Hello, I've got the french version of Thunderbird on my laptop. I want to have it now on my smartphone Android. But impossible to find the function "move to mobile" in the parameterss... Please help me !

Outlook says that it will no longer let third party mail apps like Thunderbird to access Outlook email as of September 16, 2024? What do you recommend?

"Action Needed – You may lose access to some of your third-party mail and calendar apps

Update your sign-in technology before September 16th, 2024 to maintain email access.

The safety and security of your information is top priority for Microsoft. To help keep your account secure, Microsoft will no longer support the use of third-party email and calendar apps which ask you to sign in with only your Microsoft Account username and password. To keep you safe you will need to use a mail or calendar app which supports Microsoft’s modern authentication methods. If you do not act, your third-party email apps will no longer be able to access your Outlook.com, Hotmail or Live.com email address on September 16th.

What do you need to do?

If you are receiving this email, you are currently using an email or calendar app that uses a less secure authentication method to connect to your Outlook.com email account. You will need to upgrade your third-party mail and calendar app to a version which supports modern authentication methods.

Microsoft provides free versions of Outlook for your PC, Mac, iOS, and Android devices which can be easily downloaded and connect to your email account. Using an updated version of an Outlook application will ensure you are connecting in the most secure way.

How can you set up your Gmail, Apple Mail, or other third-party mail application?

Various non-Microsoft applications will have their own steps for connecting to your Outlook.com email account using modern authentication methods. See our help article - Modern Authentication Methods now needed to continue syncing Outlook Email in non-Microsoft email apps. However, you may need to contact the creators of those applications to provide you with instructions. In many cases, simply removing and re-adding your account with the latest version of that application will configure it to use modern authentication methods.

I am trying to upgrade from ESR to Release. I saved my profile successfully, went to the install page and clicked Download. Got a request to donate, which I did. Then I got a page saying Thank you, Finish installing and enjoy Thunderbird. But there is no way to finish installing and I never got a download file. I've tried multiple times, nothing happens. Help!

I wish to transfer my Thunderbird accounts (i.e. I have two different email addresses in one Thunderbird installation) from my 'old' PC to my 'new' laptop.

Historically I have backed up my emails by copying the Thunderbird folder from <user>/AppData/Roaming/Thunderbird and pasting it to my backup disk. This has worked well for more than 6 years. In that time, I've had to recover a couple of times by simply re-installing Thunderbird, establishing it with my main email account (ian_and_maureen@yahoo.co.uk), then replacing the newly established .../Roaming/Thunderbird folder with the archived one, thus recovering all my subfolder data in the Inbox of ian_and_maureen... plus a second email address.

I've tried to do this with the laptop, but I don't fully recover the historical data, all I get is the current Inboxes for the two accounts with no historical data. Can you advise me what I'm doing wrong? If this is the wrong way, what is the correct way? It seems essentially the same action as is described by the guide found at Moving Thunderbird Data to a New Computer | Thunderbird Help (mozilla.org)

My PC is running Windows 10 Version 22H2 (OS Build 19045.4717) with Thunderbird Version 115.13.0 (32-bit). The Laptop is Windows 11 Version 23H2 (OS Build 22631.3958 with Thunderbird Version 115.13.0 (64-bit)

I followed directions for using the add-on ImportExport Tools. When I get to the point of importing from the folder with all the contacts in .vcf format, the usual ways in Windows of selecting more than one (such as Ctrl-A for selecting all of them) don't work. (If I go to the file itself in Windows, I can easily select all of them at once.) But I can only select one at a time using the tools to import into the Thunderbird Address Book, which would be very tedious with 350 contacts! Thank you for any help!

I have installed Thunderbird 52.9.1. The good news is that Thunderbird seems to have automatically imported the account settings for my 4 existing email accounts. I dodn't know if it got them from my WLM user data or from an export I did of my WLM accounts some time ago in case something went wrong.

I was using Windows Live Mail 2012

However, I have not been able to import my emails. Elsewhere on this forum I have read about a Thunderbird add-on named ImportExport tools, but when I followed the link to https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/addon/importexporttools/ I tried to download it and got a message that it appears to be corrupted. Since this appears to be the only way to import my WLM emails, I am stuck. Any help would be appreciated.

I have used Firefox for longer than I care to remember and have never had any problem with it but this morning I switched on my PC and a new AI side bar has appeard on the left and I don't want it. Can you please make it so we can remove it and looking around the internet, I know I'm not the only one with this opinion.

Would like to transfer the stored mails (in local folders) from old laptop win7 hard drive to new win10 laptop: where can they be found? Can I add that folder to a cloud so that on both my old ALSOOK on my new laptop that folder remains synchronized and so my permanently stored mails are automatically added to both laptops

Dear folks , Every time I click on Firefox for web search , Fragilepottery.com comes up , I simply cannot find a way to delete Fragilepottery , should I uninstall Firefox and install Firefox again ?

I have windows 10 at moment, but I know I will have to update to winows 11 soon, but I am worried n case I cannot get my Mozilla back again,.

Do I start all over again, or when I update will my laptop still recognise my Mozilla account.

To be honest, I cannot remember my Mozilla password...eeek !! thanfully, my Mozilla did.

I only want Mozilla, I do not use anythng else.

Thank you for you help.

I recently created a new profile, changing from POP3 to IMAP in order to meet the new Microsoft security requirements. All went well until I went to change my address book backup copy routine to access my address book in the new profile.. I cannot find any .MAB nor .SQLITE files anywhere! My address book is out there somewhere, as I can bring it up in Thunderbird, but I cannot find the actual file. What's going on?

Running TB 115.12.2 (32-bit), Windows 10 10.0.19045 Build 19045

The TB Solutions only provide information for a tar "bz2" file. I downloaded a "xz" file (thunderbird-140.0.tar.xz), how do I install this?

Thanks for any help or solution.

I wish to update my current version of 128.12.0esr within my Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS OS.
