My Thunderbird recently updated itself to 128.2.0esr (32-bit). Right after that, my Gmail account in Thunderbird started a process of downloading messages into the Important Mail folder or All Mail and other folders. Thousands of them. It creeps along pausing occasionally, freezing my mail app, and can't do anything until it does whatever, then continues for a minute or two normally before freezing up again. It's possible most of the time to do something while it's downloading-- it halts then catches up and halts again in only a few seconds. Almost impossible to compose a message or read messages while it's downloading. Sometimes, if you click on something when it halts, it says "Thunderbird not responding" turns faded and crashes or have to go into task manager and end the process to get out of it. Right now, my mail is downloading with a total Important Mail quantity of (it reports now) 5787 messages. That quantity changes each time. I've left the mailer open just sitting there hoping it might finish whatever it needs to do, and then I can go about business without the freezing. But then it starts downloading mail again. Now it's switched over and doing it in All Mail-- 20,000 of those, and flipping between Sent Mail and then back to Important... The only workaround I've found is when it starts that activity, close the mailer and reopen it and then I have at least a few minutes to read or compose mail before it starts up and bollixes activity, and I have to close down and reopen to continue. I can find NO setting to adjust or turn this "feature" off. I have to go use the actual Gmail in a browser, which I hate, to get anything done. I've used Thunderbird since it first came out, even back to when it was Netscape mail before going independent as Mozilla and prefer to use it but can't with this downloading madness.

If I change to a new program running under Firefox, it does not respond until I delete the previously used Firefox. This is really annoying and also causes other problems. How can this be eliminated or disabled? ishaw@afrihost.co.za

My Firefox keeps crashing it starts up okay, but crashes when I try to open a window, or search, or go to a website. It will continue to crash - below is a copy of the crash report

Lightening calendar's "week" view does not display Friday and Saturday because the column width for the other days of the week is too wide for Fri and Sat to fit on the screen. When does Mozilla plan to fix this?

Since switching to 128.2 ESR, my GMX email website no longer works EXCEPT in Private Windows, while the OneTab Extension ONLY works in Private Windows. My two most frequently used apps, that I have opened and pinned all the time, won't work in same window type. This renders Firefox nearly useless to me. Can you help?

Windows 11 Pro (64bit) Firefox 128.2.0 ESR

Yesterday I have updated tp macOS 15. Sine then I have trupuble displaying any webpages in Firefox 130. Th econnection just times out. Any other browser such as Brave, Safari, Home, Edge are still working as before teh update. How to fix this please?

On my Mac with current OS X update, Firefox is great except for one website: kaiserpermanente.org - it will not respond. Attached is a copy of the Firefox response page when I try to login, or ask about cookies, or anything besides their home page. PS, everything works perfectly on my i-phone.

Thanks.

Why is Firefox Browser no longer an acceptable browser to access some on-line accounts? Business entities are no longer recognizing Firefox. When utilizing another browser connectivity is no issue.

When I go to bcbsm.com and look at my EOB's...it is a pdf and a lot of information is missing, but if I switch browsers (Chrome) all the information appears. How can I fix this?

Lately I have been having some real problems with Firefox. PG&E (Pacific Gas & Electric) does not support Firefox (I get a message telling me that Firefox is not a supported browser and I need to use Chrome, Edge. I also am having problems with sites like Petsmart where I keep getting logged off and nothing actually ends up in my cart. I don't like Chrome and I won't use Edge under any circumstances. What is the problem that these sites are having with Firefox? I have been using Firefox from it's first being offered (yes I'm that old) and I don't want to change. I use DuckDuckGo with both Firefox and Chrome so I'm reasonably certain that the issues I am experiencing are Firefox issues. I have tried turning off the add blocking extensions and even my firewall but that hasn't helped. I get the feeling that these sites (and others) are part of an effort to get rid of Firefox in favor of the 2 giants Google and Microsoft. Am I just paranoid or what?

I use Windows 10, McAfee Security software, Firefox browser with DuckDuckGo search engine. I also use Chrome browser with DuckDuckGo search engine. Everything works fine with Chrome.

I have used Evernote web clipper for years and Firefox says I am still connected, but its icon has disappeared from my menu bar and I have been unable to recover it.
