I recently installed TB on my new machine and I'm having trouble with my address book. The order of addresses are displayed by first name. I'd like them sorted by last name. Maybe I'm blind, but I haven't found where this is specified..?

Thanks, Phil

When opening a new tab, can you set Firefox not to put the cursor into the address bar?

FYI I work all day on a relatively large screen, and I really do not want to set my eye focuses on the left top corner where address bar is shown. For this reason, I am using the tree style vertical tabs, and when I search, I use the center search box instead of address bar search.

Until last week, I could drag and drop events in my Lightning calendar to move them from one day to another. That no longer works. Have I accidentally changed something in my settings, or is this a change in the software? I am running Thunderbird 128.3.1esr (64-bit) on an HP Windows 10 desktop. Thanks!

Hi, my firefox appears to be missing its navigation/toolbar. I only have a single bottom bar for the address bar, home, tab and the three dots. I would like to have the back, forward button, bookmarks to be pinned on the toolbar area. I try to use the Secret Setting but it does not have the option to enable toolbar. I have included two screenshots, the orange circle depicting my current situation. I would like to have something similar to the toolbar (Samsung Internet Browser) in the other screenshot with teal circle.

Hello,

I want to configure my E-mail default reply signature to use English only. But I haven't found any options for it. Many sample only told me config it in "Account Settings" -> "Composition & Addressing" but there's no options to configure the content.

Specifically, I want to achieve when I reply an E-mail, the reply signature "On Fri, 2024... xxx@xxx.com wrote" always in English, even if I'm using zh-CN version Thunderbird.

Thank you.

Every few months, my message sorting will switch to threaded mode. It did it again within the last couple of days.

I thought maybe it reverts to defaults whenever an update comes through, but update history shows my last update was Sept. 12 (exactly a month ago), and I used T-Bird yesterday, and messages were not threaded then.

I'm thinking that if I change the defaults to "unthreaded", this would stop happening, but I'm curious if it's common for it to randomly switch to the default irrespective of updates.

Would the computer rebooting (whether manually or automatically for, say, Windows updates) cause it to revert to defaults - is that what's going on?

I'm using the latest version of Thunderbird. I just updated to Version 128.3.1esr. The problem is that I cannot edit or add event dates to Thunderbird Clients. I can see all my previous events but it will NOT let me add or edit events. This all worked fine before the latest update occurred, so it's related to the changes that Thunderbird made in this last update. This makes Thunderbird calendar useless.

Hi, I would like to know how to remove the sender's email address from the "from"/"correspondents" field. So i.e. instead of "GOG.COM <newsletters@something.com>" I want to see just "GOG.COM" like it was in the previous version (this appeared today after auto-updating to Thunderbird nebula or whatever it's called now).

This change make it much less readable and cluttered and I really, really don't like it.

I have an account on a website I visit near-daily. Despite having both cookies for this website persist and the password supposedly saved, the last three times I've visited the website I've been logged out and the password is nowhere to be found. Having to switch between my password manager and browser is annoying beyond description.

(That's actually not true. I have quite a few choice descriptors for this program, but have chosen to omit them)

On Win11.64, I noticed some weeks ago Firefox refusing to automatically open sites. I’ve also sites telling me that JavaScript is disabled. But javascript.enabled = true, in settings. I’ve renamed the folder to Firefox.old, and installed a fresh copy—though then ported bookmarks, etc. Same issues. I’ve cleared the cache. Same issues. Firefox in Private Window mode works fine. Any kindly help would be appreciated. Thanks
