A far better idea to share an email account with more than one user is to use IMAP and then different profiles would have access via a server to the same mail. But if you insist. Copy the WinXP profile folder [SOME_SALT].default to some commonly shared location on Win8.1. For this example I will choose C:\Users\Public\SeaMonkey The path to the profile will not be: C:\Users\Public\SeaMonkey\[SOME_SALT].default Then in each profile goto: %APPDATA%\Mozilla\SeaMonkey Edit the profile.ini [General] StartWithLastProfile=1 [Profile0] Name=default ; Change IsRelative for 1 to 0 IsRelative=0 ; comment out the existing NEW profile ; Path=Profiles/[WIN8.1_SALT].default ; and add absolute path to profile in Public Path=\Users\Public\SeaMonkey\[SOME_SALT].default Do this for both profiles with the same info. Of course you need to replace [SOME_SALT] with whatever your WinXP profile salt was. When you are in either profile will will be using the *same* profile folder. So this really is a bad idea.

A far better idea to share an email account with more than one user is to use IMAP and then different profiles would have access via a server to the same mail. Firefox and Thunderbird have the same issues. It's really not a good idea to try to share a profile. Even if you've done it safely up until now, it's still a disaster waiting to happen. There's several better work-arounds: 1) Working from a common Windows user ID, as suggested elsewhere in this discussion; 2) If the server supports it, using IMAP, and where all your mail is stored on the server (and mirrored locally if desired). 3) I haven't played with it, but the Mozilla Sync tool might be usable. 4) If you're determined to stay with POP, there are ways of having multiple users share the same mailbox, although it takes some tinkering to do that. Primarily, that's a matter of adjusting mail retention settings (e.g., setting mail to not be deleted from the server immediately after download, typically for something like 15 or 30 days). When I've done this in the past, I find it also useful to add BCC: to myself, so that each profile access has copies of sent messages copied to the inbox. Plus, for the purposes of long-term storage, it generally helps if you designate one profile or the other as the Primary profile, and the other(s) as Secondary. That's not an official designation, just something you determine yourself. One additional twist -- for me, since I have several mail accounts, and I do the majority of my work from a specific profile on a specific machine, I do prefer POP, and I consider that to be my primary. However, I do mail access from a number extra points, including Thunderbird on my primary working machine, and Seamonkey, Thunderbird or web mail on other machines. In those other profiles, I use IMAP (because the servers support that), and in each instance, I tweak the client so that copies of sent mail are saved not to the Sent Mail folder, but to the Inbox. Additionally, on my primary POP client, I set retention for 15 days. With that setup, I have read access to virtually anything current, no matter which machine or client I'm using, and anything that I write on a secondary client will always be the inbox, where the primary POP client will download (and I can subsequently file in my archives). However, if you're in the process of moving to a new computer, now is a really good time to get away from trying to share a profile. Just because it's technically possible (and that you've done it in the past), doesn't mean that you should continue doing it.

So you didn't try a test profile. Okay, I started my SeaMonkey with the test profile. Had the 2 Google cookies I mentioned earlier. Cleared cookies, history, cache, and everything else I could check.

Block Cookies from The Website under Tools Cookie Manager is still enabled. Let me try checking When removing, block the listed websites from setting future cookies in the Cookies tab of Data Manager and using Remove there also. APPLAUSE! No Google cookies! That was an adventure. :) An interesting one, but not really relevant to my query. I don't get Google cookies on startup as you do, so I don't need to cure a problem I don't have. I don't get them merely by launching the browser as you do, so I don't need to cure a problem I don't have. (I don't understand what clearing history has to do with cookies, but be that as it may...) I do get precisely one Google cookie by visiting nhl.com, and since Google isn't the originating site, that makes them third-party cookies, which SeaMonkey claims it's blocking. How can Google set a third-party cookie from nhl.com when my setting says to reject third-party cookies? I must conclude that SM's cookie-handling routine is not working correctly. Sorry for the unnecessary noise. Then you need to file a bug report, or nhl.com is setting it and it isn't a third-party cookie. Since a lot appears to be broken in SeaMonkey lately, you could switch to Firefox. If nhl.com is setting the cookie, then it is indeed a third-party cookie. My suspicion is that the nhl.com server is creating Web pages that include fragments (e.g., images, search boxes) supplied by Google or other sources. SeaMonkey is instructed by links and scripts within the nhl.com Web pages to request those fragments from third-party servers; the replies include cookies from those servers. I have the extension Live HTTP Headers from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/seamonkey/addon/live-http-headers/. I used it while surfing the Web sites for the four financial institutions where I do online transactions. Two of those sites -- for credit unions -- requested fragments from Facebook servers. Since Facebook is now collecting information on Web users who do not even have Facebook accounts, I reread the privacy policies of those two credit unions and determined this situation violated their stated policies. One credit union modified their Web site almost immediately to stop pulling fragments from Facebook. I had to complain to the federal credit union regulators -- that they should force the credit union to abide by their own privacy policy -- before the other credit union took action. Note: The addons.mozilla.org page for Live HTTP Headers might indicate that it is not available for the current version of SeaMonkey. All it requires is a tweak for compatibility. -- David E.

Now here's something weird... You already know my default policy is to accept only session cookies. I looked at the permissions for google.com in the Data Manager, and it said Allow for Session, which sounds like the same thing, right? But if they're the same thing, SM wouldn't remember the google.com setting, would it? So I checked the box to Use default, and now I don't get the Google cookie. Apparently there's a difference between Accept cookies for current session only and Allow for Session, which could only make sense to a computer. Perhaps the allow for session permission specifically for google.com overrides the global default no third-party cookies setting, allowing google.com cookies for the session even if they're third-party cookies. Whether or not that's correct/expected behaviour is another question...

Re: Dropbox question
Bill Spikowski wrote: A technical question for Dropbox users: Usually I interact with Dropbox through the local folder on my computer; Dropbox uploads and downloads changed files without my interaction. However, when I email a colleague a link to a file or folder I've posted on Dropbox, I like to test the link before sending it. (Dropbox is confusing enough for regular users; new users are often completely baffled, even when the link is correct!) One way I've verified the upload is by right-clicking on the Dropbox desktop icon, then selecting View on dropbox.com, then looking at my new folder or files and verifying the time and file sizes. However, that has suddenly stopped working for me in Seamonkey, although it still works in Firefox and Chrome. Dropbox has made a recent change that's trouble for me; the other way I verified these links was by pasting them in my outgoing email in Seamonkey, then clicking on the link before sending the email and making sure I'm being sent to the right file. Dropbox now defeats that approach; their explanation is that when a file is already on your local computer, you get redirected there instead of to the actual link on dropbox.com. Either of my old methods worked fine, but I prefer to stay within Seamonkey rather than switching browsers, especially when I'm on other computers and don't recall my passwords. Any suggestions? Dropbox doesn't seem to have any real tech support, and I haven't been able to find anyone else reporting this problem through Google. If Dropbox have made the connection between the URL you used and your local machine, does that not mean the link was correct in the first place? I use a personal Dropbox account to store files for a small hobby forum that I help run and none of my users have ever reported a difficulty accessing files. Dropbox is hopelessly slow for photographs and brings the forum to a crawl but ideal for text files ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

What is the URL? Do you get this on the basic netflix page (netflix.com) or at login, or something else? The error is caused by SSLv3/Poodle issues.

You say that they said: when a file is already on your local computer, you get redirected there instead of to the actual link on dropbox.com. So it's not a problem with the SM browser. Any browser will follow the dropbox mechanism. Right -- this one isn't a SM problem; but as it eliminates my alternate approach, so the SM problem below becomes more critical to me! You have just the SM problem: right-clicking on the Dropbox desktop icon, then selecting View on dropbox.com, then looking at my new folder or files and verifying the time and file sizes.

If no other Dropbox users report this problem, I'll try to track down some errant SM extension that might be causing this behavior . . . . ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

I use a personal Dropbox account to store files for a small hobby forum that I help run and none of my users have ever reported a difficulty accessing files. This is a recent problem -- just in the past week. As to your question -- I haven't a clue, since Dropbox keeps its inner workings hidden from users. I found the product almost unusable until I stumbled upon the way I use it -- keeping a local folder on the desktop of each of my computers that I can interact with using normal file management tools and even without an internet connection; and only accessing Dropbox.com when I need to verify that a file I want to share has uploaded properly and the link I'm about to send a colleague connects to that file. Perhaps I'm not even using their product correctly; I've tried to get tech help from them a few times without success. Whenever I get frustrated with Dropbox, I try another file sharing services, only to find even bigger problems (e.g., my recipients must create an account; or they get bombed with advertising; or the download page has additional links designed to trick my colleagues; or the interface has just as many peculiarities as Dropbox or an even-more-baffling interface). Then I slink back to Dropbox -- until the cycle resumes! ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Re: Another bookmark question
Paul B. Gallagher wrote: Bill Spikowski wrote: I was organizing bookmarks today and messed something up. Dragging folders of bookmarks is sometimes flaky, with folders ending up in the wrong place, but I've never actually LOST any folders. This time I'm afraid I have, about a dozen folders that are pretty important to me. I have a backup of places.sqlite from yesterday, but I'd rather not replace the current file because I have made a lot of other bookmark changes since yesterday. Is there a way to extract just the lost folders from yesterday's places.sqlite and paste it into my current file? I have the SQLite Manager extension installed, but I have no clue how it works, or if it can accomplish what I want to do. Here's one clumsy workaround, others may think of something better: 1) Export your current configuration as Bookmarks.HTML. Rename it so you can identify it, e.g., MangledBookmarks.HTML. 2) With SM closed, copy/paste the backup places.sqlite over the existing one. 3) Launch SM and import MangledBookmarks.HTML, which should create a separate bookmark folder. 4) Drag and drop the lost folders back to where you want them. Delete whatever folders you no longer need. 5) Lather, rinse, repeat. ;-) YES -- that worked like a charm! ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
