OK but that still does not explain why one cannot copy the
relevant files between Icecat and Firefox for passwords. When there
is a perfectly good way to store passwords in FF and Icecat is
supposed to be a clone of FF why cannot passwords be simply copied
across? I dont want to have to use extra software to copy
passwords. It makes NO sense to me.
I don't understand either, but you did say that it was exporting the
keys from Firefox that you were having trouble doing, correct?
I tried the password exporter add-on but that gives errors.
If that's the case, the primary source of your problem would seem to
be Firefox.
As for the trouble you had copying your profile:
I tried copying the FF profile but that does not do it
Based on this, I can't even tell if you "copied" the profile
correctly. For all I know, you might have just merged the contents of
.mozilla/firefox into .mozilla/icecat, which would of course have no
effect, because you would still have to choose the Firefox profile
rather than the already existing IceCat profile.
I'm not terribly knowledgeable about Firefox and IceCat; I'm just a
user. I have no idea whether or not I would be any help if I had more
information. But the point is, you can't just hurl all of the blame on
IceCat.
