AdBlock Plus extension does not work after updating Firefox (to version 102.3.Oesr) on desktop MacPro. Deleting the preference file (pref.js) has made no difference.

This problem has not occurred after updating Firefox on my laptop Mac Book Pro.

Both computer use OS High Sierra (10.13.6).

Please advise. Thank you.

I was being nagged to update Thunderbird so did so via download & install as instructed (there was a message 'we will guide you through the update'). That did not happen but I installed 102.2.2 Everything seemed fine except the message pane in lower half of screen is now blank even when I click on an email in the list above. Have tried 'repair' but that had no effect. This is irritating, as the only way I can read my remails is to right click on one and select 'reply' or 'forward' ... it then appears as a new reply and I can see it. But in the upper pane that email rema\ins in bold, ie, unread. I am still getting reminders to upgrade even though 'About Thunderbird' indicates I have the latest version. Hope you can help with this!

Hi,

After years using TB version 60 due to a discontinued extension, I wanna try 102 now. Is the maildir storage format still experimental? In particular, I'd like to know:

1. Performance: Which format tends to perform better when a folder goes beyond, say, three thousand messages? 2. Disk activity: Is there any risk of maildir reducing my SSD lifetime, considering that it writes more to disk? I don't receive many messages a day, normally less than a hundred. 3. Disk space: Does maildir takes much more space than MBox, considering that each file takes 4k disk space no matter its size (at least on NTFS)?

Thanks much, Cleverson

I have updated t0 102.3.1 and now I can not send emails from Thunderbird, all are smtp and were going fine. I have gmail, hotmail, outlook, and institutional accounts, and none of them is working to send. From the servers I can send, the draft are saved as well. It is like all working fine but not sending. In all cases the error message is the same> Sending of the message failed. The message could not be sent because connecting to Outgoing server (SMTP) smtp.gmail.com failed. The server may be unavailable or is refusing SMTP connections. Please verify that your Outgoing server (SMTP) settings are correct and try again. Thanks in advance for your help.

I have already checked and tested each suggested step in https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/cannot-send-messages. But still not working. Trying in another network it works, but at home-network it does not. To test if it is the TLS, i did change security.tls.version.min to 1, but still not working at home-network. Any ideas? and what should I tell to the service provider to see if it is TLS or another issue? By the way I am on 102.3.2 version and the problem persist.

I need to exempt a site from the pop up blocker process. When I go to Privacy & Settings/Manage Exceptions, there is no text box or other way for me to enter the site. Am I doing something wrong or do I need to change some other setting to allow exceptions?

I received an unknown sign in on my Firefox account from a different city from Chrome nonetheless.

Is there any way I can check if my saved passwords were accessed from within my Firefox browser? Unfortunately, there's a lot of passwords which I need to now go through and change passwords to.. ugh

A while back i asked how to avoid the unique identifier / download token that every firefox installation now has when downloading from https://www.mozilla.org/eu/firefox/all/#product-desktop-release As a response you told me to use either of these: What's the difference between archive.mozilla.org and ftp.mozilla.org?

Both sites look exactly the same from what i can tell. Also you warned me that downloading from these sites can be insecure because the sites might be vulnerable to "hackers" or might have been "infiltrated" by third partys. What's better getting a unique identifier or downloading from the archive and accepting potential risk? None of this would be necessary if mozilla didn't push a unique identifier.

When downloading from the archive the sha512 and sha256 always match the installer, doesn't mean anything if the site itself has been compromised i guess? Then again why would it be compromised? Seriously? I could download the fire installer from the official site and from the archive and compare if both sha512 and sha256 match each other, if so i guess no compromise and no token, right?

Network Solutions upgraded their email, and I multiply-checked all my settings in Thunderbird (102.3.2) and can retrieve mail but the outgoing mail hangs and time out with an error. I just discovered it's not my settings, but there's no password listed for the default outgoing SMTP server (my own domain). (I have 2 email accounts, and listed in the "Saved Passwords" are 2 passwords for incoming IMAP plus one the other account outgoing SMTP, 3 total.)

Is there any way to add a password without deleting the default server and then adding it back in, or some other solution?

Thanks

I recently deleted some email from my Yahoo.mail account and asked for it to be restored by Yahoo yesterday. Today the time stamp on all of my incoming mail is wrong. I contacted Yahoo and they said that I needed to enable my location to Yahoo from within Firefox. Yahoo is not listed as requesting permission so I am not able to enable the location for them. I switched to Chrome and the time stamp in Yahoo was correct. I exited Firefox and tried reloading yahoo.mail, but it did not fix the time stamp problem. They suggested I contact Firefox. How can I fix this?

When printing, Firefox shows printers that are no longer connected to my Mac and were removed from my Mac printer settings in preferences. But, I am unable to remove them from Firefox. I already tried clearing the printer settings by clicking "Clear saved print settings" in troubleshooting, but the old printer names are still showing up.

I'm trying to add a second gmail account to Thunderbird but get the message "Incoming server already exists" in a box "Error Creating Account". Can anyone help me? Thanks - Simon

Email inbox contents lap top and Desktop differs.

email address sarwan@montana-rhodes.co.uk

desktop : no of emails in InBox = 143 lap = no of emails in InBox = 11000

Why this happens?

Secondly, I repeatedly get a notification to downtown Thunderbird, which I have done several times and installation was successful. What is the reason for further download requests?

I have just downloaded a newer version of Thunderbird and now I have nothing of my email account. Everything has disappeared. the mail will not open and all my folders are GONE!

How do I get all that information back. very disappointed in this program.

Please help me restore my old version. Carolee Simeoni

Hi!

I am an active user of Canvas LMS and I believe the most recent update of Firefox is breaking parts of the website (dashboard never finishes buffering and assignment details never show up). Right now I am forced to revert to a chromium based browser to use Canvas which is very incredibly inconvenient, and until the issue is resolved, I'd like to stay on Firefox 105.0.2 instead of 105.0.3. I know rollbacks are not favored at all, so if there are other options I'd be open to trying them, but I need an answer soon.

Thank you!
