My MAC crashed and left thunderbird in a weird state. First it complained about only a single copy being allowed to run. I removed .parentlock file. Then thunderbird opened and showed menus and buttons but no messages or folders. Some buttons work. But when I click Thunderbird->Preferences nothing happens. Please help me read my emails. Thank you.
