I tried to log on to my thunderbird account and it is not there. A window pops up asking me if I want to open a new account, which I did, but all of my saved information is gone. How can I restore the account with all of my saved files? Thanks for your help.

Follow the instructions on how to move a profile. This will tell Thunderbird again where your profile is stored.
