I need help to organize the folder structure that was messed up during update to Thunderbird 115. Most urgent is one inbox folder which is now found under the accounts folder and not in the general inbox folder with all the other inbox folders. I would like to beable to move this misplaced inbox folder to it's original place in the general inbox folder.

Also in this misplaced inbox folder, its has other folders in it: template, draft, sent etc. These folder should stay in the accounts folder.

I hope that a future update will clear the mess, and other solutions are welcome :-)

Hi -- I hope someone can help with this recent problem that has cropped up. Videos that are supposed to be autostart, such as news stories embedded on pages of news sites or video feeding into a side panel on a college sports site I frequent are just continually in buffer mode with the little spin icon in the middle of the screen. This also happens with some, but not all, YouTube videos.

This is a recent development and I didn't do anything to change my setup. I did try updating to make sure I have the most recent version of Firefox, so that's been accounted for. If I close out Firefox and come back to it after a couple of minutes, the problem is cleared, but it only lasts a little while before it begins once again.

Any suggestions? Thanks!

I posted about it in a review, and per request, am restating the issue here:

the Firefox for Android app has consistent and ongoing issues with embedded audio players/embedded audio files (most often file types hosted on dropbox and embedded on a secondary website) where the audio file will either not load at all, refuse to download because it has timed out the file without playing, or stop half way through and refuse to reload.

So far, I've had about a 30% success rate with using these embedded audio players across platforms, with the specific websites themselves looking into broken links and finding no issue.

On the same vein, YouTube as used through the mobile browser, while more successful, seems to struggle to load the page while scrolling, and occasionally stops playing videos altogether, even when reloaded and hard restarted.

Hi, I'm using some typical browser extensions (lastpass, HTTPS Everywhere, Privacy Badger, etc.), but all of buttons stopped operating. When I click them, nothing happens, clicking just makes the icon be shaded like it's pressed. I tried updating the browser, signing out&in, removing, loading and enabling them again. Nothing works. Most frustrating is the lastpass extension, as I actually use it almost daily.

Also I assume that one can't contact mozilla directly about these bugs/issues, only this community chat?

Hello, I have Thunderbird running on two different OS's. Linux (115.3.1) and Windows 11.(115.4.1). Both act the same way. Both are have the same email address and are linked to two gmail accounts. I have noticed that web based gmail email there is only a "Sent" Folder. On Thunderbird there is a "Sent" and "Sent Mail" folder. on one account the other only has "Sent" They are not always in sync. When I send an email, sometimes it seems to "Hang" sometimes not. I am wondering if I can remove the "Sent Mail" folder or the "Sent" folder as that could be causing the problem?

Thanks in advance.

For the past year, I've been using a Hotspot to access school websites that have been blocked. Today, it took about 5 minutes to tell me it was a "server error" and to check if it was a firewall blocking me out (it wasnt). I restarted my computer and tried again, it took me to another error code that said "PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR" and no Google searches helped me, so I restarted it again and then it took me to another error message saying my connection timed out despite me not changing anything with my connection or Hotspot! I cleared my cache and browser data and nothing is doing anything. I checked my desktop settings and there was nothing there connection wise. I'm not sure what to do anymore!

I downloaded the new version of Thunderbird Mail, and now, I'm having continual trouble sending messages (but no trouble receiving them). A pop-up window keeps appearing requiring me to re-sign into my Microsoft account, for some reason, but whenever I press "continue" to sign in, nothing happens, and selecting "cancel" also has no effect. I'm already signed in to my Microsoft account on my laptop, anyway, so I don't know why this window keeps appearing, but I assume it's related to the fact that I'm having trouble sending e-mail. I have to keep closing the Thunderbird program and re-opening it every time I want to send new messages. This is becoming very tiresome. I've already tried closing and re-opening the Thunderbird program, but that doesn't fix the problem. I'm working on a Mac, with the latest iOS. All suggestions appreciated!

I'd really appreciate any help you can give me.

I've been using Thunderbird for many years.

TB has been working fine for all those years. and I have probably thousands of emails stored. Then, I went on a trip Sep 28 to Oct 14 and did not use Thunderbird for about 17 days. On my return, I tried to open TB. I found that a screen opened that I hadn't seen before, and TB seemed to be loading. While loading, at the bottom of the screen it said "Checking inbox for new messages...". Then, after a while it crashed without ever opening.

I tried to open TB several times after that, and I've always gotten the same behavior -- ending with a crash and never being able to open TB.

During the loading once, I clicked on Help >AboutThunderbird, which showed 115.3.3.(32-bit) and "Downloading Update 2.4 of 5.4 MB."

The last four Crash Reports, all dated 10/31/2023 are (the last one being the latest): bp-e634fd35-1b8a-488a-a9df-c23050231101 bp-73858652-569e-4362-95d6-030490231101 bp-992529bf-d1af-41d9-a438-43c370231101 bp-c39563fd-bca7-406f-8abf-85bde0231101

I thank you very much for your assistance. D. Prerau --prerau@rcn.com

    • So when is the very nice team from Thunderbird gonna solve duplicates issues once and for all? **

Mailer service is gMail. Incoming as normal as POP3. Never see duplicates at my mail account service gMail. Thunderbird version is 115.4.1 (64-bit). Platform is MacBook Pro. OS is Apple macOS Ventura Version 13.6.1 (22G313)

    • Or should I trash Thunderbird for ever? **

Joke, but we all need to have a certain grade of stability. Tired of suffering the nasty issue. Happening as of now since months ago.

Love Thunderbird, guys please commit. Cheers
