, again only when viewed in cischair, not in suthers.

It's very annoying to have to uncheck the stars on everything I send, and makes them useless.

Of course, I have looked in Account Settings for something that turns this on and off, and have not found anything.

Could you tell me where this might be set, or perhaps inadvertently by some keystroke combination (the bane of usability)?

Thanks - Dan

Threads not displaying all messages in Thunderbird 139.0.2 (IMAP)

Hi,

I'm experiencing issues with threaded view in Thunderbird (version 139.0.2 on Windows). Some threads do not display all messages -only a few emails are shown (e.g. 2 out of 8), and others are missing from the thread view even though they are present on the server. Rightclicking a message and selecting "Open message in new tab" sometimes works (but still doesn't show all messages), and sometimes it doesn't open a new tab at all. the missing messages do exist on the server, and I can find them using Ctrl + Shift + F , but they do not show up in the thread, nor do they appear via Global Search, even though the global index has finished building.

I have tried the following: -Right-click folder > Properties > Repair folder -Deleted and rebuilt global-messages-db.sqlite (global search database) -Reduced IMAP mailbox size from 140GB to 110GB -Waited for reindexing to complete

But the problem persists. It seems that Thunderbird either doesn’t associate all related messages with the same thread, or skips them entirely in display and search.

What can i do to fix it? Thanks in advance

In the latest update, the search engine toggle needs me to use the mouse. First, I just had to press ↓ and then toggle between the search engines. Now, I have to do an Shift + Tab to scroll through the list, which is tedious!

Can the old functionality be brought back or maybe a shortcut added for the toggle?

After manually deleting a link from my bookmarks, that unneeded link is still suggested in the address bar after the fact.

This is while using the Windows version of Firefox 140. In the Search > Address Bar — Firefox Suggest section of settings, I only have the Bookmarks option enabled. I've tried disabling History > Remember search and form history and enabling History > Clear history when Firefox closes options as well but still have the problem.

I'd really appreciate any advice.

I asked a question yesterday afternoon and left the tab open. This morning there was a response to my question. In attempting to implement the instructions, I inadvertently deleted the tab with the instructions. Now I cannot find it again. I have been through the list of questions both open and answered and cannot find my original post. I would assume that there is a way to search by my user name to find all my posts but I cannot find one.
