I updated and now "Settings" & "Quit" aren't in the ︙menu. They're hidden and I have to swipe up a second time to see them. This interferes with my workflow, as I use "Quit" dozens of times a day and it used to be effortlessly accessible via a single finger flick.

How do disable this hiding of "Setting" and "Quit"? Is there an about:config option I can toggle?

I am using Iceraven-2.23.1 (Build #2016045162), which is based on Firefox for Android and allows all users to use about:config

(If there is no about:config to disable it, let me know the last version before this was changed, and I'll use that instead.)

In the Thunderbird calendar, I'm trying to create a repeating event that occurs on the fourth Wednesday from Sep 25, 2024 through Jan 22, 2025.

But each time I try to set it up, using Jan 22 as the end date, Thunderbird changes the end date to Jan 21 and so the last event does not get created. I've tried several times and this keeps happening.

What's going on?

New computer Ubuntu 24.04 Mate, older Ubuntu 22.04 Cinnamon. Following support transfer directions (open Thunderbird on new PC, close it, paste a copy of older .thunderbird from USB stick to .thunderbird on new, over write), when I open Thunderbird no accounts are shown only the create account screen. I find no update path for older Thunderbird. New PC came with 128 esr but I found a tarball of 115 .18.0, installed it and followed transfer directions with the same results. Seems like the esr version uses a profile ending with esr and ignores my older one. What are my options for transferring 20 years of significant messages? The hard way might be to identify the account specific files in my older profile and copy them into the new esr profile...

Hi,

I have just started using Thunderbird and I'm trying to change the default colour for a hyperlink.

I have tried about:config -> browser.anchor_color and browser.active_color but neither has worked.

I also tried using a user.js file but that didn't work either.

I would have thought this would be a fairly basic thing but it seems to be impossible.

Hello, how can I remove or hide "List all tabs" btn?

Set "browser.tabs.tabmanager.enabled" as "false" stopped working for me after update to version 131.0. Hiding the btn before version 131.0 was not a problem.

I saw in release notes that "List all tabs" got some changes. link

Please how do I stop these floating windows above the tabs in Firefox 131.0? They mostly cover up the tabs and make it difficult to impossible to open or close tabs. The floating window only half shows up above he tab. This is just insane and makes using Firefox almost to much to deal with. Every time I get near a tab the floating window appears and tells me what the tab already tells me. Come on this is GARBAGE!

H E L P !!!! PLEASE....

Have just installed TB for the first time (replacing WLM) and am very happy with it. My only problem is that the option to open with a blank page is not working despite leaving the checkbox unchecked. I've tried checking and unchecking but it makes no difference, it always opens with the full setup options displayed. Is there another way to have TB open with a blank page?

New day, new glitch. Since the inception of weather showing on the Firefox landing page, it has accurately shown my location. Today, it is not only not my city, it is in another state. It also does not respond to my making a correction with my zip code. Can we expect a correction any time soon?

I am a bit confused about how to keep updating FF on my Windows 7 PC, given that after March my current version (115.17.0esr) may not work as intended. Until now I've always updated manually by downloading a small 343KB installer file that updated FF without changing any of my settings, logins and bookmarks. Hoping to simplify updating, today I set updates to "Automatically install updates (recommended)" with sub-option "When Firefox is not running". But just now a FF notification informed me it was unable to update automatically and provided a link to https://www.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/enterprise/?reason=manual-update. From the dropdown there I chose "Windows 64-bit" > "Firefox Extended Support Release (ESR)". The download is a 64MB file.

Since this seems to be a new installation and not a simple update, can I be sure it won't overwrite my current version and leave me without settings, logins and bookmarks?

I have just installed Thunderbird. I've completed the Account Setup. The page checks the input and then return an error message saying: "Unable to log in at server. Probably wrong configuration, username or password".

The username and password are stored in Bitwarden [Password Manager] so are not wrong. In any case, I have the same email account open in a different browser demonstrating that I am using the right log-in name and password.

Knowing that the configuration is likely incorrect is no help. I have no idea what part of the configuration is incorrect. Guidance on what to change would be appreciated.

[Just in case the developers are reading, it would be really useful if paste was not disabled for the password field. Other browsers don't disable paste and I don't see why security requires it.]

EDITED ADDITION [Thanks David]: The email provider is Gmail.

Well. Had my own mail server for going on 25 years. But i decided to switch my mail over to proton mail using my domain. I just cannot justify the server cost for only email. So anyway in Thunderbird i had google smtp and my servers smtp so i could send mail from different accounts. when switching over to proton i went to delete my old server smtp server info leaving only the google smtp server. Then i tried to add a new smtp server with the data protonmail provided and clicked save and it refuses to add a second smtp server. I am stumped as i tried to readd my old smtp server and it will not allow me to add that either. any ideas ?

I am having some trouble getting Thunderbird to display all my messages. I tried troubleshooting mode and found that all the messages were displayed. Restarting in normal mode having disabled my extensions and hardware acceleration, the problem returned and I could not see most of my messages. So I need to make the other changes that troubleshooting mode makes. These are described at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-mode-thunderbird as

• Window and sidebar size and position settings (described in terms of Firefox)
• userChrome and userContent customizations ; see userChrome.css and .js and userContent are unsupported

I do not understand what these are and how I can set them for routine use. Can someone point me to an explanation? Thanks.

When I make changes in the settingsscreen the changes are NOT be saved. Since the latest update 128.4.3esr I get everytime a donate screen. But I donated serveral times last month. How get I lost off it!!!

Ok, I have read several posts, and contacted support at mail.com. I have tried the fixes I have found. mail.com says I have it all set right. They have tested my account from another computer. They said they DO support Thunderbird.

I shut off my firewall. I shut off my anti-virus. We tried SSL, we tried STARTTLS. Just won't send. Said to check password, we did that. I sent mail.com screenshots of all my settings. They say it is all right. I can get mail from them but can't send. I needed POP3 to make sure I could save all the important emails to my computer AND offsite backup.

I'm baffled. They are baffled.

I wanted to use the new VPN feature and the icon initially showed up in the top right, but it has disappeared and is not present in "customise toolbar" or privacy settings either.

How to change home page and new tab to desired URL or any extension of Firefox desktop in 2025?

I am unable to find any way to change how my new tab should look when I click + sign or new tab is opened up on browser opening or re-opening unlike Chrome.

I hate the change of position of typing from the search bar on the current new tab to the URL bar (unseen or unheard in Chrome) that Firefox implemented without considering users who would detest it.

Using Firefox 131.0.3 (64-bit)

In my Linux installation, there is a folder /home/.thunderbird/<account name>/Photos It contains many small images of people in jpeg format. They have name similar to 69c143ed0a9180b5_1551971368866.jpeg or d36fef86-48fb-4fe5-b036-a42676e2e39f.VALUE=URI-JPEG. I do not know from where these files come, nor what purpose they serve, nor if they can be deleted without creating any problems. In particular, I would like to know if the creation of files in that folder can be disabled. If so, how? If not, can they be deleted without creating any issues?
