When I open the settings in Firefox on my chromebook, I don't have a option to import data at all. It's just missing. I keep looking up how to do it, and it keeps telling me to go to settings, under general find the import data, and select chrome. But there is no import button at all.

Hello, I'm getting a new PC next week and I am concerned how to install Thunderbird in the new PC. And is there anything I need to do in the old PC to make the move smooth so it continues to work.

Thank you for your time and efforts ahead of time.

Hello

I have Thunderbird set up on my Android phone and I’d like to transfer the settings to my desktop (Linux Mint) Thunderbird.

The only export option that I can find on Android produces a .k9s file but I can’t find any way to load that in to Thunderbird desktop (although it worked great going from Android to Android).

There seems to be plenty of Help to go from Desktop to Android but nothing about going the other way.

There’s always the option to enter the IMAP ans SMTP settings manually but, surely, there’s a better way?

I just installed Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS to an old computer and I want to export my profiles and contacts from my other Windows computer Thunderbird, over to the new Linux version of Thunderbird. I suppose the other option is to re-import from Gmail contacts. Please advise. As others migrate from Windows to Linux this could be a common question.

I have a new windows 11 laptop. Transferring from a windows 10 laptop. I have installed Thunderbird on new machine. It is also my email on old machine. I have clicked on import within Thunderbird. The instruction is to go to C:/Users/myusername/AppData/Roaming/Thunderbird/Profiles/b4553kng.default NB I can't find backslash on my keyboard, so I'm using / When I look in myusername, there is no folder called AppData There is a folder called Roaming, but it just has folders Intel/Wireless, which is empty. In C: Program Files, there is a folder called Mozilla Thunderbird, but it has no folder called Profiles. I have seached C: for any folder called AppData, but no results. Can anyone help?

I've saved my thunderbird data from Win10 computer following the instructions but when I copy the file to the new computer win11 it doesn't seem to work I'm not sure whats happening. The process I followed is install thunderbird, go to help menu, trouble shooting , open file (profile), close thunderbird, go up 3 levels to roaming, then paste the copied file in the thunderbird file and close. then open thunderbird. It still wants me to set my account up and there is no data. Is there something I'm missing. Thanks for any help in advance. Cheers Stuart
