Importing logins on Firefox
I have 2 Firefox installs on my Mac. I am trying to import my logins to the newer version but it will not allow me to do it. I have set the signon Mgt, to "True". I have an older version on the Mac 91.13 and the new version 104.0.2. When I click on the file to import the logins nothing happens. This is on a new M1 Mac Mini. Any info would be appreciated.

Firefox 104 has a bug in the importer -- it does not work at all.
Can you use Sync to share the logins over between your two installations? See: How do I choose what information to sync on Firefox?
If not, it might work to copy/paste two files between your Firefox 91 profile folder and your Firefox 104 profile folder: logins.json and key4.db (need to be kept together). More info: Recovering important data from an old profile.
Note that Firefox 105.0 is scheduled for release next Tuesday, so you can possibly wait a few days.
