Thunderbird Portable

I lost the contents of my "abook.mab" I still have those in the "abook.mab.bak". Can anyone advise how to regain the lost contents of my "abook.mab"?

I made a copy of "abook.mab.bak" in another folder, change the file name by deleting the “.bak” and put it back in the “:\PortableApps\ThunderbirdPortable\Data\profile” but it did not solve the problem.

Thanks, Ariel.

Fresh install of Thunderbird Portable 2.0.0.9
installed enigmail 0.95.6
gpg for thunderbird 1.4.7

works as expected.

I have a copy of my gpg app dir at x:\ProgramFiles\CommonFiles\gpg\App
and a copy of my gpg data dir at x:\ProgramFiles\CommonFiles\gpg\Data

I have put thunderbirdsettings.ini into the same dir as the launcher.
I have added the following lines to the ini:
GPGPathDirectory=X:\PortableApps\CommonFiles\gpg\App
GPGHomeDirectory=X:\PortableApps\CommonFiles\gpg\Data

However in the gpg preferences dialog the gpg being used is still pointing to the /app/gpg copy

According the installation instruction you only need to double click on the download button and choose your drive to install onto.

But when I click on download I only get the pop up screen asking for installation, save or cancel.
When I choose for installation there is no option to choose where the program needs to be installed. It goes directly onto my PC.

But I want to install it directly onto my USB stick.

How can I manage it?

I just downloaded thunderbird portable , we are taking a trip tomorrow and I though this would be fabulous , seeing as I already use Thunderbird ... I copied all of my mail over and have used it all afternoon ... Tried moving it to a couple of different computers and it worked great ... I figured I would try it on a different service provider - When I started it -- It ask me to set up my account ... I don't know if I unplugged it to early last time .. I used it - But now it does not work on my original computer .. Please help ..

I have a few mails with jpg near 2meg in attachment
from gmail and laposte.net all the jpg are corrupted
not the good size, and when I go to the web interface
they are correct.

it's a fresh installation of thunderbird-portable on a sandisk key of 4gig,
500 meg used, the key, is new, and I have scanned it for bad sectors.

have you got an idea ?

thanks

Don't know what I did (I'm new to this) but none of my apps will run. They all open the my documents folder.

Even the suite itself wouldn't run. I reinstalled it and the menu pops up.

I reinstalled thunderbird but the icon is still missing and even trying to open some of it's subfolders call up the My Documents folder.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

I have (regular) Thunderbird installed on my home (Win 98) machine. I don't use it because it's unstable on this machine (I use SeaMonkey) but it's nice to have when I need an alternate client.

I switched from the regular "Thunderbird 2.0.0.6" to "Thunderbird Portable 2.0.0.6" a few months ago, then I received an upgrade notice to 2.0.0.9. I first thought it would be for "Thunderbird Portable 2.0.0.6," so I clicked [YES] to upgrade, then I happened to think it might have meant for the regular "Thunderbird." I went trhough the forum to try to find out whether the 2.0.0.9 upgrade would be compatible with "Thunderbird Portable 2.0.0.6," and sure enough I found some members were experiencing problems with add-ons.

when I download thunderbird for the U3 there were no tags, and now all my contact cards are gone. Am I suppose to have tags? and y did my card go away? help would be appreciated.

I cannot delete message received with Thunderbird installed on my 4GB Cruzer U3 USB Key. When I try to delete a message I receive the following Alert:

The messages could not be moved or copied to folder ‘Trash’ because writing to folder failed. To gain disk space, from the File menu, first choose Empty Trah, and then choose Compact Folders, and then try again.

I have a lot of space on disk and an Empty Trash and I compact my folders every day
All Thunderbird’s I use on my PC & NB work fine but not on my U3 Key!
Any idea?
