This is for POP email. The displayed inbox size is incorrect. With my Inbox empty, "Show folder size" shows 10.6 G in left panel of display. This exceeds max folder size of 4G so something is not working correcty. In addition, MBOX Inbox in Thunderbird Profile also shows 10.6 G. This is important to me because this large file size is preventing me from loading Profile on to flashdrive for purpose of migrating to a new computer. Flash drives wil not accept it and give an error message. In addition, I don't want to start a new installation with bad data.

Hello everyone,

I'm really hoping to achieve a streamlined interface in Firefox without the clutter of two separate bars.

Here’s what I’m looking for: I want the tab bar and toolbar combined into a single bar, similar to Safari on Mac. Specifically:

   The forward and backward arrows should be positioned to the left of the tabs.
   The search bar should be smaller and also located to the left of the tabs.
   The application menu button and extensions button should be moved to the top right corner (on the same bar as the tabs).
   I want to completely remove the separate toolbar, as it takes up unnecessary space.

I’ve attached an image for clarity.

I'm currently using Firefox 132 64-bit on an Intel Mac running macOS Catalina.

I’ve already tried the Neptune theme from this link: Neptune Firefox. The creator is amazing, and the theme is exactly what I need to keep me using Firefox exclusively. However, despite following the instructions carefully, I still only see the layout shown in my attached image. I can't seem to get everything into one bar.

I don’t have experience with coding CSS, and I currently lack the time to learn it. I’m unsure if the Neptune theme should be selectable in the themes menu, but it doesn’t appear there. However, I know this design is possible. I’ve searched various forums and read many threads, but none have provided a solution to my problem.

I would greatly appreciate any assistance in achieving the design shown in the attached image. Whether it’s through a theme, custom CSS code, a plugin, or any other method, I’m open to suggestions as long as it works. Thank you!

I'm setting up a cloud-init to make it easier to deploy Linux workstations. I want to display the various links to my sites on my Firefox browser. Bookmark my services. Do you think this is possible? I've already applied a rule to retrieve certificates, but it seems complicated for bookmarks.

Here's an extract  :

{

 "policies": {
   "Bookmarks": [
     {
       "Title": "Main",
       "URL": "https://service.net",
       "Folder": "Bookmarks Toolbar"
     },
     {
       "Title": "Service 1",
       "URL": "https://service1.net",
       "Folder": "Bookmarks Toolbar"
     },
     {
       "Title": "Service 2",
       "URL": "https://service2.net",
       "Folder": "Bookmarks Toolbar"
     },
     {
       "Title": "Documentation",
       "URL": "https://docs.net",
       "Folder": "Bookmarks Toolbar"
     }
   ]
 }

}

Il y a 2 semaines je travaillais comme d'habitude sous Firefox et faisais appel à des services Google, tels Photos et GMail et d'autres . SANS PROBLEME J'ai renouvelé mon abonnement a AVAST et en ai profité pour exécuter certaines options de nettoyage qu'Avast me proposait. J'ai été surpris quelques jours plus tard de ne pas pouvoir accéder à Google Photos : j'avais les emplacements et commentaires mais pas les photos !

Puis j'ai remarqué que Gmail n'acceptait pas des screenshots

En cherchant l'aide, j'ai supprimé tous les Cookies de Firefox

Depuis lors, que ce soit pour n'importe quel service de Google, autre que RECHERCHE, MAPS, Youtube et Chrome j'obtiens un écran de rejet de GOOGLE quand il est demandé par Firefox. Toujours la même réponse , comme dans le fichier joint

Si je n'arrive plus a travailler avec Firefox que j'ai toujours utilisé, il faudra que je passe à un autre navigateur C'est dommage et contrariant

Hello,

I have a self-made JavaScript-HTML-Calendar on my local file system. I use JavaScript to change the dom, for example to mark a day in the calender as "holiday" or "work". When I use the "Save as" function of Firefox, Firefox does not save the new version of the dom anymore, it does not overwrite the HTML-file on the disc. It worked fine until mid october 2024, but it seems a recent update changed something.

It still works with other browsers, it is only Firefox i have this problem with.

Does somebody know which setting may have been changed causing this problem?

Thanks in advance

Can I build my own version of Thunderbird for Android from the Github source? There is a (ridiculous) shortcoming in Thunderbird and also K-9 that seems trivial to fix. Indeed, K-9 does occasionally fix it, only to remove the fix in subsequent versions.

I have some experience with creating Windows applications from Github code, but have no idea how to build an Android app ...

Thanks for any thoughts.

I take a lot of screenshots using Firefox's built in screenshot tool to share with my friends. After a while it slows down my Photos folder and I move them elsewhere. However, I cannot move, delete, or even rename any of the 18 photos shown in the photo below. They are all from Twitter/X, but this error does not apply to every screenshot from Twitter - I was able to move or delete most of them. However, it is ONLY happening with photos from Twitter. They are not Read Only so I don't know what the issue is. I'm not having this issue with Windows Snip tool, only Firefox Screenshots.

I am attempting to configure the "Simple Tab Groups" extension (having failed to get any help working with the more complicated Sideberry). Following instructions in firefox's "How to use Containers" article: viz: Enable Firefox containers

 " Click the menu button  and select Settings.
   In the General panel, scroll down to the Tabs section.
   Make sure the box next to Enable Container Tabs is checked. "

The "enable Container Tabs" is at the end of the list and is paler type with the box appearing checked; clicking it does not change it. Does that mean it is already self-enabled so that I cannot click it ? This might seem a stupid question but, I am only trying to follow directions! (Now you see why, without directions, I couldn't set up Sideberry. GitHub people wouldn't even answer my questions. I'm not a coder.

Thanks
