Thunderbird Portable

Hi. Can we get an official Thunderbird 3 Beta 3 build please. I'm currently running beta 2 and I think there are several bugs in the current release that hopefully will be resolved in the beta 3.

Thanks much. Appreciate it.

Hello friends!

I am using Portable Thunderbird on a Win XP SP3 platform for some time. Recently I tried to update it to the latest version by clicking on the update link in the help menu. Although it downloaded the full software without a problem, it is not able to update the software. Everytime I start Thunderbird, it tried to install the downloaded version but fails saying

"One or more files could not be updated. Please make sure that all applications are closed and that you have permissions to modify files and then restart Thunderbird to try again"

Almost every time I launch Thunderbird Portable and try to send an email, I get an error that it can't connect to the SMTP server. When I check Account Settings -- Outgoing Server (SMTP) Settings, the Description, Server Name and User Name are blank.

Has anyone else seen this happen?

OK, this is probably a rather stupid question that has been asked before but here it goes. I'm running Fedora Core 7 on the computer I use for a desktop and Windows XP Home edition on the little computer I drag around. I'm assuming that Thunderbird Portable on a flash drive will work nicely on both computers,is my assumption correct? Also, I'm assuming that I can back up Thunderbird Portable on one of the computers just in case something happens to the flash drive.

Thanks for your help.

Is it possible to install more than one copy of Thunderbird at once?

I could really make a case for needing three copies...

One for old, classic personal email. (Several years old, but I still reference some technical messages occasionally. And I just simply don't want to loose it.)

A second one for my current personal email.

A third one for business mail.

I took a look at it and I tried to do it by changing some stuff in the app\appinfo\appinfo.ini file but it doesn't look that's enough.

Hi,

I'm evaluating Mobile Master software to sync my TB with Lightning (calendar)
extension to my Nokia phone.

So far it works with contacts but not the Lightning calendar extension.

Has anyone had any success with this so far?

Thanks all.

Had TB Portable on my U3 drive... Wouldn't start up this morning. Uninstalled it. Reinstalled... Started it up, no emails / profile setup. Checked drive and can't find any of my previous emails / folders (2+ yrs of data)... Any tips on recovering this data?...

Solution: Using %DRIVE%\FirefoxPortable\FirefoxPortable.exe as the path to FFP.

I am wondering if anyone has any luck using ThunderBrowse to launch an external browser, namely Firefox Portable. I have tried using relative paths and absolute paths to the FirefoxPortable.exe, but without success. No matter what I do it either opens the system's installed version of FF or the EXE located in FirefoxPortable\App\Firefox opens but not in a portable mode (none of my bookmarks or settings are configured).

I have tried the paths:
..\..\FirefoxPortable\FirefoxPortable.exe

In my line of work, I am not allowed to keep the work documents saved in any computers, only in thumbdrives/external drives. My thumbdrive disappeared, and I hooked up the harddrive- nothing! According to the geek squad- irreparable. I asked my bro about anything that could help me, and he suggested Thunderbird. I stumbled my way through installing it to my new thumbdrives and my email accounts are downloading now.

Please, please... can anyone tell me how to command this program to download all the attachments into another file in my thumbdrive?

Hi

I'm running thunderbird portable on my memory stick, I did the update last week to the latest suggested version (the one that popped up in the update window). It says my current version is version 2.0.0.22 (20090605)

I haven't updated TB since I installed portable apps 1.1 as I haven't had bandwidth.

Now my inbox has below it a whole lot of random folders named /, $ etc. The last few folders are named by single letters a to t Whats in my inbox is a small percent of my mail(seems to be only unread mail, and the other folders are gone.
