Hello,

I am struggling to set up calendar and contacts sync between Thunderbird (v155@ubuntu26.04) and my google account. I use a university account to access google services, so my google account is not some.name@gmail.com but some.name@myuniversity.cz. I understand that Thunderbird somehow needs to invoke OAuth2 process with google, but I do not know, what to fill in the "Hostname" or "Location" fields for Contacts and Calendar, respectively. Any help? Thank you.

Started OBS Vitrual Camera option. in Firefox the camera is no listed.

https://webrtc.github.io/samples/src/content/getusermedia/gum/

How can virtual cameras listed in Firefox?

``` $ v4l2-ctl --list-devices --all OBS Virtual Camera (platform:v4l2loopback-000):

       /dev/video0

SandbergCapture: SandbergCaptur (usb-0000:07:00.0-1):

       /dev/video1
       /dev/video2
       /dev/media0

```

but OBS Virtual Camera is not listed

Well, I am in a real mess. Three days ago I lost the ability to access my favourite website. I CAN access the website in the Brave browser. The website owner has told me that it is not a problem with my account with them so it must be a Firefox issue. Before this happened I had been trying to move and delete files on my laptop and have got very confused about EVERYTHING. In that I had deleted my Firefox recovery folder(s). I have managed to move them back into my Home folder before they expire. Now I am being asked to enter my "password" to initiate the restore. But the several Firefox passwords in my laptop are not being accepted. How can I get a new password? If that is not possible do I have to delete my Firefox account? What is my best way to recover from this mess? Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Up until recently (apologies, I do not know which version) when editing userContent.css on Debian 12 in the ' Developer Tools ' I could just use CTRL+S to save my changes and all was well.

Now it appears to have forgotten where it loaded in the first place, because (when using the shortcut or the 'save' link under the name on the left) it just opens the user's home folder at its root level or ' ~/ ' ...

Is this a bug that I should raise at bugzilla? Or has another bug fix messed this functionality up somewhat?

This is the ' mozilla-deb ' / ' Mozilla Firefox Debian Package ' currently at version 154.0 which is usually updated weekly.

In the last couple of days I’ve had a couple of alerts from TB when in other apps, seemingly random times, but possibly when I get an email (from memory, about Thunderbird requiring access to my Google account). I haven’t received any emails for a couple of days and I can’t send them (connection to Outgoing server smtp.gmail.com timed out). But, in TB account settings an outgoing server test was successful (Successfully established a secure connection to smtp.gmail.com:465). I also can’t pause calendar reminders, whatever I do they stay on the screen (but I can delete them with the X in the top-right corner). I haven’t changed anything in my TB or Google account settings. I’ve checked authorisations in my google account and TB auth is there. On my (android) phone, I can send and receive emails OK.

all tabs failing to play; is this a profile grep e unlock issues; GROK 5 linux ubuntu link action: terminal commands: ps aux | grep -i firefox ; kill -9 those PIDS; is the number one cause of firefox silently failing to relaunch after a hard kill

Could somebody please tell me what settings I did not make ....

I have four gmail accounts, say A, B, C and D. A is the default.

If I send a message from B to an outside email address, the reply routing is returned to the A address and not the B sending address.

If I send a message from B to C then the message is not received anywhere, it simply disappears.

If I open a browser and send a message from B to C then the message is delivered. So I know that the problem is with Thunderbird and not the email service.

Please tell me what I need to change in the settings ....

I want to sync calendars across Thunderbird and iPhone. (Linux Mint 22 Wilma, Thunderbird 140.14.1 esr)

I am trying to use the Apple calendar server to sync with. Using the Create New Calendar dialog box in Thunderbird, then applying the Apple-assigned password, Thunderbird returns "Could not find calendars at this location. Please check your settings."

I would appreciate help with this.

I use Ubuntu Linux on my laptop: this OS was updated two days ago, from 24.04 to 24.04.2. Since then I have been unable to access my daily favourite website. A banner showing ACCESS DENIED is displayed, citing "unusual activity". I have attached a screenshot. I have discovered that I CAN access the website in the Brave browser. But Firefox is my preferred browser. I have tried deleting browsing history, opening a Private Window, rebooting the laptop but nothing has worked. I do have some Firefox folders, on containing stored passwords, another containing a recovery file but I don't know how to safely proceed now. What is the best way forward for me to allow me to access my favourite website? Should I create an entirely new account and if I do would I be able to import all my passwords and add-ons, etc.?

This was mistakenly posted in the Firefox stream. Amended with apologies.

The latest Snap update on my Kubuntu laptop is marked as a BETA version. I haven't selected the BETA stream, and I checked and snap seems to be pointed at the stable version.

I like to keep track of changes at each install and there's no Release Notes available.

Is this an error at your end or do I need to change something to get back to a stable version?

Edit: Just saw it was already a known issue: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1959171

I've found out that on both Linux and Windows since the last update (154.0), the PDFs printed directly from the Thunderbird PDF viewer, prints out blank PDF.

To recreate this, open a PDF attachment in an email, simple double click on it, in the top right corner on the tool bar, press the little printer icon, choose either "Save as PDF" or print to the actual printer, in both cases, you will get one blank PDF page.

Hi, Firstly, thank you for all your services.

When working in a tab, Whatsapp, Youtube, or even Buzilla when I want to report this, the tab just crash's. Sometimes I can restore it immediately, but other times if I click on "Restore this tab" repeatedly, the whole window crash's!

The instructions for turning off notifications don't apply here, that setting is turned off and has never been turned on. Obfuscations about a Page Notification Window don't apply, that page of options does not appear. I get regular popups from Firefox to "turn on notifications" and I never will. Why is there not an easy and straightforward way to disable these popups? You seem to hide them by their name, are they notifications?

These are the annoying unnecessary waste of time tasks that drive users away. It doesn't matter what enabled them in the first place, I didn't. My explicit choice about notifications is clear and you have no reason and no permission to popup anything on my screen to question that choice.

Your UI discussions around, "it's OK if we do this for [reason], right?" needs to be modified to "for what specific purpose would we popup a question a user must answer, and how will the user react?" This is basic software design and it's really sad to see you fail this badly.

When I open WhatsApp Web in Firefox on my Android phone, it shows a message saying “WhatsApp works with Mozilla Firefox 115+” and asks me to update Firefox or use another browser. I want to use WhatsApp Web with Firefox. Please help me fix this issue.

So when I start to type `dis` in the URL bar to bring up Discord (yes, I use the Web version), I've started to see `Manage AI Controls`. This makes no sense to me. I have all those set to block. And `dis` doesn't appear at all anywhere in that setting title. Yet when I start typing in `ai`, that setting doesn't come up.

Something is fishy here.

This is v154.0.1 on Debian/Testing, from Mozilla repository.
