TAB I am a new user of Firefox and when I open the browser today, I only had the use of one tab on each window. Yesterday, before closing for the night, I had multiple tabs. How do I get tabs so I can open multiple windows on each screen?

When I attempt to add a Gmail account, I get this error - "Unable to login at server. Probably wrong configuration, username, or password"

Below are the steps with screenshots: - checked for no cookies to prevent Google from asking for an actual login - no stored google passwords - didn't put in my password on setup - TB finds the available configuration - prompted to login at google - add google password - allow access - error message

I have restarted Thunderbird. I have checked for updates (even though I have it on auto-update).

Are there settings on my Google or Gmail account that could prevent this from working?

Ok, this is a weird one.

I can't load https://duckduckgo.com. It breaks search in a new tab, but I also can't visit it directly from the url. The tab simply does not load.

I've cleared cache, cookies, and extensions. I've refreshed Firefox more than once.

I can visit https://html.duckduckgo.com. I can visit https://lite.duckduckgo.com.

However! In a private window, I can visit https://duckduckgo.com It still breaks in a secondary normal window.

No other site appears to be broken.

I just noticed this today when my browser updated to 136.0.1 (64-bit).

In the Picture attached you can see the tab width changing when playing any audio that brings up whatever that audio symbol is officially called. This also happens when you mute a tab. When unmuting a tab or stopping audio the tab goes back to the regular size.

Is there any setting in the about:config that could stop the resizing of the tab or any setting at all to not have this happen?

Additional info: I have set browser.tabs.tabMinWidth to 140 in about:config. This setting has been this way for years and those tabs with the audio never resized until today.

I have about 100 folders in Thunderbird with some four levels deep. My problem is that every time a click on a folder, if I slide the folder up or down just a bit while clicking, it will move the folder into a sub-folder of the adjacent folder. Is there any way to prevent this by locking the folder order or disabling this function?

I tried the help article, but it seems to be out of date and doesn't match what I see.

I have an Inbox with 4 emails.

Then I have another email that has an inbox beneath. I'd like to add this fifth inbox to the global inbox.

I reinstalled Windows on my PC along with Thunderbird. I can not find how to set the view to the way it was.

I added two jpgs to show the difference. (The way it is now and The way I want it to look.) Is there a way to change the way Message List looks ? ( I guess the Message List is the upper right part of the screen?)

I use Thunderbird on a Mac. A couple weeks ago, it stopped working properly. It will download and display messages, but I can't forward, reply or send a new message. I thought I would uninstall and reinstall, but first want to export the address book. I can't do that either. Any suggestions on what happened and how to fix it?

I recently switched over from mailbird to thunderbird. I'm adding all my accounts but for some reason one of them won't show in the left side panel. Anyone have any ideas how to fix this please

When listening to YouTube in the background, sound is distorted and stutters frequently, which makes it pretty much unusable. Audio is okay when Firefox is in the foreground, but as soon as I lock the phone, audio stutters appear.

I found one fix on Reddit, disabling HD sound in developer options, but I was unable to try it since nobody explained how to get to these developer options, I wasn't able to find that setting myself.

It started happening since 135, was in beta as well. I opted out of beta because of it, but it came on stable release as well so now both beta and stable versions has this issue.

Has anybody encounter that or have fix?

Hello All, I'm new to Thunderbird and I'm so glad to find an email client that is simple and functional (leaving New Outlook) Here is my Problem: Why do I see a sent email twice in the Sent folder? I'm told to go to: Account Settings > Copies & Folders > uncheck "copy to Sent folder" However, in Account Settings is no option for Copies & Folder to click ...???? Why do I not have this option?

On the other hand, the problem is not having a sent email automatically in Sent folder ... but rather the fact that some appear twice. Any help is highly appreciated

Thanks

I get email on both my lap top and cell phone. Have not pulled down my email on the lap top for a while. The last emails I see are dated 11/14/24. Did something change? Did I miss an email from Thunderbird? With so much garbage coming through every day, it's easy to miss somethink unusual!

In previous versions, there was a setting to download messages from the domain email server when you checked for email. This meant that it would reside on my HD, where I would retain a copy no matter what the email server did. When I replaced my PC, I moved to a newer version, but I cannot find a setting to do this, and my emails are being deleted by the server at some point (I wish to retain these.) How do I make this happen? I wouldn't think that this would be a big ask, which is why I don't understand why I no longer am seeing this setting.

Hi everyone,

I've been using Thunderbird for a few months now and never had any problems until today when I've updated to 128.5.0esr. I'm using iCloud email and suddenly my Sent folder disappeared. When I started TB it showed up and disappeared after 2-3 seconds. It happened few times when I tried to restart TB however now it's permanently gone. I didn't change any settings and the folder is visible in Apple Mail or Spark, however it's gone from TB. Any idea what's going on? Please help.

Thanks, Szymon.

Hello, I've just installed TB on a new computer (Windows11) and followed the directions given on https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/moving-thunderbird-data-to-a-new-computer to move data from the old computer to the new but when I open TB on the new computer it simply creates a new profile instead of the one I've copied into the C:\Users\...Appata\Local and \Roaming folders. What do I do to get TB to use the copied profiles? Thanks.

I just updated Firefox to version 135.0 on my mobile and now I get this really annoying thing:

Everytime I open a tab to go on the YouTube website, it asks me if I want to leave Firefox and use the YouTube app. Every single time. And it even launched it once without asking me.

I don't want to use the YouTube app, how can I make this stop?

Have a good day!

Well looks like they did it to us again. My tabs are back on top again and need to put them below where I am a lot of other users like our tabs!

Update: Codes working fine now for 133.0
