Thunderbird email messages restored but not contacts

Something went right, I don't know how I did it but I restored all of my Gmail messages into my Thunderbird account. But my contact list did not make it.
I use Carbonite for backup and that restoration did not restore my contacts.
Thunderbird talks of a "profile" but what exactly is that? Why if my messages came back, I know not how, why not contacts?

Hi and Welcome to the Community!!
I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step):
1) Register HRT
KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network
Please wait for one "registration" message to arrive to your Messages app
2) Delete and Resend Service Books
KB05000Delete the service book for the BlackBerry Internet Service email account from the BlackBerry smartphone
If you have no CMIME entry, then skip the deletion
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
Please wait for "Activation" Messages, one per already configured email account, to arrive in your Messages. If you have no already configured email accounts, please wait 1 hour.
3) Batt Pull Reboot
With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
See if that allows the messages to now display.
Good luck!

Im trying to drag and drop a email group from contacts to a new email message. But it will not let me in OS X Mavericks. Before I upgraded I could do this.

Im trying to drag and drop a email group from contacts to a new email message. But it will not let me in OS X Mavericks. Before I upgraded I could do this.

I just posted this fix to another thread and thought it might be useful to post to all of the threads I read trying to fix the problem. Here it is:
Having the same issue over here with Mavericks 10.9.1 on a new Macbook Pro/Retina. Just now found a workaround/fix/whatever:
- click on your group in the group pane of the address panel
- click anywhere in the name pane and select all (command + a)
- click the "To:" or "Cc:" or "Bcc:" tab right above the group pane at the top of the address panel window.
The names of all of the individuals in the group will appear as an expanded list in whatever field you clicked. It takes a second or two to happen.

I am getting an Error 5.7.1 message when I send emails on Firefox; but not on Internet Explorer. Why?

I am receiving an Error 5.7.1 message when I try to send emails, or respond to emails on Firefox; but not on Internet Explorer. It just started doing this today.

iCloud also doesn't do tunes with bitrates below 96 Kbps.

HT4865 can I share music and photos but not contacts and messages?

can I share music and photos but not contacts and messages between devices. Each of my children have devices and they want to share some stuff but not others

Sorted it myself thanks. Had to completely wipe iPhone and set it up as a fresh phone.

Sending the same email message several times to contacts. Turned off iCloud, but still sending message.

Sending the same email message several times to contacts. Turned off iCloud, but still sending message.
A user had synced all of his contacts from his computer and iPhone to his iCloud. Today, his iCloud sent out the same message 20 times to all recipients. We were able to transfer all calendar items and contacts back to his pc and then disable iCloud. However, it still sent out the messages. Any ideas?

It's a carrier issue. I have AT&T and had this issue with my friend (who had an Android) and my mother (who had a feature phone). Both of them have Verizon for service and I'm thinking the issue was on Verizon's end. They both just dealt with it as we tried all sorts of things to get this sorted out (other than contacting Verizon directly) and had no luck.
They've both switched to iPhones so it's a moot point for us now, at least.

Ever since upgrading to Mountain Lion, my AOL messages sometimes, but not always open with a blank page. If I open AOL in Firefox, the messages open fine. This does not happen with any messages by any means, and it is not any type of certain message

Ever since upgrading to Mountain Lion, my AOL messages sometimes, but not always open with a blank page. If I open AOL in Firefox, the messages open fine. This does not happen with any messages by any means, and it is not any type of certain message. In fact, in the same screen I can often open an email from the same sender with email intact. This is weird. Sometimes I close the page and open a new page. Sometimes that works and sometimes it does not. It is a very annoying thing.

Hi,
When you start Messages fro the first time you are asked for an Apple ID
When this is verified and entered it appears in Messages Menu > Preference > Accounts and is Enabled.
The App should have also picked on on those iChat Accounst you had before.
These should be Enabled if they were when you last used iChat.
Exactly which "Accounts" are logged in can be seen in Message Menu > Accounts and will include the iMessage "Account" and Bonjour.
In the Window menu you will see CMD +0 for the Messages window and CMD+1 for the "Buddies" window which is a combined list at this stage.
Go to the Preferences > General Section and Untick the "Collect all accounts into one list".
This will give you separate iChat type Buddy lists.
You can check if that account/Buddy list is set to Invisible or if in the Preferences > Accounts > Security you have settings that will block some people from seeing you as On line.
You are saying Buddies can see you as On Line which implies they are still sending to your AIM based Names (@Mac.com is a valid AIM Screen Name)
I am not sure from your post if you are trying to iMessage their email IDs thinking they are Apple IDs and that they are using Messages as well.
There is no Buddy list for iMessages side
No-one can tell you are "On Line" until they have your details in the "To" spot in Messages with the correct iMessaged contact info (iPhone Number or Apple ID)
Obviously an Apple ID can be an email or look like one.
In some cases they are also valid AIM Screen Names as well.
In the case or the @mac.com name you may have linked this Apple ID to iMessages as well.

Email gets queued, but not sent until I login to my account on the server.

This is very strange. Let me explain.
1. Snow Leopard Server 10.6.2 running on an iMac.
2. I have the Mail Service running on the server. I can receive emails without problems.
3. Using my Snow Leopard Server email account, I attempt to send an email to another account (e.g. a mac.com email account).
4a. If I am actively logged into my Snow Leopard Server account *on the iMac* (e.g. via VNC, as long as my desktop is active), the email will arrive successfully. Here are the mail.log messages:
postfix/smtpd\[69030]: connect from \[External Host Address]

4b. If, however, my Snow Leopard Server account is either logged out, or even just "fast user switched" to the Login Window, the email gets queued, but not sent to the external email address. I get the following four messages in the mail.log file:
postfix/smtpd\[69030]: connect from \[External Host Address]
postfix/smtpd\[69030]: B5F574AD582: client=\[External Host Address], sasl_method=CRAM-MD5, sasl_username=MyUserName

postfix/qmgr\[65313]: B5F574AD582: from=<[email protected]>, size=604, nrcpt=1 (queue active)
4c. The instant I login to my machine at home (e.g. via VNC), the email finishes processing. The below messages are logged, and my external email account receives the email:
postfix/smtpd\[69160]: connect from localhost\[127.0.0.1]

I'm very much at a loss here. It's as if the act of logging out (or fast user switching to the Login Window) suspends some process that is required for my email to process. But .... why?
Any ideas? Any additional information I can provide to help figure this out? Fwiw, I used to run Tiger Server (never tried Leopard Server) and never had this problem.

Looks to me like the anti-virus scanner, amavis. The clue is the line:
postfix/smtp[69038]: 942814AD55B: to=<[email protected]>, relay=127.0.0.1\[127.0.0.1\]:10024, delay=0.25, delays=0.1/0.01/0/0.14, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 2.0.0 Ok: queued as C611B4AD568)
where the 10024 is the default port that Amavis runs on. Postfix is configured to pass mail through this port, and queues the mail until Amavis is available.
My guess, therefore, is that Amavis is set to run under your account rather than under the system, which is why it only runs when you're logged in. Off hand I have no idea how you managed this and that makes it hard to work out how to fix it. I'd start by looking for org.amavis.amavisd.plist in /System/Library/LaunchDaemons, /Library/LaunchDaemons and ~/Library/LaunchDaemons (it should be in the former, but if its in the latter that could explain it.

My ipod has had a previous owner How do I change my ipods email address so that when I try to down load anything it asks for the previous owners password but when I go to my account it says its my email my account but not when I try to download????

My ipod has had a previous owner How do I change my ipods email address so that when I try to down load anything it asks for the previous owners password but when I go to my account it says its my email my account but not when I try to download can anyone please help me ????Plus it still has some of the previous owners pictures and videos on it that I want to delete and can't????? Also is there a way to kill the apps that u have used throughout the day the battery doesn't last long at all ??????

- How did you dlete stuff from the iPod? If you have a 1G or 2G iPod and deleted the stuff by going to Settings>Genera.>Reset>Erase aall contents and settings without being connected to a power source, the battery dies before he erase was comleted since it can take hour.
- In any event try the following:
- Connect to a chaging sour for three hours.
- Reset the iPod and then connect to the computer and try to restore va iTunes.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Next try placing the iPod in recovery moe and then try to restore. For recovery mode:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
- Last try DFU made and restore.

I want signature in emails I originate, but not replies

I want signature in emails I originate, but not replies. How can I make this happen, please?
Thanks.

You can only set it to use for sending automatically, but you can't specify between new messages or replies. Don't see any way to change it.
Just in case you don't know about this, you can have the Signautre Box available with new message or replies. If you don't have it showing, choose customize at the left bottom of the new message header window and check to show signature box.That makes it easy to add a signature or remove one, depending on how you have it set up.

My o2 email will receive, but not send on my ipad

My o2 email will receive, but not send. I've got other email accounts on the ipad & they all work OK. The o2 mail account used to work properly, but I needed to remove the account & since I've put it back on, it won't work on my ipad. Works ok on android mobile phone. I've checked the settings & spoken to o2, but they couldn't solve! It may be since I've joined the cloud? Any advice, gratefully received. Thanks.

Recheck the settings once again. There is something wrong. And it seems to happen to O2 people with some regularity. Google o2 mail settings and you will get a page with the details. Pay close attention to the port setting, you may need to change it on the pad, and that may be the problem.

Iphone 6 email will receive but not send

Since moving the stored iphone 4 backup to my iphone 6, I've been able to receive email on it but not send. Should I remove the account and reenter all the account information or ... is there another option?
Thanks,

Thanks Spaidr,
That was part of it. I did an end-around by setting up an alternate outgoing (send) server which was the same as the primary, identical settings, name, password. I deselected the primary and used only the secondary. Reboot as you suggested and Voila! Something must have been corrupted in the primary.
Thanks and hope this helps others.

I have an Iphone that was stolen and I want to delete all text messages remotely, but do not have the mobile me app installed. How do I do this?

You don't. Change all your passwords, tell you provider, tell the police, tell your insurance company.
