Thunderbird seems to stay open even after I close it. Then I have to restart to get it to work.

I close Thunderbird using the X in the upper right hand corner. Later, I wish to open it, but I get a message telling me that TB is still open and that I must restart to get it open again. Can someone help with this issue? Maybe I am closing it incorrectly?

Many thanks, Finitarry. You have solved my problem. Right clicking the icon in the taskbar did not give me the Exit option, but the Menu did! :-)

  • Why does the print cue window stay open even after job is done?

    In Tiger, and every other version of OSX I have any recollection of using, the printer window opens to display what's in the cue when you select to print something. Once printing is done, this cue closes. Since installing Leopard, everytime we print from our iMac, MacBook or MBP, the print cue window stays open indefinitely after the job is done, requiring a manual closing of the window. I can't for the life of me fathom what benefit this brings or who would want this. Is this part of Leopard or a problem with our install? Something I can turn off?

    If you control-click (or right click) on the open printer queue in the Dock you can choose to have it auto close once the spool file is sent.
    As to why this is necessary in Leopard, well I haven't seen a good enough answer to date...

  • Chat window stays open even after i log off

    When ever i log off with a chat window open...it stays open when i log back on. Is it possible to not do that, Leopard never did that???

    Hi Carolyn and Lud@,
    I must admit I would have suggested that as well.
    If the iChat 4 setting for Remembering Chats had been set there is nothing in iChat 5 to reset it.
    In Theory clearing the window and Quitting iChat should delete the item from the .plist
    Deleting the said .plist and restarting iChat would have caused iChat to recreate the .plist from Defaults and the Remember Chats Across Launch item would not be there.
    What we could do with knowing now is, does the Window have any info at the top as to who and/or what room the chat is associated with ?
    It may pay to check the File Menu of iChat to Check if this "Chat" that keeps popping up is in the Recents lists.

  • Gmail stays open even after closing ff in private browsing

    Gmail sign in is home page, I log in each time ("Remember Password" NEVER set for anything) then close browser (do not log out). When I reopen browser gmail is still open, not at the sign in home page as it should be. Before the latest upgrade to FF, all worked correctly, even it I didn't log out, it would reopen to my sign in page.
    FF set to automatically start in private browsing. Clear history settings all checked. Remember Passwords not checked. I have also tried setting History to never member anything, accept cookies from sites including 3rd part cookies until I close FF, and clear history (with all boxes checked in Settings) when I close FF-still opens to my email, not to the my mail sign in page.
    Any clues?

    naah, looks like its problem of firefox, i removed the plugin and tried downloading using the normal download winodw of firefox but same problem, this time it starts picking up item from the download window and continues to download

  • Menu "Application" Stays open even after "Exit"

    Open the menu, click Exit (bottom right) -  it will take you back to the Home Screen. Do a Show Open Applications. The Menu is still running.
    Open the menu, click Options (bottom left) and then Exit -  it will take you back to the Home Screen. Do a Show Open Applications. The Menu is not shown as running.
    So the Exit command from the Options menu is not same as the direct Exit. Is this a Bug!

    yeah, I noticed this too..also noticed that when you exit e-mails wiht the right exit button it returns you to home screen but the application still runs in backround, but when you exit throught the options than it really exits

    Have you run the iPhoto Library Upgrader? You need to direct it to the location of your old iPhoto Library by clicking the "Choose Library" button in the lower right corner of the panel you are seeing when the upgrade starts.

  • Spell Check Box stays up even after sending mail.

    Lion truly has some bugs. More annoyances, which is what bugs are I guess. I noticed that in Mail now, after you hit send and cycle through all the spell check changes, the spell check box remains open, even after you've sent the email off. I know it's just one click to close it, but it makes you think the mail didn't get sent. It's so more official when everything just closes up, you know? Am I being too picky here?

    yep same here, my spell check box stays open - any fixes?

    my itunes keeps opening on its own without me opening it, it will happen again and again even after i close it. how do i fix it to make it stop doing this as it is extreemely annoying

    If it is doing it while your device is plugged in, it is because it is set to automatically sync. Please go to: Preferences>Devices, and select the option to "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically." Also, I hate to be "that guy", but you spelt extremely wrong. Just a pro tip.

    I am not able to open my ipad when forgot password and made several attempts to open it .The message " iPAD is disabled..Connect to itunes" appers.It is not opening even after i changed the password.Need support.

    Try and force iPad into Recovery Mode:
    1. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
    2. Connect USB cable to computer, leave the other end alone
    3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
    5. Release the Home button
    6. Open iTune
    7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
    8. Use iTune to restore iPad
    Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad
