I asked a PC repair shop to move the local profile from C:\ to D:\. The result is as follows: The profile at D:\ is used to store my mails according to account settings: Account Name: Wolfgang Local Directory D:\Thunderbird\Profiles\uec9qce6.default\Mail\Local Folders Troubleshooting Information "about profiles" says: Profile: default This is the profile in use ... Local Directory: C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\Thunderbird\Profiles\uec9qce6.default The profile manager only knows the profile default

How can I tell thunderbird to switch completely to D:\ (where all my mails are currently stored)? I need to free the disk space in C:\

Thanky you for your help

I have upgraded to the 64 Bit version of Beta and also installed Daily. The Beta install successfully upgraded all my profile settings, including address books, to the 64 Bit version. However, Daily did not do so. I pointed the mail folder to my upgraded profile and that links email between the Beta and Daily versions. However, when I try to import MAD, CSV, of LDIF files into Daily, the import fails.

Is there a way to have Daily use the same address book(s) as Beta?

I had Thunderbird running fine under Ubuntu 20.04 and built up contacts and calendar events. i loved it.

I have now upgraded to Ubuntu 22.04 and found Thunderbird has made a new installation and a new .default file. I no longer have my contacts and calendar events.

If we call my data rich original file old.default as the old file and the new.default file as my new empty file with a few recent emails, how can I merge old.default and new.default please?

I fried my old laptop and have a new one. After installing Thunderbird, I wanted to transfer my address book to the new laptop. The old hard drive (M2) works and I can access it. I cannot find the address file. I tried copying the entire folder, but that did not work. Should I uninstall Thunderbird from my new laptop and then copy again? Or can you tell me how to find and transfer the address book?

I have download set to always ask and consequently always get the, "What should Firefox do with this file?" dialogue box. 9 times out of 10 I choose, "Open with ... ". 10 times out of 10 Firefox also downloads the file. How can I stop FireFox downloading files I don't want ?

You actually have an egregious error in your install procedure/program. 1) you fail to tell folks/warn them close down i) FF when installing the update and/or ii) save and delete all open sites in the FF being upgraded. 2) there is a failure to TELL us reboot FF after the install.

Doing research and writing all day long as I do, I actually hold a number of reference sites open in FF as I work.

My friend who happens to understand all this computer stuff tells me that the open sites on my FF is what impeded the successful install . . . .

The other grumble I have with you-all is that it has taken me too much time to try and find a way to respond to you with the information needed to solve this problem for the FF community . . . .

I am a paying/donator to FF . . . and I must tell you I am beyond disappointed by all this dropped ball on sensible communications practice!

I try using the pair feature but each time I scan, I get a page showing "Did you use the system camera? You must pair from within the Firefox app" Even though I did pair from the Firefox app. I have tried multiple times, always the same issue. Device: Samsung s20 fe OS: Android 12 Browser version: The latest on both PC and Mobile

At history of download files, there is file which was "not safe" i can't allow it or remove from history it comes back each time i open firefox again..and file was removed.. Help, it's very annoying

In release 100 , why did you not bring my old profile data along??? I'm a computer professional and it was a nerve-racking experience. I can't image how most people could follow your instructions on how to recover from your thoughtless update procedure. I've been through many Firefox upgrades over the years without such effort.

I set Thunderbird up for the first time earlier today and wrongly opted for POP. I realise now that it means I can't see my Sent folder, etc, so I'd like to change to IMAP. Unfortunately the article explaining how to do this on your website does not relate to the newest version of Thunderbird, as installed today. I've tried deleting the programme and reinstalling but it's remembering that I chose POP and not letting me start with a clean slate. Please can you help me with this, as I'd love to use Thunderbird!

I have just installed V.100 and have come across a small problem. I can't sign into 'The Canberra Times' site. The option to sign in is missing from their home page. It is there using MS Edge or Chrome and I can login to the site on those two browsers. This does not seem to be a problem with other websites that I have tried since the new version!

I can't even begin to imagine what might be going on with a situation like this! Thanks.

I have a friend whose G5 Mac Tower is running OS X 10.4 / System 9 and he needs to install ThunderBird.

ALL Of the System requirements for releases prior to 31 are missing. https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/31.1.0/system-requirements/ None earlier than THAT.

Which Version of Thunderbird runs under Mac OS 10.4 ?

After installing the latest update 91.0.9 (I think), TB starts, shows my 'folders' in the left column and 'event's in the right column, then, instead of showing the selected email folder, an hourglass appears for a few seconds and then nothing. I've sent multiple crash reports. I tried uninstalling and re-installing to no avail. I've used TB for 10+ years on both PC n MAC - first time it's left me high and dry. HELP !!
