Hi all,

Hows it going. I am having problems in running Thunderbird

Ever since I moved everything over to the hard drive, it won't run at all. So I went to delete it all together and it said

" Cannot delete parent.lock It is being used by another person or program. Close any programs that might be using the file and try again."

and the same with any file I tried to delete in the Thunderbird directory.

So I downloaded the newer version 1.5 RC1 same again, I redownloaded the 1.0.7 version and nothing. I have transferred these back to the USB, same thing. I would really appreciate your help. Thanks

help -
Portable thunderbird 1.0.7 beta or 1.5 and portable sunbird cann't start up on magic-pro magic twin system.
Error display - ""The application failed to initialize properly - 0xc0000005"
But portable filezilla, firefox, NVU, openoffice and the installer version of thunderbird did start up normally on magic twin system.

Hi people,

I have a problem, i just prepared my PTB on my HDD on the PC and there the application works fine. But when I copy the flder to my USB-Stick I get a strange screen with some kind of HTML-Tags or something like this.

I hope there is someone who has the same problem.

Maybe it is one of my extensions, but i hope not ^^

I am using TB from a U3 flash drive.

I know you do not have a TB versiono on U3, it is from yourbrainz.com. The problem I am having is that the file size is massive(77mb). I was considering using PTB 1.5 but how do I install and then upgrade my drive without losing the mail that is currently on U3. Does the profile folder contain this info? I have a second flash drive that I could you also for temp transfer.

What do you suggest?

I used portable Thunderbird to look for mails on a computer of a friend. He now has the message "28 mails unread on ... (my mailaddress)" and is not able to get rid of it. However my mailadress is not saved in the registry. There is no ImapMail-folder on his computer (I used IMAP).

Any idea?

i have two mail accounts, one through gmail and a work related through sbcglobal.net
i need to put in a diffferent user name and password for the secure authentication. there isn't any option for me. i am able to do that under outlook 2k3 but i am not able to import those settings. what can i do?

I am just after discovering your incredible idea of running Portable Apps off your USB. I have Portable Firefox 1.5, Thunderbird 1.07 and Sunbird 0.3a1. I like the idea of bringing your files with you everywhere. However I am having problems in trying to get the newsgroup feature of Thunderbird working. I have the RSS feature working. I am trying to get the Microsoft newsgroups to be downloaded but it keeps saying Connection Timed Out

Is there any program (maybe Thunderbird? I tried but I did not get it) that lets me download rss feeds and read them offline? Instead of trying to connect every once I try to read an rss?

My Linux at home is OFFLINE and downloading rss at university would be right if I could read them at home.

Did I miss any special configuration at Thunderbird?

Thank you.

I got latest Portable Thunderbird(PT) and I found strange things with RSS ....
Everytime I run PT for the first time since PC run, it checks mails fine .... but only mail, PT finds no new RSS things ... NONE, even if I try manualy downloading there, etc ...
but if I close PT (checked, process closed) .. and run it again, it downloads RSS properly ...
