[Desktop-packages] [Bug 196058] Re: Thunderbird starts in a full-screen mode and cannot be restored
Marco's note was the key for me. In my case some conflict between Compiz and Mate caused my desktop to go completely crazy. One of the effects was to make every application go full screen. After cleaning up the mess, all the apps went back to more-or-less normal but Thunderbird. I had already tried the localstore.rdf method without success. But Marco's note about using xulstore.json did the trick! Until then, while I tried to get this working, the only way I could get to my Panel was by hitting F12, which brought up the miniterminal and coincidentally showed the Panel. But then I could only minimize Thunderbird. (And I ended up with a dozen or so miniterminal windows...) The right-click options on the Thunderbird button in the task list did not show Thunderbird as maximized. So the easiest thing was to just use File->exit in Thunderbird each time I tried things. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/196058 Title: Thunderbird starts in a full-screen mode and cannot be restored Status in Mozilla Thunderbird: New Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: WORKAROUND: 1.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 196058] Re: Thunderbird starts in a full-screen mode and cannot be restored
Well, I just had the same issue in Ubuntu 13.04, of course it didn't occur after a distro upgrade, I believe Thunderbird just updated, and I noticed compiz also crashed and restarted (updated @ night while I was asleep, and woke to find the error report about the crash, and all my windows were in a single workspace, which happens when compiz restarts). Then when I went to open Thunderbird it was fullscreen. To fix this you can actually just delete localstore.rdf in the Thunderbird profile, if you want to be on the safe side just rename it to localstore.rdf.bak or localstore.rdf.old or something, then when you restart it and it creates the new file, and you're comfortable with it, delete the old file. It is totally safe to delete though, because if it doesn't exist when Thunderbird opens it automatically creates it with default values (which is basically no values at all). Then when you change the size of the window to what you prefer, it will update the file with the appropriate values to remember how the window was. And this is what's so amazing about text based configuration, in Window$ with a program that uses the registry for everything, you'd have to find the specific registry entry, and deleting it would likely break the program (and maybe even cause BSoD), so you'd likely have to find out what the key is and what value it's supposed to have. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/196058 Title: Thunderbird starts in a full-screen mode and cannot be restored Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News: New Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: WORKAROUND: 1.

This just happened to me on 13.04, I believe due to unity crashing. Editing sizemode=fullscreen to normal solved the problem too. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/196058 Title: Thunderbird starts in a full-screen mode and cannot be restored Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News: New Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: WORKAROUND: 1.

I just experienced this bug in current 13.04 alpha and solved it also by going to my profile folder to switch sizemode=fullscreen back to normal in localstore.rdf. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/196058 Title: Thunderbird starts in a full-screen mode and cannot be restored Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News: New Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: WORKAROUND: 1.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 196058] Re: Thunderbird starts in a full-screen mode and cannot be restored
Here is what I have found. First of all, I have Ubuntu 10.04 with GLX- Dock (Cairo Dock with Open-GL) installed on my system. My issue was caused when I installed the Cairo Dock add-on in Thunderbird 16.0.1, then I right clicked on my Thunderbird icon in my GLX-Dock and selected 'other actions - fullscreen' After that, I did not get the option in the GLX-Dock, or in Thunderbird, to change it back to normal screen. What I found was that this changed the screen size settings in localstore.rdf to the following settings: RDF:Description RDF:about=chrome://messenger/content/messenger.xul#messengerWindow width=700 height=403 screenX=0 screenY=3 sizemode=maximized / I then changed filename of localstore.rdf to localstore.rdf.old and restarted Thunderbird. Thunderbird created a new localstore.rdf file on startup with the following default settings, which were correct settings to eliminate the issue. RDF:Description RDF:about=chrome://messenger/content/messenger.xul#messengerWindow width=1024 height=711 screenX=0 screenY=3 sizemode=normal / note: screenY=3 on my system because I have a hidden panel on top that is set to 3 pixels wide until I scroll over it. ScreenY would probably be 0 on most systems. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/196058 Title: Thunderbird starts in a full-screen mode and cannot be restored Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News: New Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: WORKAROUND: 1.
