Re: [CGUYS] Thunderbird Quitting
I can't tell you more than in my experience Thunderbird has some complex hooks. It got a small corruption on my PC which I have never been able to get rid of despite troubleshooting and uninstalls and reinstalls. I ended running Tbird in its safe mode to avoid the symptom. db Jordan wrote: Ever since I put a cloned copy of my iMac hard drive on this iMac, Thunderbird has been has been quitting after working fine for a while. I've tried pitching the plist file and installing a new Thunderbird with no improvement. Any Ideas?

It is good a replacing missing pieces. Of course that assumes that your missing pieces were included in an update. Since the "combo" includes updates for everything since dot-zero the odds are good that the parts you need are in there. * ==> QUICK LIST-COMMAND REFERENCE - Put the following commands in <== * ==> the body of an email & send 'em to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <== * Join the list: SUBSCRIBE COMPUTERGUYS-L Your Name * Too much mail?

Re: [CGUYS] Thunderbird Quitting
That didn't occur to me, but the OS was totally up to date. Is it possible to somehow force it to do an update it does not need? It's a pain in the butt to start over, but the process makes me dig into areas of the system that I tend to forget about. It makes me more effective when I help others. Have you ever installed a CCC clone on a Mac, or just replaced parts that needed fixing? In the last few days, some of my mail to the list has never made it to my email client or to the gmail web mail site. It's nice somebody saw it.

The combo updater will check and fix a version that is the same as the updates. * ==> QUICK LIST-COMMAND REFERENCE - Put the following commands in <== * ==> the body of an email & send 'em to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <== * Join the list: SUBSCRIBE COMPUTERGUYS-L Your Name * Too much mail?
