    Ow here you are ,
    so it is a problem of sync thunderbird with m8.
    MM i never tried it to be honest so i can not say immediatly what to do.

    I would suggest to ask the question @ mint linux user forum
    Linux Mint Forums • Index page

    If this does not lead anywhere, have a look on ubuntu/debian forums.
    This is because Linux mint is based on ubuntu series and then again ubuntu series is based on debian source.


    Also have a look here



    ps as i said, nice to see you tried it, Mint linux is one of the best distro´s out there.

    just love it

    Hi everyone,
    if u use Thunderbird and want to sync with your M8, there is something else then ActiveSync.
    U can use Lightning with Thunderbird for your Contacts, Mails and Events.
    With
    FinchSync Home
    You can synchronize that with your Phone.

    Ill test it the next days and post Results, but it should work since many People used it.

    notcosi, are you still running mint? did you managed it to sync?


    deinabi, thanks, it should work for windows as there was an older topic about it somewhere on the forum.

    Hi,
    i currently have the problem, that if i open the application on the meizu i cannot type anything in the fields where i need to type the server adress username pw etc.
    I can "klick" in that field and the cursor blinks but the keyboard does not appear..
    i use the new firmware (leak 24.12.) is it bcs of that?

    Install the "keyboard pop-up" (download section)...and when you need the keyboard, you set f.ex. with "Maintan" (download section), where to touch the screen or any button you have, to pop up the keyboard!-easy

    Hi and thanks, its nice to know about these apps, but unfortunately it seems that maintain is not working with the leak release fw that i am using, becaus when i enter some folders in which i want to chose an *.exe file to execute with a certain gestic it just crashes..

    it seems like i should wait for the final fw release ^^
