I am needing to speak with someone to get them to replace my "Pro" version that I have had for years. Recently someone at Adobe responded to my inquiry on another matter and when they did they somehow removed the "Pro" functions leaving me with some very basic version of Adobe that is not what I have always paid for. And, I need this corrected now as I'm up against a deadline. bold text

When I try to open firefox on my android phone, it just closes and gives me an error message which I have attached a screen shot of.

I do not know if this is related but this happened after I scanned a qr code and tried to open it.

I have un-installed and reinstalled the app and turned my phone off then on again after reinstalling but this did not help.

Pls can you help?

Thunderbird v128.4.3ser (32-bit) setup with 4 accounts: Shaw.ca (POP), Shaw.ca (IMAP), 2xGmail (OAuth2). The Shaw.ca (POP) account is the main one, and it stopped receiving email. Another (related?) issue is that Local Folders does not appear. The size of that one Inbox is 4.0GB, which I understand is a limit. I don't want to delete any of that email, but I'm fine with moving/archiving some of it. I moved a whack of it to an Archive folder, but the size of the Inbox and Archive folders don't change (4.0GB + 0.0GB). I have tried repairing and compacting. What can I do? I'm a technician/troubleshooter with many years of experience with Thunderbird ... I recommend it to all 6000 of my clients, because (until now) it is bulletproof.

Scenario: I am running a node.js UI that proxies requests to the backend API. When `timeout=10` (or any valid timeout) is located in the request URL, the request will be proxied at the timeout interval ten times. In this example, every ten seconds it will reattempt for ten attempts.

If I run the same code in another browser's console, it is only executed once.

I am suspecting that there is some pre-parsing of the URL that is occurring that is making this happen.

Fetch Command: ``` await fetch("http://localhost:8080/config?timeout=10", {

   "credentials": "omit",
   "headers": {
       "User-Agent": "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:132.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/132.0",
       "Accept": "application/json",
       "Accept-Language": "en-US,en;q=0.5",
       "Content-Type": "application/json",
       "Sec-Fetch-Dest": "empty",
       "Sec-Fetch-Mode": "cors",
       "Sec-Fetch-Site": "same-origin",
       "Priority": "u=0",

"Timeout": 40

   },
   "referrer": "http://localhost:8080/swagger/index.html?config=/config/swagger",
   "method": "POST",
   "mode": "cors"

}); ```

In the POST API, there is a 30 second sleep, then it raises a 408 error code.

Environment: Firefox 132.0.2 (64-bit) Windows 10

Running 115.16.3 because I have a Windows 7 Pro computer. Fine for years! Then a series of power failures and system crashes.

Now Thunderbird looks very plain - black and white lines, no 3D blue colors, Delete button is text only, it used to be red. Entire interface looks simple and old.

Checked my outgoing and incoming server settings. They match the settings in Edison+ Email that I use on my phone. Phone is getting new messages, Thunderbird on my desktop is not.

Outgoing mail asks for a password each time, which it did not before. I know the password, but what a pain.

I have hundreds, actually thousands of emails saved in local folders. They are all there, but I am worried if I can migrate them if I move it to a different computer.

My inbox has nearly 300 messages now, and growing rapidly.

HELP!

Hi. From individual banks to which I would like to log in come in Notes "update your browser". At GMX, the process of registration has been working as figuration very arduously for several weeks. However, my updates are up to date. I had Windows 8 and expanded a few months ago to currently Windows 10. Does it make sense to delete Firefox once and then reload? However, I do not want to make the whole settings anew. Do you have advice? Thank you.!!!!

Hi

I have several different email accounts. All but one are working fine. But my primary account is continuously unresponsive and freezes. This has been going on for several weeks now and today I can't get that account to work at all.

I'm on Windows 11 and have tried re-starting my laptop in Safe Mode but the freezing persists. I've tried turning off Windows Defender - it makes no difference and I don't have any other anti-virus running.

I have 450 emails in my Inbox and don't want to lose any of them or my address book. I do back up each week.

Not very tech savvy and no clue how to sort the issue out.

All help appreciated.

I get speeds around 10 Mb but every so often I get buffering for seconds and speed drops to around 1 Mb and a few Kb upload. Panning my cctv cameras can vary from a delay of 0.5 scs to several seconds. Three years ago my estate was told that high speed fibre would be available but we are still waiting (we are only 100mtrs from the Plympton exchange.) There is no response whatsoever from OpenReach and it says no update is planned now.

How can I find out what is happening.? if I am not going to get fibre then I will cancel my contract and switch to 5G.
