seamonkey freezes
ladies / gentlemen - my version of seamonkey often freezes when exploring multiple open tabs simultaneously. according to task manager, seamonkey begins commanding ever larger shares of memory and cpu cycles which i attribute to the pop-up blocker inherent in the software. or maybe ad-blocker keeps stacking requests until available ram memory is exhausted. either way, i have to shut down the seamonkey process using task manager process window and restart my e-mail reader, and usually the processes resume where i left off. often, that, too, will stack seamonkey tab requests and i must return to task manager. i am running an updated version of windows xp pro 3.1 (latest updates applied). seamonkey is the most current iteration available, with all applicable updates. suggestions ? jd ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
How long will SeaMonkey continue to support Mac OS X 10.6-10.8?
I apologize if this is the wrong place to post this, but I'm not sure exactly where to ask this question. We've been having a discussion on another site about the future of web browsers on OS X 10.6-10.8 since Firefox is dropping support. After Firefox ESR 45 support ends, SeaMonkey will be the only browser (that I know of) that still supports 10.6-10.8. Does SeaMonkey plan to end support for Mac OS 10.6-10.8 in the foreseeable future? Also, if this is not the place to ask this question, will someone point me to the right place to ask it? Thanks. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Is there a tutorial on how to do this without needing to re-import everything, which is a pain. LMH Your existing profiles may contain something you don't want. Copying them and then putting them into a new installation may just transfer the problem. (What IS the problem?) You should be able to reinstall a new SM right over the old one. BUTI would create a new profile first and see if all is Ok there. Mozbackup is a GREAT program. I've been using is for about 8 years! It will back up your profile files instead of you doing it manually. It will then restore the files to the new installation. BUT... You need to explain what you mean by security breach? Does someone know your passwords? Do you have malware or a virus? Is it only SM that's affected? One of the reasons I use seamonkey is that it allows me to keep my profiles in any location I designate. I have my profiles in a location outside the seamonkey install directory, and off of the C: drive. These folders are backed up every night along with all of my other data (using rsync). If I restore my OS from an image, or something like that, my email and browser are usually not affected. The same goes for a full re-install of windows. I haven't used mozbackup because I try to avoid relying on additional applications. My experience has been that simple file to file backups are the most dependable. All that said, using mozbackup in the manner suggested would not compromise the redundancy already in place. Worst case, I can always re-import my profiles, so I don't mind trying other solutions. I wish that seamonkey had a simpler import tool, like point to a folder and say import this one, instead of running from the command line and all that. I have a credit card that I use for online purchases only. That card recently had a string of fraudulent charges run up on it, all of which were online purchases from sites in Europe. My bank caught the charges and flagged them as suspicious, so they never got past the pending state. The charges have been canceled, along with the card. I am going through some due diligence to make sure my system here hasn't been compromised. Since these were online purchases, who ever used the card would have needed to know the card number, name as printed on the card, expiration date, card security number, and the entire correct billing address. The two easiest places to acquire this data are from one of the emerchants I made purchases from, or from my browser. There are very few emerchants I do business with, and most of them are very reputable (newegg, amazon, etc), but I still think an emerchant is the most likely source. Still, I think it makes sense to look at my browser. It would be nice if there was a way to scan all of the browser components and do an MD5SUM to confirm that all of the .exe, .dat, and .dll files are unmodified. I'm not sure where to look in the profile folders to see if anything is amiss. LMH What programs do you have to scan for spyware?

Do others see this Acrobat issue? And is there any known fix? I don't know is this is Acrobat or Seamonkey. I live off of Acrobat and so this bug is really annoying. While I am at it (I know this is not a Seamonkey question) I also notice that the Acrobat plug in has two UIs. One is stripped down and clean the other is more traditional and full featured. I don't like the clean one (the one that normally comes up) but the full featured one only sometimes comes up. Any idea how to force it one way or the other? Hawker Hawker, Try this suggestion to eliminate the source of your problem. Using SM download the pdf file to your desktop. Close SM and double click the pdf file to open the file with the Adobe Reader X. With Adobe Reader rendering the file print the file. Check the timing of the download in SM. Check the time it takes for Adobe Reader X to render the file. Check the time it takes to print the file. Compare the timing using SM plugin to perform the similar tasks. If SM takes a long time to download the file check the file size of the downloaded file, it may be several Mb in size. Making comparisons between the two operations may help you to determine the cause of your pdf problems. To respond to both this and the original post: 1) My SM does crash. About 90% of the time I click on a PDF link. Sometimes, it is when I am not even expecting a PDF, but get the crash. 2) Since I cannot even get to the link for the PDF, downloading is not an option. 3) Often, the PDF is not exposed [see unexpected PDF above] but SM crashes when the hidden reference to the PDF is found.

This is why I begin by synching my desktop installation with my laptop, and upgrade the laptop only. If that proves troublesome, I still have a working desktop to complain from. If I'm satisfied that it works fine, only then do I take a chance and upgrade the desktop, knowing that I have a working laptop as a fallback. I have no other software whose upgrades I distrust so much; in 25 years of running PCs I've never had any other application lose major categories of data or become completely inoperable due to an upgrade. If it were some minor applet like Flash I'd blow it off, but SeaMonkey is absolutely central and essential to what I do in both business and personal life.

I thought eventually someone else would bring it up and soon after, it would be fixed. Oh well. Why is it SM no longer stops pop-ups? When a page loads that has a pop-up, I have assigned a pop sound and the highlighted exclamation point shows on the bottom toolbar. But then, if I should click anywhere on the page, the pop-up will open into a new tab, instead of remaining suppressed. This happens on almost all websites that use pop-ups. (Oftentimes, they will use Flash for these pop-ups, but the Flashblock extension disables it, so it only shows the F button.) Is there anything I can change to prevent the pop-ups from happening? TIA. You do not state whether you have Block unrequested popup windows checked under your Privacy and Security preferences. Are the offending popups Ads? I don't have Flashblock installed, but do have AdBlock Plus installed and never have a problem with unrequested popups. I double checked the preference setting, and it is checked. However, I see in the disclaimer: Even if blocked, websites may use other methods to show popups. So, that may be what's happening. I'm currently not using AdBlock Plus, which I tried a long time ago, but didn't like the way it worked back then.

I can't find a single problem yet; and even some sites which didn't accept SM before (due to non-supported browser), now do accept it.

I can now feel ever so much safer again without guilt. -- Ken Rudolph My situation was similar to yours - elected to update from 2.0x (2.0.0.14) to 2.3.3 after continuing reminders but would not be able to suggest update was flawless. Clearly we are dealing with a different format for Bookmarks now but in my update post-install I note that of my add-ons - only 10 of 20 installed extensions were able to work in 2.3.3 and thus I now have 10 add-ons - that are disabled in this version. Had the option to uninstall 2.3.3 to either revert to 2.0x or then move to 2.1 or 2.2 where more of these worked or still-worked - likely that route would have been taken by me. TWT but likely a required update just due to security flaws that removes many of the browser tools users rely on is not going to be widely appreciated. Rather than disable add-ons and then install and then check for add-on updates, a screen of add-ons and then advice which if any are supported by the new version prior to installation authorization is provided by user would ruffle less feathers.

I am still on 2.0.14 and didn't update to 2.2 because of all the complaints. Now we have 2.3 and more complaints. I really don't know what to do. I like the version I am using. I am using Windows 7 which seems to complicate all new program updates. Just wondering how others using Win 7 have managed with the new update. my two cents: SeaMonkey 2.1 and 2.2 have been virtually flawless...there may have been a few niggling details which irked me personally... but none rose to the level of making me decide to remain in the insecure 2.0.x series... Sorry to disagree with you, but I found 2.1 and 2.2 to be virtually useless because they were so badly flawed. Add the irreversible database changes to this and I'm not even going to try 2.3. I am very sad that SeaMonkey has chosen to follow on with the FireFox release program (I understand that SM is inextricably tied to FF) rather than just maintaining the 2.0 tree. I (and many others) believe the FF 6-week release cycle is an extremely bad idea and I have no intention of going that route. Despite being a Netscape/Mozilla Suite/SeaMonkey user for almost 20 years, I'm afraid I'm going to have to ditch Mozilla in all its forms and go a different direction. Since I have a large collection of tools I've developed for hacking various things about Mozilla, I do not do this lightly. To put it bluntly, I am not interested in a SeaMonkey that is nothing more than FireFox and Thunderbird launched simultaneously -- if SM can't offer something other than this, there's no reason for it to exist. For me, it is far more important that I have something that is stable and has a stable database format that I can develop my own tools for than it is to support the latest eye-candy. The database format for bookmarks and mail has been almost unchanged for that entire 20 years -- until now. I haven't decided which browser+email I will be switching to since considerable research will be required, but it has become sadly obvious to me that it is necessary to change. Unless, that is, someone is willing to fork SeaMonkey at the 2.0.14 level and maintain it strictly with security bug fixes. Sorry to see you go. Be sure to post back with what browser+email program you switched to. SM2.0.14 is the end of the line for the 2.0 version. I'm not that crazy about certain aspects of SM2.2 but I've learned to make it work for me. -- JD.. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

So I guess it depends on what you're using as your external editor? I don't see how it can be. Surely all that is necessary is to have something on the clipboard ? If I am offered paste, then that confirms that there is something on the clipboard, so what reason might there be that I was not also offered paste as quotation ? Note : in the current e-mail dialogue, right-click/paste- as quotation has re-appeared. Very odd indeed. Philip Taylor Strange that it disappeared. I'll try using a different text editor: This was copied from WordPad and then right mouse click, Edit paste as quotation. I'll go qo a little longer so Wordpad and wrap the line. It did not wrap the lines. I had to use Edit, Rewrap. So, I'm not sure what the problem is. As you say, it's only pasting what is in the clipboard, which shouldn't hold any formatting.

If you do not yet have PrefBar installed, you will need to open the downloaded XPI file with a ZIP application and tweak the install.rdf file. The necessary tweak has been discussed repeatedly in this newsgroup. Alternatively, you can wait for PrefBar 6.x. I don't know what x will be, but it should be available soon. Once PrefBar is installed: 1. Place your cursor over the PrefBar toolbar, right-click, and select Customize PrefBar from the pull-down context menu. 2. Place your cursor over the rightmost area under Enabled Items, right-click, and select [New Button] from the pull-down list. 3. On the Common tab of the New Item:Button window, put a unique identifier in the ID area and a short label in the Label area (I used Pwd). 4.

Re: So long, and thanks for all the fish
Graham wrote: I've used the Mozilla suite from the Netscape days on OS/2. Right up to the end of the Seamonkey 1.x series, it always did what I needed, and I am truly grateful for all the effort that's been put into Mozilla, and Seamonkey in particular. I've tried Firefox, and used it extensively at work, but for my own personal use, Seamonkey was just more usable. Then came Seamonkey 2.0, with its badly broken form and password filling and management. With some add-ons, a reasonable degree of functionality was restored, but not all. This has led me to using LastPass, which has had a side-effect - I'm no longer tied to a particular browser. Plugins have always been somewhat problematic with Seamonkey, because as we are all only too well aware, many developers won't test Firefox plugins with Seamonkey, even if they'd most likely just work. However, the important ones (for me) worked most of the time. Then comes Seamonkey 2.1, with yet more user interface changes and some loss of function, and the Firefox inspired rapid release cycle. Although the Firefox team don't seem to see this as a problem, many users do, and we've been treated to the sad sight of developers who would far rather argue than listen. One or two have shown a stunning degree of arrogance which I have found quite off-putting. Just because Chrome can manage a rapid update cycle, with new versions, doesn't mean the Mozilla programs can do it the same way. The way plugins and extension work with Chrome releases is different to the way Mozilla ones work. Unlike Mozilla plugins which need to specify which versions and releases they work with, Chome ones merely need to check for a minimum level of Chrome: if it works today, it will probably work four versions from now. Not so in Mozilla's world. So, I've switched to Chrome. I don't particularly like it, but I'm liking Seamonkey less and less anyway. Chrome doesn't have all the plugins I want, but it has most of them, and despite worries about Google tracking every moment of your life, they do actually provide ways to stop them doing a lot of it, and there's plugins to do some of the rest. (There's also the small matter of not running into so many sites which say I'm not using a supported browser - businesses have quite rapidly adopted Chrome as a supported browser for customers, and the one I work for supports it for internal use too.) Once again, I thank the Mozilla and Seamonkey teams for all their efforts: the web and all its browsers are much better for their efforts; even IE has improved by leaps and bounds because of Firefox. I won't be along for the ride, but I will keep an eye open, and may be back one day. Graham. I hear you. SM2.+ is different. I guess you never got a good look at the Data Manager or you probably would have said something about it. It's a little confusing to me. I bet I'll learn to deal with it. I hear you.

Still, add-ons built with that only or the Google Chrome API can do so much less than full-blown add-ons for Mozilla products that I don't expect all add-ons to switch to using it. The thing is, in most cases the add-on didn't break, it just needs to have install.rdf updated. And that is really hostile to users, when a pop-up could ask if the user wanted to install and warned that it might break things. That is so much safer than having users unpacking, modifying, repacking, and then trying an add-on. Follow this logic: not only are there more users who can figure out a [TRY IT] button without messing up, but the number of people distributing hacked versions of add-ons would drop to zero. Sooner or later someone will figure out that offering an updated add-on is a great way to slip in malware. These are the prices you pay for being a pioneer: Not just for being a pioneer, but also for allowing many more degrees of freedom that others. Could you at least hint WHY a working disable compatibility check in button or about:config form is not available, while developers tell people to hack the add-on which has higher risks. The add-on manager whines that compatibility checking is disabled, but clearly it isn't. At least a button would force the user to consider the issue before blindly hacking install.rdf. It's really not a difficult hack to change a install.rdf file. More of a minor edit. I'm talking about my old add-ons that were deemed incompatible with SM2.1. Hacking the install.rdf in a .xpi file is a little more difficult but still not that difficult. I'm not taking sides and I'm not saying anything about what you're saying.

So when we checked AMO for a compat version (or a compat-bump) on update, the check against 2.0.10pre didn't find any results, and AMO will never offer an older version of the extension than the one you are running, so 2.0.9 (which was marked as compat) wouldn't get marked as compat.

Will there be an automatic update from 2.1 to 2.2 as well? Not a big deal, 2.1 installed over 2.0, for me, without any problems.

Re: My 2.1 Upgrade
JohnW-Mpls wrote: Upgrading from 2.0.14 to 2.1 did not include all of my bookmarks - some groups were missing and most looked like a month ago. I now have the current list - I imported bookmark.html from last week's system backup and then deleted all the ones from the upgrade action. I like the search capability in Bookmark Mana - I just wish it included the group under which I had saved the bookmark. I have over a dozen groups, each with subgroups, and I would like to know where to go to update the bookmark's information (and remove dupes). 2.1 is no better than 2.0.14 at spoofing my local grocery store's website - still need to use IE or FFox. So far, 2.1 seems much better at inserting saved passwords. How about a link to your local grocery store's website? Maybe somebody can come up with a work-around for you. -- JD.. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

How can I find out more about editing install.rdf files to make add-ons work? I can tell you how to do it. What Add-Ons do you have and did you remove them when they didn't work? If they're still available, then editing their install.rdf file is pretty easy. If you removed them, well, it's a little more complicated. JD - A few of the add-on's which do not work for me, that I want to use include: password exporter, folderpane tools, password maker and, user agent switcher. Your assistance would be great in getting these working. I just deleted viewsource, do not need IE Tab Plus if UA works (or if that should be used in lieu of agent switch please let me know). TIA - Bo1953 If you did not remove the add-ons, you need to edit the install.rdf file for each one. I'm using Windows XP and the add-ons are located here: C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Application Data\Mozilla\SeaMonkey\Profiles\randomletters.default\extensions UserName and randomletters.default will be different on your machine and won't have the marks. Many of the folders for the add-ons are a series of random letters and numbers. In each of the folders for the add-ons, there is a install.rdf file. You open that file with a text editor, I use WordPad. Look for lines that say: Mozilla SeaMonkey, targetApplication, Description. Below that should be a line that says: em:maxVersion2.0b1/em:maxVersion Change that 2.0b1 or whatever is there, to 2.1. Save the changes to the file and you should have your add-on back. If you've never done this before, save a copy of the original install.rdf as install.rdf.txt so if you make a mistake you can delete your edited file and just rename the .txt version. -- JD.. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
Scrolling Tabs..
I never noticed this before, but my SM2.1 has scrolling tabs. When I put my mouse pointer on the tabs and use the scroll wheel, I can scroll through the tabs.
