Thunderbird Portable

I feel like a noob, but here goes.

I have a version of TBP that I use on my main desktop. At some point, I must have hit "Update" and now have mess. I know how to transfer a profile from an installed to a portable version (copy profile) but it seems that some of my information is in the portable location, and some at the "Application Data" location. Copying either makes the new portable version act like a new install. Does this make sense? (Be kind.) Is there a way to save this, or should I just use this as an opportunity to migrate to TB 3.0?

EDIT:
In this posting I describe a workaround for the problem: https://portableapps.com/node/20611#comment-127130

Hello,

after I installed the latest german version of Thunderbird portable 2.0.0.23 the add-ons Enigmail and Lightning are in English language. When I went back to 2.0.0.22 the were in german again. Any ideas?

Best regards!

Hi all,

It seems it's 'portable apps problem week' this week

My TP writes two keys (.... = email adres) to the registry:
-one to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\UnreadMail\.....
-one to HKEY_USERS\\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\UnreadMail\.....

I can remove them from the registry, but every time I ran TP they're there again.
It's a bit annoying, as I cannot run TP on a PC without leaving 'a trail'

Running TP 2.0.0.23, only addon is Lightning 0.9 for my calender.

"Unable to save your message as draft
Error writing temporary file"

I am moving my OUTLOOK mail etc. to TBird on a new desktop with multiple drives and partitions. I will point TBird to store its data on a separate partition and will setup a share on the folders. I think I can make all of that work OK.

After upgrading to 2.0.0.23 Thunderbird portable crashes when trying to reply / forward a message.
OS is Win XP Pro SP3.
Thunderbird is installed on a memory stick with enough free capacity.
Detailled information about the crash might be included in the 45k big file file df6b_appcompat.txt which is mentioned in the error message.
How should I submit the information included in the file?

What is the problem with TB?

Thanx for your help!

I just got a prompt to upgrade my TBP to the latest version and of course I did as I am told only to find all my emails were wiped and TBP asking if I wanted to set up my email accounts.

That's naughty.

Good thing I back up my emails regularly.

Anyone else had this experience or was i just unlucky?

Thunderbird doesn't seem to be able to see my profile anymore, all the emails,addy book and andall are still inthe folders. But when TB loads itwants to create a new account. Any Help iwould bevery thankfull for. I use this driveandtb for my homebiz. and on the road travel and need torecover what is missing.

Thanks again,
trp

When launching Thunderbird portable 2.0.0.22 I get an error about an unresponsive script continuing does not appear to work the script does not appear to disable any functionality. Any ideas?

Using TB Portable I select a group of emails to delete them. Then I want to unselect just only one of them by pressing CNTL + Left Mouse Button but nothing happens. Many Thanks.
