Main email profile (account) not showing at top of folder pane, only local folders, unable to auto receive.

TB V-24.4.0, Win XP32, Transfered from OE to TB today on friends system getting ready to upgrade to Win 7 64. Original email account is from Verizon.net and was able to import all mail and address book setting correctly into TB. However, at top of TB's folder pane, his main account isn't listed, only local folders. When I sent a test email to his account, it did not receive so I tried to click on the "Get Mail" button above the folder pane without sucess. Next to the right of the "Get Mail" button is a drop down and when I open, I see "get all new messages at the top and his main account (complete email address) below. Now when I click on his email in that button, his main started to populate fine. Looks like the main profile (account) isn't the default and after 3 hours of reading tips, support, help files, etc..at my wits end trying to get it setup correctly so I can back it up with Mozbackup and restore on new system. I would like to include a screen shot but not finding an option to do so at this time, another issue? Thanks in advance.

given a single pop account import from outlook express, the "Local folder" will be the folders for the account. This is controlled from Tools menu Alt+T) > account settings > Server settings > advanced button.
This is also where the option to "include this server when getting mail" is hidden. Turn it on if you can.
Using the local folder is actually less confusing as there is only one set of inbox sent etc. and is all most people need even with multiple pop accounts all using the same global inbox.
The use on IMAP requires a separate account in the list as content is synchronised folder by folder.

G-Mail Account Not showing up in Messaging Folder

On my Droid X, that I can't say enough about, I noticed that my G-mail Account is not showing up in the Messaging folder. I have tried the "manage account" option and it shows the account, but on the main messaging screen, it is only showing my comcast, facebook, twitter and texting folders. Subsequently, I'm not receiving my g-mail unless I use the browser and log into the gmail account that way... Any thoughts or suggestions?

My purchased music not showing in the purchased folder

I have purchased muisc and movies and they are not showing in my purchased folder, have only 8 songs showing as purchased. However, the purchased items are in my music library.
Thanks
Jonathan

Did you recently hide your purchases?
If you did, try unhiding your purchases, as e4joker suggests here -> Re: Unable to see purchased music in purchased folder
To unhide your purchases
    Open iTunes on your Mac or PC.
    If you're not already signed in, choose Store > Sign in.
    Choose Store > View My Account. (You may be asked to enter your password again).
    On your Account Information summary, scroll down to the "iTunes in the Cloud" section and click Manage.
    Choose a content type by clicking Music, TV shows, Apps, or Books from the top.
    Click the Unhide button next to the item you would like to restore.
Note: If the item you are unhiding is not already downloaded on your computer locally, it will begin downloading automatically.

Mail accounts not showing after restoring a profile backup

Followed the instructions here https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profiles-tb#w_restoring-a-profile-backup for manually "Restoring to a different location".
Re-stated TB and only "local Folders" show in the home tab. The emails for my previous main account are there minus what was on the "inbox" for that account.
The rest of the email accounts were created in the account settings but are not showing in the home tab (no emails).
When I point to the server settings they message storage is set to this folder and I get this message.
The Local Directory path "C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\xxxxxx.default\Mail\pop.1and1-2.com" is not suitable for message storage. Please choose another directory.
Could you please provide some help?

Normally the instructions work fine, but in your case there seems to be a glich. I've heard that some issue can occur if the Profile has been moved from one pc to another and previous pc directory used :
C:\\'''Documents and Settings'''\\ and the root directory gets confused.
This is located in the prefs.js file, which you copied over when you followed the instructions.
It can be fiddly and time consuming trying to correct this file.
So I'm going to suggest that you do not use the old prefs.js file.
The best way forward would be to delete the Profile and start again but this time using a fresh new prefs.js file.
Using Profile Manager
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Manager
create new Profile and then click on 'start thunderbird'
Manually create all the mail accounts - email addresses, which you had backed up, but do not download anything.
File > New > existing mail account
or
menu icon > New Messages > exisitng mail account
enter name, full email address and password for the mail account,
click on 'Remember Password'
Click on 'continue' button.
When all mail accounts have been created in the new Profile, check the Account Settings are exactly as you require.
Tools > Account Settings > Server Settings
or
Menu icon > Options > Account Settings > Server Settings
check all preferences are as you require
also check other settings eg: Copies & Folders, Junk Settings etc.
when all is ok click on OK to save any changes.
Then access the Profile folder as follows.
make sure hidden folders are visible:
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Show_hidden_files_and_folders
In Thunderbird
* Help > Troubleshooting Information
* click on 'show folder ' button
* A new window opens.
'''Close Thunderbird now - this is important.'''
The Profile folder will show a 'Mail' folder amongst other files and folders.
scroll down to see:
abook.mab and history.mab files.
These are your Personal Address Book and Collected Addresses. The new files will be empty.
Locate your backup profile and copy paste the abook.mab and history.mab files into the new Profile overwriting the new blank files of same name.
Additional info:
You may have a few more files that you may wish to copy/paste into this profile name overwriting files of same name. Not totally essential, but will save time setting these preferences up again.
* localstore.rdf - Toolbar and window layout size/position settings.
* mailviews.dat - Defines your current message view
* mimeTypes.rdf - Action to perform when downloading certain types of files.
* training.dat - Custom training for Junk Mail Controls
In new Profile, click on 'Mail' folder
You should see your added mail account names and Local Folders.
click on one of the mail accounts.
They will have the basic default folders which of course are empty.
Locate backup Profile mail account for same email address.
you need to copy paste the ''contents'' of the backed up mail account name into the new empty mail account name.
Copy all the files and folders and paste into the new mail account folder overwriting the contents eg: Inbox. It may look similar to image below.
Do this for each mail account and Local Folders.
So you have replaced the new empty mail accounts files with all the backed up email files.
Restart Thunderbird.
Please report back on results.

I am trying to read my iMessages from my iPhone 4S on my iPad 2, but the messages do not show up on my iPad 2. I made sure that the receiving email address is the same on both devices and both are signed into my single Apple account.

I am trying to read my iMessages from my iPhone 4S on my iPad 2, but the messages do not show up on my iPad 2. I made sure that the receiving email address is the same on both devices and both are signed into my single Apple account.

Is it possible that the person who sent the message to your phone sent it to your phone # instead? Try sending a message to your phone via the email address and see if it shows up on the iPad.

TS3276 After updating software yesterday, noticed that sent emails are not showing up in Sent Folder for one of my accounts.

After updating software yesterday, noticed that sent emails are not showing up in Sent Folder?

Are you storing Drafts, Sent, Trash and Junk messages on the server via your .Mac account with Mail?
If so, do you access your .Mac account with an email client on another computer or regularly access your account via webmail on another computer?
If not, any other reason you need to store Drafts and Sent messages on the server?
While composing a message with Mail, it is temporarily saved in the account's Drafts mailbox so sounds like something went wrong with the process between finishing and sending the message with Drafts and Sent being stored on the server.
If you don't have any need for this, better to store Drafts and Sent messages locally on the hard drive with Mail.

Email images are not showing in my new iPad.

email images are not showing in my new iPad. This was not a problem initially, but just started. I use yahoo mail. Any thoughts?

This seems to be a problem with Yahoo! that started within the past few days. I am assuming that you are accessing your Yahoo! Mail through Safari. Until a fix is issued, you have two options -- (1) use the Mail app included in iOS, logging in with your Yahoo! account information or (2) when in Yahoo! Mail in Safari, click on your profile name/pic in the bottom left corner, choose Options, and then choose the last option, which displays your e-mail using the older classic version of Yahoo! Mail. It's not as pretty or easy to manuever around, but at least it shows the images in your e-mails, which is the most important thing. Both Apple and Yahoo! have been contacted about this issue, so hopefully a fix will be released soon.

CUSTOM ICC PROFILES DO NOT SHOW UP IN PSCS 6 MAC OS 10.8.4 BUT ARE OK IN CS5

The only icc profiles that show up in CS 6 Mac OS 10.8.4 are the ones that are installed from the printer driver ( Epson 9900 ) Any other single or custom profiles do not show up when placed Library/Colorsync/Profiles
All profiles show up in CS 5, There has been a lot of discussion of this on many forums with no solution. I have also tried installing the profiles in the contents folder of the Epson printer in the main library folder with no luck. Please advise

Mac OS 10.8.4 is still in beta. You need to be reporting this to Apple.
What happens if you move these profiles to the Adobe/Profiles folder, or the users/Library/Colorsync/Profiles folder?
There has been a lot of discussion of this on many forums with no solution.
What forums? A google search turns up nothing but this thread.
I have not seen this problem with the released versions of 10.8.

Spotify name and profile picture not showing publicly

I have linked my Facebook account to a new Spotify account that I made after my old one was compromised. I have since recovered my compromised account via support. My facebook account was disconnected by whoever hijacked the account. I signed up for premium on this new account and intend to continue using it. After syncing with facebook on this new account and adding contacts, my profile picture and name show correctly on the desktop client and phone but my public profile does not show either my name or picture. Is there anything I can do to remedy this problem or do I have to wait for the servers to update? Thanks. Edit: old spotify username was John007H the new one is John007H2 (this account).

Antohny,
Also be patient. It can take several days, before the uploaded image is approved, and shows. My two red wine glasses image took about 7-10 days, and this one about 5.
IIRC, in my profile, I had "(pending)" showing during that time.
Good luck,
Hunt

Some email images do not show while using the icloud web app. I can see the images on my IOS devices and in gmail but I only see a small gray box in the icloud web mail app. Load HTML images is checked in preferences.

I've seen the opposite issue. My wife recieved an email with jpg attachments. She couldn't see or print them on her iPhone 4S but they showed up fine in iCloud or in the mail app. I had her forward the email to herself and then they showed up. I assume there is an issue with how Apple is processing the attachments and resending causes them to get reformatted in a way that makes them easier to handle.
So yeah. Seems like some bugs. Hope Apple fixes them soon.

Camera Calibration Profiles do not show in Develop Module LR5 / Windows 7

I have selected three specific camera profiles (Nikon D300, Nikon D700 and Canon G12) and placed them into:
c:\Users\{me}\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles\{Nikon D800}
I restarted Lightroom 5 and viewed a RAW photo (not jpg or tif).
But my Nikon D800 or the other two camera profiles do not show up in the Develop Module Camera Calibration drop down menu, nor in the Presets drop down in the Navigator panel.
What am I doing wrong?

It is possible to have third party software providers create profiles for your camera that simulate other camera profiles. I have had that done for my Olympus E520 and E300 cameras so that I have dozens of option available.
Yes (to a degree). You can build your own custom DNG camera profiles, that's a good first start. Then you could edit them using the free DNG Profile Editor from Adobe. I'd start with custom profiles for each camera and see if that produces an acceptable match among them.
This may help too:

Address Book Accounts not showing sync options

Address Book > Accounts not showing sync options. - just a blank panel to right of "On My Mac". Cause could possibly be that I imported current contact list from vcf export of AB. Anyone any toughts on how can I retrieve the syncing options?

Don't take what I have to say as fact, because I don't use a Mac and could be mistaken. I remember reading last night something about people taking and checking the box on the Summary page of iTunes to replace the info on the iPhone with the computer. Once that was done, it seemed to correct this issue and showed the address groups after that.
It might be worth the experiment, however I would make sure I had a backup of the phone before I tried it. I know it was only the last day or show that I read it, so if you want to search the forum before you try it, be my guest. I don't want to ruin anything for you, but I just remember reading that someone did that and it fixed it.
Hope this helps.

How come my device is not showing up in the summary pane?

I am trying to restore my device because I have a black screen. I signed into my account but my device is not showing up in the summary pane. Why not?

one of the biggest things that i see with this issue is that the usb connector is not pushed in all of the way
-look at the connector and see if there is any gap between the white shell of the connector and the device
-if so that push it in until there is no gap between the ipod and you hear another click
let me know if that doesn't work because there could be other things involved with the cause of this issue
but i do hope this helps:)

I transferred itunes library from old PC to new PC. The content all shows when I launch iTunes on the new PC now. The previous content does not show in iTunes but folder still looks like it is on hard drive on new PC. Suggestions on how to properly merge?

Before you connect any device to a new library go to the Devices tab of the the preferences panel via Edit > Preferences (Windows) or iTunes > Preferences (Mac) and ensure the box next to Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically is ticked. You can now safely connect the device to your computer without the danger of media being automatically deleted or overwritten.
To get all your content off your connect your iPad to your new computer.
Then use a 3rd party piece of software to transfer your content
I have found Senuti useful but there are others listed in the article I linked to in a previous post.
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
That will let you transfer your non purchased content
For Purchased content log in to iTunes on the new computer
In Itunes Store click on Purchased under the Quick Links section on the right.
Download any music by clicking on the cloud button
