hi, firstly i would like to ask how can i open email attachments in another window, rather than as a attachment opening in thunderbird. for example, when i opened a windows document attachment, it used to open a separate page away from thunderbird and not sit in the taskbar (the section at the top of thunderbird) and the same with adobe attachments, they used to open in adobe as a separate file rather than next door to the windows document in the task bar. secondly, as i have got used to the above changes (but not ideal), but now, when i open any attachments and leave them in the taskbar, if i restart (close) thunderbird and re-open, the attachments in the task bar shows

        problem loading page The address wasn’t understood' One of the following (imap) is not a registered protocol or is not allowed in this context.
   You might need to install other software to open this address.

can anyone please advise me on how to sort either out. i am not very computer competent, and it's driving me a bit mad. kind regards, simon

when i use the URL box as a search box, and it gets selected, the background turns dark dark grey -- can't read what's under it (to see what i selected/want to copy) or type in (what i'm searching for). AND when that box offers options, the links come in the most awful blue-green I've ever seen. Tried to change the color by command -- no luck. and it's not reading "use system colors" which it did before.

This is an utter crap preset MAC OS Ventura

I have this one page which has "meta refresh" set to 2 minutes, and the page displays my own data from some sensors so it has to be that way.

Anyway, the tab is making the clicking sound whenever it reloads the page. Muting the tab doesn't help.

Is there a way to disable the "click" when the tab reloads in the background?

Hello

Since updating to 120.0 on a win 11 pro platform, clicking a link on a webpage no longer opens it in a new tab. Options to do this and switch to the new page are both checked in general / tabs / settings. Any ideas why this is happening?

TIA Dave

I typically download 30 to 40 video files daily of around 5 MB each. The most I can download seems to be 8 files, then I have to select the next 8 to download. Is there a way I can select all 30 files and have them download one at a time in order without having to keep selecting the next file?

Hi, I got a new laptop recently and ever since then I've been experiencing this problem. Websites like https://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com or https://ukutabs.com offer the option to autoscroll, so that you can play your instrument without having to pause your playing and scroll further yourself. This feature hasn't been working for me ever since I got my new device and since it's various sites, I suppose the problem must be in the browser itself, I just can't figure it out. In the case of Ultimate Guitar, when I click autoscroll, it does move slightly, once, but then stops again, and you'd miss the movement if you're not paying close attention. I can switch between various speeds on this site as well, but it doesn't do anything. In case of Ukutabs, there's not even any kind of response from the site when I click the option. I tried turning on and off Firefox settings concerning autoscrolling and smooth scrolling, but nothing solved my problem.

Thank you for your time and energy, everyone!

Issue 1: When using the scroll bar to browse the list of emails, it skips one email (advances too much), so when searching I sometimes cannot find that email. I tried resizing the list of emails to try to match the vertical size, but it does not seem to help.

Issue 2: I cannot customize the vertical size for the list of emails. It won't accept reducing less than about one third of the vertical size of the thunderbird window.

Issue 3: In between the list of emails and the display of the current email content, there is a large area that I find redundant. The 'From', 'To', 'Subject', 'Date' is redundant since the list of emails already show all this information. I cannot find a way to remove, minimize or compact this region. Even the list of buttons could be removed in my case since I mainly use shortcuts and anyway, they are available in the menu or when you right click on an email.

Until recently (shortly before v115, I think) any response (Accept, Decline, etc.) to a meeting invitation was sent from the default email account, regardless of which account the invitation was addressed to. This seemed to be a huge privacy and security issue.

In recent versions, this has been fixed, sort of. When I click "Accept" in response to a *new* meeting invitation that came to an account other than my default account, a window pops up asking which account I want to respond from. (I'm not sure why it doesn't just respond using the account the invitation was addressed to, but at least I have a chance to make the right thing happen.)

However, if a meeting invitation is *updated* (time changed, etc.) and a new response is requested, the option to choose the responding account isn't presented, and it's sent from the default account. This, again, is a privacy and security issue.

Is there any reasonable way to work around this? Is there any plan to fix it?

I would like to know how I can middle click with my scroll wheel to open a bookmark in a new tab, but not be dumped straight into that new tab. I like opening multiple tabs at once before going into them.

I'm using last release Firefox in a fresh install of Debian 12 with KDE. Trying to personalize colors and get a coherent style, I've installed Firefox Color and it worked fine, except for a few GUI elements.

But this is a little more than merely cosmetic. The save (and open) dialog is very different from those provided by the WM. (kwin)

They need double click to navigate through folders and the subfolders don't get grouped before the regular files. Also the appearance is different both to KDE widgets and to Firefox theme.

Is there a way to show "native" dialogs or at least to customize them to be more similar?

TIA,

 Nico

I just upgraded to v115.5.0

When I compose an email message, I can select the "Customize From Address..." on the menu for the from address. If I reply to a message that was sent to an existing identity, I have the option to "Customize From Address..." on the menu for the from address. When I reply to a message sent to one of my extended email addresses, the option to "Customize From Address..." is on the menu, but disabled. Prior to version 115.5.0 this worked and I was able to customize the from address when replying to a message sent to an email address that did not match an existing identity. I use extended email addressing, so I need the option to customize the from address -- is there some way to enable this option again?

I frequently visit Facebook and go through a selection of friend suggestions. I don't have time to go through them at the moment so I prefer to highlight select each one with my mouse and copy and paste them to my email.

But because Facebook I presume is using lazy load, as the slider moves to the next slide of profiles it eventually stops because eventually it gets to where profiles have to load due to me now going to that area of the html elements, and now i hate to wait until they load to then re-hightlight and select each one of a continuous pattern which is very annoying

I'd rather be able to just have the webpage that I'm currently on of facebook to have everything load at once, so I don't have to wait for new profiles in the selection to load, when I scroll, or press a button for next list

The image I provided will visually show what I mean I get a selection list of suggested profiles to befriend on Facebook but eventually of either clicking on the right arrow button to slide over to next list to next or by highlight selecting eventually the sliding to next list stops due to the next list of profiles not loaded yet

The second image will show what was once white because it hasn't loaded yet now has

But thats just it I don't want to wait and have to scroll, or click a button and wait for the next batch of elements in which this case is image and link of their picture and name.

I want all those elements to load at once! So I don't have to wait for it to load after I reach that destination on the HTML.

Javascript. Firefox. HTML.Extension?

Whatever you can suggest please wither it be adding a script, changing something of firefox, doing something of html, or adding an extension?

I've attached two screenshots of the same website in Firefox Android, where I have long-pressed on an image in order to share it with another app (e.g. Signal, Fastmail). The website in question is my self-hosted PhotoPrism instance which I am trying to use as a replacement for Google Photos.

As you can see, in one of the screenshots, most of the options are missing, including sharing with another app. That screenshot is of the website installed on my home screen as a PWA (Progressive Web App). It seems that it is not possible to use the Android "share" functionality for images inside a PWA. Is this correct? If so, is there any workaround?

I would love to be able to use a PWA for PhotoPrism because having to navigate manually to my photos app in a browser is clunky, but if I am unable to share photos out, then I don't think I'll be able to use the PWA.

Hi, I'm running ... Firefox 120.0? On a US Samsung Galaxy S22 running Android 14 and One UI 6.0.

Korean characters used to display in a uniform font but after a recent phone update, I now get different fonts (with greatly decreased readability). I can't find any font options in the Firefox app and the only thing language-related is what language Firefox menus are in. I also can't find any relevant font options in the phone settings either - can someone help?

Hello,

I played a while with the developer tools for thunderbird but up until now I'm not able to change anything for the message pane.

I would like to tweak the background color and some margins but even if I put a change on the element the change is completely ignored/overwritten. Google was not able to point me in the right direction either...

How can I do this? Or why seems this not to be possible? A link to a working solution/tutorial would be much appreciated.

Regards

I have set up my junk mail controls as described in the support literature, and while junk messages reliably have the red junk tag set, they still appear in my in box(s), rather than going directly to the junk folder as I intend. If I manually (re)mark them as junk then they do immediately go into the junk folder. How can I make them go directly to the junk folder rather than to the inbox? My email accounts are also accessed by my iPhone via Mail (since there is no iPhone Thunderbird app). Could this be related to my problem?
