Hey, I would like to move my thunderbird profile (including all the old emails) from my old PC to a new MacBook. Before I buy the MacBook, I would like to verify that this is indeed feasible. I have migrated my Thunderbird profile from PC to PC and found it very intuitive. Is it essentially the same process for migrating the profile from PC to the MacBook? I assume the folder would be slight different but there will no not be a conflict due to the data format, right? I would be grateful for a brief confirmation / some advise. Thank you! Simon

I just helped a person move from mac to PC with no problems, so the same should be true in reverse. My personal preference is to first install thunderbird, exit, and then use the OS's file management tool to copy the profile to overlay the default profile. That guarantees it is identical to what was on PC. Or, you could use tools>import>import from another thunderbird installation. IMPORTANT: be sure the profile on PC was created when Thunderbird was NOT running. Another option would be to copy profile to somewhere on hard drive, click help>troubleshootinginformation, scroll down to 'profiles' and click 'about:profiles, click the 'create profile' button and follow the prompts to name it and click the browse button to locate and select the profile you copied.
