I've been using TB on 2 of my smaller email accounts for several months and really like the way it operates. I'm nearly ready to add my main email account (web-based Outlook) to TB but have one final question. If I add the account to TB, give it a fair try, and just don't like the results, can I simply delete that account from TB and go back to accessing it via its website? I have confirmed that POP is disabled for my Outlook account so I understand all email remains on the server until I remove it. I also understand TB would leave the email from the account on the same server, again pending some action I might take to remove it. So it would seem that I could delete the account from TB and revert to web-based access for the account, just as I'm doing now, and the folders and saved emails would still be there. Am I overlooking anything?

For the last several days I cannot access my gmail on my PC with firefox. I keep getting an error message that says:

"We’re sorry, but your account is temporarily unavailable. We apologize for the inconvenience and suggest trying again in a few minutes. You can view the Google Workspace Status Dashboard for the current status of the service.

If the issue persists, please visit the Help Center »

Try Again Sign Out"

I keep trying, but to no avail. Gmail works with Chrome on my PC. How can I fix this?

For the last 6 months, my ip gets blocked from my website server about once a month. This causes me to locked out of my website until inmotion unblocks my ip. It works fine for about a month and then ip blocked again The conversation below was with my hosting company Inmotion hosting

(4:36:16 PM) Andrea J.: So you should be able to access the server now. (4:36:54 PM) Alan Johnston: Yes my email is working again thanks. (4:36:59 PM) Andrea J.: My pleasure. Was there anything else I could assist with today? (4:37:20 PM) Alan Johnston: What can be done so this does not keep happening about every month (4:38:32 PM) Andrea J.: You will need to locate the device that is having the login issue, (4:39:14 PM) Alan Johnston: That is the only email related to this site and It is me.

I am unable to send emails. I am asked to enter my password and have tried many times. The instructions to enter my password just keeps repeating over and over. I am at a loss as to what to do. Any suggestions?

Cox.net is transitioning from in-house e-mail to e-mail handled by Yahoo.com. Our cox.net addresses are supposed to (and apparently have) transitioned so that they still work, but are processed through pop.mail.yahoo.com.

It is my turn to be transitioned and I have been successful in doing so to the extent that I can send and receive using my address(es) ...@cox.net through Yahoo web mail and on my Samsung phone. I have not, however, been successful in either sending or receiving mail using Thunderbird on my desktop.

I have been successfully using Thunderbird with POP settings for years with four different cox.net addresses. [I'm currently just trying to get two of them working -- unsuccessfully.]

I am using Windows 10 on a Dell desktop. I am using Thunderbird 115.9.0 (32 bit). I have reset the POP and SMTP settings as directed by Yahoo. One of the errors I receive is: "Error with Account .... Sending of password for ...@cox.net did not succeed. Mail server pop.mail.yahoo.com responded (SYS/TEMP) Server Error - Please try again later." It then asks me to retry or enter a new password. I have checked the passwords saved by Thunderbird and they are correct.

I suspect, that with all the Cox accounts being newly routed through Yahoo servers that I am not the only Thunderbird user experiencing this problem. Does anyone have any suggestions? Is it likely to help if I uninstall and reinstall Thunderbird? Would I loose all my mail, etc. if I did that? [I did the delete and add account in my phone and that was successful, but I wasn't concerned about losing mail there as it is all on my desktop.]

Thanks in advance. billb1111

Hi friends. We have had some recent power outages when everything was back up running my youtube screen only shows the video but everything else is white. I will try to attach a screenshot.

I am running an iMac with system Sonoma 14.4.1 installed.

I have used Firefox for over 10 years with no problems.

Ubuntu 22.04, TB 115.10.0 (64-bit). A system update occurred recently, and TB was in the list to upgrade. Now, TB transacts email & such w/o problem. However, when I use the window exit ('X' upper right corner) or the File ->Quit choice, a status bar shows "Clearing Trash" or the like, and remains on the desktop. Eventually a system message appears that TB is not responding (wait or force quit). Nothing happens until force quit is used.

Same behavior screen is seen if I try to use the TB troubleshooting menu option.

Any suggestions how to diagnose this? Thx.

I have Thunderbird set up on PC and a Laptop. On the PC I have version 115.9 installed and the Laptop (which is a more recent purchase) version 115.10.

On the PC I can easily sort by "date", "correspondent", etc as there are click buttons at the top of each column but these do not appear in version 115.10.

I have looked at all the view menu options and cannot see that anything will help to change this. Was this functionality removed in the upgrade or is there a way to alter the view settings? The screen shot is from the Laptop.

TIA

I believe this to be a new situation; I've just noticed it for the first time in the couple of years since I switched email clients.

I'm running three POP/SMTP email accounts under Thunderbird. Aside from my Gmail 'primary' account, there's an msn account and a business one too. I use the 'unified view' mode for inbox, sent, trash, etc. and seldom defer to individual account windows unless searching for something.

I can't figure out why my primary (Gmail) account is showing up again, in boldface blue no less, just below Trash and above Local Folders. I feel I must have flipped a switch somewhere, but can't locate it to turn it off. Any ideas?

I have thunderbird backed up from appdata\roaming\thunderbird. I need to restore my corrupted mail app. How do I do it with Windows 10 and version 115.10.1? Can I simply copy saved Thunderbird over the corrupted one? Thank you. -- Don McGee

I've just updated to Firefox 125 and now, when I start to type in the URL bar and get my suggestion dropdown of previously visited pages, I no longer can see the actual url for each entry. All I see is the top level name for each entry.

This is not helpful, as I may have perviously visited a number of pages on that site and the information shown does not give me a way to differentiate sufficiently between those pages.

How can I get the exact url displayed on the suggestions dropdown.

How can I get those top level descriptions NOT displayed, so that only the urls are shown?

Nvidia RTX Super Resolution seems to only work very rarely or not at all compared to the Chrome version. In some instances it will upscale the Full-Screen Video. It will not interact with windowed videos at all. But it will never upscale a windowed version that exceeds the playback resolution.

Steps to reproduce for windowed videos:

1. Open any youtube video
2. Set the resolution to 480p or lower (as I am using a QHD 2560 x 1440p monitor)
3. Playback the video and monitor Nvidia Control Panel to see if Super Resolution has activated.

Observation for windowed videos: Feature works in Chrome. Feature does not work in Firefox

Full-Screen and Super Resolution: I have no idea what is going on here, on very rare occasions it does work, for the most part it does not work at all. If I had to give a rough idea of when it works, I would say that it is more likely to work when Firefox has been freshly launched.

I could neither see an active change in the Control Panel, or notice anything in the video quality. Both a quality change and feedback in the Control Panel occur when using the feature in Chrome. I have tested on identical links, with identical quality settings.

I tried:

• setting the Super Resolution Quality manually, instead of manually
• an incognito tab

Hello!

I would like to develop an application that runs continuously, say, at a panel found in a kiosk. I am considering designing it as a webpage that runs locally through the browser but I would like to prevent the users from interacting with the OS or closing the tab and the browser. Is there a way to lock Firefox in full screen and hide the exit buttons? Alternatively, do you have another recommendation for development that is more appropriate, for instance a native app?

Thank you in advance for your help.

I have several email addresses all on my own website and all with identical setup at the server end. I just added two new ones to TB and they vanish when TB restarts. I've installed them a couple of times, they auto install perfectly, but they keep vanishing.

I've checked that all the mail servers and ports etc are the same as on the ones that work OK. So I'm assuming that the problem is some kind of generic problem with cache / profile corruption etc etc. Assuming that is the case, what kind of generic cleanup fixes should I try please?

Many thanks.

I lost power to my PC when Thunderbird was running (thanks electrician who tripped the whole fusebox!). Since then despite everything I have tried Thunderbird will not open my mailbox. I get the screen 'Set Up Your Existing Email Address' shown in the screenshot. I can see my address book.

I have tried creating a new profile, copying across all the data from the profile in use until yesterday and changing the profiles.ini to point to the new profile. If I start using the profile manager (thunderbird -p) it shows the new profile but if I click it then I still get the same screen shown in the screenshot.

After looking at other support pages I tried deleting the .lock files and rebooting, still the same.

Under the troubleshooting information I can see the correct profile folder and open it, if I click about::profiles then the correct profile is in use.

It is a bit more complicated as I had the profile on a NAS drive but I have created a new profile on the PC and copied all the data in the profile directory to the local profile folder. Still the same results.

Edited: After trying a couple of other things - import into a new profile from the currant one, still same results, and changing the installs.ini file to match the profiles.ini one, also same results, I have uploaded a couple more pictures after looking again at other support questions.

I am on version 115.10.1 (32-bit)

Thanks for any help.

Firefox 125.0.1 update breaks all self signed certificates

After the latest auto update I can no longer access any of my management screens on my private network with self signed certificates. This is a real problem. I have attached a couple error screen grabs, but ALL of themn are the same. The information link says there is no workaround!

So how do I recover access? Chrome works just fine ... so it is def. a Firefox problem.
