"Backup" does not save a Json file nor does one automatically create when I start up firefox (bookmarkbackups)

Hello,
I've successfully saved my bookmarks and browsing history in the past.
Transfering them from an old hard drive to a new hard drive.
I was trying "Backup" my bookmarks, but after choosing a location to "backup," firefox freezes for a few seconds but no json file is created.
Also, when I look up the "boomarkbackups" folder, the last saved file was sometime in June.
Can someone help me?
Thanks so much for your time and help.
Cheers,
KevinH

FredMcD,
Thanks so much for your help thus far!
Thanks for the addon I backed up using FEBE, But I don't see JSON files
Session store, places.sqlite,
Bookmars-2014-04-15_76972.json (for example)
Are they all actually backed up? I Performed a back up and all I got was the following:
(See image - and is this all normal, is it missing anything? Can this negate fixing places.sqlite?)
Cor-el,
Also, thank you for helping!
I turned off firefox and rebooted computer as instructed if the link you sent. Couldn't not back up and no auto backup.
Is there a danger of loosing my bookmarks using this (as described in the link you sent):
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/places-maintenance/
The rebuild section in the post (Rebuild Places database)
warns of loosing your bookmarks. So should I try the following first? :

Thanks both of you for your help and time. My bookmarks are like my library. They are very special to me.
Cheers,
Kevin H.

  • How to Uninstall Yosemite?  System does not allow Erase the HD, nor does it allow re-install of original O/S Disc (10.6.7).  I want Mavericks or even Lion Back.   Thanks.

    How to Uninstall Yosemite?  System does not allow Erase the HD, nor does it allow re-install of original O/S Disc (10.6.7).  I want Mavericks or even Lion Back.   Thanks.

    Start with reinstalling Snow Leopard:
    Clean Install of Snow Leopard
    Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
    the drive and everything on it.
         1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
             with your computer.  Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
             After the chime press and hold down the  "C" key.  Release the key when you see
             a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
         2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
             button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
             After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
             size.)  Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.  Set the number of
             partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
             and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
             (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
         3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed
             with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
         4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
             Assistant. After you finish Setup Assistant will complete the installation after which
             you will be running a fresh install of OS X.  You can now begin the update process
             by opening Software Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your
             installation current.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 Access the App Store to download Mountain Lion or Yosemite. Mavericks is no longer available since the release of Yosemite. If you purchased Mountain Lion from the App Store, then you can redownload it via your Purchases page in App Store. If not, then you will need to purchase it from Apple;
    Purchase a redemption code at the Online Apple Store: OS X Mountain Lion. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. Use the code to redeem a download of Mountain Lion from the App Store. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.

  • I just updated my iTunes and I do not like the newer version.....can I go back to the earlier version??  This new version does not have the iTunes DJ nor does is show at the bottom as in the earlier version how many songs and the size of my library.

    To do this in iMovie 11. use the SHARE menu. Share your project using the Share menu and choose Export Using QuickTime.
    In the Dialog box that comes up, choose Sound to AIFF, or one of the other sound options. This will create a file that you can drag into iTubes.

    Hello!
        We experience some issues running BRBACKUP utility to save SAP's data objects.
    When we run the BRBACKUP cmd, we see that all tablespaces and configurations files
    are save, but BRBACKUP cmd does not save control files. Why, we don't know?
    BRBACKUP run throught AIX crontab and it looks like this ...

    the init<SID>.ora file looks good, we can see that the *.control_files entry is OK.

    brbackup copies one controlfile to /oracle/PRD/sapbackup and then backs up this copy.

  • Image Capture does not save a scanned file

    Image Capture using an HP Photosmart C3180 to scan a document does so but does not save the file to the Desktop.
    A pop-up windows displays Scan Results but still not file
    O/S Lion, Image Capture Version 6.1 (440).
    Used to work, what is the deal?

    As for the scanner - so is this new one wireless? When I hooked up my Epson All-in-One, I had to install it via USB first before I could install the wireless (per their instructions).  With Snow Leopard, I simply installed the driver and it covered and recognized both the print and scan function - not so in Lion; I had to go through hoops with the scanner part and it finally showed up as a separate unit. I thought that is silly, but - as long as it works.....  I'm trying to think of possibilities since I'm about out of ideas, so you might want to consider that (if it applies). The other troubleshooting suggestions usually include redoing the "add" function after a reboot.
    As for Image Capture, I am out of ideas. FWIW, I never use it - in my workflow, there is no need for it. Not sure if this would have an impact, but make sure that you choose Image Capture in the CDs&DVDs Preference Pane (mine is set to ignore or ask purposely):
    If that does not work, I'd suggest reinstalling the OS over the top of what you have.

  • InDesign does not save - generates new file

    While working with a 6 person workgroup, using InDesign and InCopy across a network.
    I am in InDesign CS 6 on a Mac, the rest of the team in InCopy CS 6 on PC's.
    The problem I am encountering is intermittent and happens when the group is very active, crunching on a tight pub deadline.
    Some times I am able to save the InDesign file properly, it saves over the latest version in the proper place without prompting.
    At other times it does not allow me to save properly and forces a "Save As" scenario, which of course wreaks havoc with the links.
    We are working over a network that also creates scenarios where a file in PowerPoint sometimes pops up inadvertently and intermittently as "read only"
    I can only describe this as a kind of intermittent "lag" in the network.
    Any thoughts?

    A save as, over the current file should not cause any problems at all
    and in fact is pretty good practice.
    If you can't save over it, are you getting an error message?

  • Recording does not save the file

    We are facing a serious problem with Captivate 2. After
    recording about 40 -50 slides it does not save the file.
    The system hangs for several minutes and there’s no
    response.To analyze this problem we have tried out User Forums and
    FAQs.In the User Forum too similar problems are reported. For
    example, visit:
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?forumid=67&catid=464&threadid =1261116&enterthread=y
    In fact, in our team Captivate is loaded on a standalone
    hi-end system with ample space and memory.
    We have also tried workarounds to address this issue. For
    example, we deleted all temp files from library and we also saved
    it on a short path like c:/project.
    Nothing works!!!

    Hi Madduser and welcome to our community
    When you say
    To analyze this problem we have tried out User Forums and
    FAQs are we to assume you simply searched them and read the
    threads? I'm assuming this because this is your first post here.
    You will note that the thread you linked to mentioned the
    person was attempting to save on a network. I do see you have tried
    using the shortened local path to no avail, so I'm guessing the
    network is ruled out here.
    As usual, I've got more questions than answers, but hopefully
    as we work through them something will come to light.
    * Have you EVER been able to create and save things using
    Captivate? Or did you just install it and it's never worked for
    you?
    * Have you tried what is outlined in the following Technical
    Note?

  • I am trying to save a large file on Illustrator CS6 and it does not save and instead says "Unknown Error Occurred." What do I do?

    I am trying to save a large file on Illustrator CS6 and it does not save and instead says "Unknown Error Occurred." What do I do?
    The file has 4 artboards with webpage designs. I tried to take two of the artboards, create a separate doc with those two, and save, but the result was the same.
    However, I am able to save simpler, smaller files.
    I need to not lose these files and I am afraid to quit and restart and lose my unfinished work.
    Any advice?

    What happens if you choose this option?

  • Compression does not save space

    Hello All,
    OS: AIX 5.2.
    We are creating seven backup files every day.
    We transfer files to our backup server via ftp.
    No we have request to compress files.
    So I create a backup folder and put all seven files into one pax folder as below:
    pax -wvf backup.pax file1 file2 file3 file4 file5 file6 file7
    ls
    backup.pax Now I am trying to compress file as below but getting error:
    oracle:>compress backup.pax
    This file is not changed; compression does not save space.
    DN

    it's pretty universally accepted.The keyword is "universally". Bzip2 has better compression but it's very slow. This is the reason why bzip2 can't be universally accepted (I mean online content compression via HTTP etc. etc.).
    But it's accepted by most of *nix clones. And if I need really save ma space then I use bzip2 rather than gzip.
    Just little proof:
    standard_bz2.log and standard_gz.log files are the same.
    du -sh *
    1.1G    standard_bz2.log
    1.1G    standard_gz.lognow I'll execute following commands:
    echo "GZIP"; date; gzip standard_gz.log; date
    echo "BZIP2"; date; bzip2 standard_bz2.log dateand here is output:
    GZIP
    Mon Jun 12 12:26:38 CEST 2006
    Mon Jun 12 12:27:38 CEST 2006
    BZIP2
    Mon Jun 12 12:27:45 CEST 2006
    Mon Jun 12 13:12:29 CEST 2006
    du -sh *
    54M     standard_bz2.log.bz2
    108M    standard_gz.log.gzGzip's compresion was fast (took just 60 seconds) and produced archive has 108M Size.
    Bzip2's compression was much better and produced size of archive was just 54M but it took much time for compression.
    So if you need quick compression and less of saved capacity then gzip is the right option.
    If you need save space or you need better compression then bzip2 is the right option.
