I have used the easy transfer wizard to export/import data incl TB, do I now move all the Mbox folders between profiles to move the mail contents?

I installed TB on the win8.1 box and have run the easy transfer wizard to import my data. The support item showing how to mark up my TB data for inclusion in the easy transfer wizard was very useful for this, but it does not describe how to get TB to recognise the imported profile.
I can see two profiles in the folder: C:\Users\Andrew\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles
and one appears to contain my old data, the files in the other profile are very small by comparison.
My question is whether I should move (or copy) the mail folders (or all folders/files) from the imported profile to the new one, overwriting any files where relevant? Alternatively, is there a way to get TB to recognise and use the imported profile?
I did look at the profile manager but it does not recognise the imported profile.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
Andrew

I decided to do the following:
1. renamed the profile folder created after installation of Thunderbird, to a name like nnnnn.default.bak
2. renamed the imported profile folder to the recently created profile nnnnn.default.
3. Restarted TB.
All working fine. All my email for the three email addresses has been transferred from the old computer to the new.

Using the Mail content and Mail Attachment in the mapping

Hi,
I have a requirement in which I need to read a file from the mail server and I am using the sender mail adapter for this. I have to convert the attachment of the mail in to the payload. To do this I am using the payload swap bean and mail transform bean. Now the issue is I have to get the information from both attachment and the mail content and need to map it to the target message. Please let me know how to do this.
Thanks!
~Vaas

Not sure if there is a staright forward way to achieve this.
But I can think of a work around for your scenario.
>>To do this I am using the payload swap bean and mail transform bean.
Instead of doing it this way, try
1. Message Transform bean that will transform the payload(content of the mail) to XML.
2. PayloadSwapBean to switch Payload and Attachment.
3. Message Transform bean to transform the attachment to XML.
4. Custom adapter module to read the attachment, contnet and create your own desired XML.
Alternatively, step 4 could be replaced by a Java mapping doing the same operation.

How Many Mailboxes can you have using the Mail app?

I have 5 currently and can't seem to add any more. Is 5 the limit?

I know very little about gmail, but you might try the OS X Hints article, or the step-by-step guide at About.com.

Administrator.000 appeared after XP to Win7 upgrade using Easy Transfer Wizard

I used the Windows Easy Transfer method to capture my XP documents and settings in a saved file before upgrading to Windows 7 (32bit). After a clean install I then ran Windows Easy Transfer to restore my documents and settings from the file created earlier. Everything worked fine but I did notice that in the C:\Users directory an extra Administrator.000 directory was created with the date and time matching the time when I ran Easy Transfer wizard. Is it safe to delete this extra one and leave the original Administrator directory?
Thanks!

I bought a new laptop and used Windows Easy Transfer cable and moved all files from one computer to another. I installed iTunes and found my iTunes music Library. However, when I plug in my iPod it says it is already synced with another iTunes Library.

I bought a new laptop and used Windows Easy Transfer cable and moved all files from one computer to another. I installed iTunes and found my iTunes music Library. However, when I plug in my iPod it says it is already synced with another iTunes Library.
I don't see anything in Help that shows when you already have transfered all the files over. Why would it want to erase and sync when I already have all the music folder copied over? I didn't have an issue when I had another technician copy from one laptop to another. Home sharing is also on but not being recognized.

I suspect you only migrated the media folder instead of the complete working library. Either review the transfer process and copy over the entire iTunes folder from your old profile's music folder or see Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

I have Windows 7, Microsoft Outlook and PSE 13. I have used the "Share photos as embedded images" feature frequently, but today when I went to use it, it wasn't there, only the option to send email with files attached. How do I get back the ability to send emails with photos embedded. I like adding the frames and backgrounds and I think it's easier for recipients to look at the photos. Thanks for any suggestions of things to try.

I had a similar problem in that my wife's iphone 5 could not send pics with imessage. Had to set the settings to default to SMS or whatever. After laboring many hours on the web I coincidentally was on the phone with the internet people to question my internet speed. They changed the router channel, which is something that I am capable of doing myself. After that, the pics go over imessage. My own Iphone didn't have the problem. We are both latest IOS 7.0.6.

Is my picture data (tags, star rating) transferred using Windows Easy Transfer

Hi,
I bought a new computer and want to make sure that the tags and star ratings from my pictures are transferred to my new computer when I use Photoshop Organzier. Will this be done simply by copying it using Windows Easy Transfer, or is there something special I must do?
Thank You:>

No. Use back-up and restore within Elements.

HT4314 I have a iPad and iPhone with the same Apple ID, but on Game Center I have used the same id for both devices and they are two different profiles and I was wondering how to have one of the accounts on both devices.

Hi Jamesdwills,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
If you are using the same Apple ID on both devices, the Game Center profile should be the same.
Check out this information from the iPad User Guide. Try signing out of the Game Center on both devices and then sign back in with the correct Apple ID:

I have used the same Apple ID on my children's iPads. Both iPads are now showing as the same. How do I get the missing account back?

I have used the same Apple ID on my children's iPads. Both iPads are now showing as the same. How do I get the missing account back?

You can clear the iPad and start again with the other account> Settings->General->Reset->Erase all Content & Settings
Or you can go to Settings->Itunes and App Stores->Apple ID->Sign Out,
And Then Sign in with the other account. You can then download the Apps with that account. Though you may block the other account for 90 days.
Your best bet is to set it up again using the orighinal account it had, so you can get their Apps back. without affecting your account.

I have used the "description" spot in iPhoto for in-depth additional information for photos of my ancestors. Now I am wanting to know if there is a way to print the photos along with the descriptions; either photo by photo, or maybe more than one per page

I have used the "description" spot in iPhoto for in-depth additional information for photos of my ancestors. Now I am wanting to know if there is a way to print the photos along with the descriptions; either photo by photo, or maybe more than one per page, or possibly in some sort of booklet format. Thank you very much.

You can make a Book and have a photo on one side and your text description on the other.

i have used the plugin updater to update most of my plugins but i have one that i do not wish to update. is there a way to stop getting the plugin manager to pop up every time i open up firefox? i updated all other plugins except adobe reader- which i have adobe acrobat and wish to use that instead but when inside firefox it always uses reader as default so i just chose not to install the update. can i disable the update manager?

That is stealing.

I can no longer receive mail using the mail app? I have to go online instead - why?

Hej some one,
I can no longer receive mail using the mail app? I have to go online instead - why & what can I do?

Check your smtp preferences in mail.app.
See if mail.app's Connection Doctor has any useful info. Does it's status indicate all is ok? When you use it's Show Detail are there any (useful) error messages?

I have lost sound on my iPad in apps unless I use headphones ,does anyone know how to get sound back without them .I have used the mute volume on the bar at bottom of screen and the slider volume control there only shows when headphones are plugged in !

I have lost sound on my iPad in apps unless I use headphones ,does anyone know how to get sound back without them .I have used the mute volume on the bar at bottom of screen and the slider volume control there only shows when headphones are plugged in !
I also tried resetting settings all to no avail ...I looked up some advice and watched utube video advice on how to fix without success..
The volume control button on side does not work ,I got the iPad last August and wonder if it is a fault that means I must return it for replacement from where it was purchased ?

The Retrospect you used way back when is no longer around. The company was sold and that company produced a new version of Retrospect - Retrospect 8.x
So, as you've been told, you would have to be running a Tiger system with an old version of Retrospect software (5.x or 6.x - you would need to know) assuming you can find the software.
As best I can remember you cannot extract files from a Retrospect backup except using the software since Retrospect did not normally make a file by file backup rather it created an archive of the files in the backup. I'm assuming that the EMC/Retrospect people have told you that old Retrospect backups are not accessible by Retrospect 8.x?
