Can I combine bookmarks etc from different computers when syncing Firefox or will the main computer erase the other devices' bookmarks, etc?

I have different bookmarks on the different computers that I want to sync. I want to have all the bookmarks on all the devices. Is this possible when I sync? Thank you.

Hi!
Yes, Firefox Sync merges and adds all the info in all the profiles. It doesn't delete the information on any of them. That way you will have the information from any of your devices in the rest of the devices.

The computer will not erase the information. Each device will show up in iTunes as a separate device and you can control the information for each device through iTunes.

How can I combine two databases, from two computers, to have one combined database of messages?

My old XP computer recently died and I had to build a new Windows 8.1 machine. While I was down I used a laptop as a temporary replacement. Now my new machine is running fine and receiving e-mail, but I now have two databases--one on the new machine and one on the laptop. Both are based on a recent backup, so they are lengthy--except that the new machine's database has a hole in it for the period I was on the laptop and the laptop's database also has gaps. How can I combine two databases into one that includes the messages from both machines?
Thanks in advance,

Thanks for your reply. My profile folder did not contain any MBOX files. I found them in another folder on another drive. The Import-Export tools simply transferred each folder to the current one as a sub-folder. Then I had to use ctrl-a to select everything in the folder and move them manually to the current folder (such as inbox). Then I could use the other utility you mentioned to remove the duplicates. This had to be done, one folder at a time, to combine each folder. It worked, but I had about thirty-five folders to deal with. The whole process took most of two days to complete. I wish there was a simple way to blend everything together in one action, but I could not find an add-on that would do this.

Combining iTunes downloads from different computers?

I have an iTunes account on 3 different laptops. Is there a way to combine all songs on one computer and then merge everything on my iPod?
Thx.csd

Are you wanting to combine all the iTunes purchases you made on all 3 laptops, or does this content include nonpurchased items such as CD's you imported yourself?
Use your iPod to move the music from each laptop onto a single one. See this article for more details on how to make this happen.
How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer
Once you have done that, restore your iPod to factory settings on the laptop containing all your consolidated iTunes content and set it up to sync everything back over to it.

Want to transfer from old computer to new computer and discontinue using old computer. Which computer should be the main computer in the setup? Or should I transfer bookmarks and settings by another method instead of using sync?

Have a computer which I will need to retire (bad hard drive), 32 bit OS. Have new computer 64 bit OS. Both computers have Firefox 5. Old machine on Windows 2000, new one on Windows 7. Old computer has all the bookmarks and settings that I need for the new computer. Also have Zotero on the old computer and would like to transfer it to the new computer. Any advice would be gratefully received.
Much thanks.

Hi,
Regarding bookmarks, settings and history, Firefox Sync can definitively help even if it's not it's primary goal. You would need to transfer your Zotero configuration manually though.
In order to transfer your data using Sync follow this instructions making your new computer the primary device: [[How to sync Firefox settings between computers]].
Once everything is set up make sure that you have all the information in the new computer. After it, you should be able to retire your old computer without any issue. Remember, that if you remove the bookmarks before disconnecting your old computer they would be removed from your Sync account too.

Combining iPhoto libraries from different computers?

Hi all!
I have a question I could use some help on --
I would like to import an iPhoto library from a friend's computer into my iPhoto library. Specifically, I want to add a iPhoto folder of hers containing a bunch of photos that are already labeled. Is that possible to do? I would normally just import the photos directly, except for the fact that she painstakingly already labeled/dated the photos in her iPhoto library and would hate to have to re-label everything.
Thanks for any suggestions.
A.P.

Hi alexandra,
I need to know more info about the folder of images.
Is it just a folder of images she exported from her library? When you double click the folder to open it, what are the names of the images?
Or is it instead a CD that mounts within iPhoto?

Can no longer print anything from a website when using FireFox. Have updated FF but no other programs added or changed. Get a message "save file as *.xps"

When I try to print, I get a message to save file as *.xps file, but Mozilla stops responding when I try that. Can still print from other browsers.

Hello there,
My name is Luke and i would be happy to assist you with this issue. The reason you are getting this is because your computer's default printer is set to Microsoft XPS Document Writer. If you go to your computer's printer settings and set your favourite printer as the default one this problem will be fixed. If there are any more questions please feel free to reply to me.
Thank you!

Gathering documents from different computers?

Im writing a project on about 100 pages, we are seven students writing it, and we are all contributim by writing from different computers using different writing programs. This means that I have to gather documents with different margins, spacings etc. when im finnishing the projekt.
How can I make all margins, spacing etc. the same? And exactly what should I remember to change, in order to get the document to look like it was written from one computer?

Well my first initial thought would be close to what you are describing, to gather all documents in one document, mark it all and start changeing, but what I want to make sure is to what settings I need to be aware of, are there other than margins, font, spacings? There are different spacings from when you hit enter to a new line to when you press the tabulator to indent a new line. Just clicking on the i button and then the T, alot of different settings comes up concerning different spacings, linings etc.

Adobe Presenter: working from different computers transferring files

I am using Adobe presenter. I need to work from home, so have copied my powerpoint and all its associated adobe presenter audio files from one location to another. I used to be able to do this without problems. However, it seems I'm no longer able to do it: I open powerpoint and go to the adobe presenter toolbar and try to record more audio and clearly the system shows no audio is associated with this file. Getting out of adobe presenter makes the system delete the folder with associated audio files (it seems it is not linking them properly, but still recognising them as adobe presenter audio files and deleting them as if to start recording from scratch).
Can anyone help? how can I work on the same files from different computers without losing the data (or the links) in between?
Regards,
Gabriel

Hi folks
One way to achieve this easily is by using DropBox. This will create a folder that you sync to the cloud. Then you create a Dropbox on the second computer and whatever you change and save is automatically updated and transferred to the other computer keeping them in sync. Works really well.

Does anyone have experience with having multiple editors work on the same project from different computers?

As much as I hate to admit it, YOU ARE RIGHT!
I will tread lightly on this project.

Can I download a file in different sessions or should it be in a single session? In other words can I pause the download of a file, shutdown/restart my system and then resume download from where I left off? Or will it start from the very beginning?

If a server supports resuming downloads then the download should continue where it left off.<br />
You can test that by simple starting a large download and wait a minute or so before pausing it.<br />
Then you can close and restart Firefox and see if resuming works.
You can set the pref browser.download.manager.quitBehavior to 2 on the about:config page.<br />
That will make Firefox ask for confirmation if you want to cancel the download if you close Firefox.

How do you transfer music from different computers to your ipod?

I have two computers that are configured to my ipod. Because one is usually in the shop being fixed I have a problem when I purchase music on the secondary computer and want to transfer it to the main computer. It will transfer to my main computer through a cd but it requires that locate on the harddrive. It will play on the computer once I locate it but it won't tranfer to the ipod when syncing. Any suggestions?

If the music you want to move from computer A to computer B is on your iPod the job is easy. There are free and shareware programs that transfer music from the iPod to your computer. Check out your favorite download site.

How do I get the sync of my 3GS on my computer to transfer everything (files, apps, etc.) to my new iphone4? And then how do I move the sync to a newer computer so I can sync the new phone with the new computer?

How do I get the sync of my 3GS on my computer to transfer everything (files, apps, etc.) to my new iphone4? And then how do I move the sync to a newer computer so I can sync the new phone with the new computer?
My 3GS is dying and it's synced to an older computer. I have tons of datafiles as well as apps, music, text messages, etc. that I need to get moved to the new iphone4 I'm getting. Then I need to move the sync to a newer computer so that I can sync the new phone and new computer.
I understand how to get my apps to transfer to a new pc. That's not the issue. It's getting ALL the data from the 3GS to the 4 and then to a new computer.
Thanks.

Thanks much, that's very helpful for step one (getting old phone onto new phone). Very clear.
However, I still have the problem of moving to the new computer. How do I move the sync to the new computer after the new phone is set up?
