My TV listings website says I need to disable my ad blocker. EXCEPTIONS is not highlighted on the customize settings page for Firefox focus. How do I make an EXCEPTION for this one website?

If this is supposed to happen by default. If so. I don't understand why. To me, this is backwards. Can someone please explain the logic to me?

When I reopen my browser, the tabs to the right of what was the active tabs is chosen. Same thing when I close a tab, the tab to the right opens instead of going left.

There has to be a way to reverse these behaviors I assume are related.

Hi, Is it possible to make Firefox resize the information when I resize the Firefox window? Often when I resize, I can't see all of the content and have to slide the scroll bar to see the entire page. Is there a way to make it automatically adjust the information to fit the window?

thanks

Greetings...

In the Settings > Privacy & Security > History > Clear browsing data and cookies > Automatically clear all checked items when Firefox closes, I have the "Temporary cached files and pages" selected to be automatically cleared when I close Firefox.

Unfortunately, this does not appear to be working, in that when I reopen Firefox and immediately check the Cookies and Site Data or the History sections, the Temporary cached files contains the same MB of files that appeared before I closed Firefox.

Any idea why this setting appears not to be working as described and expected? Please advise. Thank you very much for your assistance. Take care...

Ever since updates in 2024 and late 2023, my view on Firefox websites has changed so the right side of pages is cut off. I am forced to use Google Chrome when I really want to use Firefox. I am not technically savvy to figure this out. If I change the Zoom, it also changes the font size. All I want is the previous view settings where my whole website page fits on my screen and I can read the text.

Hello,

sorry if this has been asked before. I have Thunderbird on Linux Mint at work, configured with work account, of course, and several others. How can I make Thunderbird show desktop notification when mail arrives ONLY for one account, and not for others. I tried clicking through settings, at it seems to me that I can configure notifications for all accounts or no notifications at all.

One of the usages of using a mail client is to have multiple accounts in the same program, and I hate webmail / am old school, but I hate it when my coworker sits with me in front of my screen, and suddenly a LinkedIn job offer from my personal account pops up in desktop notifications.

Again, sorry if I didn't read through everything, another problem is that the UI keeps changing alot, so setting aren't where they used to be... Is it possible in an easy way to do what I want?

Thanks, Davor

I'm using Thunderbird version 115.12.2 on Mac Sonoma 14.5. Every once and a while, when Thunderbird crashes (unfortunately frequent, because of the numbers of folders and emails), my unified folder suddenly contains *all* of my folders, rather than just the 2 inboxes from my 2 different accounts, which is what I want and what I set up when I configured unified.

When I go into properties --> "select the folders to search" it allows me to uncheck 1 folder at a time. BUT I have 1,931 folders !

Is there a way to uncheck all folders in "select the folders to search" and then I can just check inbox in each of my 2 accounts?

I created this thread about year ago Make Firefox android default for google assistant, shortcuts, but I missed the last response by Paul.

"If you search the Settings app for "default", you should see "default digital assistant app" as one of the results."

Sorry Paul.

I found the settings for the app with, but the app itself isn't the listed under apps.

I was able to make Firefox the default, but in partnership with what? With Firefox as the "default", Google Assistant is deactivated.

Other software I use show a logo in the upper left window corner or program name in the title bar or both. Firefox and MS Edge show neither. When both are open I can't tell from a glance which is which. If I remember correctly, in days gone by Firefox showed its logo in the title bar. Is there any setting to turn this on?

Hi,

I recently setup a second computer and installed Thunderbird (Built 115.13.0 (64-bit)) again. I transferred all my preferences, but have this strange problem, that the appearance of the email list looks different. In the previously installed version it is a simple list with separators and in the new installed version every email is in a separate box. I included the screenshots as a reference.

I googled and searched the settings to align this, but unfortunately without success. Does anyone know how to change this?

Thank you!

Currently the taskbar icon only offers a few tasks in the context menu, such as open new tab, new window or private new window.

I understand that accessing about:config would allow me some other options, such as recently visited pages. And also allows me to remove those tasks.

I want to add the option to select which profile I open from that menu, instead of opening the default one, then selecting the correct profile in about:profiles that, in turn opens yet another window.

I tried adding a value "browser.taskbar.lists.profiles.enable" and several variations of that command. None worked.

Is there a way to add that option, so when I right-click the icon in the taskbar I can directly select the profile I want to launch?

I am a long time Thunderbird user, first use dates back to version 0.3 (yes I am very old :) ). Recently I have started my own domain and introduced a few new mail addresses. Every new mail address I define, comes at the bottom of the list of mailboxes. And now that my old mail address is no longer used, I would like it to the bottom of the list. I have not found how to do that. Can you explain how I can achieve this? Environment Win 10 22H2, Thunderbird 115.13.0 (64-bit). Thanks!

Hello,

I am reaching out to gain information on ADMX GPO policies. We are retiring Policy Pak which used to add all the policies and secure Firefox for Enterprise. What we noticed is that Policy Pak used the app set to apply these policies and we are noticing that native GPO's for the most part to match the Policy Pak policies is not as accurate for GPO's My ask here is there any Most Viable Product suggestions to apply Native GPO's for securing Firefox.

Hi

In "my" Thunderbird app, I see in my inbox new messages in blue color. So also in messages that filtered to "folders" or labels (I don't know the exact term). When clicking on a message its color is turning to black. This is OK. Howeve, when I leave inbox or any folder, All its messages are turninh to black. I would like to keep all of them blue, unless I click on a blue message.

Can you please tell me how?

Thank You, Zeev Wigelman

Hi all

I like to enforce the following setting "Require device sign in to fill and mange passwords" in the mozilla.cfg but I couldn't find the setting in about:config.

Can anyone help?

The Settings Selection "Always ask me where to save [downloaded] files." has no effect. FF will automatically save the file into whatever folder I selected. (As it happens, that is \MyReceivedFiles.) This means I have to download again to the correct directory/folder and give it a new name. Because there is no "Save As" option. I do not have this problem in Edge browser. This exact same problem was posted at "Downloads default to download folder and never ask where to save them. " https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1412632 But it was archived without being solved. Please solve the problem. P.S. SUPPORT FORUMS: STOP ARCHIVING THREADS OR CLOSING THEM.

Hello I am constantly switching between Bookmarks and Tree Style Tab in the sidebar. The toolbar button "Show sidebars" is fine for switching between sidebar displayed or not, but switching between Bookmarks and Tree Style Tab is not so convenient : i have to go through the small menu and select either Bookmarks or Tree Style Tab, which is two clicks and a mouse move away, boring when you are constantly switching... Is there a way to add a second toolbar button to do this switching (or have two buttons, one for Bookmarks and one for Tree Style Tabs) ? Hope someone has a solution, thanks in advance. Alain Coste
