There used to be a way to add a web site as a shortcut to the Home page by dragging the link and dropping it somewhere. Those instructions seem to have disappeared. One of the sites I had pinned to the Home page has changed. I can remove the old link (tile), but how do I add the new link as a tile? The help articles no longer provide any information about how to do this. Just "pinning' the page adds it to the toolbar, where I don't want it, but does not add it to the Home page. Do I have to just close and open that site a bunch of times in order to get it to appear???? There should be a more sensible way.

I have two instances of two different profiles (lets call them profile A and profile B) of Firefox running simultaneously. When I click on a link in another application (for example a link in Thunderbird) the Firefox instance I started last will open up the link. This can be profile A or profile B, whichever I started later. However, I would like links to be open in the instance of profile A at all times. How can I do this without making sure profile A is started after profile B? Previously I could achieve this using the -no-remote command line option. This option has been removed from the latest Firefox version.

Hi, I download some e-mails. After checking the emails, I want all of them to be deleted from thunderbird but... ...I want only specified emails deleted from server.

In Mac's "Mail" program, there was a special window, where I could see all e-mails on server and just select which I want to remove from server.

In old Outlook, I've used "Rules". There I could set the parameters for specified e-mails and then tell outlook to "leave that message on server" or "Don't download that message from server".

Being fairly new to Thunderbird I'm still exploring the possibilities. I know I can display only unread messages in a particular folder by using the Quick Filter / Show only... option, but is it possible to set up a more direct method which requires only one click and is permanently displayed as an option?

Many thanks.

When Firefox loads a web site such as TicTok.com, the site instantly plays the very first video that loads. Now this sure sounds like there would be a very simple solution for this problem and the solution should be built right into Firefox's settings... right? Let's see here...

Settings\Privacy & Security\Permissions\Autoplay {pop-up window} Default for all sites: [Allow Audio and Video]

                                   Block Audio
                                   Block Audio and Video

Website Listbox: Status: about:welcome^privateBrowsingId=1 [Allow Audio and Video] about:welcome [Allow Audio and Video]

   *the two dropdownboxes in this list have the same options as the 'all sites' dropdownbox.

So with these settings I certainly can block every website from autoplaying any audio or I can block every website from autoplaying any audio AND video. However these settings do not provide a "Block Video" only option. Why would anyone want that? Well because of the way sites like TicTok actually behave when Block Audio and Video is set. When Block Audio and Video is set, the user will have to press play on the video AND then press unmute. The user should be able to prevent the video playback when the website loads, and when the user presses play the audio should just start working without need for pressing unmute. This however, is only annoyance issue.

There is a real functionality issue as well. When looking at the Website Listbox, this component is essentially useless. The developers didn't even need to include the two "about:welcome" entries. They won't ever do anything unless Mozilla decides to add Audio/video to their welcome page (probably not happening). So the user can safely delete those two entries, but here is where it gets interesting. Once deleted, the user can not put them back. In fact, the user cannot enter ANYTHING into this listbox (why?). The only thing we can do is Remove All Websites.

What does this mean for the user? It means that I am relegated to either simply dealing with obnoxious websites and their autoplayed videos. Or I can set it so every website is blocked from autoplaying Audio and Video, but if I do that then I will have to unmute videos before clicking play. The presence of the Website Listbox sure does suggest that the user should be able to add websites, thereby creating a customized list of sites which should or shouldn't have autoplay permissions. To be quite honest, this part of Firefox seems incomplete and I hope it will see some attention soon.

I am an longtime user but not a freak in using the system. I have the feeling that ISPs have difficulty in implementing good standards, but Thunderbird as well. I had a sequence of issues and failures and had to repair them by continuously changing settings and now it becomes virtually inoperable. I do not want to spend time in solving all these issues, if expert fora suggests pieces of python code as solution I have to conclude that the system does not work any more. One other problem TB changes apparently so much its own menu structure that that is also not working any more. And solutions given cannot be implemented. Sorry to say, this is immature freaky programming, you need some serious system engineers and managers to repair the chaos. Google and ISPs will anyhow continue with their own interest so Thunderbird should be robust against the outside inconsistencies. My complaint is both for the calender as the mail handling. Sorry to say, I am willing to pay that you could hire good programmers, but the volunteers with proper guiding are possibly better qualified. I hope you can solve the issues - changing fully to another environment implies reorganising my work environment.

Hoping you can recover, success, Lars Venema
