Thunderbird: форум сообщества

I have lost the possibility use Finnish dictionary for spell checking after Thunderbird upgrade to version 60.3.1. How could i revert to older version and prevent automatic updates?

I came across a site "mozdev.org" that gives instructions as to how to download a file called "mailtweak-0.16.xpi" Firefox will not allow me to download it and I cannot find it in the list of Firefox add-ons.

Please advise

Just starting out with Thunderbird - downloaded 60.5.0 onto Windows 7 Home Premium laptop. Trying to configure a new GMail account using the default setup. Information fills in, then attempts to check password. Message "configuration could not be verified" then appears. Account email address and password work OK on GMail web version. Not sure what to check next.

I have changed from Shaw to Telus, the Telus Tech is unsure if I will loose all my folders and address book within the Mozilla Thunderbird when she changes the Server Settings?

I am virtually certain i was able to easily do this using the import tools on the version of thunderbird I had about a year ago. But Outlook Express is no longer an option when I open the import tool.

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!

I'm trying to move my Thunderbird email reader from a W7 desktop to a new W10 desktop. I been trying all the suggestions on the "http://kb.mozillazine.org/Moving_your_profile_folder" site and nothing works. Any ideas what is preventing the profiles.ini from loading my profile? I've tried many iterations of the ini file and paths with no success. Any ideas where to look?

Thank you Regards, HW

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.

Hi,

I have used Thunderbird for some years and it works well for me. I don't do anything fancy, just mail, calendar and tasks as a stand-alone user.

I'm migrating to a new pc. - I downloaded and installed Thunderbird. - I did not create any email accounts at this point. - I copied my profile from my old pc as per Mozilla support guidance. - Open Thunderbird - Now I can see my mail, folders and layouts perfectly.

But I cannot see anything at all to do with Events and Tasks. - Tools-Addons says Lightning is installed. - No 'Events and Tasks' in menu bar - No 'Calender' tab in Tools-Addon options-Lightning - No 'Events and Tasks' panel

From 'Events and Tasks' tab on old pc I have exported calendar (Home.ics) ready to import to new pc but I can see no option to import this.

I'm sure I must have done something wrong. I would be most grateful for any advice. I am not a tecchie; I am but a basic user.

thanks john

This is a new install on my laptop. Almost everything on my office PC synched up on the laptop except T-bird. I loaded it and it found my credentials but it keeps asking me to sign in with Google. I enter my User ID and click next but nothing happens. What am I doing wrong or what is T-bird not doing?

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.

Help! TB 60 continuously crashes on all of our machines so we're using 52.9 until the bug is figured out, BUT TB insists on auto-updating to version 60 despite turning off auto-update settings. These are the exact non-default update settings we have. Can you help me figure out why TB continues to auto-update?

I want to manage, send and receive Skypeᵀᴹ messages and calls in Thunderbird. Is it possible? And is possible to chat privately with a Thunderbirdᵀᴹ address, similar to peer-to-peer private chats?

I have installed and am running Thunderbird on my new laptop, and would like to use the profile from my old computer. I have followed the instructions provided, and copied the profile (renamed) into the folder on the new laptop. When I run "thunderbird.exe-p" I receive a message "cannot find Thunderbird.exe-p" and asked to try again, but without success. I would be grateful for help on this problem. With thanks Alan
