I started my computer this morning to find I had unwittingly upgraded
from 2.0.14 to 2.4.1. Having experienced a recent trainwreck with the
most recent version of S-M, I went back to one I knew worked, and was
content to leave it there. It was a complete surprise to have
Seamonkey open today in a version I never asked for, and never
knowingly installed, but there it was. All bookmarks were gone, the
password manager was empty, and I was stuck. So I closed the app down,
reinstalled 2.0.14, and things worked again.
Eventually I'll have to upgrade, but before I do, I really need to
know how to retrieve and reactivate bookmarks and the password manager
and so on.
Before you answer, know that I'm running Mac OSX 10.6.8. All the
advice on this topic I've found assumes you're running a Windows
machine. I'm not, and that advice does not apply to my situation.
Using OSX 10.6.8 when I updated from 2.0.14 I had the same problem. I made
a copy of the html file from the 2.0.14 profile put it on my desktop then
imported it into 2.4.0 password manager. May be other ways to successfully
import but this worked for me.
To prevent unwanted upgrade go to Preferences/Advanced/Software
Installation and Uncheck 'Allow websites to install updates' and
'Automatically check for updates'
