hi

i cant beleive it mozilla has such [edited] sustomr service that dont help at all total waste of time going through all the faqs and no human to talk to. mozilla needs to improve customer service help section.

1. I want that messages open when I click ONCE. Right now I have to double click which is a huge showstopper for folks who really need to work. Click once > email you want to read opens. That is fast, productive and accessible. Double click is a no-option. 2. I would want the layout exactly as in the advertised app on https://www.thunderbird.net/en-GB/ where we can clearly see three columns: Accounts | Messages LIST | Single Message. Instead, in my case, I can only open the message in new window, or new tab, which is again totally unproductive, and inaccessible.

How can I achieve the two goals please? Here is a screenshot from the advertisement as of how it should look, and as well one of how it actually looks on my machine

Thank you!

Please 🙏 I am tired of the same thing nothing changes I will get control over my podcast and Cash app pay pal and they take it right back I truly know who's doing this where do I start

I have TBird version: 128.6.1 esr (64 bit).

I have several accounts and I want to back up just one of them. However, they all use the same folder (.../.thunderbird/<name>.default) for storage so Export only wants to store this folder. Drilling down using "Browse", I see that below that are all the folders stored as ".../.thunderbird/<name>.default/Mail/<My account>". If I just copy this folder, can I restore this account in the future if I copy it back to this location? I want to retain the contents as the account is going to be closed and removed from its server. Thank you.

I'm currently using FF 134.0.2 on a Mac running Sonoma 14.6.1. I'm unable to use the Find shortcut (⌘ + f), but I am able to use other shortcuts in Sheets: ⌘ + c, ⌘ + v, ⌘ + Option + m. That shortcut operates as expected on other sites, opening the Find pop-up at the bottom of the browser. It's not working within Sheets to search a spreadsheet or at the browser-level when on a Sheets tab.

Any idea why that one shortcut isn't working?

I am on v130 of Firefox and on some websites it just freezes. I cannot tab across. Even if i refresh nothing. But when i use Chomer all working fine. Read some things on how to correct this but does not work. Any advise?

Hi,

Today I got some problems with thunderbird. At first, when opening the program, it opens a new message that mentions "Provider for CalDAV & CardDAV: It's time to go" The message is not complete and has some drawing background I could initially still look at my mails but then tried to remove that mail and then the rogram crashed. I tried going into the accounts setting to update and that would also lead to crashing. I tried to set the troubleshoot mode off but it would crash before I can click to turn it off.

Any assistance would be great I use windows 11, 64 bits the thunderbird version is 128.5.2esr (32 bits)

Thanks a lot!

Vincent

The pc is a new Dell 8960 running windows 11 home. I installed t-bird from the microsoft store ver 128.5.2. I needed to do a system restore and when it was done Thunderbird.exe was gone. The link that I used to open it went to c:\users\username\thunderbird.exe but there was nothing there named Thunderbird after the restore.

I found Thunderbird at "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\MozillaThunderbird.MZLA_128.5.2.0_x64__h5892qc0xkpca\VFS|ProgramFiles\MZLA Package Root\Thunderbird.exe" I made a shortcut to that but the response is "Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. you may not have the appropriate permission to access the item."

I do have a current copy of the profile.

When I press a hotkey that involves Ctrl (ie. opening a new Tab via Ctrl+T or closing one via Ctrl+W) Ctrl sometimes remains stuck until I press it again. This will cause issues ie. when I open a new tab and try to type a new address (or search term), and Ctrl causes new hotkeys to be executed.

I've even tried launching firefox with a new profile, and on safe mode (firefox --safe-mode -p <something-else-than-usual>), so no bookmarks, cookies or extensions should be causing this, and it will still happen sometimes. The annoying part is that this seems to be an issue with performance. It happens less-often with the empty profile and safe mode, but it still happens, especially if I had just opened a new page some tab, causing the most minute thing for firefox to process.

The problem is probably not the computer specs either (below my specs). Indeed, from what I can tell, firefox does not even seem to function particularily slow in any case. Just this ctrl being stuck seems to happen.

I have also tried disabling hardware-acceleration (and explicitly enabling it), no effect.

Other interesting facts I've discovered: - This for sure does not happen in other programs and - This does not happen with the Ctrl for all the keybinds within firefox. For example, Ctrl+A (for select all) does not trigger this

From neofetch my setup is OS: Arch Linux x86_64 Host: MS-7C56 1.0 Kernel: 6.12.8-arch1-1 Uptime: 2 hours, 10 mins Packages: 2370 (pacman), 7 (flatpak) Shell: zsh 5.9 Resolution: 3840x2160 DE: labwc:wlroots WM: sway Terminal: alacritty CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5900X (24) @ 4.951GHz GPU: AMD ATI Radeon RX 7900 XT/7900 XTX/7900 GRE/7900M Memory: 5531MiB / 32015MiB

(I have no idea why it's reporting that I'm using Sway, I'm most certainly only using labwc, maybe labwc just reports sway for some programs for compatibility) I've installed firefox from pacman, and my current version is firefox 134.0.1-1

And finally firefox --full-version Mozilla Firefox 134.0.1 20250113214611 20250113214611

I'm not sure what else I could share at this point

I've noticed that whenever I press ⌥⇧Space (option-shift-spacebar) in Firefox Developer Edition, it causes the page to refresh.

This behaviour seems to be consistent across devices.

Is there a way to change/disable this behaviour? It is very inconvenient, as it often causes me to accidentally trigger a page refresh when I type an em dash (`—`) in a text input (opt-shift-dash, and then type a space character after it, I'm very likely to hit opt-shift-space by mistake 🙈).

The keyboard shortcut L of "copy link" in right menu over a link is inconvenient for most right-handed people. I want it back to old keyboard shortcut A.

After new version 134 update, the shortcut L to A is not working again.

I posted 2 links in 2023 and 2021, but they are not working now. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1333526 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1433785

Could you please fix this bug?

Thank you so much! Brian

HI I have the latest Thunderbird installed on my Redmi Note 8 Pro (Android 11). When I try to write an email and add an attachment (e.g., a photo), the system file manager opens. After selecting the file, it doesn't appear in Thunderbird. Sharing a file from the file manager via Thunderbird results in the same issue. Only when sharing a file through the system Gallery app to Thunderbird can I attach and send it successfully. In the permissions settings for Thunderbird, I only see options for Camera and Contacts. There is no option for Files and Media. I couldn't find a solution to this problem anywhere. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I am unable to access Thunderbird for my emails. On first boot it quickly shows the normal screen for a couple of seconds then crashes and shows a screen for an error report. Any further tries to open it results in just the error report screen which I then allow send to Tbird. I can print the report here if that is safe.

I have 8 email accounts on Thunderbird, 5 Gmail and 3 Outlook. My newly added Gmail account has stopped downloading email, while all the others still work as they should. I keep getting pop-up messages from Thunderbird “Server imap.gmail.com has disconnected”. The problem started yesterday and only 1 of the 8 accounts. This new Gmail account is transferred from one of my Hotmail accounts. I have 7800 emails on the server waiting to come down. Alfred

I am (again) running into trouble with spelling.

I got this offered to me: https://www.google.com/search?client=ubuntu-sn&channel=fs&q=how+to+set+dictionary+in+firefox

Doesn't quite work. Wrong things declared, etc.

I see a "badly spelt" word. Double click, go to add dictionary.

To the best of my knowledge, it is installed. Others point me to about:config spellcheck.dictionary

But that is not really offered to me when I am typing the name. So probably doesn't exist.

I'm trying ITMT, but would like some help please.
