Google says that Thunderbird does not respect safety standards. They specficly the list, Thunderbird and MS Outlook. Will there be an update that resolves this problem?
I tried to have thunderbird connect and download email from one of my google accounts. I kept getting errors of password, then one email from Google on another account, telling me that this account has failed. partial quote below. They indicate that Thunderbird no longer meets modern safety standards. Will there be an update that will fix this?

You can switch to an application made by Google like Gmail to access your account (recommended) or change your settings to https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps so that your account is no longer protected by modern security standards.
For more information, see https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/6010255.
There may be an update, it is highly debated. "modern safety standard" Google are trying to force all power is a web standard not a standard mail. To work properly, the application should act as a browser. Something of a security problem for an email client that is not a browser.
They mention Outlook or Thunderbird, as they are the soloists. The truth is there is not an email on the planet other than Google apps web client in a browser or on a mobile device that meet the standard. Want your Yahoo or Hotmail account to collect your messages to Gmail... No, they are less secure and in this function. Wish that Google can use to retrieve the messages of others... wow they use the less secure approach to POP and IMAP with password authentication.
But Google now have your phone number to add to their gold mine limited personal information to serve adds with.
The bottom line is to enable less secure apps. They are in line with standards applications. They are not less safe, they do not respect arbitrary authentication standard Googles.

Firefox does not open in full screen on the task bar and I have to go over it to see the web page.
Firefox window is sometimes "off screen" somehow. Often, you can force it to appear on the screen by right clicking on the thumbnail image just above the taskbar and choose expand. Does it work?
A possible cause for this is that the file that stores the positions and sizes of window is corrupt. You can delete this file and Firefox will return to standard window resizing.
#1 method: If you can get a zoomed window:
Open the settings folder (AKA Firefox profile) current Firefox help
- button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > troubleshooting information
- (menu bar) Help > troubleshooting information
- type or paste everything: in the address bar and press Enter
In the first table of the page, click on the view file"" button. This should launch a new window that lists the various files and folders in Windows Explorer.
Leave this window open, switch back to Firefox and output, either:
- "3-bar" menu button > button "power".
- (menu bar) File > Exit
Pause while Firefox finishing its cleanup, then rename xulstore.json to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename this to localstore.old.
Launch Firefox back up again. Windows normally appear again?
#2 method: If you can not get a Firefox window for all:
Close Firefox by right clicking the icon in the taskbar > close all windows.
Using the Run dialog box (windows key + R) or the start search bar menu type or paste the following and press Enter to drill down to the profiles folder:
%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
Here you can see a folder - in this case, double-click that - or more than one case - in this case, double-click on in what looks like the most recently updated.
Scroll down and rename xulstore.json to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename this to localstore.old.
Launch Firefox back up again. Windows normally appear again?
Then, to re - light bars, you can use one of the following methods to view the list of the toolbar, and then select the desired bars it:
- Right click on a place empty on the tab bar (or the button '+')
- Press the Alt key to activate the classic menu bar > view > toolbars
- in customize mode > show/hide toolbars (see: Customize Firefox commands, buttons, and toolbars)
To activate the menu bar, toolbar bookmarks or other bars, click it in the list.

I am running Vista Home Premium on a laptop Compaq Presario F700. It is listed in the list of computers of readers, it is listed in Device Manager. The lites drive that the computer boots so I know it is detected. When you run itunes or media player the player does not open. When I push the drive button it will not open. It opens with a paperclip in the exit hole. It cannot read a CD or a DVD. None of the media players even recognize there is a disc in the drive. I tried to run fixit, but it would not drive either. I tried restoring from a previous backup, without change.

Check / settings (BIOS/CMOS) often F2 so watch the screen as it starts - place CD/DVD
1st in the boot order (remember to put it at the time where the fact).Then put in a DVD to boot Windows and see if the driver works.
If it doesn't then it's a hardware problem.

If the drive has worked in the test above, that these can help:
Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as is often total
a process that solves the problem.Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.
Click on update drivers (this will probably do nothing) - RIGHT click ON the drive - uninstall.
RESTART this will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue

Line does not come after each row of the list
Hello
I show a list in my current application. In the list, I paint a line after each line. Just a line of string, I add in each line. Now when I'm checking the list, on some devices, lines are coming. As in Bold 9790, after each line, a line is added. But in the Torch 9810 and curved 9320, line is not there. I don't get why this different behavior for different devices.
Can someone please help.
Here is my code:
public class ListCallBack implements ListFieldCallback{ public void drawListRow(ListField listField, Graphics graphics, int index, int y, int width) { String text = "xxxxxxx"; graphics.setFont(FONT_FAMILY_1_SF_AS_08); graphics.drawText(text, 10, y, DrawStyle.ELLIPSIS, width); if (index != 0) { graphics.setColor(Color.BLACK); graphics.drawLine(0, y-12, width, y-12); } } public Object get(ListField listField, int index) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub return mAccounts[index]; } public int getPreferredWidth(ListField listField) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub return screenWidth; } public int getPreferredHeight() { return getContentHeight(); } public int indexOfList(ListField listField, String prefix, int start) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub return listField.getSelectedIndex(); } } }
Thank you...
The best result I wanted to say, variable height from station to station. So currently I use the line height and made changes accordingly.
Here is my Code:
Font f = FONT_FAMILY_1_SF_AS_08; graphics.setFont(f); int h = f.getHeight(); int height = (listField.getRowHeight() - h)/2 ; y += height; graphics.drawText(text, 10, y, DrawStyle.ELLIPSIS, width); if (index != 0) { graphics.setColor(Color.BLACK); graphics.drawLine(0, y - height + 1 , width, y - height + 1); }
It worked properly. Thanks a lot Peter and Simon.

I have a problem with my product key on my emachines, how can I solve this problem.
Hello
If your problem is with Office, read this:

There are only so many days use or use of the times with a version of office to test
I'm sorry but the Office comes for free with a windows operating system
You must purchase separately the Office

He stopped sounds then the put verizon people how far it goes off every night for 5 minutes. so far no problem. but a few days before, when I send a new SMS, I press the letter of my name of contact and he tells me that he has no contacts that begin w this letter. It works on some and not on others. I turned my phone off, took out the battery for a minute and he turned his back. the same problem. Anyone know what I do wrong?
also. If I took out the battery, my settings will be the same or some will automatically return to a default setting? Thanks in advance!

Opens its contact > Edit > enter its name IN the last name field.
Now, back to compose SMS.... and press the first letter of his first name. It work?
