Will this work: 1. uninstall TB 2. Install TB and let it automatically set up my five (5) Hotmail email addresses using oauth2 3. Import my TB profile OR copy my profile folder (with all emails & address books) into new installation and still have oauth2 in server settings? OR will it revert back to old non oauth2 server settings?

Thanks in advance & God Bless

Dear all,

For some time now my Firefox browser is crashing while I use it. Then a loop starts where a window appear with buttons offering to Restart or Close Firefox but whichever I choose it takes several sets of open/crash to stabilize when in the end if offers to either open it again, or refresh Firefox. I don't wan to refresh because I have tens of tabs that I want to save. But I can't because OneTab, along with all other extensions, is being disabled after the restarts.

I have a crash ID of one of the latest occurrences of this phenomena: f6ef62ad-b072-46b8-8bc8-0d3ca0240708

Please advise!

Good morning. I have been unable to receive e-mails since 30/05/2024. Has the fact that I received an e-mail message from "Mail@voice" <mboudreaux@firmgroupagency.com> on 31/05/2024, got to do with the problem. I would be grateful could help solve the problem. Thank you. Emyr Davies.

Thanks for the help with the screenshots David. Here are the 3 screenshots 1.) Error message on bottom right. 2 & 3) Incoming and outgoing server settings. Looking forward to solving this issue!

My old 'Legion' laptop had my (I'd guess) open tabs history from late June! I now have a new laptop, and I logged into Firefox, and didn't see all history from June. I need those 'previous' sessions... Where are They??

I keep getting error messages like below..... up to 50 a day where my Thunderbird is not syncing with my hotmail email. I can not force it but just wait until it happens to automatically sync. It keeps getting worse every week and I just got a notice from Microsoft that they will no longer accept third party programs that do not support modern authentication after September 16. I love my Thunderbird. What can I do to ensure access to my hotmail with Thunderbird?

I subscribed to an educational series that includes several kinds of presentation, including MP3, PDF, and video. The videos do not work. Not at all. I was directed to try a different browser, which I did: microsoft edge. The videos play using that browser.

I MUCH prefer to use Firefox -- do not like anything microsoft, but here we are, trapped in bill gates' monopoly.

I looked at "settings" but was not able to see anything there I thought would allow these videos to play in firefox. Be advised, I am NOT a computer person, so anything you might suggest, please be very literal, specific and define any acronyms -- do not assume I know anything about this stuff, because I don't -- I do not speak computer.

Again, I MUCH prefer to use firefox so I am hoping you can help me to watch these videos in firefox. The website is Goodness Lover (weird name, I know) it deals with diet, microbiome research etc.

thank you, Rick McBride wopela@earthlink.net

I'm old, so having the "header" in my Private Search bar be in dark mode is very difficult. I've done searches on the subject and noted there are other people with visual challenges with the same issue.

I tried to go to Settings to change it, but it wouldn't let me change from "automatic" to "light mode". It was blocked!

Please help as I really, really prefer to do private searches for items relating to my medical issued. It is tough enough to be old, I don't need the whole internet gawking at searches for adult diapers, etc.

Thanks Haze Kompelin

I've lost my email program dictionary at last auto update. I need to delete program and reload but I don't want to loose my email folders. By deleting program, will this effect my email folders? Thanks

Why don't you have a version that once you push it out, you just leave it alone, except for any serious security updates. I, and I'm sure many others, have very simple needs in an email client, and all the added whiz-bang features serve to only make it harder to use for many of us. Or, alternatively, make it modular, start out with the basic client, and then allow users to add any features they feel would be useful for them, instead o having a bloated application that 90% of goes unused.

Message from Microsoft using Thunderbird. What do I need to do? Thanks

Update your sign-in technology before September 16th, 2024 to maintain email access.

The safety and security of your information is top priority for Microsoft. To help keep your account secure, Microsoft will no longer support the use of third-party email and calendar apps which ask you to sign in with only your Microsoft Account username and password. To keep you safe you will need to use a mail or calendar app which supports Microsoft’s modern authentication methods. If you do not act, your third-party email apps will no longer be able to access your Outlook.com, Hotmail or Live.com email address on September 16th.

What do you need to do?

If you are receiving this email, you are currently using an email or calendar app that uses a less secure authentication method to connect to your Outlook.com email account. You will need to upgrade your third-party mail and calendar app to a version which supports modern authentication methods.

Microsoft provides free versions of Outlook for your PC, Mac, iOS, and Android devices which can be easily downloaded and connect to your email account. Using an updated version of an Outlook application will ensure you are connecting in the most secure way.

How can you set up your Gmail, Apple Mail, or other third-party mail application?

Various non-Microsoft applications will have their own steps for connecting to your Outlook.com email account using modern authentication methods. See our help article - Modern Authentication Methods now needed to continue syncing Outlook Email in non-Microsoft email apps. However, you may need to contact the creators of those applications to provide you with instructions. In many cases, simply removing and re-adding your account with the latest version of that application will configure it to use modern authentication methods.

I'd mistakenly said that the Inbox's other emails are hidden when I click the X on the tab of an open email; that was wrong; they disappear when I press Del when viewing the tab of an open email. Dave

Since you sent me an email asking if I have any questions, I'll try a third time with my question. Frequently, when I close an email--either by selecting it in the Inbox and then pressing Del, or by clicking the X on the tab of an open email, the remaining emails in the Inbox disappear for awhile (progress in re-displaying them is shown by thermometer at lower right). However if I click another folder, say Drafts, and then re-click the Inbox, all are instantly visible--except of course for the one I wanted deleted.

Any thoughts?

Hi all,

I'm writing an email reply and wanted to answer questions in a red font. So, my top line reply was "see below in red" and then I wanted to type Yes or No in red after each question. I couldn't even copy and paste from a word document with the font in red.

In Thunderbird, I clicked on the color checker, typed in FF0000 for the color code and clicked yes. Then the color selecter boxes on the menu went right back to white.

Any ideas?

Hi there! How can I delete the "go back one page shortcut"? Every time I side-scroll while holding option I go back and this is interfering with another web-app.

Thanks!

Adrian.

So, I've switched to Firefox as my main browser (I was using it before, but as a secondary option) and I've spotted this native extension called Pocket.

When I pressed it, I was on YouTube Music already, so it automatically saved that url. Now, the reason of contacting support is more of concern than anything. When I pressed it, a weird message has been attached to it, so I am wondering why, as it is confusing to say the least. I've attached a screenshot with the saves, which also has the weird message and YouTube for comparison next to it.

Thanks.

When Firefox opens up the address is typed in at top left in small print. The center bar is there, open, but if you click on it, while the cursor blinks, when you type in an address nothing appears as it does with Google Chrome which we have replaced with Firefox. My wife finds the top left print too small and wants me to go back to Google Chrome where she can read what she has entered. I cannot find anything, anywhere which will allow her to do this. We use Thunderbird and have made a few donations over the years. Hope you can help.

It must have been one of those nutty "...something I did" things that made a second account identity appear one day. I use a Unified Folders mode exclusively, and the subject account is my primary account (identical to the first Unified listing), but some action on my part made it pop up below as well, just above 'Local Folders.' The only subfolder under this redundant appearance is 'Templates,' which is empty. The unwanted appearance starts out in a blue font, but turns black (as shown below) once the 'Templates' folder is clicked on. Can I get rid of this somehow?
