When I click the "+" icon to open a new tab it sometimes for some reason makes me get the "not responding" message in the title bar and the window goes white. It's not necessarily a crash, after a waiting 5-10 seconds it opens the new tab. People have told me to disable my browser extensions, although that didn't work. I don't have much else to say, but I'd be more than happy to cooperate.

My email provider - part of Claranet- has recently updated its security certificate which is now not accepted by Thunderbird or Google mail on Android devices. I can access mail by removing SSL/TSL but not send, and thar leaves me with no security so lots of spam getting through. Claranet say this must be down to these platforms ( hope I have the right terminology). Can anyone advise?

It's some weeks since I cannot use TB properly due to some authentication issues with some of my gmail accounts. I do receive the incoming emails but I'm no more able to send. When I try, the send window hangs with no progress and what I need to do is close the current email which I'm not even able to save as draft, restart TB and then wait for the software to open the browser and say that the application is authorized. I've already done this several time per each account. I've tried to delete the saved password and token but it does not help. Another gmail account which is also configured on TB but almost never used to send emails is working perfectly and it has 3 entries in the Password management section of the setting window: two of those seem to be the same and contain the current password while the other entry has the token.

Using TB 153.6.0esr (64 bit) Badge per Thunderbird MeadowThunderbird for Linux Mintmint-001 - 1.0 on Linux Mint 22.3, Kernel: Linux 6.8.0-149-generic, Architecture: x86-64.

The issue has been noted also before the recent update, when running TB 153.4.0esr (64 bit) always on Linux Mint.

I've double checked the account/server settings and those seem to be exactly the same as two years ago when I configured my several Gmail accounts on TB on this laptop. I've also tried to add an exception on the cookies settings, but the problem persists. Actually, I'm obliged to restart TB each time the issue occurs and then it works without any setting/configuration change. This lets me think that all the settings are ok otherwise I would never be able to send/receive any email even after restarting TB.

Where do extensions generally store their data. EG Tab Session Manager. In this case there is a tab for storing backups but nothing is said about where the basic data is stored.

I assume it's somewhere in the profile info, but the files generally have impenetrable names. Most of the extension devs aren't easy to contact.

MacOS 15.8.3. Firefox 160.0

Firefox had signed me out of the Web sometime last night, I left it signed in and woke to being signed out. Tried to sign back in, but haven't received the codes. At one point it said I attempted to many times. Im signed in everywhere else but my laptop.

On Firefox mobile, First you click on the menu (three dots) Then more, Then translate, Then sometimes fill in the languages to translate from and to. (1. The auto detect source language feature doesn't always work 2. That's way too much steps, if I have to repeat this navigation for every page)

And after all that, 8 times out of 10 the pages do not translate. and stay stuck on attempting to translate.

Also sometimes it does not translate the whole page, especially on places you have to "click more to read" Or some context menus on both pc and mobile.

Also, everytime when reverting to the original translation, a page refresh is triggered which clears blocks that had been completed whether pc or mobile.

I do not use auto translate feature for accuracy reasons and some of the mentioned issues above.

I have been a Firefox user for a long time but had been using other browsers for pages that require translation due to it not being a feature on the browser at the time.

Now, after giving it a try for a year+, it's really lacking on both pc and mobile.

Mostly, I translate from Dutch to English and also Chinese simplified to English.

Would be great if some of these can be addressed.

Noting being a great tech person here is what I have learned from research of others for the website affected.

The first image shows a screenshot. Normally, in this image, there would be a map where the black is located. Since Firefox 160, images are not showing up on this website.

I also noticed today, perhaps connected, where I added a photo on eBay for an item I was selling, that photo also did not display on Firefox when added.

Here are two notes from someone on the tech side for the website I was using since the Firefox update.

"Disabling NoScript entirely for the tab lets the page load, but it would be nice to not have to turn off my security."

"Disabling noscript for the tab seems to work in a Private window, but before doing so I also saw this in console when trying to log in - which is somewhat concerning."

For the record, I have never had a NoScript extension for Firefox.

Hi,

I'm a bit helpless. Everything was working just fine with Thunderbird, but now it seems like my Outlook account just doesn't connect anymore. I was unable to send any message anymore yesterday. Today, I tried to disconnect and reconnect it, and now, when I try to set it up back again, it just takes forever as you can see on the image.

How come ? What can I do ?

Thanks,

I have tried to fix 1 of 4 Thunderbird email accounts not receiving or sending emails. Been lagging for a few days although other 3 accounts working fine. Followed a YouTube, checked settings, firewalls, virus settings etc. Then on 'Inbox' selected 'New' then 'Properties' then 'Ok' and all my inbox and deleted emails have disappeared! Please help!

For some time Thunderbird has not been displaying email I finally got an error message:

"This message requires formatting features that your email client does not support. To read today's newsletter, use this link: <>"

Nothing was in the suggested "use this link"

What formatting feature am I missing? How did I lose it? I can I discover it and include it again? Is this a Firefox problem or my Windows 11 problem?

I did remover Firefox and then reinstalled it but that didn't change anything. -- Robert Kastigar 5101 N Central Park Ave Chicago IL 60625 773 588 9634 Kastigar@gmail.com

I am running Win7 and only using Firefox 115.45.0 which I recently upgraded to from 115.44. For the last few weeks, I get an Ebay Error message when trying to search its site. At first, I could enter a search term, let it sit awhile and then click "search". If I got the error message [a kid w/ orange jacket over his head and a small message saying "something went wrong at our end" plus a long number (not always the same)], often highlighting the URL, holding the Enter button down a while, then releasing it would allow the search to be fulfilled. That no longer works. Over a week ago I contacted a Customer Service agent who said she would contact their Technical people, but the situation seems now worse, and I haven't been contacted. I have had no trouble with my account pages & features. Does anyone else have this problem and does anyone have suggestions about mine? Yes, I have cleared cookies and cache ( including when I updated Firefox ESR today). Can't think of anything else new on my system. FWIW, I can't/won't upgrade this old OS for various reasons. I also can't try other browsers. I don't visit lots of places, (no "social" media) and no others where I do any searching as on Ebay; it is the only site with problems.
