No I have build a 2.57 with these options

# ac_add_options --disable-pulseaudio
ac_add_options --enable-alsa

The entry with pulseaudio is commented out and therefore not active. As
expected the build failed with

  0:12.71 checking MOZ_ALSA_LIBS... -lasound
  0:12.72 checking for libpulse... Package libpulse was not found in the
pkg-config search path.
  0:12.72 Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libpulse.pc'

  0:12.72 No package 'libpulse' found
  0:12.72 configure: error: pulseaudio audio backend requires libpulse

So I installed pulseaudio. That does not mean that I could hear sound
using pulseausio, though. *g*

This time the build succeeded. No sound in this build. So I removed
pulseaudio and tried again. Success. With this build sound should work
on Linux using alsa.

But what with a system using pulseaudio? If there are Linux users using
pulseaudio, it would be nice, if someone tested this build for sound.

E.g. using youtube. Remember, that in 2.57 the MailNews part does not
work. Only the browser should be tested.

WARNING!
Don't use an existing profile. Use a new one. Unpack the .tar.bz2
somewhere in $HOME, navigate to the appropriate place and start the
build with ./seamonkey -no-remote -p. This opens the 2.57 into the
profile manager where you can create a new profile and start it there.

The -no-remote part is in case you have already another SM running.

It might have been an inadvertent breakage due to Firefox moving to a

toolkit. Since the old downloads code in toolkit is going to be removed
I'm not sure if the Firefox devs are going to invest any effort in
fixing this.

Hey, actual examples! So, for the fun of it, let's check...

* Short drop downs. IIRC, this is a Mac-specific issue. Most SM
developers don't have a Mac, and at least some, like me, don't
want one
(which is their personal taste, not to argue with). IIRC, there are
only
two SM developers who have a Mac at all, and both are known for
having
very little time. They do what they can, but analyzing the root
causes
of such bugs probably doesn't fit their time schedule. All you can
do is
a) analyze the bug as good as you can (e.g. by collecting all
occurrences, making screen shots and attaching them to the bug)
and b)
try to narrow down when the issue first appeared, ideally down to
the
nightly builds level, so that identifying the causing change in code
becomes possible.


Jens, could you please check out my Comment 11 on
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=812050, as I'm seeing a
clipped screen on my Win7 SM 2.22b2 Spell Checker screen.


Same here on Win 7 SM 2.22.1. Easily fixed by very slightly moving the
screen down from the top (as previously suggested).

Larry S.


Or, oddly enough, UP.



Just what are you moving?  In the Mac version I can't drag/drop or
move any part of the drop down.



The short spelling check box on Windows is not a drop down. It's a 
modal dialog box.  I don't know how it is implemented on a Mac, but on 
Windows it pops up on the top left of the screen with the top of the 
box slightly off the display area and the bottom of the box shortened. 
 If you click on the title bar and drag it slightly (the way you move 
any window on Windows) it corrects itself.

About:config still has one-and-a-half-line spacing.

Data Manager still has one-and-a-half-line spacing.

I don't see what I've gained here. Does it require a restart?


Jens, above, Hartmut tells Paul to set a pref to true, Paul says there
is no such pref and the you say it's a hidden pref.

Paul then adds the pref and sets it to true.

Not wanting to get picky-picky (because of the work you do for us SM
users) but reading between the lines here, does this imply that hidden
prefs don't (necessarily) do anything, or did you just mis-type
hidden rather than absent??



He didn't mistype, he used hidden preference because that's what it's 
called (a preference that is not visible by default).  An absent 
preference would be one that didn't exist, either hidden or otherwise. 
 Don't try to read between the lines.  A preference must be 
implemented to do something.  As SeaMonkey inherits code from Firefox 
there are some preferences that are defined (and may be used in 
Firefox) that are not implemented or used in SeaMonkey.  Any 
preference (both hidden and visible) may not necessarily do anything 
if it has not been implemented or if it doesn't apply to the users 
system.  So in that respect there is no difference between hidden and 
visible other than one is listed in about:config and the other is not 
until it is added to the list manually.

I prefer to do my updates locally after downloading the installer files.
  I maintain my own PC and also my wife's.  Thus, I want to download once

For an incremental update of a Mozilla-based applications, I download
the .partial.mar file.  Then I use a DOS script to do the install.

Today is the first time I tried this with my new Windows 7 PC using
seamonkey-2.22-2.22.1.partial.mar.  Oops!  It happens that a .mar file
in Windows 7 is a Microsoft Office Access Report Shortcut file, and a
.partial file is an IE Partial Download file.  Thus, the downloaded
SeaMonkey update has an icon with a bent arrow in the lower-left corner
to indicate it is a shortcut.

Worse, the actual file name got changed to
seamonkey-2.22-2.22.1.partial.mar.mar.  Yes, the .mar extension now
appears twice at the end of the file name!  This doubled extension is
not visible when viewing the file in a Windows Explorer window; only one
.mar is seen.  Also, the FTP log that I get when I download files does
not show the doubled extension.  I had to use a DOS window to see it.
Apparently, Windows 7 added the extra .mar.

This doubled extension, of course broke my script and the Mozilla
updater.exe that it uses.  Since updater.exe requires the .mar file to
be named update.mar, I had to add the following to my DOS script:
If EXIST update.mar.mar ren update.mar.mar update.mar

Followup-To set to mozilla.support.seamonkey.



What are you using to download the update?  I do not have that problem 
with Windows 7 Home Premium.  I can download 
seamonkey-2.22-2.22.1.partial.mar using either the windows 7 command 
line ftp program or using SeaMonkey and it is downloaded and named 
correctly.

What makes you think that SeaMonkey is not working and the images 
should be visible?  The image001.jpg which you pasted (if you pasted 
the whole image and if I am decoding it correctly) consists of 1 white 
pixel, which I doubt you could tell if it was displayed or not.  I 
would be more concerned why I was getting email with those kinds of 
images.  Why not ask the sender what the images are supposed to be and 
why they are sending them.

Re: geo.enable=false doesn't

User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:24.0) Gecko/20100101
Firefox/24.0 SeaMonkey/2.21

Today when I went to http://news.yahoo.com/ I noticed that the site
picked up my geo location (accurately BTW).

Unfortunately this should _not_ have happened as at the time I had:
1. About:config: geo.enable=false (this should turn off geolocation)
2. Permissions: Share Location=always ask (with geolocation on, I should
receive a prompt asking if I want to let the site use geolocation)

So I set Permissions: Share Location=Block, cleared cache (memory 
disk/all), cleared with 'Clear Private Data - all except passwords),
opened new browser window  again tried news.yahoo.com. Again the site
is showing my geolocation.

I next went to http://browserspy.dk/ scrolled down  clicked on
Geolocation  sure enough, geolocation is _enabled_.

I can't locate an open bug of this type on:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=geolocation

So before I open a bug report, can anyone else verify?

It works correctly on my system.  Windows 7 SeaMonkey 2.21 User agent: 
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:24.0) Gecko/20100101 
Firefox/24.0 SeaMonkey/2.21


Build identifier: 20130916112225


When I go to http://browserspy.dk/geolocation.php with 
geo.enable=false it says:


Geolocation supported in browser = yes (which is correct, SeaMonkey 
does support it)


My location based on ip is correct
The ip based map is correct
The Geolocation Based Map is blank and when I click on Get Position I 
get a returned data is null error which indicates that SeaMonkey is 
not returning my geolocation.


If I go to the same page with geo.enable=true everything is the same 
until I click on get position for the geobased map and then I get a 
popup telling me that this web site wants to know my location and asks 
what I want to do (Share Location, Don't share, never Share, always 
share, not now)


So as far as I can tell it is working as intended on my system

[1] https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=147474


I don't think it should be hidden under Advanced.  Either give it its 
own category or leave it where it is.  It has been under browser for 
years and people know where to find it.  I understand that technically 
it applies to mail and news and not just browser, but how many people 
have complained that they couldn't find it (any?)? And how many will 
complain when it is moved and they can't find it and think it has been 
removed?


One of the things you hear the most complaints about is developers 
wasting their time on UI changes that don't need done instead of 
fixing real problems.


No matter where you put it (other than giving it its own category) 
some/many people won't like it.  On the other hand if you just leave 
it where it is I doubt anyone would complain.

You're getting the update notices because SM 2.18b4 IS available (and

I know this sounds like a broken record; but my Shockwave Flash plugin

more times a day.

Win-7, SM 2.17.1, Shockwave Flash 11.7.700.202 (which is supposed to
be up to date, but it just gets worse and worse.)

Is there anything I can do about this?  It's getting so serious that
I'm going to have to quit SeaMonkey after over 15 years with Netscape
 Mozilla.



It may not be that people don't care, but that it's not a SeaMonkey 
problem and they can't do anything about it.  I am running the same 
SeaMonkey version as you, same flash version and same OS and I have 
only had two SeaMonkey crashes in 2013 (and neither were caused by 
flash).  None of the several people around me with the same 
configuration are having flash crashes either.  The only thing that 
may be different is that we all have flash protected mode disabled.


To disable protected mode:

add ProtectedMode=0 to C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash\mms.cfg

If that doesn't work try with a new profile and other plugins 
disabled.  I have java, adblock, flashblock, googletalk, silverlight, 
vlc and a couple of others so those shouldn't be a problem.


And post a couple of the report ids from about:crashes so we can take 
a look at them.

How did you fix it the first time?  I disabled Flash protected mode to

corrected so it's still disabled and so far I have not had the problem 
again.


You can disable Protected Mode by adding the line ProtectedMode=0 to 
the Flash mms.cfg file located in:


 (Windows 32bit) C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash

Please note: this feature is available only to Mail Plus subscribers. 
For more information on Mail Plus, please visit this webpage. (

A better option is gmail which allows both pop and imap downloads. 
Microsoft hotmail allows pop, not sure about imap.  Seems Yahoo is the

You don't say from whom you and your wife are receiving these emails.
  Is it the same person or from the same system?  Does it happen if you
send an email to yourself?  If you turn on full headers
(view-headers-all) what is the Content Type line of the bad emails?

Generally what you describe happens because someone composes in
Microsoft Word using smart quotes and apostrophes and then pastes
that
content into an email.  It can also happen with database data that is
exported using one character encoding and imported using a different
one.  I suppose it could also happen if content is created using a
character encoding that isn't available on the receiving system.  In
any
case more information is needed to speculate further.


It's not from the same person, but several: recently, one was using
msn.com and the other was using charter.net.

For the msn.com email:

Content-type: multipart/related;
boundary==_NextPart_000_000D_01CE3845.7DE6CE20;
type=multipart/alternative

X-mailer: Microsoft Windows Live Mail 15.4.3555.308


for the charter email:

Content-type: multipart/alternative;
boundary==_NextPart_000_001D_01CE381F.AB21BE20

x-mailer: Microsoft Windows Live Mail 15.4.3555.308

AT least those two seem to be using Live Mail - maybe that's the problem?

It doesn't happen when we send emails to each other, or to ourselves.


OK, its a multipart so the encoding type we need to see is in the part 
and not the header.  Do view-message source and look for something like:


Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

for the section that has the bad text and past it here.  I suspect 
there is a content type mismatch or some other problem.


Here is an example of the source text with quotes sent from hotmail to 
my SeaMonkey


This is a test =E2=80=9Ctest=E2=80=9D of quotes =
=E2=80=9Cquotes=E2=80=9D.
and Test of =E2=80=98apostrophe=E2=80=99s

and this is how it displays in my SeaMonkey mail:

This is a test “test” of quotes “quotes”.
and Test of ‘apostrophe’s

As you can see my SeaMonkey is displaying the special quote and 
apostrophe characters correctly so we need to figure out why yours isn't.

Are you sure SeaMonkey is completely closed? Check the Windows

What happens when you try to delete it? Do you get an error

If you're getting file-in-use, restart the computer (I assume SM
isn't

launched at bootup?) and that should clear it.



FWIW, I have no filename beginning with Cache in my SM 2.16.2
profile directory



SM does not run at Startup. Task Manager shows no SM processes
running. When I go to the problem directory (Cache.Trash31234)and
click on it the error msg sez . . . is not accessible. The file or
directory is corrupted and unreadable. Then my task bar opens and
sez CMD.EXE -- Corrupt File run chkdsk. I have run that process a
couple times and it does not fix it.

Sorry if I'm too wordy, novice on this end. Tnx!



This is not a SeaMonkey problem, it is a filesystem or hardware 
problem.  Probably either a bad spot on the disk or some file system 
corruption.  Is it ntfs or fat32 (not that it really matters)?  When 
you ran chkdsk what options did you use.  Chkdsk will only fix 
problems if you give it the /f switch.


Reboot in safe mode, command line only and run chkdsk /f and see if it 
will fix it.

How can I get this image out? I no longer have the original e-mail

copying this file into my SM to see if SM mail could read it. Nope!


Remove the header and footer and run the  bunch of letters and
numbers
  through a base 64 decoder.  The result should be a jpg file.


I assume I can use my 64-bit Debian stable's base64 command, but it
doesn't seem to work:

$ base64 -d savedfile.txt
-▒ExifMM*
 ▒
▒base64: invalid input

Maybe I did that wrong? :(


First off verify that it is actually an inline jpg and remove 
everything before the beginning of the jpg.  The inline jpg begins 
with hex ff d8 ff e0 which when base64 encoded is hex 2f 39 6a 2f.


C:\toolsjimdump encoded.txt | head -3

If it looks like a valid jpg try using the ignore error switch of your 
base64 decoder.  Also realize that if you don't supply an outfile to 
the command it decodes to the screen.


base64 -di infile.txt outfile.jpg

Which appears to be a valid exif formated jpg taken with an Apple

If you take the original text file attachment and copy it to a file 
named somefile.txt. Edit somefile.txt to remove all the text before 
the /9j/4S32R and remove everything at the end starting with 
--Apple-Mail-ABD6ED3D-0515-4E05-BC44-0EC8E2F9C77B.  Run somefile.txt 
through a base64 decoder (telling it to ignore bad characters) to 
produce a decoded file named somefile.jpg:


base64 -di somefile.txt somefile.jpg

You should end up with a jpg file that can be viewed with SeaMonkey or 
any other program capable of viewing a jpg.  If that doesn't work I 
have no further suggestions.





I can't even decode yet. :P

Read his problem again.  He is not saying the page displays bad in a

know what is causing his problem, but I can see it.


If I open the page in a browser, IE or SeaMonkey, the links on the 
left side are white on a blue background.  If I open that page in 
SeaMonkey's html Composer they are blue on a blue background and 
difficult to see.  I don't know html enough to know if the colors are 
being set in the external css sheet that Composer doesn't read or if 
there is some other problem with Composer.  Interestingly if you have 
the page open in Composer and a browser window and follow a link in 
the browser window the color of that link in the Composer changes to 
the correct color (white 00).

Re: Change in 'Move Tab' behavior

2013-03-10 Thread Jim Taylor

Rickles wrote:


According to the Add-Ons search, the closest thing is a right-click
menu tool that is accessed anywhere inside the tab window of the page
being viewed, to close that page.  But I agree, the X on the tab name
is the simplest, most direct and obvious means of closing any tab at
any time.  EVERY single other implementation, internal to SM or any
add-on, makes it so that you have to have focus on the tab you want to
close, before you can close it.
I'm a firm believer in working smarter, not harder, but this flies in
the face of that.  I wish I had the time to become a programmer so I
could write my own such tool, but it's just not possible.
It would help my understanding if someone involved in the coding or
review process could explain the logic of using 2 steps to take the
action instead of one.  Takers?


This has been discussed before.  The current way of having the tab 
close X at a fixed position on the far right of the tab bar works 
better for the way many people use the browser (including me) than 
having it on each tab the way Firefox does.  And having it on the tab 
also takes up more room on the tab bar leaving less for tabs.


For example, if I go to a page of headlines I'll open links to things 
I want to read in new tabs.  Then I'll go to the last tab and read it. 
 When done I will close the tab and the next one will automatically 
get the focus,  I don't have to move the mouse cursor off the close x. 
 I can read all the tabs and close them without any mouse movement 
and only a click when I'm done.  I do the same thing with forums, 
scroll down the new posts screen and open any that interest me in new 
tabs and read them and close in order.


Let me pose a question to you.  Why would you want to close a tab that 
doesn't have the focus?  I'm not sure I can understand why someone 
wouldn't  close tabs when they were done with them and they still have 
the focus instead of coming back later to close them when they no 
longer had the focus.

For many people.  Could you adduce some statistics
to support that statement ?

Philip Taylor

No, I know of no workflow or usability studies that actually provide 
statistics.  My statement was based on user observation and comments 
in past discussions of this issue.  Perhaps For some people would 
have been a better choice of words.  But it would be really 
interesting to see actually statistics on what percentage of time 
people close a tab that does not have the focus versus closing the 
currently active tab.


Probably the best solution is to give the user a choice thru a 
preference (browser.tabs.closeButton) of how they want the close 
button displayed, as Firefox does 
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.tabs.closeButtons .  Actually 
SeaMonkey has that preference but I don't know if it actually supports 
the other options.  As I prefer the way it is (default option 3) I 
have never tried any of the other to see if they are supported or not.

So what we have now is different users wishing to choose how the tab
closure should work in their own situations, but what is available in
FF isn't in SM.  Our choices have been limited, which is a step back.

I'm not sure what you are asking with the so what?, or why you even

gfx.content.azure.enabled default is false.


If you are asking why your gfx.content.azure.enabled is default false 
and mine and others is default true I don't know the answer.  Perhaps 
it's because your OS is 32 bit or you have hardware acceleration 
turned off or your video card is blacklisted, I don't know how the 
default is determined and I don't care enough to go to the source and

How many of you??

Seems to me, if SeaMonkey is disabling Java (because *Java* has a known
problem), why would you then want to move to MSIE (which, I'm guessing,
has the same problem with Java), and have to deal with MSIE's other
problems (like ActiveX, .)!!







My problem is not that it is disabling it, but it keeps trying to
install 7u10 when 7u11 was installed yesterday.
Anybody got a fix for that?

Jim


Mine was doing that, Windows 7 64 Bit Home Premium, with both 64 bit 
and 32 bit Java 7u11 installed.  Every time I would click on a java 
object SeaMonkey would want to download 7u10.  I copied the java 7u11 
plugin from the java directory to the SeaMonkey plugin directory and 
then SeaMonkey plugin manager would show the 7u11 plugin but Java 
would not work.  It would actually crash SeaMonkey when trying to run 
www.time.gov or other java pages.


I tried several things that didn't work, but what finally did is I 
uninstalled 32 bit Java 7u11 run time (jre-7u11-windows-i586.exe), 
then installed 32 bit Java 7u10 run time (jre-7u10-windows-i586.exe), 
then reinstalled Java 7u11 (jre-7u11-windows-i586.exe) over top of it.


After that SeaMonkey see the correct plugin and java is working fine. 
 Of course there is a new exploit for 7u11 so I will probably disable 
it again.

Control-w will close the focused tab.  I personally much prefer the 
way SeaMonkey does it with the close x button on the right hand side 
of the tab title bar rather than the way Firefox does it with the 
close x button on every tab title (at least that's the way Firefox did 
it the last time I looked, which has been quite a while).  SeaMonkey's 
way suits the way I use a browser better because I open links that I 
want to read in new tabs and then as I read them just click the x to 
close one and move to the next without having to move the mouse cursor 
all over the place.

Re: Symantec and SeaMonkey....

2012-12-07 Thread Jim Taylor

Justin Wood (Callek) wrote:

Hey Guys,

So I have to say, I am quite annoyed with Symantec/Norton at the moment.

Our Beta 2, which has been out for ~ a week, and I submitted the
whitelist request to Norton ~12 hours before the *DAY* of our release,
still is not complete.

With the release cadence we have/need, the turnaround time on their
whitelisting is completely unacceptable/bad. It completely hurts our
ability to get meaningful data for betas, and hurts our ability to keep
our release users up to date with latest stability/security updates.

My proposal:
* No longer wait for Symantec to indicate that the whitelisting is complete
* Mention it on our known-issues page that Norton can interact badly
with us on occassion
* Specifically list the .dll's [by name] it thinks are viruses on our
known-issues page as ok and Norton's fault
* Continue to submit whitelisting requests ASAP
* Continue to move forward with getting signed builds out [`may` help
with this]
* Continue to *try* getting a human contact at Norton to see if/when we
can speed up their process or fix this misidentification, and how.

The key point is this *will* be a pain point for windows users who have
Norton, where the most-logical solution for those users is to *disable*
their Virus Software during the duration of SeaMonkey use. And is
specifically manifests in the following ways:
* Quarantines 1-or-2 dll's
* The dll's affect our cryptography ability, in such that them missing
may/could break some https sites from functioning/cause crashes etc. (I
haven't witnessed it, but I also have avoiding us ever shipping in this
case)
* Restoration of the dll's seems to sign/modify them slightly such that
partial updates fail for these users, and end up having to download
updates twice (the second download being our full 20ish MB download).

I am literally treating this as a proposal for the community, we have no
sane way to detect the presence of Norton and delay JUST those updates.

This is not a vote, and I will take on the final call [unless the
SeaMonkey Council think that they as a whole should make the final
call]. So reasons for/against are appreciated, including me toos, or
please no though I'd appreciate reasons for any of those mails.

With *myself* as a Symantec user as well [in my case because it came
pre-installed on my computer, and I decided to just register/subscribe
rather than fight and try to remove/switch] it is a bad situation to
have to be in, but I feel this is a decision I need community input on,
rather than decided that some subset of our users will have to suffer
due to a larger companies issues.



I see no reason that all Windows users should be penalized with slow 
updates because some users choose to use a bloated and buggy antivirus 
program.  Perhaps if it causes them enough pain they will either 
complain to Symantec enough that they will fix their algorithm or they 
will switch to another antivirus program.  It's not like there aren't 
alternatives available particularly since Microsoft Security 
Essentials is free.


On the corporate side, where end users have no choice about their 
antivirus product, I don't know if Symantec's corporate products 
detect the false positive or not.  But even if they do I doubt that 
many large companies are using SeaMonkey as their standard browser and 
the individual users that may be running it are probably knowledgeable 
enough to deal with it, particularly if they are told about it in the 
release notes and known problems.

I think most of the problems people are having are caused by bad 
plugins, extensions, or antivirus programs and not SeaMonkey or their 
OS.  It would save a lot of time if everybody would try safe mode 
before assuming they have a problem with the browser.

Many of the forwarded messages I receive come in like that (the images 
come as attachemnts).  They aren't coming from SeaMonkey so it's not 
just SeaMonkey that does it.  Not sure if it will work but you can try 
changing your composition settings.  Edit-Preferences Category Mail

no way to test.

First off if you are getting those messages in the browser you are 
using to post this message it is SeaMonkey 2.7 and your browser is not 
up to date, the current is 2.12.  And as somebody has pointed out you 
misunderstand the difference between java and javascript.  You don't 
download javascript it's part of the browser and gets updated when you 
update the browser (which it doesn't look like you've been doing).  If 
you post a url where you get that message we can tell you if we get it 
in 2.12.  With many web sites adding html5 content, if you don't 
update SeaMonkey to get the latest html5 support strange things may 
happen on some pages.

Re: Turn Off HTML5?

2012-08-01 Thread Jim Taylor

NoOp wrote:

Anyone know how to turn *off* HTML5 completely?

I find HTML5 auto loading both invasive, and a potential security
threat. For example, if I land on this page with flash turned off:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8SSUwSZYkQQfeature=related
[A 70th Birthday Tribute To Muhammad Ali]

HTML5 auto starts and begins downloading the video automatically. If I
let it continue, the player then caches the download and begins playing
the video.

I realize that I can turn on controls and pause/start the video. I know
that I can right click on an html5 video and click 'Stop download' I
also know that I can turn off JavaScript completely to kill HTML5, but
that of course kills all javascript.

Basically I would like a button (like the flash/kill flash button on
Prefbar) to enable me to turn off HTML5 *completely*, and to turn it
back on should I care to. about:config only has the following html5 entries:

html5.flushtimer.initialdelay
html5.flushtimer.subsequentdelay
html5.offmainthread

and none of them turn HTML5 off.

So, I rephrase: anyone know how to turn *off* HTML5 completely, without
disabling javascript completely?



I don't know how to turn it off completely, but changing 
media.autoplay.enabled to false will keep them (and flash) from 
autostarting.

That action is set in Adobe Reader.  You don't say what version you

I've recently begun having the same problem, all on Windows XP
machines. On my home computers, PDFs open in the SM browser (my
preference), but at work, after a recent SM upgrade, they began
opening in my full version of Adobe Acrobat. All the machines use the
same operating system and the identical version of SM

Acrobat has the same preference settings as Reader; my problem is not
there, as my preference is already set to display PDF in browser.

It also has nothing to do with email settings for attached files; my
problem is PDFs opened from web links.

I've followed other advice offered in this NG but I've never figured
out where the glitch is, or how to restore the behavior I prefer...


The only think else I know to check is SeaMonkey's Helper Applications 
settings.  Edit-Preferences-Browser-Helper Applications scroll right

preference of either Use Adobe Reader or Use Adobe Acrobat (in 
SeaMonkey).  If that is OK I don't know where else to look.

D E L E T E D 


In your OS printers section, click on your HP Printer and select
Properties. Set it as default. Then, in any OTHER application such as
Word, etc. bring up a document and print. Does it use the HP default
printer? Probably so. Now start Seamonkey and print. What happens now?
If it still uses the PaperPort then exit Seamonkey, locate your profile
and the file prefs.js - make a copy of this file. Then right-click on
prefs.js (not the copy) and choose edit. find all the lines referring
to printers and remove the lines. Save - Exit - restart SM. Now what
happens when you print?



That did it.  And it added the HP printer info back into the prefs.js file.
Also looking at the pref.js file there is quite a bit of garbage(?) left over
from installations of extensions that are no longer in use and were not removed
when removing the extensions.  I assume they can also be removed?



Additional:
The above worked fine until I had a page I wanted to print in pdf.
I went to print - selected PDFCREATOR as a printer and printed the page.
Now THAT printer has been added to about:config and when exiting SM is now in
the prefs.js file along with the HP printer.

PDFCREATOR is now the printer that shows up in SeaMonkey as it's default printer
although the system default is the HP printer.

Back to square one.


How did you leave print.save_print_settings?  Did you leave it false or did you
change it back to the default of true?



Default of true.



It looks like:
print_printer userstring xxx
gets changed each time a new printer is added to config and does not change
afterwards.


As far as I can tell print_printer stores the last printer used and 
will become the default printer for SeaMonkey until another printer is 
selected from the print dialog.  If you go into about:config and clear 
(reset) print_printer it will default to the systems default printer 
until you print to another printer.

David E. Ross wrote:

On 7/24/12 3:25 AM, Ed wrote:

Where is the default printer defined?  I Find the printers in about:config, but

I have a number of printers (or pseudo printers) available on this system.

My Windows 7 default printer is FinePrint.  But SeaMonkey always comes up with
PaperPort Image Printer which is a software pseudo printer.

I would like SeaMonkey to use the system 'default' printer.


Let's start over.

In about:config, the default printer is indicated by the preference
variable print_printer.  Every time you actually print, this is reset to
whatever printer you request.  Thus, SeaMonkey remembers the last
printer you used and makes that your default.  SeaMonkey DOES NOT use
your Windows system default printer.

If you wish always to default to your Windows system default printer, do
the following:

1.  In your profile directory, locate the file user.js.

2.  Open user.js in a text editor (e.g., Wordpad, Notepad).

3.  Insert the following:
user_pref(print_printer, xxx);
// default back to actual printer if another printer was
// selected (e.g., Acrobat Distiller)

4.  On your Windows taskbar, select [Start  Settings  Printers and
Faxes].

5.  On the Printers and Faxes window, locate your Windows system default
printer.

6.  Left-click ONCE on the printer, pause, and then left-click again.

7.  Right-click and select Copy from the pull-down context menu.

8.  Paste the result over the xxx from step #3, keeping the quote marks.

9.  Close the Printers and Faxes window.

10. Save the edited user.js file.

11. Completely terminate SeaMonkey.

After doing all this, every time you launch SeaMonkey you will reset its
default printer to be the same as your Windows system default printer.
However, you will have to remember to edit user.js if you ever change
your Windows system default printer (e.g., you replace your printer).

Note well:  This CANNOT be accomplished via about:config.  SeaMonkey
will always update print_printer in prefs.js, undoing any setting you
make via about:config.  SeaMonkey does not change user.js, but it reads
user.js to override prefs.js.  This override happens only when SeaMonkey
is launched.


On my Windows 7 system, and probably all Windows systems, if 
print_printer is blank or invalid the print dialog defaults to 
selecting the system default printer.  So clearing that pref ( or  
) via user.js as David describes should always select the system 
default printer.  Note that I have verified this by changing 
print_printer in about:config, but not by doing it via user.js.

selected printer and settings.  At least all of my systems work that 
way.  In Firefox this behavior is controlled by the about:config 
preference print.save_print_settings;true.  SeaMonkey has this 
print.save_print_settings about:config preference also, so assuming 
SeaMonkey honors it, changing it to false should do what you want but 
I haven't tried it.

In your OS printers section, click on your HP Printer and select
Properties. Set it as default. Then, in any OTHER application such as
Word, etc. bring up a document and print. Does it use the HP default
printer? Probably so. Now start Seamonkey and print. What happens now?
If it still uses the PaperPort then exit Seamonkey, locate your profile
and the file prefs.js - make a copy of this file. Then right-click on
prefs.js (not the copy) and choose edit. find all the lines referring
to printers and remove the lines. Save - Exit - restart SM. Now what
happens when you print?



That did it.  And it added the HP printer info back into the prefs.js file.
Also looking at the pref.js file there is quite a bit of garbage(?) left over
from installations of extensions that are no longer in use and were not removed
when removing the extensions.  I assume they can also be removed?



Additional:
The above worked fine until I had a page I wanted to print in pdf.
I went to print - selected PDFCREATOR as a printer and printed the page.
Now THAT printer has been added to about:config and when exiting SM is now in
the prefs.js file along with the HP printer.

PDFCREATOR is now the printer that shows up in SeaMonkey as it's default printer
although the system default is the HP printer.

Back to square one.

How did you leave print.save_print_settings?  Did you leave it false 
or did you change it back to the default of true?

Gmail site just sits there and spins, no reply from Gmail, I gave up

This doesn't sound like a SeaMonkey problem, can they access it from

Hmmm...that's interesting.  I get the same 403 Forbidden using both

SM 2.6.1, if I try the ftp://ftp1.optonline.net/pub/test64, I get an alert

server and got a correct response, but on SM 2.10.1 it gets the 403
Forbidden response instead. (The link with pub in it was dropped years ago
I think I recall. I use the first link but the second one was mentioned in
the old dslr thread (see below) and so I tried it too just now.

OOL is not my ISP but the test is available on the dslreports.com OOL forum
for anyone to use and Google lists other forums that give the llink to it. I
found this old thread: http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,9646984.  It
suggests for that user that his anon password was messed up. Could this
latest SM version be mangling the anon password?

BTW, this is a clean install of SM 2.10.1. It is not installed on top of an

Good question, and I don't know the answer.  Theoretically if you 
format NTFS and retest and performance is bad you can use the SD 
Formatter from the SD Association ( 
https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_3/ ) to format it back to 
Fat32 for optimal performance, but I have never done it and don't know 
that it would get it back to the same performance it has now.  It 
might be worth using it to format the poor performing one back to 
Fat32 and retest to see if it makes a difference.  That might give you 
a hint what you want to do with the new one.

Clearly, the 4KB writes are extremely slow. It is possible that this
poor performance is due to Windows 8 rather than the card itself?

In any case, the poor write performance is probably the cause of the
SeaMonkey slowdown. I also noticed that when I copied the profile onto
the card across my network it took a very long time (which I had

Yes, I think you have found the cause (actually I guess it's the

 It would be interesting to test the card on Windows 7 or XP or 
another machine.  In any case it's good to know that CrystalDiskMark

I don't have that problem with my Windows 7 installation with two user

Do you get the message that SeaMonkey is already running? Does each of 
your users have their own (default or other) profile?  And if so are 
they located under that users appdata?  Does your APPDATA environment 
variable get set correctly?  If you have profiles (other than the 
default profile) can you start another copy of SeaMonkey with the 
command PATH_to_Seamonkey\seamonkey.exe -P PROFILENAME -no-remote (ie: 
C:\Program Files (x86)\SeaMonkeyseamonkey.exe -P jim -no-remote).


If you get the message that SeaMonkey is already running it indicates 
the second instance is trying to use the same profile, otherwise I'm 
not sure.

David Wilkinson wrote:

I have an Acer Iconia W500 tablet on which I have installed Windows 8
Release Preview 32-bit (and previously the Developer Preview and
Consumer Preview).

This machine has a 32GB SSD drive, and I have added a 32GB SD card in
the internal slot, formatted as NTFS (drive D). When I put my
SeaMonkey profile on this SD card, the performance is abysmal.
*Everything* takes a long time, especially just loading pages in the
browser. This happens both with my existing profile (copied from
another machine) and a new test profile. The original default profile
on the SSD C drive works fine.

Has anybody else seen this? Can SeaMonkey be transferring so much data
to/from the profile that disk speed is a major issue?

BTW, the card is PNY 32GB Secure Digital High-Capacity (SDHC) Flash
Card Model P-SDHC32G10-EFS2 R.

I'm certainly no expert but suspect that disk speed may be a major 
issue.  SeaMonkeys cache is in the profile along with cookies, 
history, bookmarks and all the other sqlite databases so it's going to 
be reading and writing it frequently.  The advertized write speed for 
that card is 20MB/s and that is probably for sequential writes of the 
optimal size so you are probably not getting anything close to that. 
At best it will be 5 times slower than you SDD and may be considerably 
more than that.  Also running a release preview the drivers may not be 
fully optimized yet.  I suggest downloading CrystalDiskMark (if it 
will run on Windows 8) and run it on the SD card and the SDD drive and 
compare the random read and write speeds.  You could also try moving 
the cache back to the SDD drive to see if that makes a 
difference(Preferences-Advanced-Cache-Cache Folder Location)

You're not alone, I have been using SeaMonkey since the day Netscape

minute tracks of popular pieces; these are 30-60 minute symphonies and
concertos or even 2 hour operas.

I don't think that's a function of Windows Media Player, it's how you 
have your browser configured.  Mine opens it in a separate process.  I 
think if you have Preferences-Helper Applications for the media type 
set to use the Windows Media Player Firefox Plugin it plays within the 
page.  But if you have it set to Use Windows Media Player like I do it 
opens WMP in a separate process. Of course the down side of that is 
you have to close the WMP window when it is finished because it is in 
its own process and doesn't close automatically when the media finishes.

I was able to install it using the above link and it works for Firefox
but not for SM 2.91. I'll have to read the above instructions and see
if I can find a clue of why it won't work.


For SeaMonkey you have to manually copy the plugin to SeaMonkeys 
plugin directory and restart SeaMonkey, did you do that?  The 
Installing the New Plugin section of the instruction link tells you 
where to find it and where to put it.


SeaMonkey 1.x, SeaMonkey 2, Minefield, or in a custom Firefox 
installation, you will need to copy the np-mswmp.dll file to your 
browser's plugins folder. [6] For example, for SeaMonkey 2, copy 
np-mswmp.dll to the C:\Program Files\SeaMonkey\plugins folder or, 
on 64-bit Windows, to the C:\Program Files (x86)\SeaMonkey\plugins 
folder.


See the link for where to find the file.

 All Firefox users who have installed the Java plugin, JRE versions

This thread, and the bug report stated that: 1) the bug is linux only
(Windows SM 2.9.1 versions + Java 7_4: WinXP  Win7  all work fine.,
and 2) Platform: x86 Linux. But thanks for checking anyway :-)



Sorry I missed where you said that Windows worked in comment 1.  I

And it is a non issue if you let it do

But as I have SM set-up to check each week, and, before that weekly

And doing it like Microsoft and including
cumulative updates is not the answer. That's part of the reason
Microsoft SPs are huge. You complain about a 23 Meg SeaMonkey download,
what do you say about a 400 Meg Microsoft download?


As I've update Win7 each second Tuesday of the Month (or
there-abouts), I've never had a 400MB MS d/l, but, then again, I've
never d/l'ed a Win7 SP! Should I have??


With a full package
being only 23 Meg. you would be further ahead taking the updates when
the come out and in the rare case where a update had server problems
downloading the previous full package and backing off the update.

But if you don't want to install the updates as they come out and don't
want to download the full package you can still download the partials
and install them manually in order. You can find the instructions at
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Software_Update:Manually_Installing_a_MAR_file

In your case (using Windows en-us updates as an example) going from 2.8
to 2.9.1 you could have downloaded
ftp://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/seamonkey/releases/2.9/update/win32/en-US/seamonkey-2.8-2.9.partial.mar

and installed it (5910 KB) and then downloaded
ftp://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/seamonkey/releases/2.9.1/update/win32/en-US/seamonkey-2.9-2.9.1.partial.mar

As I've yet to do the update for my Win7 version, I thank you for this
information, as it means I'll be able to update the Win7 SM with-out
d/l'ing the full 20-odd MB.

(Bugger, I've just noticed they are the WIN32 versions..will have
to go looking for the WOW64 equivalents!!)



I think that is the WOW64 version.  WOW64 is the subsystem that runs 
32 bit applications on 64 Bit Windows.  I don't think there is an 
official 64 bit version of SeaMonkey yet so unless you are running a 
contributed build (which I don't think has update capability) you are 
running the WIN32 version.


As to Windows updates that depends on when you got it.  There is a SP1 
and it was a big download. Windows 7 SP1 x64-based (64-bit): 1050 MB. 
 I use Windows auto update on my Win7 and XP and have seen huge 
downloads.  The Dot-Net Framework updates all pushed 100 MB and when 
they come in with others it all add up to a pretty big download and 
all the XP and Vista SP's were huge.  My SUSE Linux system seems to be 
downloading updates all the time and I don't even try to figure out 
how much it downloads.  And I keep SeaMonkey updated on 5 systems so 
I'm glad I'm not on dial-up anymore.

Well, I'm happy for you downloading the entire file each and ever

Yes, I was on a system where I paid for each and every byte

DownThemAll has a built in accelerator which implies that the download

No download accelerator doesn't imply that the download happens though

You can install an extension that will add that functionality. It is

Alternatively, Flakey, if you are comfortable working in
about:config,
search for the property mail.accountmanager.accounts, change the
order
of the accounts listed under the value, re-start SM and away you go.


Hmmm . . . How do I do that? Just change the numbers on the
accounts, or
physically rearrange them? I.e., is the name Account fixed to the
account, or is the number?

Thanks in advance!


Larry, the sequence the accounts are in now is determined by the
order of the Accountx sequence now in the
mail.accountmanager.accounts pref.

On my Mail  Newsgroups screen, my accounts, in order, are Mail,
Local Folder, Albury News server, Mozilla News server, UseNet
Account1, UseNet Account2.

In Prefs, the mail.accountmanager.accounts Value lists the accounts
as account1, account6, account4, account7, account8, account12.

So, Mail is account1, Local Folder is account6, Albury News is
account4, Mozilla is account7, UseNet Account1 is Account 8 and
UseNet Account2 is actually account12. The missing accountx numbers
are for accounts that I did have, e.g. secnews.netscape.com, but
which I no longer have.

And, as you can see, I've changed the sequence of the accounts such
as account6 (Local Folders) appears before account4 (Albury News).

So, if you change the order of the accountx's in the
mail.accountmanager.accounts pref and then re-start SM, the order of
the accounts in the Mail  Newsgroups page will change.

To change the order, double click on the value and cut-and-paste,
remembering to look after the comma's.

install in SeaMonkey. I know you said that add remove programs shows
that Java version 6.31 is installed, but what does SeaMonkey show?
Tools/Add-ons Manager/Plugins - I have two Java plugins installed, Java
Deployment Toolkit 6.0.310.5 and Java(TM) Platform SE 6 U31 6.0.310.5
and I am having no problems. Without the URL that is giving the problem
nobody else can see if it gives them problems too.


SM did not show Java installed, even though add/remove programs did.

The URL is

http://rldtowercam.viewnetcam.com:5/CgiStart?page=SingleLanguage=0

It's not offering to install a plugin now that I've reinstalled ver
31, and my add-on manager now shows the plugins you have, and
add/remove still shows ver 31 installed (the Java installer did say
java was already installed, but would remove and reinstall if I
clicked continue, which I did).

The real puzzle is the SM offer to install an older version, and then
having that attempt fail. Perhaps the situation could be duplicated by
disabling or removing Java from a test computer.


I don't know, it appears that something didn't go right with your 
original java installation and the SeaMonkey plugins weren't 
installed.  Who knows what kind of confusion that could have caused. 
Hopefully everything is working after reinstalling Java now that the 
plugins showing in SeaMonkey.  FWIW that page works fine for me.
