Am changing computers and cannot find my password or user name to transfer thunderbird

I want to transfer thunderbird to my new computer but cannot find my password or user name .Is it also possible to store ,or take with me e mails I have saved please ...My address book will that come over with thunderbird ? thank you for any help .John

Presumably that will leave you with both the old and new computers working.
Not sure which password you refer to is this for your email/webmail account, or a computer login password or something else?
You should not need any password just to open Thunderbird.
Be aware Thunderbird may only store minimal details of your emails but yes you will be able to transfer details and contacts. See

  • HT1660 can i retrieve my itunes library? I have changed computers and cannot find my downloads

    I bought lots of records from itunes back in 2009 but now cannot retrieve them from the itunes library. Are they now lost and forgotten or can I find them somehow?

    Did the backup of the old computer die as well?
    Many times when user's state "my computer has died" this is simply not true... the drive may still be very usable and therefore able to access the data on the drive.

    Open iTunes, go to Store, Sign in to the Store, Authorize This Computer.  You should then be able to access the music.

  • Forgot password and cannot find file named "Multi-User Prefs" to trash

    hi- i have a Power Mac G4 with Mac OS 9.0.4. I forgot my password. I tried to boot the iMac with PowerMac G4 Software Restore CD.
    In System Folder (on the hard drive), I could locate Preferences folder but i could not find the file named "Multi-User Prefs"
    Please suggest what I can do to reset my password.

    "I tried to boot the iMac with PowerMac G4 Software Restore CD."
    You need to boot from the System "Install" CD(hold down c key after you restart).
    Go to the hard drive click on System Folder then click preferences then trash Multiple Users Preference!

    Our Apple ID is ok and functioning.  However, I just came on as the IT for the group and cannot find how to change the name.

    Assuming you mean the personal name associated with the account, as opposed to the login (which you can change if it's not an @icloud.com. @me.com or @mac.com address) you can change this at http://appleid.appla.com . Click on 'Manage your account' and then on 'Edit' next to 'Your name' and the name currently associated with the ID.

    Downloaded a trial version of the "Living Earth Desktop" screensaver and cannot get rid of it. I deleted the download and cannot find it anywhere else on my mac. I will change the desktop image and the living earth image will pop back up minutes later. Does anyone know how I can make this image stop taking over my desktop? Thanks!

    This is the website.

    IF you know the exact file name of the download, you can search for it in the spotlight.
    (This icon) in the upper right corner.
    If you don't know the exact file name, you may have to redownload it so you can see it.
    I would also try doing a reboot after you change your desktop background to what you want.

  • On my windows Itunes I changed computers and ended up with two of every song. How do I delete the duplicates without doing it one at a time?

    I have duplicates of all the songs on my windows 7 computer.  I changed computers and ended up with duplicates of all of my songs. How can I delete them all without having to do it one at a time? thanks!

    Apple's official advice is here... HT2905 - How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library. It is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls.
    Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created.  If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
    Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.
    (If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed)

  • FB01 - Need to update fields and cannot find solution

    I have a need to update VERTN, KUNNR, WERKS, and PPRCT when posting an invoice with FB01.  The only field I can find a way to change is PPRCT (through substitution).  I have looked at all the user exits, BADI's, BAPI's, and BTE's and cannot find a solution.  Nothing I can find has these fields available to change. 
    I thought BTE 1020 was my solutution, but it seems you can't change any data with it - which I can't figure out the point of it then.  Right after the call to the BTE, it sets the BSEG internal table back to the way it was before the call.
    Anyone have any suggestions?

    Hi,
    You are corrent that the fields you want to substitute are not available in <b>BSEG_SUBST</b>.
    To get these fields you will have to maintain <b>table GB01 and GB01C</b>. This is where you define which field you can substitute. The fields you want are define as non substitutable in table GB01 ( BEXCLUDE = 'X' ).
    I know that you can substitute custom fields by adding entry in these table but i do not know if it is advisable to change the entry in table to make the field substitutable. I checked OSS not but could not find any for the fields you have specified.
    You might want to check for OSS note by yourself and if you could not find any, write to SAP and ask if you can change the entry in GB01 and GB01C.
    Let me know if you have any question.
    Regards,
    RS

  • I Have iTunes since 2008. I have changed computers and I know have old libraries but iTunes do not locate a lot of songs when I try to play it. How can I correct this situation?

    When iTunes say that try to find the file you want iTunes to play in your iTunes > Media folder.  If iTunes offers to find others, let it. If it does not find them all you will have to find them yourself or re-add the files from your drive to iTunes (use Automatically Add to iTunes folder).

  • HT203167 lost some music and cannot find it on my computer.  tried to repurchase from itunes store and won't let me stating that it was previously purchased, yet doesn't give an option to redownload. help anyone?

    lost some music and cannot find it on my computer.  tried to repurchase from itunes store and won't let me stating that it was previously purchased, yet doesn't give an option to redownload. help anyone?

    AlexCarey, I've been having issues purchasing recently and place a number of calls to the support team. On Oct. 5th, and on my own decision, I went into my itunes profile and re-entered my credit card expiration date and security code. (Notice, it is not displayed for safety measures.) Today, I received an email from Apple support verifying if I made changes made to my account. For the heck of it, I logged back into itunes; click "Buy". It's working again after three days of failure. However, diagnosis still displays "Secure link to itunes store failed". Very confusing state of affairs, lately. See my post on "Itunes dilemma"

  • I recently changed computers and lost all my playlists from my itunes on my computer, i have them still on my phone. Is there a way i can get them back without making them all again?!

    If the books were purchased at the iBookStore, you will be able to redownload, like the apps. Some other sellers, like O'Reilly, also allow multiple downloads.
    If you have (or can install) iTunes on a computer (Mac preferable, not mandatory) and run it then plug the device in, does it show up? If the computer can detect it, you can and should do a complete backup onto local storage immediately. That can then be used to reconstruct the content of the device on a new or repaired replacement. If you enable encryption, even the passwords will get saved.

    About ~20 hours later, this ended up solving itself.
