Hello,

I suffer from Parkinson's Disease ads find the various "hot-keys" to be more annoying than of ANY potential benefit, all too often causing unwanted actions due to some errant key-press.

Is it possible to disable ALL?

Thank you,

For a while now, Firefox and a few other browsers default my keyboard to navigating through web page items rather than typing letters when I click in the search bar or address bar. Then I have to click TAB (sometimes several times) to get the keyboard typing again. I have tried 4 keyboards total and they all act the same way but act normally on my Windows PC. I have done extensive investigating into why this might be happening and why its only happening in web browsers and have come up with nothing. I am using Raspbian OS on a RPi5 and have used it smoothly for about 7 months. This issue has slowly gotten worse until it is now constant. I reinstalled the OS completely and it stopped malfunctioning for a few days but came back in a hurry. I've come to you as a last resort. I am sure Firefox is not the issue but if you know of any possible reason why this might be happening and point me in the right direction I would be eternally grateful. Thanks.

Dear Jim,

I needed to go to sleep at 3am last night to rise for a 12 noon Christmas day dinner. So I am back now.

I have not been able to drag a picture into the text of an email message.

I mark the point of insert with the cursor, go to Insert menu, select the attach picture, and it ends up at the top of the email outside my message. When I try to drag the picture into the text area, a mat covers the text area instructing to insert it here. When I release it on the hotspot, the matted area goes blank and I receive a menu message "The following files couldn't be attached: "filename.jpg". Please try again later."

I seem to be doing everything correctly. I was able to do this some time in the past.

I am wondering if the problem has to do with a memory cache problem. Do I have too many 2000 blocked emails. Maybe a security problem not allowing the attachment?

I have been using TB for years but I can no longer figure out how to use the current version. Is there an Idiots Guide for TB?

I am curious if anyone has any experience using Firefox and the Weston keyboard. My hardware is a TI-skam62evm with a touch screen. When I run firefox the weston keyboard does not ever pop-up.

I can get the keyboard to show up with chromium if I pass in the --enable-wayland-ime flag when I launch chromium.

I did some digging and my trail ended with looking at WAYLAND debug logs that show weston advertising zwp_input_method_v1 and zwp_text_input_manager_v1 but firefox not binding. What input method does firefox use?

[2307619.264] wl_registry@18.global(20, "zwp_input_method_v1", 1) [2307619.295] wl_registry@18.global(21, "zwp_text_input_manager_v1", 1)

Any thoughts on how to use firefox with the Weston keyboard would be greatly appreciated.

When will this madness end?!

It used to be great.

ctrl shift n gets you back the last window

ctrl shift t gets you back the last tab.

Now, ctrl shift t gets you back the last window?!?!?!?!

WHAT ABOUT ALL THE TABS? I have to open history to see where i have been.

BRING IT BACK

I read somewhere that the change was to make firefox more like chrome. So let's cut off our nose to spite our face. This was major feature that DISTINGUISHED Firefox from chrome, and worth migrating to Firefox for!

Please please wake up and smell the coffee. Large corporations spend huge sums to achieve positive differentiation, and you threw it away.

Woke up today and my account is not working. Asks to sign in using my password. When put in it says it is not valid. Rebooted computer but problem remains. Nothing has changed.

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren,

meine E-Mails aus meinem Posteingang und aus sämtlichen übrigen Ordnern (außer dem Spam-Ordner) werden seit ein paar Tagen scheinbar automatisch von Thunderbird in in den Papierkorb meines GMX-Accounts verschoben. Dass die Löschung meiner E-Mails tatsächlich von Thunderbird aktiv durchführt wird, kann man auch mit Hilfe des Aktivitätenfensters (Tools -> Activity Manager) beobachten.

Sämtliche allgemeine Empfehlungen (Verhinderung eines Fremdzugriffs) habe ich befolgt - ohne dass dies geholfen hätte - zum Beispiel habe ich mein Passwort geändert, die Zwei-Faktor-Authentifizierung bei GMX aktiviert, Virenscans durchgeführt, die Filterregeln kontrolliert (kein Einsortieren in den Papierkorb oder den Gelöscht-Ordner), die Spamfilter kontrolliert (Spam-Mails werden nicht verschoben oder gelöscht) und alle Zugriffsberechtigungen (Logins von anderen Programmen und Geräten) zurückgesetzt.

Was kann ich tun, um meine E-Mails zu retten?

Vielen Dank für Ihre Unterstützung und freundliche Grüße

Volker Werling

I am going to change computer. I can not sign in to my mozilla Thunderbird mailprogram in the new computer. My adress is : evaochleif.olofsson@telia.com I got following message: Inloggning till servern mailin.telia.com med användarnamnet evaochleif.olofsson@telia.com misslyckades. Best regards Leif Olofsson

I am online and trying to look at a video on cruise deck plan which have a paid subscription to and I am signed in. When I clicked on play for the YouTube video, I was told to sign in and I was already signed in. What gives?

Recently forced to update MAC OS to Big Sur, then Thunderbird stopped connecting. Thunderbird asks for a password that i enter correctly (works when directly logging into Gandi) but will not accept. No option on entering user name, just password. Contact@kencorm.org

Also, I payed for years and I'm getting pay or account will close 25 Jan 2025...

Thank you, Ken Cormier

I just switched from Blue Mail to Thunderbird on Android.

First s big thanks for finally making Thunderbird on desktop touch friendly, this was long overdue.

Now to my feature request for thunderbird Android. Please allow (or just enable my default) that the controls to search in mails/delete mails etc are moved to the bottom of the screen so you can easily reach them on as mobile phone (just like blue Mail does it).

Second smaller request: please make the email list less "crowded" somehow the fonts and density are hard to read. Again have a look at blue Mail for how to do this a bit better. Could also be an option.

When I start Thunderbird 128.5.2esr (32-bit) on my Windows 10 Home PC Version 10.0.19045 Build 19045, it has become increasingly slower recently. I have been using it for many years now and up until this year it would typically start in ~30 seconds.

I am accessing three separate POP email accounts and each of them has a number of subfolders with important stored messages. I thought that perhaps I had just too many folders and messages, so I removed hundreds of the stored messages and some of the sub folders. I routinely compact all accounts.

Today, it took over 8 minutes for Thunderbird to open. Incidentally, once it opens initially it seems to perform normally thereafter.

Is there something that I can do to speed things up?

Thanks in advance, Rich Green

How do I get rid of the requirement of having ctrl or alt in extension shortcuts? Also overriding firefox shortcuts would be nice.

I've been using my binds/shortcuts in chrome for years and I'm not adding multiple keys to all of them. I really want to use firefox as my only browser but can't because of these stupid restrictions.

Please do you have an answer to my problem : many archiced gone folders ? I would very deeply like to recover all the folders lost since my action, his morning. Thank you very much Bernard bernard.zamora@free.fr
