When will the mozilla vpn available for linux? I've been using mozilla for a long time, I tried to connect to different vpns but non of them worked. Some sites that I have to work on needs vpn but I can't connect to any of the vpn extensions on mozilla and due to this reason I am not able to do my work. So please make it available as soon as possible.

A large list of participants will extend the content of the "Edit Event" window beyond the threshold of the window, making all checkboxes (Notify attendees, etc.) and part of the list inaccessible.

This will also affect the Description and Attachments tabs.

With a lot of moving and resizing, the window can be resized to show everything, but then it extends far beyond the size of the screen. This is impractical.

The list of participants should never exceed the confines of the window and should be scrollable.

I recently moved from macos to linux and noticed that Thunderbird always reloads one account on startup -- by that I mean that, when I open TB, three out of four accounts display immediately, but the fourth one takes a moment, and then all its folders start appearing in the left-hand-side column. I had a look around and saw something about the .msf file being broken, with a solution being to delete it and let it be rebuilt. I headed to my profile folder but I now see that, in the ImapMail folder, the three accounts that appear immediately have their respective folders and .msf file, but not the account that reloads every time. I tried clicking on "repair" on the (unified) inbox, I tried checking the settings, but am not seeing anything that helps. Any ideas?

The new "Copy Link to Highlight" button shifted the "search with" option down, which I use regularly.

I'm not entirely sure what the new option does, but I would like to either disable it or shift it further down out of the way

When watching videos on youtube, I hold down the space bar to make it go at 2x speed, this makes the video and the audio de sync the more I hold the space bar, It's been happening for quite some time and I can't seem to find an answer as of why this happens or how to fix it.

Everytime I restart and open firefox and then try to access facebook, sometimes google, n=some news websites and probably other apps, I get a captcha, but it repeats no matter how many times I get it right.

I was advised to do this, but it's still happening: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6fX0_wiVKhw

But even that's stopped working.

I cannot access facebook and I need it for work (small org, no IT section to ask), and can't access some new sites.

I've gone to basic security settings, but that doesn't help.

What to do?

So I replied to a post on the forum and I got Congrats on your first forum reply! from notifications@support.mozilla.org signed by kpapadea from Mozilla Support

So why? You see I have asked questions before..... I have replied before...... It occurs to me that if Mozilla is using Gmail as their sender then perhaps this is a good way for Google to extract information about me.

Perhaps i am somewhat cynical and Mozilla is just trying to be nice...... I have used Firefox it seems like forever.......from Netscape navigator through all the iterations to the present apparent converging on the layout/format with those other browsers. Is this going to be another Thunderbird moment where decisions made about the formatting just happened to follow Gmail & Outlook....well I no longer use Thunderbird, so perhaps its time to say goodbye to Firefox.

Helium, Ungoogled Chrome, Kagi.....time to start looking and testing

You sent me a message: Did you sign in to Mozilla? Help us keep your account safe by approving your sign-in on: plus an "authorisation code", but I do not know how to use this.

Good day, folks!

I mistakenly posted this query to the Thunderbird forum. It is a Firefox extension issue. [Sigh]

For over a week, the WIKI2 extension has not been working in Firefox on Linux Mint 22.3. "Normal" operation (when it's working) is for a link clicked to a Wikipedia page to be automatically re-directed to the WIKI2 rendering of that page. This no longer happens.

Further, I receive this when trying to access their web site: Sorry, you have been blocked You are unable to access wiki2.org

Experience has taught me, when something that has been working flawlessly suddenly stops working, to ask, "Is it me, or is it you?" I'm not about to start twisting dials to fix a problem that is on their end.

Has anyone here experienced this same recent behavior with the WIKI2 extension?

If so, I'll leave it alone until the problem is fixed on their site.

Thanks in advance,

In my nightly broswer Codeberg opens once when I click to go to a repository the tab keeps loading and does not stop and can't accesss anything then. In Firefox I don't have that problem at all only in Nightly then in Nightly my Facebook emoji's does not show but again in Firefox it does.

[Edit:] I'm using Kubuntu with Thunderbird installed via flatpak using the flathub repo.

When attempting to add my calendars on our Nextcloud server, I can't get further then the second dialog.

Steps to reproduce: 1. New account > Calendar 2. Select "On the network" 3. Enter the correct user name and address (I did try the server address AND both CalDAV addresses presented in the calendar settings on the Nextcloud web app). 4. Press "Search for calendars" 5. After an extended period of time a dialog with a title "Adding a security exception" appears, claiming, that our Nextcloud site does not have a correct certificate (it does).

This is where the journey ends. If you add an exception, the dialog disappears and you are still at number 3. Trying again will produce the same result. Funny thing is, that you can press the button "Load certificate" in the "exception dialog" and then the same dialog will declare that our site does indeed have a correct certificate! But it will only allow you to close the dialog and you are still at number 3 and without any chance to add your calendars.

This is a completely new installation of Thunderbird. There are other folks that are using Thunderbird with their calendars on the same Nextcloud server and everything works happily. I presume this is a bug with the newer version of Thunderbird or something of that sort.

I have used 4 rows of site icons on my home page for years. (Linux FF since 2013, various distros.)

After an update, they became tiny AND so close to the bottom that a zoom of even 110 percent was unacceptable. (I prefer 100 percent.) 100 cut off the labels at the bottom.

I deleted my search bar from homepage yesterday, and had already deleted top stories and weather years ago.

Several searches over the last few days have done nothing.

Screenshot of zoom at 110 and straight 100.

I remember a time, where it was possible to simply drag a contact to a new mail to send it to friends. Shortly I wanted to send my wife a contact she lost, but it was no more possible, to attach it to a mail. Even an export of this single contact is not possible. Why?

I don't like to export the whole contact folder for her, because there are many contacts she will never use. So it should be possible to export 1 single contact as .vcf alone.

I would be happy, if the developers would rebuild this functionality for a future update. Thanks.

Hi,

The Mozilla VPN seems to have a hard time with the wired connection (or rather the opposite). As soon as the VPN is on, the connection stops working. The VPN do not recognize the wired connection, either.

There doesn't seem to be a mention of Ethernet connection anywhere in the FAQs.

Question: is the Mozilla VPN compatible with a wired connection?

Thank you!

I was switching computers and created a backup file. The type was html oddly. I tried to restore this backup on two different computers and both times it fails during the restore process without presenting a useful error message.

I can only guess that the file is corrupt, but it is only a guess since the error message is useless. It also seems strange that the backup didn't produce any errors (manual backup). Any suggestions?
