Re: Best size for SM Cache ?

Been having problems with cursor Freezing up.  Total Lockup.
Have to kill compuker and restart.   I figured it was the amount of "Free
Space" on my hard drive, so I moved a lot of Picture Files to a Thumbdrive.

Of a 250 GB Solid State Drive I now have ~ 40 GB has been free'd up.

Also my Cache size was determined by SM.   So I SET the max Cache Size
to 4 GB.    Huge, but I don't know what else to do to stop the Mouse Cursor
Freeze Ups.   HP Optical Mouse.  Windows 7 with 'Updates" turned OFF.
Virus and Trojan free (Malwarebytes).  Could I be going too fast transferring ?

So - is a possible of 4 GB of Cache Good ?

Any suggestions of why Cursor freezes up.  Usually when I am viewing graphics
files or about to save them.  Always happens when using SMand Paint.net and
GraphicsWorkShop Pro (Alchemy Mindworks).  Usually Windows Explorer on, too.

DoctorBill



have you tried
a different mouse
updated, reinstalled drivers
if usb, try another port

Some sites mistakenly interpret various forms of tracking protection as ad blocking.  Have a 
look at your privacy and cookie settings to see if you have any privacy measures set up that 
might be triggering these warnings.


Having said that, you may not be able to find a collection of settings that provides you 
with what you feel to be an acceptable level of privacy protection and yet is compatible 
with some of these sites.  You may have to set up a couple of browser profiles - one for 
general browsing, with privacy settings enabled, and another one with no privacy settings 
enabled so that you can browse these sites that have aggressive anti-adblocking measures in 
place.




you email reminded me
I have AVG and Malwarebytes running
those may be interpreted as ad block

sm / ff - ebay

[rjkrjk]

been using SM for ebay for many years with any problems
(there have been 1 or 2 over the years, but nothing major)

today, I attempted to create a return of an item
selected return, and picked one of the various options why
I was returning the item, hit enter. There was a box at the bottom of
the page page that should have lit up, and taken me to the next page
it didnt

SM / Ebay just sits there, no action after I made the selection.
reloaded page, still nothing.

signed out,and signed in with FF
proceeded to do the same as above with FF

after selecting the reason, ebay responds, with next
and takes me to the next page, where I confirm the return and provide
some more detail. It accepts that info and provides me with their next step,
advising me that a email will follow

not really sure if it's ebay or SM that is really the problem

Then off to the right is a "Print to File" box

That's it.  No idea what the last two are.

what'sa your DEFAULT Printer, I assume Brother
once you select print to file, a box comes up and asks for the location

at least thats what happens in win7 pro

Im kinda sure any ms os will ask where you want the file saved to

Yes, I saw your image.  However, that is not what I requested.  In the
image, the top has a Print button followed by a Page Setup button.
Select the Page Setup button.

You will get a smaller window with two tabs.  One tab is Format &
Options.  The other tab is Margins & Header/Footer.  I requested you
tell us -- in text not with an image -- what you see on the Format &
Options tab.  While you are doing that, you might as well also tell us
what you see on the Margins & Header/Footer tab.

By the way, the reason I request text and not an image is that the
operation of this newsgroup often filters out attachments, including
images.  As an alternative, you can create images and upload them to
some server.  In that case, indicate the URI (Web address) of the images.

The same thing happens to me occasionally -- here's my solution:

Enter "about:config"

Search for "print"

Look in the "value" column for any printers that are inexplicably set for the wrong width 
and height (in your case, 1" x 6")


Double-click those rows and set the correct width and height

I know Avira for a long time (and did use it also):

This is not unusual nowadays, so always check your download sources!

P.S: Having said that I also must note that nowadays "Windows Defender"

Google has changed a few things in the last few days.
IMO, they did initial testing a few weeks ago.
My user string does not have your problem in SM on this machine,
but the same string in FF on a different machine does what you said.
On both machines Google has eliminated the URL that bypasses their
"search help" so that now every letter I type gets sent to Google
which then suggests search words.  I hate that and their reporting home.

Do you just want to "advertise Firefox compatibility"? In that case:

Edit | Preferences | Advanced | HTTP Networking:
[x] Advertise Firefox compatibility.

This will get you a user agent string that includes both SeaMonkey and Firefox versions, 
like this:


Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:52.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/52.0 
SeaMonkey/2.49.2

But if you want to "spoof Firefox" by pretending to be using that and eliminating all 
mention of SeaMonkey, you need one of the other options for modifying the UA string, such as 
the various add-ons or configuration settings. Others are more expert on those than I.

Re: SeaMonkey Project is pretty much dead.

[rjkrjk]

a rather strong statement
not dead for me, very much alive and working very well.

it just may be YOUR setup that is not working
try safe mode

a question is much better than your statement

I believe we are looking at the final days of SeaMonkey.

YouTube has not worked in several months without switching to the Old Version 
of YT. Once
they force the switch on you, I won't be able to load YT without it freezing 
and locking up
when using scripts.

And Yahoo Mail no longer works now that they've forced you to the newer version 
of their
mail system. I tried to download and install the extension User Agent Switcher, 
and guess
what? SeaMonkey is not compatible with the current version of that.. no 
surprise.

I'm guessing this browser will go out the same way the Mozilla Browser did.. 
and that sucks,
because I've used Mozilla and SeaMonkey for most of my history on the internet.

FF worked


The User Agent string are different ...
FF say: I am FF
SM say: I am SM and also I am FF


that's surely the initial problemthere are probably other issues after that

I just got off the phone with AX, and their "tech support" person

he claims that NO CHANGES have been made to the AX website for several months,
and that no on else has called them about any problem mentioned above

he claims that IE, Chrome, FF, Opera all work just fine with their site
(he's not heard of SM)

I did manage to pay the monthly amount, but needed to click on other options 
other than my acct
sorta backdoor, but eventually got to my acct and made the payment

seems there are several people who also encountered this experience
anyone have a fix for this, rather than a work around ??

Likely point 3 in the known issues in the 2.48 release notes:

https://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/seamonkey2.48/


My understanding is that the 'steps to reproduce' requires one to have
only the email client running, open the browser from the email client
and then try to login somewhere.

So the work-around is to open the browser, from there open email/news
reader/whatever **and leave the browser window open** - correct?


leave broswer open ONLY.that worked for me.
(as well as using firefox)













Fix will be in 2.49.1.

Maybe we should just drop the release notes and tell everyone to open a
lenghty thread in one of the support groups if he7she/it runs into a known
problem :)


I would have never guessed that "you may no longer be prompted for
authentication in certain scenarios" meant getting a 401 error when
trying to login somewhere.  In my mind, not being prompted for
authentication means not getting the userid/password popup.

Okay so you had both an existing browser window and email windows open, then I 
would say
that the previous URL you were at the video crashed the flash plugin. That is 
not a too
uncommon thing. The problem is flash the plugin container, not really a 
SeaMonkey bug. It
happens in Firefox and crashes FireFox's plugin container too. It is just with 
Firefox the
browser window just closes there no mail window (Thunderbird is separate) to 
remain open.


I realize it's more of a adobe shockwave problem, since Ive seen it in both SM

kinda annoying, to say the least

Do not make the popup larger.  Make it smaller.

The blue top is the title bar.  Place your cursor as high as you can on
the popup's title bar and try dragging the top edge down, reducing the
height of the popup.  Then place your cursor within the title bar -- not
at the top edge -- and drag the popup upwards.  This should expose the
bottom of the popup.  You might then get a vertical scroll bar to view
the entire content of the popup.

If this does not work, try the following.  Leave the EBay Web site.

I almost *always* see this when a site fires up some kind of Flash
content. Make sure your Flash is up to date and also give the 2.39
release from here a try:
https://l10n.mozilla-community.org/~akalla/unofficial/seamonkey/nightly/

You didn't specify 32 or 64 bit Seamonkey but I assume you're on
32-bit so look for it in /latest-comm-release-windows32/. You'll
likely be using Seamonkey-2.39.en-US.win32.installer.exe.

confuse matters, some links actually work as they should.

Everything appears to work properly under IE.


Everything works fine for me.

I followed all 10 Most Popular links and they all took me to the expected

Will try again under XP on another computer. My Linux SM recently decided to 
follow
its partition into oblivion.


Spoke too soon. All of the Most Popular links on the home page do work 
correctly
(although the picture/headline links are still aimed differently). But if you 
go to
any other page, US  Canada, for example, the Most Popular links do behave as 
I
described.



At http://www.bbc.com/news/world/us_and_canada, all Most Popular from
US and Canada links -- those listed with days of the week -- send me to
the story US to exhume remains of Pearl Harbor dead for
identification.  Even the header Most Popular from US and Canada
itself is a link to that page.

At the US to exhume remains of Pearl Harbor dead for identification
page, however, the links under Most Popular -- no from US and Canada
in the header, no days of the week, and the header itself not a link --
work as intended.

Obviously, the problem is with the BBC's Web site and not with
SeaMonkey.  The problem should be reported to the BBC and not here.



keep in mind that BBC site ALSO made some rather dramatic changes to their site 
recently
( which I really dont like, which I did mention to them), the combination may be the cause

So... I upgraded to v.2.32 and suddenly Youtube videos have no sound.

Any ideas?


WFM.


What is WFM?


Do other Flash videos played from within SeaMonkey have sound, or is it
just YouTube? If all Flash is silent in SM:

1) Mouse over the speaker icon (volume control) at the lower left of a
YouTube video and make sure it's not muted (YouTube uses a cookie to
remember your volume setting from vid to vid); if that doesn't help,


I feel really really (really) stupid.  That was it.  I have a feeling
this must relate to WFM

Thanks!!

WFM = works for me

Don't feel stupid about WFM.  Too many people are now using their own
acronyms in place of English phrases because of Twitter and other
texting systems.  Usually, only those who create such acronyms know what
they mean.

A frequent participant in Mozilla newsgroups is Tanstaafl.  That is not
someone's name; that is an acronym for There ain't no such thing as a
free lunch.  I also see WTF and ROTFLMAO.  Here, SM is NOT sadism and
masochism; it is SeaMonkey.  TB is not tuberculosis; it is Thunderbird.

Newsgroup messages are not Twitter tweets.  We all could understand the
discussions better if participants used English (or their native
language) and not acronyms.

Re: Moving SM to a New PC/New OS

I need to move my SM v.2.30 files from an XP system to a newer Win 7 system. 
What is the
easiest way to do this?

It seems to me that if I do a new install of SM v.2.30 on the Win 7 machine, it 
seems
logical I could then copy the existing v.2.30 files on my XP machine and paste 
them over the
newly-installed v.2.30 files on the Win7 machine.

Is this approach likely to work?  Is there some better (and hopefully easier) 
to accomplish
such a move?  I don't want to change anything about how my SM v.2.30 is 
working, just move it.

Thanks, in advance, for any and all advice, guidance, and/or suggestions.

I've been with SeaMonkey since the Netscape days, and I have installed it in

I have a new Win 7 Pro SP1 64 bit computer into which I want to install a clone 
of my present Win 7 Pro SP1 64 bit installation of SeaMonkey 2.26. Once 
SeaMonkey is working the same in both computers, I plan to use GoodSync to keep 
the mail files the same. I use Goodsync now in that manner, except that the 
recipient computer runs XP; the new Win 7 computer will take the place of the 
XP computer.

I recall seeing a reference to on-line cloning instructions, but I can't find 
it now.

I suspect I should start by installing SeaMonkey 2.26 in the new computer, but 
I will hold off until I get guidance from this knowledgeable group. Help

Default is 10,000 ms, or 10 seconds. Reducing it to 5,000 should come to 5 
seconds, right? I
can definitely tell those apart.

But you're definitely right that humans can't tell between 5 and 10 ms; at best 
we can order
events that are 20-25 ms apart (think of a runner safe or out at first, or a

Do NOT extract the files from within the XPI file.  Instead, view the
install.rdf file in a text editor application.  (Winzip provides that
capability.)  Edit the viewed file and use the save (not save-as)
operation of the editor.  When you close the editor, you might be asked
whether you want to save the result back into the XPI file; the answer
is yes.  Then you install the extension in SeaMonkey from the XPI file
via the Add-ons Manager, or you drag-and-drop the XPI file into the
SeaMonkey rendering window.

Print preview works fine.

Doesn't print from preview either.


Do you get an error message? The print preview uses the same print

But first try Help = Restart with addons disabled then see if it prints.
