Thunderbird automatically goes offline. We want it to stay online all the time. What do we need to do?

Thunderbird automatically goes offline -- even if the computer has not gone to sleep -- even though we maintain network connection. How can I stop this from happening (it is very annoying!!)?
We are on version 24.6.0

This does appear to be a mac issue. The issue will be your network card going to sleep so Thunderbird can not connect to the internet.

  • When i walk away for 5 min the browser goes offline how do i keep it online all the time?

    when i step away form the computer firefox goes offline after a few minutes how do i stop this i need firefox to stay online

    You can create a new Boolean pref with the name network.manage-offline-status and set the value to false.
    You can right-click on the about:config page to open the right-click context menu and use "New > Boolean" to create a new Boolean pref.
    Name: network.manage-offline-status<br />
    Value: false
    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />

  • Nokia 97 wants to connect to intenet all the time

    Hello all
    I have a problem with my N97 that is eating my nerves.
    All the time in a inteval of cca. 5-10 minutes a popup appears on the screen where the phone asks me to which network I want to connect. If I click any connection the connection logo appears in the upper right corner and goes away at the moment.. in 10 minutes the same problem and so on and on and on :/... It's very disturbing because it appears really often and everywhere - if I write sms, call someone,...
    Did anybody have the same problem and has anybody an idea how this could be solved.
    Thank you for you answers!
    Kind Regards, Bojan

    Ovi Contacts is now built-in to the main Contacts app.  To function properly, it needs an active internet connection so it may be this causing your problem too.

  • I want my fan to run all the time on power adapter, any guru know how?

    After buring out one hard drive, and getting tired of hauling a mini-fan and 1/2" foot spacers around with me between motels, I want a way to force the powerbook fan to run at full speed all-the-time when the powerbook is connected to a/the power adapter. Anybody out there know of a "patch" / "script" / "shell add-on" that will do this on 10.2.x?

    Trust me, you don't want to do this. That's not how they are designed to run. If your machine is overheating, consider this article:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=30612
    And perhaps a notebook cooler, like this one by Antec. And when get back home, run the hardware test that came with your machine:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86178
    If your machine is under AppleCare, I would take it in for service if any issues are detected.
    Also note if your battery is under the battery exchange program:

  • Page outs going crazy for basic tasks - Mac stalls all the time - what's up?!

    Hey, guys. So I have no idea what the problem is. Basically my mac is just going extremely slow and stalling sometimes for the most basic tasks. Mail, Safari, iTunes. It's a late '09 model, basic.
    Check this out:
    [IMG]http://i44.tinypic.com/2ewkri1.png[/IMG]

    There is excessive swapping of data between physical memory and virtual memory. That can happen for two reasons:
    You have a long-running process with a memory leak (i.e., a bug), or
    You don't have enough memory installed for your usage pattern.
    Tracking down a memory leak can be difficult, and it may come down to a process of elimination.
    When you notice the swap activity, open the Activity Monitor application and select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected. Click the heading of the Real Mem column in the process table twice to sort the table with the highest value at the top. If you don't see that column, select
    View ▹ Columns ▹ Real Memory
    from the menu bar.
    If one process (excluding "kernel_task") is using much more memory than all the others, that could be an indication of a leak. A better indication would be a process that continually grabs more and more real memory over time without ever releasing it. Here is an example of how it's done.
    The process named "Safari Web Content" renders web pages for Safari and other applications. It uses a lot of memory and may leak if certain Safari extensions or third-party web plugins are installed. Consider it a prime suspect.
    If you don't have an obvious memory leak, your options are to install more memory (if possible) or to run fewer programs simultaneously.
    The next suggestion is only for users familiar with the shell. For a more precise, but potentially misleading, test, run the following command: 
    sudo leaks -nocontext -nostacks process | grep total
    where process is the name of a process you suspect of leaking memory. Almost every process will leak some memory; the question is how much, and especially how much the leak increases with time. I can’t be more specific. See the leaks(1) man page and the Apple developer documentation for details.

  • When I click a mailto link in Firefox, it no longer opens a window for me to write and send the email in Thunderbird (which is my default email app and is open all the time).

    Not sure. Possibly since I got a new laptop with Win 7 or maybe since my last Firefox update. I usually have a very current version of Firefox and Thunderbird. My laptop is 64 bit.

    Check the value under Tools -> Options -> Applications, filtering for '''mailto''', and make sure it is set to Thunderbird.

  • I only want to show favorite channels all the time when I go to Guide. Hide others.

    Is there a way to only show Favorites? I don't want to have to select Favorites, and make it easy on the family to see a limited amount of channels. I can create favorites but i have to Select 'Show Favorites'. 
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance.

    Yes, you can.
    There is a feature called Flip By Favorites, which you'll find under the Favorite Channels menu in Settings. Once the Flip By Favorites option is enabled, the box will only show the channels you have added to the selected favorites list. Channels that you have not added will be permanently hidden from the guide; the only way to access those channels will be to input their channel numbers manually.

  • Automatically connects to sync and will start playing music all the time even when not using sync

    My iPhone 4S will automatically start playing music as soon as I start my vehicle with sync.you can't hear it but on the screen it shows its playing even when listening to the radio

    Try resetting it if you can: hold the on/off and home buttons until you see the Apple logo (ignore the off slider that appears first), then release.  If you can't, try to connect it to iTunes, go to the Summary tab of your sync settings and click Restore to restore it.  If that doesn't work you'll have to force it into recovery mode to restore it as outlined here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808.
    You can check in iTune to see if you have a backup.  They are listed in iTunes>Preferences>Devices.  However, the backup may not bring your contacts back as contacts are only backed up as necessary to preserve the recent call and call favorites lists.

  • HT4108 I have a projector and I want to show output video all the time,but I can only get it to work on safari

    I have a projector and I was looking for an app that would allow output video all the time

    The one you are looking at I believe is an older model and does not have very good reviews for working with an AppleTV2 / iPad 2 setup.
    Here is the one that has worked for our district:
    http://www.amazon.com/ViewHD-Component-Converter-Support-Surround/dp/B004F9XVBC/ ref=pd_cp_e_2
    I can't say if the one you are referring two works or not, however I can say that based on the reviews, it looks like you may run into problems with the $45 version.

  • 10.0.01 ver. doesn't sign-in automatically i look up password manager, it seems it saves usernames and passwords, when i visit websites i am not automatically signed in and when i reopen mozilla it keeps on asking main password to sign-in all the time.

    10.0.01 version doesn't sign-in automatically... i look up password manager, it seems to it saves usernames and passwords, when i try to visit that website i am not automatically signed in and when i reopen mozilla it keeps on asking main password to sign-in all the time... it happened after mozilla updated itself... please help about it.. (i dont have problems like this in Opera browser)
    mozilla fills user name when i click but after that it asks for main password (whats the purpose of remembering passwords if it will ask for main password)
    by the way main password for password manager is of course useful but it şs useful whenever i want to use it not all the time i open mozilla .
    and not all the time i open a website or forum which i often use...
    there were no problems before it updated itself...
    please tell me the solution

    my problem is not related with using main password or not...
    in former versions of firefox i was automatically signed in to websites without any click... it wasnt asking me to sign-in (because my usernames and passwords were remembered-and saved in password manager)
    in this version they are remembered again but i have to write first 2-3 letters of my username and it remembers my username then it remembers password...
    for example when i clicked twitter.com my account and my homepage as automatically opened, but in this version when i click twitter.com it opens the sign-in page and i write first 2 letters of my user name it remembers name and password and then i signin
    (difference i was at where i want to sign in with one click--- but in new version 1click for webpage-1 click for clicking to username are-1-2 letter writing to find my user name-1 click to remember password-1 click to sign in) an addition: also if i am using main password i am entering main password and click to sign-in
    This can be little problem to u, but it is really annoying problem, 9-10 clicks more for each webpage which i wanted mozilla to remember my usernames and passwords... it also asks main password if i am using...
    if i want to visit 5-6 different websites it means 70-80 clicks more and 50-60 letters typing according to your main password .. (in opera and mozillas former versions it is just 5-6 clicks)
    so main problem is the cookies were remembered in all the sessions but after it updated to v.10.0.1 expiry date of cookies of same websites that i visit are just for one session... it is not related with the websites and their servers that i visit because if so how can Opera remembers all the time...

  • Customer wants to able to have his Windows VM  accessable all the time.

    How can I make a user's windows VM stay available all the time on their Sun Ray without it checking back into the pool?

    You missed to mention which VDI version you are using. This is important because the capabilities and terminology slightly differs between Sun VDI 2 and Sun VDI 3.
    Sun VDI 3 distinguishes between *"personal"* and *"flexible"* desktop assignments.
    A personal desktop is owned by the assigned user (similar to a PC under his desk) and is never made available for other users.
    A flexible desktop is only temporary owned by the user and once the user logs out the desktop is recycled and becomes available for the next user.
    If you select and assign a specific desktop to a user, Sun VDI 3 will automatically use a "personal" assignment here. If you assign a pool to a user, then a specific desktop is picked up from the pool and assigned to this user on demand (when the user requests a desktop for the first time). You can specify for each pool the default assignment type that should be used then - either "flexible" or "personal". At any time you can explicitly change an existing desktop assignment from flexible to personal if needed.
    Sun VDI 2 uses a slightly different terminology: A *"static"* desktop is owned by a user (similar to personal in Sun VDI 3). A *"dynamic" or "temporary"* desktop is only temporary owned by the user (similar to flexible in Sun VDI 3). All desktops that are part of a pool are per default dynamic. Static desktops are not part of any pool. Sun VDI 2 does not offer to configure the default assignment type per pool. However, you can set the recycling interval for a pool to infinite meaning that the desktops will never by recycled - this simulates the personal assignment type available in Sun VDI 3.

    You probably have Repeat turned on.  While playing the song, tap the cover art to reveal the additional music controls (see photo below).  Tap the Repeat control  on the bottom left until it turns white (white is off, blue is on).

  • We use Thunderbird all the time and love it, but for about a week it constantly goes into not responding mode. My boss uses the same service at home with no pr

    Thunderbird is a great asset to my boss and I. We use Thunderbird all the time and love it, but for about a week it constantly goes into "not responding mode". My boss uses the same service at home with no problem at all.
    I did an "safe mode" and restart and for a few minutes I thought it was "healed". However, I did a search and the same thing started happening again. The little blue ring starts spinning and "not responding" pops up above the toolbar. Sometime the screen fades to a sort of greyish and no mouse click are responded to, even to close Thunderbird.
    Please help however you can. Our office number is 512.246.3995.
    Thank you,
    Mary

    We wonder if it is a firewall problem that developed here at the office. My boss uses her account at home and all is well, but here, experiences the same issues I described
