I am using Linux Mint in Dark Mode. Most emails which come through are easily read in the panel. See attached.

But others are practically unreadable in Dark Mode. See attached.

How do I adjust the settings so that the unreadable ones become readable in the panel. Thank you in advance or any help.

How to increase time on an open app or screen? I barely have a chance to do anything and they time out. Very annoying. Couldn't find anything in Settings to address this. J Lane

I'm running the latest Firefox v133 and I use a dark theme for my browser, but I want to keep all the websites displaying in a light theme. However if I choose Light Theme in General>Language and Appearance>Website Appearance, it will make my new tag page light as well, but for my theme I want to keep that page dark as well. I just want to know what the about:config setting is that I can have Firefox disable this check so that it always keeps the websites using Light Theme by default. Would appreciate any help, thank you.

Some time back, I let Firefox install an update. Uninstalled it a short time later cause I was getting flooded with ads. Happened again. Tried to ignore it and not install it but it was like my computer was taken over by Microsoft, couldn't do anything. One window had something about Trojan something couldn't read it windows were overlapping. One said I needed to allow the Firefox update or they would freeze up my computer. I couldn't do anything so used the task manager to kill it all. Then allowed Firefox to update. Now have all the ads again. Also, in Firefox settings, something new. Top of page, message says: "Your browser is being managed by your organization." Click on it and see this:

My personal computer, no idea where this is coming from or what it means. Anyone tell me what's going on. Had some problems with PC Matic a while ago (not virus or anything), just decided I needed a change. When I tried to uninstall it, it was a real mess. Totally locked me out of one of my other computers.

Thought this one was OK. The other one will now boot but will not make it through a restart unless I skip the part of the restart that does malware checks

I have several errors associated with the unified folders display. I have 6 email addresses coming in to Thunderbird. 3 are IMAP and 3 are POP. I have the POP addresses consolidated into the "Local" Folders Inbox, Sent, Trash etc. In the "All Folder" account views, the Local folder correctly displays one Inbox, one Sent, one Trash etc. The 3 POP emails accounts are being consolidated appropriately. However,in Unified folders, the Local folder as well as all of the individual POP addresses are now listed for the Inbox, Trash and Junk folders. There is now no consolidation.

Also, the Unified folders themselves are extremely slow in working. Accessing the properties for the Unified Inbox, Trash or Junk folders results in a long wait with Thunderbird entering a not responding state. Right click operations on the unified folders do not work at all. I cannot select properties, I cannot mark as read, empty or otherwise manipulate the folder. I must go to the individual accounts to manage any folder content. Which I would think makes the whole concept of Unified folders moot.

I am not at all certain what may be the root cause of this rather longstanding problem. I have deleted the smartfolders directory, have deleted the virtualfolders.dat and foldercache.json and foldertree.json files. Nothing seems to work.

Any suggestions?

Help, been searching for hours. I'm missing something obvious or I'm blind. Where is a copy to clipboard (without an extension) icon? (Long press, copy is so lame.)

IE: Single tap and the following appear right below the bar.

Yesterday when I tried to open my gmail in Firefox I got this page coming up Clear cache & cookies

When you use a browser, like Chrome, it saves some information from websites in its cache and cookies. Clearing them fixes certain problems, like loading or formatting issues on sites. Computer AndroidiPhone & iPad In Chrome

   On your computer, open Chrome.
   At the top right, click More More and then Delete browsing data.
   Choose a time range, like Last hour or All time.
   Select the types of information you want to remove.
   Click Delete data.
       If you delete cookies while signed in to Chrome, you won't be signed out of your Google Account.

I'm concerned about deleting data, it's always worked until yesterday.

Should I follow these instructions?

I have tried reinstalling Ffox ad nauseum but the zoom settings will not 'stick' and don't survive a quit and restart. In an effort to sort this I have installed Firefox 128.5.2esr but now the zoom setting does not work at all.

Tried everyting, including deleting all ref to Ffox and reinstalling but nothing works.

Note that I install in the admin account and run as user. This worked fine with MacOS Ventrura but fails with Sequoia. If I install from the user account with admin privileges zoom does work but fails on a machine restart.

Safari, Vivaldi etc all work as expected. It's only Ffox that has the problem. Shame as I've used it for years. If I can't solve this I shall have to go over to Vivaldi and give Chromium another shot in the arm.

Any help appreciated.

I don’t know how it happened but I can no longer type into the url/search box in Chinese when using the ios app. I’m having to type out everything in a notepad app and copy paste into Firefox which is becoming tedious. Switching to the English keyboard works, it just Chinese keyboard that’s blocked. I can’t find how to fix this in settings. Please help!

Hello everybody, I'm facing an issue with an icon appearing on some sites and propagating down to the print out of the pages. Let me give an example: I'm interested in an article published on: https://www.electronicdesign.com/technologies/analog/article/55246421/modeling-on-mondays-nonlinear-spice-models-of-vacuum-tube-triodes-part-3?o_eid=9960G5790701E5D&oly_enc_id=9960G5790701E5D&rdx.ident[pull]=omeda|9960G5790701E5D&utm_campaign=CPS241216087&utm_medium=email&utm_source=ED+Power+%26+Analog When I open this page, an icon appears in the low left corner. And when I try to print the page, the icon appears on each page. If I use the simplified print mode, a kind of background of the icon (white box) is still visible on each page and can hide the text behind. On top of that the images no longer appear in the print out...

Any help to sanitize that is welcome.

Hello all,

Ever since an update to Firefox from a few weeks ago, I have been having issues with white backgrounds displaying incorrectly in Firefox. I have attached two identical images from the NYT homepage: the first is a screenshot from Chrome and the second is the same exact image but taken from Firefox.

I have also attached another screenshot taken in Firefox from REI.com. You'll see that it's not necessarily just a white background that is causing the weird blue color. It also happens in products images being displayed incorrectly.

I figured this might be a Firefox website appearance setting, but I have played around with it and selected many different permutations and I haven't been able to solve this issue. I have also tried refreshing Firefox, using Firefox in Safemode, disabling all of my plugins/themes, etc. and nothing was fixed.

I am pretty sure this isn't a system wide issue or a monitor issue because these websites are being displayed 100% correct in Chrome and Edge. This is only an issue in Firefox.

Can someone advise?

Thanks,

DC
