All of a sudden I am unable to login to ingramspark.com It just keeps spinning but never gets past this page where I can enter my username and password info.

Description: For the past few versions, Firefox has lost the ability to upload folders via drag-and-drop into Synology File Station.

The Issue: Dragging a folder into the File Station interface used to work, but now it is no longer recognized or fails to parse the directory structure.

Comparison: This feature continues to work perfectly in Chrome, suggesting a recent regression in Firefox's handling of webkitGetAsEntry or related directory APIs.

Note: This is specifically about the drag-and-drop action, as the native "Upload" button has never supported directory selection. Environment:

Browser: Firefox 150.0.3 (and several recent prior versions) Server: Synology DSM 7.2.1 OS:Windows 11

Hi

I'm using Thunderbird 140.5 on a desktop Mac running Sequoia 15.7.2

In Local Folders, my subfolders have subfolders. In both levels of subfolders, Thunderbird has spontaneously started disordering both newly created subfolders, and folders which I move from one subfolder to another using right click 'Move To'

Up until ten days ago, all folders whether new or moved, were listed alphabetically. Now, day by day, the disordering is getting worse and as someone with ongoing conversations with hundreds of clients, it is becoming impossible to work when I have to give so much time to slowly scanning through every folder looking for the relevant subfolder.

I don't know why I can't update this version, but I tried installing the newest version available (145) and used the 'reset folder option' which did not work either.

Also, setting up a whole new account instead of upgrading my existing account is a colossal faff and I'd rather not have to!

Aside from manually reordering (also a colossal faff), can anyone suggest something I might be missing in stopping this happening?

Thunderbird says I'm on an esr channel, if that helps

Thanks

I keep my mail (both sent and received) in local mail folders. My server is gmail, and sent mail is put in gmail's sent folder by default. Every few months, I copy those messages to a local folder, and after I back them up, I delete the server copy.

What to my dismay, I discovered today that only the message headers, and not the messages were present in the local folder, though they had been when downloaded. Looking at the file sizes, I found the sent file to be 0 Kb, and sent.msf 255 Kb, when sent should have been around 60 Kb long.

I have been able to restore the messages from backup (whew!), but I have no idea how then sent file was wiped out. I know I did not do it.

Has anyone else had this happen? Is there a preventive measure I should take?

When I enter a company name into search this message appears:

I can't find the three horizontal bars to be able to access any menu, to enable me to import the passwords and bookmarks from chrome. If there's no simple solution to this, I will simply discard Firefox. All I find is three dots on the top corner and if I access settings there there are no options to import anything.

Searching firefox support for “how to search firefox settings” only gives links to changing search engine. I want to find where a specific setting is located without looking thru every category. IOS.

When I try to open Thunderbird it keeps giving me a message that it is trying trouble install a new helper tool and asks for my password. I do so, hit the Install Helper button, and then nothing ever happens. I get a spinning beach ball and it never opens no long how I wait. I would be very grateful for any suggestions or advice on what to do.

I have been using Thunderbird for 10+years and was able to set up Gmail accounts without any problem. Currently, there are 3 Gmail accounts configured under Thunderbird and those all are working fine. I needed to add one more GMAIL account, everything seems to go through OK, but near the end, it fails with an error message: "Unable to login at the server. Probably wrong configuration, username or password."

I also installed Thunderbird on MAC and repeated the same steps to configure GAMIL account and got the same error message.

The same errors occur if I configure APP PASSWORD in Gmail and then try to configure GAMIL account in Thunderbird using APP PASSWORD. Still got the same error message.

HELP PLEASE

I am making another plea: how do I change the font size of the working bars in firefox? The Title BAR, the Menu BAR, the Tab BAR, etc. On my computer, they're minuscule, and I can't see them. I'm not a programmer, I don't know anything about code, so that limits the way things can be explained to me, or that I can understand. Several of you have been kind enough to suggest different solutions, but they all make things worse. I think I've screwed things up almost irreparably. I can barely recognize my browser any more. I've even tried to refresh Firefox, and that also made the situation worse. And now, every tab crashes constantly. Thanks to anyone who can help me solve this problem.

For the past.. month I would say, any time I try to use Youtube on my Firefox Browser it nearly always switches over to landscape mode after watching a video. It doesn't matter whether my phone screen's auto rotate is on or off it still does it. Yes. I already tried to turn my auto rotate on to switch it back to potrait mode, it still won't work. The only solution I currently have is closing Youtube all together from my Browser, which really REALLY sucks!!

Can someone PLEASE look into the glitch?!

For the last 2 months I have been working to configure Thunderbird to fully replace my Gmail UI usage after their recent change to workspace options and using data to train gemini. When you deactivate those gmail features the first thing you lose are tabs for your Inbox, your Updates and your Promotions.

So far I have used tags, ThunderAI, Ollama and a locally hosted LLM to replicate the sorting of my inbox, but now I would like to be able to configure the Thunderbird UI to allow separate tabs in the menu bar for different folders, in this case Inbox, Updates and Promotions. With Inbox still being the gmail hosted main inbox and Updates and Promotions now being local folders stored in my local thunderbird installation.

Can the Thunderbird UI be configured to display folders as tabs as a default setting? I tried the "folder selection" button under customize on the toolbar but that just gives me a drop down, which is not what I want.

Меня бесит всратое объединение вкладок и вывод неактивных вкладок в "архив". Раньше куда более слабые компы/планшеты открывали все 100500 вкладок браузера при запуске. Учитывая что мощность железа постоянно растёт видимо пора обвинять вас в говнокодинге...

It was nice when FF was simple to use....unimcumbered with all the options...like the latest...profiles.

Why? It's getting to be as complicated as E and C..you don't need all those options - that's why I use FF.

Get rid, or allow the user, to pick and choose, and dump the unwanted stuff from cluttering the tool bar and other options. Just a suggestion that can be made to FF any longer. Use to be they'd welcome feedback.
