Cannot migrate the profile T-Bird

It seemed to be an easy thing to do but it's not. I put my old profile to the right place: users > appData > Fireaunt > roaming > Thunderbird > profiles

I have another profile there that was created when I started Thunderbird on my new computer. Then I went in the profiles.ini file and here is what I have and what I tried, none of this has worked:

[General]
StartWithLastProfile = 1 <-tried this change to 0, no luck

[Profile0]
Name = default
IsRelative = 1 <-tried this change to 0, no luck
Path = Profiles / firea0n1.default <-this isn't the real profile name, I changed it here for safety
Default = 1 <-tried this change to 0, no luck

I tried almost all combinations of 0 and 1, no luck. Could you please tell me how this is done? It seems that the changes I do return to the original values, when I try to save them, even if I click on save before leaving. Also, I end up finding new profiles when I restart Thunderbird. I have tried to delete the new profile in the profiles folder, nothing helped. Thanks for any help you can give.

I think that we should give the full path to the program file. On this machine, that would be:

"C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla" PEI

That's why we often suggest that you copy an existing link and then modify it. Usually access mode safe, or as in this example, the Profile Manager.

  • Cannot migrate my profile from XP to Windows 7

    I want to migrate my Firefox profile (bookmarks, passwords, latest sites visited, installed extensions/applications settings etc.) of my Win XP 64 machine to my new Win 7 machine. Firefox is updated (34.0 5) on my XP 64 and Windows 7 machines (I manually installed the active apps/extensions on Win 7). However Firefox was originally installed on my XP machine (at least 6) years ago so what counts.

    I have read and tried everything I can think of but * nothing * works.

    On my XP machine, I have only the default profile (to run Firefox with the - P option). It is located in C:\Documents and Settings\TexasTim65\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\1f2yd5bq.default

    On my Win 7 machine, I find the default profile in C:\Users\TexasTim65\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\bjy0sgis.default.

    Try #1) I copied the folder 1f2yd5bq.default for Win 7. I run Firefox - P, but the profile manager sees only the default profile. So apparently, it cannot detect new profiles randomly added to the profiles folder. So that's a no-go.

    Try #2) I open the folder bjy0sgis.default on Win 7. I delete everything in this folder. I can copy and paste into all kinds of 1f2yd5bq.default. I start Firefox and got nothing. No favorites, no sites are visited and I guess no password information or anything else. If this doesn't work for me either even if MANY people claim that this is what they had to do.

    Try #3) using the Manager of profiles on Win 7, I added a new profile called hand. I just copied once again 1f2yd5bq.default in the new profile. I put in hand as default profile used (I know works because it uses different extensions/plugins) but of course I have nothing of my copied profile.

    So I'm puzzled. Something is different about my setup which is not allowing me to move on in a simple way.

    TIA,

    Tim

    P.S. is there something I can do to get Firefox to create EXACTLY the same name profile under Win 7 as I had in XP? I would have thought the same username would produce the same default profile, but apparently it does not.

    "On my Win 7 machine, in the fact that I find the default profile

    C:\Users\TexasTim65\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\bjy0sgis.default. "

    There is another folder 'Profile' to C:\Users\TexasTim65\AppData\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\bjy0sgis.default - without the \Local in the path. This is the folder you need to copy your old profile files in.

  • Cannot access the profile of Thunderbird in Windows 7 Manager

  • Firefox does not open after the update. Cannot open the profile technical, even when you use the directory in cmd line path

    I'm using Firefox on a Windows 7 computer. Firefox does not open after the last update. I read the help articles and it seems that I need to create a new profile because my settings were probably corrupted. I'm unable to open the profile technical, even when you use the directory in cmd line path. I tried the following commands in the command line:

    Firefox Pei
    "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla" PEI

    Nothing happens with every order.

    I am also running Norton Internet Security. I read a help of virtual navigation features Re article that can cause a problem. The article says to check the setting of virtualization in the internet security software and to clear the virtual cache. I went through all the menus of settings in Norton Internet Security version 21.6.0.32 and I don't see anything that looked like in "virtualization" settings, so I guess that does not apply to me. "

    If you have any ideas, I had appreaciate that your expertise!

    Hello arcandl, at the launch of the firefox is not after you double-click the shortcut, it is sometimes also a sign of active malware on a system.
    you might want to try running a scan with some various other security like the free version of malwarebytes and adwcleaner tools that are specialized to remove the adware and browser hijackers.

  • Cannot change the profile on the Skype Portal information

    I don't know where to put this. I put this here because I'm a desktop user, but I use the Skype portal to change my details because there are more options out there than on the program itself. I used to be able to do so without any problems, but now...

    Why did none of these buttons perform an action when I click on them? I had reinstalled Windows and that you don't have Java if it means something.

    Don't get me wrong, I can always change my details within the program, but the portal has been my favorite way to edit the details of the profile and I'd like to find a way to make it work again if possible.

    The issue has been resolved. Apparently fixed the page itself.

    Problem is solved, you can lock it.

  • Cannot export the profile of calibration of camera when exporting catalogs

    I often take work and have to color calibrate the artwork using a color corrector.  The 'calibration of the camera profile' is saved in my "camera profiles.  I attached pushes a lot so when you export a catalog LR my laptop on my desk, the calibrated camera profile is not transferred. So whenever I do a manual transfer to the camera profile folder.   When can we expect the 'calibration of the camera profile' export as well as the catalogue?

    Concerning

    The way the file structure is designed, I don't expect camera profiles to be included in the catalogue. They are all grouped in the resources folder in the Lightroom folder. Lightroom chooses the profile based on the model of camera. This would require all profiles of camera must be included in the catalogue. I could be wrong, but I don't think that this is part of the Adobe development plan.

  • Using several data stores, cannot migrate the vmx file in a data store

    I am host migration between 3.5 and 4.0, and part of the migration requires me to vmotion data to a single shared LUN data warehouses.  From there on, I import the virtual machine in 4.0 and using the script to migrate the two VM disks at different stores of data below.  The problem I have is that the configuration (vmx) file not migrated and is left on the shared storage LUNS.  Anyone knows how to go beyond this?

    The Script:

    $VMDisk = 'disk 1 '.

    $VMName = 'TestVM '.

    $TargetDS = get-Datastore - VMHost (Get-VMHost-$S.id Id) | Where-Object {$_.} Name - like "PMV"} | "" FreeSpaceMB tri-objet-descending | SELECT name - first of all 1

    $vm = get-View - ViewType VirtualMachine-filter @{"Name" = $VMName}

    foreach ($dev in $vm. Config.Hardware.Device) {if ($dev. DeviceInfo.Label - eq $vmDisk) {$diskId = $dev. Key}}

    $spec = new-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineRelocateSpec

    $diskspec = new-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineRelocateSpecDiskLocator

    $diskspec. Data store = (Get-Datastore-name $TargetDS.Name |) Get - View). MoRef

    $diskspec.diskId = $diskId

    $spec. Disk = @($diskspec)

    $task = get-View ($vm. RelocateVM_Task ($spec, "lowpriority"))

    OK, I think I understand your problem now.

    I fear that in the current construction of PowerCLI, the Move-VM cmdlet does not destinations of individual data for each virtual hard disk store.

    With the RelocateVM_Task method, it is possible.

    The following script moves a guest at 3 different data warehouses:

    -the. VMX file for DS2

    -hard disk 1 for DS3

    -hard drive 2 TB DS4

    $vmName = "MyGuest"
    $vmxDS = "DS2"
    $osDS = "DS3"
    $dataDS = "DS4"
    
    $vm = Get-VM -Name $vmName
    
    $vm.Extensiondata.Config.Hardware.Device | %{
         if ($_.DeviceInfo.Label -eq "Hard disk 1"){
              $osDiskId = $_.Key
         }
         elseif($_.DeviceInfo.Label -eq "Hard disk 2"){
              $dataDiskId = $_.Key
         }
    }
    
    $spec = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineRelocateSpec
    
    $osRelocate = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineRelocateSpecDiskLocator
    $osRelocate.Datastore = (Get-Datastore -Name $osDS).Extensiondata.MoRef
    $osRelocate.diskId = $osDiskId
    
    $dataRelocate = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineRelocateSpecDiskLocator
    $dataRelocate.Datastore = (Get-Datastore -Name $dataDS).Extensiondata.MoRef
    $dataRelocate.diskId = $dataDiskId
    
    $spec.Disk = @($osRelocate,$dataRelocate)
    $spec.Datastore = (Get-Datastore -Name $vmxDS).Extensiondata.MoRef
    $spec.Host = $vm.Extensiondata.Summary.Runtime.Host
    
    $task = Get-View ($vm.Extensiondata.RelocateVM_Task($spec, "lowpriority"))
    while("running","queued" -contains $task.Info.State){
         $task.UpdateViewData("Info")
         sleep 5
    }
    

    BTW, you can use the cmdlet Set - hard disk to a virtual disk that is specific to a data store.

    But as I understood what is not possible in your environment.

  • Cannot migrate the physical files using OPE utility loader

    Hi friends,
    With my problem of submodel still pending, I am facing another problem - 'Migration to XML Publisher rtf templates'.
    I went through the document (DocId:Note 469585.1) regarding 'How to use OPE Loader?'
    The document contains commands for the DOWNLOAD and UPLOAD of physical files.
    Before you run these commands, I executed the following commands to migrate the "data Definitions" and "Definitions". The commands are the following:-

    [crp2appl@erptrg CRP2_erptrg] $ FNDLOAD apps/apps 0 Y DOWNLOAD $XDO_TOP/patch/115/import/xdotmpl.lct corptmpl.ldt XDO_DS_DEFINITIONS APPLiCATION_SHORT_NAME = "SQLAP" DATA_SOURE_CODE = "XXAPCORPCHQPRT" TMPL_APP_SHORT_NAME = "SQLAP" TEMPLATE_CODE
    = "XXAPCORPCHQPRT".

    [crp2appl@erpdev CLN2_erpdev] $ FNDLOAD DOWNLOAD apps/apps $0 XDO_TOP/patch/115.
    Import/xdotmpl. LCT corptmpl.ldt

    After running these two commands, the "definition of data" and "details of the model" are migrated but not physical rtf files.

    At this point, I tried to run the following command to the physical integrity (rtf) file migration which is given in the document mentioned above.

  • Cannot change the profile Photo/icon

    Hello

    I don't know if this is the right forum, so I apologize if I put it in the wrong place.

    I recently (3-4 weeks ago, tops), downloaded the latest version of Skype. Since then, I could not change my profile picture, a problem that I didn't have before. When I click on 'change your image... '. "or my profile picture to change it, the regular menu comes up, and I can browse and select a picture. However, the second, that I click on an image to select it, Skype Cup (if I am in a call), gets lag returns for the briefest of moments and then crashes. My icon is not changed when I return.

    He learned to be a terrible fight, and reinstalling Skype does not solve the problem. Help?

    The only one I can say based on the error message that it could be a conflict between Skype and a system, maybe graphics card drivers. You can try to update your Skype to the latest version, either 5.5.0.124 or 5.6.0.110. See this:
