Am having a strange issue with adding a GMAIL account.

I had some issues with my account, and removed all email accounts from thunderbird, and moved the profiles to a separate hard drive, in order to keep space on my normally used hard drive.

I go to add my GMAIL account, enter the password, etc, then click on "done" as all the details are pulling through

Then thunderbird opens a new window with gmail confirmation in it, but as soon as I click next/ok there, I get error 500, that's all we know.

I thought at first, it was a gmail error, but I can easily add gmail to outlook, so assume it's a error/old date in thunderbird that's causing the issue.

Any thoughts on the issue?

"500. That’s an error.

There was an error. Please try again later. That’s all we know."

I have Thunderbird 91 installed and working on a MacBook Pro. Currently running OS Mojave, but will be updating that shortly to accommodate other software needs. That update will obsolete my Outlook app (Outlook for Mac 2011, v14.7.7) I have an unfortunate number of saved emails that I need to migrate to TB for future access. I have exported those to an .olm file, but TB doesn't recognize it, and neither does Apple Mail as an intermediate step to a mailbox file (sorry, I don't know the suffix). Guidance appreciated, otherwise I just have to s**k it up and spring for a new version of MS 365 to get a new version of Outlook.

So I am trying to download some large files, but the server I am downloading from are extremely slow. My place doesnt have stable internet connection and during my download, almost 100% of the time, it fails. Now there is a "Try again" button that can continue downloading the file in firefox after the connection is back. When I press the button, it resumes the download from where it was, but I noticed that the files are not downloaded correctly. The file size is noticeably smaller than what it should be, and it is non-functional. My phone uses android 11 custom rom (lineage), but the same issue is also present on an older, stock anroid phone I have. This issue has been present for at least half a year and I dont know a solution. Can anyone suggest a solution?

We are just migrating to Thunderbird from Outlook, so quite new to Thunderbird... I have recreated an Outlook "rule", as a filter in TB to forward emails from a specific sender to a gmail address. The filter works fine on most of the mails, but fails on one with the error message:

"The mail server responded:  Syntax error - line too long. "

However, the same mail can be forwarded from the inbox with a manual forward. What is the difference between the "Forward Message to" action in a filter -and- a right click and forward to the same mail item in the inbox? ...or does anyone have any other comments? The mail item that fails is an HTML mail of 178KB.

Will it be OK to upgrade my Firefox browser from Rel 72 to latest Rel 100 in one step ? OS is Mac OS X Monterrey 12.3..1 Or should I do 1 or more intermediate upgrades to be safe ?

FWIW, I've had enough problems upgrading from OSx Mojave to Monterrey. I am leery of the huge jump from FF 72 to 100.

All advice most welcome.

I have searched the help here and have noted that a few other people have asked the same question without receiving a response.

However I might as well try!

I have two profiles I want to merge into one so that the end user will open their email and have all their emails in the one place in thunderbird. Its the same user who was using Thunderbird on two devices so there are two profiles to be merged onto the one device.

I have tried the import-export tools etc but they didn't seem to work.

I have installed the old profile into the same location as the existing profile on the new device and can of course access it by changing the default location in the server settings. The older emails are there. However what I want to achieve is that the end user will have all the emails from both profiles visible within the one inbox o the newer device.

How can I achieve this?

Any constructive suggestions would be most welcome.

I've been seeing suspicious .htm files appear in "downloads" when I hadn't requested any downloads. When I try to open the file, it always appears blank. Once I rebooted without deleting the file, and my system acted like it had a virus. I rebooted in Safe Mode and reverted to a restore point, then everything was fine. But I'm still seeing those suspicious files appearing, at least once per day. How do I stop them?

Hi,

I looking to get Firefox to open up a PDF in the browser WITHOUT downloading the file. The reason for this is because I want to bookmark the PDF allowing access to an up-to-date version of a document.

I have selected the option to ask where to the save file in the settings. I have also set the application settings for PDF to 'always ask'. So, when I open the link, I get a window prompt asking me to select 1 of 3 options: view in Firefox, view in selected application, or save. I select view in Firefox and it still downloads and opens the file.

I definitely know Firefox used to open up PDFs AS links because I have some bookmarked. Any suggestions on why this is and how to fix would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

I use to click on PDF files and they would open and not download to my download folder. Well now every time i click on a PDF file it downloads it. I have tried every option in settings/general/apps and they still download in a folder. So I thought I would try MS edge and it does the same thing. Is it not the browser and was it in a MS update? It has never done this before. I don't want all these PDF files downloaded!

I have two identical computers running Firefox on Windows 7. No serious issues for 3 years or longer.

Just recently, version 100 showed "Unknown Source" instead of the normal UAC authorization window which lists mozilla.org as the source.

The 100.0.1 update showed the same warning.

This only occurred on one of the computers. The other one does not show the warning.

Firefox worked fine after doing the downloads anyway, but the "Unknown Source" is not right and makes the user think security is being compromised.
