Will I lose all my emails if I uninstall Thunderbird with POP settings?

I have 7 email accounts set up on thunderbird and it looks like they all have POP settings. If I uninstall Thunderbird will it delete all the emails on these accounts?

If whatever new email client you go to does not import your TB messages, you can leave TB on your system and just use it to read the emails it has.
If you do this, it would help to set TB to not check for new messages: Go to Account Settings > Server Settings. Under each account untick all the boxes so TB never checks for messages. (Clicking the 'Get Messages' button will still get messages.)
You can also set TB Offline: Go to File > Offline > Work Offline.

  • Didn't upgrade to icloud will i lose all my email?

    So I couldn't afford Lion, and didn't move to icloud with my @me.com email address.  If I migrate over, will my emails be preserved or are they gone forever?

    Mobile Me is gone. If you left anything on it it's gone.

  • My apple id is an old email that isnt working. Do I need to change it to a working email? If so will I not lose all my songs I have paid for with the old id email?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Yes you should supply another address, no you won't lose your purchases.

  • If I create a new apple ID will I lose all the apps I have purchased with my original ID?

    If I create a new apple ID will I lose all the apps I have purchased with my original ID?

    I set up FaceTime and Messages on four different devices with only one Apple ID. I used the exact method that is described in the video that AnaMusic has provided to you in the link in her response above.  That method worked fine for my family, but you can create new Apple ID's just to use for FaceTime and Messages if you like. Many users prefer doing that as opposed to adding new email addresses.
    IMO - using unique email addresses (like in the video) makes sense, because we (my family) all have different email addresses anyway, and it was very simple to add each family members email address to both apps and remove my Apple ID email address as the contact address on each device.
    BTW .... if you are using your Apple ID on both devices - your phone number should be the number that is showing in the settings - not you daughter's. Did you set up the Apps with your Apple ID?

  • HT2731 if i set up a new apple id, will i lose all my previous downloads and purchases

    My daughter has been using my email as her apple id and we want her to get her own.  If she creates
    a new apple id, will she lose all her apps and music she has purchased?

    As the others stated purchases are inexorably linked to the Apple ID used to purchase them.
    An alternative solution is to create a new email address and Apple ID for yourself. The amount you have invested in purchases for your daughter vs. yourself will factor in this decision.
    If she doesn't want to use your email address, Apple IDs can be changed - not transferred, but changed to an email address not already associated with another Apple ID.
    One caveat to keep in mind is the age requirement for Apple IDs; thirteen years of age is the minimum. The only way for someone younger than that to legitimately have an Apple ID is for someone older to create one on her behalf.

  • If I re-install my podcast app with a different apple ID will I lose all the media from the older one ?

    I have the Podcast app installed on my iPhone with a lot if free media content downloaded.
    Now I need to re-install the app with a different apple ID.
    Will I lose all my content by doing do ?
    Please help. I don't want to lose anything.
    Please let me know if there is a work-around.

    You don't really want a new Apple Account (which is what you are describing) - all of your iTunes purchases will still be tied to the old Apple Account, all of your iCloud info will be under that old Account, all of your Messages will be under that old Account.
    Why not just to to Manage your Apple ID and edit your Apple ID to the new email you want it to be? You cannot edit an Apple ID using an Apple Domain email address (@me.com, @mac.com, @iCloud.com), but if your current ID is not using one of those type of email addresses, then changing it is the way you want to go. That way, everything stays with the Apple ID since it is the same Apple account.
    Just be sure to sign out of all apps on the device (iCloud, Messages, iTunes & App Store, FaceTime) before you change it.
    To EDIT your current Apple ID at Manage your Apple ID go to: Apple - My Apple ID

  • I'm changing my broadband provider - will I lose all my bookmarks?

    This may be a silly question, but will I lose all my Firefox bookmarks when I change my internet service? I currently have Time Warner digital service, but am moving out of state and will likely have Comcast as my future provider. Thanks.

    No, the bookmarks are all saved to the Firefox Profile on your comp, service provider will make no difference.
    Only thing you'll lose is any unsaved email and contacts if you used Time Warner's email service. Its always better to keep you email ISP agnostic by going with Google Mail, Yahoo mail, Mail.com etc so you don't have the hassle when switching ISPs in search of a better price.

  • Why do I lose all my emails in my ipad inbox when i log on to a new wifi network?

    Why do I lose all my emails in my inbox on my idpad when I log on to a new wifi account?

    No, changing to a different wifi network has no effect on emails.  However, if you disconnect your device from icloud (Settings>icloud) and then connect using a different ID (a different icloud account), then you will lose the emails.
    I provided info above for both a wifi connection and icloud connection, since you used the expression, "wifi account" and that is not a correct expression to use.  You connect to a wifi router possibly using a password, and connecting to icloud is a totally unrelated thing.

  • HT4972 I want to upgrade iOS, from 4.3.3. Will I lose all my apps?

    In order to upgrade the version I understand that I need to sync my iPad then update via iTunes. Will I lose all my apps or are these saved? What about apps I've bought?
    Thanks!

    If you have never synced the iPad to the computer that are intending to do the update by then this page may be of use : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141
    In terms of the actual update, connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases on iTunes 11) - that should copy all of your apps (purchases or free) and other iTunes purchases over (music, films etc). You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
    Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes (on iTunes 11 you can enable the left-hand sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button
    Updating to iOS 5+ : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
    An iPad 1 will update to iOS 5.1.1, and an iPad 2 and 3 to iOS 6.0.1 - they are the only versions that are 'signed' by Apple for them.

  • Will I lose all my purchased apps if I create a new Apple id. Thanks Colin.

    will I lose all my purchased apps if I create a new Apple id. Thanks Colin.

    You will not lose the apps but you will not be able to update them without using the old ID. If you got a new email address, you can simply change your Apple ID. There is no need to create a new one.

    Let's try a repair install of iTunes first.
    Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "iTunes" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "iTunes", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
    Can you launch your iTunes now?
