All my email accounts worked until 9.30 pm 8/22/24

When I went on the computer on this morning, 8/23/24 I got the following message:

Unable to connect

An error occurred during a connection to localhost.

   The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
   If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer’s network connection.
   If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Thunderbird is permitted to access the web.

I cannot send or receive email from Thunderbird. I turned off and on the computer, I'm set at imap, port 993 and OAuth2. I don't know what else to do. FireFox works fine.

Thanks for any help. (please reply to akapugs@ yahoo.com. That email is working, as it is not connected to Thunderbird)

I have numerous 1and1 domain IMAP based email addresses and use Thunderbird as main email program to retrieve and review my emails. However, some of the accounts setup in Thunderbird which have IMAP based servers are removing/deleting the email from the server on syncing. Its really frustrating on why some are doing this and the other do not.

I don't want ANY of my IMPA email servers having emails deleting, its why I use IMPA so I can review the emails on phone, tablet or via WebUI when away from home.

Thunderbird version is 115.14.0 (64-bit)

Please can you advise how I can fix this?

After running scannow and chkdisk on my Win 11 laptop, the fonts for menus and toolbars in Firefox (not for web pages) is unreadably small (about 6pt). I have tried adjusting layout.css.devPixelsPerPx, ui.textScaleFactor, and browser.display.os-zoom-behavior to recommended valus as well as above or below values. So far, no help. Please advise.

Hy ! The version of TB y run is 128.1.0esr (32 bits) under Windows 10. I am a user since 2005. Under "disk space in "local folders", I have (translated) " never delete messages"

While seaching old messages, I just discovered that, although theses messages appear in the list of messages of local folders, there is a lot of theses local folders where, when I click on a message in the list, a window opens whith an empty content.

This does not occur the same way for all the folders : for example, in one of them, the messages dated 2005 do not open (they appear in an empty window), while messages dated 2006 and earlier open as usual. Other example, in another folder, containing messages dated 2008 to 2010, not any opens in another way than an empty window.

I have tried to ask my question in the mozilla forum the 15 th august, but no answer. That is why I try on this site. I have translated here the question I posted on the mozilla forum in French, my native langage, and I hope it will be understandable ...

==> Do you have an idea of why this happens and what I should do see again the content of these precious old messages ( my genealogy and others)

When i open uppercode in browser Firefox and push the hyperlink, Thunderbird start correctly a new message with content (subject and body). When i receive uppercode as message in Thunderbird and push the hyperlink, Thunderbird open an empty window (and from now all messages are empty). After restart Thunderbird all messages are visible again. Is it a bug?

I am running Thunderbird Desktop Version 128.1.1esr | Released August 21, 2024 with Windows 11 Home 23H2

I have no trouble to log in to outlook.com but thunderbird says its the wrong password, Ihave changed it 3 times and it still says wrong password, I like thunderbird but don't understsnd what is wrong at the moment.

Hello! When entering some (in tis case financial: https://www.nordnet.se/se) sites the time shown are exactly 2hours behind the system time. If system time is 11:15 (correct time zone in Sweden) the time shown on the site is 09:15. This is probably something that has to do with an update of Firefox. I have automatic update to Firefox but the problem has been there for some months although I have not been able to recognice it until the recent week. I have tried a "clean" new install of Firefox to a new directory with no import of bookmarks or anything but the problem is exactly the same. For your information I have tried a clean install of Duckduckgo browser which do not suffer this problem. But I want to keep with Firefox which I have used since at least 15years. I guess there is a "timestamp" or samething that have gone wrong, but should be easy to correct if you just know where to look. Best regards /Gunnar

I accidentally activated the OneDrive sync. After the mail directory were uploaded to the OneDrive cloud, thunderbird mail can only see each new mail title, but I cannot open these mails after I double click into them. It will just come back as directory and file not found. In other words, the paths are valid, but I can only see title without the preview nor the content of the emails.

File not found The file mailbox:///C:/Users/XXXXXX/MozillaMail/xxxxxx/Inbox?number=2704 cannot be found. Please check the location and try again.

Any help is welcome and appreciated, thank you in advance.

Firefox 129.0 (64bit) - Windows 10 (with current updates)

Sometimes (except when I'm demonstrating the problem of course) a Google search simply hangs. In the search field (next to the shield & lock) the website for the search appears, eg https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=how+secure+are+android+phones or https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=nsw+service+parking+meter+app there is no other response and no activity in bottom left corner of the window.

Simply clearing history (history, cookies, cached files, but not site settings) fixes the problem and the search can then be repeated and new searches done until the next time, when it's a case of rinse & repeat. No other action is required, which would seem to suggest that the problem isn't elsewhere.

This problem affects both my wife's and my PC (same configs), and has for several weeks, sorry can't be more precise as to when it started.

Thanks, Mike

As noted by others about recently-prior versions of Firefox, version 129 ALSO fails to play videos (on Amazon Prime) at HD even though other browsers, Chrome and Edge as examples, work perfectly well. This problem MAY have started with a fairly recent version of Firefox (like 127 or 128). See the post right here by another user, earlier Firefox version, with the EXACT same problem:

The address bar is driving me crazy tbh. I want to search for something from it and it works most of the times but doesn't some other times, and I don't know why. I did try to refresh firefox after you click the helper software to uninstall it, but it still doesn't work all the times, and I also tried this (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1337970), yet it still doesn't. I might try to uninstall and install it again but is there anything else I can do if it still doesn't work?

Recently MalwareBytes has been flagging, MANY times a day, an attempt by Firefox 129.0.2 to go to CHHIMI.com. The message from MalwareBytes says it is being "blocked due to Trojan". This is an "outbound" type from C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe.

The only info I have been able to find about CHHIMI is that it is a very new website that does not use HTTPS validation. Allegedly has something to do with gaming. The only "gaming" I do is an occasional bout with an on-board (not on-line) Solitare.

So, the fundamental question I have is why is FireFox routing to CHHIMI.com and how do I stop it?

For the 2nd time my FF browser and shortcut stopped working and I had to re-install it. I haven't done anything; this happened 2x in the last month. I've run a thorough HP Wolf Security scan and nothing comes up. What gives?

Hi there,

I'm new here so please bear with me if I've posted in the wrong place or have missed something obvious.

I running Windows 10, fully updated, on a laptop. I have been using Firefox browser now for many years, suits my needs and avoid's using Goolges Chrome. My Firefox was updated a in the last few days and it shows as up to date on Version 129.0.1 64bit.

I noticed late last night that when opening a fresh window and enter a search term in either the address bar or the Google search bar, my usual choice of search engine, I hit return and nothing happens. Any text I've input disappears totally. Not at all sure what's going on but have found that if I open a new private window Firefow will act as I'd expect without any issues.

I have two other browsers on my laptop, Edge and also Avast's own offering which both work as expected when I enter a search term. Have never experienced this before with the exception of years ago when malware protection wasn't great. It almost seems as though something is just stopping Firefox from searching anything I enter. I can use the bookmarks just fine and then everything works as usual.

Yesterday I thought that maybe following the new windows culmulative updates I was offered and apparently installed just fine, that I needed to restart which a tried and I thought it had cured the issue. Seems that it hasn't and still having the same issue.

Any idea's or thought's on what the cause of this is?

I have Firefox 129.0.1 on a Windows 11 laptop.

The browser has told me very recently that I soon won't be able to read emails on the browser.

Can anyone please explain what this is all about and what I need to do to continuing being able to read emails on Firefox ?

Thanks.
