Can't scan QR code from desktop to import settings(mobile). Upon opening Thunderbird for Android I'm shown a window that asks 'Already using Thunderbird on Desktop?' My answer: Yes! There is also a blue button that states 'Import Settings' in the afore mentioned window. I click on the Import Settings button as I have the QR code displayed on my desktop monitor. The next thing I see on my Android (Pixel Pro 10XL) is basically just a picture taking screen where it states: 'Align the QR code provided from Thunderbird Desktop' My problem: there is nothing to line it up with. No little 90' ticks used to outline the corners of a square, nothing. It just looks the same as if I were using the camera app (no little ticks outlining corners of square). So in this case there is nothing in which to line up.! I'm using Thunderbird 151.0 on my desktop and have successfully used the QR scanning on my phone in the past. I can't bypass this window as this is my first time using the app on my phone. Am I doing something stupidly wrong? Any help to resolve this problem would be awesome! Thanks *** as I eluded to earlier, I can't get into Thunderbird on my phone so I don't have the version. So I'll just reiterate my desktop version to fill out this form.

i just want to copy firefox setting into flash memory or PC desktop instead of sync to cloud. i usually uninstall and reinstall firefox then i need to select setting manually which takes time.

setting i select after reinstall are: General setting , privacy and security setting, advance setting.

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??
