Thunderbird does not work properly after copying old content profile in the new profile, what can I do

My old laptop crashed, but fortunately I got the hard drive out, who now works as an external drive. I installed TB on my new laptop computer. I copied the contents of the old file to profile in the new profile file and start of TB. I have all my files of pace, but TB does nog works correctly. After that connection, it takes forever to load the new messages, when I leave a message to another, the first answer I get is "TB not responding' and after a few minutes, I finally get to the next message. Same story with 'reply' or 'delete '. I already tried to delete the index file and have tuberculosis still indexing message folders, but this did not help.

I noticed that my old profile files seems to have a sort of double files in the subfolder Mail, old accounts. For example: pop.tele2.nl, pop.tele2 - 1.nl, pop.tele2 - 2.nl. I'm not sure what they are (they seem to hold different versions?) or is it relevant?

When I search the AppData/Roaming/profiles I'll find it (on the old and the new hard disk as well) but I can not navigate on him (some parents of hidden file)? I checked the rights on the files of my account profile (Administrator rights). I don't know what to do more, so I hope to help.

Re: for example: pop.tele2.nl, pop.tele2 - 1.nl, pop.tele2 - 2.nl.
Here's the e-mail accounts for pop e-mail account. If you have several addresses on the same server, it will have the same name but an additional example:-1 appended to the name. If you got an e-mail account, it can also create and add the additional number. Why you have several, I can't say with certainty what caused them without knowing what you have done. The point being, you must have the directory Local pointing to one that is correct and has all your existing emails.

Profile files are hidden files.

Info on profile:
http://KB.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Thunderbird

What local directory is set to the e-mail account?
"Tools" > "Account settings" > "Server settings" for the e-mail account
bottom right under "Local Directory"
It will say something like this:
C:\Users\User account name\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\abc12345.default\Mail\pop.tele2.nl

Copy paste the info on this issue, so I don't know which e-mail account you use.

How many email accounts you listed in the left pane in the account settings? You have just the one pop email account and local folders?

What antivirus do you use?
If you McAfee please read;

How many emails you have in the Inbox folder?
It is advisable to use the Inbox folder as a mailbox for incoming mail, and not as a general storage. Suggest you create folders and move all the emails in the Inbox in other appropriate folders, then right-click on Inbox and select "Compact".

Good info explaining what is compaction and why it is important:

It is also a good idea to Archive mail older than a few months.
Implemented for archive by month and keep the structure of archive folders. These emails will still be visible by 'Archives' folder and in your profile, but check-in will reduce the size of files and therefore less memory use during their opening.

  • Phone of blackBerry Smartphones does not work properly after upgrading Poynt

    Hello.

    Yesterday, I upgraded my poynt app, which seems to have causes all types of problems with my phone.

    (1) my email account icons have all disappeared, although it recognizes new messages, I can't access it.

    (2) the device does not allow me to access my texts all the time as well, and I get errors such as:

    Eception exception: application_net_rim_bb_message_app (231) does not.  I had the same message with several different numbers.

    I also have java.null messages, even if it is rare and I don't remember the exact error.

    (3) desktop manager cannot access the device, it does not allow me to backup my data.

    (4) I tried to reload the os, and applications but it fails because it cannot back up data...

    I'm lost and can't seem to find help on the net for this, and at this point, I want to just wipe the slate and start over from scratch.  Maybe completely reload the software or something.  I have most of my contact information on my sim card from my previous phone, data loss would be minimal...

    can someone help me please understand what to do.

    Info on the device

    Your carrier: att

    Model information and the version of the OS (go to settings, then Options, then):

    8900 v4.6.1.231 platform 4.2.0.108

    Apps and free space

    hard battery pull did not.

    Installed apps and their version if possible.  I have several apps installed:

    Poynt, bloomberg, score, xenozu, facebook, bablphone, CBS Spanish football, dictionary.com, anchor.  all are the latest versions, except for some reason any phone does not recognize that I have the latest version of home.

    but the last poynt update caused this, and I have already deleted poynt.

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Thanks for your help.  So a question I had was that my camera was unable to save all the data, and therefore loader did not work properly.  I read somewhere that you can stop the car to the top, did this and reloaded the new os.  I think that things are finally working

    Thanks again for your help.

  • Satellite Pro 6100 keyboard does not work properly after repairs

    Hello

    My 6100 Pro Sam just being away from usual mother board and power Board replacement with Toshiba, but now I have a strange keyboard problem.

    When I turn it on, all the keys are working. After a few minutes, '3' is not working, then 'r' fails, then '5', ' 7 ', ' 8',' 9 ', ' 0' to stop working. At this point, I can feel something very hot under the middle of the keyboard. A reboot and no keys work. Another reboot with the internal keyboard and an external keyboard to the PS2 is still defective (some keys work, others do not), but the outer one works properly.

    Now, if the pc has not obtained if hot as the middle of the internal keyboard, then, I would conclude that the keyboard was defective, but for his failure, slowly and sequentially like this and it fails at the same way every day (since Toshiba rebuild it!).

    Perhaps, internal keyboard controller overheating?
    Anyone know what this could be? :-(

    See you soon,.
    Homer

    Right under the keyboard of your pro 6100 is the VGA graphics controller (the keyboard cable plugs on the same map). It is normal that this part become hot during use.

    It is strange that your problem appears after a while and not immediately.

    It could be just a bad relocation of the keyboard cable (it's a thin layer as a movie negative photo) which easily appears there, but... it may be something more serious, too. (Especially since you had done upgrade where the material had to be changed)

    I consult the service centre once more and ask for instructions how to deal with this. Do not ignore it (using an external keyboard instead of internal dysfunction) because he could end up in something more serious soon...

  • Equium M40X does not work properly after upgrading the BIOS

    OK, well... I'm not a computer scientist, but I have a bit of trouble on my hands and I don't know where to go for the right help, so I came here.

    Today I started my lappy to confront an illuminous Green Office... not all it is green just of great spots here and there. Happened to me before, but it disappears after about 15 minutes, but today his guarded it usually hours and is still as he.

    I looked everywhere on the net for a possible fix but nothing helped, even though I've heard somewhere that an update of the BIOS might do the trick, so natually, I did... I came here and searched for my Equium M40X, found, downloaded and installed the latest version...

    but now I have a screen with a resolution of half of what it should be, it went from 1200 x 800 or something like that... to 1024 x 786 and I always get the green screen problem... the program toshiba provided for the update of the BIOS does a backup file (BIOS. (BAK)...

    I can't restore the old BIOS would set the screen resolution, but I'm just helpless as to how I go about it. I find the file, but I have no way to open/run it

    I've had this laptop for about 2 years now, I know probably just getting old and a bit tempermental, but if theres no way you people out there can help, I would much apreciate it :)

    Thanks a bunch - Ash

    Hello

    I Don t think the biosupdate is the reason for the reduced screen. It does not sound like a software thing, but rather a hardware malfunction.

    Is your normal screen during startup? If so, I'd say just remove your existing display drivers and install the new. But if it s like you described then it must be a hardware problem and the machine should be checked by a technician or at least a service partner.

    Would be better if your bring your machine to an ASP for a checkup of material.
    If you need assistance to find the ASP closest, try this link (the ASP index):

  • Satellite L50-A-111: dimming does not work properly after Win 8.1 upgrade

    Hello

    I have a problem with my laptop computer truebright LED monitor.
    Brightness works correctly, but the brightness variation is not.

    I should be able to choose from a range of 0 to 100% in both, but in gradation brightness that I can not only get up to 10% even though it says its 100%
    because when I level down it says 8,6,5,3,1 level and 0 when I get home eco and when I max he says 10% for 1 second, then 100%.

    Oh and something important, change the brightness variation has no effect at all, I think it's just stuck at 10%.

    But I know clearly that it is 10%.
    I tried everything so far, restore archive and the registry.
    It wasn't even until I restored the registry. I also tried advanced options that once solved this problem for me, tried everything, expect to reinstall the operating system.

    I installed windows 8.1 Windows store recently I don't know if its related.
    All my drivers are up to date.
    Happened yesterday after Batman Arkham City GOTY installing and disabling the Anti Virus, Firewall, etc...

    I don't know what else to try, im really frustrated, I can't handle this without the gradation of light at its maximum. My only concern is to reinstall the operating system did not solve my problems.

    Please give me some info on how to solve this problem, I'll try the registry if someone can help out me.
    Thank you in advance.

    My best regards,

    Sir. º Micael liberal

    Hello

    To be honest I m a bit confused.

    You said that you have upgraded to Win 8.1
    After these updates, you must update all the Toshiba drivers as mentioned on the 8.1 win Toshiba upgrade page.
    On the page of the Toshiba UE driver you can find the installation instructions that will show you how to install / update all drivers.

    This is very important!

  • Satellite L840/03R - FN buttons does not work properly after Win 8 upgrade

    I bought a new L840/03R and installed Windows 8 using the Toshiba Upgrade Wizard. There is no error message.

    The function keys do not work with the CTRL and ALT keys So I can't use the shortcuts like ALT-F4 to close windows - which gives "second screen" options. It does this for F4 on its own, or by pressing CTRL, ALT or SHIFT key.

    In addition, F11 activates / deactivates sound we / off rather than go full screen in chrome. F12 allows flying mode instead of "Save as" in word.
    Just downloaded and installed the package of value added.

    Am I missing something really obvious?

    * Key change function in series Satellite and Qosmio 800 *.

    + New computers in the series 800 satellites only use the 'F' numbered keys without using the FN key to get the function. +
    + You can return to the traditional two keys FN key combination if you want by making a change in the BIOS or the HWSetup. +

    The program starts and loads the files correctly. However, the menu options are unavailable (tone do not react when I pass the mouse over it): basic stuff like text-centering, size of font and others do not work.
