I've moved the following files, from the old profile to the new one,

that they store this kind of data:

- key3.db

and also a

I saw at the original (damaged) profile

Should I also move logins.json ? (I can't find it that Profile 
reference page) Or what else am I missing?


Yes, you should move logins.json and key3.db.
That mozillazine page is out of date, and no longer maintained. Use the 
instructions in the following page: 




Thanks so much, Chris! Just adding the old logins.json did the trick!

And thanks too for the reference to ilias.ca. Sadly this site is not so 
well positioned in search engines as Mozillazine, so most users 
searching for this kind of info won't find the most updated one. 
Something should be done about it...

No es que seamos 'anticapitalistas': somos 'náufragos del Capitalismo',
que está ya técnicamente hundido, como el Titánic cuando la tripulación
por fin vio el iceberg ante ellos. Ahora sólo queda organizar el
abandono del barco de la manera más justa y ordenada posible y navegar
en botes salvavidas hacia territorios poscapitalistas donde poder
sobrevivir con dignidad.

How to move logins data to a new profile?

[Manuel Casal Lodeiro]

My moving to a new profile as a solution to the multi-failure that we 
referring with subject "Multiple failures after disk became full 
(Linux)" is progressing quite well.


Finally I decided to put all acounts again in a single profile, and it's 
going ok, but I cannot get the saved logins (website signing data) to 
work in the new profile.

and also a
- signons3.txt
I saw at the original (damaged) profile

Should I also move logins.json ? (I can't find it that Profile reference 
page) Or what else am I missing?


When I visit the pages (Wordpress logins for example) where the 
usernames and passwords were automatically (or semi-automatically) 
filled, the usernames nor the passwords show up.


Thanks in advance.
