Dear Friend: Please see my plea for help directed to Mr. Bergsagel. I subscribed to the list yesterday, but I'm not exactly sure how it works. Please assist if possible by sending an email to [email protected].
Thank you so much!

I am not an extremely sophisticated user. I recently got a new Samsung Galaxy S 5 phone and a new Samsung Galaxy Tab 4. On Saturday, I was attempting to get the tablet to sync properly and I thought I had done that. However, since the middle of the afternoon on Saturday, I have not been able to send or receive emails on my laptop (a Think Pad) via SeaMonkey email client. I have spent HOURS on the phone with AT&T to no avail. They keep telling me to change the incoming and outgoing server addresses, but they all ended up restoring them to the previous addresses. When I look at the bottom of the SeaMonkey email window, it shows, "AT&T Mail: Connected to inbound.att.net . . .", but it does not seem to login or take my password. Or, conversely, it won't log out and therefore won't let me log back in -- I'm not sure. Obviously, I am still getting my email on my tablet and my phone, and I can go to the AT&T webmail (which I hate). I am really at a loss for what to try next. I looked into the task manager to see if there was something obvious I could do, but it looked like Greek to me. I should say I also uninstalled and reinstalled SeaMonkey and that did no good. I have more than once downed and rebooted the modem and router, but since I'm surfing fine, that does not seem to be the issue. Any assistance you can give would be hugely appreciated. Since there has been discussion about SeaMonkey 2.30, I should say that when this first happened, I had not updated to 2.30 although at some juncture over this weekend, I did upgrade to 2.30. I have thought about doing a system restore to Friday, but not only have I updated SeaMonkey, I updated Java and Adobe FlashPlayer since then, too. I just now figured out how to connect the phone and the tablet to the computer so that I can use the laptop's keyboard to type emails and that is enormously helpful, but still . . .. I haven't yet figured out how to get files downloaded from email into the table sent over to the laptop. And, for me, as a lowly lawyer, that is a big problem. Thank you, Jamie Sent via the Samsung Galaxy Tab® 4, an AT&T 4G LTE tablet. -------- Original message -------- From: Paul Bergsagel <[email protected]> Date:10/21/2014 8:31 PM (GMT-06:00) To: [email protected] Subject: Solution: Re: Browser Windows go Black when 2.30 update installs [email protected] wrote: > When Seamonkey 2.30 update installs, the browser window and the email tool go > black.

It appears that something changed in the way hardware acceleration operates. If you experience a black window, you need to turn off hardware acceleration. To turn off hardware acceleration you may have to revert to a previous version of SeaMonkey, since you can't use a browser with a black window. Goto preferences->appearance->content and uncheck the box "use hardware acceleration". _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
