Although set to open previous pages and tabs it doesn't do so, furthermore I must sign in to all e-mail accounts, google, Facebook etc every time I open my Firefox Developer Edition

I have performed every suggested check that comes up when I put this question to the big wide web,but cannot find the solution. Castanet.net will load, but not open any secondary sites on windows 11,but it will on Chrome on my PC. My laptop with windows 10 has no issue. This has been going on for months and I am ready to just "fire" firefox for good.

I'm just getting set up with Thunderbird. I used to use Postbox, and imported my Postbox profile into Thunderbird, which overall worked great – it got all my local email folders, and brought in my Apple email account, and so forth. The only wrinkly I've noticed so far is that it also created an account names "server7.invalid" that I can't delete. If I go to Account Settings, for "server7.invalid" it states "The following is a special account. There are no identities associated with it." The only items underneath it are "Spam Settings" and "Disk Space". There is no red Delete button for it, the way there is for my two real (IMAP) email accounts. Viewed on the Mail tab, it appears to contain on "Trash" and "Outbox", and both of those are empty. This weird invalid account doesn't seem to be doing any harm, but of course it is ugly and I just want it to go away. Help?

whenever I switch between applications the menu bar will toggle itself on when I switch back to fire fox before immediately going away after clicking anything in a tab. this is really annoying and nothing I have tried to keep it disabled has worked. its honestly very frustrating. pressing alt does nothing, turning it off manually does nothing because it turns back on and then off when I switch applications. turning off different extensions does nothing either.

Hello,

I have to add the Password every time I open Thunderbird because I removed the Password myself after I read this:

<<<< ThundaMike Mozilla Staff 7/28/25, 9:15 PM more options Sounds like you are almost there.

Building off what @david said above, try this:

In Thunderbird, go to Settings > Privacy & Security.

Scroll down to the Passwords section and click Saved Passwords….

Find your email account in the list and remove the saved password.

Restart Thunderbird.

When prompted, enter your new password. >>>

My doing this it removed the .twc password Log In totally in that Settings. I do not see the "my twc.com" in the settings of Tools, Privacy & Security, then Saved Passwords in the list, I only see the Hotmail account settings I have in Thunderbird. Removing it like ThundaMike wrote really removed all the TWC Password and Information.

Can someone help me restoring or re-enter my Mozilla Thunderbird info back into Tools, Privacy & Security, then Saved Passwords so I do not have to type in the Password every time I open Thunderbird.

Thank you so much for your time and efforts I truly appreciate it.

Hi!

I have some problems with Firefox on Android.

I often visit the Swedish public service news site "www.svt.se/nyheter".

Sometimes some videos won't play, but if I open the same page in Chrome, playback starts as it should. One example is the video in this article:

https://www.svt.se/nyheter/lokalt/smaland/over-400-kvadratmeter-parkslide-ska-bort-vaxjo-testar-ny-metod

A general problem is that I almost always have to reload the tab, to be able to watch the video, when I open an article in a new tab. The first time I press play, the video freezes. The sound plays but the image becomes static and pixelated, often in shades of green. One example is this article:

https://www.svt.se/nyheter/lokalt/stockholm/uppgifter-sjukdomsfall-bakom-bussolyckan-i-stockholm

I have a Google Pixel 5 with Android 14 and Firefox version 145.0 (but the problem has existed in previous versions).

Thanks in advance!

I have a few web pages on my local network that are behind basic HTTP authentication. If I try to navigate to any of these sites in Firefox for Android, I get the popup to enter my credentials, but after entering my credentials, the page just never loads. The loading indicator just stays in place.

I do get a 401 unauthorized if I don't enter correct credentials, but with the correct credentials entered the page juat never loads.

I've tried clearing site data, disabling extensions, and disabling protection features like tracking protection and dns protection, but none of that resolves the issue.

I also tried Firefox Foxus to see if my particular installation is borked somehow, but Firefox Focus has the same issue.

A different mobile browser though, such as Brave, loads the page just fine after my credentials are entered. Works just fine in Firefox desktop as well.

Is basic HTTP authentication just broken in Firefox for Android? Are there any other workarounds I can try?

Hello!

1. I have a question about Thunderbird. Why does saving an email to the local hard drive take significantly longer in newer versions, for example Thunderbird Setup 144.0.1, compared to older versions like Thunderbird Setup 115.18.0? What could be the reason for this? How can this issue be resolved or what might be causing it?

2. Could you please inform me which parameters in the advanced settings have been added or changed in the new Thunderbird version 144.0.1 compared to version 115.18.0? Also, what might cause a significant increase in the time it takes to save a received email to the local hard drive in the new version?

Thank you in advance for your help!

Comcast required me to change the password for my secondary Thunderbird email account. Now secondary Thunderbird account password doesn't work. It is my understanding that my secondary Thunderbird password has to match the one on Comcast. I have tried numerous times to try to change it and have not been successful. I have tried to follow the instructions I have found but instructions don't seem to work. Apparently I am doing something wrong. Would appreciate your help.

After trying suggested "fixes" still unable to get bookmarks restored on my Firefox account, and can't add any new ones either. Should I reinstall Firefox?

A month ago I downloaded Linux Ubuntu 24.04.3 onto my Microsoft Surface Pro. Was never able to get the touch screen to work, but, the printer worked fine. After the recent Firefox update, however, I am unable to print. The preview page does not load. Not tech savvy, here, definitely not an administrator. How do I fix this? Thanks for any help.

out of nowhere my firefox bookmarks no longer appear. I am getting the following msg "'

The bookmarks and history system will not be functional because one of Firefox's files is in use by another application. Some security software can cause this problem.

In an attempt to fix this problem, I have done the following:

• closed the browser and re-opened it
• rebooted my computer
• reinstalled my security software
• uninstalled firefox
• Reinstalled firefox

None of these steps have fixed the problem??????

Any ideas would be appreciated!

popped up after an update, not only is it slightly distracting but also annoying as now when i try to pick up or select a tab by putting my mouse at the top of the screen it does nothing, as i select the useless black bar instead

Hello, I love the new mascot wallpaper on desktop (and I hope we get more), but when will we see the wallpapers on mobile? I also would would a downloadable version of those wallpapers. Thanks!

I've used Thunderbird for years. Just came back from vacation and I can no longer receive email from Comcast. I get a message stating timeout connecting to the IMAP server. I have tried removing my account and installing it again using the automatic installation. Still cannot connect to the server. Interestingly I send send an email which goes through even though I get an IMAP connection error. I have tried removing and reinstalling my account. I have gone onto Comcast and made sure that third party mail programs can have access. I do not have a VPN. I am using standard Windows Defender security. Never had a problem before this but I went in and put in an exclusion for Thunderbird anyway. Very frustrated, any help would be appreciated.

Earlier this autumn my mail provider Telia changed mail platform, and I have problem that synching of Inbox is not working properly after that Thunderbird has been running for some time. Other folders are synched if I click on that folder. Then after some time time the Inbox is updated automatically again. Sometimes after a few hours, sometimes next morning. If I restart Thunderbird it work again for some time. Or if I change the "Connection security" field it also starts working for some time.

Is there somewhere some log to see why the synching stops?
