I have migrated all of my profile files from another 2.53.2 SM installation, on another machine, onto 2.53.2 on this computer in order to retain my bookmarks, saved passwords etc. That profile on that other machine originated from an older 2.49 installation and has been migrated forward from there.

The older 2.49 installation and its profile had a working Lightning configuration.

I tried copying individual files of Bookmarks etc from a backup of the 2.49 profile but SMonkey ignored the copies. I'm aware that the schema of the profile has been revised in 2.53.2.

I notice that on a new empty profile in 2.53.2 the Events and Tasks menu is available in Mail and the Lightning extension shows as installed. On the migrated profile Events and Tasks is missing and the Lightning extension is missing. I've tried installing Lightning but get an error report when I start it. Is there a fix I can apply to enable Lightning in my migrated profile?

I notice in the about:config on this computer I can see the calendar settings, such as the URL of my CalDAV server. Those settings will have originated in the 2.49 profile that this profile is derived from. Is there a setting I can change to re-enable the calendar function?

Failing if someone could point me to an up to date list of the various files in a 2.53.2 profile so that I'll know exactly which files to copy in order to migrate my Bookmarks etc onto an otherwise clean profile that has Lightning working.

Is there a way to trigger the conversion of a 2.49 profile to the 2.53.2 profile?

Many thanks

ken, I had problems with a simple upgrade in the last 6 months where my existing Lightning info appeared to disappear, even tho the extension was reporting as installed. The fix I got, suggested by another member here, was to open 'about:config' and search for this entry (without the quotes):
"extensions.installedDistroAddon.{e2fda1a4-762b-4020-b5ad-a41df1933103}"
Right-click on the entry in the 'Value' column, select the 'Reset' option, restart your SM session. Mine worked right away after that. Other profiles created don't have the 'evil bit' set that's masking the Lightning function, only your main profile.

Hope this works for you.
Rick
