Want to keep Firefox Profile on earlier iMac and also transfer Profile to newer iMac.
Hi, I'm new to asking the Firefox community a question, but I hope you can give me directions to solve my problem:
I currently have Firefox v. 78.15.0esr on an iMac (early 2008) running OS 10.9.5.
I know that version has been unsupported by Mozilla for a few years, but I still want to keep this computer alive after I install the latest Firefox version to the newer (refurbished) iMac M3 2023 which should come with OS 14 or OS 15.
I hope that downloading the latest Firefox for Mac version off your website should be pretty straightforward, but what I really need help on is how to bring my Profile residing in the Library/Caches/Firefox folder on my older iMac to become my Profile on the latest Firefox version on the newer iMac (while still keeping my older iMac).
Appreciate the help.
