Pref names are case-sensitive. The correct name is "signon.SignonFileName".


opened SM and changed about:config from signons.txt to the .s file


You can make any changes solely in about:config, including additions. 
There's no need to change prefs.js directly, ever (provided it's not 
broken). In fact pref.js is written according to the data in 
about:config every time you shut down SeaMonkey.



When I went to open prefs.js again to copy the line to paste for you
here, it appeared twice. Deleted one instance and still no joy.


Would be interesting to know which one you deleted, the one with the 
correct capitalization or the other?



Saved Passwords in SM is blank.

thoughts?


In addition to the above, try to rename/delete signons.sqlite.


would it matter that this is a 64bit Win7?


No.

I am using nightlies of SM since many years and don't remember, when
this pref appeared. At some time even signons2.txt and signons3.txt were
used, as you can see in the screenshot.


Should I add the line to prefs.js or change it in about:config?


about:config

Hartmut

No joy.


I went into Docs &
Setting//AppData/Roaming/Mozilla/Seamonkey/Profiles/
copied my old .s file into the folder

opened prefs.js
added the line:
user_pref("signon.signonfilename", ".s");

copied the old key3.db file into my profile

opened SM and changed about:config from signons.txt to the .s file

When I went to open prefs.js again to copy the line to paste for you
here, it appeared twice. Deleted one instance and still no joy.
Saved Passwords in SM is blank.

AHA!
I skipped over the step "delete all files from profile beginning with 
'signons'"


Joy!
passwords are in password manager!!

Yippee!!!

thanks!

Addendum in case you wonder why numbers is different in SM1 and SM2.
Easy, that's not my old SM1 but instead another one. :)

If prefs, can you provide the syntax?

hi Lee, and thanks.

I should have been more specific.

I'm doing this transfer from Seamonkey 1.x.
I've been doing this for years - back to NS. You probably no longer 
recognize my name, but I was once a frequent poster here.


Anyhow, I successfully transferred bookmarks and mail and address books, 
but I can't see how to get text from the .s file into an sqlite document 
[and a .db file?]

What am I missing?  I don't speak sql.

As I said, my old comp is still running.

I've thought of the option of installing SM 2.0.4 on it and importing 
and converting that way to sql automatically with the update.

Would that work?

How do I import a second time for my husband's profile after it does the 
initial import on install for my profile?

Anyone know where there is an explanation in English?  I used to do this 
just by copying and pasting the contents of the dot-s file from the old 
install using Notepad.  Now . . .


The old computer is still running, but I really don't want to keep it 
here and open Seamonkey to look in Tools every time I need a password.
