I'm trying to import my bookmarks from an HTML file. They say to click the menu button but there is NO menu button with 3 horizontal stripes. I'm using a Chromebook laptop.

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've tried to import all the passwords I had saved on Brave, which I am leaving. There's one way which is in Firefox itself, where the little icons spin and it says passwords and other things have been saved. But the passwords have not come over. I've gone to several AI engines, and they have me create HTML or .csv files, but these aren't working either. When I tell AI this, I get suggestions so complicated I'd have to be an expert to use.

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.

I have everything I need from my old machine except my e-mail filters. If I copy the whole profile I will lose all of the sent messages and saved messages I have generated since I got Thunderbird up and running on my new machine.

Hello, My main computer died and I am trying to setup Mozilla on a spare laptop. I exported settings from my mobile device but am not seeing a way to import them into the desktop. It created a k9s file but it is not giving that option. What am I doing wrong??

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?
