A computer is still running Thunderbird 102 happily. That is the plan -- the user is NOT prepared to deal with 115 and later, and the changes therein. Somehow, even though it was supposedly set to only install updates when you told it to, it downloaded and began the process of installing 115. So it's up and running now at 102, but says that when you restart, it will go to 115. Please don't tell me how wonderful 115 is; been there, done that, it's not my machine but it's someone near and dear to me who detests computers in the first place but has to use them so gratuitous changes are utterly unwelcome....

So is there a way to delete something and tell Thunderbird to just keep running 102 and not do the upgrade? If I have to reinstall 102 on top of the old profile, which contains many gigabytes of IMPORTANT mail, I can deal with that. I assume that the profile hasn't been munged yet by the update so I'm asking now. Thanks!

my windows 11 was crashed and browsing was not working so i repaired my window, thunderbird lost all profiles and data from the program but all the emails and folders names i had are visible in local directory, so i tried to setup new account and then change local directory to my old directory. i did this few times before and it worked perfectly but now this method is not working and only handful of emails imported i need help and solution, these are years of emails and very important last few weeks important emails are missing

I recently updated Thunderbird to 115.3.3. When the update was complete it appears to have split my profile into two and created two of Inbox, Drafts, Sent, and Trash. I use Earthlink which is the name of the POP3 account. Now there are Inbox, Drafts, Sent, and Trash for "Earthlink", and a set for "Local Folders". Junk and Archives are only associated with "Local Folders", and "Outbox" shows up under a "Local Folders" header along with all of the folders I used to organize received messages. When new messages are downloaded they appear in "Inbox / Local Folders". Nothing appears in any of the "Earthlink / ..." folders.

I don't recall exactly what it looked like before but there was only one set of the primary folders, and the local folders I created to organize my inbox. I have attached screenshots of the the folder navigation pane, as well as the odd organization of the "Account Settings" tab. I am admittedly not an expert. Any help is appreciated.

Hi, David replied to my original question as to why the Folders are not loading off the Yahoo server onto a new computer as they are on my old computer.

The Thunderbird version on the OLD computer utilises a IMAP Mail Server. The version I downloaded yesterday and installed on this new computer utilises a POP Mail Server with no option I can see to change this. Screen Capture attached.

So Presumably I need the IMAP Mail Server version of the App. If I'm correct where would I download it from?

Thank you and kind regards, Mark.

Hi.

I've just installed the latest version of Thunderbird on a clean copy of Windows 11.

Thunderbird comes up with no buttons across the top (Get Messages, Write, Print, Address Book, etc).

I can't see an option for displaying them.

Any suggestions please?

Thanks, Dave.

I'm trying to move Thunderbird to a new PC. Both PC's are running Windows 11. I've followed the instructions for locating my profile. According to "Troubleshooting Information" my profile is supposed to be located at "C:\Users\photo\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\k6i7koof.default-release\Mail\Local Folders". When I click on the "Open Folder" button, I receive an error message that the folder does not exist. When I try navigating to the folder manually, I can not find a "Thunderbird" folder under "AppData\Roaming". I've selected "Show Hidden Files/Folders" under Windows Explorer. I know my profile exists because I can access a set of Local Folders when I'm in Thunderbird. I'd really like to move those folders over to my new PC. Any help to find the profile folder will be much appreciated.

According to Help>About Thubderbird the current version is 115. But searches in my browser tells me the latest version is 105.

Am I not searching deep enough?

Thanks, James

I have downloaded and installed Mozilla Firefox on a new computer through the Edge browser both from the Mozilla site and through the Microsoft store. The installation downloads and installs as it should. Firefox has been selected as the default browser and everything appears as it should. When I open Firefox and type in an address, nothing populates. No site will open on the screen. When I open settings in Firefox, nothing opens. When I open history, it shows that I have been to the sites that I have loaded even though they haven't shown on the browser. I have completely uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it with the same result. I have downloaded Opera browser and it installs correctly, I have downloaded and installed Firefox from Opera and had the same result. Any ideas?

Thanks, John

Hi there.

This is my first post so bare with me.  :-)

We are deploying the 32-bit version of the Firefox Browser to 4 700 clients and the 64-bit version to only 8 clients; all clients on a 64-bit Windows 10 environment. We will migrate to Windows 11 22H2 this year. The manager for the 8 clients says he wants the 64-bits version just because it's...64-bits. No other reason.

I've read that the 64-bit version can not handle Java, Media Players like VLC and mayby some other plugins. Is that still so?

What is the main reason TODAY for using 64-bit Firefox Browser instead of 32-bit, except for the use of 4 GB+ RAM?

Got a new computer and I just wanted to transfer all the contacts in my address book from there to my new computer on Thunderbird rather than painstakingly doing it one at a time! Can I import them all?

XP has been running for years and has a lot of documents and history in the Thunderbird folders. Linux Mint was installed on a different physical drive. Can I point the Linux version Thunderbird to the XP data directory and use both XP and Linux versions of Thunderbird with one set of data files?

Lots of problems migrating from Windows Live Mail. I've imported my contacts, but they are scrambled. The columns contain the wrong information. Is there any way to unscramble them?? Your "Help" often tells me to click on something that does not appear on my computer. Very frustrating to go through help procedures that lead to a blank wall.

I am exporting private messages from Lotus Notes (work account) to the EML format, and would like to view them in Thunderbird without associating them with an existing account. After installation, Thunderbird does not show “Local folders” unless an account is specified.

Is it possible to use Thunderbird to import and view the EML files exported from Lotus Notes only locally, that is as a simple archive not associated with an existing account? I am surprised at not finding information on this after an extensive web search. The closest I found is an article explaining how to read local mail accounts on GNU/Linux:

http://askubuntu.com/questions/192572/how-do-i-read-local-email-in-thunderbird

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!

Microsoft is telling me I need to open a ticket with Thunderbird while I work to address the problem with my microsoft tenet. Basically, I don't seem to be able to get any of the member accounts on my tenet to be able to use thunderbird with their organization email account. Any tips from Thunderbird would be helpful.

I have been able to set up thunderbird for the Admin email for the tenet and it is working.

I just can't seem to get the Microsoft settings right for the other email addresses in the tenet to be able to use any email client other than Outlook.

I'm using TB 45.7.1. I had a ransomware malware, so I chose to wipe the disk and reinstall X7 Pro. Before wiping I backed up C: & D;--both on the same SSD, so I have access to my prior User data. I copied both Local & Roaming old Profiles to my new User TB folders. I followed the directions to open the Profile Manager, but it can only see 1 default profile--iow I can only see the new one installed when i reinstalled TB.

Using TB troubleshooter, I can see both when I click the Show Folder button, but that's all I can do.

I do NOT want to put these OLD emails in the new install, but some of them I may need to look at again to get info that is ONLY in them.

How can I easily switch between them?

I've just copied a file of contacts from my tablet and want to add the contents to my Thunderbird Address Book. There doesn't seem to be any easy way of doing this. Can anyone help? And why doesn't Mozilla include an Import facility as many people must transfer from Outlook or other email program to Thunderbird?

I, and with many others, have the following problem: If I want to create a gmail account in Thunderbird via IMAP, I will arrive at the following screen:

see word doc. 

Whatever I click or do not react in test. We have tried several gmail acoount. All account work via login on the site. Everything that is mentioned on the internet does not work. The security through the site has also been reduced. All virus scanners are disabled, Java updated or reinstalled. And again: many more people have this problem, but no one has received a solution. What else can we (I) do?
