While using Debian 12 on two workstations running version 136 the "update available" would appear on the screen and remain on the screen with no option to update or cancel.

Because this happened on 2 Debian 12 workstations, i would like to know if this is a known problem as I updated 139.01 an the issue continues.

You will noticed in the screen capture update available has no options other than "learn more"

For about the past 24 hours when I go to youtube to check out a video - nothing works? I clicked on a video to play, got the sound and no picture. I closed out my browser and I kept getting the audio of the video and had to shut down my computer to stop it. Now when I go to a video nothing works. My cursor disappears when I go to chick on the video and I have to move it off to the side just to see my cursor.

I also use a service (VidIQ) that helps me see the tags on the right hand side of my screen for a video and the channel so that I can compare those tags to my videos that I am uploading.   Now that never load just a spinning dial or object like it is stuck.

I hope that you can get this fixed soon or let me know if there is something that I must do at my end.

Thank you,

I've recently added my iCloud account to Thunderbird, and can use this along with my other accounts, yahoo, gmail and so forth.

icloud.com, however, has a useful feature, which is that if you try to send an oversized attachment - anything up to 5Gb - it will automatically send it via Apple's Mail Drop facility: that is, it will store the attachment for 30 days and incliude with your email a link from which to download it.

This also works with Apple's Mail app, but it doesn't work with Thunderbird; with Thunderbird I just get the familiar 'attachment too large' warning, and the email is not sent.

My question is twofold: first of all, should it work? i.e. is there something I haven't done properly in setting the icloud account up; secondly, if it's technically not possible for it work, why is that? I don't understand the mechanisms of internet connection to know why this might be.

Thanks in advance to any experts on this topic!

I'm still running Windows 7 (it works for me) and Thunderbird (version 115.16.2 (32-bit)) has been my e-mail client application for many years.

Inside Thunderbird I have a series of sub-folders (which I shall refer to as 'folders') named & arranged by years & months.

Any received e-mails that are 'personal' (i.e. not news items, previously OK'd advertising, or junk) get filed into the current month's folder (which is 'inside' the current year's folder). (Towards the end of a current month I create the next month's folder.)

I used a wired USB mouse with two buttons ('left' & 'right').

When things are working like they are supposed to (and I have received a piece of personal e-mail that I want to store) I 'left click' on the e-mail (in the 'inbox') and (while holding the 'left button') 'move' the e-mail into the current month's folder.

(the 'problem') Once in awhile I accidentally click the 'right button' during the process of moving an e-mail from the 'inbox' to the current month's folder.

To-all-appearances the e-mail 'disappears' though a few times I have found it in an 'adjacent' month's folder (I also look in the 'trash' folder').

So far my only 'solution' (I at least have a copy of the message) is to go to my e-mail server (I have it configured so that it does not automatically delete messages) and 'forward' the message to myself (in which case I am shown as being the 'sender' when the message arrives in the Thunderbird 'inbox').

(my question) Does Thunderbird have an (undocumented ?) 'disintegrate' action ... where a message can be completely erased as a result of an accidental right mouse button click ... or is there some other folder where I should look (other than 'adjacent' month's folders and the 'trash' folder) ?

Onboarding with RSS subscriptions for a couple weeks and can't make any sense out of the folder hierarchy structure.

• UI's folder structure & the Subscription settings folder structure screenshots included.
• Folder A seems logically coherent: a "folder full of feeds". Single folder in UI. Multiple feeds (3) show up in the queue
• Folder B structure starts to become much more incoherent

   - Feed's are actually folders now. Sometimes.
       + Feed1 & Feed3 = folders. But UI 'folder' displays just the one feed, as if it was a feed.
       + Feed2 = folder, with the 'actual' feed within it. But then it displays in the exact same way as Feeds 1 and 3
   - seem to have contradictions running in both directions.
       + If they are feeds, is confusing they display with folder icon
       + Not clear why a feed-as-a-folder would display exactly the same as a feed-within-a-folder

• "feed7" situation I can't understand to be anything other than a bug.

   - Subscribed to the feed within folder C. It instead shows up in the UI in Folder B. 
       + Which bafflingly *only* includes feed7, and does not roll up or aggregate any of the feed/folders (whatever they are) within it.

Like the integration of having RSS within Thunderbird, but need some clarification. Docs (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-subscribe-news-feeds-and-blogs#w_folders-and-accounts) were not of use.

Thanks.

My Thunderbird v.139.0.1 crashed. It would not run at all. I downloaded Thunderbird and it was v.139.0.2. It looks entirely different and created a new profile. I edited the Profiles.ini and replaced the new profile with the old profile. (this worked 2 months ago when I bought a new computer). Now having done the editing to get all my old emails etc, it will not bring up the old profile. How do I get my old profile and the setup from the 139.0.1 look and feel. Thanks.....

I have a rule that moves email messages from backups to a 'Backup' folder. I also have another rule that moves emails address to myself to 'My Mail'.

When I start TB 128.11.1esr in the morning my 'Backup' and 'My Mail' folders show new email counts. When I click on 'My Mail' the number on it decreases and 'Backup' increases. This happens with other rules on other folders.

So, my question is this behavior caused my 'Message Filters' being triggered when I click a folder or potentially a latent refresh of the folders new email counts.

Thanks

I received an email saying that I had to sign in in order to keep my account. I did not click on the link provided since I thought it might be a scam. Was this a valid email? If so, is signing in now meet the requirement to keep my account?

At home we have a shared computer with Ubuntu and Firefox as main browser. Each family member has its own Linux user.

We use the functionality of Firefox saving passwords, however we've noticed that these passwords are visible between the Linux users. So, for instance if two of us use the same website, somehow our user/pass get are visible to each other. Is this behavior expected? How can we set FF to make the user/pass visible only to the Linux user who is using it?

Cheers

All of a sudden one day my bookmarks vanished. This is annoying, but what's worse is that I'm unable to add more. I click on the little star at the top to try to save a page, and nothing happens. I go into the sidebar, try to do it there, nothing happens. I click Command D (on a Mac) to try it through the shortcut and nothing happens. I've tried signing in under different log ins to see if that's the problem, but that doesn't work either. I'm totally confused. Any help is appreciated.

Hello. I just have a general question. I have read about it a little but I get mixed info. Some say yes, some say no.... So, is it possible to get a virus or malware or any of that spyware stuff on mobile phones like you can on a computer? Particularly Android phones. They have all these anti-virus apps and stuff you can download saying they're designed specifically for Android mobile devices but then I have read articles that say that the Android operating system is not the same as, let's say, a Windows PC operating system so it's not possible to download spyware onto it. I'm just curious and appreciate any info. Thank you!!
