Forum Thunderbird zajednice

Running Win10, all the sudden I'm getting Not Responding messages, failures to connect to server, and slow deleting of emails. I tried everything: uninstalling/reinstalling; running on troubleshooting mode; checking compatibility. Nothing works. Any ideas?

Thank you

Why are many calendar events just disappearing? This has been happening for the last three months!! Calendar events were there yesterday, are gone today! I tried in protected mode and lost even more events. Now even more are missing. Several I have re-input over the last months, and they get gone too. What’s going on!! There are no addons, no sync. Nothing but Thunderbird. any one else having this bug?? What file are events stored in and how do I read them?? Any way to recover anyof these?? There is a lot of information and annotations, such as cancellations and rescheduleing and the whole bunch just disappeared? Many older events are still intact but I sure don't know for how long!!! My profile is on a separate drive and is accesed by both W10 and 11 for email and calendar. No problems except they are missing using either system!! It's a bug!! Anyone interested in looking at it??

This is actually the same in Firefox, and both only since today, working fine before:

Typing Ctrl-C does nothing, Ctrl-X deletes whatever is selected, but it does not end up in the clipboard. In fact, if the clipboard contains something, it will be removed (Win-V still shows it, but it can no longer be pasted). When copying from somewhere else, pasting with Ctrl-V works.

AFAICT, no issues with any other programs.

Latest versions of FF (151.0.2) and Thunderbird (151.0.1), on Windows 10.

What could be wrong?

Thanks, Ralf

Hi, For at least two weeks, Thunderbird has been stalling, not responding, and crashing (but not the type that sends a crash report). Every time it begins downloading messages, it stalls. I compacted folders, checked what your forums recommend, and still nothing. I have Thunderbird on a Win10 XPS laptop and a Win11 Dell desktop, new and full of specs. Uninstalled it and reinstalled it. Same. There has to be a bug in the new version, my guess, since it was working perfectly until the latest update. See images from my Win10 laptop right now. Please advice!!! I am at wits' end since I need Thunderbird to do my emailing!!! Or else I will have to find another email handler.

MESSAGES IN 'INFOLDER' ARE DELETED AFTER ABOUT 5-7 DAYS, and can't be found I have looked in all settings to try to find the reason, but don't find anything helpful tnx, Al email [edited from public] @ec.rr.com

Ich erhalte die Meldung "Nachrichten konnten nicht in die Mailbox-Datei geschrieben werden. Stellen Sie sicher, dass das Dateisystem Ihnen Schreibrechte einräumt und genügend Speicherplatz zur Verfügung steht, um die Mailbox zu kopieren." Speicherplatz ist genügend vorhanden. Bis jetzt konnte ich meine Emails problemlos abholen. Bin erreichbar über Telefon [edited] oder Handy [edited phone#'s from community support forum]

Previously, when I run a full scan, a box will appear at the bottom of the screen stating that full scan is running and when it's finished, this appears full scan is finished and stayed on until I check Norton. This has not occurred for a long time. How can I fix this? Thank you for your consideration and I look forward to hearing from you.

I kindly request your assistance in checking and resolving this issue as soon as possible. Please let me know if you need any additional information or screenshots of the error message.

Your prompt support would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

On my PC - Initial problem was T-bird took forever to load and virtually all new msgs went to TRASH and I had to move to IN-Box. Per help from David - Saved off profile, and reinstalled thunderbird from thunderbird.net. No change. Then UNINSTALLED T-Bird (profile still intact). Now just attempts to open "Looking up imap.comcast.net", but won't open/connect and to close the app I must use WIN Task Master. Can't get to any msgs, etc. Also, in the past when I was able to open, the banner or bar at the top of the page had hundreds of email icons. I sometime have over 1000 emails in my in-box!! I have years worth of emails in folders on T-Bird which I don't want to loose. Help. Thank you. I have a "working" version (with the "trash" and slow loading issue per above) on my laptop, so I can access suggestions on that version of T-Bird. You could also send any suggestions to x@gmail.com

My emails were all working (accounts were setup fine). Then, recently, when I opened Thunderbird, the main area (where my messages are displayed) is empty. If I choose another folder, still empty. BUT, the folders all say that there are messages in them (see the attached screenshot)

I have tried the following... 1. Opening Thunderbird in Troublshooting mode: This works, and the messages appear. But I don't want to have to open troubleshooting mode every time. 2. I have ZERO extensions installed, so asking to disable them obviously wont do anything. 3. I have tried to repair the folders (I have tried to repair the default inbox folder, and then tried to repair them all ... nothing worked). 4. I have backed up my thunderbird files, and tried reinstalling Thunderbird. Still didn't work. 5. I tried these three steps ... https://www.mboxtooutlook.org/blog/thunderbird-inbox-missing-emails.html Didn't work either.

Any other suggestions?

I have downloaded Thunderbird on to my desktop but it won't open. Please help me to open and use Thunderbird.

Thunderbird 147.0esr Email arrives. I open it It has the usual 'view this thread' link I click that link waterfox opens all of my home pages.....not the email I have disabled all add ons, in both thunderbird and waterfox....I have changed profile in waterfox & synced with firefox.

Several times a day, TB pops up a message box with the following...

The folder 'Inbox on email@domain.com could not be compacted because writing to folder failed. Verify that you have enough disk space, and that you have write privileges to the file system, then try again.

I have a few accounts in TB, and it does this for all of them, but at seemingly random times.

Everything seems to work, it's just annoying to have these messages pop up.

I have 0.9Tb free space on the disk, so I don't think it's a lack of space! I also have admin rights to the file system, so that's not it either.

Anyone any idea why I get this? Thanks

Each time I start TB, I get this message: "The folder 'Inbox on redacted@aol.com' could not be compacted because writing to folder failed. Verify that you have enough disk space, and that you have write privileges to the file system, then try again." What does this mean and what can I do to fix it. Thanks. M. Campbell

I keep getting a pop up when opening my mail that reads, "The folder on inbox (then gives my email address) could not be compacted because writing to folder failed. Verify that you have enough disk space and that you have write privileges to the file system and then try again".

I don't understand!!!
