After moving profile, not all addons work -- can't reinstall

I moved my FF profile from old computer running ubuntu to new one with opensuse. I used directions at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/back-and-restore-information-firefox-profiles
Seems that most eveything transferred correctly except two addons: Session Manager & Pocket. Removed them both with intention to reinstall. I am unable to do so and am presented with the same error for both:
... could not be installed becaue Firefox cannot modify the needed file
There is more detail in the Error console (also same for both):
Warning: WARN addons.xpi: Failed to install: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80520005 (NS_ERROR_FILE_DESTINATION_NOT_DIR) [nsIFile.create]" nsresult: "0x80520005 (NS_ERROR_FILE_DESTINATION_NOT_DIR)" location: "JS frame :: resource://gre/modules/XPIProvider.jsm :: AI_startInstall :: line 5046" data: no]
Source File: resource://gre/modules/XPIProvider.jsm
Line: 5046

When attempting to install the normal way is exactly when I was getting the error messages I mentioned in the first post.
Anyway, I left out what I believe now is the critical detail: that the profile was moved from a partition that had to be rescued. It initially looked like all the data was saved but I've since discovered that a small percentage of the files on the disk were corrupted.
The corrupted files must have included those for Session Manager and Pocket as I've been able to reinstall them by manually "save link as" downloading the xpis and then renaming or unpacking the files. It still remains to be seen whether or not I can do a normal install with an addon I didn't already have.

  • After current updates, not all peripherals work.

    I currently have a 320 GB external hard drive connected via USB, a Mackie Onyx Sattelite Firewire recording interface, and a wireless printer running off of it. After the recent updates, the hard-drive works fine, but the recording interface no longer shows up as an audio input, and the printer no longer prints. Both are visible as connected peripherals in system profiler, but neither are working.
    I originally scrapped my hard drive and reinstalled Mac OSX, and the recording interface worked again. However, after updatring the software yet again, both the printer and interface stopped working. Any thoughts?

  • HT4191 I deleted notes on my mac but did not want them deleted from iPhone but after synching they are all done. Can I get them back?

    I deleted notes on my mac but did not want them deleted from iPhone but after synching they are all done. Can I get them back?

    Deleting on one device does not affect another device.
    You can delete the App's on the iPhone and nothing will happen to the ones on the iPad.
    1.  You don't need to.
    2.  Settings->Cellular->"Use Cellular Data For" will show the data usage for each App since the last statistics reset
    3.  Settings->General->Background App Refresh Will show which Apps are allowed to get data in the background
    4.  It restricts it to Wifi.  If the App requires internet access and Data is turned off, it will have to wait until the device is connected to a wifi network.
    5.  Nope, You just use up battery since the BT radio will continuously look for nearby BT devices.
    6.  The Personal Hotspot uses your cellular internet connection from your phone or other cellular device; whether you consider that secure or not I cannot say.  It also depends on what you are doing while connected to the Hotel's wifi. I would not do online banking while on vacation though.

  • Iphoto 09 - after install, not all photo's can be printed - help

    After installing iphoto, not all of my photo's were displaying. and when I had tried to print, only original photo's would print. if a duplicated or edited photo was selected, it would just look like a screen dump. I have uninstalled the software and re-installed it. the same problem occured. When I reinstalled it, the faces did not run. help please!

    i think i found a solution. rebuilding the photo database and fixing permissions did not correct a problem with 1 of the 4 photos I was attempting to print. Editing the photo in iPhoto may have resulting in the photo becoming corrupted. To make a long story short ... I used Time Machine to retrieve an earlier version of the corrupted photo, and all seems to be well.

  • Printer just started feeding a blank page after some, but not all printed documents

    Printer just started feeding a blank page after some, but not all printed documents

    Hi @cam21 ,
    I understand that you are having issues printing, after some documents you are getting blank pages. I would be happy to help you.
    I would do a hard reset to see if that will resolve the issue.
    Leave the printer on and unplug the power cable from the printer and wall outlet for 60 seconds.
    Then reconnect the power cable to the printer and wall outlet rather than a surge protector.
    This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help this situation.
    What application are you printing from?
    It may be a setting in the application.
    Does this happen from all applications?
    Download and run the Print and Scan Doctor. It will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it. http://www.hp.com/go/tools>Using HP Diagnostic Tools for HP Printers in Windows.
    How is the printer connected? (USB/Ethernet/Wireless)
    What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (did it print or scan, any error messages)
    If there is anything else I can help you with, just let me know.
    Have a nice day!
    Thank You.

    You haven't given us much to go on here.  What exactly are you doing and what exactly happens when you try?  Which specific version of each program are you using?  (Go to Help>About...)
    On a side note, a simple, brief thread title is all that's needed.  Something like "After Effects Issue" would be fine.  You don't need the full question there.

    The "restore disk" is built into the Mac. See About Recovery.
    Need more specifics about what error messages you got while installing Adobe Flash.
    However, you can almost avoid Flash altogether by setting YouTube to play the HTML5 version instead.
    Click the Try something new! link at the bottom of the YouTube page.
    I don't know about the sound issue. Might be hardware as you think. Try other headphones to check.

  • I have photos on my iphone 4 that i'm trying to transfer to iphoto.  The problem is when I plug the phone in, it only wants to transfer the new photos, not all.  How can I take all the photos off my phone and put them into iphoto?

    I have photos on my iphone 4 that i'm trying to transfer to iphoto.  The problem is when I plug the phone in, it only wants to transfer the new photos, not all.  How can I take all the photos off my phone and put them into iphoto? Even if there are duplicates, I'd like to make sure I get all the photos from my phone into iphoto.  Thanks

    To see all the photos on the phone, including photos that have already been imported into iPhoto, deselect the "Hide Photos Already Imported" checkbox. If the camera contains photos that have already been imported into iPhoto, those photos are hidden by default.

    The number of tabs that you can show at once is limited by the size of the canvas. If you have too many tabs, then you can set up one tab to be a 'MORE'. When the user clicks on it, it hides the current set of tabs and displays the set of tabs that were not shown. By having a MORE for each set of tabs, you can toggle between the sets of tabs. The Help documentation describes how to show and hide tabs, and how to set focus to a particular tab.

  • Is it all gone or is there somewhere all that work can be recovered?

    my wife spent all day yesterday placing text into a book and formatting, etc. When she finished for the night she clicked on - File - save - instead of the save book button. Is it all gone or is there somewhere all that work can be recovered?

    Open InDesign and then use the recent files list to see if it’s there.

  • After moving to spain from UK I can't get my phone to activate with my Spanish sim card

    I currently live in Spain after moving from UK 3 months ago.  On first arriving in Spain i bought an orange PAYG sim card inserted it into my Blackberry and all worked fine. I Recently changed from Blackberry to iphone5 whilst back in UK, on returning to Spain I went to the orange shop to change my sim to a micro sim.
    The guy in the shop used a press to reduce the size of my sim and told me to insert it as normal. On doing this the phone will not activate, the phone isn't locked to a specific network so I'm now without a phone. Any ideas?

    Dear all,
    I bought my phone from an Apple store in Exeter so it is unlocked.
    When I changed my sim in UK ( full size from Blackberry to micro for IPhone ) I had to register with Orange which involved a phone call then a 2 hour period with the phone off whilst it activated. In the Orange shop in Spain I was told I didn't need to do this.
    I will visit the Apple shop in Alicante next week and see what they say if nobody can give me the answer.
    I dont want to buy another sim if its unnecessary as I will lose my number and the credit on the account.
    Thanks to all so far, keep them coming!

  • Cannot start stopped servers, after restarting the SIA all stopped working

    All was working ok, but suddenly I could not run reports from Infoview nor from the Central Managment Console.  Nontheless, I was able to log in to both (just not run the reports).  From the CMC, I noticed that 5 servers had stopped running, but remained enabled.  I tried starting/restarting each of them from CMC, but had no response.  I then looked at the properties for each of these servers and noticed the same message in red stating "The Server Intelligence Agent for this server is unavailable".  I then went to the Central Configuration Manager at the server where Crystal Reports Server 2008 is installed and launched the Server Manager tool which showed a list of servers.  From here, I looked at the Server Intelligence Agent properties and when I clicked on the configuration tab, it asked for me to select from a list of radio buttons of which connection type (if remember correctly) to use...there was no cancel or close option to back out of this, so I randomly chose the oracle type (which is what or ERP system uses as a backend), then was forced to save the changes.  Nonetheless, this did not seem to have any effect then, I still had the same problem/issue stated above.  I then, following a suggestion, restarted the Server Intelligence Agent.  Unfortunately, right after this restart all the servers disappeared from the list of servers in the CCM.  In addition, now I can't even login to any of the tools (CMC, Infoview,...) the only place I still can launch is the CCM; however, I cannot access the Server Manager tool in CMC.  After entering my credentials, it idles for hours with no response).  I'm stock with no way to do any further work...Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I saw something similiar once when using SAP authentication(you didn't mention which auth model you are using).
    If the license you installed was a named user (vs. concurrent user) and you picked the opposite setting in the CMC Authentication section, then you won't be able to login.

  • Not all files work in log and transfer

    Hoping maybe someone has found a fix to this issue...
    When editing an HDV project not all my .m2t files (all in the same folder) want to transfer using Log and Transfer.  Most of the files will transfer correctly but sometimes it skips a file and puts a red exclamation mark in the status.  Not sure why most files work and a few don't when they are all from the same folder and from the same shoot.  The files will open fine in other 3rd party apps so the files are ok.  
    Thanks in advance for any help!

    FCP may be a bit more discriminating on the file structure or header integrity, dunno, never shot HDV myself but we've seen similar posts for years. Try copying the files to your drive first and then ingesting.
    Side note, ust because other apps can open the files doesn't mean they are intact or useable. You don't mention what these apps are but if you can export form them, do that and then ingest the new file which might have all of its glitches reparied to suit FCP.

  • Not all links work when migrating iweb to ftp

    I migrated my iweb site from mobilem to another host and now some of the movie links that I use are not working.  Everything else is working like text and photos but the movies I get the quicktime icon in the place for them.  What am Idoing

    is that making a difference?
    yes, that is in web server mime type configuration.
    .mov is a well known file extension and is default to video/quicktime mime type.
    mp4 or .m4v extension is rather new, it's mpeg4 layer and not all web hosts config .m4v extension.
    you can config it yourself (adding extension to mime type), but if you don't know how you can ask your host to add mime type video/mp4  for .m4v extension.
    other file extensions can be used with video/mp4 are: mp4 mp4v mpg4 m4v

  • Query execute warning - Not all info-objects can be read

    When I execute query, I get warning "Not all infobjects can be read". This happens only with business user ids and not with developer IDs. Long text is -
    Inconsistent InfoObjects exist in the system. The inconsistency may be caused by a program termination while saving or activating the InfoObject or in its after import treatment.
    We are not able to trace which info-object is having problem. Problem is also while displaying data in LISTCUBE. Is this has to do anything with authorizations? We are not able to catch exact source of problem. Any ideas will be helpful.

    Hi,
    Do you have the problem with LISTCUBE with developer userd ID also ?
    Check the Consistency of the InfoProvider and activate it once more.
