Just updated Firefox to version 112.2 on my iPad which has iOS 15 Did the update via the apple App Store. Relaunched (restarted) Firefox and ALL tabs that were open are Gone! I can’t find the “restore previous session” option anywhere.

Can you tell me where to find it? How do I get the previous session back?!?

I’ve been using Firefox for years. Firefox not starting up after the update with all the previous tabs open is devastating to me. I need to get the previous session restored. Please help

I am using Thunderbird version 102.11.1 64bit using POP with a Gmail Account. Ocassionally, I have to use Gmail in my Edge browser to send or reply to a message, only to find it appears in Thunderbird.

I have exported the calendar entries to an ics file. When I try to import them on another PC it fails with an error indicating something about the entries having dismissed an alert and needing to be read only. How do I get around this?

Since the task limit option seems to have been obliterated? I believe the many more "programs" and the events they create for windows to handle is causing all sorts of virtual memory problems. Changing win10 advanced system settings from performance for programs to background services seems to have restored Firefox performance in my case, see: 10 advanced system settings win10 advanced system settings performance programs vs background services Is there an about:config option that would allow one to achieve the same "programs" limiting option as before? This laptop has 16 gig of memory and I used to successfully have even better Firefox performance with windows virtual memory turned off, but eventually I would get crashes. I can understand why Firefox was modified in a way to better localize the source of crashes, but in my case it has degraded performance. Thanks Mozilla for a great product I have valued for years!!!!

I'm having a problem using my bank website with Firefox - I get a message when I move from one page to another, and that message closes the bank website - Here is the message: "Bad Request Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. Size of a request header field exceeds server limit." It is very important to me to be able to view my accounts and investments daily - please help me solve this!

I wrote this on 13 June 2022: ...I am signed into a Firefox account. I have used this account on at least three different computers. I have downloaded the application anew at least a dozen times.

Firefox randomly, from where I sit, opens things in French rather than English. How can I keep it in English unless otherwise specified (I occasionally want German or Japanese)?

Thank you...

None of the suggestions worked. I reported that, but the thread was archived rather than answered.

How can I get all the info out of my account and try to start another that speaks English reliably?

Thank you.

I want to connect one of my Gmail account using OAuth2 and I face a blank page after accessing the Google connection page and entering my email address. It only happens on this account.

I have no issues to connect other Gmail accounts, and I tested 4 of them. Is there a way to know where does the issue come from and/or how to solve this? I already applied everything advised in https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/automatic-conversion-google-mail-accounts-oauth20, to no avail.

My question is in the subject line. "Will the new Supernova interface and Thunderbird redesign cause problems with or disable old extensions?"

It's very frustrating to have to spend hours finding extension replacements when the old ones no longer work. The last time a TB update changed things like this, I had to waste a lot of time doing this. I had to hold off on updating TB for weeks in fact, because doing so would have disabled so many critical extensions that I was using. Eventually, I was able to find replacement extensions (usually having to embrace feature degradation though) and in other cases simply had to give up conveniences that I had grown to take for granted.

I don't welcome the prospect of having to do this kind of thing all over again.

tried searching for this but unfortunately i didn't find any relevant posts

userChrome.css

the css is;

appreciate any feedback because there seems to be an issue with the above

When I log in, refresh, or just open up the website, I'm met with an error message attached below. I use a HP Pavillion Laptop, Windows 11, and am on version 113.0.2 (64-bit). I've tried the following: - Make sure spotify is up to date - Restart my router - Make sure 'Widewine Content Decryption Module provided by Google Inc.' is enabled. - Allow Firefox to play DRM controlled content - Disabled my plugins - Tested this on other browsers (they work) - Made sure I'm not using a VPN. Oddly enough, Spotify's web player seems to function alright in Private mode and the app is fine too. I will try any all solutions presented, please.

I go to youtube, open a video and the audio plays just fine, except there is no visual. The video says its playing and I can hear it normally but I can't see anything. Subtitles show up, but the place where the video is supposed to be is just blank, the same as the background of the page. Weirdly if I click the settings button on youtube, the one next to the sign in or account button, the video will display as long as that menu is up. If I close the menu the video goes away.

I have refreshed firefox, deleted and reinstalled firefox, removed all my extensions, turned hardware acceleration off (and then back on when it didn't work) as was recommended in a similar post a few years ago, and restarted my computer. Youtube still won't show me a video. It works fine on chrome, just not firefox.

I uploaded a screenshot of an ad, which doesn't play but shows the outline of the video player, a screenshot of a normal video where the area the video should be in is just more indistinct background, a screenshot of the video appearing normally when I have the settings menu open, and a screenshot of the captions loading properly over an empty void.

Edit: I installed the Enhancer for Youtube extension? Which I haven't ever installed beofre? And now Youtube works? Why

2nd Edit: Its broken again. I changed literally nothing, just restarted my computer for an update but im getting blank screens again

I have had the same issues with TB freezing and locking up my PC that many here have had. For me, this has now gone on for almost 3 years. I have done everything I can think of, and everything I have read about online to deal with the constant freezing. I have: --upgraded countless times (now on Ver 102.9.0, 64 bit, Win 10, 32GB RAM, 3TB hard drive) --reinstalled Thunderbird many times --deleted various profiles and created new ones, deleted various config files as suggested. --reinstalled Windows 10, upgraded all associated files, drivers, etc. --started Windows in Safe Mode --disabled all add-ons and extensions in TB --reset all toolbars and controls in TB --started Thunderbird in Troubleshoot Mode --gave an exception to TB in my Windows Defender [and turned off Defender entirely] --ran MANY virus scans --disabled ALL virus software

Thunderbird is the ONLY piece of software on this PC that locks it up. It exhibits the same behavior that many here are seeing: freezes when I try to click on something; freezes when I try to reply to an email; freezes for no apparent reason. I can't MAKE it freeze up... it just seems to do it at random, constantly. Right now, it's open on another screen and has been frozen for about 3 minutes, and just unfroze. Most of the time, it freezes so that I cannot shut TB down. It is completely unresponsive. Sometimes it will freeze the computer so that I cannot do ANYTHING... I cannot open Task Manager and force a shutdown. Eventually, it releases and works again, only to freeze up a few minutes later.

I'm pretty much out of ideas, but I continue to browse online, looking for answers. As I said, three years of this is enough, and I see complaints about this going back even further. I love Thunderbird. I'm a longtime user and have not found any email client that comes close to the way TB works for me, so I'm VERY reluctant to leave. But I'm really tired of being a beta tester. And yes, I have donated many times over the years, and I'm happy to do so. I'm not concerned with the money. I just want it to work like it used to. If you have any fresh ideas, I'm very open to hearing them. But a warning, that I have likely already tried the fixes offered. I appreciate any input, in any event.

So, unless a miracle comes along, I reckon I'll have to cut bait and find a replacement for Thunderbird. Thanks for allowing me to blow off some long-held frustration.

best,

Please excuse my unfamiliarity with the technical vocabulary.

Earlier this year I switched on Thunderbird to see what new emails had arrived. It started downloading ALL my emails from two of the five email accounts I have. I have a lot of emails as the accounts date from 2010.

Because I was concerned that I might exceed limits on the number of emails I can store on Thunderbird I spent hours going through the different folders and deleting as many of the duplicates as I could.

I switched on Thunderbird today and saw that the same process was happening again. In the time it took me to click on 'Work Offline' it had downloaded 263 emails I already have!

I would be very grateful if someone could tell me:

How can I stop it downloading the hundreds of other old emails? How can I stop this process ever happening again? Why is it happening at all?

Thank you for taking the time to read my request.

For obvious reasons I have unticked the 'Email me when someone answers the thread' so I may be a little slow in acknowledging any responses.

I have used Thunderbird for MANY years, so I'm not new to it. When using address book I want to be able to select multiple non-contiguous addresses and send email to those addresses only. No matter which of the hints I try in your new instructions, I cannot get this to work. I select one address, press the appropriate key to select the next one, but then first one de-selects. I have spent LITERALLY hours experimenting in an attempt to get this feature to work.

It doesn't work on my iMac or my MacBook Pro, both of which are using the latest Mac OS and the latest Thunderbird release.

Help!

I just got an add-on called LMMS Music Studio. But every time I click on their icon I am taken to something else called "https://www.offidocs.com/edit-lmms.php?username=810908&fileurl=newfileoriginal" Any ideas?

Hello At the moment I is not able to log into an official Spanish WEB-site using Firefox version: 113.0.2 (64-bit) /Windows 11. I have sent the following question to the certificate issuer (accv.es):

Anyone having suggestions how to fix the problem ?
