can't load new version
I had an older version of SeaMonkey installed and it told me that the folder was full that I had to delete some files and compact the folder which I did. However, after I did that it still kept saying the same thing. I thought I would just load the latest version of SeaMonkey which I did and that would correct the problem. So I did that and it asked me if I wanted to load that version now and I said yes. It never launched so I clicked on the desk icon and it wouldn't launched from that either. I went to the installation folder where it is installed it shows the icon (SeaMonkey.exe) with a date from the old installation and not a date of this installation. However there are other folders there that show today's date on them so I know there was an installation that took place. What is going on and how do I fix the problem? I also clicked on the icon (SeaMonkey.exe) in this folder and it didn't launched the program. This icon has the old installation date and not the new installation date. I tried to do a new installation and that didn't make any difference. PS I don't want to lose my existing emails or folders in correcting this problem if at all possible. Right now I have nothing in the way of SeaMonkey. Thanks ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
can't load new version
I don't know which older version you were using, but you have to COMPLETELY remove (uninstall) Version 1 of Seamonkey before installing Version 2. Versions 1 and 2 are incompatible. Even if you install them into different locations, there are some common file locations that will overlap and cause conflicts. I would even look in /Program Files/ and /Document and Settings/.../Application Data/ to be sure there aren't any residual configuration files left behind.

Peter Anton a écrit : Versions 1 and 2 are incompatible. Since when? I have both running and there is no problem whatsoever. The only potential "conflict" involves shortcuts, which will point to only one version, but that is easily cared for by creating new shortcuts and identifying them properly.
