I have come across an issue when replacing hyperlinks in emails.

The scenario is: I have an email that I have sent that includes a link (a zoom meeting).

I wish to send a similar email so I go to my sent items, find the previous sent email, and highlight, copy and paste the contents of the email that was sent to a new composed email.

I then copy the new link, highlight the existing link and paste the new link in its place.

I then confirm that I have the correct new link showing - I can see the meeting number within the link and it matches the new link.

However after sending the email, it is then converted to a hyperlink, and when hovering the mouse over the link, it shows the destination as the previous link that has been deleted.

This only appears to affect the html version of the email, so the plain text part is still correct.

Understandably, the problem isn't immediately noticeable as the link still looks correct, and it is only when clicking or hovering over the link that the discrepancy is evident.

I realise (now I am aware of the issue) this can be resolved by deleting the previous link first, then pasting the new link separately, but it would be helpful to know if there is a way to prevent this happening in the first place as it means having to remember that Thunderbird is quirky with swapping links.

My Firefox browser is somehow corrupted with foreign language features. See in the picture that much of the text is in English - the selected and preferred language. It is what the Settings are set to. But notice that bits and pieces are in some other language. I recently made a trip to Spain and used translation features while there - but those was all reset to English. I've gone into Troubleshooting mode; I've restarted; I've reset and restarted. But I can't seem to get rid of the gibberish. WTH!!!! All copies of Firefox, on all owned Mac machines (i-Phone; Mac Mini; I-Mac Pro; I pads) are set to English. About the only thing I haven't done it uninstall and reinstall Firefox. Thanks for any help you can offer.

Please can you explain/offer advice as to why I can still receive email maessages on my mobile phone as they arrive/are sent but since 1st May, no messages have been received on my main computer inbox on the main Thunderbird in letters inbox. until that time, it had been working normally. I live in Gloucester GL4 3QS thankyou Chris Newman

There is always a discrepancy between the number of emails I am receiving vs. what I actually receive. For example, Thunderbird will say "receiving 4 emails", but only 2 will show up in my inbox. The number I receive is always less than the number that Thunderbird claims it is processing. Sometimes I will receive none, even though Thunderbird says I am receiving 5 emails, etc.

I do not have a JUNK/SPAM file where things might be moving to, there is just no record of these missing emails.

I have firefox updates set to auto. But I want them to load updates when im not using the browser. What currently happens is I open the browser only to get shanghaid by the update process. I dont want that. when I open the browser I want to go straight to what i am doing. I dont want to have to sit there and wait while the browser updates. If it did updates once a month or less it wouldnt be such an issue but the damn browser is updating every few days or even every day and it always wants to do it when I want to do my own work. IS there not a way for the browser to update while im asleep at 3 am? When Im not wanting to use it. Its so irritating. It causes me to not bother with updates. I dont want to comply. When IM given a choice for any updating I set updates to install in the early hours when Im not inconvenienced by it. How can I do this with firefox?

Hey all!

I recently migrated my hosting and I deleted the accounts on my Thunderbird client to set the new ones with the correct new Hosting.

The accounts are working correctly, but everytime I open Thunderbird, it shows me a login request from the old hosting service (which by the way, there is nothing there anymore, i deleted all the accounts and data).

I already uninstalled and reinstalled mozilla and tried to "fresh start" again, but this problem doesn't seem to go away.

Help is much appreciated!

I cannot open any Games on the NY TImes site with FIrefox for the past month; no problem with Chrome. Today, two article links opened but then the page went blank (repeatedly), while other links worked fine. Again, no problem with Chrome. My wife can't get into proxyvote.com with Firefox--again, a blank screen. Where is this weirdness coming from?

My yahoo homepage on firefox looks totally different than it did last week. Chrome and edge still look like the home page should but firefox does not. I screen shared with yahoo and they said it was a firefox issue. Anyone know how to make the homepage look like chromes and edge? I added pics from edge and firefox for comparison.

Howdy,

Workflow: I have a firefox instance already running. I want to launch a new firefox in safe-mode to test something without disrupting my existing firefox.

Problem: I try to launch a new firefox in safe mode using `firefox --safe-mode`, but firefox just opens a new window NOT in safe mode.

I think it may because firefox in safe-mode requires launching launching from a new instance rather than attaching to existing instance.

`firefox --help` shows a flag I can use:

--new-instance Open new instance, not a new window in running instance. --safe-mode Disables extensions and themes for this session.

So I run `firefox --safe-mode --new-instance`

now I get error popup with message:

"Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To use Firefox, you must first close the existing Firefox process, restart your device, or use a different profile."

Now I think what is the point of the flag "new-instance" if Firefox doesn't support multiple instances?

Regardless, how can I launch firefox in safe-mode without disrupting my existing firefox instance and without relying on creating a profile just for this?

Firefox sometimes continuously adds tabs for the same site I am using. Every time I X out of one, another one pops up. This multiplies alarmingly fast. I have Windows 10.

Hi I am a longtime user of your browser. I have version 124.0.2(64 bit) installed on three devices. First thing I do on opening it is to click on "about", which normally updates the browser, before I do any browsing. In the last three weeks, however, it has not updated on any of the three devices, rather, it says "Failed to check for updates". I have tried the workarounds suggested at your Help center, and nothing has worked. What gives, may I ask? Thank you
