How can I restore Thunderbird settings and/or emails that were lost in the upgrade to version 128.2 (for Ubuntu)? Files for the previous version are still in the hidden .thunderbird folder on my hard disc, but the new version won't recognise them (even if I move them into the snap/thunderbird folder. I have an email backup, but version 128.2 doesn't seem to have a way to restore backed-up emails.

I'm running for quite a time Thunderbird on Windows up to Win11 without any problem. For about 3 years I'm using the same TB profile in dual boot environment with Linux Mint (v21 until last week and now version 22). I understood why I didn't get access from Linux side after the latest TB update in Windows as obviously the file structure and other things had changed to make it incompatible to elder versions.

However, as Linux is now my normal working environment, I've tried it again after upgraded my system to Linux Mint 22 Cinnamon 6.2.9 , kernel 6.8.0-44-generic and failed again, having the same error message when starting the profile: "Thunderbird is already running, but not responding. To use Thunderbird, you must first close the existing process, restart your device, ore use a different profile. "sudo killall Thunderbird" didn't find a running process.

I've tried importing everything in a new profile, which worked (more or less), but failed with all attempts getting access to my local profile. A local profile appears after importing but contains no data, trying to import its data separately doesn't trigger any error message when just ticking "E-Mail", but nothing is imported. When ticking "E-Mail" and "Settings", I'm getting a red alert that asks me to look into the error console which doesn't help either.

What can I do ????

just updated to 128.2.0esr, the custom userChrome.css is not applied anymore and I got back to see the ugly yellow warning instead of the muted grey one I overridden in the css, that always worked so nicely

@namespace html url("http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"); html|div.container.infobar[role="alert"] {

 background-color: grey !important;
 height: 20px;

}

was there a hidden update to how that file is handled?

(the about:config toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets is still set to true)

I’m using Firefox as the default browser on my iPad. The problem is that I can’t download any files I need like a pdf or docx. I can download it using safari or using the google doc app but it will not let me download it directly from my doc like I would on my PC even though I’m using the desktop version of the website.

Only way I can gain access is through my stand alone computer. I no longer have a hand-held computer. So can we work through our problem via my computer. Otherwise, I don't know what to do. Sorry for the trouble. My email address is rselfwoofus@yahoo.com Thanks for much for assist me with my problem. Richard

Update kills WebGL function... last time had to strip everything FireFox out of the registry, erase anything FireFox from anywhere, and do a clean download and installation... Auto Update came yesterday... problem again!!! WHY This is the second time this has occured.

I tried downloading Firefox again and I still can't open it. There must be something in my computer (Windows 11) that is stopping it from opening. It is the browser that I prefer. I have used it for many years and everything is on it. Please help.

I just updated my iMac from Mojave to Catalina 10.15.7. I thought Firefox would provide an update to convert the esr version to the standard Firefox browser since I am no longer using Mojave, but the next update is 115.15.0esr. Is that correct? My understanding is that the esr updates are just for computers using older operating systems through Mojave. I did not update to 115.15.0esr since I am not sure if that is the right version for Catalina. Any information and assistance you can provide me is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

HI! For the message "newer version of Thunderbird may have made changes to your profile", I was able to click on new profile & got all my email back (I think) but my folders under Local Folders are gone. Can I get them back?

The very informative page for this topic says that "You will not lose any personal data or customizations. Any previous profile data is saved and associated with the first Thunderbird installation that was opened after this change." Does that include Local Folders set up on the old version?

Thanks

Every day I get a pop up regarding a new update. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH .

HOW DO I STOP THIS PERMANENTLY AS I PREFER NOT TO GO BACK TO CHROME. IT SEEMS THAT YOU GET OFF BY SENDING OUT THESE UPDATE NOTICES, EVEN THOUGH I DO UP DATE JUST TO GET YOU OFF MY BACK!!

GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER

Hello, I've looked over many threads to try and find a solution to the problem. When I booted up the computer this morning I tried opening up Firefox, my daily driver, only to find that it won't open. I tried rebooting, I tried uninstalling Firefox and reinstalling, rebooting again, nothing works. I even went so far as to downloading a windows 10 reinstall program that runs of a USB. It's one that preserves your programs, but updates everything possible in windows. Now the computer is back up and Firefox comes up with the same error message.

What do I have to do to get Firefox working on my computer again????

Ever since the last two updates my saved cookies keep disappearing. It's a pain since I have to log in everywhere when it was automatic before.

I'm on an imac desktop computer with the latest firefox browser.

The latest update of Firefox for Android (130.0 (Build #2016041319)) removed the ability to swipe away the "Tab Closed Undo" bar that shows up when closing a tab.

If a user closes the last tab, a purple-ish bar appears at the bottom of the screen that reads "Tab Closed" on the left and "Undo" in a different font on the right. In previous versions of Firefox for Android a user could swipe away this bar to make it go away. In the current version that is no longer possible and I would really appreciate having that back.

(Honestly I would actually really appreciate never seeing the bar since I can access closed tabs via the History and I really dislike the bar.)

The last few days my computer has a long time connecting to the internet I saw a notification from Mozilla that they updated some type of program that might effect the connections that it might take longer to connect well it does and by the time it connects it say to long to connect so no connections at all before they did this upgrade or what ever my computer always connected johnny on the spot now it doesn't so the upgrade just don't work I think I saw something like a AI thing any ideas or what I am about ready to go to another browser program it's just not working for me I have windows 11.

Hi,

I just updated my firefox browser. And had numerous tabs that were still open. Usually when I have update it I go to history and click on recently closed windows/tabs and everything comes back on.

But this time, there's nothing there! I'm missing all of the windows/tabs that were opened before. I look in my history tab and there's nothing there either from the time the firefox was updated.

Before Firefox had something called restore previous session. And that's not there either.

Can you please help me get my old tabs/windows opened again? Please
