bold texti have a thunderbird profile on exterior drive I have installed linux mint on my PC but cannot locate the profile to use my old TB profile -either by replacing it or renaming the old profile for the linux one

Bought a new Windows 11 computer. What sort of problems may I have transferring my data from Windows 7 Vista to windows 11. Any suggestions or instruction will be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much for your help..

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 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.
