I have a small problem when saving screenshots from google AI. Almost all of the screen I rectangle is saved, but the small section which normally is printed out below the "discussion" with the AI and the enter text field suddenly appears over the other text, up circa a page and a half up from the bottom. I hope this explanation makes sense.

I receive various emails that often contain links to articles and other websites. Although none have ever been troublesome, Firefox is now preventing me from viewing them "for my own safety". How do I go back to simply viewing the stuff I'm reading about in my email?

Hi.

Just had a not requested update to 153 esr, which in itself is generally fine, with a small exception.

The windows min, max and close buttons all come up with a code.

Probably just some weird setup I have but any ideas will be welcome.

I use userChrome.css to give a background colour, so maybe the ID of each has changes for any css

  1. titlebar-min{height:1.66em; background:#00b !important}
  2. titlebar-max{height:1.66em; background:#090 !important}
  3. titlebar-close{height:1.66em; background:#d00 !important}

but I don't see how that would effect the actual bare icon

Thank you

So, I recently got rid of Spectrum as my internet & email provider. I have used the Archive function to archive all the emails from that account but still need to be able to access them after I remove the spectrum email account from Thunderbird. Does Archiving the emails keep them accessible or do I need to so something else. Further info, all of my emails are downloaded to thunderbird and not kept on the server, so they are physically on my computer inside thunderbird program

After fixing the view problem of my email in Thunderbird (thanks for the F8 tip!), my email stopped downloading. I have no "prompt for password" checked. There isn't a primary password checked. I've confirmed the pop outgoing email is correct with the email provider (google). I can get into it without any issues and see my emails there.

I've re-entered the password for the pop outgoing email to no avail.

Thunderbird e-mails receive OK, but won't send

I have used Thunderbird on a MacBook Pro Max M4 for a while now. It worked fine until starting last Monday. Ever since then, I have to go to 1&1/IONOS e-mail on the web to send e-mails or use my iPhone and blind copy myself. It’s a pain going back and forth.

1&1/IONOS tech support helped me make sure all settings for the outgoing server (smtp) were and are correct. Tests on both incoming and outgoing ports are successful in the Thunderbird settings, so I don't understand why my e-mails are not sending. I have no problem receiving e-mails on Thunderbird. This problem on outgoing e-mails applies to both text-only e-mails and e-mails with attachments. Screenshots are attached.

There is 17.9GB worth of data. Do I perhaps need to delete some of it? I archive old e-mails offline once a year, generally in January for the previous calendar year.

Thanks, Tim

I have an email address and I want to migrate those emails to a gmail address. The problem is that I have around 2300 emails. I'm copying about 200 emails to the gmail address. The problem is that is taking too long and it's not copying all of them.

What if I copy all of emails wait to sycronize it and then copy it again? It will work? Or is there another way to do that?

Weird issue where entire Firefox window flashes grey with a blue box on it

It seems to be related to video playback but not sure. It was happening while a video was playing full screen, and also after stopping playing/hiding a non-full-screen video.

To catch the issue had to screen record at 240fps. I used Nvidia Overlay to record the issue, but was happening before the overlay was even enabled.

Disabled all addons, made no difference. HW acceleration on or off, still happened.


I tried turning on logs, and this always seemed to show up with the flash: ``` 2026-08-09 06:19:44.048000 UTC - [Parent 8388: Main Thread]: D/Widget GetWorkspaceId - calling AsyncUpdateWorkspaceID() 2026-08-09 06:19:44.048000 UTC - [Parent 8388: BackgroundThreadPool #276]: D/Widget calling GetWindowDesktopId 2026-08-09 06:19:44.048000 UTC - [Parent 8388: Main Thread]: D/Widget GetWorkspaceId - calling AsyncUpdateWorkspaceID() 2026-08-09 06:19:44.048000 UTC - [Parent 8388: Main Thread]: D/Widget GetWorkspaceId - calling AsyncUpdateWorkspaceID() 2026-08-09 06:19:44.048000 UTC - [Parent 8388: BackgroundThreadPool #276]: D/Widget called GetWindowDesktopId, hr=00000000 2026-08-09 06:19:44.048000 UTC - [Parent 8388: BackgroundThreadPool #276]: D/Widget calling GetWindowDesktopId 2026-08-09 06:19:44.048000 UTC - [Parent 8388: BackgroundThreadPool #276]: D/Widget called GetWindowDesktopId, hr=00000000 2026-08-09 06:19:44.048000 UTC - [Parent 8388: BackgroundThreadPool #276]: D/Widget calling GetWindowDesktopId 2026-08-09 06:19:44.048000 UTC - [Parent 8388: BackgroundThreadPool #276]: D/Widget called GetWindowDesktopId, hr=00000000 ```

I have three email groups on Comcast.net. To view the members of these groups when using Foxfire, I have to put them into the addressee box. However, if I use MS Edge, I have no trouble viewing them by opening the group using the usual prompt. This has been going on for a long time. I am running Windows 11, but don't know the version of Firefox, just that it has been updated several times since the problem began.
