Thunderbird can't access the MacOS Contacts app - MacOS Ventura (13.2.1)

I found this problem while clean installing / setting up TB on a new Macbook Air (M2, 2022).

Installation and setup of mail accounts works fine, but when I open Windows -> Address Book I don't see the macOS Address Book content. And when I go to the MacOS System Settings -> Privacy & Security -> Contacts I do not see the option to 'allow' Thunderbird to access contacts. Which explains why I can't access that MacOS Contacts from TB, but isn't terribly helpful .....

I tried doing a second clean install (created new system account and did it there) and had the same problem.

On the other hand I have TB running on an older iMac (Retina 5k, 27", 2017), also currently running Ventura (13.2.1) and do not have the problem there. And when I go to MacOS System Settings -> Privacy & Security -> Contacts I see and entry for TB with a toggle set to give it access to Contacts.

But with the iMac I installed TB back in 2017 or 2018 ..... and so it was installed under an earlier version of MacOS (perhaps High Sierra or Mojave ...)

My guess is that something has changed in how Thunderbird 'negotiates' access to the Calendar app - but I don't know if that's a TB or a MacOS issue ..... and most importantly don't how to fix it???

setting up thunderbird: how do I get it to download ALL existing messages, old and new?

Hello wise people of the internet,

I've just installed Thunderbird, which happily downloaded the last couple years worth of messages... and then stopped. I can't get it to pick up the rest, even though there's another fifteen years of email that I'd like to preserve on this computer. I tried repairing the folder: it flickers through the existing emails for a while, and maybe stretches the stop date another month or two back, but otherwise doesn't change anything.

I'd be very grateful for any suggestions! I'm truly just using this as a backup for my emails (I continue to read and send within the browser), so it's important to me to get it all here.

Thanks in advance!

Problems with opening specific emails in certain mail threads, and how to archive these threads outside Thunderbird in my PC

Hi!

I recently got Thunderbird (TB) re-installed in my new PC.

In the re-installed TB, certain mail threads are sort of compressed, so I cannot click and open older specific emails, or did not find the right method to do it. Also, Archive or Remove are the only two buttons active. The drop-down thread with Save As (and other options) has disappeared.

Can I still click and open specific emails in a thread in TB? If so, how do I do it? Am I missing something?

Can I still find the Save As option, to save email threads (as backup) outside TB, in my PC? If so, how do I do it?

Why are only some threads compressed? It seems to happen randomly. For example, the thread most recently active was compressed, along with some other, older threads.

All threads I refer to as compressed has a branching-like symbol to the left of the subject line. This symbol never appeared in my old TB. In my old TB there was never a problem archiving a thread outside TB.

Many thanks in advance!

Best, Stefan Andersson

Migrating profile to new PC fails

I'm trying to migrate a 45 GB profile to a new computer the usual way: I have copied the profile folder, started Thunderbird Profile Manager, created a new profile assigning this folder as the profile folder. I'm working in offline mode. The old PC runs on Windows, the new on Debian Linux.

All of the email addresses show up, but NONE of the emails are displayed. The folders appear as empty. Interestingly enough, I can search among the emails though using Ctrl-K: upon entering a keyword, emails containing it are found and enlisted, however, I cannot read the full email: clicking on them leads to an error message saying email cannot be loaded since I'm working offline. Ctrl-Shift-K does not work.

I have tried the same process on a different PC running on Windows: here at least some of the emails are displayed, but not all of them, although I have followed exactly the same procedure as before, as described above.

I'm out of ideas. What could be the problem?
