Re: Upgrade to new version
NoOp wrote: I had better give more information. I have installed Mint 10 KDE. When I wanted to install Seamonkey the available version was 2.0.11 while the latest version was 2.0.13. So I downloaded the full version 2.0.13 of the program, the .deb version, and ran the installer. Do the same for 2.0.14 - download the full .deb and install the same way that you did for 2.0.13. I suspect that the upgrade is having permission issues due to the installation location. ... Yes I realise that I can do that. There is no version of Seamonkey in /usr/bin. If I download the deb file for 2.0.14 and install it, will it go there? And will it pick up all the set up from my version in /usr/bin/local? If so then I could change the icon properties to look in /sur/bin. Otherwise I can just stay with the 2.0.13 version. But to avoid the error message every time that I log in I need to remove the downloaded upgrade file. Trouble is I don't know its name or location.

I was able to receive them just not able to send them. I called my internet provider Comcast to aid me with this problem, but they no longer help with browsers other than their own. I went through all the setting and every thing was still the same, but it will not send.

When I spoke to a representative at Comcast I asked for the port number and they refused to give it to me. They claimed that I had to log onto Comcast home page, then read my emails from their server. I told them I did not like the way it way set up and basically they told me to jump in a lake if I didn't like it. So with that in mind, thank you everyone who has made an effort to help me.

Jay,. Yes, Port 25 was disabled and my husband wingspan2 thought that might be the problem as he stated in the previous posting asking for help with our Outgoing mail. BUT.what he didn't mention is this whole problem started when our main computer did an automatic update for SeaMonkey's 2.0.14. update. Now.I believe there is actually NOTHING wrong with the port/outgoing server because I'm using it right now on my MacBook. My MacBook is using a Router connection from our main computer which has the problem. Yet... I can log in, send, receive mails with no problem at all for his mail accountKeep in mind I Did Not except SeaMonkey's update 2.0.14 (thank goodness!) Sothis tells me that SM update did something to our computer and I would like it if you or some tech person could contact us and help fix this problem... I hope that I don't get the same responce from SM as we did from Comcast. Thanks blurosemarie P.S. Sorry to be rude, but this was working fine until the update from SM. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Secondly, you can't substitute underscores for spaces in hosted filenames either. They would be two different files. Thirdly, don't use real domain names as examples.

Nearly all web sites that choose to browser-sniff only look for the three or four most popular. This does not mean that they don't support your choice of browser. It will still work. I'm well aware I can spoof anything I want or even use an IE viewer within SM. I'm just po'ed that sites do not want to admit (read support') other internet software. If they would make their sites W3C compatible there would be no need to even sniff for the browsers. 99.9% of the now existing browsers would work (read no need for support) with their pages. I am 99.9% (plus 0.1%) in agreement with your statement. :-) Unfortunately, it is a matter of the education of the people hired as webmasters and dee-ziners. We who are in the know can do little more than send alerts to the companies who hire these uneducated people. Recently, my local newspaper completely changed their site (unnecessarily) and there are hundreds of errors. An editor invited comments on the new look of the site, so I responded with tasteful comments about the mistakes. There was no answer, so I re-responded twice more (finally CC'd the email of the chief editor), and still no response.

Encrypted page with unencrypted content
When I try to access certain secure pages, I get the prompt You have requested an encrypted page with some unencrypted information. ... and I click OK. The prompt goes away, but nothing happens. If I repeat the request, I am taken to the desired page without prompting. Shouldn't I get what I asked for the first time, when I clicked OK? This is really annoying when the page is a hit list and every time I try to return to the list I have to click three times (back, OK, back). -- War doesn't determine who's right, just who's left. -- Paul B.

This might be cheaper. Phil Hi Phil, Thanks for the suggestions. I updated the touchpad drivers, and cleaned the touchpad to remove any skin oils or dirt. I cannot find any means of adjusting the pad pressure, despite a thorough search. At this moment, the typing seems to be fine, and I hope that it continues. Thanks again to you, and to all the guys who offered to help. I do appreciate it. Mort You didn't mention the manufacturer for your touchpad (or I missed it, skimming the thread), but as far as Synaptics' touchpads go, there's a driver setting (Palmcheck) to control the pad's sensitivity and guard against unintended cursor movement. Might be beneficial to do one more review of your driver settings. I can't speak to non-Synaptic touchpads, but it would strike me as strange for other manufacturers not to have some similar control function marked, say, Sensitivity or the like.
