Windows vista, I did a reinstall but only the latest emails appear, how do I get the remainder in my inbox?

The reason I reinstalled Thunderbird was, because I read somewhere in the community forums that my problem might be solved. The original problem was computer related, I accidentally erased all network protocols on my wife's Japanese PC and we had no internet connection for sometime. When I finally unravelled the connection dilemma and got things working the wife was in shock because her inbox was empty. I reassured her that the emails resided outside the programme. Hence the try at reinstalling Thunderbird. Well, I didn't get the result I was hoping for. The reinstall only fetched the messages that were waiting on the server. Now I'm not sure of what exactly the problem is. But I'm confident it is solvable but can I do it? Am I able?
Thanks for reading this far.

According to your Question Description, you used POP3 mail in Thunderbird. If you didn't remove the OLD Thunderbird Profile, you can get the data.

  • Why did an iBook purchase only download one chapter and how do I get the rest of the book?

    Why did an iBook purchase only download the first chapter?What can I do about this?

    is it possible you only downloaded the sample? the cover image for the book will have the word Sample in a red banner across one of the corners.
    if you actually purchased the book and only received one chapter, then there should be a link in the email that iTunes sent you to dispute the purchase.

    Go into Settings>Messages>Send and Receive and make sure that your phone number is checked and iMessage reads as activated. Remove the checkmark from the email address and make sure that only the phone number if checked. It should appear grayed out, but should still have a checkmark. If the phone number does not have a checkmark, then turn off iMessage, wait a few moments and then turn iMessage back on and make sure that it activates.

  • All my email has disappeared from iCloud.  I did not delete it, and now it's working again, but only from 28 August 2013.  What happened to my old emails? How do I get them back? thanks

    Have you checked whether the emails are visible at http://icloud.com ? If they are, it's a problem between your Mac and the website; sign out in System Preferences>iCloud and sign back in again.
    If they aren't, then it's a server problem and you need to contact Support. If you currently happen to have AppleCare, either because you recently bought Apple hardware or have paid to extend the inititial period, you can contact them here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/
    You will need the serial number of the covered hardware.
    If you are not covered by AppleCare, then - in common with other free email services - there is no free support and you may be asked to pay a fee; if so you should argue that this is a problem they've caused (it's not the first time, by the way) and you shouldn't be charged.

  • Updated to iOS 7, but only the first page of my app buttons stayed.  How can I get them back?

    I just updated to iOS 7, but only the first page of my app buttons stayed.  How can I get them back?  And how do I show the Apple Music and Weather app- I can find them in spotlight, but there isn't an app button for them.

    Are you sure you don't see them when you swipe to the left?
    I actually had only one icon showing on the second page .... and then all of the rest showed up on pages 3, 4, etc.
    The Apple Music app is a red box with a white note
    Weather app is a blue box with a white cloud and yellow sun
    Did you try resetting or restarting the device?

    Sorry this solution is late but I just got off of the phone with Apple support and this worked. 
    Open iTunes
    Connect your iPhone and keep it connected during this entire process.
    In the iTunes menu at the very top (File, Edit, View) choose STORE> Sign in and sign into your iTunes account.
    Once this is complete look at the upper right corner of iTunes and you will see an iPhone and Store button, cick STORE.  Now you will be in the iTunes store where you see the advertisements of the various albums, songs etc.  Look on your upper left of the window for your itunes account name and in the black band next to your iTunes account name, you will see a House icon, then Music, Movies, TV Shows etc.
    Make sure the HOUSE icon is selected.
    Stay on this screen in iTunes and on the lower RIGHT, you will see an area that says- QUICK LINKS.  In that area click - Purchased
    After you do this you will be transported to another area of iTunes.  Here there will be a menu across the top- Music, Movies, TV Shows, Apps, Books are the choices. 
    Choose APPS and you will see the apps that you have purchased.  You will also see the apps that didn't download to your phone. 
    Find the apps that didn't download and click the cloud next to their name.  Doing this will download the chosen apps to the computer you are on. 
    Once you have downloaded the apps in question, in the upper right corner click LIBRARY.
    Now you should see the button that says iPhone because your phone is still plugged in.  Click the iPhone button and then click SYNC on the lower right to sync your iPhone.  
    The apps you downloaded will now be on your phone.
    Sorry for the long instructions but this is what works.

  • I uninstalled and reinstalled but at the end of installation there were erros.  See attached screen shot.  I now cannot open the application.  error code 10810 comes up when I try to open.

    I could not update photoshop CS6 and Jeff from forum advised unistalling and reinstalling (Tk93580659). Mac OSX. In real trouble, as suggested I uninstalled and reinstalled but at the end of installation there were errors.  See attached screen shot.  Now I cannot open the application.  Error code 10810 comes up when I try to open (see 2nd screenshot).  Please help.  I have now lost photoshop altogether whereas previous at least I still could use it but could not update.  Thank you for any help to instal successfully.  Dr Koh

    Still looking for a solution to specific installation errors (see screeshot) referring to "Language Pack installation failure":
    ERROR: DW050: The following payload errors were found during install:
    ERROR: DW050: - Adobe Photoshop CS6 Core: Failed due to Language Pack installation failure
    ERROR: DW050: - Adobe Photoshop CS6 International English Language Pack_AdobePhotoshop13-en_GB: Install failed
    Unfortunately previous advice of using CCS cleaner tool, and suggestions from links for 1) "exit code 6 and 7" and 2) "Troubleshoot instal logs" did not work at all. So I am desparate to fix this because I have spent a lot of money purchasing Photoshop CS6 but have no functioning program. Surely Adobe can help solve this problem with installing, or else it means a lot of money spent on Photoshop CS6 for nothing. I am appealing directly to Adobe to help because I have come to the end of my options. I thank the forum for their suggestions but so far the solution for this specific "Language Pack installation failure" problem is missing. Thank you.

  • Using Sansung S3, not yet possible to share all the open tabs (using NFC) with another NFC phone. But only the one main tab I am currently browsing is possible.

    Using Sansung S3, Android 4.1.2, Firefox 24.0; not yet possible to share all the open tabs (using NFC) with another NFC phone. But only the one main tab I am currently browsing is possible to share. Is this the feature of current NFC feature of Firefox?
    If so, when will there be feature to share all the tabs?
    Thanks.

    I'm not sure if we will implement this. Sharing all the tabs you have open have many more security and privacy issues. Someone forgets that they had a tab open they did not want to share or miss-clicks on the share all option.
    We are looking into better ways to share tabs with devices that are nearby. Especially if they are on the same WiFi network.

  • Live SWF video Plays Locally But Only The Skin is Visible Remotely.

    Hi Guys,
    I have tested other embedded videos and they will play remotely so I know the hosting site is working.   Can anyone please look and tell me what I can try to make the vid work?   Currently, the live video will play locally and remotely from this computer where all the files are stored but only the skin is visible on any other remote computer's web browser.
    I will post any info you ask for.   I have been working on this forever.   Please, someone who is good at this help me?
    Here are my files look (I can't figure out how to blow this up larger - can you see it?):
    I will try whatever you suggest.
    Chris
     P.S.   My live video is being broadcast by Adobe Flash Media Encoder to Adobe Flash Media Server 4 and inserted into Dreamweaver. Dreamweaver Support watched me re-create the Flash file and import into Dreamweaver and we looked at it for hours together. In the end, they suggested I post here because we could not figure it out / it is not supported. Ideas?   Can I provide any other helpful info?P.S.  The Adobe Dreamweaver Tech Support said to post here and that the Expertise Team (you I suppose) would figure it out.  I am running Windows 7 64-bit OS.

    According to you since the stream published by FMLE to FMS is playing fine on the other players even remotely, it doesn't look like FMS problem.
    But could you please eloborate the logic you are using in your player?

  • I reinstall the Yosemite due to the wifi issue, when finished, the iMovie was not installed, I try to download it from app store, but it's not free. How can I get iMovie back?

    I'm using a mid 2014 13" rmbp. I reinstall the Yosemite due to the wifi issue, when finished, the iMovie was not installed, I try to download it from app store, but it's not free. How can I get iMovie back?

    It's something to do with the main user account (not iTunes account) on my Mac because I logged in with another account and it downloaded fine, I installed it on the HDD and even though the date in App Store was 16th October 2014, it is the full installer of 10.10.2.
    To try to resolve this problem, I have copied the installer app elsewhere and deleted it but App Store still will not allow me to download it with my main user account yet just allowed me to update iTunes.
    I had a brainwave last night that it might have been related to me changing the default downloads folder to one not on my boot drive (to save disk space on my main boot drive) but having changed it back, tried again, rebooted and tried yet again, deleted my App Store preferences. nothing has worked.

  • I have 528 contacts on my phone, but only 290 on my Icloud how can i move the rest over from my phone to my Icloud nothing is working

    I have 528 contacts on my phone, but only 290 on my Icloud how can i move the rest over from my phone to my Icloud nothing is working

    Go to Settings>iCloud, turn Contacts to Off, choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (they will still be in iCloud).
    Download the app My Contacts Backup to your phone.  Use this app to backup the remaining contacts on your phone (from your exchange account) as a vCard attachment to an email that you send to yourself.  Confirm that you have received the email on your phone.
    Go to Settings>iCloud and turn Contacts back to On.
    Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Contacts section), set this to iCloud.  (This will cause new contacts added to your phone to be added to the iCloud account.)
    Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...tap your exchange account and turn off contacts syncing (otherwise you will end up with duplicates on your phone).
    Open the My Contacts Backup email and tap the attachment to import the contacts from your exchange account back to your phone.  They will be added to iCloud and appear on icloud.com and any other devices syncing contacts with your account.
