I have all my passwords stored on Firefox on my macbook pro. When I follow the instructions to sync my passwords on the Firefox app on my phone, it keeps rejecting my primary password, saying it is incorrect. I have deleted the app and re-installed it on my phone, but it still does not work. Why will my account not open on my iphone app? Thank you!

I've used thunderbird for a few years, but I think a recent change in outlook.com has messed things up.

My account is detected to use oath2 for authorization, but when I click "done", it tries for a while and then say "unable to log into serve".

What I expect is that it would bring up a web browser or something so I could do the oath dance to enter my credentials, but that doesn't happen.

Trying out Thunderbird for new mac, but it won't properly import my mac Mail mailboxes from my older mac

I'm trying to see whether Thunderbird may work for me.

Situation: I've been using a 2012 mac mini, now upgrading to a M1 mac mini.

I have used the mac's "MAIL" program for over a decade. Some of its folders are pretty large.

For reasons not important here, I can't use the apple "migration assistant", and have tried to migrate the folders to the now-current Mail program... and they utterly fail.

Thus, since I liked the look of Thunderbird, I figured I'd see if IT could import the mailboxes. Short answer, not well enough.

I've read up on it, tried various ways, added the import/export extention; of course the program will NOT import mailboxes directly from mac Mail despite claiming to... a known flaw... but it will also not import the MBOX files and then use them.

It does seem to import the whole file, in that if I check the resources for thunderbird in the user file, I see that one test mailbox has indeed kept the full 2.15gb capacity... but rather than showing the roughly 37,000 emails in that file, it only shows about 6,000. I've tried it multiple times, and have gotten different file totals between 5100 and 6300 total.

Any workaround, or is Thunderbird not for me?

Thanks for any advice.

I've gone through most of the questions asked regarding this and have tried to follow all of the directions but none of them work. Let me begin by saying this is the worst time I've ever had at migrating from an old computer to a new computer using TB ever. EVER! This is the worst. I am moving from an ASUS Win11 to a HP Win11 so there shouldn't be that much of a problem. I've done this more than a few times so I know the drill of copying the %appdata% from one place to another. I have installed uninstalled deleted reinstalled, uninstalled reinstalled deleted three times and keep getting the same problem and have been doing this going on three days. I donated to get his copy and am about to ask for my donation back if I don't get a very simple answer. I keep getting that error message no matter what I do. I need a very simple walk through on how to get what I am able to save from the old computer into the new computer without a lot of magic and rain dancing and click here and delete this and see if this sticks. I need a very simple take your profile.zip and unpak it here then open TB and do this. PERIOD. The profile is on the same computer not a server. If I cannot get a quick down and dirty answer please just tell me and I'll ask for my donation back and move to MS outlook and deal with their FU'ed POS. I really don't know why TB has taken a turn for the worst here. But it's not looking good IMHO.

Hi, Last week, my Thunderbird just stopped showing new incoming mail. I have tried many, many times to get it up and running with my new emails. I am with Telstra as my internet provider, running Windows 11 and Norton360. I am not able to send either. All my folders are OK, and I have not lost any content. I am able to see new emails on my Telstra email but I prefer to have Thunderbird. Please advise what to do. Ryan

I need to migrate the complete profile (all settings, bookmarks, passwords etc) from a snap install to an apt install on the same system. Currently I have both versions installed, but i want to remove the abomination that is snap..

I tried copying ~/snap/firefox/common/.mozilla/firefox files to ~/.mozilla/firefox but that doesnt seem to work. Since this is a multi-user system i dont want to rely on mozilla accounts to sync everything to the cloud.

What do i need to do in order to migrate all the data from one install to another?
