Thunderbird V3 Menu location: Edit | Account Settings | account name | Server Settings not listed in edit menu?

Thunderbird v 3 help info is different than what actually is shown in the edit option list. Menu location: Edit | Account Settings | <account name> | Server Settings
Looking for ISP setting that instructs ISP(rr) to keep emails on serer until erased by user. This setting was in earlier versions of Thunderbird. This settings is used to download email to other user computers. When user's computer breaks down user has to reload email onto new setup.
Scenario is to go to Thunderbird V 3 Edit --> Account Settings and discover this option no longer exists. See earlier version where you can go to Account Settings and select email to be left on server for optional number of days or until erased by user.
Thanks for help,
Bob

This is my problem too. I don't usually need to edit settings but yahoo or gmail have had temporary problems with their smtp servers, when they do I can simply go to account settings and change from one to the other. Now when I open the account settings window and left or right click on ANY account or setting for an account in the left tree I get the error window with this message:
"The Local Directory path "C:\Users\Len\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\dlcdrtl6.default\Mail\Local Folders" is not suitable for message storage. Please choose another directory."
Clicking OK in the window brings up another message window with the same message as above:
"An account with this name already exists. Please enter a different account name."
I cannot exit the account settings box by clicking OK. I need to click cancel. This effectively makes it impossible to change any account settings. This worked a few months ago as I switched smtp servers when gmail had problems, now I'm screwed if I need to.
This is a problem with one of the new versions it should be marked critical as account settings need be configurable and I don't see any workaround like there is for pasting links.

Hi
+For some reason my Login doesn't work anymore.+
What exactly is not working? Is it be the username and password you're using? Possibly some other reason? Do you get the shake/jiggle at the login window? It really is a guessing game unless you give us more detail. Have you browsed the forum? I'm fairly certain others have posted with similar problems. When did it stop working? Was it a reboot of the server after an update that stalls at the login screen (your post alludes to this) or something else?
What is the Server configured as? Standard? WorkGroup? Advanced?
I can't see what the option or 'C' keys would do for you? If I understand you correctly by themselves they are not going to achieve much.

Settings for J2EE Server do not exist

Hi I get the message "Settings for J2EE Server do not exist"
Where can I set them and what has to be entered ?
Regards
sas

Hi Erdem,
I assume that you get this error message while configuring you web service in ECC.
To make the setting for the J2EE server, go to the WSADMIN transaction, click on "Go To" in the menu above and select "Administration Settings".
You can enter the full URL (upto the port) of your J2EE server in the following format:
http://<<full server name>>:<<port number>>
Hope this helps!

Romit

After doing some editing in Lightroom I want to continue the edit in CS 5 but Lightroom is not exporting the edited version, this has not happened before, what am I doing wrong please? anybody

After doing some editing in Lightroom I want to continue the edit in CS 5 but Lightroom is not exporting the edited version, this has not happened before, what am I doing wrong please? anybody

You should be getting an error message that PS CS5 requires a higher version of ACR with two options "render using Lightroom" or "open anyway". You should choose the first option. If you are not seeing the error message then go to your Lightroom prefrences >General Tab> under Prompts> select "Reset all warning dialogs", then try the edit in function again.

Yahoo Account Verification fails - imap server settings?

I'm trying to connect my yahoo account and I I get this error:
Cannot Get Mail
The user name or password for "imap.apple.mail.yahoo.com" is incorrect.
Any idea how I can fix this? I thought the setup was automatic. I don't see a place to set this stuff. Please help. Thanks!

Hello.
Some of the steps below may help
1. Delete any Yahoo accounts off iPhone
2. Settings - General - Reset - Reset Network Settings - Agree - iPhone Reboots
3. Now add your Yahoo account back into iPhone
*If it does not work proceed below.
-Repeat steps 1 and 2. And then for the Yahoo account change the password to a new password. All lowercase letters. And numbers if you want. Then confirm new password works by logging onto Webmail.
Now try adding account back into iPhone.
In very rare occasions I have read that restoring iPhone will sometimes allow an email account to be added again.

Lion Clients 10.7.4 show network accounts are unavailable and server is not responding when binding to Snow Leopard server 10.6.8

Hello,
I am running Snow Leopard Server 10.6.8 and my clients are Lion 10.7.4. While testing I had no issues binding 10.7.4 to our 10.6.8 server's OD. I created a 10.7.4 image to push to all of our machines and in the beginning of last week I was able to push the image and get the machines to bind with OD and apply preferences on these machines through workgroup manager. Towards the end of the week though this stopped working. Now any time I bind a 10.7.4 client to OD it allows me to perform an authenticated bind and the machine shows up in workgroup manager but immediatley after binding the client the status jelly next to the OD server in the directory list is red and says "This server is not responding". If I reboot the client I get a notification that "Network accounts are unavailable" at the login screen. My preferences from workgroup manager are also not applying, which is my main concern because without workgroup manager my mac server is somewhat pointless as we use it for very little else.
I've since tried to bind a snow leopard machine (10.6.8) and this still is working with a green status jelly. I've also built a lion machine from scratch, updated to the 10.7.4 combined update and am still getting the same issue where it shows the server is not responding when binding to OD. I then applied the subsiquent OS update after the 10.7.4 combined update but the problem still persists.
Is anyone else having this issue? Any help would help me keep my sanity.
Thanks,
Dane

Have you had any luck finding a solution to this? The only thing I have found was to unbind and then bind without authentication. Any help with progress on your end would be appreciated!
Nick.

ICloud not listed in Edit smpt in Mail preferences

Hi all-I have been having issues with Mail lately. I am running Mavericks (latest version) and Mail is 7.3.
First it keeps asking me for my password. I have lost count the number of times I have reentered it! But it keeps on asking. I enter the password in the popup window that says the iCloud password is incorrect. Sometimes it accepts it and the mail downloads but other times it doesn't.
The other issue is that in Mail Preferences if I go to Edit smpt settings iCloud is not listed. Comcast is but not iCloud. It's listed on the first screen of Mail Preferences.
The other question I have is the Incoming Mail Server-it says (in faint letters, not highlighted) p01-imap.mail.me.com. Is this what it should say? Out going is iCloud (iCloud). No TLS Certificate. Under the Advanced tab it says authentication if Password. Again, iCloud is not listed on this screen.
I wasn't aware that I changed anything. I did do the 2 step verification for iCloud today but the password issue has been going on for over a week. Looking forward to getting this mess straightened out! Judy

Back up all data before proceeding.
Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select
          Change Settings for Keychain "login"
In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
From the menu bar, select
          Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
If the box marked
          Keep login keychain unlocked
is not checked, check it.
Select
          Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.

When I download a jpg picture to Photoshop Elements Editor the file is stored in Documents & Settings/My Name/Local Settings/Temp but I cannot find this location on my computer.

The pictures are attached to e-mail messages. I can get as far as Documents and Settings and my name but there is no Local Settings folder shown. Using MS search with the name of the file gives nothing. I use Windows XP and Mozilla Firefox. The file appears in Photoshop Elements and I can save it as a psd file but I cannot find either the jpg or the psd files to move them into My Pictures.

The Local Settings folder is a hidden folder.
(1) If the file appears in the Downloads manager (Tools menu or Ctrl+j), you can right-click it and use Open Containing Folder to get directly to it.
(2) To be able to see hidden folders on Windows XP in general, try this:
Open My Computer or Windows Explorer
Tools > Folder Options > View tab
Scroll down and look for the checkbox regarding hidden files and folders and unhide them.
Hopefully this will resolve the issue. Any luck?
(3) By the way, you may be able to save the images from the email message to a more convenient location by right-clicking the links and using Save Link As. (Before you open them for editing.)

Two mail accounts with same name and SSL not allowed?!

Dear Common Wisdom:
I have two accounts in my Mail program with the same web host. That means the outgoing mail server has the same name.
If I put on SSL, though, it is not allowed to save two servers with the same name in two different accounts.
Can I get around this and still use SSL for both accounts?
Thanks!
Kostas

Each domain is expected to refer to its own unique database schema. Same SOA schema should not be shared by multiple SOA clusters/domains. It is technically possible though, I suppose, and still can run fine any one SOA environment at any given time with the other SOA environments/domains (sharing the same SOA schema) shutdown. It is not the general/recommended practice to share SOA schema across domains and there could be potential implications and unexpected behavior, particularly when the SOA environments pointing to the same schema are all running at a time.

CS6 page settings using Property inspector will not save [subject edited by moderator]

I have a student who is working on building a webpage using a CSS template. They are trying to change their page settings (for example, the color of their hyperlinks) using the menu at the bottom of the page. However, these settings will not save. If anyone can give me an idea of how to move forward, I would appreciate it. Thank you
