After moving my thunderbird 104 profile to 115 supernova (including the profiles.ini file), I can see the full list of accounts and folders in supernova, but none of the emails are visible. I can receive and send new messages, but again - none of them are visible when I want to see them later in the inbox or sent folders. Moreover, the right-click mouse button does not work on the whole list of accounts/folders on the left side of the agent. What to do. I have 16Gb of emails and cannot use them.

I have connected my wifes outlook acc. and my Gmail acc. without issue, one on each of the user profiles, but with the 3rd my Outlook acc, I keep getting the "Unable to log in at server..." error. The Name/email/password are all correct. I have tried connecting my 3rd email account (+New/Existing Mail Account) as the 2nd account on different profiles but I get the same error trying to connect my Outlook acc.. I have verified that Thunderbird is configured to accept cookies. Is there some issue with having 2 outlook accounts linked to the same instance of Thunderbird?? (I hope not!! - that would be a complete deal-breaker!) Is there anything else I can try? Many thanks

Since last few days, whenever i want to save a file from Gmail, it is taking me to that one folder (destination) which i had used few days ago, probably before the latest update.

I navigate and go to the folder i want to save the file in and then finish the download.

But unlike before, the next document which i am trying to download, opens the download box to save in the old folder (not even the default "downloads" folder) instead of the folder in which i have saved the file moments ago.

I have checked the settings and everything is okay there.

This has severely impacted my working and is causing immense inconvenience.

Is this a bug? Do i need to reset my firefox? Please help!

Hi, I have had Thunderbird on my Windows 10 laptop successfully for many years. Today I added a new email account, but then Thunderbird kept losing connection. I thought I'd try uninstalling and re-installing it, but now I get the message that it can't be installed on my laptop. Anyone know how I can get round this?

I had a huge problem with M Outlook. In addition it has locked me out of my Office 365 package and I'm not getting help or support. Luckily I had backup completed before the problem. I changed to Thunderbird (using pop3), which I find very good. The back up is approx 8 GB but with many duplicates which I need to clean up. When I click import it seems to limit the file size to 2 GB. How can I import this backup file into Thunderbird to enable me to access the emails, clean up the many many duplicates and reduce the size? I await help, Thanks in advance

Please advise how to get the Version 93

Hello, I'm migrating from Outlook Express to Thunderbird 102, in Windows 8.1. I'd like to import my Address Book (.wab file) into TB 102. It seems a direct import is not possible (?). I have to convert my .wab file to a .csv file that TB can import. But doing so, I loose all the organization of my old address book (1500 contacts and tens of folders and sub-folders) ! How can I save the organization (folders) of my old address book in TB ? Tks in advance for your answers and solutions.

Getting access to all folders after update to V115

Hi,

Been using Tbird for forever.

I have a odd setup of accounts. A bunch of accounts that are each one email address. No problem.

And then one LOCAL folder for a bunch of personal email addresses (eg, xxx@mindspring and xxx@earthlink.net combined into one Tbird "account" -- and and a few more email addresses too). This setup has worked fine for years.

BUT, then I upgraded to V115.

All my history in Inbox, Sent, etc, etc. is LOST for Local.

Why? (Honestly, I don't care about THAT so much ... see next question).

How do I get that history BACK??? In those subfolders? If you need it, I can list all the subfolders I use (pretty good guess).

I have TWO profiles apparently. Not clear to me if the install chose the wrong one. Plus a profiles.ini file in the Thunderbird Library folder.

Under Crash Reports: I have an Install Time item for Sept 6 - probably when I installed V115. Useful??

Where do I start?

THANKS! I NEED HELP!!!

THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM

Dear Sirs,

I have been a satisfied Thunderbird user for more than ten years, I have made a large one-time donation and I also make a monthly donation.

Since I had my hip replaced ten days ago it is difficult for me to get to my office upstairs so yesterday I wanted to transfer some accounts to my notebook that I otherwise use in Thunderbird on my stationary work computer.

On some website I read instructions for copying a "profile" from a desktop computer (Windows 7 Pro 32 bit) to a laptop (Windows 10 Pro 64 bit). I don't know what I did wrong: all the desired accounts (four of them) appeared on the laptop but they all ask for passwords all the time and don't save or remember them.

Out of sheer stupidity I also updated the stationary computer to version 102.3.3 and also updated the version of the Mozilla browser. The end result is that now even on a stationary computer Thunderbird asks for passwords all the time and does not save them.

I also tested the transfer while entering passwords a few dozen times and somehow managed to forward one email from the archive on two accounts.

Today I tried to install an old version of Thunderbird (38 and/or 52) on a desktop computer from your website but it downloads version 102 every time.

We have our own e-mail server in the company and my colleague reset my password (just in case) and I entered the new/temporary password in the mail on my mobile phone (Blackberry) which after the change normally receives and sends e-mails. Blackberry of course worked normally all the time even with the old password.

PLEASE - PLEASE let me know the solution because I really do NOT WANT to use any other email app.

Best regards,

                            Janez

I have a list so long it won't fit here. I can only think to install back to an update 10 days ago. I can't find an option for that- and I am not a proffessional- just a simple user.

I have a MacAir, since installing the latest update, Thunderbird: stalls for so long and can't switch it off or access anything for hours sporadically, it won't save 'sent' emails sporadically, it sends emails full of garbage - numbers, green and black screens, and other illegable content. sporadically. A lot of problems happen the moment I put an image into the content. and then I can't undo it. I can't access the image to move it, to delete it, just stuck. the signature keeps including code. it now says 105% full. Since when did we have a quota? I didn't know how to fix it. So it's now blocking me receiving emails. so I archived, deleted mails and it shifted it. BUT I have never had to do this before and don't want to -I have a busness to run and need to keep records. I can't delete in the future. What is this stupid quota thing?

I can keep going with the problems I have. But I don't have copious amounts of weeks and months to now trouble shoot. So I thought I just take it back to a previous update -say 2 weeks ago before th eproblems started, and not update again until Thunderbird can function on the Mac.

Can anyone help me? I am scared to uninstall, as I don't want to lose my contacts again. (had previous problems with Thunderbird in the last few months) ...now this. and have no idea how to get help? I want to be loyal to thunderbird- but I can't function with it right now.

....anyone?

We have recently enabled background updates in our organization, however I noticed that a requirement for this to work is that Firefox needs to be run with the default profile at least once after the feature is enabled. The issue we have is that not all users are actively using Firefox and therefore they are not being updated. I realize the security flaws won't be exposed if it's not in use, but management doesn't like seeing out of date browsers. Is there a way to force auto updates on all device where Firefox isn't not being used. Background updating is working for the majority of those that do use Firefox.

Also, we do have a couple of users reporting a credential prompt when updating from 119 to 119.0.1. These same users had no issues updating from 118 to 119. I have not figured out why this is happening just yet and why only for a handful of users so far. Would anyone have an idea why that is happening?

Hi all,

we are using Mozilla Firefox ESR in our enterprise environment.

Is there a documentation which URL's Firefox uses when (Mozilla Maintenance Service) when it tries to update his version ?

We have tried with following URL's on our Firewall:

aus.mozilla.org aus2.mozilla.org aus3.mozilla.org aus4.mozilla.org aus5.mozilla.org download.cdn.mozilla.net archive.mozilla.org ftp.mozilla.org

It is finding the new version, but when trying to download the update it fails.

Thank you for any help on this case.
