We keep track of the latest version of Thunderbird via this link: https://product-details.mozilla.org/1.0/thunderbird_versions.json

Since some time it reports the 131.0 version as the latest stable version. I wonder if this is correct, because the release notes page doesn't mention this version at all.

Response from json: LATEST_THUNDERBIRD_ALPHA_VERSION  : 54.0a2 LATEST_THUNDERBIRD_DEVEL_VERSION  : 132.0b2 LATEST_THUNDERBIRD_NIGHTLY_VERSION : 133.0a1 LATEST_THUNDERBIRD_VERSION  : 131.0 THUNDERBIRD_ESR  : 128.3.0esr THUNDERBIRD_ESR_NEXT  :

https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/releases/ Doesn't mention the 131 version.

When manually adjusting the version number in another release notes page, it will show the actual release notes. But it mentions that this release is for testing purposes only. https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/131.0/releasenotes/

Is it possible to change the versions.json to actually show the latest stable version? And perhaps do the same as the firefox_versions.json, to also include the additional ESR channel (esr115).

Thank you in advance

I installed an automatic Mozilla update and as a result could no longer access my Thunderbird email. I tried reinstalling Thunderbird 128.3 Oesr and placing a saved copy of my Profiles on Dropbox to the Thunderbird folder in AppData and rebooting. I have tried many versions of this but always get a message saying an unexpected occur has occurred. How do I recover my email folders (inbox, outbox, and local) and address book? Together they comprise almost 6 gigs.

Everything always worked great until this upgrade emerged.

Thanks, Bob Gloudemans

Since yesterday I have Thunderbird nebula 128.2.3esr on my Windows 10. But I cannot find my calendar and the new left sidebar isn't available, but only a little button on the left upper corner with seven button without function. I've tried a lot, I cannot find any description about a same failure in the Internet.

I've been on Thunderbird for almost 20 years and a Mozilla fan. Have evolved a fairly elaborate configuration of local (POP) email folders, rules, calendar, and accounts to manage & organize email activity, retention, archiving, etc. I've not had to deal with Profiles in previous upgrades and don't have much experience with it.

The recent Oct 1 push of Firefox & Thunderbird 131.0 releases took me by surprise. I was able to re-implement the previous Firefox profile to recover bookmarks, cookies, passwords, etc. However, when T-Bird warned that 131.0 was Beta & unsupported I took the suggestion to download & install the current supported release: 128.3.0 (I was on 128.2.3). Then hell came.

Once downloaded, installed & launched, Thunderbird 128.3 cautioned the new profile created with T-Bird 131.0 was incompatible with previous versions and that I should create a new one, which I did. Still could not get new T-Bird to recognize previous profile, so I tried uninstalling, downloading & reinstalling 128.3 multiple times, each time prompted to create a new profile before proceeding. I tried to follow the previous profile restoration process detailed on support forums & articles, but none seemed specifically relevant to my situation.

I located my profiles in the appdata roaming profile folder, including what I think are most recent based on size of mail folders. Can't determine whether I had just one or several in use due to the extent of my setup. Could really use some help & advice to: 1) Determine which profile was in most recent use prior to T-Bird upgrade. 2) Whether more than one profile was in use. 3) Re-implement the profile I was using on T-Bird 128.2.3 with my new 128.3.0

Regards & many thanks in advance, John C Houston

PS You'll ask why I would upgrade to 131.0 from 128.2.3. Answer: it was on auto-update and 131.0 is what was pushed. No more auto-updates for this guy!

I have updated to the latest version of Thunderbird and it looks like all my account are gone. Black screen with the message "Conversations will be displayed here, use the contact list in the left panel to start the conversation"

But the left panel is blank I cannot select anything, also when I click "show Accounts" on the right top corner of the screen no information is presented.

There is something happening in the background because I can see when new email come in by a message at the bottom of the screen, however I cannot reach any of my email boxes

Any suggestions what to do ?

Hi everyone!

I got a problem and cant find any solution on the internet. My Pc just stopped working and i ordered new parts and installed windows on it. Now i tried to get back all my data and programs from my old HDD, but i cannot find my calendar data.

I stored the calendar on the pc and not the internet (bad decision i guess)

Can someone help me? Does anyone know, where i can find a file or something, to get to my calendar data?

• I installed Thunderbird on pop-os linux (flatpack).
• Copied the *default-release directory from win to pop-os
• Imported *default-release directory
• The mail messages came over fine.
• The calendars from win appear on the left
• But none of the events or tasks from win appear on pop-os

I followed what steps I've found on line. I thought that if the mail came over, the other data should also be there. It appears at some of the calendar information made it, but not the events, etc.

I don't want to re-enter events manually. Is there something missing above?

I followed the instructions for transferring Thunderbird data from an old PC to a new one. ("Moving Thunderbird Data to a new Computer"). The only email messages that made the transfer were the ones I saved from Outlook Express that were imported into Thunderbird on the old PC in 2014. None of the emails existing in my two important account folders (set up in 2014) made the move. Those, of course, are the most important ones. Now what? PS: I am not an IT professional, just a small business owner that needs to transfer emails from the last couple of years to a new PC because the old one is obsolete. PPS: It was not possible to install Thunderbird on the new PC without creating an account - - the installation program refused to move forward to complete the installation without doing this step. If I understand the instructions in "Moving Thunderbird Data to a New Computer, I was not supposed to create any accounts during the installation process. However, that proved impossible - - the installer would not complete the process without doing this and there was no option to skip creating accounts. After I made my first attempt to install the "Thunderbird" folder (containing the Profile folder, etc.) on the new PC, and finding my most important email messages didn't make the trip with the rest of the Thunderbird folder, I tried deleting the account I had set up as a required step in the installation process in order to install TB on the new PC, then uninstalling Thunderbird, in order to clear the account that I had set up (one of the ones I am trying to transfer over). In other words, I tried to start over with installing Thunderbird on the new PC. However, when I downloaded and installed Thunderbird the second time on the new PC, it reinstalled the account I had deleted!

I just ran a couple updates and now every time I open Thunderbird, Firebird opens also. On the ad screen to donate. This never happened until now. It is annoying since it opens over Thunderbird. How do I get it to stop? I do use it as my default browser, but when I want it. Thanks.

Dear Thunderbird team I am an avid user of TB (home desktop Windows PCs), but I have been resting on my laurels on v78 for a few years now. I know, shame on me. I would like to upgrade to a stable "modern" release (emphasis on "stable" please). Can you please advise if I should aspire to end up on 115 or 128, and how I might get there ? From reading some older blogs, there is advice that says.... first go to v91, then v102, then v115, and so. That seems a bit tortuous, but I am happy to do so if that is still the recommended approach.

Also, can you advise on how I manage my Profile through all this, do I need to do various exports/imports as I move through these different versions, etc.

Many Thanks

Hi all,

as per subject, with Thunderbird 128.3.0esr in Multiweek and Month calendar views I can't move elsewhere an event with drag & drop, while I can do it in Day and Week views: am I missing anything?

Many thanks

Tried linking newly installed Thunderbird to an existing Microsoft account, It won't accept my existing Microsoft username (email address) and password, which I verified were correct.

I'm running for quite a time Thunderbird on Windows up to Win11 without any problem. For about 3 years I'm using the same TB profile in dual boot environment with Linux Mint (v21 until last week and now version 22). I understood why I didn't get access from Linux side after the latest TB update in Windows as obviously the file structure and other things had changed to make it incompatible to elder versions.

However, as Linux is now my normal working environment, I've tried it again after upgraded my system to Linux Mint 22 Cinnamon 6.2.9 , kernel 6.8.0-44-generic and failed again, having the same error message when starting the profile: "Thunderbird is already running, but not responding. To use Thunderbird, you must first close the existing process, restart your device, ore use a different profile. "sudo killall Thunderbird" didn't find a running process.

I've tried importing everything in a new profile, which worked (more or less), but failed with all attempts getting access to my local profile. A local profile appears after importing but contains no data, trying to import its data separately doesn't trigger any error message when just ticking "E-Mail", but nothing is imported. When ticking "E-Mail" and "Settings", I'm getting a red alert that asks me to look into the error console which doesn't help either.

What can I do ????

A recent Windows update on my Dell laptop resulted in an unusable copy of Windows(thanks Microsoft). After much time and effort, Microsoft's only solution was to do a fresh install of Windows which we did. Of course all software and apps had to be reinstalled. I have used Thunderbird on this laptop for years successfully. I downloaded the most current verision of Thunderbird and installed it. I then attempted to add my email account. I entered my name, email account name, and password. Message came back, "Configuration found in Mozilla ISP database." Configuration shows Incoming: IMAP, SSL/TLS. Outgoing: SMTP, SSL/TLS. I then clicked on the "Done" box. Next an Xfinity window opens with my username. The next box says "Let's go". I clicked that box. A window pops open that says, "ACCESS DENIED, You don't have access "http://login.xfinity.com/login" on this server. I googled that line and found many responses. I tried many of the solutions shown to no avail. I then contacted Comcast/Xfinity. After hours on the phone and finally reaching Comcast Assurance Level 2, the agent and I tried various things and still to no avail. So, here I am. Anyone there have any ideas on how to proceed. Thanks to anyone who tries.
