I have also problems with thunderbird 1.5.0.2 portable. I get the message that the registry file cannot be imported. Error by access to the registry. The message file target is: G:\PortasbleThunderbird\Data\registry\thunderbird_portable.reg

Error Initializing Enigmail Service 574632

Submitted by ylansegal on June 19, 2006 - 10:27am

I have a problem with PortableThunderbird + Gpg: There is an Enigmail initialization error that I can't get around.

Here are the steps that I took:

- ed PortableThunderbird + Gpg 1.5.0.2 in zip format.
- Extracted contents to hard drive
- Executed PortableThunderbird.exe
- Gpg prompted for a new creation. I tried two different things: I cancelled out or I created a new . Either way, the next steps (and result) are still the same
- Clicked on OpenPGP -> KeyManagement
- Obtained the following error: "Enigmail: Error in initializing Enigmail Service".

All gpg/pgp functions are unusable, most are greyed out and clicking on those that are not result in the same error above.

A stupid question..running locally 576z3u

Submitted by Wilson on June 19, 2006 - 5:21am

I hate to make such a fool of myself, but I have to ask this question; Can I run Portable Thunderbird on my main machine - ie; not off a USB, but off the PC? In fact, can I run Abi the same way?

Please do not flame me to death, I just have to ask these things sometimes.

Where are Folder/Filter/SearchFolderLabel settings? 1g3u41

Submitted by CallMeZoot on June 18, 2006 - 2:49pm

Hi,

I'm taking the plunge into portable Thunderbird and I'm trying to figure out the best way to keep it in sync with my main computer.

So far I've copied the entire profile folder, which seems to be working fine, but it's a bit much for everyday sync.

For everyday sync I'd like to just copy changes in emails, address book, and anything I may have done as far as sorting into folders, labels, etc. If I copy the mail/imapmail folders + prefs.js + abook.mab, will that be enough to keep all of these settings intact? If not, where are these settings located?

Also, is there a way to incrementally backup my mail folders so i don't have to copy the whole inbox when I've only added a few messages?

Best method for back/forth sync with Portable Thunderbird (+firefox) 5t6q1j

Submitted by CallMeZoot on June 17, 2006 - 10:44am

Is there a simple solution to keeping Thunderbird and Portable thunderbird synchronized?

Right now I copy the profile directory back and forth, but if I've made changes on both, then I accidentally overwrite one. Any advice on how to efficiently maintain a single profile in two different places?

(the same question applies to Firefox, with respect to bookmarks, etc.)

Thanks,
chris.

Google Desktop doesn't see PTB 362q8

Submitted by pwright2 on June 12, 2006 - 11:25pm

I recently installed the Google Desktop Search Beta 4. Although it claims to index Thunderbird mail (as long as the app is open), it has fine none of my emails. I think PTB doesn't give Google Desktop any signal that it is there, so Google doesn't look for its files.

Anyone know of a workaround?

Submitted by Connor on June 12, 2006 - 10:22am

When i use portable thunderbird it says that it connected, but it never s the mail. if i exit the program while it is connecting it "kills" the connection. this prevents me from ing my mail.

Note: i have checked to make sure that all of my settings, name, and are correct.
