Can’t move thunderbird profile to nas.

more options

Hello.

I have tried everything to try to move my profile to an external drive (a network attached drive in this case, synology).

Every time I follow the guides (using various methods), when I reboot into thunderbird I get an empty (and slightly weird looking) interface, which crashes upon any input.

I have very limited storage in my Mac mini, and I want to move my thunderbolt storage container over to my NAS. This is a synology DS 1618+’attached via 10gbe.

Any further ideas?

Ta!

Miles.

Hello there miles. We have read your message. We try to help you.


copy thunderbolt storage container a apple container to a nas server? Explain me more.

you mean a thunderbird mail folder or complete profile that copied to your Nas server must be?


Disable all add-ons reset toolbars and controls can resolve the problem.


If you guys follow the instructions inside the documents below It can be fixed.

http://kb.mozillazine.org/Moving_your_profile_folder http://kb.mozillazine.org/Sharing_profiles_-_mail http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Manager

Use the profile manager to create a profile anywhere on a computer machine. Also A Nas Server.

Or if you run Thunderbird first times the account wizzard creates the profile in the default location. However, you can always move or remove the profile.

But the last option didn’t t work for you guys? Oke try the documents then and let me know by message.

Tell me more about the interface that doesn't look like it should?Does it stays blank? Inbox gives no reaction , or is still empty after startup Thunderbird.
