How to re - import a local backup mail folder?

One of my folders mysteriously disappeared them. I restored from a .sdb file backup (a few days), to its location of origin under C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\dwfdwd65.default\Mail\Local records. But how do I make it appear in the local TB folders?

I see similar questions in the forum for the IMAP folders, but no facilities.

Your help appreciated

C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\dwfdwd65.default\Mail\Local files.

Senario:
If you added a file called "Clients.sbd" directly in the account of 'Local folders' in the profile folder.
Should a mbox file called "Customers" and indexing a file called "Clients.msf" in the same place - note them part must be spelled exactly the same as the name of the folder .sbd 'Clients '.

To get a file 'Customers' in the local folders follow these steps:

In thunderbird
Right-click on "Local folders" and choose: 'new folder '.
type the name: customers
Create a subfolder under "local folders".

This will create the mbox as 'Clients' file and also the file "Clients.msf".
Close and restart Thunderbird.

So did discover the "Clients.sbd" which I assume also contains a load of subfolders in the form of files?
Into account the local folders of Thunderbird, it must display the subfolders in the folder "customers".

  • How do I import saved in Windows Mail Outlook pst file?

    I saved my Outlook e-mail in a PST on a hard drive external.  Now I want to restore that saved email on another computer that uses windows mail.  I tried to use the "import" feature, but it does not give me a PST in option.

    Hello

    Windows Mail is unable to import a .pst file if Outlook is installed on the Vista computer. You can install Outlook, copy the PST on the Vista computer, open the .pst with Outlook, then you can import into Windows Mail.

    Here are a few links that tells you how you can import a .pst in Windows Mail.

  • How can I import groups of Windows Mail contacts in Windows Live Mail?

    I work in a small office where we have computers running Windows Vista and using Windows Mail (version 6.0.6000.16388).  We have hundreds of contacts and a few contact groups on these computers.

    A few months ago, we got two new computers running Windows XP and Windows Live mail (version 2009, version 14.0.8089.0726).  Other computers at the office always have Vista and the other version of Windows Mail.

    I was able to export our hundreds of contacts and import them into Windows Live Mail for new computers have all the contacts... but I was unable to find a way to import groups.

    These groups are all very large and comprise mostly/entirely out of contacts that do not have individual contact entries.

    I've been Googling for a solution to this problem.  The page nearest you, that I could find was this:

    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/3818-Windows-Live-Mail-import-Vista-contacts-contact-groups.html

    I was very discouraged when I saw the big red warning to the top of the page:

    ---------------
    In the Groups of Contact with Vista, only contacts who are also included as normal Contacts will be imported into Windows Live Mail. Contacts that have been created for the Contact Group only will not be imported into Windows Live Mail. You will need to write these down and add them manually in Windows Live Mail.
    ---------------

    This pretty much described my situation exactly, but manually going through all groups, write all contacts, and then import them manually into two separate machines should always and is simply not an option.

    Are there really no other way I can get these groups into Windows Live Mail?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you very much!

    I have not actually tried this, but I think this method will work.

    1. get a free Live ID (or @hotmail.com or @live.com).

    2. install Windows Live Mail on Vista computer. During the installation, it will offer to signature with a Live ID. Do.

    3. the first performance of Windows Live Mail, it will be important to all contacts from Windows Mail. Give him enough time to synchronize all contacts with the web version of this Live ID.

    4. open Windows Live Mail on the new computer and then connect with the same Live ID. The automatic synchronization process will transfer in all contacts of the web version of this Live ID.

  • [SOLVED] How to disable Dell Datasafe Local Backup

    The "Dell Datasafe Local Backup" program that appears in the status bar system on new Dell computers is not started in one of the methods traditionally used in Windows.  For this reason, the right way to prevent it from running at startup is not known, and most of the advice I found on the Internet suggests to uninstall the program completely, either intentionally it paralyzes by moving, deleting, or renaming one or the other files or folders it uses.  Instead, the right way to turn it off is to turn the "SoftThinks Agent Service" using the services Control Panel - specifically, by changing the startup type for this service of "Automatic" (delayed start) on "manual".  I'm posting this info here in the hope that other people will benefit from this information, and to stop the proliferation of bad advice such as what I found by searching for my solution.

    Your solution is much appreciated.  I do not use the Dell DataSafe local backup, and it seemed to bog down the boot process.  Thank you.

  • How can I import messages from Opera Mail to Thunderbird?

    I use Mail as my electronic agent main Opera on Windows XP Pro SP3. Soon, I'll install Windows 7, but first I'm configuring Thunderbird. (I already use Firefox.)

    • Outlook 2003
    • Outlook 2007

  • How to import my Windows Live Mail email messages in mail for Windows 8?

    Before that I have upgraded Vista to Windows 8 I exported my (a few thousand) e-mail messages to save them in a folder.   Now I would like to import to Windows 8 mail.    How do I do that?

    I had the same problem, although in my case, I was trying to transfer data to a new computer of Win8 from Win7.  I wanted to just transfer my files, e-mail and contact groups, as I did with previous updates.  According to technology Microsoft Office response that I talked for about an hour, Microsoft does NOT provide a way to import data from Microsoft previous E-mail programs (windows live mail) to any application of Win8, and you can't do that with Outlook.com either.  Basically, Win8 with all tiles or such is not really a basic messaging application yet.  She told me that I have to do is to get a copy of Outlook or windows live mail on the Win8 Office part, then run as a Win7 machine.  This seems to be the best answer, until Win8 is more mature.

  • Dbx file large will not import into Microsoft Live Mail

    I'm migration of Outlook Express to Microsoft Live Mail - all records were imported fine except the file sent.  It's a large dbx file with 5 k + messages.  Only the oldest 1600 will import.  How to import in its entirety?  I really need the latest messages, not messages in 2008 as well.  Help!

    The file is probably corrupted and it may not even have the messages inside.  If you have OE still works, and then try to save again and trying to import from this backup.  Otherwise, if the file contains messages, then DBXpress ( www.oehelp.com/DBXpress/ ) can extract them as individual eml files.  But if the messages are not in the file longer, then nothing can.   DBXpress disc function extract could be used to such cases on the XP practice to try to recover what was lost, if the folder on this drive does not have messages any longer.

  • The consolidation imported emails with new messages in the same Inbox and sent mail folder

    I have 25000 emails in the Inbox of my vision and another 40000 e-mails in my Inbox items sent. I have also some subfolders of Inbox.

    With the help of pstconverterpro I go to export to the format of apple mail. It works and I've seen.

    The main problem is: how to move import of emails in the inbox sent and respective items of mail from apple records? It's not do this by default. Imported emails are sitting in folders created slot "on my mac" header, which is separated from the reception and sent items folder in apple mail box.

    It's frustrating because then my new mails will Inbox, and all the old emails imported with much history serve separately in a different folder. the same imported sent items folder sits next to the Inbox folder imported, as if it were just an another subfolder. This is not good for the mail or research organization. He is now a plug of great show for me and not let me pass Dell Windows to my macbook brand new unfortunately.

    People of any solution? Thanks in advance...

  • How do I import music from I pad for Mac air

    How do I import music from I pad for Mac air

    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not that a transfer backup device and media has been planned with you keep a master copy of your media on a computer that is in itself independently supported against loss.  To use a device with a different configuration, you pass the old library from a computer or a backup directly in the new configuration, not the device to the library. Synchronization of media isn't a way, computer to the device, update the contents of the device to the content on the computer, update or restore the content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases that can be transferred to a computer.

    Redownload or transfer your iTunes Store purchases an iPhone, iPad or iPod to computer - https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201267 - 'this feature only works for content purchased from the iTunes Store. From iOS9 is more apps that now need to be re-downloaded directly from the store.

    To transfer other items from an i-device to a computer, you will need to use third-party commercial software.  See this document in turingtest2: recover your iTunes library from your iPod or device iOS - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991 even this method can fully recover what you originally had in the library. For example, in order to save space during synchronization if you had converted music files at a lower rate, or photos at a lower resolution, it is these lower quality files that will pick you up.

    If you subscribe to the Apple music, titles that are not part of the content that you have purchased or downloaded may not be transferred and must be downloaded directly from iCloud.
