[SOLVED]Thunderbird 12.0.1 loading BLANK but dated emails when no MAIL

Since updating to Thunderbird 12.0 -- and checking mail on my unix spool mail (e.g. /var/spool/mail/) -- I started getting a blank email with the date and time of 12/31/1969 7:00 pm --- if there is no mail.
(the message is blank, the subject is blank).
If there *IS* mail, the blank mail is not received.

If there *IS* mail, the blank mail is not received, otherwise I get a blank mail as mentioned above (when there is (*NO* mail).
I don't have a solution, but I would suggest you try a more descriptive title for your post. That way someone who has experienced your problem will see the issue rather than having to guess what it is. Like I did...

In my iPhoto library, only some images appear as thumbnails. The rest are blank but appear briefly when scrolling through or properly when double clicked. Any ideas?

In my iPhoto library, only some images appear as thumbnails. The rest are blank but appear briefly when scrolling through or properly when double clicked. Any ideas?

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

I'm having problems with 8.1 and Continuity / Handoff. It will work fine for web pages, etc. but in email when I try to do it between by iPhone 5s running 8.1 and my Macbook Pro running Yosemite I consistently get an error.

I'm having problems with 8.1 and Continuity / Handoff. It will work fine for web pages, etc. but in email when I try to do it between by iPhone 5s running 8.1 and my Macbook Pro running Yosemite I consistently get an error. "Failed to Continue Activity" Cocoa Error 4609. Handoff is working for phone calls and text messages. By email just crashes each time. It was also doing it under 8.0.2. My iPhone and iPad handle this fine. It's only the MacBook to the iPhone that fails, and only on email.

[Solved] GS60 - Windows 8 - Screen Goes Blank But Sound Continues

Typically about 1-2 seconds after the windows signup screen, the screen goes blank but you can still hear beeps of the pc loading. Then, only sometimes, white lines flash horizontally across the screen. My only choice at this point is to do a hard shutdown. The "MSI" logo pops up on reboot and process continues. Eventually (like after 5-10 mins. and several restarts/shutdowns from the windows login screen), the screen will work again. The screen will continue working for hours uninterrupted but may encounter the same issue. Then, it takes 5-10 mins to get the screen operational again!

Superdrive won't load blanks but plays DVD DL with lectures

The Superdrive in my MacBookPro3,1 will automatically mount and play a commercially recorded, double layer DVD (containing lectures).
But it will not mount a commercially-recorded stereo music CD or blank disks formatted as CD-R, CD-RW, or DVD-R. They will spin up to low rpm and the head can be heard searching, but then they spin down. That will repeat two time (perhaps three), then the drive spins down and rejects the disk automatically.
What would cause that and how can it be fixed?
FYI: The optical drive is a Matshita DVD-R UJ-857R with Firmware Revision HR01

Is it more fussy than the superdrive in my iMac or my MacBook? They don't have the same problems.
Good question. That's kinda the problem with "fussy": you never know when it has crossed into defective.
If I had a full height tray-loading external drive that was as fussy as my superdrive, I would call it defective. But when they squeeze everything into a third-height slot-loader, then the same behavior apparently becomes "fussy".
You might check your three superdrives with System Profiler and see if they are the same model and firmware. Somehow I doubt it.
Your mini's superdrive may well have crossed from fussy to defective. Let the store have a look at it.

Body of message either blank but text appears when Reply button hit

I have had this problem over the past 3 months or on a number of email messages that I have received, in each case from Windows users. When I open the message(s), either there is no text or only a part of the text appears. If I hit "Reply" to notify the sender of the lack of any text, the full text appears in the new Reply button.
Anything that I can do on my end to eliminate these occurrences?
Anybody else experiencing a similar situation?

If there are blank areas in the text of the original, do they correspond to where in the reply the missing text shows up, even if the text doesn't actually appear when selected? Is this highlighted area at some particular location in the messages, like at the end, or at one or more points in the middle of the text?
How are the Mail preferences for responding to messages (in the Composing tab) & displaying remote images (in the Viewing tab) set?
Does this happen only with a particular type of message, like HTML formatted ones, or just ones with attachments, or anything like that you can correlate with the problem?
If, instead of hitting the reply button, you change the message view (like by choosing the plain text or next alternative in View -> Message or text encoding in Message -> Text Encoding) does the missing text appear?
Any Mail plugin or other modifications on your system?

SQL*LOADER how to load blanks when data is null

I need to load data which contains null values into a table which cannot contains nulls. How can I tell SQL*LOADER to load blanks in a column when the input data is nulls?

After aborted rebuild in Mail: I can see and select the message in the center pane and when I click on it to display, I get "Loading" text, but nothing comes up

I have searched quite a bit to find a resolution to this problem, with no success. Any help would be appreciated.
I decided to rebuild my inboxes by following this advice: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11704. The rebuild took several hours and at 96% (4 minutes remaining apparently), the indexing froze (that is, after 8 hours, the message was still telling me "4 minutes left"). I forced quit mail, restored the previous Envelope files from the trash, and everything seemed fine.
However, since this failed attempt, I can see and select the message in the center pane and when I click on it to display, I get "Loading" text, but nothing comes up. All messages in my various inboxes have the reloading problem, EXCEPT messages that I downloaded since the aborted rebuild (in other words, there are about 40 messages that I downloaded since I tried the rebuild and I have no problem with these). The other 70,000 messages however wont load, even though I can see them in the centre pane and spotlight has no problem finding them and showing me their contents (when I hover the mouse over the message). When I click on the message in spotlight, mail opens and the loading problem re-occurs.
Since then, based on various suggestions I found for similar issues, I have used Disk Utility to verify and repair permissions and the drive. I used Onix to rebuild the Mail index (that only took about a minute - I am not sure how to interpret this when compared to the hours the rebuild took with Mail). No joy, I still have the same problem. I even restored one of my inboxes via Time Machine and the same issue with loading continues.
I am using ML 10.8.2. I have a combination of IMAP accounts (work) and POP accounts (personal). The issue of loading occurs irrespective of the account.
I am baffled and am now considering migrating to either Thunderbird or Postbox 3 to try and solve my problem. I prefer to stay with Mail. I should note also that I am using MailTags with Mail (http://www.indev.ca/MailTags.html), although I have not used any of the features. I upgraded to ML from SL about 2 weeks ago. It was very smooth and there appear to be no issues (not sure how helpful this is and probably not at all related to this issue).
Any suggestions much appreciated!

Maybe these will help:

When I download and try to install Thunderbird I get the message "Your Thunderbird profile cannot be loaded, it may be missing or inaccessible".

Because of a virus, I redownloaded Thunderbird 24.4.0 and it completed until trying to open Thunderbird when I get the message "Your Thunderbird profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible." I know the profile exists in a "recovered files" folder. I've tried to move it to the current Thunderbird folder but get the same message. I've tried to follow a Mozillazine article but it's too complicated. Is there any online help, such as chat or phone?

I think I have finally figured out how to reply to you. Even though your email says to reply to [email protected], that just goes into dead space.
So to answer your question, the profiles.ini file has in it:
<pre><nowiki>{General}
StartWithLastProfile=1
{Profile0}
Name=default
IsRelative=1
Path=Profiles/ghdigdus.default</nowiki></pre>
Also, I want to mention that there is a Thunderbird folder in C:\ just above the Users folder. It has two profiles in it, one of which is the e00qmtzd.default folder.
Are we getting closer to solving this problem?

After updating iTunes to 11.0.1.12 and updating Apple TV to 5.1.1 my Apple TV is no longer picking up my photo library. It just keeps saying "loading library" but never brings the pictures up. It also tells me that home sharing isn't on even though it is and then I have to turn it off and on on the PC so the Apple TV even recognizes the photo library. These issues didn't happen with previous versions. Any ideas?

Update on my previous comment. I have solved my issue. Issue was with Windows 7 firewall not operating correctly. I was unable to add itunes to the 'Allow programs to communicate through windows firewall'. Found the following page useful http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-security/windows-fire wall-cant-change-some-of-your-settings/514d78fb-39e9-47b1-b561-bc49cbdad904
Followed the instructions to the foot of the page, restarted PC, normal service resumed on windows firewall, added itunes to list to communicate through firewall. restarted itunes, restarted appletv, success!!!
Hope this may help somone else.

To compound the problem there were NO restore dates found and no recent backups. I lost about the last entire year of data including all my many downloads and recent documents, etc.
Like another user, I also had more than a year of Thunderbird emails in my inbox and many other folders. Important to me. Now TBird won't open...at all... and gives me an error message: "Your Thunderbird profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible." OK. So I uninstalled it and REINSTALLED IT, more than once, and still get this same error message after a supposedly successful installation. The error message and then TBird fails to open. Shouldn't it create a new profile with the new install?

No. It's looking for, and finding, profiles.ini but can't find the profile in the location stored in profiles.ini.
Deleting (or moving or renaming) profiles.ini should indeed force it to generate a new profile.
Do these help?

This problem can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems|this article]] for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).
To disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player:
#Go to this [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues Adobe Flash Player Help page].
#Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
#Click on '''Settings''' in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
# Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel. <br/> <br/>[[Image:fpSettings1.PNG]] <br/>
# Remove the check mark from '''Enable hardware acceleration'''.
# Click '''Close''' to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
# Restart Firefox.
This [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player Help - Display Settings page] has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.
Does this solve the problem? Let us know.
