The cursor will jump arbitrarily to random positions in your mail because of the malformed, broken and excessive HTML-code that TB has created. TB will drive you totally crazy – after a while of extensive editing, you will even not be able to direct the cursor using the cursor keys.
When writing rather long mails, the editing process includes many steps of deleting, copying, moving and inserting headings, texts, links, lists, and repeatedly changing text formatting, etc.ĭoing this with HTML-Mails in Thunderbird is a nightmare – frankly, it is impossible due to the broken HTML-editor of TB. The new features are all welcome, but there is a horrible and very painful Thunderbird bug that should already have be fixed since a long time and it is not. I believe that much older versions of Firefox applications (for example, Firefox 1.x series) did not have this default behavior and I believe one would select a profile to use initially and have the option to set a profile to use as default. This can be trouble when different Firefox-based applications use the same profiles one application may make profile changes (automatically or when using or setting various options or features) that are incompatible with the other profile. This is done without any warning or notice to the user whatsoever. One of the problems that one runs into when working with and running newer Firefox-based applications (I think about as of about Firefox 3.x), is that the applications use and set by default the preexisting described (in an INI file in profiles directory) default profile and profile data it finds in the App Data or Application Data directories (“%AppData%”) the it uses to store and access profile data (which is oftentimes the same directory by default for many Firefox applications of the same type). The email client will restart automatically, and all data that has been imported should be displayed.
Select Continue once you have made a selection.Close the stable Thunderbird window before you proceed. The profile name of the activate profile is identical to the folder name. Tip: if you have multiple profiles and don't know which one to pick, open the stable version of Thunderbird, press the Alt-Key to display the menu, select Help > More Troubleshooting Information, and activate the "open folder" button next to Profile Folder.You are asked to pick an existing Thunderbird profile that Thunderbird's import tool detected, browse for a profile, or pick a profile that is zipped.On the import screen, make sure that "Import from another Thunderbird installation" is selected, and activate the continue button.Activate the Alt-key to display the menu bar in the Thunderbird Beta interface.Thunderbird 102 includes improved import options, which makes it easy to import data from the stable version to the beta version. Make sure to uncheck the "make Thunderbird the default email client" option during setup. The email client will create a beta profile for the new version of Thunderbird, which means that data is not imported by default from the stable profile. Thunderbird Beta will be installed in a separate directory. Just activate the browse button and pick a different target folder for the installation. Select the custom installation option during setup to see the destination folder and get an option to modify it.
#Mozilla thunderbird stable release mac#
The Windows version of the installer will use a different directory automatically - C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird Beta instead of C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird used by the stable edition - and Linux and Mac users need to select a different folder for the installation to separate beta and stable versions.
#Mozilla thunderbird stable release install#
Most users may want to install the beta in a separate directory, especially if it is for testing. Install the Beta client in the same program directory, to replace the stable version.Install the Beta of Thunderbird in a separate directory to run it next to the stable version of Thunderbird.
