Why does my T-Bird keep showing read messages as 'unread' even after recatagorizing them repeatedly?

Running T-Bird 24.4.0 on Win 7 PC.
I have several 'bugs' to address.
1) Although I've transferred thousands of old e-mails to 'Achieves', have 'compacted' every file repeatedly [see: Unable to write the email to the mailbox'], I still get the 'Unable to write...' error message requiring me to <Enter> for each individual message to download the bulk of my e-mail from my Yahoo!' mailbox.
2) Regardless of how many times I've recategorized my saved e-mail to 'read', they continue to come up, randomly, as 'unread' every time I open T-Bird.
3) Regardless of how often I select <View>, <Sort by>, <Descending>, my mail keeps being displayed in 'Ascending' order.
I have many thousands (10 yrs +) of saved e-mail in my system (my T-Bird backup folder is 11.6 GB).
Any and all replies will be much appreciated.

Would doubt CCleaner involved. Doesn't run continuously and I only run it about once a month. Tried 'repair state' didn't see any changes. Have been fighting the 'Unable to write...' issue over a year. Have read many pages regarding it (http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=39&t=1760715

I would guess it is that you do not have enough space. For what, I have no idea, as you have done little to explain your issue.

Why does "memory installed" window keep showing up every restart?

I have tried repairing permissions and resetting the PRAM and still the "Memory is installed in the correct slots" notifier window keeps popping up on every restart. Can anyone help me get rid of the bugger?

I am logged in as system admin (me) and the Directory Utility now shows me as 'Authenticated as Root'
You do not log in with your own account name. You log in using the account name root with the password you created for root according to that apple article. You didn't read or missed the portion of that article which says:
How to log in as root
Use these steps for Mac OS X v10.2 or later
   1. If you are logged in, choose Log Out from the Apple menu.
   2. If you are logging in from a list of usernames with pictures, click Other.
   3. In the Name field, type: root
   4. In the Password field, type the password you defined in the steps above.
Note step 3.

Why does my macbook pro keep showing me the force quit screen and states that there is not enough memory? The activity monitor shows that there is plenty of memory available.

The message displayed in the Force Quit Applications window says "Your Mac OS X startup disk has no more space available for application memory. The only applications that I have open are Safari and Finder and I am simply reading a discussion board.

It would appear that this error can be caused by an excessive system demand for swap space that exceeds the maximum allocation. Just try restarting the computer.
I found a possible solution for finding the cause of the error. Open Activity Monitor. Be sure you have the Real Memory column showing and the Processes dropdown menu set to All Processes. Select the Real Mem column and sort in descending order. Leave Activity Monitor open. The next time the error appears the application at the top of the column is the one causing the error.

Why does find my iphone keep showing inaccurate locations

when trying to locate my iphone 3g from my computer windows 7 it keeps giving me the incorrect locations and it hits back often on the same location throughout the day. Often times when i press the refresh button it shows my phone to be in one place and then instantly moves it back to another place. Also on Google's Location History it shows the exact points of location to be the same as Find my iphone locations. Is it a glich or is my iphone really going to these places?

Hi lissadn,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. This article covers the factors involved in location accuracy and some suggestions for improving it:
iOS 7: Understanding Location Services
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5594
About location precision or accuracy
Depending on your device and available services, Location Services uses a combination of cellular, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GPS to determine your location. If you're not within a clear line of sight to GPS satellites, your device can determine your location using crowd-sourced Wi-Fi5 and cell tower locations or iBeacons.
Apps that can show your location on the screen, including Maps, indicate your current (approximate) location using a blue marker. If your location can’t be determined precisely, a blue circle also appears around the marker. The size of the circle shows how precisely your location can be determined—the smaller the circle, the greater the precision.
Note: When Location Services is active, a purple or gray arrow icon appears in the status bar.
Maps, directions, and location-based apps depend on data services. These data services are subject to change and may not be available in all geographic areas, resulting in maps, directions, or location-based information that may be unavailable, inaccurate, or incomplete. Compare the information provided on the device to your surroundings and defer to posted signs to resolve any discrepancies.
Improving GPS accuracy2,4
GPS accuracy varies depending on the number of visible GPS satellites. Locating all visible satellites can take several minutes, with accuracy gradually increasing over time. Use these tips to improve GPS accuracy:
Ensure the date, time, and time zone are correctly set on the device in Settings > General > Date & Time. If possible, use Set Automatically.
Important: Incorrect settings on your computer can sync to your device. Verify the date, time, and time zone on any computer that syncs with your device.
Restart your device.
Verify that you have a cellular or Wi-Fi network connection. This allows the Assisted GPS (A-GPS) on the device to locate visible GPS satellites faster, in addition to providing initial location information using the Wi-Fi or cellular networks.
Note: Microcells (sometimes called Femtocells) aren't supported with Location Services.
Maintain a clear view of the horizon in several directions. Keep in mind that walls, vehicle roofs, tall buildings, mountains, and other obstructions can block line of sight to GPS satellites. When this occurs, your device will automatically use Wi-Fi or cellular networks to determine your position until the GPS satellites are visible again.
Crowd-sourced Wi-Fi and cellular Location Services
If Location Services is on, your device will periodically send the geo-tagged locations of nearby Wi-Fi hotspots and cell towers in an anonymous and encrypted form to Apple to augment Apple's crowd-sourced database of Wi-Fi hotspot and cell tower locations. In addition, if you're traveling (for example, in a car) and Location Services is on, a GPS-enabled iOS device will also periodically send GPS locations and travel speed information in an anonymous and encrypted form to Apple to be used for building up Apple's crowd-sourced road traffic database. The crowd-sourced location data gathered by Apple doesn't personally identify you.
Cheers,

HT4623 why does my iphone 4 keep showing no service in the top left corner ?

have tried restoring it many times, also changing micro sims of different networks and same result....this happened after software update date and got a message through itunes saying ...congratulations your phone has been unlocked !!

Was the phone hacked to unlock it before you performed the restore and got it unlocked?

Why does the mute sign keep showing up when volume is up and phone not on vibrate?

I can't figure out what the ek942a3cc9 is. Is this a virus?
Highly unlikely.
The likeliest explanation is that it's a Remembrance of Things Past… That is, it's a server on a network to which you connected at some time in the past -- at the office, at Starbucks, at the airport, whatever. The OS kept it in a cache just in case you might re-connect. If you don't switch networks often, it can stay there for some time.
In the Sidebar, do you see an Eject button (⏏) to its right? If yes, click it, and it shouldn't re-appear. It might also help to go to Finder > Connect to Server… and, from the Recent Servers menu (identified by a clock icon), choose Clear Recent Servers…

A third party app keeps showing in my podcast app even after restoring as a new phone. Why?

A third party app that I've used for a long time through iTunes to download a specific podcast not available through the iTunes store has gotten a bit messed up. I've used this for 3+ years with no problem. Lately though the name of the podcast will show up as an empty folder even though I've downloaded and synced it up. The episodes may stay for about 24 hours but then the app disappears from inside of iTunes and all the episodes are deleted. I've removed the app, reinstalled it, etc., and the same thing happens. I restored the phone from a back up, same problem. I even set the phone up as new and this same empty folder was on the iPhone immediately. That I don't understand...how is that even possible?
I'm not sure why wiping the phone and setting up as new made the folder appear. Not sure what role, if any, iCloud plays in seeing this sort of app?
Thanks.

I solved this through a combo of reinstalling the app and removing it but the real kicker is to make sure to go into the iPhone if you have any phantom podcasts and go to settings/general/usage/manage storage and see what is there for podcasts. Delete it from this location to start over. I found this file was larger than justified compared to what was in the podcast folder. Somehow this had gotten corrupted.
I'm sharing in case others need a solution. Of course, the one respondent on here already knew this info so this is for all the other folks out there.

Did you recently update your iOS version or restore your iPhone?
Do you have the app Cydia on your iPhone?

Why does my wireless keyboard keep shutting off?

Why does my wireless keyboard keep shutting off?
It is not the batteries.

More experience leads me to believe the problem is with the new iMac. If I get the network going by turning AirPort Extreme power off, then on, I see a good signal at my iMac. Experience shows the network drops off after several hours. But yesterday I turned the iMac off, and the network remainded up (I could see it on my iPhone and iPad) throughout the night. That's the first time that has happened since I got the new iMac. Never had this issue with the old machine. I transferred all file to the new machine from a Time Machine backup that was up-to-date. Am working with Apple support. They had me do a re-boot of the AirPort and will call back tomorrow AM to learn it did not solve the problem, but turning off the iMac does. Darn.

Why does my iPad mini keep shutting off every two seconds?

Why does my iPad mini keep shutting off every two seconds?

I doubt that anyone here can answer that question with any validity...
That being said, try to reset the device:
*Device reset*
Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

I'm guessing it's more likely a problem with your carrier's 3G network in the area. You shouldn't have to modify any settings for 3G to work consistently on a supported carrier.
You can try turning off 3G data, with will switch over to Edge if it exists. If it does, it will be much slower than 3G, but I suppose faster than 0 is better than 0.
I'd contact your carrier about it.

why does my ipod touch keep charging when im not charging it ex. 77% 78% help me please

All batteries recover a bit when they sit for a little while. Also most iPod battery apps register only in 5% increments, because it is hard to really be accurate to the single percent. Just because yours shows in 1% increments does not mean it is actually accurate to that level.
