Thunderbird not responding, and I need to know how to find out what version of Thunderbird I have?

I am running Windows 7 Home Premium, use Firefox, but not sure how to tell what version. I have Zone Alarm anti-virus / firewall, iolo System Mechanic, and run them both regularly. I also have a g-mail account, a folder labeled "Gmail" in Thunderbird, and basically, 100% of my Gmail messages come to my Thunderbird inbox. After Thunderbird is opened, the green "loading" circle is seen rotating, @ bottom lower left says "Downloading message", @ bottom lower right, the "progress bar" BARELY shows any green, and Thunderbird takes FOREVER to load. If I try to click on an e-mail, (most times I don't even have to do that), my screen turns a milky opaque white, and at top of page says "Thunderbird"(not responding). Usually, I have to just leave the laptop, and return in 30 minutes or so to start opening my e-mails. Sometimes, it is ready for me to begin reading e-mail, and other times, it is STILL not responding, and I must continue to wait. Using cntrl / alt /del...task manager, scroll to Thunderbird, and click "end process" does no good; restarting, OR shut down / restart also does no good.

Typing '''Thunderbird Compact Folders''' into Google search will get you here.

  • I lost my ipod at the arena todat and I need to know how to find it ! thanks .

    I lost my ipod touch today at the arena and i need to know how to find it ! thanks

    Keep looking.
    Change your iTunes (Apple ID) password along with any other password that was stored in the iPod.  If any passwords are associated with credit cards, contact the CC company and get your card replaced (with a new number).  If any passwords are associated with your bank or any savings institution, contact them also and discuss approprate action with them.
    The "Find my..." function is pretty much useless if the device is in the hands of a thief.  All that is necessary is for the thief to connect to any computer with iTunes and "Restore as new."
    The only real protection you have is with the personal information on the device rather than the physical device itself.  Something as small as an iPod should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries.

  • Need to know how to find out when a friend request was sent?

    I really need to know how to find out when a friend request was sent. if anyone knows please tell me

    Btw.   The original purchase information on your app is available in your computer, in your iTunes account.
    Click apps and find the app you are looking for.
    Right click on the app and "get info"
    This will show when it was purchased and under what Apple ID.

  • HT201209 i need to know how to find out how much money is left on an itunes gift card

    i dont know how much money is on an itunes giftcard i have and i need to know a way to find out

    Once a card has been redeemed then its amount should be on your account, the card itself is now effectively zero. My account's balance shows at the top left of the store's page on my computer's iTunes, and by logging in to view my account via the Store > View Account menu option. On my devices it shows at the bottom of, for example, the Featured tab in the App Store app under my account id (or you can view your account via Settings > iTunes & App Stores and it should show on the screen that you are taken to)

  • I think one of my friends has stole my ipod and i need to know how to find it

    I really need.to find my ipod i beleve one of my friends has stole it

    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it.

  • Need to know how to find out the Variant associated with a background job

    Hello,
    Plz help me in finding out how to find the variant associated with a background job. I need to know which variant does the program picks up when it runs the scheduled background job. There are so many variants that exist. How do I figure out which one is being picked up by the program. When I go and see into the job that are already finished it shows the parameter as "&00000000645354" which I do not understand what it corresponds to. I was expecting a variant name instead of this number in the parameter field. Is there a way I can find out the name of teh variant the program is using automatically in the background job ??
    Thanks in anticipation

    Yes it is possible which is variant, input fields are choosen
    - go to SM37 and locate the background job which was processed using proper selection criteria
    - select the Job and click on 'Step' button availabe in the screen
    - the new screen is 'step list overview'. now, place the cursor on selected variant avaialble on the screen, then from Menu >> Goto>> variant
    which gives the list of input values.
    hope this helps
    Thanks

  • My harddrive crashed and I don't know how to re-instate my itunes account where I have already bought music

    my harddrive crashed.  we just got another one and we need to know how to re-instate my itunes account where I have already purchased music

    First you need to verify whether the files themselves are gone or if it is just the library that doesn't see them.
    If the files are gone you may be able to get Apple to let you redownload them.

  • HT201303 want to know how to find out if items purchased were billed to my credit card or off my gift card

    Hi
    Need to know how to find out how items purchased have been paid for-via credit card or off gift card balance.
    Can't find the link.
    Thank you

    Unless you purchased a gift for someone else or something went wrong, all purchases would be charged first to a balance from a gift card. To confirm, view each individual item in your Purchase History:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2727
    It will show a "Store Credit Total" if the purchase was billed against a gift card balance.
    Regards.

    You need to contact iTunes support. We are users here just like you and would have no idea why it isn't working. At the bottom of the iTunes Store page in iTunes there is a contact link.

  • I have bought a new Mac Book Pro, and I need to know how I can move Aperture from my old Mac Book to the new one..

    I have bought a new Mac Book Pro, and I need to know how I can move Aperture from my old Mac Book to the new one..

    It begins with: F-285-NER-151-QBQ-and continues with 5 more 3 or 4 letters/numbers..
    Yes, that is the number. And what version of Aperture have you installed? The same version as on your old Mac?
    But it don´t work on my new Mac...
    In what way does it not work? Does it require you to enter a licence number for Aperture 2 as well? That will be necessary, if your serial number is an upgrade serial number. Then you will have to enter all previous numbers as well.
    Or does Aperture not accept the number as correct? Then check the spelling; some letters are easily confused like "I" and "1" and "O" and "0". Do not use the number pad to enter the numbers.
    See: Troubleshooting Professional Application Serial Numbers
