I tried to do an import of a backup profile that was very large, greater than 3 GB. System says this file is too big to recover. Error console is as follows:

I have been a staunch supporter and user of Mozilla for years, and a few years ago, began to use Thunderbird for my Gmail account on all my computers. Each time they asked for a donation when installed, I contributed because Thunderbird is an awesome platform to use. I am in electronic security field, and have to use legacy software for older platforms I have out there, as I have been in this field for 54 years, and started my own business 23 years ago. IP video, access control, security systems, etc etc. I have Windows 7 Pro desktops and laptops, and Windows 10 Pro machines as well. Daily I send pictures I take during the day, with my iPhone and email them to myself, to convey each and every job or project I work, kind of a daily record I keep in Paperport that I have done for years. Last evening I sent several emails with pictures of the past week, I can view them on my Inbox message page, typically, and then save all to the specific folder needed. Done this for years.

 Well, tonight, I emailed several pictures from projects I worked on today, greatly detailed, and when I went to open them in my Thunderbird account, the pictures would not display as normal, within the message opened, and when I saved them to a folder, they were invalid and would not open. File size is there, but no viewable image, does show the proper file name, iPhone IMG_1793.jpg, for example, but would not open.

If I try and open with Windows Photo Viewer it notes can't display this picture because the file is empty.

  I opened my Thunderbird in another Laptop, with Windows 7 Pro, same thing...

I opened my other Laptop, Windows 10 Pro machine, in Thunderbird, the same message shows the image within the message, as it did on Windows 7 did just last night.

 With 2 of my Windows 7 Pro Machines doing the same thing, am I being pushed out of using Windows 7 Pro by this means???

Every time I have loaded Thunderbird on another of my Desk tops or Laptops, I have donated. Because I appreciate what it does for me. These images are just an example, some had my CC info, could not attach that!!

 Please help me. Harry Savage

The time window happens overnight and can be for about 70-80 emails.

I am Australian & live in Australia, so the times are obviously quite different.

This is what I see when I click to read each email. --_002_DM3PR13MB0800FB153AD5FF01A5F88E16AD3C0DM3PR13MB0800namp_--

It looks like firefox recently updated with new privacy features (great!) What's not so great is that now it forces me to log into gmail each time I open a new browser window (not great). I have several different accounts that regularly use so this isn't ideal.

I've tried adding both gmail.com and google.com as exceptions under the cookie settings (didn't work). I even went and turned off the "enhanced tracking protection" on every step of the gmail login page and my inbox. Still kicks me out once I open a new browser. Any help to remedy this problem would be great.

I have two email accounts coming in to my Thunderbird app on the desktop. One account stopped loading messages to my inbox. I can get the messages on my phone for that account if I access them I don't use Thunderbird. I'm getting message that certificate if not valid. I did the trouble shooting for Thunderbird and cleared the cache. Can you please help? I downloaded the trouble shooting file if needed.

Hi

I hope someone can provide me with some advice.

I have used Thunderbird since its birth and have always found it reliable. However the latest release seems to be having problems with moving emails.

Example 1 - I moved an email from my Inbox to a special folder. The email was present in full before the move. Only the header appeared to be copied. I could not undo this and attempting repair on both inbox and other folder failed, as did exit and re-start. The result is that this email is lost.

Example 2 - I went to do a bulk move from the search window (something I have done hundreds of times before without incident). As usual CTRL A, Move to <new folder>, emails greyed out but nothing happens. Exit, return, repeat - same result.

At other times, both these type of operations work fine. But it is unpredictable.

Relatedly, I observe that on start-up the Inbox initially shows as <no messages> and takes several seconds to populate. Also, my auto-filing Rules are also working inconsistently.

These two points, and the two examples, are new issues for me since 128 release. I am using Windows 10 Pro on an HP Envy 17" laptop.

Any suggestions welcome as I am now concerned about losing emails!

Best wishes Roland

When I play a video in firefox android, the sound does not play from my bluetooth devices, only from the phone speakers. If I play the same video from another browser, the sound is in my bluetooth devices. The bluetooth works perfectly with all other apps. Thx for your help !

I need to move about 50-100 emails from one profile to another.

I am using the current Thunderbird and using POP3 on a PC running Windows 10.

I lost thousands of emails (not sure why) but after a few days was able to set up the profile from a backup to recover them.

Now I need to get the emails that came in and were sent during the week it took me to set up the backup profile.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Every time Firefox updates it keeps re-enabling settings on its own.

Specifically 2 settings on the general tab keep enabling themselves in the "browsing" section, "Recommend extensions as you browse" and "Recommend features as you browse"

I have disabled these settings dozens of times now, and every time Firefox updates it keeps re-enabling these 2 settings on its own.

Just now I updated to v128.0 and these 2 settings turned themselves on again.

Why is Firefox not respecting my settings? Why is Firefox allowed to modify my settings without my permission?

I have deleted and reinstalled Firefox already. I don't use profiles and am not signed into the browser, so no settings are getting carried over that way.

I use k-9 email on android phone and tbird on desk top.

I have messages on K9 I need to read on desktop but the don't appear on tbird client even though they are clearly visible on k-9

I tried to forward it but even tho k9 appears to send it is not delivered when I look in tBird

I need attachement.

First, here's how I process incoming email, which first goes to my Gmail address. I delete about half of my messages unread, and about one-quarter more after reading/scanning them. The remainder are then downloaded after I open TB on my Windows PC and select Get Mail (F5).

'Until about Aug. 20, everything worked as planned, even though TB was also downloading some of my Sent messages.

But since then, with no setup changes made by me, TB also includes ALL the messages that I previously deleted at the Gmail site. So I must delete them again, a tedious, annoying process. Experimenting, I overcame the problem by permanently deleting the trashed messages at Gmail before launching TB. It also amount to double deleting, but it is much faster that way.

WHAT MUST I DO to restore the previous functionality of this process?

I'm not a techie, but began using Eudora over 25 years ago, so PLEASE don't replies with guesses.

Recently a pop-up asks me to enter a password to receive/send messages in my Thunderbird emails. Each time I enter the password, the pop-up message comes back w/in seconds asking me to retry or enter new password or cancel. It seems there is difficulty logging in as imap-mail.outlook.com has failed to connect. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can correct this issue? In simple terms please with step-by-step directions. Thank you kindly!!!

Very recently, when I click on "write" to do a new email I get the normal form but the body of the email is totally weird - paragraphs of some sort of "code" that looks like this:

- PK?????!ߤ�lZ? ????[Content_Types].xml �??(�?���n�0?E���?��Ub袪*?�>�-R�??{?V��Ǽ��??QU?� l"%3��3Vƃ�ښl ?�w%�?=���^i7+���-d?&�0�A�6�l4��?L6?0#�Ò�S O����?X��*��V$z�3?��?3����?��%p)O�???^�??���5}

I need to delete this stuff before writing the email. What do I need to do to get rid of this? Thanks

Hi-my question is simple, why is Thunderbird locked to me past 08/07/2024. I have answered lots of security questions but still can't access my emails. Arthur Sutton

I seem to have a problem with Firefox's builtin PDF viewer. Instead of black text on a white or gray background or something else sensible, I get black text floating over my desktop background in the part of the Firefox window that's showing a PDF. PDFs display fine in an external viewer, but that's just passing the buck, isn't it? Is there a way to fix this on Firefox?

I suspect hardware acceleration is the issue, but everything else seems fine, so I don't want to just blanket disable hardware acceleration. How can acceleration for PDFs alone be disabled?

When open firefox I have problem , with may sites that appear and I cannot use it. The same problem I have on work and house with mozilla firefox 64bit. I checked my pc with antivirus and for malwares but nothing I have. Please help
