Thunderbird is no longer downloading new emails and indicates that it is not responding.

My old emails display as do the contents of other folders.

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.

  • My iPad suddenly stopped downloading new emails and also started downloading 16000 emails from the server!  Why and how to I fix this?

    I cannot get new emails and my iPad is trying to download 16000+ emails from the server!

    I would delete the e-mail account from your iPad's Mail Account List, Lock & Unlock your iPad by pressing power button to refresh system, than re-add the Mail Account with the correct POP3 + SMTP settings..

  • I am no longer able to download new messages, and Thunderbird indicates that it is not responding.

    I am receiving some emails on my iPad, but not all of them.

    Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    What's the plist file?
    For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

  • 10.3.1.1779 causes three out of four of my email accounts to no longer download new messages (I consider it bricked)

    I started using my mothballed and unlocked Q10 a week ago, and unfortunately it was set to Automatically Download and Install Software Updates.
    After updating to 10.3.1.1779 I noticed three out of my four email accounts aren't downloading new email messages.
    The only way to get new email messages is to delete the email account and then create it again.  The problem is this is a temporary fix, and after a day or so the email accounts will stop refreshing.
    I have the same issue with my new (few week old) Passport (10.3.1.1372).  Blackberry support indicated this is a known issue and all I can do is wait for an OS update.
    In fact I took the SIM from the Passport and put it into my mothballed Q10, because as far as I'm concered a Blackberry that can't download new email messages is a bricked smartphone.
    I will mothball the Q10 again with my brand new (weeks old) ATT Passport.  They will sit gathering dust for months+ until the OS gets fixed.
    Luckily I have a Z30 and Z10 to use, and they have old OS 10 versions without this bug.
    Blackberry better get this fixed ASAP.  I'm actually considering switching to Iphone because of this, and I'd never thought I'd say that.  A smartphone that can't reliably download email is a brick, it can't be trusted, there is almost no point in carrying it.
    I can wait a month or two, after that I'll be rethinking my use of Blackberry.
    What would the average person do with this problem, they don't have five unlocked BB10 devices like I do.  They only have one.  They will have to stop using their BB and get another device.
    I'm not sure how to back out the OS version.  I'll look into that next.  I already miss the Q10.

    Now I now know exactly what is happening, however don't know how to permanently fix the issue.
    What is happening, is duplicate Inbox's are created for the account on the BB.
    I discovered this by pressing the "v" on the top of the displayed account.
    When you do this you can see Inbox, Outbox, Drafts, etc.
    I notice > 1 Inbox.  Actually this morning on my Q10, I had two Inbox's, now three.
    None of them are green icons with a circular set of arrows.
    If I'm missing a received email on the currently displayed Inbox, I'll find it in another of the Inboxes.
    This is a total pain in the butt.  I hope Blackberry knows this is an issue.
    I'm not even sure how to report it, without paying for support !
    For now I'll delete, then add back the account, to atleast start fresh with one Inbox.  I'm sure multiple Inboxes will show up over time.

  • My Outlook 2011 is synchronising and deleting old emails not on my ISP's database. How to I stop synchronisation, and only download new emails?

    My Outlook 2011 is synchronising with an IMAP account and deleting old emails not on my ISP's database. How to I stop synchronisation, and only download new emails?

    The "LocalAccount" is "On My Mac" and doesn't correspond to an account on a mail server. That all I can tell you from the information provided.

    Just set up an email account on new iPhone. How do I stop it wanti g to download all 4,000  emails off my server and just download new emails?

    You can go into settings, mail, contacts and calendars, and set your mail to only download the last 50.
    When you actually set upthe account, you can go into any available advanced settings and see if that can be set to new mail only. Unfortunately, every mail provider had slightly different things they'll allow you to tweak, so you just have to play to see what you can do.
    For example, when I set up my Yahoo, I have different things I can tweak than I do on my Hotmail account, so some accounts allow more ability to tweak than others.

  • I cannot download new email

    On my iPod touch I have three accounts: two Gmail (a personal and professional) and one Exchange account that's linked to the professional Gmail account. The Exchange is for syncing contacts and calendars. However, a few days ago I can no longer download new messages onto my professional Gmail account inbox. The strange thing is that I can still send messages from that account and I can download messages in the Exchange inbox. IMAP is enabled in Gmail (I wouldn't be able to get the emails from Exchange if it wasn't) and I've tried typing in my email and password several times with no result. The iPod gives me the message "the server imap.google.com is not responding," though it clearly is, since I can still get email from the Exchange and the personal Gmail inboxes.

    <blockquote>
    I tried to erase my password so I could get a restart, but Thunderbird does not ask for a new password. It just loads my old emails from before the update.
    </blockquote>
    I was able to fix this by changing the port to 465, which did not work. However when I changed the port back to 995 as recommended I got the message asking for my password finally. When I entered the password everything loaded.

  • My ipod touch will no longer download new apps after i updated via apple store.How can i get the updates deleted or correct the problem moving forward?

  • HT5625 Here's my story: I "signed out" of my account on my IPAD. Then I DID NOT hit "create a new ID" - I simply filled in the top information with new email and password (the ipads new owner) - this got all set up but now when it wants to update anything

    I gave my second IPAD to a friend.
    I also recently changed the email associated with my own account
    because I will be moving and will be unable to use that address much longer...
    now I am not yet sure I can update my own apps (will it ask for old email and password?)
    on the given IPAD - with the new Apple ID and password it is asking for
    my present but soon to be disabled email with password - but it does not
    recognize the password (i dont think it will recognize it when i upgrade as well!)
    QUESTION
    How do I straighten this mess out to be able to update all future apps on two
    iphones and two ipads each having one different their separate Apple IDs?
    and how can I get it to recognize the password that was at one time associated
    with that email address
    WSD

    Apps are forever tied to the Apple ID under which they were purchased. If your friend wants to be able to manage apps on their device using their own Apple ID, they will need to delete all the apps purchased using your Apple ID and buy their own.
    Hopefully, you just updated your own Apple ID with the new email and didn't make the mistake of creating a new Apple ID. If you created a new ID, stop using it now, don't buy anything using it and go back and update the ID under which you purchased your apps.

  • My Yahoo Mail is not Working on any of my Apple devices,  It attempts to download new email but then stops.  Any ideas?

    My Yahoo Mail is not Working on any of my Apple devices,  It attempts to download new email but then stops.  Any ideas?

    I, too, am having a problem with my Yahoo email account on my first generation IPad. I can't download my emails to my IPad from the server. The IPad looks like it's trying to download them but can't do it. I am able to send emails from my IPad with my Yahoo account.
    This problem started yesterday, Aug., 25th, the day after I uploaded the last update from Apple. I am able to set up another email account through Sbcglobal that will download my emails to my IPad but it is not sync'ed with my desktop mail which creates a mess when I move or delete emails.
    I've tried deleting my Yahoo account and then adding it back. Also I've reset my IPad and I've done a full restore.
    I think it has something to do with the last update, which I believe was a security update, which may have reset the firewall. That's just a guess.
    Has anyone figures out anything else?

  • HT5622 I own three Apple devices, but my iPad remained associated with my old email address and password. How can I register it with the same new email and password?

    I own three Apple devices, but my iPad remained associated with my old email address and password. How can I register it with the same new email and password?

    If you updated your existing account then try logging out of it on the iPad by tapping on the id in Settings > Store and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on the iPad. If you created a new account then any content that you purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can download updates to its apps.

  • Cannot download new email ,can anyone help

    cannot download new email ,can anyone help

    This sounds like your authentication settings have been screwed up - I've had this a couple of times after Yosemite installs/upgrades.
    Check you have the correct port settings and authentication type. Sometimes changing the setting then changing it back works.

  • I have a new email and password for Icloud and cant sign in Ivloud accounts. It say connection error on my laptop. Had it before on my laptop.

    aI have a new email and password for my Icloud account and have a HP Pavillon laptop. Cnt sign into Icloud/ It says connection error! I had Icloud on my HP Pavillon before.

    I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
    The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account.  I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there.  On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back.  Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email.  The device is currently useless.
    The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
    Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?

    Confirmed!
    It's an anti-virus related issue. First tried to disable only protection, firewall, etc., but it did not work fine.
    As suggested, so I deleted KMS (but keeping the application settings and objects in quarantine), and was finally able to complete the installation of the update.Then installed again KMS and everything still works fine.
    No experience of Wi-Fi issues.
