Cannot connect to email through swcp.com. Thunderbird says: No Message Found".. Info from you says Thunderbird crashed (6-7 days ago), will "try" to reconnect when up and running. Do I have to use Thunderbird if I subscribe to swcp? Send answer to JerryKayaa@aol.com.

Im unable to load any local LAN website from phone over wifi if internet not available. for example connecting to my router via wifi when net is down to troubleshoot. Im a technician and need to be able to access sites on LAN with no internet.

Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) no longer allows Firefox'. When I try to execute the login function on the PG&E.com website, it says Firefox browser not supported. I was told to use Chrome Mask, but I couldn't get this to work either. Maybe I don't know how to use Chrome Mask. Would somebody try to install Chrome Mask and log into pg&e.com, click on the login box and put in some fake username and password. Then tell me if they could make it work.

We mail out publication notices to subscribers. The Titles and Highlights come from a MySQL DB that stores text extracted from Adobe InDesign or PDFs which include typographer's punctuation and may also contain HTML tags added for display on the website.

All data is stored, encoded, retrieved and displayed as UTF-8 using PHP and PHP mailer on Win platform. Other common Email clients tested, including Outlook, display the message content correctly. T-Bird (current) displays error characters for all entities in html view yet the message source correctly reads all charaters in accordance with UTF-8. We have tried every imaginable method from binhex to literal string replacement in regex and an array of PHP functions. Nothing works. The source is correct, the rendering is not. It would appear that T-bird is broken. Does anyone have a clue?

HI, I have TBird 102.15.1 64Bit installed on several different PCs and laptops. On my main Laptop I checked the Roaming\Thunderbird folder properties and found the following: Size on Disk: 35.8 GB Contains 253,172 files and 1,533 Folders. Is their anyway I can reduce the size? My TBird seems to be running slowly and occasionally stalls. I do not want to switch back to Outlook client program, I am not a Microsoft supporter. I do know I could move mail to local folders but would that mean I could only access them from one machine? Thanks.

I have Firefox as my desktop default browser. When I try to make on line pharmacy appointments, Firefox will not complete the process. I am forced to use Edge or Chrome. Could this be a Firefox problem or a Rite Aid problem? Thank you.

I have a valid account with the San Francisco Chronicle. When I log in using Firefox 131.0.2 (aarch64) on my Macbook Pro Apple M1 Max Sonoma 14.6.1 the Chronicle site doesn't appear. It works fine using other browsers, for example Safari.

I get the following in the URL location:

Recently, my Firefox started running slow. Most sites are accessed fast. When a site requires a login though, it takes a very long time to get to the login screen. Sometimes, it doesn't get there at all. I've tried these sites on a different browser and there is no slowness.

Any thoughts would be helpful. Thanks.

Firefox 131.0 / Windows 11

I am running Firefox version 131.0.1 on an Android Version 14 tablet and am experiencing an intermittent scrolling problem. We use the tablet to primarily read articles from our local newspaper online. About a third of the time, when we open a new page or article to read, we are unable to use the touchscreen or mouse to scroll down. When we try to do so, the page or article will immediately return back to the top of the page or article, when for example we remove our finger from the touchscreen, which prevents us from reading anything below what is shown from the top of the page or article.

Sometimes, but not always, we can restore the proper scrolling behavior by reloading the page or by opening and closing a particular article, but we don't have a reliable workaround.

Any ideas on how to fix this rather annoying problem? Many thanks in advance from my wife and myself for all suggestions.

The code to release memory for images:

   URL.revokeObjectURL(objectURL);

is working across all other browsers except firefox. Please give a solution to fix this.

First of all, there's this new thing called AI. Maybe you've heard about it when you meet a competitor at a party, etc. If you ever choose to use it (a pretty big "if"), you might install it in your forums. Nah, that ain't likely. But here's the question: How can I get FF to quit closing pages (photos, music, Word docs) when I want to save them? One of the problems is your FAQs are programmed to read CRASH, when they "see" CLOSING PAGES. I know, FAQs are there to make Mozilla more $$$$. They have nothing to do with customer service.

Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) no longer supports Firefox. Please contact them and try to get them to support it. Otherwise I will have to use a Chrome, which I don't want to.

I have tested this with Chrome, Firefox (latest update 131.0.2). Firefox stopped showing select-able buttons a few weeks ago, while Chrome and the iPhone app on IOS 18.0.1 on my Phone display the items correctly.

CORRECT DISPLAY - See attached "Correct Display" JPG. INCORRECT DISPLAY - See attached "Incorrect Display" JPG

When I edit the original iCoud NOTE, and remove the selection buttons, then re-add them, I can see that Firefox FIRST picks up the correct radio buttons then VERY quickly changes them to black boxes which can neither be selected nor un-selected.  :-(

Firefox drops my connection. All of a sudden, it is working fine, then it becomes unresponsive. It is no longer connected to the WiFi. But the WiFi is up and running fine. The only thing that brings it back is to close down the browser, and restart it. Then it comes up connected. Or I can switch to Edge and that works fine. It is not my computer or connection, it is the Firefox browser doing this.

Second problem. More and more of the sites I visit, like Hulu, my doctors, and many others will not work on Firefox. Isn't there something you can do about this. It requires me to use the address I am on and paste it into Edge. Then it works fine. If this continues to grow, I will have to make my default browser Edge. Please see what you can do. No doubt this puts a smile on the Microsoft engineers faces.
