Long-time Firefox user here, with a mega frustrating issue I've had for months now. I keep my default Firefox container for corporate / work related logins, and a Personal container for other stuff. I'm utterly confused as to when clicking a URL in another app will launch the site in the default container, and when it will launch in the Personal container - it really seems random. And there seems no obvious way to control this.

So for example, I have my corporate github account, and my personal one, logged in in these different containers. Launching links from Outlook (work email), more often than not, opens in my personal container, and so none of my work-related github links are clickable. At one stage I'd made it so github links would only ever open in the default container, but then that precludes me from ever using my personal github account in Firefox too, so seems to completely defeat the purpose. But sometimes (infrequently) it launches in the default container! I've verified it has nothing to do with what container tab is currently in focus. Is it just guessing based on how many tabs of a particular container I've opened today??

Besides understanding this problem, is there any way I can control which container is opened when launching links from external apps like Outlook or Slack? Sure, I can copy the link, then open a tab, then paste it in, but FML if I have to do that 50 times a day - I'll need to jump back to Chrome :(

Hi,

I am facing an issue whenever I visit any website with Marathi or Devnagari font on one particular device, e.g. www.loksatta.com. The app is updated to the latest version. I am using Samsung Galaxy M51.

I have reset the data, reinstalled the app but it didn't help. This is happening on only one device, on my other devices, phone/ tablet/ iPhone, I don't have any issues with the same website.

With best regards, Abhinay

Thunderbird works well for me and downloads to the Thunderbird Inbox from my email providers host Inbox.

However I would really like the sys to also download to my Thunderbird "Spam" box from my host "Spam" box which would be seen immediatly rather than have to go to my host web mail account which is a bit longwinded and a hassle. I find that some valid emails are treated as spam by my provider.

I have created a "Spam" box in Thunderbird and the path is exactly the same as the Inbox but substituting "Spam" in lieu of "Inbox".

Is this possible? Help! What do I do?

Many thanks

Robin

After new installation of Windows 11 and Thunderbird at 15.Jan 2025 I had to restore my local Folders to get accessions to prior e-mails. With the function Import it wasn't be possible to import the real data. With konto-parameter I could set the file to the prior profiles, but I could only set it to one of multiple subfolders, to get access to the e-mail data. My solution (but not really a good solution): to copy all data of the prior profile to the profile of the new installation (without a function of Thunderbird - manually by the simple Explorer). You need all data inclusive all folders and files in the \Mail\Local Folders\ with all .sbg Files (= SubFolders with SubSubfolders), .msf (name of Subfolders with data) and the data files. (in Explorer all System files and System folders must be visible). I had then problems to reorginize the subfolders then in Thunderbird and to delete data ---> with manually reorganizing, renaming and deleting unnessary data by the simple Explorer this was easier and faster.

The Import Function should be improved - no reply necessary

With the istallation in Nov 2024 (when I had the identical problem) I didn't recognized this problem

Thanks

Sometime in the last hour or so, my Nasdaq prompts for Apple Common Stock (AAPL) and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) failed for the reason "Problem loading page". Also this:

"An error occurred during a connection to www.nasdaq.com."

   "The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified."
   "Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem."

This advice is incredibly obscure; could you translate it into some advice that I can use? Thank you,

To be clear, the procedure was from the support team guiding the way. Anyone have possession of these instructions or algorithm, or a better method that still works? Many thanks :)
