Why is installing dictionnaries in Thunderbird now a total mess?

It's not just me!!
Many many questions about installing additional (spelling) dictionaries have been posed by the "community". Installing additional (spelling) dictionaries used to be straightforward. Downloading dictionaries is still not a problem, but getting Thunderbird to take them into account is another story. Would it help if you indicated where they should be placed once they are downloaded?
In any event I eventually succeeded but I don't know why. Perhaps because I first downloaded the dictionaries to Firefox.
It's a pity that something that worked well is now a problem . . .

Using this as an example:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/german-dictionary
Clicking the 'Download' button will open a popup with installation instructions. Simply follow the instructions.
Not sure what your problem is. I don't think the way dictionaries are installed for Thunderbird has changed recently.

Why does my airport wifi icon now say "No Hardware installed" It has been working for ever

Why does my airport wifi icon now say "No Hardware installed" It has been working for ever

This message comes up when your Mac no longer recognizes that there is an operational AirPort card installed. This can be due to a number of reasons, including card or antenna cabling failure.
You can try either a PRAM or SMC reset. Which you choose will depend on the exact model of your Mac, but most likely, a visit to your local Apple Store is in order.

Just installed Firefox 18 and now when I hover over bookmarks they get blacked out, why?
Windows 7 ,Lenovo G580, 8Gb Mem, 4GB AMD radion graphics card, no other changes other than installing FF18

in this case the obvious other candidate would be an incompatible extension - can you disable them one-by-one to find out which one is interfering.
alternatively you could try to reset firefox (this will keep your bookmarks & passwords): [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]]

As of version 31, why is there still no Thunderbird option to insert current date and time in message that you are writing?

As of version 31, why is there still no Thunderbird option to QUICKLY insert current date and time in message that you are writing?
Literally have seen this very-much-needed -- and used -- option "promised" for three years now, and even if there's only one or two formats that could be used, at least the option is there.
It seems only way is to link a Macro and tool to Thunderbird and do it that way.

Where was it promised? A quick search of Bugzilla didn't find a functionality request bug report for it.
I assume you're aware that Mozilla stopped development about 2 years ago (just adds security/stability fixes and provides infrastructure) and all new features and bug fixes are now added by the community. They seem pretty tied up with bug fixes and reworking some hard to maintain components such as the MIME support.
Have you tried the Timestamp add-on at https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/thunderbird/addon/timestamp/ ? The version at AMO doesn't support versions later than 2.0 so you'd need to do something like install the disable add-on compatibility checks add-on at https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/thunderbird/addon/checkcompatibility/?src=ss, and ignore the warning message about Timestamp not being compatible. However, the author has a version at http://extensions.sanjer.nl/?page=tb_ts that supposedly supports up to Thunderbird 11.9.x so it should be "compatible by default as it supports version 5 or later and is not a binary add-on like Lightning or Enigmail.
"For Thunderbird use the context menu (right click popup) in the compose window, Ctrl+Shift+T or "Options | Insert timestamp" to inserts the date/time into a message"

HT1476 Why after installing i0s7.0 to my Apple 4 I phone I can no longer charge it with a hydro connection. It did it before this update

Why after installing i0S7 to my Apple i phone 4 I can no longer charge my phone by plugging it into electricity. I could before and now since this update it now longer works. How can I fix this?

Are you using a genuine Apple power adapter? iOS 7 will prevent certain non-Apple power adapters from operating due to safety concerns.
Counterfeit chargers are dangerous and potentially lethal.

Why can't I add narration now ?

I have added narration in the past on previous versions of Premiere elements and on Pre 10 but in the last 2 weeks I get an error when I click on the red record button I get a error message that my audio hardware selection does not have any input channels and I should go to Preferences, Audio Hardware to correct this.
I go to Preferences Audio hardware and and it shows Premiere elements WDM Sound and next box has ASIO setting. I click on these and I see no other possibilities or choices.
I still have Pre 8 loaded and the narration will not work now on it with the same error.
What could cause this after narration has always worked in the past?

Bill I believe I have answered your questions If not get
back to me and I will try. I am a Snowbird in a motorhome traveling in AZ. And
the internet comes and goes from time to time. And being a senior my computer
skills leave me at a disadvantage. I really appreciate you trying to help me.
Thank You

All drivers have been updated and rechecked for updates
today all were current.
When in project and I click (Edit, Preferences, Audio

sound. Then when I click ASIO settings a new window opens showing Logitech H

also tried it in Windows Movie Maker and it works OK.
In the ASIO box there is 3 other choices:
Speakers (High definition Audio Device)
Digital Audio (S/PDIF) (High definition Audio Device)
Laptop internal (High definition Audio Device)
I Have tried all 4 devices with the same results
When in project and clicking on Audio, Add narration, the (Record

mic the box lights up but no choices show.
In Control Panel, device mgr I do not see the Logitech h 150 listed
Narration was working till about 2 weeks ago. I do not
believe I have changed anything.
A bout 3 days ago I uninstalled Premiere el 10 and Photoshop El 10 and reinstalled both, I thought that may help but no change

Welcome to the forum. What is the make/model of your mic.? What is the connection type? What is the make/model of your sound card/chip? Do you have the latest driver for that sound card/chip installed? In a program, like Windows Recorder, does the mic. work fine? In Control Panel>System>Hardware>Device Manager, does your mic. show up with no errors, or warnings? What is the ASIO setting now? Good luck, and please let us know a bit more. Hunt

Installed photoshopcc; should I now remove CS6

installed photoshopcc should I now uninstall CS6? CC runs out of memory very quick after using for a couple of days. I have used the purge function, no help. thinking I might as well remove CS6 & it's Bridge function. 32bit 4Max ram

Ah yes, that's right, been awhile since I've worked with a 32 bit system. My mistake.
Honestly, if CC isn't running well on your system, why not continue using CS6? Anything in CC you must use? Or upgrade; worth it in my opinion, but not everyone's. As to the scratch disk, I'm assuming that's a disk drive? You're going to get much better performance out of an SSD than dedicated HDD. And if your OS/Photoshop isn't on an SSD, that's probably the single biggest performance gain per dollar spent you can get. Makes a significant difference, in my experience.

Maybe you can give us some more information as to what you actually purchased. Adobe Reader is free and can be downloaded at Adobe Reader Install for all versions

My iphoto is not opening anymore..a pop up says "it cannot be open b/c it's not supported on this architecture." Why? It worked fine until now.

a pop up says "it cannot be open b/c it's not supported on this architecture." Why? It worked fine until now.
What can I do so that I can open iphoto. I have so many photos in the application.

To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

My new iMac has recently had OSX Lion installed on it and now when I start the machine it looks like its updating something every time, and the wireless doesn't work. So I restart and everything is OK - until I have to start up again the next time - then I have to repeat this again! Any help appreciated.

I've been having the same issue, but have just discovered something on my own that hasn't been pointed out in any of the forums I've visited. In what I thought would be a vain attempt to help myself, I went to System Preferences, Users & Groups, and then clicked on Login Items. I discovered that one of the Items that was listed to open automatically upon login was iTunes Helper and that there was an exclamation point beside it indicating that it was incompatible. I simply deleted that item and now I don't have the situation you described and my wireless is connected. Hope this helps!

I had all my software, including my ‘Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Premium’ removed from my MacPro (OSX 10.10.2) by a Computer technician after I had inadvertently installed some malware.
Now I can’t reinstall my CS4 because the installer software wants me to identify the product from which I am upgrading, but mine isn’t on the list. The old product from which I am upgrading is called ‘Adobe Design Collection’. Furthermore, it has 4 serial numbers (one each for Photoshop, InDesign, Acrobat and Illustrator), not just one, as the installer requires.
I know this can be done, as I have had it working for a long time. Am I doing something wrong now?

Contact support be web chat and have them generate a working temporary serial/ challenge code for the install.

I have the 1st generation ipod touch i installed an update which now it is 3.1.3 version i was able to put my apps on it but when i want to use the apps it will not let me use them. What do i need to do?

Does it happen with the apps that came with the iPod?
Does it happen with all apps you have downloaded/installed?
Have you ried deleting the apps and redownload/install the apps? You will not be charged again if you are signed into the same iTunes account that originally purchased the apps.
Next would be to restore from backup
Last would be to restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
