I have these printers.

"HP LaserJet M109-M112" (the Windows default) "HP LaserJet 1020"

Regardless of the value of print.sav_print_settings, the first print dialog after starting Firefox shows "HP LaserJet 1020".

If I manually put "HP LaserJet M109-M112" (no quotes) in print_printer, it reverts to "HP LaserJet 1020" the next time Firefox starts.

How do I make "HP LaserJet M109-M112" Firefox's default? Thanks.

I'm running Thunderbird 140.2.0ers on a 2018 MacBook Pro/Sequoia 15.6.1 and am getting a very strange error message that will not clear and that is not accurate sometime between 1 and 5 minutes after I start Thunderbird. (See the images below including the only recorded error in the error console.)

I can send and receive at all of my registered accounts, which assures me that the POP3 and STMP information for them is accurate. The error box is unresponsive. The only way to clear the error is to close Thunderbird, which it does without hanging or failing to respond.

After the most recent update of the macOS and Thunderbird, everything worked as usual until today, 8/30.

A few things are going on since I put Firefox on this Mac, and I'm not sure if they're related:

  • I can't import my logins.csv
  • any time I try to save a new login, the little blue "password saved" notification pops up, but no passwords are saved
  • when I try to pair with my mobile, Firefox won't display the QR code, and instead it's blurred out and says "Pairing unsuccessful. Try Again."
  • more recently (last week or so, maybe?) the desktop browser logs me out of my account every day or two

Desktop and mobile are the most recent versions.

in Settings under "Applications" i had the "Do Nothing" options chosen for several file types, to prevent automatically getting kick to a different app every time i opened certain webpages (ie Telegram links). the "Always Ask" option is available but that also disrupts workflow with the popup box and no quick keyboard shortcut to dismiss it. i am about to downgrade i am so frustrated about this. i have several hundred pages to go through, and it should be as easy asopening the pasge and selecting text, but now each time the page opens, i'm forced to either switch apps or manually dismiss a popup.

   Content snap command-chain for /snap/thunderbird/791/gpu-2404/bin/gpu-2404-provider-wrapper not found: ensure slot is connected

This was after installing the latest update - mozilla package update. I tried re-installing the Ubuntu package with "sudo apt remove thunderbird" and then "sudo apt install thunderbird". Nothing changes, same behavior.

Without thunderbird able to run, I fear that it will also be unable to provide an update to fix the broken package. I don't know what to try next. Please help.

Hi, Updating Ubuntu 24.03 to 23.10 something went wrong and the disk is no longer bootable. All the files appear to be there, but since its not bootable I can't export the data in the normal fashion.

I installed Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS on a new disk, and mounted the unbootable disk on /oldDisk. My home directory and everything else appears to be intact.

What do I need to move from /oldDisk to the new install to get my address book and emails back?

until I get this fixed you can email me: <redacted>@evvette.net as my account address won't work... thanx in advance, Steve

I'm on Linux and have been using Firefox since I switched over. The first thing I disabled was restoring tabs because I never need it/find it annoying. I noticed that every time I would restart my computer with Firefox open it would restore the session. I understand that this happens because Firefox sees it as a crash so I changed the following settings:

  • browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash from `true` to `false`
  • browser.sessionstore.max_windows_undo from `5` to `0`
  • browser.sessionstore.max_tabs_undo from `25` to `0`
  • browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes from `1` to `0`

I changed those according to this guide: https://kb.mozillazine.org/Session_Restore#Completely_disabling_session_store

Unfortunately any time I restart my computer with Firefox open it resumes my session. Is there any other way to turn this off? Theres no way all of these settings do nothing.

I also deleted the contents of sessionstore-backups in the profile folder but it just recreates the files after a while.

My goal is to be able to restart and shutdown with Firefox open and not have to worry about it restoring tabs.

I have installed web apps to firefox on my phone by using menu -> Add to Home Screen Now that they are installed, though, I cannot get rid of them. Even if I delete the icons from my home screen, they show up in the menu when I long tap on the firefox app icon and still act as apps there. I have looked for a way to remove them and have not found one. Is there no other option than wiping firefox's data?

In Outlook it is possible to have the favorites fixed in top of the folder pane column. This is very handy when moving emails from the inbox to often used folders which fall outside the displayed part of the folder pane. (You don't have to scroll back if you want to display the content of the inbox). I cannot find a way how I could do this in Thunderbird. Is there a way to fix favorite folders in top of the folder pane?

This question was asked 10 years ago but I can't find where a fix was ever found for the latest version of TB. I would really like to keep the favorite folders in sight while scrolling down through the other folders I've created.

Is there an add-on for this? I searched without finding one.
