I have downloaded Thunderbird Setup 31.3.0 but it will not run!

My Thunderbird on this machine stopped working properly yesterday. It refused to download e-mails from my account - but it was seeing the correct number of e-mails on the mail server. It would not accept updates (it was at version 24.6 but would not accept the update to 31.3.0). In desperation I deleted the programme and returned to basics, downloading a 'new' version of 31.3 from the Thunderbird web pages. However, having completed the download, the updater refused to run.
Meanwhile, Thunderbird on my other computer updated itself to 31.3 quite happily - both machines run Windows 8 (64 bit). However, my master e-mail files and records are on this machine so I am keen to ensure a working Thunderbird here. So far as I can see both machines have the same set up, the same anti-virus protection (Norton 360) the only obvious difference is that this machine has a Core i5 processor whereas the laptop is a Core i3.
What do I have to do to get the updater to run?

Thanks - all seems to be working OK! If not, I'll be back!

  • I have downloaded, extracted and installed Elements 12 but it will not open nor can I find the Adobe file in the file where I installed it to..  When I've tried to download and install again

    I have downloaded, extracted and installed Elements 12 but it will not open nor can I find the Adobe file in the file where I installed it to..  When I've tried to download and install again it says that the "Object Already Exists."  It may exists, but it is not visible in the file or in my list of programs on the Startup Menu.

    You should not have to uninstall Premiere Elements 12/12.1 in order to install and run Premiere Elements 13 on the same computer unless your computer is overloaded and the computer resources are compromised. Just use one program at a time.
    Can you still use 12/12.1 on this same computer that will not let you use 13?
    What specific Window operating system are you using?
    Let us go through the usual drill...
    1. Does the problem exist with and without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
    2. Are you using a pen and tablet device instead of a mouse?
    3. Did you install the program with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
    4. Disable the SLCache Folder found in Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit
    Local Disk C
    Program Files (x86)
    Common Files
    Adobe
    and in the Adobe Folder should be the SL Cache Folder that you delete or disable by renaming the Folder
    from SLCache to SLCacheOLD.
    5. Are you running the program as Administrator and is the latest version of QuickTime installed on the same
    computer as Premiere Elements 13?
    Let us start here and then decide what next.
    Thank you.

    I have downloaded a French cd on iTunes. It is both speaking and music.  It has downloaded fine in iTunes but it will not transfer to either my iPhone or iPad.  Could someone advise please?

    Or 80 years in router years.
    Check the site of the manufacturer and see if there is an update for your router and install it. If there isn't one try restarting your router by pulling the plug on it and plugging it back in.

  • I have a Mac and I have downloaded the most recent Adobe Acrobat, but files will not open.  Any suggestions?

    I have a Mac and downloaded the most recent Adobe Acrobat version, in order to open PDF's on a site I use.  They changed something recently and advised everyone to get up to date, which I did, but to no avail.  I keep getting a "waiting" message. I have used the Safari "develop" menu to simulate Internet Explorer, but with no luck.
    Any suggestions?

    Please wait...

    Hi Kristialana,
    The only scenario where in Premier pro wont show is when you have a 32 bit OS. Min system requirement for Premier Pro is a 64 bit OS .

  • TS1424 i downloaded an album from i tunes, but it will not play back correctly,tracks stop half way through and skip to the next one. what can i do???

    I downloaded an album from i tunes, but it will not play back correctly,
    it starts a track and then stops randomly and jumps to the next track
    and then does the same thing ad ainfinitum! What to do??

    Other people have been having similar problems with songs over the last few days, I assume that there has been a problem with Apple's servers.
    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting those tracks from your iTunes library and redownload them via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading.
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if they re-download in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that album and use the 'Report a Problem' link.

  • I have photoshop elements 10 with all updates but it will not import raw files from my sony rx100

    Can anyone help. I have adobe elements 10 with all updates but it will not import .arw (raw) files from my sony rx100

    Sony RX2 is supported in ACR7.2 and higher whereas PSE10 can go as high as ACR6.3
    Thus you wont be able to open your raw files directly into ACR. You might want to download DNG convertor(version 7.2 or higher) and use it to convert your raw files to a different raw format (.dng) which is supported by all ACR versions.

  • Downloaded safari 6.0.4 but it will not run on 10.6.8 on

    I downloaded safair 6.0.4 to a macbook running 10.6.8 but Safari will not run the new verstion, only the 5.9.1??

    For 10.6.8 you need Safari 5.1.10.
    Ideally, you'd now install a system backup made before you got 6.0.4 on there... if that's not possible, download Safari 5.1.10 for Snow Leopard & use Pacifist to 'force' the install, then restart. Backup first, if you haven't already.

    Have you tried logging out of your CC desktop app, then logging back in again? Quit/Restart won't work, but logging out and back in should. See here: https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/sign-in-out-creative-cloud-desktop-app.html

    Installed Acrobat XI Standard on windows 8.1, see it in my download folder but it will not run?  Help?

    Also, once you successfully install, please backup the install file to a separate HD and/or CD. I agree that your comment is not clear. You say you installed it, but it is simply in the download folder. Did you run the install file that you downloaded? The download does not install the program, but the install is an extra step.
