I have exported my bookmarks from Brave, which are in HTML format. I cannot find where you can import them into Firefox, I am using the Android version.

I would also like to know where the private window is so I can use YouTube.

I have followed the instructions for transferring the Thunderbird profile from my old computer to my new computer. However, the updates do not come across. I don’t get all of the folders that I created on the old computer. The email works fine.

I can't find the three horizontal bars to be able to access any menu, to enable me to import the passwords and bookmarks from chrome. If there's no simple solution to this, I will simply discard Firefox. All I find is three dots on the top corner and if I access settings there there are no options to import anything.

The import function does not work. I exported a Thunderbird profile in its entirety into a zip file that is only 127 megabytes when extracted. When I go to import the Thunderbird profile, I select the ZIP file, import, and it restarts, and nothing happens.

I have tried the method of going to the profile folder, manually copying the files from the extracted profile, and pasting them into the profile folder and overwriting all of the existing files, which will work for a few seconds- it briefly shows all the emails, and then they disappear. The top of the inbox indicates the correct number of emails, but no emails show up in the inbox, and when I restart Thunderbird, everything disappears.

I just deleted the folder C:\Users\alan\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird and replaced it with a backup I made a few days ago. To my surprise, when I opened Thunderbird, I could see messages that I'd downloaded today. What is going on?

The summary says it all. My T-bird acc't combines both outlook and gmail and now I wish to transfer the data into a new T-Bird (account?) on a new computer. I'm going from an ASUS Zenbook to a HP Omnibook AI.

Many thanks ! I should sign my name as "Totally Lost". Regards, Andre

I downloaded Thunderbird to my new machine, followed instructions to copy the Profile Folder from the old machine and pasted to the new machine. I didn't get a message asking whether I wanted to replace the data on the new machine. When I started Thunderbird, I am not seeing all the data I expected - no address book, only 200+ emails, no sent emails. What did I do wrong?

My Thunderbird Desktop Version 140.9.0esr 64 bit. Help please. Installed Mobile T'bird on android mobile. On Desktop (MS Win11) T'Bird followed Settings - Export to Mobile - included all email accounts and Passwords - Export resulting in pop up box requesting Pin number. Don’t know a Pin nor can find a Pin nor find Settings - Accounts - Sign in options to change it.

Having tried more than a dozen sets of downloaded instructions, including those from Mozilla Thunderbird and Apple, I have become increasingly frustrated and convinced that Thunderbird doesn't work on a MAC. Can you offer any "official" instructions? Thank you!

I am a regular Firefox user and I really appreciate the security and privacy features you provide. I would like to request a new feature that would make password management even more convenient: the ability to import saved passwords from other browsers or from a password file (for example, a CSV or JSON export) directly into Firefox.

At the moment, when switching from another browser or setting up a new device, I have to either manually enter each password or rely on third‑party tools, which can be time‑consuming and less secure. If Firefox allowed importing passwords from common formats, it would greatly improve the user experience and make it easier to move to Firefox without losing existing login data.

I understand that this must be done with strong security checks, such as requiring the user to confirm each imported login and ensuring that the process is encrypted and safe. If this feature is not planned yet, I kindly ask you to consider it for a future release.

Thank you for your hard work and for listening to user feedback.

I want to transfer my saved bookmarks and collections from firefox to ironfox...ON THE SAME DEVICE.

How is this possible?

I am running Thunderbird 140.8.1esr on macOS Tahoe 26.3

I created an IMAP account in Thunderbird to replace a POP account

I want to copy the Thunderbird message filters from the POP account to the IMAP account

I read articles on Mozilla Support and these said to copy the msgFilterRules.dat file but I cannot find this file

How can I copy the message filters?

I'm reading this> https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/thunderbird-export#thunderbird:linux:tb148 Looks great but all of my messages sit on IMAP servers and I don´t need a backup of those. I _do_ need a backup of settings, passwords, pgp keys, to move to another workstation. It is unclear what exactly is exported.

I tried transferring TB to new computer, nothing has worked. w11 TB148. Manually didn't work, tried coping from Troubleshooting Information/profiles. I don't know why there are 2 TB's? Under local and roaming but I tried. The video is out of date. It's a new install of TB so it opens with create account, both computers W11 and TG148! Please somebody tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks.

I have a new PC and want to copy my existing filters on to my new PC. I have 116 filters set up and do not want to have to manually add them. I tried exporting my profile from my old PC but it is 38Gb
