The other day I accidentally pressed a keystroke that changed a Firefox setting, and now it thinks I'm on a mobile device/displays sites in mobile view where possible by default. This has persisted despite restarts of the browser and the computer and has been happening since Sunday (Australian time). I've tried opening the Responsive Design dev tool and I've sent screenshots to a techsavvy friend (I'm totally blind and use a screen-reader, so couldn't tell this was happening until I tried to use a site that had a radically different layout in mobile view), and aside from not seeing an exit button or a switch to change device mode, he couldn't tell what was going on.

I'm stuck and need help! I would like to unmobile my Firefox!

Hello,

I've been looking for a way to disable the column resizing when resizing the window. I would much prefer the Message Pane to resize instead of the Message List.

Current situation:

- Set to Vertical Layout: Message List is on the left of the Message Pane.
- Resize TB's window: the last column of the Message List grows to compensate the extra space and all columns shrink if window size is reduced beyond a certain threshold.

Preferred situation:

- Resizing the TB's window changes the Message Pane size and does not affect the Message List columns.

I am constantly constantly adjusting column sizes to compensate when I connect to an external screen or when maximizing TB. I can't find a preference to change this behavior. Fixing the Message List columns sizes and adjusting the Message Pane size would be much better and more natural. If I compare to browsers, toolbars and sidebars are always fixed size while the webpage adjusts to the new window size, especially when changing screens. The same should be possible in TB.

The topic that best describes my question is not in the list :-(

I got the dreaded email saying outlook 2007 will stop working in september 2024 but am very confused.

Bit of background, we run a small family partnership and have 20 years of archive .pst files. We use outlook 2007 to store our customers details in the address book along with their order details, customer number etc. Plus we use the calendar for important dates like tax and when to pay suppliers.

We have our own domains (9 in total with several email address for each - about 30 email addresses) which we download the emails from into outlook 2007 so we can store those emails and orders in the .pst file and easily find them again plus archive them each year. Outlook gives us the choice of if the emails should be removed from the server or not - some we do and some we don't for various reasons.

I have downloaded thunderbird as that is what was suggested as a replacement. Tried importing, some things came across and some didn't. Some emails, except those in the sent folder, came across. None of the accounts came across nor the address book. The folder tree was very odd too as all folders were under a folder called "outlook import". I had added my hotmail address when i first opened thunderbird and then added one of our domains emails manually, it showed all the folders in that domain email, that is not really want i wanted, i just want to download the emails in the inbox of our email address. Then i would move it to where it needed to be - orders, customer questions, suppliers emails etc.

I then saw in the help files that i should use the 31 version then upgrade after importing, so i started again.

I started with the address book as that is very important as i have 31k in there. Very little info came across, some were missing names, some missing customer numbers, and it is very difficult to get to the "other" field which contains all their order numbers. With outlook all of that is there when you open a contact AND when you view as a list.

So my questions to start with are .....

1. Which version of thunderbird should i be using to import outlook 2007?

2. How do i get all the contact info over?

3. How can i make the address book interface more user friendly?

4. Is outlook 2007 actually going to stop working for how we work or have i been misled?

Hope someone can help or point me in the direct of other help available. I have already read a lot of the help files, questions and answers and felt so confused i thought i would just ask :-)

Starting with version 126.0.0, firefox for MacOS stopped creating a defaults/pref folder during installation. If you create it yourself and add the autoconfig.js there, and add firefox.cfg to the root, firefox reads them perfectly and applies the settings. However, if you create folders before the first launch of the browser after installation, the file integrity check fails (see screenshot).

I couldn't find any information about why the folders stopped being created. Maybe someone knows?

The newest article regarding the configuration seems to be this one:

Hi! I recently migrated from Chrome to Firefox and everything is OK except for homepage shortcut icons. They load when I open the sites again but dissappear again after a day or two. Is there anyway to fix this? Thanks a lot

In the Thunderbird calendar, I'm trying to create a repeating event that occurs on the fourth Wednesday from Sep 25, 2024 through Jan 22, 2025.

But each time I try to set it up, using Jan 22 as the end date, Thunderbird changes the end date to Jan 21 and so the last event does not get created. I've tried several times and this keeps happening.

What's going on?

I use multiple dialing apps in my business. When I choose a specific app, it opens in the same window as my source data for the call. I have recently began using a new computer. In my previous computer the dialing app I chose opened in a new tab. Please help.

Hi, I want to disable the "Thought-provoking stories" shortcuts from the home / new tab page on Android.

Following the other forum posts and https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/hide-pocket-recommendations-firefox there should be a switch for "Thought-provoking stories" under Settings - Homepage - Shortcuts, but I don't see it. What can I do? Thank you for your help.

Hi there

My accent colour for my PC is a kind of lime green which I like. The blue of Mozilla Thunderbird worked really well with that green. The recent update has changed the colour of Thunderbird to a bright lime green which I really don't like. Is there anyway of keeping my PC accent colour whilst reverting Thunderbird to it's traditional blue colour please?

Kind regards Paul

Not long ago all my search queries starting showing up in French instead of my default language English.

Every time I click Change to English I get taken to Google's Search Settings with NO indication where to make English the Default language. When I click Parametre de langue I am taken to the Google Search Settings - Language and region. Here I change Language of display to English...., but when I close the window and start up again it jumps right back to French.

It's driving me nuts!

Hope someone can assist me :-)

First I'm living in Munich (Germany) and my English - how to say it - could be better. Therefore forgive my mistakes.

I installed Thunderbird 128.2.0esr (64 bit, German language) on Windows 10 to check it out as an alternative to MS Outlook. So far I like what I see and I will probably switch.

One small thing is the column picker button on the right side of the message list pane. I assume - after setting up Thunderbird - it will be rarely used - there is also the alternative by using the right mouse button on any of the columns - but it takes column space. Is it possible to hide/remove the column picker?

In my humble opinion above - next to "display options for message list pane" - would be a better place.

Thank you very much, Reinhard

All of a sudden, my extensions icons, site icons and some images in every page are very very dark or pitch black. I haven't change anything in themes other than changing the theme of the browser after installing it.

In the attached images, you can see how the Mozilla site icon is rendered by Firefox Stable, Firefox Nightly in Recovery Mode without my account being signed in and Google Chrome. The other screenshot is the extension toolbar with extension icons being rendered all black instead of their true color.

I have used Thunderbird as my preferred mail client for many years. Recent upgrade to Kubuntu 24.04 from 22.04.4 seems to have changed storage options. Thunderbird 128.1.0esr(64bit)

I store my mail on my local server so that I can access it from a number of different computers on the same network. If I set the Local Directory to that network folder it is changed to /run/user/1000/doc/5f5f8977/mail.xxxxxx.com and the mail is imported to my local disk in that folder.

However, when I restart the computer I have to set up the network folder again each time.

I have never had this problem before. How do I set the Local Directory permanently to the network server address? Thanks Bob

I have always been able to save my bookmarks to a folder called "Other Bookmarks". I can't remember if I created it, or it was there. Until this last update (130.0), this folder was my default folder, and all the bookmarks were saved there automatically. Now, for some reason, all of my bookmarks are being saved to the Bookmarks Toolbar, which I don't want to happen. I've tried setting the default back to the "Other Bookmarks", but for some reason, nothing works. I've tried 3 different ways of doing it. This only started to happen after FF automatically updated. Any help would be appreciated.

(Just upgraded to 128.2 64 bit - but I can't find the selection screen shown on https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/unified-toolbar.

I want to have a clickable shortcut to Next Message. Why? Because as I'm reading and reply to some of the messages, I have the mouse in my hand. It's a pain to switch to the keyboard to hit N or F. And I always forget the letter to go to the previous message.

Also -- after I delete a message that I just read from the trashcan icon, despite having more messages to read, even in a thread, the view goes back to the Inbox. I'd want to see the next email, not the list. For all its advanced features, this seems to be basic email reading. Maybe I missed an option?

Hi - How can I turn on light mode manually in Thunderbird without changing theme, or within a dark theme? Also, how to turn the them back to default if I want. Thankx!
