Hi, since this morning (220322) I cannot access Thunderbird any longer. Instead I get asked to 'Set Up Your Existing Email Address'. When I tried to do this I get the following message: 'Unable to log in at server. Probably wrong configuration, username or password. I am not sure if I am using the right password. Is there any way to check. I am really worried all my old emails are lost. Is there any way to recover those?

Profiles sharing accounts or folders

Hi and thanks in advance for your help.

I am using two different profiles for 2 different users.

The first user has account A and the other user has account A and also a personal account B (I will simplify because there are more than 2 accounts for each profile).

The problem is that the shared account A has and important size and this disk space is being duplicated with the same content.

It would be great if both profiles could share the same INBOX folder or even the full email account but keeping their separate profiles.

If my memory serves me right, time ago you could right click in the folder and change the path/location, but this is not possible now.

Any idea ?

Thanks for your help

I quote from a previous correspondence to illustrate my problem: Question: Quote There are no mab files on the new PC's profile. How do I get my old address book on the new PC? Unquote Answer: Quote Copy the mab files into the profile folder of the new computer, and rename the 2 sqlite files, with TB closed. On restart, TB should convert the mab files to sqlite files, and create abook.mab.bak and history.mab.bak. Unquote

I get what needs to be done, but since I am not privy to the preceding communication, it could be the reason, I do not fully understand what is meant which files the quote renaming the 2 sqlite files unquote refer to, as pasting the abook.mab and History.mab and changing their file extension to sqlite failed to bring the desired result. Likewise, attempts to change the file extensions on abook.sqlite and history.sqlite brings no joy.

My version of Thunderbird is 91.3.2. I use win10 pro.

Can anyone bring some clarity? Thank you in anticipation

Hello,

when i) I open the computer, ii) when I click " Get messages" or the Thunderbird does it itself (I have settings to download every 5 minutes) not ALL messages are downloaded into my inbox (from Gmail) but only 2 messages. And then another 2, etc.

This is very tiring and lasting. Can you help me set up Thunderbird to always pull ALL messages? Tx and brgds Marko

I watched the video about how to transfer thunderbird 91 and have attempted to follow it. I get to the point where it says to install thunderbird on your new device but do not open any account. Everytime I install it(which I have done TMTC times now) it installs my old thunderbird account that transferred without my contacts or archived files. I tried just opening it by custom instead but that brought me somewhere where there is no 'roaming' to go back to. at top is says local disk C>program data>mozilla>updates>D788FSDD33499EC2. What am I doing wrong? I have uninstalled thunderbird several times. I don't want the mess that transferred that now I can't get rid of. I want the set up as it is on this thinkpad that I am returning to lenovo because is has multiple problems, like people can't hear me on zoom. Thunderbird, however, works fine on this thinkpad. I need the archived messages by year; what transferred when my husband did it is a bunch of archived messages not separated by year with a lot of them missing. I need my contacts. None of them transferred when he did it. They are all still here on this thinkpad, but I need to get them transferred so I can return this and get the refund(lenovo agrees this is a defective unit that I purchased on Black Friday sale but they don't have one like it and aren't expecting any for a few months so they said I needed to just return it)

As above. clicking on the downloaded file appeared to work, but upon first run it asked to be copied into the apps folder, but instead of going there it was copied to Volumes as a mounted device. It was the same .dmg filename, which when clicked just tried to install again. It appeared on the desktop as a device and had to unmount it.

Maybe I should try version 68 of T-bird, but how? Where to find it?

Thanks. Bill Blue, [removed email from public]

I cannot setup thunderbird 91.7.0 - 64 bit to yahoo with imap and oauth2. I checked various articles to make sure I use the correct parms. Even tried using the auto parms thunderbird provides which seem to be correct. I go thru the process of entering my password and clicked AGREE to "I agree to the Yahoo OpenID Oauth terms". Then I get the error. I made sure no yahoo.com cookies. I made sure no stored yahoo passwords.

Am I missing something? Hopefully something simple. Bob

Move Thunderbird from old to new computer

I have a 56 GB Thunderbird folder containing profiles, mail messages and settings. No matter what I try, which method I use, I can't get Thunderbird to open under a migrated profile and populate with messages, settings and the like.

Due to the size of the database, I have tried copying it to D:/Thunderbird, while the program resides on C:. I have also tried putting it in C:/users/RRP/AppData/Roaming/Thunderbird. In each case, I create a profile pointing to the specific profile within the Profiles folder. I have done so using the "Help" menu appraoch within the program, and I have also done it using "thunderbird.exe -p." Nothing works.

I have blown away Thunderbird, blown away the 56 GB database, recopied the database from the donor computer, made sure all specifications (size, number of items, number of folders) all match the first time I did it, and it will not recognize it.

I have not opened Thunderbird and gone through the establishment of new mail accounts, because I have assumed that if I copy the Profiles over in the large folder named Thunderbird, the program will pick up all previous accounts, passwords, etc., and establish those accounts without my doing it one at a time. Perhaps this is the problem. I presently have 4 email accounts, and I have been hoping that by copying 56 GB of data over from old to new, the rest would happen automatically, and the program on the new computer would open looking and functioning exactly as on the former computer.

Suggestions?

Moving Thunderbird to a new PC

I have TB v 52.9.1 on my old Windows XP PC. I have installed TB v 91.7.0 (64-bit) on my new Windows 10 PC and want to transfer my profile to the new PC.

So I copied the entire Thunderbird folder to the correct place on the new PC. The first time I open TB on the new PC, the mail shows OK. If I close it and then reopen it all the mail accounts show up but with no messages in the mail folders. The filters, account settings etc are still there but the messages disappear for all mail accounts after restarting TB...

The ImapMail folder is showing that the messages and mail folders are there, but they are not displaying.

profiles.ini is showing the correct profile name, which comes from the old profile I am trying to transfer.

I have tried reloading this several times, and the same always happens.

Can anyone suggest what to try next?

4-1-22. Not a joke. Been using Thunderbird email program for 20-30 years. I routinely down load gmail which was working. Refused to download comcast.net. Would not accept any password despite changing password on Xfinity's site. Help showed that the version on my computer was BETA. I never load BETA anything. Went to your site and downloaded and older January link. Nothing worked with anything older that I tried. It tried to make me start over with the IMAP and POP. I am afraid that I may have lost my addresses and 20 years of email archive. It probably took me over 1 week to link to gmail and comcast years ago. Will I have to do this again?

I have a complete c:\ back-up. from a week ago. If I recover the partition, will Thunderbird at least work with gmail again or has there been some major change with Thunderbird?


A prompt answer would really be appreciated.

Moving TB accounts to a new Windows 10 install fails

I've gone through all of the steps for transferring accounts to a new computer (1. Save Roaming/thunderbird to USB location. 2. copy saved over roaming/thunderbird on new computer) quite a few times now. But every time I start TB on the new computer, it ALWAYS asks me to set up an email account and NEVER brings in old accounts, local folders or any message filters. I've even tried using MozBackup which said it succeeded, but still only started up with asking to set up email and no saved data was present.

My main issue right now is getting the "Local Folders" data onto the new computer and getting all of my MessageFilters in the new installation.

So far I have no idea how to get Local Folders moved over, and copying MessageFilters.dat from the old installation to the new installation does nothing. In fact, the only text in the saved dat file is a version number and a logging flag.

I've also completely uninstalled ThunderBird twice (also manually removing the data from AppData each time). Which did not help.

Can anyone help with this?
