This is absolutely insane. I set up a email account(also did about a year ago) and I can not get back to my mail. Why in gods name is it so difficult? I have multiple email accounts with most all the major email websites and this one is utterly impossible to use. I just keep ending up in the same spot with no information to help get out of the endless circle. I don't even know if I could find my way back to here. I will give you my email address to try and get something more constructive than the past two days. I want to make mozilla products my main users for all my different platforms to simplify my life but I am having my doubts about thunderbird. So far it is a useless time waster. I'm shocked that this is under the Mozilla name. I normally associate Mozilla with high quality, easy to use products. My goal is to have all the phones, tablets,laptops, and desktops operating on linux and mozilla. Thank you in advance. X@yahoo.com

Description of the issue: I am experiencing an issue where I cannot paste images from my system clipboard into the chat box of Doubao (a web-based AI chatbot: doubao.com).

Steps to reproduce:

   Copy an image to the clipboard.
   Open doubao.com in Firefox.
   Click on the chat input box and press Ctrl + V (or right-click and Paste).

Expected result: The image should be pasted into the chat box and ready to be sent.

Actual result: Nothing happens. The image is not pasted.

Other than being slow to download my emails now for a few months, TB was performing well until a week or so ago. Now it also won't open the downloaded email when I click on it and the TB freezes up so I can't close it out. I have tried restarting computer multiple times and it works for one or two emails that I can open and then starts freezing up again. Makes using it almost impossible. I have security Windows 11 Defender only and have had it the entire time when it also worked well.

Running Windows 11 x-64. Mozilla Firefox splash screen does not load. Even after one hour, I can still see twelve, blank "boxes". There is a continuous, left-to-right, vertical, "windscreen-wiper-like" movement within each of the twelve boxes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Mozilla Firefox, including a standalone installation. Sadly: this has not changed matters. Please see attached screenshot. Regards and thanks.

I'm using Thunderbird from a little time anmd I have a problem with "Unified Folders" After installing it, I added my 10 accounts one by one and found out a problem. Simply Thunderbird doesn't want more than 1 "yahoo" account. I can enter even 15 accounts and Thunderbird can manage all the accounts with "Unified Folders" without problems and I see all the accounts. But if I were to add another "yahoo" account, Thunderbird no longer handles it with "Unified Folders". In fact it disappears and I only see it again if I activate "All Folders". I can't understand why. Maybe I need to setup something on yahoo? Can I solve this problem? Thanks PS: I speak italian.

Firefox keeps telling me about a VPN, but I cannot find this or any way to use which corresponds to what I see on the screen. Help says "sign in with a Mozilla account", but I don't know what this means. Sign into what? Looking at the Mozilla site there is no way to register or create an account or tell if I already have one. I've signed up to emails etc but find no difference when I use Firefox. It qualifies - verions and UK - what am I missing?

So i have freshly installed firefox, every time i look up something on google i don't get any AI overviews, but when i use google in a private window google's ai overview works in there. what is going on? (keep in mind i have ublock origin activated on both windows but the ai only works in private mode where im not signed in)

Firefox deleted older open tabs on my samsung phoone and my ipad. This was really gutting as these were open for a reason. I was not logged into either instance as I wanted to preserve my privacy as best as possible.

As the topic says, the message list turned from the usual dark-mode look, to a full black background after updating to 151.0.

Was this an intentional change? How can I revert it?

I'm a bit puzzled here. Initially, I tried to use the new built-in VPN for only a single domain. That doesn't work at all. Until it does, I tried to get it through other ways. Containers don't work, private windows neither, they both just inherit the global VPN setting.

So I moved on to profiles. The web found me a Mozilla support topic that suggested to open about:profiles and create a new one. Did that, opened a window for it, but couldn't get it to reopen on any easy path, just through opening about:profiles and clicking one of the many buttons again.

Then I found another description that used the "Profiles" menu. Never seen that before (probably because the menu bar isn't visible by default). Created a new profile there, too, and opened it. After restarting Firefox, all was gone! My original profile with everything was totally inaccessible, like a full data loss. Google search AI in a Chrome browser helped me out and explained what I need to do (in about:profiles, select the old one as default, then restart) to get my environment back. After that I deleted all newly created profiles and then their directories again.

Started over with a new "new" profile and continued there. Now I wanted to activate the VPN in there. It asked me to log in again, which was a good sign because finally I got a Firefox window that didn't know about the other window. But then the next failure: I couldn't log in with my credentials because that profile was already used in the other window/profile. Again, they're not completely separated from each other and there's some hidden link between them.

So, do I need a new Firefox/Mozilla account only for a separate Firefox profile? I can happily use my one account on different devices but not on the same device? Can I unlink the main profile from my account again? I don't see a logout button anywhere, I'm just logged in invisibly.

I'm suppose to see a sparkle button, and I recall having seen it on my desktop, but it's disappeared. I do have accounts with both Anthropic and ChatGAPT, I'd like to access them from the side bar, not a tab. How do I get that sparkle button back?

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2030039 Steps to reproduce:

   Open Firefox
   Enable Firefox VPN
   Go to VPN settings
   Try to add a domain to the exclusion list
   Attempt to use a wildcard (e.g., *.ru) or a regex pattern

Actual results:

The VPN only accepts exact domain names. Wildcards and regular expressions are not supported.

Expected results:

It should be possible to:

   Use wildcard patterns (e.g., *.ru) or regular expressions to exclude groups of domains
   Define more specific rules that override general patterns (e.g., exclude *.ru but allow a specific domain within that zone)

This would provide more flexible and practical control over VPN routing.

I am unable to turn VPN on or select a location. This appears to have started after the latest Foxfire update. Are there any steps I can take to correct this issue?

Since a long Time i see Advertisements with Mozilla VPN for free. For shure not a real VPN but ... all Sites that i open with Mozilla should be bether protected. I never found this option and i think its again for "selected" Users. So i am not good enough ?

I was logged out on my iphone's mozilla vpn, and when I tried to log back in, it requests a confirmation code that it never sends out. I tried to log in to my firefox account on my desktop as well, and it behaves the same. I never receive an email with a confirmation code.

When I start VPN, it brings me to a page to choose a subscription, but I have a yearly subscription paid in November 2025. Then my Mozilla account says I am logged on but when I click on the application icon I get a circular icon in the window with a cancel button underneath it. See attachment.
