Is SeaMonkey useful in windows 8?  For instance, I can't find
application data anywhere in my computer.  What I want to do is use my

windows 8 machine load up with the same bookmarks.  That's one place to
start, anyway.  Any idea how to do this?

How about this?

Copy your bookmarks.html file from the Win7 computer to your Win8
desktop or someplace obvious where you can find it. Then have SM on your
Win8 machine import it. (If you like, wipe out all its existing
bookmarks first.)

CTRL-5 to open the address book, then Tools | Import...

The program naturally knows where it saves its data, so it'll put the
imported bookmarks in the right place. But if you're curious, do Edit |
Mail & Newsgroup Account Settings... | Server Settings (for one of your
accounts), and at the bottom of the dialog you'll see something like
this (with your name in it, of course!):
Local directory: C:\Users\Paul B.
Gallagher\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\SeaMonkey\Profiles\...

This path should give you enough information to locate your profile.

Oh, I have no problem finding my profile. But there is no bookmark.html file at all (and adding it does nothing). There's a bookmark backup directory which has some sort of *.json file. But nothing like bookmark.html. Even when I add bookmarks, no bookmark file shows up in the SM AddData folder. This isn't the only problem I'm having with Win-8. I'm unable to establish contact with my e-mail server also. Oh, well. Is it possible that SeaMonkey isn't ready for Win-8?
