Thunderbird Portable

The early bird catches the worm? Not this time: I upgraded my MacBook Pro to OS X Mavericks just when it was released last night and since then Portable Thunderbird stopped working. It just hangs after being launched. Any other users affected by that? And more importantly: any idea how to solve the problem?

Someone mentioned this on IRC and I thought I'd put it here in the tracker:

OpenPGP PGP/GPG v1.4.15rev2 is accessing system's gpg (inside c:\program files\ instead of c:\portable folder), observing such, when i change some configuration inside OpenPGP's preference , advanced gpg commandline.

Havent tested it myself though.

How can I do this ?

OS windows 7-64
Allways jump microsoft outlook

Please a step by step instruction.

Hi,

Tb installed on a flashdrive for using offline at home. Plugged it in the netbook, offline, could read the mails, but no pictures. Half an hour later no mails available, folders on the left-hand pane not longer existing! Where are the mails?
This Problem occurred several times. I deleted TB and everything else, installed again, for a short period ok-then...look above!

What might be the problem, and, of course, the solution of this riddle?
Thanks for reading this and your hints,
Salto

Please can have GPG for Thunderbird Portable 1.4.15?

GnuPG 1.4.15 released(2013-10-05)

I'm pretty sure I've narrowed this down to a bug with the PA version of TBird. It's crashing whenever I try to load in a new extension, in this case the Lightning and Google Provider extensions. I haven't been able to replicate it in the desktop version of TBird 24 that I downloaded directly from their website. That seems to work fine in Win7.

What happens is I go to Add-ons-->Install Add-on from File, then navigate to the .xpi file, the entire app freezes up when I hit 'add'.

Addendum: I've tried this on two different Win7 machines with the same results.

Hi to all

I'm using thunderbird 24 with extension mail merge 3.5.0

The problem is that nothing happens.

I have a set of well-formed csv file (already used some other times).
I checked that the variables are all correctly typed (they are only 3).

When I start mail merge the working window appear for a moment but then e-mails are not created.

I've looked at the error console and find this:

I was forced to move away from TB portable months ago because it kept crashing my system (Win7 64) every time I received mail (sometimes if there were only a couple of emails retrieved it would crash to blue screen when I tried to view the retrieved emails). Seems to have been a common problem as there was a lot about this happening on the net. Couldn't find any solution to stop it crashing. Moved to DreamMail which worked well. Now the European support site for DreamMail is closing up.

Hi all,

I noticed that the regular Thunderbird has reached version 24, but Portable Thunderbird is at version 17. Why the gap?

i changed my tb display font via options->display->formatting->fonts->advanced. according to http://kb.mozillazine.org/Font_settings_in_Thunderbird this should also affect the compose window.
but it doesn't: the main display window is changed to the font i want, but when i write a new mail or reply, the font in the compose window is still unchanged (some monospace, which i dont like.)
i also switched the html option of my accounts off, so i only send plain text.
