I have been trying to add my Outlook account for about 30 minutes now. Normally, I would use the beloved legacy account creator, but that doesn't exist anymore.

But no matter what I do, I can't log in to my account. And I am pretty damn sure I got my login correct since I managed to log in to the website and all other devices with it.

And the error message is also seriously amiguous. I just need someone to help me through this..

Tried to setup gmail account manually. Couldn't verify username and/or password. Thunderbird just opened a window with an URL in plain text and did nothing. Text of window below. https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth?response_type=code&client_id=406964657835-aq8lmia8j95dhl1a2bvharmfk3t1hgqj.apps.googleusercontent.com&redirect_uri=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost&scope=https%3A%2F%2Fmail.google.com%2F+https%3A%2F%2Fwww.googleapis.com%2Fauth%2Fcarddav+https%3A%2F%2Fwww.googleapis.com%2Fauth%2Fcalendar&login_hint=daryl_brenton%40wycliffe.org.au

I am running Linux Mint and Thunderbird 140.9.0esr (64-bit). When I try to setup my Comcast email account I get errors and the program basically stops. For example "can't access property "cleanup", this [#configVerifier] is undefined". When I allow Thunderbird to do the initial search and follow its recommendation I get this error: Error creating account Incoming server already exists

I have Tbird running on two other computers THAT HAVE BEEN TURNED OFF. I noted that if I tried setting up Tbird on my newest Mint installation, i.e., Tbird running on my Windows machine, it would also fail to make the account.

I am at a loss as to what is going on. Any ideas???

I've been using alt+a to open new tabs in a multi account container for a long time. Recently that shortcut stopped working possibly with the update to v148 as indicated in this reddit thread.

alt+a is not listed as a shortcut in about:keyboard or in about:addons > manage extension shortcuts or in my ubuntu shortcuts nor in any software I can think of thats running. I've disabled all my add-ons except multi account containers to no avail. I can change the shortcut to another and it works fine.

Why would just that shortcut stop working? What else can I do to diagnose the problem?

Before the last update I could enter a search term into the search field, and it opened immediately a box offering the different search engines that I have installed. Just one click on one of them and my search got started (or simply <return> for using the default engine) But now I enter a search term but my search engines are not offered anymore. I have to click the symbol of the current engine to the left of the field and there chose the desired engine. But with this the earch doesn't start yet. It's still necessary to click the "Go"-arrow or press return.

So it got more complicated.

Is there a way to get the old method back?

Thanky you in advance

Hello, when I am using a login form, it sometimes suggests an email I can use, but I do not want this behavior in case I am sharing my screen. And some of the emails that are suggested are also not mine to begin with, so I simply do not want Firefox suggesting it to me.

I would like to disable this feature altogether, but I have looked online, searched the settings, and yet I found no way of disabling this. I even confirmed that my Firefox Passwords doesn't have any entries, so I don't understand where it is getting these emails from. I would like help with disabling these suggested emails.

Recently I started having this issue. Whenever I send a tab from my phone into my computer, instead of a new tab opening in whatever window I was last using, a new private window opens and then loads the tab. At first I was only transferring one or two tabs so I didn't really care at the time, copy and paste the tabs into the old window. But when I need to transfer 10+ tabs? how aobut 40? Now it's an issue since you can't just move them. The tabs in my phone are normal too, not private. I have, of course, found no normal setting in either the desktop or android version of Firefox to control this behavior.

Over the last week I have been experiencing issues that prevent me from using Thunderbird on my computer. It had been working for a few weeks prior, with emails sending without issue. Without any apparent cause, and with the correct credentials set in my account settings, emails are no longer sending. They continue to be received with no issue, and I can move emails into folders etc.., which I immediately see reflected in Webmail. I get the attached error, every time I try to send an email, no matter which address I am trying to contact. I can log in to my account with the same credentials on different software on the same computer, and I have no issues with sending emails from that software, so I can't see how this would be an issue with my computer. I have tried removing the account, and adding it again. The credentials are accepted, but the issue persists. The email also works without any issues via Webmail. I have contacted the hosting company for support, but they have confirmed that this is an issue with Thunderbird. Please can somebody help?

Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS new installation. Thunderbird 140.3.1esr (64-bit) Adding an existing account Type in My name and email address and click Continue It says it is looking up configuration and it is just looping around and does not report an error. I have waited over an hour with no result. The only way to recover is to go to the taskbar and right click Quit. It would be helpful if there were away to know what is blocking the search for the configuration.

Hello, I am using Linux Mint on a desktop with the latest version of Firefox. Two weeks ago I could login to the Discover website with no problems. Suddenly I can not log in, but get an error message that something is wrong and I can't login. I can login using Chrome on this machine. My wife gets the same message when she tried to login to her account on my computer. After several discussions with Discover, all I get is "it is not our problem."

I am having no problems logging into other accounts with Firefox on this computer.

I have not explicitly changed anything on the browser or computer. I have done some updates which included Firefox. I can login on a different Linux computer using an older version of Firefox. Of course the updates were also to the computer and I will ask the same question to the Linux forum.

I really like Firefox and would hate to have to change to Chrome.

Thanks so much for your help.
