Received a nice email from Matt which I answered with this:

Thank you for your thoughtfulness but I must be missing something. I created the new key, copied it to clipboard and to a piece of paper. I went to Thunderbird and typed the new key in when it asked for a password, checking the box for password manager. I've done it twice to no avail. I can't move anything to type it in the account settings.

More thoughts, please. (A grad school friend used to say , in a rich North Carolina accent, it didn't work because you didn't know how to hold your mouth. So I know there's something I'm missing.)

Four days ago the Att server started to refuse my password (I assume that was it). After four changes of password, including in Thunderbird, the password keeps being refused. Have exhausted several att agents who can't figure out why it doesn't work. One thought the server settings were correct.

Just heard from David who advised not to enter the secure key until asked. After the automatic opening cycle when thunderbird seems to be trying to get out, there is a window in which you can put your password. That is where I have put it (twice). Is this not the place.? Or the timing?

Thunderbird could not get to the att server starting Sunday; it's now Thursday night. (Everything else inexplicably went down: landline, internet, cell phone, even the printer.) Now it's all back except a working Thunderbird. Today I finally made contact with someone at att who could show me that my password was working and went through all the account variables in Thunderbird, testing them out to no avail. Her conclusion was that the problem was on the Thunderbird side. But I need my 30 years of files. I have just been through a thread from 11/23 full of similar problems but no solution that I could figure out. I am ignorant. Can anyone provide some instructions for an ignorant 88 year old to follow for at least a better diagnosis. (I guess I'm saying that many words need definitions for me.) I hope I've bookmarked that long discussion with varying ideas so I can look at it again when I recover from this week. Thanks for any help.

Websites look extremely ugly because of the white borders surrounding icons. I've tried using CSS code I found on Reddit from posts that - I think - are related to my issue, but they proved fruitless.

What CSS/Setting do I have to disable to get rid of this?

My sent emails from 4 of 5 accounts disappeared in Tbird but still on their servers.

Rackspace hosts 2, inmotion 1, and gmail, 2. One gmail account has the sent emails showing in Tbird. All are smtp accounts. The send file header shows the # of messages sent but there are no results showing. I have not changed any settings or new add ons for weeks so I did not do anything new. Maybe the app updated itself and there is a bug? I see in beta that compacting folders is a problem and wondering if this could be related?

Rackspace has the sent email on the servers. InMotion has sent emails Gmail has sent emails and one of the accounts still has sent email in a gmail account.

I'm repairing one of the accounts as I write but nothing showing up in sent file for that account. This is totally wacky. Thanks for any suggestions of why Tbird is wacky.

Cheers -- jim

My e-mail account was transferred from Verizon to AOL a few years back and I never experienced any problems until one sunny morning last week when I started getting the following message: "Sending of password for user pjklim did not succeed. Mail server pop.verizon.net responded: [SYS/TEMP] Server error - Please try again later." When I typed the password in the window that popped up the message reappeared. I know that AOL went to double login identification, so I suspect it might have something to do with that. I checked all my Thunderbird settings and they all appear to be correct. I verified the pop and smtp setting through a chat with AOL. What can I do? Regards Peter

Hello, today I decided to create a new Firefox Profile. I set the directory of this profile to be my desktop, which is where I usually put things (downloads and such) by default. I thought it would create another folder there on the desktop and put everything inside that, but instead it put a bunch of junk on my desktop. No big deal, right, I can just delete the profile, and that other junk should also be deleted. Well, not only did deleting the Firefox profile delete the extra junk that was created while making the profile, it also, for some reason, has deleted about 90% of everything else on my desktop as well. There are now only a few seemingly random things left on the desktop, that it decided to spare for whatever reason.

Where did everything go? The recycle bin is empty.. Most of it was just shortcuts, not a big deal, but I did have a few folders with some rather important work that I would very much like to retrieve. Please tell me Firefox didn't just nuke my desktop, and that all of those things are now unrecoverable? Windows 7 64 bit

Thanks very much.

I had trouble updating my email accounts due to an issue with the profile update. The solution for me was to delete the 42 copies of the profile and basically start over. Now I need access to some of the folders where emails were locally stored. I know where on the computer fined the folders/files of the old emails. How do I import them into my current TB profile?

Currently, Firefox opens OBJ files as text. I want to send them to the Microsoft 3D Viewer which is the default application in Windows for these kinds of files. All I can do right now is right click on the file, save the file, then open with the 3D Viewer. I have gone to settings/General then down to applications and I can't add any files there. (Why not?) It doesn't matter if I choose to save or open files, the OBJ file still displays as text in Firefox. How do I get Firefox to send instead of display these files as text?
