I just installed, how do I disable the download of old emails?

I just installed TB and it prevents the download of old emails...

I don't want to download all the old emails in my account, how do I turn this off?

Thank you

Just like Zenos said, it is difficult for any e-mail client which messages should be downloaded or not.

You can take a look at

http://KB.mozillazine.org/Automatically_download_messages

In

  Account settings > Server Settings

You can experiment a bit: for example, do not select "automatically download new messages.

Know that you * not * select "leave messages on server" messages that TB extractions (any email client) remain on the server (in contrast with IMAP).

    Change the defintion of e-mail not to include an e-mail address to send from. Or rename the definition of e-mail. It could be a setting in the configuration of the system as well.

  • How can I prevent the download Thunderbird automatically emails?

    I do not have thunderbird to automatically download my emails from my server. I want to manually click to receive email. How can I prevent automatic download?

    The above method works for POP accounts, but if the IMAP account and the IMAP server supports the IDLE command, I think that you will receive notifications as soon as they arrive at the server level, regardless of the setting to check the mail.

  • How can I disable the download animated (top right of screen) in FF 20.0.1 arrow?

    The new arrow download animation is very distracting and rather annoying (and I know I'm certainly not the only person who believes that Yes). If there is no option to stop, I really hope that include you this feature in the next update.

    I'm not aware of any way to stop the animation, but you can use customization feature to remove or move the arrow or other icons on the toolbar. Here's how you can get started:

    • Right click on a zone empty of the tab bar > customize
    • Menu view > toolbars > customize (if you are not normally the bar classic menu, press the Alt key to view it if you can access the menu of the view)

    To remove an icon, drag it to the dialog box and drop it with the other icons.

    More information: Customize Firefox commands, buttons, and toolbars.

    You can see the list of downloads by using Ctrl + j.

  • I left several tabs that Firefox sent the warning prompt. As I click on save and leave I pressed accidentally the "save these settings. Now I'm just wondering, how do I disable it, so that Fireox sends the prompt whenever I try to close multiple tabs?

    This may sound silly, but once when I was about to leave Firefox, I got the warning prompt if I wanted to close many tabs... As I click on save and leave I pressed accidentally the "save these settings. Now I'm just wondering, how do I disable it, so that Fireox sends the prompt whenever I try to close multiple tabs? I'm under 3.6.6 with OS X Snow Leopard.

    You can reset the preferences to warn on the topic: config page via the context menu.
    browser.tabs.warnOnClose, see http://kb.mozillazine.org/About%3Aconfig_entries
    browser.warnOnQuit, see http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.warnOnQuit
    browser.warnOnRestart, see http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.warnOnRestart

    To open the topic: config page, type Subject: config in the address bar (address) and press the Enter key, as you type the url of a Web site to open a Web site.
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access this page.

    In Firefox 3, you don't get the dialog "Save and exit" pop - up if you choose Firefox > Preferences > General > startup: "When Firefox starts": "show my windows and tabs from last time '.

    How can I disable the Adobe applications that were installed on a computer that is no longer available? I have a creative cloud subscription, and I want to disable a device that is no longer available. I would have thought that there will be an option to disable all devices somewhere in my account, but I can't.

    This isn't what Mary said.  You get 2 facilities by title.  You should have disabled software on your old machine first, but since you have now 2 methods to disable older facilities.

    My first recommendation was to contact support with your product purchase information and disable them.

    Mary offered another option which is to go ahead and install the software on your new hard drive.   If an error saying: you have exceeded the limit of 2 machine, press the button continue to disable older facilities.  You will then be able to install on you're your new hard drive plus one more.

    Make sense?

  • How can I disable the newtab most used feature display sites. I want the new tab to open the page displayed in the newtab:url in the topic: function config

    How can I disable the newtab most used feature display sites. I want the new tab to open the page displayed in the newtab:url in the topic: function config

    41 of Firefox is no longer uses the browser.newtab.url setting in about: config because he was constantly attacked by malware. From 41 of Firefox, you need an add-on to change the new tab page.

    Here are a few options (I'm learning more all the time):

    • If you are already using the extension classic restaurateur theme: There is an option somewhere (!) in his dialogues of the parameters to select another page in the new tab.

    Setting up substitute again tab

    After installing this extension, you must use the Options page to set the new desired tab page (instead of use subject: config).

    Open the page modules using either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a (Mac: Cmd + shift + a)
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then on the side right, find the new tab override and click the Options button. (See first screenshot attached).

    Depending on the size of your screen, you may need to scroll down to enter the address in the form. (See second screenshot attached). For example:

    • (Default) page thumbnails = > subject: newtab
    • Blank tab = > subject: empty
    • Built-in Firefox homepage = > topic: welcome
    • Any other page = > full URL of the page

    Then tab or click this form field and you can test using Ctrl + t.

    Success?

    Once you have set it as you wish, you can close the Add-ons page (or use the back button to return to the list of Extensions of this Options page).

    This isn't a core feature of Firefox (AFAIK) - looks like an extension you have installed is that fact.
