Every time I open firefox it asks me to sign in to my profile. When I do, I have lost all of my bookmarks etc.

I then go into about:profiles and have to delete multiple profiles that have appeared and set my original one to default, which works fine and i have all my bookmarks back. However as soon as I switch my macbook off and on again, I am back to square one and have to delete old profiles and set my old one to default. This is incredibly frustrating.

How to combine two profiles into one, or move the email account from one profile into the other profile so as to preserve all account settings, messages, etc?

I am using Thunderbird 60.9.1 (32-bit). I have two profiles, each with one email account. I would like to combine the two profiles so that I can access either email account without having to close Thunderbird and reopen it in a different profile. Alternatively, I would like to move one email account into the other profile so as to combine them. And of course I want to preserve all the settings, email messages, etc, for each account. How can I do this, and if there is more than one way, what is the best way?

Before updating McOS 14 to McOS15 ('Catalina') Apple recommends to check all programmes with regard to their 64bit-ability. When using Go64-software to pre-check this it diagnoses that Thunderbird (64-bit version 68.2.2) has a file 'libxpcom_core.dylib' could cause problems, depending on how the app handles situations where its 32-bit components would normally be used and recommends to "check for a more recent version or contact the application's developer for more information!?

Built new Win 10 PC. Downloaded and installed T'Bird, it would not pick up my numerous folders on base ATT/Yahoo mail. Tried all day to move my profile from the old C: drive, now I have really screwed up something in trying to copy in the last used profile from my Win 7 PC drive.
Uninstalled and downloaded again, T'Bird will not load, says "Your Thunderbird profile cannot be loaded. It must be missing or inaccessible." There are 2 profiles in C:\Users>"myname">AppData>Roaming>Thunderbird>Profiles
How do I fix this, I cannot stand Yahoo mail!
Thanks.

I have three computers and three mail accounts. I had to completely setup computer 1 from scratch (Win10 Pro 63-Bit). Unfortunately mail account A of the three mail accounts on computer 1 opens completely empty while the other two mail accounts are accessible from this computer.
Copying the profile.ini from computer 2 to computer 1 does not help either (mail accounts are stored on a NAS, therefore the path to the mail accounts is the same).
The profiles.ini files of the two computers are completely the same.
What is wrong, how can I fix the problem?
Any more information needed?
Thank you for your help, Holger

How do I get TB to see my old TB Inbox and its folders in new TB v68.2.2 install and Profile migration.

I've stored my Thunderbird (TB) profile and mail on a backed-up non-system internal HDD since 2004.
Recently, I abandoned Windows 7 and clean installed Windows 10 and upgraded to TB v.68.2.2.
I used my tried an true method of migrating my Windows 7 TB profile folder into the new TB installation. That is, in Win10 create a new profile in TB profile manager, erase that profile's files and replace with the previous version TB profile's files. This technique has worked for the past 15 years with every new computer and/or installation of TB. BUT not this time.
Now in my new TB install I can access my previous Address Book, Drafts, Sent mail, and Junk mail. But I can't seem to see or access my previous Inbox and all the mail in it and its folders. Via File Explorer I can see the previous inbox and all of its folders right where they're supposed to be in F:\Files\Technical\Settings\TBird Mail\myname\Mail\Inbox.sbd\. But how do I bring them into TB?
Any help in how to bring the previous inbox and its contents into TB would be greatly appreciated.

I just came across this: TB Ver. 60.9.1. (Win 32-Bit - even though it is accidentally on a 64-Bit Computer and Windows 10 Pro 64-Bit Version) says it is up to date if I manually ask it to check for updates (Options, Advanced, Update ....)
What is wrong here, I think Vers. 68.2.2 is the current version, no matter which operating system.

Thunderbird won't import local messages from Apple Mail

Hello! Migrating to Thunderbird 68.2.2 and I'm having a problem importing local messages on my MacBook Pro running 10.15.1. Tools > Import > Mail > Apple Mail leads to a message saying "Mail was successful imported from Apple Mail. No mailboxes were found to import." Mail, however, does have two local folders of mail showing.
I tried to install the ImportExportTools NG 4.0.4 add-on to see if that would help, but selecting Add to Thunderbird doesn't seem to do anything.
Any assistance importing my messages would be much appreciated! Thanks!
