The combination of an Internet browser, email amp; newsgroup client,
HTML editor, IRC chat and web development tools, that has already
established a wide user base in its previous incarnations, has been
rebuilt on top of the modern Mozilla platform, featuring world-class
add-on management among other things. In addition, it has been improved
with feed support (including an RSS and Atom feed reader in the mail
component), a modern look, restoration of browser tabs and windows after
crashes or restarts, tabbed mail, automated updates, smart history
search from the location bar, faster JavaScript, HTML5 features (for
example video and downloadable fonts), and even support for the
Lightning calendar add-on (which will issue a beta for installation on
SeaMonkey 2.0 in the next few weeks).

The release notes feature more in-depth lists of the improvements and
known issues with the new version as well as installation requirements
and instructions. Find even more information on SeaMonkey 2.0 and the
SeaMonkey project at seamonkey-project.org!

This is truly great news, a great day for the old Netscape suite 
concept. My hearty congratulations to all who have worked so hard.


I am assuming that RC2 is the released version, since a check for 
updates from here found none.

 1. Can I just copy the old SM v1.1.18 plugins (QuickTime v7.6.4,
 RealPlayer v6.0.12.448, Flash v10.0 r32, VeohTV, Sun Java Platform SE 6
 U15, MS DRM, Windows Media Player Plug-in, etc.) to SM2's plugins
 without any changes and problems? Are they all compatible?


They should afaik.


 2. How do I keep my multiple PC's SM v2 bookmarks, address books,
 e-mails, etc. in sychronized manually? I usually copy my bookmarks.html,
 abook*.mab, and e-mails between PCs.


Yeah, just copy the data you like or the whole profile.


 3. Speaking of bookmarks, addressbooks, e-mails, etc. Can I copy/import
 the old datas into SM2 easily since I am doing a clean install?


SM2 offers to migrate the data from the old profile to the new one on
the first start.
If it doesn't, start it manually:
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_migration_-_SeaMonkey


 4. I see no Mac OS X 10.2.8 support. Can I compile my own or get it from
 a third party? I still use SM v1.1.18 on it.


I'm not xperienced with Macs, but... this doesn't work?
http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/#official


 5. I have about eighteen extensions in SeaMonkey v1.1.18, but I'd hate
 to lose them and I assume they won't work in v2. 
Just try them out. And if it fails, ask the developer if the extension
can be made compatible (sometimes it's already working and just SM needs
to be added to the compatibility list of the extension)

 or do hey still work? Here's the list of my installed extensions:
 * Extension Uninstaller API 2.0 (http://jgillick.nettripper.com/)

Not needed, SM2 has own AddOn-Mnager

 * Flashblock (http://flashblock.mozdev.org/)

works

 * Mnenhy 
is about to be released in a new SM2-compatible version soon.

 * Preferences Toolbar (http://prefbar.mozdev.org/)

works

Isn't there an early build out there that supports Gecko 1.9.1.x but

the annoying infobars. Personally I don't care about any of the new

faster and supports some newer web standards. As long as everything in
the SeaMonkey 1.1.x was still present then that would be great. So I
want the old location bar, old password manager, old form manager, old

don't care if it's old and archaic, it works while SQLite tends to

New SeaMonkey 2 -- Questions

I just downloaded the Windows installer EXE file via FTP (SeaMonkey
Setup 2.0.exe).  This is smaller than the related ZIP file and smaller
than the installer EXE for 1.1.18.  Is this correct?  Is the file
complete, or do I have to be connected to the Internet when I install?

In the past, I merely installed SeaMonkey directly over the prior
version without first removing that prior version.  Can I safely install
SeaMonkey 2 over SeaMonkey 1.1.18 without first deleting the latter?
(This being Tuesday when I normally backup my hard drives and Windows
registry, I will do my backups before attempting installation of
SeaMonkey 2.)

Just would like to thank everyone related to the latest version of Sea 
Monkey.  It took care of all of my so called problems such as 
slowness and not being able to set it to default and installed easily
the only thing I have to do is delete to old 1.1.17 and it files.  It 
seems everything that I had set correctly moved over with no problem 
at all.  It was easy to do and I am running it on Vista.  Excellent 
job and thanks again to the hard working people that worked on it.

I'm sorry to say, but there's a problem with the latest release.

I upgraded it from 1.1.18 and after the upgrade I had a strange
occurrence.
Every time I try to run Seamonkey, it shuts down all by itself without
ever opening a window. I tried downloading it again without any
change.
I hope this gets addressed, because I really like this client, at
least up to now.

No, SM 2 is a whole new major version and deserves a clean install. I 
recommend moving the old one out of the way, installing the new one and 
copying files back as needed (e.g. plugins, searchplugins). Note that 
old dictionaries should work but newer ones (Hunspell compatible) are 
recommended.


At first launch SM 2 will migrate only one profile (and disable/remove 
all extensions from the copy). To migrate additional profiles, read

The new form manager works under the hood, there is no special dialog 
(other than Preferences). Just enter something in a form and SM 2 will 
keep a record of it, offering it when you come back as a drop-down list 
(click into form fields or press cursor down in them). Basically the 
same as what Firefox has.

AFAIK there is no fully SM 2 compatible version of IE Tab yet. All 
version I tested (1.3.3, 1.5, 1.5 dev; all installed with the extensions 
compatibility check disabled) basically worked in that they used IE's 
rendering engine to e.g. display http://www.windowsupdate.com/  (which 
is on the extension's default white list) and seemed to respect the 
white list settings. All those versions also had in common that they 
didn't show IE Tab anywhere outside the Add-on Manager (and xSidebar's 
configuration drop-down), i.e. neither in the Tools menu nor the status 
bar. I guess the menu/status bar overlays need some adjustments for SM 2.


Maybe you could try and ask the extension's author to make it compatible 
with SM 2? Alternatively you may add your request to this thread:

setting one by the way)

Needless to say, I've reverted to Seamonkey 1.x and all is working again.

Also, needless to say, I'm not willing to do a hard reset on the master 
password and lose all my passwords, cookies, etc.


Rather a problem.

AFAIK there is no fully SM 2 compatible version of IE Tab yet. All 
version I tested (1.3.3, 1.5, 1.5 dev; all installed with the extensions 
compatibility check disabled) basically worked in that they used IE's 
rendering engine to e.g. display http://www.windowsupdate.com/  (which 
is on the extension's default white list) and seemed to respect the 
white list settings. All those versions also had in common that they 
didn't show IE Tab anywhere outside the Add-on Manager (and xSidebar's 
configuration drop-down), i.e. neither in the Tools menu nor the status 
bar. I guess the menu/status bar overlays need some adjustments for SM 2.


Maybe you could try and ask the extension's author to make it compatible 
with SM 2? Alternatively you may add your request to this thread:

I'm sorry to say, but there's a problem with the latest release.

I upgraded it from 1.1.18 and after the upgrade I had a strange
occurrence.
Every time I try to run Seamonkey, it shuts down all by itself without
ever opening a window. I tried downloading it again without any
change.
I hope this gets addressed, because I really like this client, at
least up to now.

Tomas Thrainsson


Well, I just installed 2.0 final over the top of 1.1.14 on an XP box, 
snd all went very smoothly, so it is not a generic problem, but 
something about your system.


The best thing for you to do would be to post a separate topic, and give 
more information about your system, for example, what service packs are 
installed, and how you installed, over the top of the existing 
installation, or did you uninstall first, for example.


Posting a separate topic will get your problem more attention, rather 
then having it hide here in an announcement thread.

SeaMonkey 2.0 destroys previous e-mail inboxes

2009-10-27 Thread Claus

Hi, I have just installed SeaMonkey 2.0. Unfortunately, the
installation deleted ALL my previous e-mails. I have been using
SeaMonkey 1.1.18, had configured three different e-mail accounts with
a total amount of about 5GB of e-mails. SeaMonkey 2.0 literally
deleted the first account (the respective directory on the HD is
really empty) whilst the mails for the second and third account are
still in their respective directories on the HD, but are not
visualized in their inboxes of the new version of SeaMonkey. All three
accounts were identically configured (POP3) and connected to the same
e-mail server. I can download and send new e-mails, but have lost
access to all my previous mails.

Mozilla should inform their users that they risk loosing their
existing e-mails when they install SeaMonkey 2.0. This is horrible and
I hope that I can recover my lost e-mails from a second copy on
another PC. Do you have any suggestions how to import inboxes from the
previous version? Is there any way to get access to the existing
inboxes created by SeaMonkey 1.1.18 on the same PC which are still on
the hard disk but do not appear in the new inboxes?

Thanks for your help!

The bookmarks format is still the same and won't change for the SM 2.0.x

Firefox 3.5 has the preference browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML, which 
should refresh the ancient bookmarks.html on shutdown if set to true.


I guess SM 2.1 will inherit that pref in due course so cross reference

As I said the configuration dialog can be accessed (see above). I cannot 
recommend to use any of those versions productively, though. They seem 
to break the location bar (the address doesn't change when different 
rendering engines are used). Anyway, my testing ends here, please see my

The new form manager works under the hood, there is no special dialog

keep a record of it, offering it when you come back as a drop-down list 
(click into form fields or press cursor down in them). Basically the

Okay, you do realize that SeaMonkey 2.0 has a different profile location 
then 1.1.x?  The profile transfer wizard usually does a very good job of 
copying the files, however you do have an unusually large am mount of 
email to be transferred.  I suspect that the tranfer wizard may not have 
been able to handle that large an amount in your main email account.


The original profile is left intact. If I am reading you correctly, your 
should be able to transfer the files from the old profile to the new 
profile manually.


Give a little more information.  Did the profile wizard seem to complete 
properly? Is your first account listed as an account, with blank 
folders, or is it not listed at all.  Did you uninstall the old version? 
 If you did not, open it and verify that your mail is still there (it 
will be).


If SM 2.0 does not show your first account, create it in the Account 
wizard.  Do not allow it to download any mail yet.


Once the account is created, close SeaMonkey.  Navigate to your original 
profile folder:


C:\\Documents and Settings\(username)\Application 
Data\Mozilla\Profiles\(profilename)\.slt


In the Mail subfolder, find the flder associated with your first 
account, which will be named for the POP server.  Copy the whole folder.


Go to your new profile location:


C:\\Documents and Settings\(username)\Application 
Data\Mozilla\SeaMonkey\Profiles


There should be a folder called .default, your new profile. Open 
that, open the mail subfolder, and paste in the copied folder, allowing 
to overwrite the existing (empty) folder that is there.


Open SeaMonkey, and your mail should be restored. Repeat as needed for 
the other accounts.  If they are showing as accounts, you can probably 
just copy their folders over from the Mail folder in the old profile to 
the Mail folder in the new.

Is it possible that the e-mail message contains only an HTML version
and your SM client is configured to display the message as plain text?

Try changing View - Message Body - Original HTML

If it's already set to Original HTML, try setting it to plain text.
  
Thanks for the suggestion.  I looked into that.  But I would like to 
get these and other messages with the original HTML.  I only have 
trouble with the one sender.  It is a National retailer who sends me 
offers.  I received a coupon which I would like to print but cannot 
because it is broken up.  I saw it online at work in my Yahoo mail 
account and it looked fine.  But when it downloaded to my SeaMonkey 
mail account I can't see the message.  Several times I've gone through 
the cycle of telling it to always show remote content which creates 
an entry for it in my address book but does not clear up the problem.  
I then delete the entry and go through the process again with no 
luck.  Whenever I get a message from a new sender I do this and it 
clears up the message and all future messages from the same sender.


I just want to know if SeaMonkey has some kind of log file that 
retains sender names that I can clear it from.  For now, I've filtered 
my Yahoo online account to send messages from this sender to a folder 
where I can read them online.  But I would like to fix this if possible.


Thanks,

Tony
I'm still having trouble with this issue.  I thought I'd see what 
happened if I used the message filters to send these messages to another 
email address to see if the behavior was the same there.  It didn't work 
because I got a message saying the message filtering could not be 
applied because the inbox was busy.


Please somebody tell me how to resolve this.

I had 1.1.18 installed and running fine.  I downloaded 2.0 (just a
little while ago), installed it (no problems), then, like David it
asked if I wanted to run.  I said yes and nothing happened.  I also
double-clicked the SM icon in the SM folder: nothing.

I have only one profile and I did not uninstall 1.1.18.  I looked in
the SeaMonkey folder and the seamonkey.exe file had a date from
September.  I would have expected it to have an October date.

I have reloaded 1.1.18 but am disappointed with the 2.0 problem.  I'm
running XP-SP3.

Thanks for any help.

I upgraded it from 1.1.18 and after the upgrade I had a strange

Every time I try to run Seamonkey, it shuts down all by itself without
ever opening a window. I tried downloading it again without any
change. I had the same problem with the alpha releases, so I always
reverted back to trusty old 1.1x series that have remained rock solid.
I hope this gets addressed, because I really like this client, at

Where To Install SM2..

I'm currently running SM 1.1.18 but install all my programs on my D

When I go to install SM 2, it wants to install in:

Well, most people are installing with no problem, but it is brand new 
software,so there are bound to be some glitches.


First of all, even if you install SM 2.0 in the default location, it 
will not overwrite the existing SM 1.1.x. It installs to its own 
location, and sets up a new profile in a new location.  As long as you 
do not uninstall SM 1.1.x, you cn easily run the two independently of 
each other.


Therefore, you can select a custom install, and place the program 
wherever you like.  If something goes wrong, you can always run SM 
1.1.x, and fix the 2.0 install at your convenience.  Most likely, 
nothing will go wrong.

If you weren't prompted for the master password in SeaMonkey 1.x then 
you probably weren't using it and you won't lose anything by resetting 
it. I say probably because I only know of two uses in SeaMonkey 1.x:


  1. It was used to protect client certificates (e.g. S/MIME personal
 certificates)
  2. There was a preference that could use it to encrypt your
 passwords. This preference was disabled by default. See

Quotecolors and it works. So I now want to move on.

Besides the news and Email I've also added some filter rules. and other

Can I completely remove the Profile Folder and do the import?



From what you are saying, you have already imported.  If you have 
another profile to import, do not delete the profile folder until you 
have imported the data.


Once you are happy with how 2.0 is working, it would be a good idea to 
delete the old profile folder, to save disk space.  If you have 
installed 2.0 anywhere other than Applications, move it to the 
Applications folder, and let it overwrite 1.1.8.

Due to the reported problems, it seems a bit too problematic to update from 
1.1.18 to 2.0, now. Maybe people like me, who need to be consident that our 
systems are (relatively) stable, need to wait until 2.1 is released.

Ah, the word consident, should have been confident. Too much haste. 
And I have not yet been able to get spell checking in PINE, to work.

One thing that concerns me, is the use of the .tar.bz2 (files like that used 
to be .tar.gz - the .bz2 entended extension, seems a bit different) file, 
rather than a package file (like .deb), for Linux.

I run Ubuntu Linux 8.04LTS, Debian 5 Linux, and Windows XP with service packs 
(I believe that I have SP3, in addition to SP2, which I do know was 
installed, but I am not definite about SP3), although the Win XP should 
probably now be replaced with Win 7, so I think it is probably best, for 
stability, to wait until if and when Seamonkey 2 (or, even better, from the 
reporting of the problems, version 2.1, with all the bugs of version 2, 
fixed) makes it into the package repositories for the Linux distributions.

Also, it would need to be explicitly stated, that Seamonkey v2.x would 
definitely be able to be installed in parallel with an existing installation 
of 1.1.x, and, be able to import settings/profiles/history from v1.1.x, on 
each of the different operating systems, so that the two could be run in 
parallel (parallel implementation is alsways safest, in software 
development), to ensure that we do not lose data, as has been reported as 
having happened with other people who have upgraded from 1.1.18 to 2, or who 
have replaced 1.1.18 with 2.

 AFAIK there is no fully SM 2 compatible version of IE Tab yet. All 
 version I tested (1.3.3, 1.5, 1.5 dev; all installed with the extensions 
 compatibility check disabled) basically worked in that they used IE's

This is exactly my problem as well. I installed SM 2.0 tonight on my WinXP Professional SP2 system
that already has 1.1.18 working fine. After install I was prompted to launch SeaMonkey but nothing
happens. It will not launch - at all - from the desktop icon or directly from the .exe file. No
sign of it in Task Manager processes either. Fortunately my 1.1.18 is untouched, so I'll probably
use that for the foreseeable future. I'd hate to have to switch to FF and TB since I've used the
suite since Navigator 4 but this just isn't working for me.

Oh, the only parent.lock file I found anywhere was in my old SeaMonkey profile, none in the SM 2
directories at all. I deleted it as suggested, but no effect.

2009-10-27 Thread Dennis Gleeson


 A new form manager replaces all previous web form management, and
 automatically keeps a record of what you type into forms and presents
 you these options in a drop-down list when you come back.

I haven't downloaded the new version yet but have a question based on 
some previous reading on here.


Is there any way in 2.0 to fill a complete form with 1 or 2 clicks(like 
with the current form manager) or are you forced to make a choice from 
drop downd in EACH form field?

Bravo.  Good work.

Well, except for the totally ill-conceived trashing of the modal windows.

If I have multiple accounts for a single site (say, American Express, 
which I do, and many many other sites), and the reason I stored that 
account info in SeaMonkey in the first place was because I can't and 
don't want to have to recall the arcane login info, then, no, the new 
paradigm doesn't work.


If I can't remember that one login begins with 1 and the other login 
begins with e and the third login begins with j ... well, how the 
hell is this new paradigm better?  I mean, look, I plugged all this data 
into SeaMonkey so SM could remember it, not me.


WTFO?

The whole point of that function is (well, was) so I don't have to 
remember, ok?  And now you guys broke it.  So I now have to remember all 
my logins in order to use SM's function.


Admit it.  You broke a perfectly good and useful function.

We can argue later about WHY you broke it.  But, admit it.  The function 
is broken.  The functionality is broken.  The usability is broken.


Stupid modal window?  Users don't care about that argument.  I care 
that I have a useful function on a Web site where I have 3 or 4 or 5 
different logins.  AND THE REASON I US SM AND IT'S LOGIN FUNCTION WAS 
... I DON'T WANNA HAVE TO REMEMBER THIS SHIT!!!


Got it now?

So, okay, modal windows have been deemed inelegant by the programmers. 
Fine.  No problem.


Tell you what.  Solve my problem and yours at the same time and I'll 
praise you.


Screw me with nonsensical programming arguments?  Sorry.  You can't 
support it.  There's no argument you can muster that says your argument 
outweighs normal usage like mine.


Tell me, please.  If a user of SM has 3 or 4 (or more) logins to a 
single site, and the whole purpose of using SM's password manager is to 
not have to remember any of those logins, so that when a user goes to a 
login URL he'll be tossed up a modal (sorry, stupid modal) window 
wherein he can go Oh!  Right!  My wife's account!  No!  My account!  Oh 
no!!!  My daughter's account! Ooops! My son's account ...


Hey.  If I wanted to keep all that shit in my brain I'd just use IE.  Or 
something else.  What the hell where you people thinking?


So, ok, please, tell me. Tell me, in my usage, how am I to employ the 
new SM paradigm?  How is this better for me?


And, please, tell me, how does this new and better paradigm work when I 
log into a site where I have 2, 3, 4 or 5 login identities and I can't 
remember how any of them start?

 Due to the reported problems, it seems a bit too problematic to update 
 from 1.1.18 to 2.0, now. Maybe people like me, who need to be consident 
 that our systems are (relatively) stable, need to wait until 2.1 is 
 released.

By then 1.1.18 will probably be in the Fx 2.0 and Tb 2.0 catagories.

 
 One thing that concerns me, is the use of the .tar.bz2 (files like that 
 used to be .tar.gz - the .bz2 entended extension, seems a bit different) 
 file, rather than a package file (like .deb), for Linux.

Why? In Ubuntu all you do is download, open Nautilus, double-click the
file, extract to your home folder, create a Applications link to the
~/home/seamonkey/seamonkey shell file and run. Or from a terminal:

$ ~/home/seamonkey/
$ ./seamonkey

or follow the install instructions:

http://www.seamonkey-project.org/doc/2.0/install-and-uninstall
http://www.seamonkey-project.org/doc/2.0/install-and-uninstall#install_linux

 
 I run Ubuntu Linux 8.04LTS, Debian 5 Linux,

See above.

 and Windows XP with service
 packs (I believe that I have SP3, in addition to SP2, which I do know 
 was installed, but I am not definite about SP3), although the Win XP 
 should probably now be replaced with Win 7, so I think it is probably 
 best, for stability, to wait until if and when Seamonkey 2 (or, even 
 better, from the reporting of the problems, version 2.1, with all the 
 bugs of version 2, fixed) makes it into the package repositories for the 
 Linux distributions.

No idea if there is a question or statement in that.

 
 Also, it would need to be explicitly stated, that Seamonkey v2.x would 
 definitely be able to be installed in parallel with an existing 
 installation of 1.1.x, and, be able to import settings/profiles/history 
 from v1.1.x, on each of the different operating systems, so that the two 
 could be run in parallel (parallel implementation is alsways safest, in 
 software development), to ensure that we do not lose data, as has been 
 reported as having happened with other people who have upgraded from 
 1.1.18 to 2, or who have replaced 1.1.18 with 2.

Or that.

Re: more on zebra stripes

2009-10-27 Thread Dennis Gleeson

I had zebra stripes working with all of these using 1.17 with Stylish. 
Since updating to 1.18 the zebra stripes don't show up in any window 
upon start-up UNLESS I go into the Stylish window and UNCHECK/ReCHECK 
each style. Then it works till I restart Seamonkey.


Can anyone help?

 Then, I installed SeaMonkey 2.0 on Windows XP SP2. I did a custom

 [C:\SeaMonkey\seamonkey.exe].

 At the end, I got a window asking if I wanted to launch SeaMonkey. I

 Surely you have Internet Explorer. Well, I guess, we can argue the

 You might want to install Firefox as a backup. I always keep it handy,
 just in case.

 Remind me what version of Windows you are running. So far, I've got it
 up on XP SP3 with no issues. However, the difference in our experiences
 is that I have not tried installing it without an existing profile from
 which to transfer. I'll give a whirl and see what I discover.

 Lee
 For what it may be worth, I just installed SM 2.0 on XP Pro SP3.
 SeaMonkey had never been installed on this system.  It installed and
 started up with no issues.

 Again, can you clarify exactly what version of Windows you are running?

 Have you checked in the new profile location for parent.lock, as Hartmut 
 suggested?  That would be the obvious culprit.

 Lee
 
 By now, I've complete removed SM 2 and reverted back to SM 1.1.18.
 Perhaps tonight, I might have time to try to install SM 2 in its own
 folder with a distinct folder for its profiles.  It's time for dinner,
 and then I have a 7:00pm PDT meeting to attend.
 

Okay.  I installed SM 2 in a separate folder.  It works!

I'm having trouble migrating profiles.  I'll start a new thread for that

First of all, even if you install SM 2.0 in the default location, it 
will not overwrite the existing SM 1.1.x. It installs to its own 
location, and sets up a new profile in a new location.  As long as you

Therefore, you can select a custom install, and place the program

running Win XP SP3 and want to give SM 2.0 a try. But, the prospect of
being able to run both SM 1.1.x  SM 2.0 for at least a while is
desirable.

Thanks,

2009-10-27 Thread James

I just updated and as far as I can see the entire old Seamonkey is gone 
[overwritten] just like the Seamonkey site tells you it's going to be.  
I just wondered where you got the idea that it wouldn't do what they 
specifically tell you it _will_ do.  Perhaps in a Beta???


Anyway, clicking on my old shortcut to Seamonkey 1.x now loads Seamonkey 
2.0 and I don't see the old one anywhere.  It's probably not a good idea 
to keep telling people they'll still have the old version to fall back 
on when the download page tells you that you won't.  Maybe if you 
installed it in some other location???


I'm using Vista Home Basic 64 bit.

  Then why is this note on the Seamonkey page under Installation?



 

  Installation

  Please note that installing SeaMonkey 2.0 will overwrite your existing
  installation of SeaMonkey. You won't lose any of your bookmarks,
  browsing history or mail and news messages, but some of your
  extensions and other add-ons might not work until updates for them are
  made available.

  First of all, even if you install SM 2.0 in the default location, it
  will not overwrite the existing SM 1.1.x. It installs to its own
  location, and sets up a new profile in a new location. As long as you
  do not uninstall SM 1.1.x, you cn easily run the two independently of
  each other.
   



 

Well, all I can say is that installing 2.0 on Win XP SP3 installed to a
separate SeaMonkey folder in Program Files, leaving 1.1.14 untouched in
the mozilla.org folder.

On the other hand, on Mac OS X, I installed it as instructed to
Applications, which did overwrite 1.1.18.

At least that is what happened to me.

I think we probably need to have someon who knows Windows better then I 
to jump in.

And i don't know much either. My last Win was Win98SE which i only used
for games. But i would start SM calling D:\SeaMonkey2\seamonkey.exe
directly from, uh, there is no xterm in Win, but surely there is a
possibility to execute such a command. :)

StartRun would be the equivalent, I think.

Re: SeaMonkey 2.0 - 64 bit versions - was release

2009-10-27 Thread James

I'm late to the discussion so may have missed important facts but I 
installed Seamonkey 2.0 on a Vista Home Basic 64 bit system tonight.  It 
seems to run great, and all of my email, bookmarks and so on seem to be 
present from the little I've seen so far.


But don't count on having the old installation to fall back on because 
it overwrites it just like the installation instructions tells you it 
will.  It might not too hard to install in at another location and keep 
the old one, however; but I don't know.  I'm not anything like a geek; I 
typically only know enough to get myself into trouble...

Try right clicking on the executable and choose run as administrator

This is exactly my problem as well. I installed SM 2.0 tonight on my WinXP 
Professional SP2 system
that already has 1.1.18 working fine.  After install I was prompted to launch 
SeaMonkey but nothing
happens.  It will not launch - at all - from the desktop icon or directly from 
the .exe file.  No
sign of it in Task Manager processes either.  Fortunately my 1.1.18 is 
untouched, so I'll probably
use that for the foreseeable future.  I'd hate to have to switch to FF and TB 
since I've used the
suite since Navigator 4 but this just isn't working for me.

Oh, the only parent.lock file I found anywhere was in my old SeaMonkey profile, 
none in the SM 2
directories at all.  I deleted it as suggested, but no effect.

SeaMonkey 2.0 - A Mac User's Observations

2009-10-27 Thread Rufus


First and in general - I like it.  But...

...have observed the following in about a hour of using SM 2.0 under OS 
10.6.1 on a 3.06 GHz MacBook Pro with 4 Gig RAM:


1) SeaMonkey asks for the Master Password at startup even though I have 
the Preference set to only ask at the first time it is needed - I'm not 
using SSL, nor do I have SeaMonkey set to display Mail and Newsgroups at 
launch.


2) Holding down the Option key at launch does not bring up the Profile 
Manager.


3) Transfer of my previous SM 1.1.18 Profile information was incomplete 
at launch of SM 2.0 - Bookmarks and Preference settings transferred 
completely; Mail and Newsgroup server settings, Preferences, Folders, 
saved mail, etc. transferred completely, but Newsgroup Subscriptions 
were only displayed for one Server/Account - the last one in the 
Accounts list.  All files appeared in the proper locations in the new 
2.0 Profile, but were only displayed for the last listed Server/Account.


4) Right click (cntrl+click) does not consistently bring up the 
contextual menu for Task Bar options if I right click anywhere within 
the Task Bar - I seem to have to right click below the address bar 
within the Task Bar in order to bring up the contextual menu 
consistently.  This occurs when using the (new) default theme, and is 
less annoying in the Mail and Newsgroup windows - probably because there 
is more area to click within (no address line).  Clicks appear to be 
ignored within the line where the window title appears, upon comparison.

 Houston, do we have a problem?


 Well, most people are installing with no problem, but it is brand new
 software,so there are bound to be some glitches.

 First of all, even if you install SM 2.0 in the default location, it
 will not overwrite the existing SM 1.1.x. It installs to its own
 location, and sets up a new profile in a new location.  As long as you
 do not uninstall SM 1.1.x, you cn easily run the two independently of
 each other.

 Therefore, you can select a custom install, and place the program
 wherever you like.  If something goes wrong, you can always run SM
 1.1.x, and fix the 2.0 install at your convenience.  Most likely,
 nothing will go wrong.

You could upload it to your webspace.


Configure arguments
--enable-application=suite --enable-startup-notification
--enable-calendar --enable-application=../suite

That could help others who which to compile by themselves.
