Did you try disabling them and restarting SeaMonkey? I'm not familiar
with LookOut+, but it sounds like something to do with interacting with
MS Outlook. A quick look mentions it doing something with iCalendar
(ics) files, so may well interfere with Lightning in some way.
I just tried disabling extensions but it didn't change anything. It
still doesn't work.
The previous version of Lightning worked just fine with them
It's possible that a new version of Lightning or one of those may have
introduced a conflict. If disabling those add-ons allows Lightning to
work, that would be useful information for the developers of the add-ons
involved, and a possible workaround while you wait for a fix.
Safe mode is no use here, since it disables all add-ons, but it may be
worth creating a new profile and see if Lightning works there. Tools >
Switch Profile > Manage Profiles, create a new profile then use it.
You
might also need to install lightning into that profile. This may
not be
a permanent solution, but at least gives information as to whether
it's
something in your profile causing the problem. You can switch back to
your usual profile (usually named "default") after trying this.
I forgot to mention I created a new profile. I had to load Lightning
into it. It has the same problem as the original.
About the only other thing I can think to try is to back up your profile
(just in case), uninstall SeaMonkey, and reinstall using the latest
installer. That might fix something which a series of updates hasn't
properly applied.
The problem with your suggestion is that uninstalling SM will NOT delete
the SM profile. When you re-install SM it will find the old profile and
use it. So, if the issue is with the profile you've accomplished nothing.
The right way to do it is to create a new "plain" profile and direct SM
to use it. Then, one-by-one, add back the extensions, restart, test,
and see if the issue returns. Then you have the culprit.
I recently cured a months-long performance issue in SM by deleting all
profiles and files, creating a new one, and painstakingly recreating all
of my mail and news accounts. Problem solved.
No idea to this day what the issue was but it's gone.
