Thanks Daniel, I'll try doing that. Meantime, this morning I clicked the SM icon and my old profile opened, complete with bookmarks and mail, but missing several menus: http://bayimg.com/jACicaaco I was particuarly wanting to do screenshots of my passwords but can't access them. Is there a way to transfer passwords to a new profile also?
