Hi, The question is in the title. I have imported my Outlook data in this 32-bits version (updated to 140.7) . I would like to keep them in a 64-bits version (147). I didn't find the solution. Thank you for helping me. Michael.

Ever since Version 146 was automatically downloaded, all I see is a blank page and several icons across the top representing individual mail. (See pic attached. Before 146, I saw all my mail listed.) The program freezes; I can't click on any icons. Most of the time I am just waiting for something to load. I have to fight to get my folders to even see my mail. How do I get Version 145 back?

I want to switch back from the Thunderbird Release channel to the ESR channel but I do not understand the steps. Please help me with the exact, easiest steps. I am running Win 11.

After updating my Thunderbird mail application from version 128 to 140, the shortcut icon for composing a message is no longer responsive and I cannot create a new message from it. I can no longer create a new message without right-clicking on a sent email and using “Edit as New Message (E)”. How can I get back to being able to create a message from the message creation shortcut?

Enough is enough—every update brings problems, crucial add-ons stop working, and now drag and drop attachments have stopped working. It's really inconvenient. Maybe it's time to stop this nonsense and implement paid subscriptions or purchases, but in a way that makes everything work.

Dear demons, when will you release a new update that will fix the old update? When will all the normal features be working? It's time to get back to real work for the benefit of society.

I have been using Thunderbird Mail for many years and have been satisfied with it. I followed the recommendation to upgrade to version 145. Then disaster struck: the previous version was completely deleted, including all email accounts and address books. How is that possible?

My windows 10 PCs are running ver 140 (and say they are running the latest ver and no updates are available, but my W11 Pc is running v144. When I try and copy profile from 140 to 144 about 1/3rd of the directories are missing. I usually do to this prior to going on a trip when I copy from desktop pc running W10 to laptop with W11. Last time I did this there were no problems as both were running v140, but now that the laptop upgraded itself to ver144 that's no longer possible as a third of the directories end up missing - things like Inbox, Trash, Drafts, Archive etc which are fairly important. I've paused all Thunderbird updates until the problem is resolved. Can you help please?

Hello, I reported this problem and you replied with a solution and that was to downgrade to version 142. My question is: Then what ? Will I be stuck with version 142 for years or is Thunderbird working on a solution to this problem because presently updating to any version such as 144 only continues to erase local folder contents. Thank you for your support Douglas Noades

I recent got the new thunderbird update. However i also loss all my saved messages and local folders and my contact email addresses. I really need that information for some IRS imformation. Plus u also get nothong but a bid Donate now message in the body of thunderbird. I have already donated several times. I need my information now. I am quite upset about this loss is data and email addresses.

While attempting to upgrade my Ubuntu Thunderbird client, I saw the attached screen. I'm concerned because of the unsophisticated style of the page, and the fact that it asks for my password, which makes me think "phishing". Can some trustworthy person confirm that this is a legitimate screen?

Running into a strange issue where the welcome message page does not go away when clicking between messages. I already attempted to remove the message pane all together. (F8) but nothing seems to make it go away. Usually upon launching Thunderbird it will show the welcome message but will go away when navigating between messages.

I'm stuck using MacOS 10.14 right now, so I can't use anything newer. I know everything listed here is an old, unsupported release with its own security concerns. Let's get that out of the way. OK, good...

Right now, I'm on TB 102.15.1, and I'm wondering about TB 115. If I go to the About box, it's prompting me to update to 115.10.1.

If I read the release notes for 115.10.1, it says, rather worryingly:

Known Issues unresolved

After changing password on an IMAP account, the account could become locked due to too many failed login attempts.

Does anyone know if this particular bug was fixed via later releases in the 115esr series?

I'd rather not leave TB 102 if the above bug is still a concern.

Thanks!

I'm on the Release channel, but was updated to 142.0 Beta. Surely this is wrong. I am not on the Beta channel. I just want to stay updated to the most recent stable release.

Thunderbird version 142 seems to have affected OWL. One of my email accounts that is on a microsoft server has completely disappeared. Please help. Am I able to go backwards to a prior version.
