Thunderbird can't find the settings of my gmail account. I have no anti-virus or firewall installed. Mac OS 10.13.5
Similar problem to other users, but I can't get beyond the screen (attached). There seems no way to set up the account manually. Thanks.

I migrated to a new pc (WIN10 to WIN10) an I have 4 different "personalities" in my profile. For 3 of the 4 email personality accounts the message in the sent folder carried over and on my main email account I can see in the sent folder the subject and date in the "sent" folder - but the body of the email that I sent is not there. Is there a "sent" file I can copy from the first pc and just bring over those sent files again with content?

I've been running an ancient version of MS Outlook (2007) and it's got some issues that can't be resolved so I thought I'd give Thunderbird a try. Doing some reading, it appears that I *can* import using TBird v38.1 as newer versions seem to crash on import. Now, having said that, the articles I've been reading are several years old. Is there a newer version that will actually work? I 'shotgun' downloaded and installed a couple versions in the 50s and 60s revs and all of them look like they're going to work and then pop up a message that there is nothing to import.
Trying 38.1, it gets about 98-99% through and just hangs. I've let the latest attempt sit for a couple hours at the stuck point and I don't think anything is going on. The process shows 0% CPU usage and there's no disk activity associated with the Thunderbird process either...
Lastly, I read that the latest version of Thunderbird is NOT an upgrade path option. I may have missed something, but will there be a path to the 68.x version(s)?
Thx
Strange behaviour when copying profile

I just upgraded to MacOS "Catalina" and wanted to make a backup of my default "user Profile" for Thunderbird 60.9.0.
As I have always done in the past, I went into Profile Manager, created a new profile, and then went into the Library, copied all the files from the old profile folder into the new one.
But now, when I launch Thunderbird under the new profile, I find it has created a bunch of new folders such as "inbox-1", "sent-1", etc. instead of just "inbox", "sent"... And some of my files are in "inbox-1", "sent-1" while others stayed in "inbox", etc. After opening and closing Thunderbird a few times, resetting and restarting, and trying it twice with different methods of "copying all the files" to the new profile folder (to make sure I wasn't just accidentally skipping a file during the transfer, or something), I just opened Thunderbird again under the new profile, and all these folders have disappeared completely... (even my "archive" folders, and my inbox's folder structure...) it's weird...
Launching into the 'old' profile somehow still gives me the correct set of folders that I always had (thank God!)... but this new profile behaves strangely.
I think this is a bug, and I think it might have something to do with my having 'upgraded' to Catalina.
Thanks for your ideas...

I am trying to reinstall Thunderbird on a new PC with Windows 10 64-bit. The previous installation was 32-bit. When I encountered the problem I've described below, I noted that TB was installed in "Program Files (x86)." When I reinstalled TB, I did not have the option to select "Program Files." I don't know if this makes a difference. Now for my problem.
I have restored my backup files to ...Appdata\Roaming\. I have one profile named 4m75enq9.default. I reset the profile using profilemanager. When I launch Thunderbird, it does not recover my emails or my contacts. In Thunderbird Troubleshooting Information, when I look at "Profile Folder" and click on "Open folder," the folder it gives is 4m75enq9.default. My question: how do I get back my emails and contacts.
Thanks,
