Hello, so I am not very experienced and recently discovered how to customize Fire Fox using the userChrome.css file. I went through all of the steps that are required in order to do this. I set up a folder called chrome in the directory /Users/my name/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles/x1oheo82.default-release To test if it works I wrote this into the userChrome.css file: @namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* set default namespace to XUL */

  1. TabsToolbar{ background-color: #FF0000 !important }

and set toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets to true After restarting Fire Fox I saw that nothing changed. I double checked if there was a hidden file extension or if I might be in the wrong directory. I tried different code to see if there was some error in the code but nothing changed. I watched countless tutorials on You Tube and tried to find answers on google but nothing that I did seemed to help. I don't know if it has something to do with the operating system I am running or if it is a limitation of my computer hardware (I am running Fire Fox on an m1 mac).

Good Evening, I had to reinstall Windows 10. My computer repairman installed Thunderbird along with much of my software. Since the reinstall I cannot Upgrade to Thunderbird 91.8.1. The auto update fails and the re-install does not upgrade to the new version. I have downloaded the new version many times and it still stays with the old version after the re-install. A couple times Thunderbird said I had the new version after I re-installed Thunderbird, but after restarting Thunderbird it goes back to the old (91.7.0) version.

Should I delete Thunderbird before I try to install? If I do will I loose all of my E-mail and folder information?

I would appreciate any advice. Thank you, Terry Prather [removed email from public]

I got help with this from your group some weeks ago, but I had to reinstall my Ubuntu OS (linux v.20.04.4 -- using firefox) recently and can't recall the answer.

When I view a WikiSpecies list of file names (e. g., see https://species.wikimedia.org/wiki/Pentatominae), the instances which have been installed but never used should be in a different (reddish) color. I am attaching an image of a page containing a file named "Abadia" (first one on the left, just under "A") which is unused. I also am attaching an empty "Creating Abadia" which is the result of clicking on "Abadia".

Please tell me how to change the image of an unused, empty file. I recall that there were two different choices SOMEWHERE in the system, "Always" and "Never" I think: One of them forces a system-level color pattern which includes reddish unused items; the other allows the used to program arbitrary displays such as the above (typical example from the dconf editor is 'bg_color: #f0f1f2; selected_bg_color: #023C88', but this editor does not change the appearance of a file instance.

I am developing an extension. I am running the extension locally and I have noticed that it doesn't load on this page (https://support.mozilla.org). Is there some limitation to running extensions here? The same extension works fine in google chrome for this page. It is very important for me that the extension runs everywhere since it's an accessibility extension.

I use Google Workspace as my e-mail provider, and Thunderbird (PoP3 -- there is a good reason why I use PoP and not IMAP) as my e-mail client. This has worked very well for a long time. Yesterday (4/12/22) updated TB from 91.7.0 to 91.8.0. Previously, I would enter my Google Workspace password (only, once per session) to download mail, and my gmail password (only, once per session) to send mail (using Google's SMTP server). After the update, I was asked for both username and password to log into the Google Workspace account, and every time I sent an e-mail I had to provide both username and password for the gmail account. Fortunately, I had set a restore point before the TB update and was able to restore my system to its normal operation. Can you please help me with what is going on, and how to get back to normal operation under the new update? Thank you!

When switching on Thunderbird 91.8.1 (64bit) today, it immediately downloaded mail from my IMAP account followed by the message "Server not found - start.thunderbird.net could not be found. Please check the name and try again. Check typing errors / network connection / firewall / proxy etc." Selecting 'Try again' simply opened the 'Welcome' overlay leaving the client operating as before.

This is a first as far as I can remember. But in the midst of the other more problematical events that have been occurring, (see my previous question, recently updated discussing possible Settings errors retained in the Profile): 'Exporting folders with ImportExportTools NG' https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1373167

Can anyone suggest if there is any link between these events - and confirm a solution that would clean or replace the profile but leave (or restore) the messages and folders unchanged ?

I have been marking emails from a specific account (local councilor in a city I lived in until three years ago), and still the emails get through. I have installed 78.11.0 (64-bit). I would have thought by now that three years of "mark as junk" would have got the message through to the junk filters; that Thunderbird would, by now, have learned something. Is there a hard and heavy hammer that can be used to state finally that any and all email from "Krzstzyn Wzng-Tzm <rzdzng@tcndp.cz>" is Junk? Thanks Chris Greaves
