Any
idea why?

Still working for me in SeaMonkey and Firefox.  Just did it this
afternoon.  SM latest version, FF latest Beta.

I'm doing it from Seamonkey on Windows to Seamonkey on Linux, and it
isn't working.  Same version of Seamonkey on both platforms.



I've done it several times with both Firefox and SeaMonkey. Just
recently converted a friend's crashed Win7 to Ubuntu, but I don't just
copy the places.sqlite but the whole profile which preserves passwords
and mail and all.

Copy %APPDATA%\Mozilla\SeaMonkey\Profiles\[WIN-SALT].default DIR from
Windows and paste to Linux ~/.mozilla/seamonkey/

Then edit ~/.mozilla/seamonkey/profiles.ini

[General]
StartWithLastProfile=1

[Profile0]
Name=default
IsRelative=1
# comment out the original Linux install profile
#Path=[LINUX-SALT].default
# and add name of Windows profile
Path=[WIN-SALT].default

Start SeaMonkey and enjoy. You can then delete the original Linux
installed profile [LINUX-SALT].default


I've done that a half dozen times so I know it works. I'm just interested in copying over my bookmarks, and as I reported in another post, I figured it out.
