I didn't knowingly make any changes in Thunderbird, but my Sent folder says there are 2,669 messages in the folder, but displays an envelope and No message found. I upgraded to the latest version. How do I fix this?

(I haven't had time to move all functions to another drive.)

Extech

I'm getting "Thunderbird can't connect to the server" message, so I can't download messages. However, a message or two will finally download 1-2 hours later.

Same problem on 2 laptops, both running Windows 11. But I know my emails are coming in as I can view them via Spectrum webmail. So the problem isn't the Spectrum servers.

I've logged out and back into Thunderbird, and have re-booted my laptops. No luck. What to do?

Also, is there a place to report problems directly to Thunderbird?

Thanks for any help.

Hi,

two days ago, video embeds on Twitter stopped working in Firefox. Please help me troubleshoot the issue, so that I can either fix it myself, or present enough evidence to file a proper bug report.

Affected version: FF 140 ESR. I had some 140.7 installed when the error first happened, but have upgraded to firefox-esr_140.10.1esr-1_amd64 since. Didn't fix the problem. *Not* a snap package, regular .deb!

Affected OS: Ubuntu 26.04 LTS, not a fresh install but upgraded from 24.04 instead (which itself was upgraded from 22.04).

Symptoms: Videos on X (and Facebook) no longer play, the preview image is there for a split second, then an error appears. Video on for example Youtube is fine, though. Local players like VLC also do work as expected. Video on X worked under 26.04 before this happened.

The issue likely started when removing surplus packages and metapackages from the upgrade. According to synaptics, this is the complete list of packages removed: augeas-lenses bomber bovo clevis clevis-luks db-util db5.3-util dolphin-dev gir1.2-freedesktop-dev gir1.2-glib-2.0-dev girepository-tools gostsum granatier guestfish guestfs-tools guestmount icu-devtools jose kapman katomic kblackbox kblocks kbounce kbreakout kdegames kdegames-mahjongg-data-kf6 kdiamond kfourinline kgeography kgeography-data kgoldrunner kigo killbots kiriki kjumpingcube klickety klines kmahjongg knavalbattle knetwalk knights kolf kollision konquest kreversi kshisen ksirk ksnakeduel kspaceduel ksquares ktuberling ktuberling-data kubrick kubuntu-web-shortcuts ldmtool libaom-dev libarchive-tools libaugeas0 libblkid-dev libconfig11 libdbus-1-dev libdlt3 libffi-dev libfmt-dev libfontconfig1-dev libfribidi-dev libgd-perl libgio-2.0-dev libgio-2.0-dev-bin libglib2.0-dev libglib2.0-dev-bin libgraphite2-dev libguestfs-perl libguestfs-tools libguestfs0t64 libharfbuzz-cairo0 libharfbuzz-dev libhivex0 libicu-dev libjose0 libjson-glib-dev libjxr-tools libjxr0t64 libkdegames6private6 libkmahjongg6 libldm-1.0-0t64 libmosquitto1 libmount-dev libosinfo-1.0-0 libosinfo-l10n libpcre2-dev libpixman-1-dev libpolkit-gobject-1-dev libpsl-dev libpwquality-tools libpython3-dev libpython3.14-dev libselinux-dev libsepol-dev libspdlog-dev libsqlite3-dev libssh-dev libstd-rust-dev libstring-shellquote-perl libsys-virt-perl libsysprof-capture-4-dev libsystemd-dev libtirpc-dev libusb-0.1-4 libusb-1.0-0-dev libusb-1.0-doc libusb-dev libvirt-common libvirt0 libwebsockets19t64 libwhoopsie-preferences0 libwhoopsie0 libwin-hivex-perl libx265-dev libxdo-dev libxdo3 libxft-dev libxkbcommon-dev libxrender-dev libyara10 lskat lskat-data mosquitto mosquitto-clients native-architecture osinfo-db palapeli palapeli-data picmi qml6-module-org-kde-games-core skladnik supermin whoopsie whoopsie-preferences I don't think they are related (libx265 and libaom are only the -dev packages), but this is the only system-wide change on that day that I can remember. I of course tried re-installing these, but this also doesn't fix the problem.

On my journey of fixing this myself, I also asked the all-hallucinating knowledge randomizer frontend of OpenAI, which made me check a couple generic spots on my system and in FF itself.

I have created an account instance in account settings, and the "Test connection to server" says it is OK, but when I go to the mail tab the get messages button and New Message are grayed out an NO accounts are listed in the "folders" area. Not does it ever ask for my password to the SMTP server I have selected. I have an existing account with my own email service (Hover), and MUST connect to that. This is critical, as I need my e-mail to accomplish necessary activities.

Hey everyone!

I just noticed that post FF's 150 update, I can no longer drag and drop folders into my DSM window. This has been a non issue for over 6 years and all of a sudden, poof. I did find that you can still to this on Safari, but long term, Mozilla and Synology need to address this. There's already a post on the Synology fourms about it and I've emailed their Support Team to see what they have to day. Posting this here in case anyone has found a workaround in the Config settings pane.

Thanks! --Brian

It's been almost a week now, and my 2 Microsoft email accounts will not connect to Thunderbird anymore. All was fine for years, but something changed that I can't figure out!?! I have gone to my Microsoft email server and checked that my passwords still work. I even updated one and it works on Microsoft server but not Thunderbird's!?!? I even deleted one email account from Thunder bird to re-install it, but when I tried a fresh re-install Thunderbird still won't connect to Microsoft server??? I'm at my wits end, and may abandon Thunderbird completely if someone there doesn't help me connect!!!

For quite some time now, I am unable to sign in to my account at CanadianTire.Ca I get an error. The signon process goes to CustomerAuth.Triangle.Ca for the email and password input. When I click "Sign In" the return message is a yellow triangle followed by the word "undefined" (see attached).

All other browsers I have (Brave, Chrome and Edge) can sign in without issue.

I noticed that other users have the exact same issue. I have tried all solutions I could find. The browser is up to date as of today (150.0.2 64 bit). I tried troubleshoot mode, clearing the cache, deleting cookies, history .... On the web site I turned off ETP for CanadianTire.Ca and CustomerAuth.Triangle.Com.

I have used Firefox since it was v0.93.

H E L P ! ! !

When I select a line of text, normally it would get deleted/overwritten when typing a new line of text, but when I select text in Firefox and begin typing again, it simply deletes the first word in the selection and keeps the rest. Is there a setting to have ALL text selected deleted/overwritten when new text is entered? Selecting one word overwrites the whole word but when an entire line to be deleted is selected, only the first word is deleted and typing begins where that word ends.

I have multiple email adresses for different purposes, but all of the incoming emails are sent to the Local Folders inbox, where I have separate folders to save emails for the each purpose. I am able to manually sort the folders in the order that I prefer, however each time I shut down Thunderbird and then restart it, the folders end up in seemingly different random order each time. Is there a way to ensure the manually sorted order of the folders does not change?

Hello, I hope somebody can give me some guidance about two issues that are driving me crazy. To provide some context, I use Firefox to work from home and my primary interest is accessing government and bank sites from my country to fill out tax forms and pay said taxes, therefore the browser built in provisions that deal with web page development, shortcuts, Artificial Intelligence, Social Media are utterly useless to me. The issues are as follow: 1. I regularly access the website of the federal tax authority of my country and local state hundreds of times each day. After a while, normally two months, Firefox starts to behave like a drug addict: It develops a resistance to the security cookies from these sites that worsens over time, until eventually the websites plain out kick me as soon as I log in. The only workaround is to use Privacy Mode or another browser until Firefox starts to behave again. In 2026 this started to happen with the bank website too. 2. After a fit of rage after a failed task I was in the process of attemping to destroy the mouse when reason finally prevailed but not before I got another issue with Firefox: The browser now prints (To PDF and paper) every single item from dropdown menues in webpages that cointan these elements. I already tried re-installing the browser, doing a clear install, erasing cache and cookies, deleting profiles. Thank you for any guidance.

Why is Firefox blocking my access to certain form fields such as User ID, Email Address entry and Security question prompts to web accounts I have, such as a Rumpke payment portal? It blockeed my access so I cannot so you now for invalid tries because I could not key into them and locked me out of my account- sorry.

I have been trying to get Firefox to clean up everything when I close it down,

It is so hard as if purposely a 1000 development team have worked on making it impossible.

When I close it down, it must be completely sanitised, no previous site visits, login names, passwords, suggestions - nothing.

And I should be able to achieve that with one button press, not have to go through a thousand individual settings.

I have now spent an hour checking and unchecking buttons, it is crazy. For example I go to the passwords, I have to delete each and every one individually. Maybe there is another screen somewhere, but when I want to interact with "Passwords" I naturally go to "Passwords".

And still, when I go to gmail, it autofills the gmail account! Where did that come from? I have spent an hour trying to make sure it deletes everything when it closes down.

And it should leave no trace on the PC. no temp files, nothing.

Hello,

Everything working just fine last night. Wake up and Thunderbird will not retrieve emails.

Remembered this old message I got so I went through and deleted my second email address, didn't help.

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/thunderbird-and-yahoo

Checked all settings compared to Yahoo, still won't download messages. I can even send a message with my current settings no problem, and it does login, just won't retrieve emails. Gives me a connection timeout.

Anyone have any ideas?

Cannot send or receive email all of sudden in Thunderbird. When I the click the messages icon, nothing happens, and I get "Could not connect to server mail.twc.com; the connection was refused". When trying to send a m,message I get "Sending of the message failed. The message could not be sent because connecting to Outgoing server (SMTP) mail.twc.com failed. The server may be unavailable or is refusing SMTP connections. Please verify that your Outgoing server (SMTP) settings are correct and try again." No settings were changed and everything was fine when I put the computer to sleep. This happens on both a Win 7 and 11 machine Email is a Time Warner (now Spectrum) Road Runner account (twc.com). Spent an hour with Spectrum, and they say this is a third party (Thunderbird) issue. A friend has the same setup, and is having the same problems that started at the same time. Win 11 version 150.02 Win 7 115.18.0 (latest available for win 7)

Appreciate any help....

Hey there since a week when I brows with Firefox on Windows desktop the RAM uses jumped from around 60% spiked to 92-95% RAM and that changed just come a long a week ago. If change brows like Chrome different story, back down at 65. So you can also see a massive number on Firefox system running.

Question: Whats the reason for the change? What happend?

Best, Janosch

Hello. I have a question regarding a problem with exporting files in Firefox. For about four days now, when I try to export files in Firefox, it fails. I've looked into it, but haven't been able to find a solution. Could you please give me some advice? I've tried various things within my capabilities, but nothing has worked. Firefox 150.0.1 64bit

Today Firefox has suddenly started using ~20% of my CPU capacity, causing my cooling fan to run high most of the time. Since I had been running Firefox v.149.latest, I tried updating to v.150.0, but that made no difference.

It's not Firefox by itself (only Task Manager open) but whenever I open another tab with almost any website (including this one) that CPU usage spikes. What gives?!

Details: Running under Windows 10 Pro (yes, I have installed the ESU package, good until thi8s fall) on a Lenovo P1 Gen 2. Currently running Firefox inside a Sandboxie Pro v1.17.4 sandbox.

Please Help! -- jclarkw

Thunderbird stopped working a week ago, and I've wasted HOURS trying to uninstall and reinstall the app in hopes of getting it to work. Best I can do is get it to run, accessing my gmail account, but I'm interrupted repeatedly by screens asking me to choose my gmail account, followed by a screen that asks me to click on a 'give access' button that appears nowhere on the screen. Such a shame that you folks and Google have collaborated in a way that makes a very nice app completely unusable. If you and Google can ever get the access issues resolved, pls advise via email and I make one last attempt to get the app to work: rws.pgh@gmail.com.

The past few months, I get a periodic issue with Firefox. I've done some searches and looked, but nothing anyone has suggested seems to work. I also run the Chrome browser on this same computer (I have 2 Etsy shops and prefer to stay logged in to both of them, so 2 browsers are a must). NOTE: I've been doing it 'this way' since the early 2010.

This is a new Dell Windows 11 desktop. No issues with the computer. The browser is up to date.

I keep from 3-8 tabs open at a time. My Etsy shop. My email. My shipping supplier. Etc. None of these run a lot of hot graphics or anything. Suddenly, I see 'sparkles (the only way I know to describe it) on some text boxes/etc) then...the address bar starts with the flashing pink/magenta.

Appreciate some help in getting this to stop. Again, doesn't happen on the Chrome browser. Only Firefox. I've used Firefox for a very long time and appreciate it. So I hope that I don't have to go to a different browser.

Thanks in advance. I've attached a photo of what I'm seeing. Note that this vibrates...not static.
