Issues with Lightning on Thunderbird
Hi to everyone:
I have installed Thunderbird + Lightning:
[habarrera@itilmanpc ~]$ pacman -Qs thunderbird
local/lightning 0.9-3
An integrated calendar extension for Mozilla Thunderbird
local/thunderbird 2.0.0.23-1
Standalone Mail/News reader
local/thunderbird-i18n 2.0.0.23-1
Language packs for Thunderbird
but the Lightning doesn't work correctly, as you see in this image.
Someone else with the same problem ... anyone knows how to fix it?

Does anyone else have an issue with lightning bolt cables prematurely wearing out?
Between me, my wife and my sister in law I have bought 3 iPhone 5's and two of the cables is starting to wear out and the third one is worn out already. Is there a known issue with these cables that causes them to wear out prematurely? We bought two of the phones at launch and one in January. The one we bought in January is the one that wore out first and the launch ones are starting to go bad. We don't use the cables in a way that would cause them to wear faster than usual, for the most part the chargers sit by our night stand waiting to be used at night. My cable is the one that travels the most and is probably in the best condition. Is anyone else having this issue. Is this covered by the warranty?
The cables have either the host iPhone warranty or if purchased separately have a similar 12 months warranty
Take any faulty ones to Apple as long as damage is not user inflicted -
Hello, i currently have a server running davical which serves my users' calendars, currently users which wish to use thunderbird and do not want to use the web interface for calendaring (and wish to use lightning instead) have to add each collection seperately, rather than just provide the base URL of their calendar info.
So instead on most calendar clients putting this as the calendar address:
davical_base_url/caldav.php/username/
and be done with it, they have to go through the new calendar wizard for each calendar/todo collection, and cannot easily create collections from within the lightning user interface, instead have to resort to either the calendar interface or the davical server interface to create/manage collections. They also have to figure out what the names of the collections are under davical, automatically generated collections have a large UID name instead of the example collection names. I.e. they have to add a bunch of URL's like this individually as calendars:
davical_base_url/caldav.php/username/work/
davical_base_url/caldav.php/username/personal/
davical_base_url/caldav.php/username/worktodo/
davical_base_url/caldav.php/username/personaltodo/
davical_base_url/caldav.php/username/8302E5D8-3630-419E-BCFC-A6A144D292C8/
Are there any workarounds for this or is it in the works? other calendaring applications in the ecosystem haven't had an issue, Android is fine, iOS is fine, CalDavZAP is fine.
Hopefully someone can help,
Cheers.Hi all,
Just curious if anyone was able to solve this.
We experienced the same issue in both NW2004 (SP 20) and NW2004s (SP11).
Through trial and error, I disabled the portal integration flag, and the InputHelpV2 started working perfectly. Decided to search SDN this morning to see if anyone else had run across this, and this post was right on the same issue.
When the portal integration flag is enabled, and you perform the F4 dropdown...your browser seems to hang, and no popup window is displayed until you click in the browser window with your mouse. Once you click in the window, a tiny small InputHelpV2 window pops up, but it isn't functional (i.e. you can't highlight a row, and click on the check mark without getting an IE error (Access is denied)).
Best Regards,

Since I upgraded to Windows 8.1, Thunderbird freezes up and goes into "Not Responding" mode repeatedly every few minutes. My research indicates that it is a problem with compatibility with antivirus software, which obviously is needed with an e-mail program. How can this problem be solved, or is there an antivirus program that works seamlessly with Thunderbird and Windows 8.1?
Personally I use ESET NOD32. It is not cheap, but it is unobtrusive and appears to get the job done. Originally I was drawn there for their server protection, but since I no longer have windows servers that need is gone, but I see no reason to change.
Previously over the years I have used;
* Norton (Found it just to much embedded into the operating system. Something went wrong with it and Windows would not boot.
* Microsoft Security Essentials. Any application using large data files was unworkably slow. That included Thunderbird.
* AVG It was just clunky and I did not like it.
But the big issue these days is the products are not just anti virus, they are suites including firewalls, password managers/vaults and often spam and scam tools. It is usually these later tools that cause the most issues with the firewalls blocking anything but known versions of known software and spam tools that mess up because it has not had enough testing.
Basically your on your own in selecting a product5. I can not recommend one. But I seriously question the need for mail scanning. Especially after that remarkable admission by Symantec regarding Norton's not scanning mail.
Thunderbird does not run any scripts in mail, nor does it do anything with attachments before you open them and then it decodes them and places them in the temp folder where any good anti virus will scan them.
Personally I suggest anti virus rather than security suite software. Especially so if you use Chrome or Firefox browsers and they both use Google lists of known malware and phishing site to block inadvertent visits.
Windows has a firewall, your modem (over 90%) has one as well, those firewalls block ports, protocols and route traffic. Do you also need one that blocks programs?
Mozilla products have a password manager, do you need another? And so the list goes on. -
I have a lightning to usb cable which is 2m in length. Is there any known issues with trying to recharge an iPad 4 with this longer length? It seems to me it is taking much longer than a 1m cord to recharge.
Axel,
I'm afraid a new SSD won't be different from your bad USB stick. I had similar issues over USB with both a (no-brand) stick and TWO 64gb Kingston SSDNow's (running Kubuntu 12.04 with Kernel 3.11, ia_64): it all runs exceptionally well (wanna know how it feels like booting in 5 sec?) for a few days - then suddenly you find yourself facing that dreaded (initramfs) prompt. You ask yourself: why? Did I upgrade grub lately? Did I upgrade the Kernel? I don't recall so. Ok, let's fix this... insert favorite live cd, boot, fsck...what???? THOUSANDS of errors??? Hundreds of files and directories corrupted, and the system is unusable - Reinstall everything from scratch onto another drive.
Rinse and repeat: did this 3 times. Then I found this analysis:
http://lkcl.net/reports/ssd_analysis.html
I also suspect USB power interrupts more abruptly than SATA power, at shutdown - basically aggravating any power interruption damages. So now I'm going to:
- buy an Intel S3500!
- add commit=1 to my mount options in /etc/fstab
- edit shutdown procedure to add a 5-10 sec pause after unmounting drives.
Just my two cents.
Andrea

I am running Thunderbird 13.1.2 with Lightning 3.3.1 on a Windows 8.1 64 bit machine. Sometimes Thunderbird loads without Lightning, and I have to uninstall then reinstall Lightning to get it to run. Annoying but not critical. I see that Thunderbird just upgraded to 31.2.0. Will that fix this problem?

Lightning SD card reader issue with iOS7
Hello,
I have updated yesterday to iOS7 and been impressed to the smooth finish and the handling. Way better then previous versions.
Only downside are the accessories.
I have had no issues with my lighning SD card reader on previous iOS Versions but today I tried to connect it and it said that it is not supported by iPad.
It is an original lightning adapter bought at an Apple shop in Singapore and I cannot imagine that it is not supported by Apple anymore.
I have already rebooted the system a few times and got it working once for a short while until it broke down again with the same error message. I tried as well different SD cards as I thought is might have been an issue with the SD card.
Can anyone help me to fix that issue. Did I miss any setting or does anyone had the same issue?
Thank you for your assistance in advance.Hi
I am using lightning to SD card reader on my iPad mini with iOS 7.
Mine still works, and is surely genuine as I purchased from Apple retail store in Australia however, the reader is now extraordinarily slow to load image previews from the card. Where this was previously near instantaneous on iOS 6, the image previews take 1-2secs to load EACH which is completely ridiculous.
Very frustrating!!!
Apple please fix this. -
Slow to download email, slow to respond or open email, slow or unable to delete email, "A script on this page may be busy....error message when trying to delete an email.

McAfee has been causing problems again this week, so the remedy remains the same:

I have just upgraded to Windows 8 and my scyning and upgrading my phone with new apple software fails, Itunes looses connection with the device (phone), cant backup the phone or download new software, is this an issues with Windows
Hi, stig2013.
I would recommend the steps in the article below. See the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
If you are receiving an error message, find the exact error number that you recieved in the article below and process the steps.
iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if you manually disconnect the device during the restore process. You can resolve this issue by using USB troubleshooting, using a different Dock Connector or Lightning Connector to USB cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

7.1.2 Upgrade Issue with 2012 Chevrolet Tahoe
I upgraded my iPhone 5 to iOS 7.1.2 and now it will not work with my 2012 Tahoe via USB connection. Vehicle has Bose system with navigation. Previously the display worked with Spotify and any music apps on the phone. Phone has been rebooted mutiple times. Vehicle has also been turned off and on.
The strange thing is I also updated to 7.1.2 on my iPad Mini (non retina) and it connects and works as it should.Hey ylwdogsc,
I have an article that may help you address this issue and contains some helpful troubleshooting tips for this type of issue:
iOS: Troubleshooting car stereo connections
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3581
Troubleshooting tips
Beginning playback and controlling music
Some car stereos may require that playback be started or controlled from either the device or the stereo. Ensure that your car stereo is set to the proper input for your device. If it is and you cannot hear sound from your car speakers, try switching to your radio and then back to the proper input.
When using adapters to connect to your car stereo, you may notice variations in audio quality. When possible, use a shorter connection to the car stereo or try a different cable or adapter.
Disconnect and restart
If you are experiencing difficulties with the connection between your stereo and device, disconnect the device, and then power cycle the stereo and your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad. When the Home screen reappears, reconnect your device. If you cannot power cycle the stereo, turn the car off and then back on to allow the stereo to power off.
Isolate the issue
Try to reproduce the issue with an identical or similar accessory, if one is available, or test with a second device.
Example: If you hear static coming from the left audio channel, try connecting a different device or try connecting to a different stereo or accessory that connects over the same interface (30-pin or Lightning connector, Bluetooth, or headphone jack).
Restore iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If you have isolated an issue to the device, restore iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to its factory condition. You should rarely need to use this step with an accessory issue. If the issue affects only a third-party accessory, contact the accessory manufacturer before restoring your iOS device.
If the device does not update successfully, the issue may lie with the device and not with the accessory. See one of the following articles, depending on your device:
iPhone
iPad
iPod touch
Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

How to get Composite video output with Lightning devices?
I am replacing my last 30-pin device this week, and now all of our devices are Lightning cords. I have the Apple Composite AV cables in my vehicles, but Apple does not offer a Lightning version of them. From what I read on the 30-pin to Lightning adapters, they do power and audio only at best, and so don't support video. So, does anyone either know of a lightning AV adapter (with composite out), or a 30-to-8 pin adapter that will work with the above cables?
Thanks.I should add, I saw this (http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD824ZM/A/lightning-to-30-pin-adapter-02-m?fno de=3c) but reviews said they had issues with video. Does anyone know if that works with video?

OS X 10.10.1 Apple Mail reliability issue with Virgin Mail Servers
Apple Mail(8.1) reliability issue with Virgin Mail Servers on my iMac and Laptop Pro with the new Yosemite update! Spent 1.5hrs with the virgin team (thought we solved it by changing from Auto to one minute update) only to find on return I still have an issue with Mail! On the iMac the account opens and I see all the mail arriving. When I switch over and the back, days of recent mail have disappeared?
If I search for one I saw, It is found?
On the Laptop Pro, its similar, but it also has a problem remembering the outgoing port no matter how often I save it keeps going back to port 143 and this makes the send fail each time?
Will I have to move to another mail client or is their a fix coming?The last version of Mail for Tiger is v2.1.3 & there won't be any updates/upgrades.
You might try the freeware mail app Thunderbird. http://www.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/thunderbird/ It's newer than Mail for Tiger.

Issues with Japanese encoding using Mail
Since recently (I would say since I updated to 10.6), I have an issue with Japanese-encoded (ISO 2022-JP) mails on my English MacOS.
I have no problem to read, edit and write answers to any mails.
However with some ISO JP-2022-JP encoded messages (sent with Thunderbird 2.0.0.23 (Windows/20090812) btw) I have the following misbehaviour:
- if I send the message and let the encoding to "automatic", Mail sends the mail in UTF-8, which I do not want since most of Japanese computer do not understand UTF-8 by default (and the receiver gets panicked: "I can not read your mail T_T !")
- if I set the encoding to "ISO JP-2022-JP", I can not send nor save the message (see [1] at the end of the post). One should note that the error message when saving is really misleading (and yes my hard-drive has a lot of space left) and it should be fixed by Apple.
- if I dig a bit deeper, I can in effect find some characters in the original message which prevent Mail to send my mail. It however does not make any sense since:
- those char were in the original message properly encoded in ISO JP-2022-JP
- those char are always very common ones
The only solution I have found so far is to delete the original message in my mail, which is very frustrating...
A sample of such mail can be found at (I removed personal info. and the mail is about a drinking party):
- http://files.me.com/trouve.antoine/73w3w9
Help would be very appreciated.
Thank you very much.

[1] I get the following error messages:
-> try to save:
*This message can’t be saved to the Drafts mailbox.*
The message contains one or more attachments that
are too large to be saved in the Drafts mailbox. Try
deleting some attachments.
->try to send
*Invalid Text Encoding*
Some characters in your message could not be
converted to the “Japanese (ISO 2022-JP)” text
encoding. Choose a different encoding from the
“Text Encoding” menu.You can find out about the different versions here, for example:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO/IEC_2022
Thank you. I feel a bit stupid for not having looked in Wikipedia at first...
I sometime wonder how could such basic problem like charset not being solved after more than 40 years of computer science...
Here is a note that addresses that problem, but I don't think it works with 10.6. Might be worth a > try:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=121808&tstart=60
Thank for the link.
It seems to still work: new japanese mails are now sent in "ISO 2022-JP-2".
However, for messages with the header explicitly specifying "ISO 2022-JP" (which should be "ISO 2022-JP-2" on my mac) it has no influence.
The only ways I see to solve this issue would be:
i) to force "ISO 2022-JP-2" for all mails (a bit too extreme)
ii) to force the use of "ISO 2022-JP-2" instead of "ISO 2022-JP", but I do not think such precise configuration is possible
This mess appears to be due to Thunderbird which seems to mix "ISO 2022-JP-2" and "ISO 2022-JP", but I do not have any working Thunderbird to test now...
