Why don't text shortcuts don't work in OS X for Thunderbird

In Mail and other apps, on my Mac Book Pro, as well as my iPad, I set up and can use text shortcuts such as typing 'in2' and it expanding to 'I'll be there in 2'. It even works in Outlook for Mac, which I really don't care for. Why doesn't it work for Thunderbird? I really like the look and feel of Thunderbird, but this is a deal breaker for me. I use a lot of repetitive phrases.
Thank you.

Try this add-on.

  • Why don't I see an option for lightroom?

    Why don't I see an option for lightroom? I have downloaded creative cloud and have photoshop option, but I don't see LR, which I expected to install.
    Thanks!

    Hi Peggyh,
    If you're a paying Creative Cloud member, you may not see Lightroom in the Creative Cloud if your computer doesn't meet the minimum system requirements. Check to make sure that your system meets the http://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/system-requirements-lightroom.html

  • I am trying to set up a co-worker's email on her iPhone and I don't know what her password for Thunderbird is and neither does she. Can I get the password?

    I am trying to set up a co-worker's email on her iPhone and I don't know what her password for Thunderbird is and neither does she. Can I get the password somehow, or what do you recommend?

    There is no password to Thunderbird. The password you need is to the email account. Contact the email provider for password reset.

  • Why do my text messages on my 4s take 10 minutes for friends to get them?

    why do my text messages on my 4s take 10 minutes for some friends to get them?

    If you are referring to actual SMS messages and not iMessages, then you would need to take that up with your carrier. SMS is a carrier function, which uses the cellular network and they maintain it. You would need to troubleshoot with them.

  • Why States don't work on Tablet view for text frames over background image?

    I have Macbook Pro with Top config on top S/W everything updated.
    Using Muse.
    Tablet view site.
    Simple text frames buttons with states over a full width background image - DON'T WORK!
    The text frame buttons are in TOP layer.
    Visible but do not respond to to any touch. UNLESS I delete the background image.
    Can't figure it out for days.
    Please help.
    Thanks
    Eli @

    TO MUSE STAFF!!!!
    I Found a major bug that needs to be fixed:
    In Tablet view:
    A linked text frame or state button has to be in the top layer to respond to states.
    If a composition menu is opening up and covering the button when triggered - THE BUTTON WILL NOT RESPOND EVEN IF THE COMPOSITION IS CLOSED!!!
    Only if the button is ARRANGED ABOVE the composition in the layer and becomes the absolute TOP OBJECT in the layer - ONLY THEN it will respond.
    PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU GOT IT.
    I have tested it on a few projects and the bug is consistent.

    Thanks for fixing it in the near future

  • Why did the keyboard shortcuts just stop working?

    I'm a little bit annoyed.  I had several shortcuts set on my phone that I used often (my email address, phone number, things like that) and now they just don't work AT ALL.  I've looked up some quick fixes, but none of them work. I take that back, the "add a new one and delete it" suggestion worked once, but the next day it stopped working. I just hope Apple is aware of this issue and it's fixed with the next update.

  • Why don't Adobe have a contact for customer services - the "chat' person ignored this question an impressive 5 times .

    Anyone else tried? Elements just does not work properly on Macs and when I asked for help, I was told that help isn't available for my old version so I'd have to upgrade. Like an idiot, I eventually did and found the new version even worse. I looked for customer service contact and  ..... nothing. Only option was for their "chat" - so asked them - told there was no email, I couldn't get a refund as I had bought it from Amazon!  person was unbelievably unhelpful and wouldn't answer any questions, despite being repeated many times. 
    Anyone got any idea how to complain to Adobe - or should I just do what everyone else does and download full photoshop illegally?

    We're just other customers like you, so your guess about why adobe does anything is just as good any of ours would be.
    However, PSE works fine on macs for a great many people, so if you could explain the problem maybe someone here could help you.

  • Text shortcuts no longer work in iOS6

    I have erased and renetered my shortcuts to see if that would do it and it still doesnt. Does anyone have a solution for this, or am I doing something wrong? Shortscuts are enabled as far as I can tell, my list is populated and it just doesnt registered in SMS, EMAIL, or NOTES so far.
    Thanks

    As another note, I hope they include the option to remove Siri from the keyboard soon! I like the use of Siri, but I don't like the stupid mic button on the keyboard, makes hitting the numbers frustrating not to mention the annoying chime noise it makes regardless of whether your phone is on silent or not!

  • Why don't Apple sell 2gb modules for MBP?

    I'm confused, I tried to purchase a 2gb module from Apple this morning and they tell me they are not available, and they don't know why?
    any ideas anyone?
    I think I need a :
    Form SO-DIMM (200-pin) Speed PC2-5300 - DDR2-667
    Crucial are showing them, just wondering if there are any issues I should know about?

    Actually the MBP does come with a dual-channel memory bandwidth if the SODIMMs are matched. This is one issue I for one will have to eat my words on!
    It's specified in the Intel documentation for the 945PM chipset that's used in the MBP as well as in this Apple document…
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303553
    However, as you mention, the primary benefit of this is a much improved GPU performance for those systems with the GMA950 such as the MacBook and Mac mini where the imapct is between 6% and 9%.
    Given Apple give this such a low priority, shown by how little it's mentioned for the MBP, the benefit probably isn't great. Let's facce it, there's only so much memory intensive operations you can do within 2GB without the bottlenecks of the processor or hard drive bandwidths getting in the way.

  • Why do some keyboard shortcuts just stop working?

    Since upgrading to Lion, some of my keyboard shortcuts - especially one for Mail - just stops working now and then and the only thing I can figure out to fix it is to restart the macbook.
    The main one I've had trouble with is ⌘+ enter to send a message.
    It seems (unreal, I know) that certain messages disable it in replies.
    Any other way you can think of to reset the keystroke other than restarting?
    Thanks

    Hi there
    Sounds like the project has somehow become corrupt. You may need to create a new project and copy/paste slides. You may also find that this will transfer over the issue. So it could be limited to a specific slide or even a single object on a slide.
