1) Firstly, I posted earlier because I needed to add a second app-specific password to my account. What I discovered was that my Account Settings tab had disappeared. I got a response from someone that I had to change my email password, and it would reappear. IT DIDN'T. So I've changed my password and I still have no access to my Account Settings! What do I do? I really don't understand why, if I could log in with my old password, what the point is to change the password to correct the Account Settings problem. I need HELP!

2) I need HELP getting either Thunderbird (my normal email client) connected or change to a new email client that will actually work. The problem is that Thunderbird for some reason can't connect even with an app-specific password! I have been struggling with this for more than two days and there is NO HELP from GMX that solves the problem. And it's not just GMX, there's no help from Thunderbird. My sole source of help has been to post queries on the internet and follow what AI tells me which has been only part right. At least it's something. But now I can't even change my account settings!!!!

Can somebody PLEASE help me? [edited email from community support forum]

You guys keep hijacking my browser and stopping all my work on a near weekly basis. Shutting down my ability to work on projects and stopping my browser from functioning in the middle of use. I can't even pay bills without you guys interrupting my browser with your bullcrap.

This is unacceptable. I've gone through great lengths trying to stop you from hijacking my browser. I installed a policy generator and followed the instructions to put a policy in. I uninstalled Firefox's background updater tool. I disabled automatic updates in the settings to the best of my ability.

I've gone through everything I can think of trying to stop your forced updates. Its unethical what Mozilla is doing to its users. I even tried to lock policies with admin only authorizations but firefox couldn't read the file anymore when I did that. I did confirm today that the policy file was still working, when Firefox ignored it and shut down my browser till I restarted it. I confirmed that Firefox is blatently ignoring policies.

I just checked and Background Maintnence was installed again when I didn't want it. You're now installing software against my will too? What the hell is going on.

I have several email accounts that don't work well for me. Since Firefox has been my primary browser for over twenty years, I turned to Mozilla. I like your company's open source method and people-based philosophy. So I signed up for Thunderbird just now from your website. But I am not all that tech - savvy (I'm a baby boomer who started using personal computers at age 34 in 1984, and internet in 1990.) I'm 76 years old.

Is there someone who could walk me through setting up my new Thunderbird email account, and then moving my emails and address book from my current email server on Rackspace? And also disconnecting Apple Mail as my default outgoing mailbox, and set up my new Thunderbird account in its place?

I'm willing to pay for some help!

Requesting guidance on moving from Firefox Beta to the stable Release while preserving all data

Hello, I am currently using Firefox Beta and I would like to switch to the regular Firefox Release without losing any of my data (browsing history, bookmarks, passwords, add-ons, and settings). I would appreciate guidance on the safest recommended method. Specifically:

Is it safe to install the Release version over Firefox Beta, or could this cause data loss or profile conflicts?

What is the best way to create a full backup of my Firefox profile beforehand?

Should I expect any issues with add-ons after moving from Beta to Release?

Do you recommend enabling Firefox Sync as an additional safeguard, or is a profile backup enough?

In case something goes wrong, what are the recommended recovery steps?

My setup:

Operating System: [windows 10 ]


Thank you for your assistance.
