Re: Which Drive for Profile??

On XP C:\\Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Mozilla\SeaMonkey\Profiles Lee So if I move to D: how is SM gonna find them?? So I moved to D: and when I restart SM it starts the migration wizard. What do I do now? I can go thru this all again, and the profile stuff will again end up on C:. WTF! Who writes this stuff?? Calm down a bit. The migration process is designed for the average user. Anyone who stores their profile somewhere other then the default is not average. Above average, sure, but not average. ;) First of all, if you start the migration wizard again, its just going to place the data back in the default location again. Remember, its designed for the vast number of users who use that default location, not the small number of users such as us, who do unusual things with our profiles. When I was testing 2.0 nightlies, for quite a while, the wizard could not deal with my ail/news profile at all, since I keep my data outside the profile. I expected this, and was actually pleasantly surprised when the finished version managed to migrate it correctly. Still, back to your problem. You are going to have to migrate your profile data manually. Basically, you use Profile Manager to create a new profile, then copy your profile data to the new profile folder. Here is a knowledgebase article that describes the process in detail: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_SeaMonkey Note this: Copy data to the new profile * It may be possible to create a new profile, delete the profile folder contents, and then copy the entire contents of another profile into the new, now-empty profile folder. However, this is not recommended when moving from a 1.x profile to SeaMonkey 2 and should not be done if you had problems with the other profile. What I do in this situation, for example when I transfer profile data from an old machine to a new machine,is to copy the entire profile folder I am moving, and paste it into the new location. I then rename the pasted folder to the exact name of the newly created folder. An example. Lets say that the SM 2.0 folder on your C drive is .default. The x's are a random string, so, lets assume a1b2c3d4.default. The profile folder you have created on your D drive using Profile Manager, is called 4d3c2b1a.new. Since the new profile is a blank profile, you can delete it. I would rename it old4d3c2b1a.new, just in case. The rename a1b2c3d4.default to 4d3c2b1a.new. Open SeaMonkey, and you should be seeing the new data stored in the new location. Once you are satisfied that all is working as you wish, you can delete the renamed folder in the new location, and the profile folder in the old location. Lee Hey, Lee, if cciaffone has already let SM 2.0 put the profile where it wanted, then manually moved it to where cciaffone wants it (somewhere on the D:), shouldn't cciaffone just be able to use the Profile Manager to create a new Profile and point it to where, on the D:, cciaffone moved the profile?? I'm sure I've done this with SM 1.1.x, but will it work in the new set-up??

[ProfD] and its use in configuration/prefs.js (SM 2.0)
I notice that some paths in my about:config page start with [ProfD] -- I assume this means that the path is relative to the profile directory. However, not all paths are written thus -- many include the complete path including (this is Windows) the drive letter. Can all paths in the configuration or prefs.js be written relative to the profile directory with [ProfD]? In particular, I'd like to get away from the use of the drive letter so I can move a profile to a different drive (or change the drive letter of the drive). Are there any other symbolic file system locations other than [ProfD]? I assume that Windows-defined symbolic locations, such as %APPDATA%, aren't usable in paths in the profile.

I agree with the comments by others to the effect that (1) make sure SeaMonkey is completely shut down before editing, (2) keep a backup in case you mess things up, and (3) use a plain text / programmer editor. I edit my bookmarks files frequently (mainly to keep the versions from various machines in synch). I suppose I could use a synch service of some sort, but I've been editing for a decade and don't see a reason to stop now. I usually just copy/paste uncategorized items from/to the bottom of my bookmarks file, and then use the bookmark manager to move the bookmarks into the right categories. That way I don't need to worry about (nor mess up) categories and category delimiters. I could misremember, but I think the system generated file warning has been at the top of many Mozilla / Firefox / SeaMonkey files for a long time - maybe including the bookmark file. -- Rob Lindauer - for my real address, replace att with sbc ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Junk mail feature in 1.1.18
I have Windows XP Professional SP3 installed on an i17 PC that I purchased less than six months ago. I was eager to upgrade to SeaMonkey 2.0, expecting that this long awaited major upgrade would be relatively bug-free. Instead, I had too many problems with the installation and its operation - not to mention I dislike the FireFox look/interface (icons, smileys, loss of trusted features), so have returned to Seakmonkey 1.1.18, but have run into a new problem. I did a new installation to a new Program files folder, transferred to the new Profile folder under Application Data my previous bookmarks, addressbook, and password manager, as well as the archived mails, and made the switch of the .w and .s file numbers in the preferences file. I then created all the POP email accounts from scratch and activated all the junk mail options, but the incoming mails do not go through the junk mail options. The obvious junk mails neither get marked automatically as junk and get transferred to the junk folder, nor even after I mark them as junk manually. I remember coming across this problem before - and I vaguely recall seeing a mention of a command line syntax change - but am unable to search the newsgroup for the answer. The already restricted SeaMonkey search feature (allows only a From and Subject search) for newsgroups does not work at all, returning this error A News (NNTP) error occurred: syntax error or unknown command. While I am experiencing some other minor problems, the loss of the automatic junk mail filter is a major problem for me as I get hundreds of spam mails each day.

Re: SM 2.0 Form Management
I appreciate your response Phil, I guess my surprise is that a feature that's been with us this long should be declared out - I assume long thought was given to doing that, deciding that 2.o's other improvements outweighed waiting until form manger could be rewritten/fixed. It never occurred to me that a version of my favorite browser would suddenly omit a feature, going back instead of forward. I know that SM like all mozillas relies on volunteers, and bless them all for work that we all appreciate so much, and yes there is a but coming- I used all of SM- browser, mail,composer and sometimes chat. I doubt anyone here really knows the customer base for the various components, or how many now seeing form manger gone will just vote with feet and use some other browser. But thanks for the thought - I'll watch to see if someone kind soul rides to the rescue- and never again will I update a browser without reading ALL the update notices .

Re: Once Ya' go to FF 'n' TB, Ya' may, never go back!
Interviewed by CNN on 13/11/2009 16:53, Rex told the world: You'll find most people here have done the opposite. I've been on FF since the time it was known as Phoenix, and TB a little less than that. I still miss Firefox, but I love the mail-browser integration of Seamonkey. And Seamonkey 2.0 uses the same codebase as Firefox and Thunderbird, which is why you're seeing similarities. And yes..extensions are what I miss the most. Many popular extensions are yet to be ported to Seamonkey..if at all. OTOH, now that Seamonkey's codebase is so close to that of FF+TB, in many, many cases the effort to port an extension to SM2 is trivial -- while in the old codebase, the programmer had to do include code needed only for Seamonkey. In some cases, an entire separate version ended up being written. Some extension developers stopped supporting Seamonkey at some point, leaving only old, outdated versions to SM users. So... my expectation is that, although *right now* there is some dearth of Seamonkey-compatible extensions, in a couple months there will be more than ever. For instance, the upgrade to SM2 already allows me to use the new version of DownThemAll, which does more stuff than the old, SM1-compatible version. The only thing I'll have to do without for a while is Multizilla -- which was *never* available for Firefox, by the way. But the developer has stated an intention of finishing the Suiterunner port he started sometime last year -- only, he's too busy with his RL job right now, so it will take some time. SM2 is not perfect, of course. Some changes in behavior annoy the hell of me -- but I'm not sure if those are real changes or it's just that I got so used to Multizilla I don't even remember the default behavior for Mozilla/Seamonkey. So I'm having to unlearn some habits... for now. Still, I'm not ready to leave SM for Firefox; in fact, now that there's a Portable SM2, I'll probably switch my PortableApps flash drive to Seamonkey too. -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm.

I just updated both without a problem. SpywareBlaster had no update but Spybot SD updated without any probem. What problem did you encounter? Was there a problem when you tried to run Spybot? Oh, you can update, and both applications run but neither is recognising SeaMonkey 2.0 so there's no protection: For me, Spywareblaster's status screen shows Internet Destroyer (sorry, Int. Explorer -- I do have it installed but seldom use it) and Restricted Sites as Protection Enabled. Mozilla Firefox is not detected. With SM 1.1.xx, there was Protection Enabled listed for SeaMonkey, as well as from memory Moz. FF not detected. As for Spybot SD, under Immunize, I now just see entries for IE 32 bit, IE 32/64 bit, and Windows/Global Host. There used to be/should be a full listing for SeaMonkey (as with IE's)... as there was for Opera when I had it installed. On my SpywareBlaster, V 4.2, I can enable and disable the Seamonkey protection. I don't use the Spybot S D Immunize. When I clicked on it, it gave me a warning of Open browser, Firefox. And then between IE 64 bit and Windows, there is a list for Mozilla. Spybot S D is V 1.6.2.46 I don't know why our two programs are different. Sorry. I also am using Version 4.2 but it does not detect SM2. Perhaps both my programs are seeing the older version of SM still on this computer? Neither says Seamonkey 2, just Seamonkey. And actually, SD is referring to an older SM profile. I'm not sure how to remove the older version of SM. Add/Remove programs show both versions but SM1.1.18 appears to have no Size but 2.0 is 40.22MB in Size. I just renamed my Mozilla and older Seamonkey folders in Programs, Mozilla.org and also the old profiles in the application folder-you can rename to the original for them to work again. -- You either teach people to treat you with dignity and respect, or you don't.

I am beginning to think the setup I have is not recognizing the font file it requires. I have copied the font file to several places in SM but haven't found the correct one yet. I assume Windows has a fonts directory. In Linux user fonts are in the .fonts directory of your $HOME. THere's a system directory, but I don't recall where it is, since fonts are generally sort of personal. Someone is bound to post the directory name if you can't find it with Google. Well, in WinXP it's under C:\WINNT\Fonts\ (too obvious?), but if the problem is that SM is trying to read a file it should refer to a different program, fixing a putative font issue won't help. As Walter said earlier, it should be calling TablEdit, not trying to open the file itself. -- War doesn't determine who's right, just who's left. -- Paul B.

Re: Incoming mail gone
Serge Popper wrote: Daniel wrote: Serge Popper wrote: Installed SeaMonkey 1.1.18 a couple of weeks ago and have had no problems until tonight. When I started SeaMonkey, my incoming mail folder opened normally but was not downloading my new mail. I clicked on the get messages and a little widow opened saying something like working on this folder, please wait. I waited a good while, nothing happened. I rebooted, tried again, no luck. I downloaded and reinstalled a fresh copy of SeaMonkey. Now there are no messages showing at all in my inbox folder. All other functions work OK, all other folders are accessible, browser shows no problem. Advice would be appreciated. Thanks Serge, did the original message in the window say that you cannot download new mail into the inbox because it was being compacted?? When you delete an email, it is not really deleted from the inbox file, just part of the header information is changed to make it not show in the list of mail in your inbox. When you File|Compact Files the deleted message is actually removed from the inbox file. At times, you may get a conflict between SM trying to download mail and SM trying to automatically compact the inbox because of the setting at the bottom of the page at Edit|Preferences|MailNewsgroup|OfflineDisk Space. When you have SM running, have a look at Edit|MailNewsgroup Account Settings and select the Server Settings part of your mail account. At the bottom of this screen, there is the location of the Local Directory. Note the location as this is where SeaMonkey thinks your profile is. Close SeaMonkey, go make yourself a cuppa, then do Crtl-Alt-Delete and see if SeaMonkey is still showing as running. If it is, End Task on it. Do a Windows Find File/Folder looking for inbox without the inverted commas. The inbox is the file that SeaMonkey stores your incoming mail in. If you find more than one inbox, your lost mail may be in one of the other accounts. Report back with results and if you find other inboxes, someone here can tell you how to get all your mail into one location. HTH Daniel Daniel, thanks for the great explanation. I'm just recuperating from Swine Flu and have little energy for anything. I'll do what you suggest and report back. Again, thanks. Serge Daniel, I've done what you suggested above and have unearthed an interesting array of files when I did my search for inbox) The location of the Local Directory is C:\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS\POPPER\APPLICATIONDATA\Mozilla\Profiles\default\jcznygmx.slt\Mail\pop.gmail-1.com None of the files found in the search include the file above.
