Everytime I try to upload a file to my desktop, Firefox gives me the message File Uploader Not Responding then gives me the option to close or wait. if I wait, nothing changes.

Why am I NOT able to LOGIN to FIREFOX or PRIVATE BROWSER? I was able to login this morning now it's afternoon & I am trying to LOGIN and nothing is happing. Am using the latest version of FIREFOX.....so what's happening?

Hi,

As the title says, Firefox throws "We can’t connect to the server at m.imdb.com." error every time I try to open a page while everything else works like Chrome, Edge and when I ping via command prompt I get replies and other applications. (Win 10 64-bit with latest Firefox)

I think it's a system-wide problem but I can't figure out where. I was under the impression that it's a DNS problem but it doesn't even open IP addresses like 192.168.1.1 and it doesn't open instantly, no matter it's Google.com or my router IP, instant error message.

I tried everything I could find which are:

• Refresh, clean re-install with deleting profile directory
• clearing cache and data
• Toggling these in about:config: network.http.http3.enabled, network.dns.disableIPv6, network.dns.disablePrefetch
• Enabling/disabling my adapter
• Running a couple commands:

   ipconfig /flushdns
   ipconfig /registerdns
   ipconfig /release
   ipconfig /renew

   netsh int ip reset resetlog.txt
   netsh winsock reset catalog
   netsh int ipv4 reset reset.log
   netsh int ipv6 reset reset.log

• Setting proxy to None
• Restarting with Troubleshoot Mode (add-ons disabled)
• Removing Firefox entry from Windows Firewall. (I haven't installed any Firewall and Anti-Virus)
• WIndows's Network Reset
• Rebooting machine and router

I'm sure there are more, these are all I can remember now.

This happened some months ago but can't seem to remember how I fixed it.

The only way it opens sites is with a VPN that sets a system proxy and setting Firefox's proxy to "Use System Proxy Settings".

Cheers

Three days ago Firefox froze and wouldn't allow me to do anything. I quit and then Firefox would not open. Went back to Safari and download the latest version of Firefox, and installed it. It started by saying that Firefox was already running (it wasn't) so I forced it to quit. Installed and asked it to replace the existing version. Then I tried to run it and it told me that it was already running!!!

Short of deleting the whole application and starting again - losing bookmarks, passwords, etc. - what else can I do?

/edit: moved thread from Firefox for iOS (for iPhone/iPad) to Firefox as this both sounds like desktop version and you put in "Mac Ventura v13" in system details on right so you have macOS.

My sister-in-law has been sending me a daily email for 15 years, and it has always gone to my inbox. Now, all of a sudden, it is going to Junk (as are a number of other regular correspondents). I have been marking her email as Not Junk for a month now, and it's still going to Junk. I understand that Thunderbird "learns," but how long does the lesson take?

I would like to disable threaded view on all folders and subfolders. How can I do that without having to manually change the view settings for every single folder and subfolder?

I have had a problem with duplicate emails over the past 2 weeks and today a new problem started. After trying yet another Repair of my Inbox, TB crashed. I requested a restart which it did. Once it had restarted, it promptly crashed again. It repeated this 5 or 6 times when I decided to uninstall TB and reinstall it. But it did not help. As soon as I started TB again it began to populate my Inbox with 10s of thousands of duplicate emails and then it crashed! I really need to read my email and I'm considering an alternate program. Can someone provide some guidance? Thanks!

Hello,

I hope this is the right place to post about this issue.

Just installed Thunderbird Beta 112.0b3 (64-bit) a couple of days ago, getting the feel of this one and doing OK, but found an issue.

Buttons (screenshot supplied) are not working (not taking me anywhere) except for the calendar one, which works OK

Any feedback or instructions to correct this would be appreciated.

Regards, Jay

Provide a method to restore my local email folders. If possible, let me return to the previous version. I have found both Firefox and Thunderbird to useful in the past, but this update destroys access to a lot of information AND trust in the products. Did you hire a bunch if MIcrosoft managers?

I have had the same issues with TB freezing and locking up my PC that many here have had. For me, this has now gone on for almost 3 years. I have done everything I can think of, and everything I have read about online to deal with the constant freezing. I have: --upgraded countless times (now on Ver 102.9.0, 64 bit, Win 10, 32GB RAM, 3TB hard drive) --reinstalled Thunderbird many times --deleted various profiles and created new ones, deleted various config files as suggested. --reinstalled Windows 10, upgraded all associated files, drivers, etc. --started Windows in Safe Mode --disabled all add-ons and extensions in TB --reset all toolbars and controls in TB --started Thunderbird in Troubleshoot Mode --gave an exception to TB in my Windows Defender [and turned off Defender entirely] --ran MANY virus scans --disabled ALL virus software

Thunderbird is the ONLY piece of software on this PC that locks it up. It exhibits the same behavior that many here are seeing: freezes when I try to click on something; freezes when I try to reply to an email; freezes for no apparent reason. I can't MAKE it freeze up... it just seems to do it at random, constantly. Right now, it's open on another screen and has been frozen for about 3 minutes, and just unfroze. Most of the time, it freezes so that I cannot shut TB down. It is completely unresponsive. Sometimes it will freeze the computer so that I cannot do ANYTHING... I cannot open Task Manager and force a shutdown. Eventually, it releases and works again, only to freeze up a few minutes later.

I'm pretty much out of ideas, but I continue to browse online, looking for answers. As I said, three years of this is enough, and I see complaints about this going back even further. I love Thunderbird. I'm a longtime user and have not found any email client that comes close to the way TB works for me, so I'm VERY reluctant to leave. But I'm really tired of being a beta tester. And yes, I have donated many times over the years, and I'm happy to do so. I'm not concerned with the money. I just want it to work like it used to. If you have any fresh ideas, I'm very open to hearing them. But a warning, that I have likely already tried the fixes offered. I appreciate any input, in any event.

So, unless a miracle comes along, I reckon I'll have to cut bait and find a replacement for Thunderbird. Thanks for allowing me to blow off some long-held frustration.

best,

Mostly trying to get on website I then see notation to ACTIVATE FIREFOX OR TURN ON Firefox which doesn't tell me how to turn it on, how long 42 months? to keep trying getting nowhere but frustrated

HOW DO I GET FIREFOX TO WORK FOR ME instead of me being in unpaid for indefinite term FOREVER looking thru Firefox list of my saved names and passwords and entering it myself BECAUSE ---- Maybe I'm wrong but I thought that was the whole FIREFOX EXPERIENCE, to keep track of passwords and enter them for me. Reality is every day is a game of KEEP AWAY from me any user benefit

How do I get Firefox to do more for me than give me message to UNLOCK FIREFOX for starters HOW TO DO THAT i.e. input user names and passwords to the multitudes of website I try to access. **Instead of me spending time finding username and password AND STILL NOT GET

THE GAME OF SEEK AND SEARCH the name and password to open keys to kingdom for myself is GETTING REALLY OLD

Dear Team After update of version, I am not able to see my user login and passwords saved default in my mozilla browser kindly help me . I am a professional and not getting my user and passwords of my sites . Its very very Urgent.

Dont know what to do I have not saved the details and that will impact me badly I have my deadlines.

I use Thunderbird on a few machines. I take emails from one machine to another by putting the emails in a folder, then attaching the two related files to an email to myself. When I get the attachments on the next machine, I save the files to a hard drive folder containing my email folders. I exit Thunderbird and restart it and there's the folder with the transferred emails. I've recently added a 64 bit machine to the mix. I have a problem in that the 64 bit machine will not see the transfer folder when emailed from a 32 bit machine. If I copy the files to a flash drive from the 32 bit machine and then onto the 64 bit machine, then it sees the folders. Any ideas how I can fix this? It's a pain to be using flash drives back and forth. Thanks.

The error message is:

Unable to write the email to the mailbox. Make sure the file system allows you write privileges, and you have enough disk space to copy the mailbox.

Version 102.9.0

Have more than one mailbox; only happens with one of several

Thanks in advance
