Re: why can I not see submit section of page
Interviewed by CNN on 25/02/2012 16:11, Arne told the world: I may update sometime in the future, if the developers can make the newer versions work as we (as users) want it to work. At the moment there has been to much complaints about all new versions, after 2.0.14, about issues I don't like in the newer versions. Well, you have to take into account that in every endeavor, the complaints are always heard louder than the praise. There are lots of people -- including me -- perfectly happy with the new versions of Seamonkey. We just aren't as prone to mention it in this forum. Do you have any specific concerns that are keeping you from upgrading? Perhaps we can clear up some points or offer an acceptable alternative. I'm also sick of updating the browser several times every moth, with the following hassle to get it work the same way as before the update, with e.g. add-ons and extensions I need but don't work. Well, I wouldn't say several times a month. It's supposed to be once every six weeks, but there has been on average about one intermediate chemspill update between those, to address can't-wait serious issues that have been recently discovered. But those chemspill updates tend to change very little that's visible to the user. Making add=ons work has become actually easier recently. Now in many cases Seamonkey will by default accept an add-on even if technically it is marked as incompatible. For other cases, the easiest workaround is to install the Add-On Compatibility Reporter extension. Since the easiest way now to update, is to unistall 2.0.14 and start from scratch with a new version, I am in the process to move all my new mail correspondence to an other mail software, so I at least have them safe when/if the time comes to upgrade. Also bookmarks is to be saved as a web page. Well, I wouldn't say that's the easiest way. Upgrading from 2.0.x to higher versions is usually straightforward: just download the latest version and install it over the old one. If you really, really want to preserve your download history (most users don't care), you can upgrade to 2.1.x as an intermediate step. Of course, backing up your profile is a sensible precaution. Isn't it always? But starting from scratch -- with a clean slate -- does have its points, I admit. It's more work, since you have to redo just about all your settings, but you will arguably end up with a more stable system, not carrying as much old cruft. Re bookmarks... yeah, in 2.1 and higher those are stored in a database, no longer in bookmarks.html. But if you like having bookmarks.html available, there's an option (I forget what it is, since I don't use it) to tell Seamonkey to auto-export an updated bookmarks.html every time it closes down. I have tried some other browsers, in case I have to abandon SM. Also use them if I have to, but I don't like the way all new browser versions are taking. I like what I have now with SM 2.0.14 and would appreciate if new versions could stay that way. Well, not everybody likes changes, I concede. But it's pretty hard to avoid them. Not only is the Internet moving on, with what were newfangled experimental capabilities a couple years ago now in the process of becoming basic requirements for many sites, but also there's the security problem. Security flaws are discovered all the time, and older, no longer supported version aren't going to be fixed. -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm.

Question for you: Do a Ctrl-D, the file Bookmark Window pops up, can you hover the borders to enlarge or decrease the window as you can in the Bookmark manager ? I have the standard smaller file bookmark manager window back but in SM 2.7.2 still no way to hover the borders, no arrow cursor symbols and not in SM 2.7.2 portable. You can't even do this in Firefox 1.0.0.2, try it, I can't, at least not on my system. I have an older Portable SM 2.0.1.4 on an USB stick, there I can do this.

Now in many cases Seamonkey will by default accept an add-on even if technically it is marked as incompatible. For other cases, the easiest workaround is to install the Add-On Compatibility Reporter extension. As it was way back at least, I hardy get them work after an update before a new update was announced. So I used to hold the updates until I was sure there was at least the most valuable (for me) add-ons that was compatible with the version I updating to.

Somehow in the account set-up process, it doesn't ask for a password, but then when I try to access the account, SM wants a password. Sometimes I get a message saying enter the new password, or something like that, so I enter one but then SM won't accept it. This makes no sense to me. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks In the SM 1.1.19 email tool bar select Tools, then Password Manager, then Stored Passwords. Scroll down toward the bottom of the list and you will find all of your mail boxes identified by 'mailbox://'. Click on the box 'Show Passwords' and, if one has been assigned to the mailbox ion question, you will be able to see it. If no password has been assigned, I would delete the mailbox entry and recreate the email account. Do not forget to click on 'Hide Passwords' to reset it. -- Stan Gondek Multi Path Communications http://www.m-p-c.com ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Can you have an activity monitor running while you are typing to see if the OS is off doing something else while the keystrokes wait in the buffer? I had a serious case of that a few years ago that we traced to a lot of extraneous re-paints.

As one might guess, it hasn't happened to THIS post yet. Go figure... keith whaley I see that too, usually when typing a password;particularly when SM gives me an unsolicited prompt for my Master and I don't catch that the cursor has shifted to that dialog...like just now. I'm running the same same setup as you, 4G of RAM installed. Outside of the annoying (and long standing) random SM Master Password prompt bug, I generally chalk the keystroke lag up to processor overload...or USB arbitration. How many things have you got hooked up and active, and how much RAM do you have installed?

Re: Username / Password Q
My experience has shown that It DOES NOT work the same way as for http sites. So far,all http sites are accepted and (i think - because i have so few) all https sites are ignored. So i have downloaded that add-on and as they say, We Shall See. THANKS. Quoting David E.

Re: Username / Password Q
I've had to do this before, and this is one set of solutions - http://www.werockyourweb.com/force-firefox-save-password I know I did something to a .js file, but I can't recall what, exactly. I also use an add-on called HTTPS Everywhere that forces every site to/though https: if it is available and SM Password Manager seems to still function as with http: navigation for those instances. -- - Rufus robertb...@localnet.com wrote: My experience has shown that It DOES NOT work the same way as for http sites.
