Thunderbird keeps downloading to wrong location

I`m working in windows 7 professional 64 bit with a Gmail account
I`ve set the location for the mail on my E disk rather then my C disk. (E:\Thunderbird)
Nevertheless thunderbird keeps downloading to C:\Users\T\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird.
Somehow my emailsignature doesn`t come through, my contact favorites have gone, as are the dictionarries and the agenda.
I would like to be sure all the links are set correctly and no mail gets lost.
Thank you.

Thank you very much Zenos!
I had the intention to move to whole lot but did not see or overlooked the part about moving the profiles to the same location.
I`ve done this now.
The favourite contacts and dictionarries are still missing but this a very minor issue.
Thanks for the swift help!

  • Purchased songs download to wrong location

    When I purchase songs from iTunes (Windows), the songs are placed in "C:\Users\User\Music" despite my preferences in iTunes indicating the locaiton of "C:\Users\User\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media".  But, even more frustrating is the song in the library is pointing to the iTunes folder.  Therefore, after downloading a song...iTunes can not find it.  What can I do to fix this?

    Are you booting up the EHD prior to purchasing from the store? If the EHD is not booted up prior to doing anything in iTunes including purchasing the drive location for the iTunes music folder will revert back to the main drive.

  • Right click - save image keeps saving to wrong location

    I moved my firefox profile over from my old computer.
    Now when i do right click -> save image as, it SOMETIMES defaults to C:\Users\test\Documents. Which was my old default location.
    I have changed it to C:\Users\Question\Documents on my current computer but it randomly changes back to C:\Users\test\Documents. I cannot find a pattern that causes it to change, but it seems to happen mainly after i restart my computer (not always though).
    Can someone please tell me how to get it to change to C:\Users\Question\Documents PERMANENTLY?

    Oh right i forgot the first answer to every problem is "reinstall firefox".
    Does anyone have a suggestion that does not involve reinstalling firefox and wiping my profile?

  • Thunderbird keeps downloading the same messages even after deleting from trash folder

    Also get this message no when emailing one of my groups " is not a valid e-mail address because it is not of the form user@host. You must correct it before sending the e-mail."

    Hello, could you please provide the following information?
    * What type of email account is it (IMAP or POP)?
    * Who is the email provider (GMail, other webmail, self-hosted..)?
    Please consider creating a new thread about the groups email issue. Having one thread per question makes it easier to answer, read and search for them.
    Doing so will also allow the Mozilla volunteers to give you solutions that are more helpful to you. This may help them to solve your problem faster and more efficiently.

  • Folders on the IMAP server do not appear or appear in wrong location - those cannot be modified in Thunderbird because "they do not exist on server".

    Hi all,
    A few days ago, I moved 3 sub-folders within my Archive folder. I was doing those modifications using Thunderbird.
    My Archive folder used to contain the following sub-folders:
    Archive
    /A2014
    /B2014
    /C2014
    I tried to move the folders A2014, B2014 and C2014 under the sub-folder LastYear, and created new A, B and C folders for 2015, so that it would be something like:
    Archive
    /LastYear
    /A2014
    /B2014
    /C2014
    /A2015
    /B2015
    /C2015
    On the webmail interface, everything looks fine: the old A, B and C folders where moved into the Archives/LastYear folder, and the new A, B and C folders appear under Archives. However, on Thunderbird things are a bit more... strange.
    Case 1: For some folders, things are as they should be.
    Folders A2014 and B2014 were correctly moved into Archives/LastYear.
    Folders A2015 and C2015 were correctly created in Archives.
    Case 2: One folder does not appear at all - anymore.
    Folder B2015 does not appear anywhere - despite being visible on the webmail interface. It does not appear in the list of folders to synchronize. No .msf file appear. Nothing happens if I try creating it again.
    Note that it briefly existed after I created it, but stopped appearing a few hours later.
    Case 3: One folder appears in the wrong location and cannot be accessed.
    Folder C2014 appears in the old location (Archives) and not were it should be (and is on the webmail interface), that is Archives/LastYear. I cannot perform any operation on it in Thunderbird, I systematically get the following error message:
    "The current operation on 'C2014' did not succeed. The mail server for account <AccountName> responded: "Archives/C2014" doesn't exist."
    (Which is correct because according to the server the folder C2014 is in Archives/LastYear).
    The C2014.msf file is also wrongly located, but moving it to the correct location did not change anything: the next time Thunderbird was started, the wrongly located .msf file was re-created.
    Thunderbird does not show the emails contained in this folder - when I try loading them I get the previous error message.
    Using the same style than before, here is how my Archives folder look right now:
    Archive
    /LastYear
    /A2014
    /B2014
    /A2015
    /C2015
    /C2014
    I am totally flabbergasted, I have no idea of where the problem is. I tried various fixes found on forums (such as playing around with the .msf files), but no luck so far. Any idea?
    A few more details:
    - I use an IMAP server.
    - This is a professional address, and I have little control on it.
    - I use Thunderbird with this account on two different computer, the problem is identical on both computers.
    - I tried removing/re-installing the account from Thunderbird, it did not change anything.
    I would be eternally grateful if any of you could come up with a solution!
    Many many thanks,
    Agnes

    I know my files downloaded through Firefox won't appear in my downloads folder because that is just supported by Safari
    No, I think that Apple just assigned the Downloads folder to Safari to send things there by default. You can do the same with Firefox, just go to the Firefox Preferences, click on main, tick the "Save files to..." and click the Choose button, then navigate to /Users/yourname/Downloads and click choose. I have always had all my Internet applications download things to a Downloads folder I keep at the root level of the drive (so all users can access them), but I just changed the Firefox pref to the new Apple Downloads folder and it worked fine.

    If it says your billing info is wrong that means that your credit card issuer is refusing to approve your account. You will have to solve the problem with your bank or credit card company.

    I tried to reinstall the driver many times from http://www.orange.jo/en/software.php and again nothing has changed the same behavior again !

  • Adobe Application Manager keeps downloading in Spanish.

    Hello everyone.
    I just purchased the Adobe Creative Cloud membership. My adobe applications manager keeps downloading in Spanish. I've change the language settings to English (international) in the preferences. No luck- all the adobe applications still show up in Spanish. No idea how to fix this.
    Any ideas?

    Reinstalling really should make no difference.  Did you perhaps use any utilities to remove additional languages from your Adobe Applications?  I am seeing increasing reports of users who have utilized these type of utilities which is then leading to unexpected behavior such as application updates not installing successfully.
    At this point I would recommend reviewing your installation logs to see if there are any error messages which might explain why you are experiencing this issue.  You can find details on how to review your installation logs at Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html.
    If you are unable to locate any specific errors then I would recommend contacting our support team when they are open on Monday.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app (or video app) on your iOS device.
    If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

    Try signing out, then back in on your phone: Settings>Store>Apple ID, tap the ID shown, sign out, sign back in.  If that doesn't work, reset your password here: https://iforgot.apple.com.

  • How can I separate my daughter's iTunes purchases from mine (the paying account)?  Some of her music is dreadful and it keeps downloading to my iPhone.

    Greetings all:  I've looked through the support communities and don't see this particular question.  I opened an iTunes account quite a few years ago and my daughter and I made purchases and shared home libraries and all was well.  However, as she's gotten older, her taste in music has changed and some of it is dreadful.   It keeps downloading (from the Cloud?) to my iPhone.   How can we separate her purchases from mine?  We have five devices authorized (her laptop, tablet and iPod and my iPhone and my laptop.) My account is the paying account.  Many thanks for your assistance!

    On your iOS device:
    Settings > Music > turn Show ALl Music off
    This will hide purchases that are not locally on your device.
    In iTunes create a Playlist with just your music and sync only that playlist.

  • Robo Help Server 8 Publishing files to wrong location

    Hi
    I have recently installed a trail verstion of Robo Help 8 server.  All appears to be ok with the install I can access the website and log into the admin portal etc...  The only diffrence from the default install is that I have configured tomcat to use port 80 rather than 8080.
    However I am having a problem whenever i try to publish a help file from Robo Help 8, I input all of the details of the server <Server IP>/robohelp/server
    put in the default admin username and password and select the general area to publish the help file to.  All of the files appear to publish ok from Robo Help 8 and no errors are receved.
    When I log onto the admin portal of the website the there is nothing displayed in the projects window.  I have check the local disk of there server were robo help is installed and i think the problem may be that the server is putting the files in the wrong location.
    I can see that a folder has been created in the following location
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe RoboHelp Server 8\robo\server\general\projects\TestProject
    with the following folders within it
    resource
    webhelp_skin_files
    whdata
    whxdata
    However none of these folders contain any data.
    All of the files apper to be uploading to C:\ not the above directory wich is what i would expect.
    If a copy the files that have been uploaded to C:\ to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe RoboHelp Server 8\robo\server\general\projects\TestProject and restart the tomcat service the project then shows in the project window.  However when i click view project all i get is a blank screen.  I have searched the forum but cannot find anyone having a similar issue.
    Any help would be gratley appriciated.
    Below is the config of the Server
    Windows 2003 Server IIS not installed
    Java 6.21
    Tomcat 6.0.29
    Robo Help Server 8

    aha!
    If the firewall is on, turn it off.

  • Maps directs me to wrong location

    Hi All -- My Google maps (the one that came with the phone) constantly sends me to the wrong location. I'll type in a known address (let's say 5410 Wilshire Blvd, 90036) and it will give me directions just to Wilshire Blvd (no street address). It does this almost every time, both in Maps view and List view.
    I've tried typing the address in, or linking to it from my calendar meeting location, and still doesn't work.
    I have the google app, so I can go there, go to Maps and enter it in there and it works fine, but that seems like a lot of extra work. Anyone find a fix?
    Also, I'm finding it near impossible to view traffic on the map if you have a route marked.

    I have the google app, so I can go there, go to Maps and enter it in there and it works fine, but that seems like a lot of extra work. Anyone find a fix?
    I just tried this ("5410 Wilshire Blvd, 90036") and a red pin drops down to a precise street address (looks to be over Vince). Where does your red pin fall?
    Also, I'm finding it near impossible to view traffic on the map if you have a route marked.
    This is a problem I experience as well. Unfortunately the best solution I have found is that once the purple route line has been drawn after tapping Route, to just toggle over to Search and the purple will go away. This way you can see traffic conditions as you have a general idea of where the purple is.
