How can I clear the stored auto-complete e-mail addresses in Thunderbird, without clearing everything?

In the auto-complete of e-mail addresses, old invalid addresses keep appearing in this list that are not in any address book (any more).
How can I delete one from the list, or perhaps all?
(Thunderbird v31, Dutch)

The only place that Thunderbird gets suggested addresses is from your address books. I have seen some not show up in the books because some key info was never stored when the contact was saved.
Sometimes you can start a new message and when the bad contact shows up select it. Create the message and save it to drafts. Then you can go to the Draft folder open the draft message by right clicking and select Open Message in Tab. Then click the star to the right of the contact and it will open the contact edit button. From there you can delete the contact.
This does not always work though.

  • How can I stop safari from auto completing url's on my iphone 4 and ipad2?

    How can I stop safari from auto completing url's on my iphone 4 and ipad2?  On both devices I have cleared history, I have gone into settings-safari-and cleared history and cleared cookies & data, tried turning my devices on and off and I also have private browsing turned on. Both devices are operating on iOS 5.  When I type in a url I don't want anything to show and auto complete.  Any suggestions?

    This indicates corrupt files.
    A restore should resolve.

    How can I see the stored files in cache? I need them!
    Thanks for helping me.

    The History menu lets you revisit the page where you can drag any page element from it.
    How would you sort through thousands (tens of thousands) of files found in a cache?

  • I was trying to get the iOS 8.2 on my iPhone 5 but then it stopped and my phone is now on recovery mode I have pictures I need and they did not all fit on iCloud  how can I use the phone again with ALL my pictures and videos without restoring it?

    Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
    Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
    If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
    Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes?  If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created.

    How can I copy the date and time in Mail header?
    I can copy everything else in the header for pasting in another application. 
    But not the date and time which is absolutely vital.
    It was ok in 10.6 

    I suppose you could copy it from the Raw Source. View>Message>Raw Source

  • How can I customize the folder - Background (i.e. transparent) of my 5s WITHOUT a jailbreak ?

    How can I customize the folder - Background (i.e. transparent) of my 5s WITHOUT a jailbreak ?

    You can't do any more than what is permitted in Settings regarding the backgrounds. If you would actually JB your phone for something so trivial, risking virus and worm attacks, violating your license agreement, voiding your warranty, risking bricking your phone or making it unstable and excluding any paid repair service from Apple I question your judgement.

  • How can I widen the vertical scroll bar width in Firefox and Thunderbird?

    How can I widen the vertical scroll bar width in Firefox and Thunderbird?

    Hello,
    Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
    You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
    Then perform these steps:
    *Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
    *In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
    *In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
    *Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
    Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
    * [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
    * [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • How can I replace the Portal with completely new Flash website?

    Can I replace the Portal with completely new Flash website? My customer do not want the JSP UI. Instead, he wants a completely new designed Flash site. Is it possible to do it? How can I deploy a new portal to cover the current one?

    If you have a look at some of the code examples which do the equivalent of site maps, you could in theory replace the whole portal desktop with some sort of Flash framework which reads the user's role structure at run time.
    I think it is useful to remember that the SAP portal is primarily a business application launchpad. It does that very well. Trying to make it into a Flash launchpad will be challenging.

  • How can I disable the Spam filter on Apple Mail?

    Hi All!
    About a year ago I installed Virus Barrier X6 with Personal Antispam on my 27 inch iMac. The Virus software seems great and I have no issues. The Antispam I have never installed and i have continued with the Junk options, however I have an issue with what I think is the Intego version (you may correct me) which is driving me mad!
    On the left hand column of my Apple mail software is a folder headed 'ON MY MAC', called Spam. eBay messages, work messages, banking etc etc are going straight into there and I cannot seem to alter any settings.
    The email is highlighted in purple and when I try right clicking, it offers only the standard options as with any other email. There are no spam options at the top of the screen, there is nothing on the Launchpad relating to it and when I search the mac (top right), there are absolutely no hits whatsoever entitled Spam or similar?
    Since my recent update to M/Lion, the Intego Personal Antispam icon on Launchpad has disappeared by the way - so I cannot be sure that this is an Intego. Is it possibly an Apple generated icon?
    I would be happy to keep it there if I could control it. If not, I just need rid of the thing. I cannot teach the software to learn or unlearn - so i am completely at its mercy. Your help would be very much appreciated.
    Thank you in anticipation,  John.

    It is caused by a rule within Apple Mail.  Check Preference > Rules.
    If Personal Antispam has disappeared, it's because the product was discountinued.  See this link for that info plus some instructions on how to deal with what you are seeing:  https://support.intego.com/entries/21639926-Personal-Antispam-Discontinued
    Once Personal Antispam has been removed, you can just remove the folder manually (right click, remove).
