I want to try the latest version of TB without updating and therefore clobbering my previous version.

I've done this in the past , but with each new release, this becomes harder and harder and harder, because all sorts of stuff is run behind my back, and invariably my existing installation gets clobbered one way or another. I think there used to be a web page that explained how to do this, maybe for the purpose of trying nightly builds, but if it still exists I cannot find it.

I don't mind copying my profile, I just want to be able to keep using the old version if I don't like the new version, or until I can do all the necessary customizations to undo all the unnecessary (for me) changes that have been made.

Please do not answer "use portable TB" unless you tell me the exact steps to do that when there is an existing installation that should not be touched. This is for win 7 64bit.

Thanks for the help.

Migrating from Apple Mail to Thunderbird 60.3.1

Maybe 10 years ago I used Thunderbird on my iMac. - I use Thunderbird at work and decided I miss some of the more advanced features that are not in Apple Mail on my iMac at home. - Especially after reading that Thunderbird could now share both iCloud's Apple Calendar and Contacts. - I am currently using Mac OS 10.11.6. A little behind the times, but I have been using apps that wouldn't run on the newer Mac OS. - Before installing the new version, I opened the old version of Thunderbird, went to the Tools/Account Settomgs and found the directory in the Mac OS library that needed deleted. and deleted it. I did this because most of my logins and settings have changed a lot and I want to import the current local folders and settings from the current version of Apple Mail. I use my email local folders extensively as a type of database to keep a history of purchases and other important information in the local folders. - I then used App Cleaner to delete the ten year old version of Thunderbird and the support files that were not part of the library folder, such as the actual application, Thunderbird. - I then downloaded and installed Thunderbird 60.31.1. Launched it. Chose not to make it my default because I want to make sure it works first. then went to tools/import and noticed I didn't have the the option to Import Everything. See Jpg. attached. - Then decided to try to import just the Mail. Chose Apple Mail. then Next. Got the No Mailboxes were found in the import message. Again, see the jpg. I did the same for the settings and got the "No Application or file to import data from was found" error message. See yet another jpg. I clicked Finish and went to the forums to search for a solution, but found nothing. So here I am. -what did I miss in this setup, migration from Apple Mail and Integration with contacts and Calendar (iCloud based)? Thank you for your assistance.

I couldn't get any of my screen shots to upload. Sorry.

I am trying to setup Thudnerbird to retrieve my Outlook365 emails from the University.

The software has been able to validate the servers, IMAP and SMTP, however when testing I receive an error message saying the the "Username or Password is invalid".

I don't know how much this relates but I am afraid the Micorosoft accounts through school use some kind of double authentication or similar.

Any help will be greatly appreciate it.

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, 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?

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.
