Apple ID and password are saved in Thunderbird but every time I open Thunderbird it now askd for apple ID & password. Was working OK originally about 3 months ago but itn the last 2-3 weeks has started to ask for this info, If I type it in with my apple ID and the apple specific password then the calendar opens. It I say save password the next time I open Thunderbird it asks for Apple ID and password. and so on and so on.....

I am using TB 140.9.0esr (64-bit) on Kubuntu 25.10 but this has been true for some years. Mostly when a start a new Email address whether in the To:, cc: or bcc: fields TB does a very good guess after a few letters about the address I want. However, every so often, perhaps 5% of the time it will pick the correct person but I won't notice that it has picked an old address for that person. It seems to happen in bursts, so three times in the last few hours for two different addressees. I realise that I could shift the old addresses for people to the notes section of the address book but I would rather not as I am hoping that one day TB will have the ability to search for all Emails to/from someone across all the addresses they ever had, current or deceased. Is there a way you can stop TB suddenly changing its guesses about the addresses for a person? Or could you add a way to tell TB in the address book that addresses are dead and should never be offered as addresses to send to?

TIA,

Chris

Firefox149开始，网页看抖音，每滑到下一条就卡顿2，3秒，换回148及之前的版本就没这问题 Starting from Firefox 149, when watching Tiktok videos on the web, there is a lag of 2-3 seconds every time I swipe to the next item. Switching back to versions 148 and earlier does not have this issue， https://www.douyin.com/

Someone seems to have messed with the search tab. For better or worse, I use Google most of the time, The search tab used to default to Google. If I occasionally want a different search tool, e.g. Wikipedia, I would use the dropdown list. Now it seems to default to the last used search tool. How can I get rid of this "improvement"?

It seems that most times Firefox does an update, it deletes the Amazon UK search tool and does not provide any option to put it (or any Amazon tool) back. Where is it on the list of search tools?

Previously when installing Firefox, it used to create desktop shortcut for All users: C:\Users\Public\Desktop

Now it creates in user profile: C:\Users\UserName\Desktop

I think the first option was better for systems that have multiple user profiles.

i was using facebook until about 4 weeks ago. somehow it changed languages and while i was trying to put it back to english i was locked out.

this is part of the message i get

Firefox detected a potential security threat and did not continue to www.facebook.com because this website requires a secure connection.

www.facebook.com has a security policy called HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS), which means that Firefox can only connect to it securely. You can’t add an exception to visit this site.

The issue is most likely with the website, and there is nothing you can do to resolve it.

I downloaded Thunderbird to my new machine, followed instructions to copy the Profile Folder from the old machine and pasted to the new machine. I didn't get a message asking whether I wanted to replace the data on the new machine. When I started Thunderbird, I am not seeing all the data I expected - no address book, only 200+ emails, no sent emails. What did I do wrong?

Recently switched ISPs to a fiber internet company. After the switch, now whenever I try access my comcast email tunderbird gives me a message that my IP is temporarily blacklisted. I get two messages. One is a windows notification that says the blacklisted message, and then a popup message from tunderbird that it cannot log in. I have contacted my ISP to ask them what's up with the blacklist, but what's weird is that I can seem to access these accounts fine through Outlook, which would seem to indicate that there is some issue with tunderbird. I'd really rather use tunderbird than outlook. Can somebody help me with this?

The few articles I could find on this all suggest changing the IPv6 setting but I checked that and it is already set to what they suggest.

I tried deleting the account and recreating it in tunderbird, but it won't go through it says it can't log into the account.

I installed Mozilla Firefox on my phone, but I cannot log in or create a new account. When I try to sign up or log in, it does not work properly. Please help me fix this issue.

Example email attached. Mozilla support emails say requests are coming from a windows 10 device but I am on 11. Is this a sign that something is wrong with my account or just a typo?

I was going through my account settings today and noticed that two factor was disabled. I thought this odd as I usually set it up on any account I use, so I of course turned it on and went about linking my authenticator app and generating account recovery codes. Yet in my authenticator app there was already a Mozilla account with my email, but the codes it supplied did not work. I also found old account recovery codes I had written down which did not work either.

What could have happened to cause this? I must have had two factor on sometime in the past and added it to my app and generated recovery codes. How could it have been disabled, the old codes made invalid, and Microsoft authenticator unlinked? Am I looking at an account breach somehow? I have no unusual activity as far as I can tell and no recent data or password breaches. The only thing I can think of was I removed a number of old devices from my account and signed out of them, but I still own the old PC's so no one could be using them.

My user experience on Firefox is being severely impacted and is making me angry. I watch the updates calendar they are once a month. So why can i not go a whole week it seems with a necessary Firefox update to my browser that impacts the performance of websites. I like to have multiple tabs open over a week or more. I don't want to close and reopen my tabs every time I want to use my computer. SO WHY are there SO many updates. It's seriously making me want to uninstall your browser and I have been using Firefox on multiple devices for years. More than 20 years now. It's seriously ridiculous to have a major update every week or even every other week where I have to shut down and save my work on ALL of my tabs just to update Firefox. I have never remember history and I am going to uninstall and reinstall from even greater security because I have serious concerns about the amount of data that big tech companies share with 3rd Parties and the government. I am an honest American citizen and I HATE being surveilled and having my private life sold to the highest bidder. But even though. the safety of your browser is a positive feature it becomes very difficult to WANT to use Firefox when my workflow is CONSTANTLY interrupted.

Seriously, You JUST updated on the 23rd/24th and now just two weeks later there's already ANOTHER update. And who even knows when that one dropped. I only checked it because sites were acting up. And EVERY TIME a site acts up it's because of an update. You have interfered with my user experience with Youtube, and Multiple Streaming Services, and Multiple Chat bots. It's thoroughly dis-satisfactory and disruptive, and ANNOYING. I want a tool that protects me while I am on the web. I do NOT want a tool that ruins my internet experience every week.

When trying to add my Outlook account, I am stuck at the authentication step. The webpage doesn't work. The screen recording I've attached is what happens on the second time and later; the first time it shows a different page (saying "The app named Thunderbird will be granted these permissions [... a list of permissions]; allow?" and I clicked "Allow") but it doesn't work either.

There is a "在 浏览器 浏览器中打开" option ("Open in browser browser" haha; it refers to Xiaomi system browser") but it opens a "Cannot find this page" error page. The "在 Edge 中运行" ("Run in Edge") button is unclickable.

Translation of the screen recording: Trying to log in to Thunderbird Android? Only continue if downloaded the app from trusted app store or website. [Cancel/Continue]
