I followed the recommended steps for migrating profiles exactly, but when I open up Firefox I have nothing from my old profile. Why is there not a simple migration solution?

The migration process is simple. I have 3 versions of Firefox on my laptop and when I log into the Firefox account all my add-ons and bookmarks start loading automatically. The same thing happens when I log into my account on another computer... everything just starts loading.

So can you please explain exactly what you are doing?

Never mind, I must have done something wrong at one point. Third time was the charm
