sunbird "unable to write to file"

Submitted by uberoi on October 3, 2008 - 6:35pm

I upgraded to 0.9 recently and now I'm unable to "Export Calendar" to any location, whether on the thumbdrive or on the hard-drive of the computer. I get an error message saying "unable to write to [file name].html"

Is this due to some new component of Sunbird? I really love the program, and the new behavior-tweaks, but for now I'll have to downgrade back to 0.8.

I look forward to any newer versions.

AbiWord: Red buttons

Submitted by forpeterssake on October 1, 2008 - 11:07am

All the buttons in AbiWord Portable have a red field behind them, rather than the gray chrome of the rest of the application. There is even a red field behind the AbiWord logo when I alt+tab to the program. This does not appear to alter the functionality of the program. I'm using AbiWord Portable 2.6.4 on Windows 2000 Pro.

[Fixed] Sunbird Portable 0.9 leaves folder behind

Submitted by Bart.S on October 1, 2008 - 7:31am

This seems similar to Thunderbird Portable, but in case of Sunbird Portable I can reproduce the issue.

The empty folder "$APPDATA\Mozilla\Sunbird\Profiles" is left behind after a fresh install.
Also if I delete the complete Data folder and launch SunbirdPortable.exe, the folder will be created and left behind.

problems with sunbird portable

Submitted by evafan on September 26, 2008 - 12:02pm

I recently chose this program to log medical events of a loved one. I have found it very useful. However I have encountered some glitches.The events will not allow you to save all the data at one take. Secondly I was not smart enough to turn off auto updates. The other day the program updated itself not giving me the opportunity to refuse. It seemed to go ok! Now the program seems to be saving properly. However I had several duplicate entries. I fixed some of these and found them missing entirely when I restarted. I have lost the data for these entries.

Sunbird: How to reinstall a skin from an old version?

Submitted by winterwolf on September 24, 2008 - 10:37pm

Hi,

I just updated Sunbird to 0.9, but i don't like the new skin/theme. Is there a way to install the one that came with 0.8 without reinstall the entire programme. I currently have 0.8 backup in a zip file, so that i could restore the file i seen.

But my question is, witch file i need to restore to have the skin/theme from 0.8 to my current installed version (0.9)?

Hope someone can help.
