Just recently, I've been having problems with websites run by Cloudflare. Whenever I attempt to access ANY website that is operated by Cloudflare, I'm often presented with a blank page, or a Firefox error message. Sometimes I'm even presented with the DDoS protection error, even though my computer is clean having being scanned by Kaspersky and Malware Bytes.

I reiterate this and say that it's only Cloudflare sites that are causing problems. Very occasionally they will work for up to an hour or so but most of the time it is error messages or blank pages. Interestingly, other web servers such as Amazon, OVH SAS and Akamai all run with no problems so I wonder what is Cloudflare's problem? Is this something to do with my browser or the web hosting services?

Every day my Thunderbird crashed when getting email. I assumed it was a corrupt email rule, annoying but not sure how to address. Incidentally a few months ago, due to another project, I had to move my Thunderbird profile from my Windows machine to my Mac and when I did the crashing stopped. That project has now finished and I've moved my profile back to my Windows machine and the problem is back. I've installed the latest 102.13.0(64 bit) version of Thunderbird, but no difference. Are there any logs that might show in a bit more detail what's going on ? The log that's shown with the "Thunderbird has crashed" message seems to be little use.

Any other suggestions as to why the mac is happy but Windows isn't ?

Cheers

A few days ago, Thunderbird asked for the password to my Yahoo mail account. I've been using Thunderbird to access my Yahoo emails for a few years and I haven't changed the password, so I thought it was strange, but I entered the password. I can access my Yahoo emails through other apps without a problem. I think I may have entered the wrong password first time, but checked the password on the other apps, so I know I'm using the right one now. I'm getting the error message "Unable to login at server. Probably wrong configuration, username or password." I've tried removing the email account and re-adding, but it still fails with to connect. Anyone have any ideas, thanks.

Since the last FF update (115.5esr, Windows 8.1 Pro) I keep getting the following error message when I try to access one particular website:

The page isn’t redirecting properly An error occurred during a connection to www.doordash.com.

   This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

I have tried virtually all the solutions suggested online. I have cleared my cache, deleted cookies and site data, and I have tried to access the site using Troubleshooting mode, all to no avail. I contacted support for the particular website and they have no difficulty accessing the site with FF.

I can access the site in question with the Chrome browser, so the issue would appear to lie with Mozilla. I use this particular site frequently and would much prefer to continue to access it using it with FF, as I have done for over a year. I just installed Chrome on my Windows 8.1 Pro PC solely for the purposes of accessing this one website.

Help in resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Hi guys. I'm using TB 102.1.2 (32-bit) brasilian portuguese version. I have multiply accounts configurated in my TB, derefore, I have more then one SMTP server configurated. I setup the second server as default server (button "set as deault" in SMTP server configuration folder), however, every time I start a new email message, TB selects allways the first SMTP server to send the message. It looks like the default SMTP setting is not recognized by TB and it uses the first SMTP server in the list every time. Thanks for the help and best regards for everyone.

So I have never had a problem with YouTube up until yesterday, anytime I try to watch a video and click play or anywhere on the video it just has a circle that spins in the middle around a youtube button, or sometimes just a black screen.

I have tried clearing Cookies & Cache, tried in safe mode, tried with a new profile, disabled hardware acceleration, I even uninstalled and re-installed Firefox.

Still for some reason I am unable to watch videos and only on Firefox, it works fine in Chrome and Edge browsers.

I am at a loss on how to fix this, and I really don't want to have to use two browsers for watching videos and navigating the internet.

Any Ideas?

Also my Internet is not the problem, I have Gigabit Fiber.

For about a month how I find that the Firefox download list opens by itself multiple times during the day. Most of the time I'm not even actively using firefox, it's just idling in the background. When it first happened I figured it'd be a quickly patched bug and so didn't ask around about it. But I've had a ff update since then and it still happens. Does anyone know why this is happening? I have not seen reports of this via search.

I'm on ff 9.0.1.

I cannot send or forward emails. Get an error notice that says my message or carrier (Plateautel.net ) has timed out. If I perform task on the webmail. plateautel.net site it works but I prefer to use Thunderbird.

It has been nearly a week since downloading Thunderbird 102. Had to call Ionos server support representatives to try and fix problems and my many emails to Support at Thunderbird and there is still a problem. One would think putting a burden on providers is not a good idea.

There should be a way when Thunderbird issues 103 it is tested first on a community of people each having different server providers and their laptops to work things out.

New problem is trying to send an email. Yes, trying to send an email to my email address to myself showing current time so I know if sending is working and how long. Emails do not send. However if I go to my Android sending an email to my email address with message saying 6:30 it takes less than a second for email to arrive on this Windows 10. and encrypt is off.

Why is this happening?

Hi, i have few problems with TB, the issue is that is in the picture and also some times i receive duplicate email , if duplicate happens i need to delete message in my hosting company(through webmail client) after that i need to delete all duplicate emails, all duplicate emails are with attachments(different .doc, .pdf and etc.)the topology is: I`m in MS AD, and TB is installed on one machine and profile folders are in mapped network drive(TB folder in on shared folder/drive), account is POP3. Steps that i try to fix the problem: -deleting .msf files -deleting global-messages-db.sqlite -deleting popstate.dat -re adding account -compacting folder -repair folder - trying to use maildir as Store Type With all above try i was unable to fix the problems. The issue persist in random times. If i set limit "To save disk space, do not download:" and set it on some low number like 10000 kb, its start to work but larger messages cannot be downloaded. I don`t have any limits in shared drive and i have plenty is space and i don`t have any permission restrictions!

Can you gave me some hints or ideas to fix the issues?

I'm using Firefox 106.0.1 on Ubuntu 22.10 from Mozilla's official PPA but when I open some websites the browser crashes with the message "Exiting due to channel error.". I found the error could be related to libwebp with LTO enabled, may be it is, but I rebuilt the Ubuntu's package without LTO and one website stopped crashing, dell.com support page, but several others still crash, like amd.com.

I'm a long time user of Linux Mint. Now on 20.3 and Cinnamon desktop. Also a long time user of Thunderbird. Now in version 91.8.1 Always used the "allow insecure apps" in my gmail account settings and used normal password stored in Thunderbird. Google urges to change the authentication method to oAuth2. Tried everything to no avail. Always "authentication fails when connecting to imap.gmail.com" Cleared all cookies, allowed them, deleted all saved passwords, followed all published advise I could find, and nothing. Then I made a brand new profile pointing to an empty dir and entered my gmail address and checked everything. Same result. In despair I installed Evolution and all run fine at the first try. Should I really give up on Thunderbird? Thanks in advance for any help!

Hi after the automatic update to the latest Thunderbird, i restarted it and suddenly all email folder are gone. See screenshot. But if i got to account settings i can still see all my accounts folders. It seems everything is there but the app doesnt show it anymore. I also checked the folder /Users/tino/Library/Thunderbird/Profiles .. and it seems to have all the content

Is there anything i can do about it?

Thank you for you help!

I have noticed for awhile now that when I load my Firefox homepage its keeps taking longer, certainly longer than it used to take. Also, when I load a You-tube video it takes about a minute for things to work properly. The video and audio are erratic and skipping and simply disjointed for about the first minute, but then after that period of time the You-tube video runs OK, both audio and video. Something seems to be causing those problems recently that I didn't have previously. The problem seems to just keep getting worse also. I would appreciate any input and suggestions that may help the problem. Thank you.

I am trying to insert an image file into a signature but it appears as a blank box in messages.

I've looked at a number of responses to people with similar problems, and I've tried the File > New Message route but no luck.

The image file is stored locally, I have tried writing the signature text as HTML and inserting the code, and have also created an HTML file and tried that way. When that file opens in a browser, the graphic appears perfectly.

Hello all. Since the update to Version 113.0 I have been getting an error in my Event Viewer which is Event 2 Firefox Default Browser Agent . I am now on Version 113.0.1 and still get this error. Firefox is my default browser. Below is an image of what I see in my Event Viewer and also the full view of the event itself. I seem to not be having any problems with the browser but I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on why this is happening or forward to the Devs.

Respectfully, Don

West Virginia has a website to download old death certificates, but they wont load. There's nothing but a blank page. I'm not positive that it's a Firefox problem, as a friend of mine who uses IE cant load them either, however, she CAN load them on her Tablet. As a historian, I really need to get these records for my research, so I was wondering if someone could go to the site and see of the records appear for them to be downloaded. This is a direct link to one of the records:

link text

While this is the main page were you enter the name you are looking for: link text

If you discover anything, please let me know. Thanks!

I am unable to send any emails with attachments or embedded images via my gmail account. Error message:

Sending of the message failed. The message could not be sent because the connection to Outgoing server (SMTP) smtp.gmail.com timed out. Try again.

I am able to send simple text emails without any issues

I tried the suggestions listed here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1344851. Nothing helped. I can send simple text emails so I know my smtp settings are correct. I also have no issues downloading emails from the account.

Help!

TB 102.8.0.

Since December 2022, compacting is not working properly. I have set TB to ask me whether to compact when 100 MB would be saved. This has worked fine for years. Since December, I receive a pop-up advising that 237 MB or slightly more can be saved. After compacting, the message repeats every hour or two.

Compacting is actually, working except for the 237 MB chunk of data that either can't be compacted or doesn't really exist and fools TB into thinking compaction is needed. For example, if I set the compaction threshold to 500 MB then the mailbox will grow and I will eventually receive a reminder to compact when more than 500 MB can be saved. Compacting at that point does indeed shrink the mailbox. But, immediately thereafter, if I set the threshold back to 100 MB I get a message that 237 MB can be saved by compacting. Thus, the compact request repeats endlessly, all day long.

Technical details can be found here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1791354

I can't take it any more. Does anyone have a suggestion for forcing TB to re-examine or re-index my inbox in a manner that correctly determines its size and ends this nuisance?

Thanks.
