Thunderbird Portable

Thunderbird keeps prompting to upgrade to 11.0.1 but it is not on Portable Apps so the upgrade will be the installed version.

Usually Portable Apps upgrades are immediate or just a day or so behind but this one is about a week or more ago.

Does anyone know why there is a delay this time please?

hello everybody.

i've got a problem. there was an automatic update with thunderbird protable. the version 11.0 was installed. but then there was no thunderbird10x-profile. so all my emails since february are away. can anybody help me, to find where my emails are??

thank you.

I have just updated to version 11.0 for both Portable Thunderbird & Firefox. AVG is no longer compatible, is this likely to change or is there an alternative that gives real time protection when using these products.
Thanks

Ich habe Thunderbird Portable seit Dez. 2011 auf meiner portablen Festplatte (via USB) installiert, um es auf 2 Rechnern - Windows XP bzw. Windows7 zu benutzen.

I've routinely used the portable version of Thunderbird from [link to illegal software site removed by mod JTH] - but the latest release is a puzzle I cannot solve. It runs once; the next time I run it, I receive a message that the application is in use. I've checked all the files and it seems that maybe there has been a change in the portable.exe file. Any tips will be appreciated. thanks,

I am somehow not able to find to day the setting where the tabs on TB 11.0 are shown bellow the icons etc.

In Firefox it can be switched, in TB ?

Can someone guide me to the setting?

OS: Win7 SP1 x64
TB: 11.0 portable
Addons: none
Theme: default

Issue: The main Thunderbird window does not display the "glass" transparency effect that has been present since TBird 5.0. Other windows (new message, address book, etc) do show the full aero/glass effect.

This is on a brand-new "install" of TB 11.0 portable, with a completely fresh profile (no accounts and no extensions).

Any ideas on how to re-enable the glass effect in the main window? I'm one of the rare few that actually like that.

Thanks

Thunderbird Portable 10.0.2 –
This was working fine.
Now I can download mail from the Orcon POP3 server on my Win7 system but it fails on my both of my XP systems
(Sending of password did not succeed. Mail server mail.orcon.net.nz responded: re-authentication failure).
- I can download from the Clearnet POP3 server ok.
- SMTP to Orcon works ok.
- No recent Windows updates.
- No update to Thunderbird.
- No settings changed in T’Bird (in any case, it still works on the Win7 system)
- Disabled all T'Bird addons

Can I disable message loading on start-up?

I have a replacement thumb drive and installed TB on it. I want to bring over all settings, mail, address book to the new drive. I was able to copy and paste the profile folder but at the new home page, TB doesn't see the profile and/or wants to start me thru a setup wizard. What am I not doing correctly?
