I can't Import bookmarks from chrome, the option is missing. Everything else worked, and the option is not "hidden", when I clicked to import bookmarks were not imported.

Good evening. This might be a tough one and not sure if it is even possible. I have had Firefox on my Dell Desktop for about 6 years. Over that time I have made many tweaks via about:config to get it working and looking as great as can be. I did just purchase a new HP desktop and downloaded and synced Firefox. I was also able to set up the new PC next to the old one to make sure each settings menu is exact. But the appearance is off on so many levels. I have no idea how many tweaks I have made over the years but have no idea exactly where to start. I did not know if there was any way on the older PC with those tweaks made to get a log of some sort of what I changed on that Firefox.

Even with the settings menu exact in both versions I cannot figure out what changes I had made. It's not many but enough. I know it is crazy but here is 2 screenshots. The one on the right, the smaller one in general is from the old PC and how I want it to look. I have tried tweaking zoom and text on the new PC and it has been a disaster, hence looking here.

Thanks in advance.

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!
