My bank was built on Firebird 3.0. How do I convert the entire database from Firebird 3.0 to Firebird 4.0?

What exactly you tried and what "not worked"? What the error message was?

In some cases the simplest way is to create a new database from scratch and
copy data from the old one.

Please be more specific in how it not worked.

Explanations of backup and restore can be found in
