Hello,

I am facing a weird issue with my Thunderbird installation. When I am moving up and down my mouse on the account pane on the right of Thunderbird, the app gets slow and increases cpu usage to 80%+. I have tried disabling indexing and hardware acceleration but these didn't solve the issue. I also installed 92b1 version but the problem continues. On the 78th version there was no issue like this. Here I have attached a gif to represent the problem.

PS.: If you see a 50%+ on the utilization on the taskbar on the beginning it is because I was running a gif recorder to make the above animation. It usually runs between 20 - 30 % but when I am trying to select an account to thunderbird it jumps to 89%.

I clicked on an ad on my local news site and got cryxos hijacking firefox. windows 7. Microsoft security essentials does not catch it but adaware does catch it. The problem is that it keeps coming back. Is my next step to uninstall firefox and reinstall it?

Hi Guys, Firefox crashes now and then, and when it does, it changes my default search engine.

When this happens, "Browser Default" is added to 'search Shortcuts' and selected.

To revert back to Google, it has to be selected, and removed.

I have come to the conclusion, that this is a deliberate action, caused by some form of Malware or similar, as it is the only thing that appears to change, and always happens when Firefox crashes.

On the other rare occasions that Firefox crashes, it returns asking to return to previous sessions, and does so without issue - these crashes are extremely infrequent, however, the previous example is like clockwork.

Hoping you can help.

Cheers, Brad

Firefox displays the ebay.co.uk website in some sort of text-only mode. It's unusable.

I've fixed this problem in the past by turning off the Enhanced Tracking Protection. It was ok for a while, but today it's broken again.

And ETP is off, but the site still doesn't work.

I have a new doctor with a portal I've not used before. When I send a message, it gets garbled. Example: "I’m glad I pursued an elaboration of this report. It was mildly comforting as it says “has low malignant probability but does require follow-up." I don’t see a way to do an attachment so I’ll cut and paste." The part I cut and pasted was fine. I am on Firefox 92.0.1 and a Mac Laptop. The previous version of Firefox did this too. In this message, it appears not to like apostrophes or quotation marks specifically. My doctor doesn't appreciate trying to decipher them and I am not happy that he can't read them without a problem since we are talking about a potentially serious problem causing me a lot of anxiety. What is the solution? And when will Firefox fix it so I don't have to each time? Thanks!

I opened my email this morning and it worked for awhile now all will do is spool. I have shut it down and restarted and still the same thing. I am desperate as we can't operate our business. It seems to be only on my computer Kathie

I use an iMac with 3 displays as follows:

[1080p] - [1080p MAIN] - [2048x11152 Retina]

I use all 3 displays for browser windows but primarily the centre one.

When I drag a Firefox tab from the 1080p screens to the Retina screen, the UI is way too small to work with. All other applications seem to scale the UI properly though.

I'm attaching screenshots of: 1. the same website in Chrome vs Firefox on the 1080p display (both have suitable UI sizes) 2. the same website in Chrome vs Firefox on the Retina display (Firefox's UI is too small)

Is there any way to resolve this short of increasing the Firefox UI scale globally (which would take too much space on the 1080p screens)?

I'm using: MacOS 11.2.3 Firefox 88.0

thanks! Dean

Sir , Everytime when i login my gmail account ( ... @ignou.ac.in) a mozilla crash reporter window opens. Due to which lot problems we are facing as no. of requests are pending for rectification. Please look into the issue and do necessary at the earliest .

I am running Red Hat Linux Workstation with Gnome3. In Firefox i have an issue with watching video streaming and videos in general (Youtube, Webex, Company's livestream events). Video starts normally and after some time (up to 1 minute) - video just stops but audio continues. I already refreshed Firefox, did a cleanup of cookies but nothing changed. I also tried to disable hardware acceleration, also nothing changes. I tried different browser and it works perfectly in Chrome. Really want to have my Firefox to be only one browser I use so i would like to fix it.

What is the solution to the problem of sending email from Thunderbird? The error message is: Sending of the message failed. The message could not be sent because the connection to Outgoing server (SMTP) mail.shaw.ca was lost in the middle of the transaction. Try again.

I have checked both incoming and outgoing server configurations and they are exactly the same as they were before this problem started.

I just installed Thunderbird on a new Windows 10 PC yesterday. Everything worked, for a while.

When I went to use TB later at night I could not open TB & got a message it was already running but not responding. There were 2 instances showing in Task Manager but I could not close them. Sometimes when I tried a message came up saying "The operation could not be completed" and "Access is denied". I had to power off the PC to clear out TB.

TB was working again but just to be safe I uninstalled and reinstalled it. And it continued to work after that. Until this morning, and now the same problem.

In addition, when I went to use Firefox it now had the same problem. FF was installed several days ago but there never was a problem till now. There were several instances of FF in Task Manager and I could end most of them, but there was one where I got the "The operation could not be completed" and "Access is denied".

Now the PC was stuck with TB and FF that could not be closed, and I had to power off the PC to clear them out.

Any suggestions on how to fix this problem would be appreciated. Thanks

Hello.

Firefox Mobile has font problems that do not occur in Firefox desktops and other browsers.

In other browsers, it appears in normal size, but it appears very small only on Firefox Mobile. (For example, if a box of 100px size has a text of 50px size, the other browser is normal, and only Firefox mobile is displayed in its half size.)

I think it needs to be resolved as soon as possible. Also, I hope that "text-size-adjust" will be supported as soon as possible.

Please check.

Thank you.

When I scan a barcode using Firefox, characters are added/rearranged. This causes errors for our company's customers and inaccurate data entry. Scanning the attached barcode produced the following results in Firefox:

The same barcode produced the following results in Notepad:

I have checked for updates, cleared my cache, and rebooted my browser. I've also tried disabling active extensions.

The mouse-left click button does not work "with 1 site only", but works with other sites.

- I have followed the recommended steps shown in answers/replies to a similar question. However, none works at all.

1. 1- cleared cache & cookies
2. 2- tried safe mode and disabled/removed some add-ons manually as well
3. 3- tried different themes and default theme

• Please note that the same issue happens in Firefox on Android phone

I have been having this issue for 5 weeks already. as a temporary solution I am using the middle mouse click or right-click to open links in a new tab, then close the current tab

• • Please also note, that specific website works fine in other browsers (6 browsers tested)

• • • the issue DOES NOT exist in Firefox on Linux

It seems version 93 has introduced a method of reducing bandwidth by disconnect tabs from websites, but reconnects upon selecting the tab. This is causing havoc when I am logged into several websites. Sites tabs that do not have focus force me to log back in when selecting the tab.

I am not concerned in saving bandwidth.

How do I disable this feature?
