When I do "save as " action for an image in the browser it opens dialogue window to save selected image. Unfortunately it displays files and folders in some random order, rather than my preferred order (sorted alphabetically by name, followed by sorting by type).

I can see no rhyme or reason to the way Firefox lists files and folders in the dialogue window, so every time I am saving an image I have to sort things by name and type before I can find what I want.

This is not permanent so I have to repeat this action every time I save an image.

How do I, please set application preferences? to make this setting permanent?

auto filling of password in Android not working properly I mean its not promoting automatically fill the saved password. It also not fill in Android desktop mode. But in pc it's working fine with same login id.

This pop message appeared about 4 hours ago. I still cannot recieved email. Do you know why and how long it before the system is working again.

Thunderbird Alert from account peter@pfirving.com: Account is temporarily unavailable.

I have used Thunderbird to manage my google calendar on PC, windows 11, for years. It seems now that when I add an event, hit save and close, it is not saved. All the events show. I can add events on my phone, and they show up in the calendar on Thunderbird, instantly. I just can no longer add events. I can try, but when I save, they do not appear in the Thunderbird calendar, or in Google. I did just recently change my password in Google, and had to re-authenticate Thunderbird, I suspect that's the instigator of the issue. I just feel I'm missing something. One note-if I click on "add account", there is no option for calendar anymore. Maybe this is gone.

I have previous ask questions on how to transfer profiles, local folders, sent messages, and all address from my old Windows 10 PC to a new Windows 11 PC. "David" provided a very help way to transfer the profiles between machines which helped immensely. However, I still do not seem to have the address book file(s).

Here is where I am and what I would like to be able to do.

When I first installed Thunderbird on the new PC, I set it up as an IMAP account with comcast.net. The contacts in the address book were showing. When I copied my Thunderbird profile from the old PC to get my Local Folders, the address book was gone. I repeated the install process and copying process to make sure I was not making an error. The results were the same each time.

What I would like to do is to find and directly copy the address file(s) from the old PC to the new. Is this possible and where are they located?

Thank you in advance to the time and patience to answer my question.

Firefox declare to be aware of privacy but as soon as I use Firefox to go on the internet, I immediately get connections from these 2 addresses : 34.107.243.93 34.107.221.82 in addition to the address of the site I connect to.

And sometimes, I receive so many connection attempts on ports that are not implied in the connection I have established with the initial site (conntrack) that I am obliged to disconnect the network.

This does not happen with other browsers like Konqueror, Falcon, etc. I suffered an attack in this way in the past with heavy consequences. Is there a way to configure Firefox in order to suppress it ?

I've used Thunderbird with the Owl add-on for Exchange/Outlook accounts for several years. Recently I've found when I open Thunderbird on my laptop, a tab opens for each account, apparently showing the Outlook web page for each account. This is great, but on the same version of Thunderbird (140.3.1esr) on my desktop, that doesn't happen. I can't see how to open these tabs there, or even how to reopen one of these tabs on my laptop, except from Go->Recently Closed Tabs. Am I missing something? What controls this behaviour?

Most of my Comcast Mail is going directly to Trash. Many of these e-mails have a green dot. What does this green dot mean? Why is all this happening? I don't have a problem with Outlook Mail or GMail?

Jag behöver hjälp med att Thunderbird inte längre fungerar vid lagring av mail. Varken till Arkivet eller Skickat mappen. Alltså jag kan inte se om jag skickat ett mail. Roland H

When I use on line banking and I want to look at a check, I can not get Firefox to render a check image. Also I downloaded tickets to an event and FF would not render the Q-code on the tickets. I what to know what settings to change in order to do online banking. BTW it works in Chromium Browser, but I do not use it and have little knowledge about Chromium, I just have it on my laptop for troubleshooting.

I have pop up blockers set to allow pop up blockers, but ev en though they are turned on. Firefox will not allow pop up windows in the learning management software (D2L brightspace) used at my university.

hi, my emails are set never to delete but they are disappearing after three weeks. If I scroll down today, I can't see any emails before the 16th of September. If I know what I am looking for, the emails appear in the search function. Does anyone know why they are not in the inbox? My settings are set so that emails never delete.

Two questions .......... You have my operating system as windows 10, it is windows 11 ??? ......... 2nd question ......... when I bring up Firefox it shows the weather for Chicago, I live in Minneapolis/St. Paul area, following your weather location change instruction, the weather still goes back to Chicago.

This issue has been confirmed on 140.3.1esr (64-bit).

When adding a new account via IMAPS/SMTPs connection, if it's the first time saving a draft or sending an email, the emails do not move to the Drafts or Sent Items folders as expected. Instead, they move to a newly created folder in the Local Folders. Furthermore, the special folder settings in the account configuration automatically change to point to the Local Folders instead of the connected IMAPs folder.

Testing with Thunderbird 128.14.0esr did not reproduce this issue.

I suspect this issue might stem from a mapping problem with Japanese folder names in the Japanese localization. (e.g., “下書き” as “Drafts”, ‘送信済みトレイ’ as “Sent”, etc...) Alternatively, could this be a change in behavior?

Thank you for your assistance.

Hi Folks,

I want to seek opinion on how to manage the virus detected in emails (or its attachments) through Kaspersky Anti Virus.

I have large no of emails in TB stored in mbox format. Around 30GB in Inbox and another 5GB in Sent, etc. I also use Kaspersky Internet Security which has anti-virus also active.

Now my anti virus detects some infected emails. How to clean the infected virus emails / attachments.

Question: 1) When using mbox file on TB, is Kaspersky capable to delete ONLY a single specific infected file from the entire mbox data without any corruption of mail data? 2) If not, how to setup the anti-virus to automatically clean, disinfect and delete/quanrantine individual mail. ?

3) Is MailDir a better way to save emails in profile and use anti-virus. There is a warning on Maildir saying its still not settled and may have bugs. Is that true even today ?

Thanks & Regards, Tejas
