I am making another plea: how do I change the font size of the working bars in firefox? The Title BAR, the Menu BAR, the Tab BAR, etc. On my computer, they're minuscule, and I can't see them. I'm not a programmer, I don't know anything about code, so that limits the way things can be explained to me, or that I can understand. Several of you have been kind enough to suggest different solutions, but they all make things worse. I think I've screwed things up almost irreparably. I can barely recognize my browser any more. I've even tried to refresh Firefox, and that also made the situation worse. And now, every tab crashes constantly. Thanks to anyone who can help me solve this problem.

I needed to change my AOL password and when I went to change it in Thunderbird I accidentally deleted the entire entry instead of just the password. Now I don't see a mechanism to reenter that information. I thought it might ask that if I simply tried to reconnect to the AOL mail, but I get the attached when I try even though that is the information I use to sign into AOL

Thoughts?

Thanks, John

On my iMac, across all thunderbird email accounts, when I click on "New Message", the new window opens up with the Send button and Encrypt button blanked out. To activate the Send button, I have to right click on the Send button, then click on "Customize..." button, then click on "Restore Default Set". Next new message, same drill. This started one day ago and is a pain in the butt. How do I make the Send button live permanently?

Every thing will be working fine? And then I click on something, and it takes a long time. And then at the top of my prompt, it says Mozilla firefox is not responding. I've been dealing with this for some time now. You can't figure it out. This is happening on my computer. Also I would update it the program and the very next day.There's a prompt asking me to upload again. I upgrade, and then I still get the same thing.Mazilla is not responding.

Functionality and usability issue: I use the Thunderbird for Android app as an adjunct to my desktop installation. Recently I had occasion to reply to an email in Android to one "to" recipient and needed to add two "cc" recipients, but found no way to add the cc recipients without deleting the existing cc recipients and having to input the entire (dynamic) group again, but then was also stymied by that. How best to handle this issue?

Other than that issue, the lack of desktop contacts synching, and the lack of spam filtering, Thunderbird for Android has been a huge help, so thanks to the developers for their dedication and hard work.

I changed my password for Greenby/Plusnet today. Now Thunderbird is unable to connect to them. The password is correct as I can enter website directly. No problems before change. Grateful for help.

Should I reinstall?

I had Thunderbird on my Windows 10 computer. I bought a new Windows 11 computer and downloaded Thunderbird. When I try to set up my email account, I provide my full name (not my Thunderbird user name) and email address. The next screen has the message "Configuration found in Mozilla ISPDB ". I clicked on IMAP and hit continue. The next screen I type in my password for my Spectrum mail account. I have confirmed that the password works went I log onto the Spectrum website. The next screen has the Authentication error "Unable to log in at server. Probably wrong configuration, username or password.". I've also tried using my Thunderbird user name and Password instead of my full name and Spectrum password with the same results. I know my Thunderbird user name is correct but I can't be 100% sure that my Thunderbird password is correct.

I'm not sure if this matters but my email has the has the extension ----@socal.rr.com. This was assigned to me by my original email provider, which was Time Warner Cable. Spectrum bought Time Warner Cable a few years ago and I think Spectrum uses a different extension.

When I try to manually delete all my browsing history from the browsing history icon, firefox locks up and nothing happens until I click my mouse button and I get the message box stating that Firefox is not responding and it gives me two choices, close the program or wait for firefox to respond-

I would like to set up a passkey to make logging in more convenient, but it keeps failing. My network connection is normal, and I don't have a VPN turned on. After entering the verification code, I don't do anything—I just wait for the passkey to be sent. But either it times out or says it's been cancelled, even though I haven't done anything. I've also tried using mobile data, but the same thing happens. I hope you can help me. Thank you.

On my connected devices I had a device I didn't recognise and deleted it. I needed to capture details of the rogue device and unfortunately didn't record the details, in the shock of finding a device connected to my account. Is there anyway to see the history of what devices have been connected or where connected. It for an ongoing investigation of unauthorised access to my laptop.

Can anyone help

I am unable to log in to Facebook. I enter my email and password (both correct) then another page comes up asking me to log in. I click on log in and a verification page appears and disappears before I can click the "I'm not a robot" button. It then gets stuck in an endless loop. Incidentally, it keeps trying to log me in on a Facebook business page. What's that all about? Grrr.

Logging in to Twitter/X is no longer possible as of a couple of days ago. After entering the username, pressing the "Next" button does nothing. Using the Desktop or Mobile version of the site makes no difference.

I prefer to have the Contact Name only display in the TO: field of composed or outgoing emails. I already know their address is correct in my Address Book, why do I need to see it? Presently, the TO: field shows "Name <email address>", as shown in the first uploaded image.

I am a new user to Thunderbird and I have reviwed, and believe, set all the Settings correctly that I could find on the subject (see second uploaded image), but the results do not change.

What am I missing?

Thanks Matt T

How to filter all incoming emails to copy to another folder?

Filter has no "on incoming" criteria, only

Subject
From
Date
Size

I want "upon arrival", copy to ... Archive will probably do.

Alternatively, is there a setting for ALL Subjects, ALL Froms, ALL Dates, ALL sizes?

Thanks.

My eyesight5 is pretty bad. I'm trying to make the display fonts quite large (32), but nothing seems to be working. The settings allows me to select a font and set the size from a pull down list, but nothing changes. Presentation and functional operation should be isolated from each other as possible.

I have my settings set to open PDF files in Adobe Acrobat, but the latest version of Firefox has started opening them in their own viewer, which is NOT near as useful, and I then have to download it to open in Acrobat like I used to do. Why? Is there any way to fix it back?
