Ralph, I have just tested and the procedure you described worked
correctly, with no problems -- either dragging to the desktop or to a
folder.

But I'm using Windows, with the latest Seamonkey release (2.3.2). Since
you seem to have posted online from Google Groups, I couldn't determine
either the version of your Seamonkey, or the platform you are using.
Could you post your user-agent string?

Not sure which is "the document folder", but the default SeaMonkey 
profile data is kept at the following locations:


http://www.seamonkey-project.org/doc/profiles#location

If you restore that, SeaMonkey should just pick and use it.


I am looking at moving the profile but will Seamonkey just copy it

When I surf the web with SM 2.x, I disable the send referrer since I

You appear aware of the "network.http.sendRefererHeader" pref:

SM 2.3.1 and Google Desktop Search

2011-09-05 Thread Steve B.
Since installing SM 2.0 and later versions I have not been able to have 
Google Desktop Search index any of my SM email.

I have copied GoogleDesktopMozilla.dll, GoogleDesktopMozillaStub.js, and
GoogleDesktopMozillaStub.xpt to C:\Program Files\Seamonkey\components 
with no success and even reinstalled GDS and re-indexed.  No luck.  Any

What is the current status of SM upgrade/patch to 2.3.3 ?

2011-09-05 Thread Rostyslaw Lewyckyj

This is probably for Mr. Callek. ?!

You promised us an automatic (push type) upgrade patch to
get to SM 2.3.3 (from ???).
- I am on a WIN 7 system and was on SM 2.3.1.
- I started getting an alert that the system wanted to run updater.exe
  from Mozilla when I started SM.
- Well I allowed the update and then checked with Help > About SeaMonkey
  But that is reporting that I am STILL at SM 2.3.1
- Doing a check for updates, returns that there are no updates.
- But the site www.seamonkey-project.org shows a come-on to download
- SM 2.3.2 (No mention of 2.3.3)

So advise me how to get back on track and on the latest version?
First - How do I determine the status of my SM version?
   What the heck is it?
Then what should I do?

I've read here-abouts that the SM 2.3.3 should become available sometime 
Tuesday...which probably means Wednesday for me.


The 2.3.2 update did some stuff but it didn't change the version number 
so you would still show as 2.3.1. Apparently 2.3.3 will show as 2.3.3 
and will also include some other fixes.

Look at your "User Agent" on the  (Help -> 
Troubleshooting Information) or "Build identifier" on the  
(Help -> About SeaMonkey) page.  If it includes:


Gecko/20110820

then you're still using the 2.3.1 version.  If it includes:

Gecko/20110830

then you're using the 2.3.2 version not matter it says "2.3.1". 
Then you need to wait few more days for the 2.3.3 release to come 
up, which will correct the version label and other shared things the 
Firefox 6.0.2 release will address.

Undesireable behavior when launching SeaMonkey 2.0.8 or 2.3.1

2011-09-05 Thread Richard Owlett


In the process of doing clean install on new machine, I discover a 
strange (and to me DISTURBING) behavior of SeaMonkey 2.0.8 and 2.3.1 
when launched with the "-P" option.


It twice attempts to access the internet before it launches (once 
before the Profile Manager widow is presented and once after desired 
profile has been chosen). This is independent of whether SeaMonkey 
was/will be in on/off line mode.


I discovered this as my firewall is also a new install and not yet 
trained as to which programs a allowed internet access.


I consider any program that autoMAGICaly connects to have a 
potential security flaw and a ACTUAL OPERATIONAL flaw - I have only 
dial up access and automatic "updates" every-time I go online is a 
nuisance.


Why is SeaMonkey attempting to connect?
How do I defeat it?

Acrobat / Reader question

2011-09-05 Thread BIll Spikowski
I often use the full version of Adobe Acrobat 9.4, so the other day when I 
noticed that Adobe Reader 7.0 was also installed on my computer, I uninstalled 
it.

Then when I tried to open a PDF file in SM, I got an obscure error message. So 
I installed Adobe Reader X, which restored my ability to view PDFs within 
Seamonkey.

My question is how to reliably access to the Reader X toolbar. It no longer 
appears by default when I open a PDF file. Sometimes I can make it appear by 
clicking an Adobe icon that appears when I mouse-over a spot in the bottom of 
the window, but other times it won't appear at all, leaving me without the 
ability to save the PDF file, or to resize it etc.

I'm running SM 2.3.1 in Windows XP.

It's trying to connect to the loopback address i.e. to connect back to
itself. If the IP address is 127.0.0.1 then that's the loopback.

I don't recommend doing that. Certain things might not work.

appears by default when I open a PDF file. Sometimes I can make it appear by 
clicking an Adobe icon that appears when I mouse-over a spot in the bottom of 
the window, but other times it won't appear at all, leaving me without the 
ability to save the PDF file, or to resize it etc.

I'm running SM 2.3.1 in Windows XP.


Is impossible for me to say for certain that it would work for you, but if you wanted 
to keep using Reader I would uninstall and do a from-scratch reinstall.


When I noticed how full my C: partition was of Adobe crap past and present (heavy on 
the former), I uninstalled everything, deleted every directory I could find 
containing Reader files and installed Foxit. A bit different from Reader, but it 
works in SM and takes a lot less disk real estate.

If you don't need specifically, Adobe, or you
are not able to fix it, then install Foxit instead.

from here :

my inclination would be to recommend unchecking the option

Edit / Preferences / Internet / Web Browser Options / Display in Read

That is the one I am talking about. The reference I gave you was
from your previous reply to show it is possible.


Then, what's the SeaMonkey version of the OP, Michael? What I see is:

User-Agent: G2/1.0

but that tells the OP (Ralph) has posted through Google and not what's
his SeaMonkey version. And that's what MCBastos already pointed out and
asked the OP about his SeaMonkey User-Agent.



It looks like he is using a web based mail client in which only the web 
based user agent will be reported in the headers.


If he was using a Mozilla based mail client, or Microsoft client then 
the headers from the sending agent would have been recorded in the 
Headers strings.

I have two clients who failed to save their profile before hard

we have an automatic backup of the document folder every 8hrs


Not sure which is "the document folder", but the default SeaMonkey
profile data is kept at the following locations:

http://www.seamonkey-project.org/doc/profiles#location

If you restore that, SeaMonkey should just pick and use it.


I am looking at moving the profile but will Seamonkey just copy it
over or move it when I enter it in preferances


I'm not sure what you're trying to do here, but see if the following
article could help:

http://kb.mozillazine.org/Moving_your_profile_folder

Take a look at the articles in the "See also" section.



You may also find useful information/links in

http://kb.mozillazine.org/Sharing_profiles_-_mail
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profiles.ini_file

I will be moving it to the 'D' drive where all documents are saved and 
has an automatic backup set on
