I was on a teams meeting because I wanted to do a study session with someone on another country. As part of the homework I needed to do, I needed to listen to some audio. I changed my windows audio devices to output through the Communications device for the headset. Then I played the audio on a tab. The audio played for a few seconds before stopping again.

I understand that this is behaviour intended to let you take a call or meeting without having to manually pause any open tabs you might not have at hand, but I would like Firefox to understand I really want that audio to play without thinking it knows better. Is there any way to disable this behavior?

Dear support, I have set up a Nextcloud with a calendar that is already synchronizing via DAVx5 to my mobile phone via a dyn-dns-domain. Also the DAV connection to Thunderbird works if I use my LAN IP to contact the (local) nextcloud server.

However, if I want to use the dyn-dns-domain (that works with DAVx5 on my mobile phone), I get error 401. Via e.g. Firefox I can log on to the nextcloud via the dyn-dns-domain as well without issues. Nextcloud is set up as part of a docker service behind a SWAG reverse proxy (that is bypassed when using the LAN IP approach as that goes directly to the Nextcloud docker container), but as the configuration works with the DAVx5 on my mobile phone, I am not sure how Thunderbird would try to get access any different. Is there a way in Thunderbird to see details on the exchange to the server to see where the issue comes from? That might at least provide some more information what could be the difference between DAVx5 and Thunderbird. Thanks for any hint on how I can identify the problem.

I've always been able to type a new web address directly into my browser bar. Firefox no longer allows me to do that. It reverts back to the original address, even when opening a new tab to start over. I also can no longer type into the Google search box. It tries to take me to the browser bar instead, and then I can't go anywhere. Help please!

This is essentially the same problem as https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1430726 . I am running 128.1.0esr, and the problem surfaced recently. I installed 128.0.1esr (replacing 115.13.0) on July 31. and the problem might have been re-introduced there. I have not researched the version numbers, so I do not know why I went from 115.13.0 to 118.0.1esr.

Here is the problem. I want to see all of the mails with a certain string in the sender field. After I have typed the first character in the filter field, Thunderbird goes into a "Not Responding" state, and I see a spinning blue circle. After I have entered the entire string, it takes a while before TB becomes responsive. When TB becomes responsive, I can delete all of the selected messages (in less than a second). But when I then remove or change the string, TB takes a lot of time before becoming responsive again. Wayne Mery posted at the end of that other archived thread "115.9.0 has a patch related to quick filters which may help." Has that patch somehow been regressed? Thanks.

Hi.

Why every time i run thunderbird and if i leave it open too often it bring me the error message for all hotmail/outlook mail accounts i have???

What the heck is happening and how i can solve this?

I tried to open a 'Punchbowl evite' from a friend, but was required to 'log into my email server again through the evite portal.' RED FLAG. I (stupidly) did, or tried to. The evite never opened, but the friend who appeared to have sent it said her email had been hacked and her whole address book had been receiving these 'Punchbowl evites.' This is an infection or phishing, which has disabled my Thunderbird. Even when I try to read an old AOL email already downloaded to my computer by Thunderbird, this fake AOL log-in page pops up, but at the top it says 'https://tsdtocl.com/'. I tried changing my direct AOL password. I tried blocking this website on Google Chrome using the 'Block Site' extension. Neither had any effect. Thunderbird is still locked out of my AOL, and the fake AOL website keeps popping up.

I would appreciate any advice you can offer.

2 DAYS AGO I got an XUL error notice in my UP TO DATE Firefox. Tried turning on or off at times hours apart no use.

Getting by with other browsers in the meantime. But today At about 1:40 PM CDLST 15 August 2024

my computer locked up completely. Several dialog boxes stacked up and mouse and keyboard were ineffective it gave a virus name which I did not write down and a purported Microsoft number to call but I ignored it. Turned off my computer turned on and ran scan with Malwarebytes software NO INDICATION OF INCIDENT

The help page advice for XUL does not have the assurance NOTED AT BOTTOM.

IS THE FOLLOWING TRUE FOR ALL REMEDIES INVOLVING UNINSTALLING AND REINSTALLING FIREFOX? INCLUDING XUL ERRORS?

ASSURANCE The solution is to remove the Firefox program and then reinstall Firefox. (This will not remove your passwords, bookmarks or other user data and settings which are stored in a separate profiles folder.)

Lately I have been having low memory warnings, but still have some things I can dump to make room.

When trying to load Firefox an error message pops up saying Error: Platform Version "129.0.1" is not compatible with minVersion >= 129.0 maxVersion <= 129.0

HELP

I have been using TBird for many years, but only for email. I have about 15,000 emails and an 18 GB profile. If I start using TB for calendar events and tasks, will that substantially increase the profile size and does that become an unwieldy folder to maintain in terms of errors occurring with time, and in terms of transferring it to a second PC?

Provide an option in global settings, to use a SINGLE, MASTER "MsgFilterRules.dat" file that applies to ALL accounts vs one for each account.

My self - and MANY other users - (based upon forums) have been attempting to create a single, consolitated .dat file, then paste it into each accounts Profile sub-directory. One issue is that periodically a user must repeat the process due to additional filters created over time, but only in its relative account.

Hi there, hope your day is going well!

My question is fairly simple, I'm just wondering, to get the "best bang for my buck" when it comes to using the correct release of a Mozilla product, more specifically in my case...

1. Numbered list item Firefox
2. Numbered list item Thunderbird
3. Numbered list item Whether or not the ABOUT:CONFIG Settings menu works from the possible choices, or if one version or release.

For the best possible and most optimal usage of all the ABOUT:CONFIG settings should I use the Latest Nightly, just the Beta 130.0b5 (64-bit) or a Non Beta version, possibly the Canadian English Language release of the latest Firefox release would be o.k.? Some time back I thought I heard or was under the impression that certain ABOUT:CONFIG settings are accessible in some versions\releases of Firefox, but not in others and most likely more settings were going to end yup that way, but also remember reading that certain releases would keep ALL the accessible settings in ABOUT:CONFIG regardless of other releases "ditching" or "dropping" certain settings from there, can anyone clarify which version\release allows what and which one doesn't this or that? i remember hearing or reading that one of these settings that wouldn't be available in Firefox and the ABOUT:CONFIG settings menu anymore would be general.useragent.override and for people who like setting per site custom useragent strings, the ever popular general.useragent.override.www.SITE_NAME_HERE.COM.

Thanks ever so much for your time for helping me today! I look forward to yours and the answers and suggestions of others here on Please search & read the forums and past questions to see if your very question has already been asked & if a solution was found or not.

AND A BIG THANKYOU AND SHOUTOUT to the Volunteers at Mozilla for your service in being a Volunteer to answer & help people, Volunteering is the key to helping others on a global scale in many facets of the things we take for granted every day, like just Volunteering to hand out cups of hot soup for your local soup kitchen or soup wagon that sets up all over the city at preset locations, you could be the guy that ladles out the soup, or the girl who gives pamphlets out at local city crisis centers or shelters, yes, even at the Y.M.C.A., and it really is kinda NOT fun to stay there, so don't really take the song to heart, in such places there are alot of disinfranchised folks who are at their final few inches on their "I can't take much more of this" meter, you can be the one who brightens that person's day!

 Back to Mozilla, Firefox, Thunderbird and the rest, here on Gilligan's isl.... no wait, that's something else, disregard that, back to Mozilla... not everyone knows what an ABOUT:CONFIG is, or how to set their Start Page in Thunderbird, I've been thinking about volunteering here on Mozilla, to possibly write some sort of help texts, a column (That's IF, the "powers that be" will let me?) maybe or just answer questions, everyone who has a working knowledge of what Mozilla is about, the type of questions their products bring forth and a little bit of time to spare should definately look it up, read about the volunteer positions, it's great experience, you can find it Click here to read more or possibly join the Mozilla Volunteer team today! here if you, the guy, gal or both together in one, has some time and a little knowledge, share it with your fellow humans! 

Hello!

I have tried every recommendation I have found to stop the very annoying picture in picture feature in YouTube: 1. Unchecking the Enable picture-in-picture video controls option on the Firefox settings 2. Typing about:config in the address bar and press Enter, searching for "media.videocontrols.picture-in-picture.enabled" and setting it to false.

When I am watching a video on a play list and I want to get out of it and I press the back arrow on the browser tab, I get the annoying pop PIP video. Is there a way to totally disable this PIP feature?

Thanks

Hello. I want to check the box for "Open previous windows and tabs," but it is grayed out so I cannot check it. Why is this not available to me? Please fix for me.

I've been using the same web hosting and email service for over 20 years -- a long time such that I've been on their "legacy" server for a number of years now. I've hesitated to switch to a new service, because they said they are not able to transfer my old emails to the new account.

I called them a couple of days ago on a different issue, and they advised me to migrate my account to a new service, promising that they now have the means to transfer my old emails. Thankfully I asked them to hold off, because I later got an email from their "escalated support team" that apparently I would need to backup all my email content, as it will not be transferred if I migrate to a new service.

My question is: How do I backup my emails so that they are still accessible if I switch to a new email hosting service? I am not at all tech savvy so any help would be most appreciated!

I chose to use Firefox a few months ago after starting to have problems with Chrome. At first it was great, no problems. Then just the other day, it showed it was doing a software update. OK, no big problem right. I thought. This morning I tried to go into a favorite web sit. It is were I get my main news from also, but this time I got a message showing that Cloudflare was blocking the channel, then said it was an error but to try back later. It just kept doing this. What is up with this. I won't accept this. I want this cloudflare disabled. You say it is your software for protecting your software. If I want my computer protected, I'll make the decision as to how it is protected. I want cloudflare removed or I'll find another web browser.
