I have had Thunderbird from the time I acquired my Mac computer. This week it started to do something new. After a restart I opened Thunderbird. A box came up that says across the top System Integration. The cursor balloons, and hasn't stopped for the time I powered the computer, as least fifteen minutes. You know how the program icons are in a dock across the bottom. With other browsers open, hitting the Thunderbird icon doesn't bring its window into the forefront. This needs either a reset, or possibly a backup first. Is there a quicker way to fix this? Thanks in advance. I am not using a VPN; but I also have Thunderbird on my Windows 11. You might have seen a more recent thread on that installation. I included a screenshot. It was easier here to do that than on the Windows 11. On the Mac, I just had to use Activity Monitor to close out of Thunderbird in order to get its version.

iCloud > Private Relay breaks Firefox when accessing company internal websites

Hi,

I have been struggling for months and months with Firefox on macOS. I have been the only user in our company struggling.

Our IT has been constantly attacking me for using Apple macOS Betas and iOS Betas. And many people in the company have assumed the problems are related to macOS DNS issues.

To try to solve the problems, we removed my Fortigate hardware vpn. We set me up with a new wifi router.

I am on macOS 27 Developer Beta 5.

Brave can access process.tomsawyer.com and build.tomsawyer.com. Chrome can access process.tomsawyer.com and build.tomsawyer.com. Safari could not access process.tomsawyer.com and build.tomsawyer.com. Firefox could not access process.tomsawyer.com and build.tomsawyer.com.

I have been struggling for a long time. Today Safari was unable to access process.tomsawyer.com and build.tomsawyer.com, both of which are internal Tom Sawyer Software web sites. I finally realized that I had iCloud > Private Relay turned on and I decided to try turning it off.

Good news Safari could now access process.tomsawyer.com and build.tomsawyer.com.

I went about my business trying to debug other problems because Firefox on Windows 11 also could not access process.tomsawyer.com and build.tomsawyer.com. I have a brand new Windows 11 setup on another laptop. Turning off DNS over HTTP in Firefox on Windows 11 solved the problem so now the Edge, Chrome, Brave, and Firefox browsers could all access our internal Tom Sawyer websites, good news!

Then at the last minute, because I became curious, I did a test and I turned off iCloud > Private Relay and Firefox suddenly could access process.tomsawyer.com and build.tomsawyer.com on macOS.

I then turned on iCloud > Private Relay and Firefox suddenly could not access process.tomsawyer.com and build.tomsawyer.com on macOS.

I quit and restarted Firefox in between each change of settings for iCloud > Private Relay.

I did this Private Relay on and off a couple of more times, yes turning it on breaks Firefox on macOS when accessing internal company websites.

This reminds me of the old days where Windows and Internet Explorer were intertwined. Apple is doing something similar to what Microsoft used to do in the bad old days with Internet Explorer.

I've been literally struggling for months and months, and now I use Brave happily. I'll hope my Firefox problems are now solved but the Firefox team should work with Apple and address this iCloud > Private Relay problem together.

Good luck!

Thanks, Brendan Madden CEO Tom Sawyer Software

How to re-enable group tab function?

When i downloaded the app, it automatically came with the ability to group tabs, but after i customized several settings it took all of my tabs out of the groups and i can't group them anymore. The settings i changed ranged from privacy to personalization, i tried to reverse some of them to see if that would help and did a bunch of back and forth, but it's still not coming back. (Im trying to leave chrome because i noticed it had some very concerning lack of privacy settings that messed with my phone's ability to function properly if i turned them off. And Edge is worse.) Firefox seems better, but without the group tabs option it makes it waaaay too ridiculous to try and do any real work with it. I do a lot of multitasking and research and need to be able to bounce around and organize stuff. Your help stuff on tab groups doesnt say anything about how to turn it on or off. So... how do i get it back?

Firefox for Android uses phone layout on iQOO/Vivo Tablet – Nightly works correctly

Hello Firefox Support Team, I am experiencing a UI/layout issue with Firefox for Android on my tablet. Device information: Device: iQOO Pad 5 Pro Operating system: Origin… (читать ещё)

Hello Firefox Support Team,

I am experiencing a UI/layout issue with Firefox for Android on my tablet.

Device information:

Device: iQOO Pad 5 Pro Operating system: OriginOS 6 HD Android version: Android 16 Firefox version: 153.0.3 Build: 2016176519

The problem is that the regular Firefox version does not use the proper tablet layout on my device. Instead, Firefox appears to use the smartphone/phone layout, even when the tablet is used in landscape orientation. The interface does not make proper use of the large tablet display and looks like the phone version stretched or displayed on a tablet.

The device itself is configured with a smallest width of 820 dp, so Android should clearly recognize it as a large-screen/tablet device.

Interestingly, Firefox Nightly 155.0a1 works correctly on exactly the same device. Nightly displays the proper tablet-optimized interface and makes appropriate use of the full screen.

Therefore, this appears to be a difference between the current stable Firefox release and Firefox Nightly rather than an OriginOS limitation.

Could you please check whether the tablet UI improvements/fix present in Firefox Nightly 155.0a1 are expected to be included in a future stable Firefox release, or whether there is a way to enable the same tablet layout in Firefox 153.0.3?

I can also provide screenshots showing the difference between Firefox Stable and Firefox Nightly on the same device if needed.

Thank you for your help.

Suggestions

1. A lightweight and customizable version:

  · The ability to permanently remove Pocket.
  · Disable sponsored ads and recommendations on the home page.
  · Please avoid automatically adding suggested extensions, and keep only the Add-ons button.

2. Built-in free features:

  · A free, unlimited VPN.
  · A built-in AI assistant.
  · A built-in video player.
  · An integrated download manager.

3. An alternative to monthly subscriptions:

  Since most users do not have access to international payment methods, we kindly suggest an optional support model:
  · A “Buy me a coffee” button.
  · Cryptocurrency donations.
  · Voluntary support: those who are able to support may do so, and those who cannot may continue using it for free.

Thank you for considering these suggestions.

Every time I start Thunderbird it takes several minutes and sometimes doesn't start up. Once it does open up, emails do update new ones but if I go to account settings and select anything it hangs up. If I click on it, grays out and gets a message Thunderbird not responding. I have to open task manager to stop the program. Why aren't the emails on my email server get deleted/ moved updated when using Thunderbird? It seems like the only thing that happens only gets changed on the device I made changes to only. (computer, or phone or laptop)

Playback works correctly usually, but if I jump forward or backwards in time it sometimes never loads. This also completely bricks the whole brower, all other tabs etc, until I close firefox and restart it. This happens on all vods of twitch, and also livestreams where I am able to rewind (subscriber function). I have no extensions enabled, and have the default settings on firefox etc. ("Use recommended performance settings") Video of it happening: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3difRLhE-cA

Hi everyone,

Since updating to Firefox 129 on Windows 11, some tabs become unresponsive after my laptop wakes from sleep — no crash, no "Not Responding" warning, just frozen. about:processes shows the tab still running with ~0% CPU, so it's not hung, just not repainting.

Tried: disabling hardware acceleration (helps a bit), fresh profile (still happens), Troubleshoot Mode (less frequent but not gone).

Anyone else seeing this? Known WebRender/compositor bug tied to sleep/resume, or a Windows 11 power management conflict?

Thanks!
