Can i import old bookmarks in josn format

my computer crashed and i lost all of my bookmarks. All i can find is an old backup from over a year ago. it is saved in the josn file format. I have firefox 13 running on my computer. it doesn't give the option anymore to import bookmarks. How can i get my bookmarks back into firefox?

No problem that is the standard Firefox bookmarks format. BUT TAKE CARE, always make separate backups before trying importing such bookmarks as they overwrite any existing bookmarks.
* see Back up your bookmarks or move them to another computer
** ''edit ''link is [[Back up your bookmarks or move them to another computer]]
Also before attempting your year old restore
*that note you could have other backups generated automatically, so read the above linked article
*consider trying to find and backup your profile that normally contains useful bookmark files (including ''places.sqlite'' which if not corrupt is a complete history and bookmarks database)
**see [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
Post back with how you get on, or if you need more assistance after looking at the linked articles.

How can I import Firefox bookmarks, now stored in User folder on same (new) PC, into Firefox?

How can I import Firefox bookmarks, now stored in User folder on same (new) PC, into Firefox? I have exported the Firefox bookmarks from my old PC into a [Windows 8] folder on my new PC.
When I use the Firefox import facility, it will only import one bookmark at a time - and then it bookmarks all the main pages on the bookmarked website, not just the one which I originally bookmarked. It also does not import the information stored in the bookmark tag.

Sure thing.
# Open the run dialog by holding the Windows key and pressing R
# Type <code>%appdata%</code> into the run window and press ok
# Open the ''Mozilla'' folder
# Open the ''Firefox'' folder
# Open the ''Profiles'' folder
# Copy the folder that is located in this folder to a USB drive
# Install and run Firefox on the new computer
# Close Firefox
# Repeat steps 1 to 5 on the new computer
# Open the folder that you copied from the old computer
# Copy the contents of that folder into the folder located inside of the new computer's profile folder
# Allow Windows to replace any duplicate folders with the ones that you are copying onto the computer is prompted

Can't import old CD's, Help!!!!!!

I can't import old CD's. I've upgraded my dvd drive, I've reinstalled itunes, I've upgraded to the latest version of itunes and I still can't get all my CD's in my library. Whenever I try to import songs from CD's from 2000 and older itunes freezes and I have to unplug my computer. For the amount of money you spend on this thing and all the hype about it it surely isn't worth the money. No one at apple seems to know what the problem is, they claim they never heard this problem, but this message board is full of people with the same problem. Do anyone have any answer to this nagging problem?

Thanks for the suggestion. CD's are clean; no finger prints or dust. Still can't import into iTunes. A little background-- I had iTunes on a PC previously. When I transferred the library to my MacBook, I noticed some CD's were not transferred. This is one of the CD's I had in iTunes on my PC, but is now not in iTunes on my MacBook. Why can I not add this and some other CD's to iTunes on my MacBook?

Why i can't import a clip of AVCHD format from iPhoto originaly from my Sony NEX-5N

why i can't import a clip of AVCHD format from iPhoto originaly from my Sony NEX-5N?

Hi there. For anyone searching, here are the results of my research and corresponding advice back to Sony...
Thanks, your comments looked correct but did not solve my problem. You may be interested to know after much testing and research, I was able to ascertain that some of the camera's AVCHD settings iMovie cannot see at all (only some, which made it even harder to figure out!). Plus, if you have recorded movie clips in more than one format to the memory card (MP4 or any one of the AVCHD's), iMovie cannot see any of the AVCHD's.
Bottom line - forgo the benefits of AVCHD on the Sony NEX-5N and just use MP4 until Apple makes it easier.

I can't import my bookmarks on Chrome to Firefox even after I followed the Firefox guide on how to do this.

I can't import my bookmarks from Google Chrome to Firefox (version 3.6.13) even though I followed the guide on how to do this.

Just figured out by accident how to change the .html file back to a .json file. Wherever the file is on your computer, open a CMD or DOS window up. If the file name is something like "bookmarks-2011-07-15.json.html" you can rename it using CMD, but it wont work in windows. Use these commands without the quotation marks.
"rename *.json.html *.json"
Their is one space between the l and *, "rename *.json.html(space)*.json"
That should effectively get rid of the .html at the end of the file. You should also see the file has the same icon it once had before having .html put on the end of it and it taking the icon of whatever web browser you are using. In Windows, not CMD, you might have to right click on the file and rename it again to get rid of the .json if it is showing, doing so wont affect the file anyway negatively. After it's renamed you can close the CMD window.
Now you should be able to import your bookmarks using the Firefox's "Imports and Backup > Restore > Choose File" menu and would you look at that, theirs your bookmarks.
Hope this helps even though it's now two plus months since first post.

How can I import old Safari bookmarks from a cache

I had a bit of data disaster when upgrading to Snow Leopard from Tiger. Lost my home directory, and now lost the backup too aaaaahhh.
An older backup has what looks like Safari bookmarks in /library/caches/metadata/safari/bookmarks
The files all end with a ".webbookmark" suffix
when opened in TextWrangler they appear as below:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>Name</key>
<string>Spanish Tortilla Recipe</string>
<key>URL</key>
<string>http://www.spanish-fiestas.com/recipes/tortilla.htm</string>
</dict>
</plist>
Can I import these into Safari somehow?

You could try pasting them into the current Bookmarks.plist and save with Textwrangler. Not sure if it will work but that may be all you can do. Run plutil after to check for errors via terminal. Relaunch Safari.
Current bookmarks:
User/Library/Safari/Bookmarks.plist

(How can we) Import Flash Professional .FLA file format?

How can we import a Flash Professional .fla file format into Flash Catalyst? It would appear that we can't...at least not yet! I have added this as a feature request within the adobe labs site for Catalyst. Someone at Adobe suggested that I also explore the forums, so here we are. If you would also like to have this feature added, please let Adobe know by promoting the
idea.
Our use case is this: we have a large Flash file with a library of over one thousand skins and assets that were built in Flash with Adobe's Flex Skins Templates. These stateful, graphical skins were used within a custom theme by several Flex 3 projects.
Now that we are looking to migrate to FlashBuilder 4, and start to use Spark components, we are trying to find a workflow that allows us to use Adobe tools and to reuse our existing vector artwork. Since we have such a large number of assets, we are exploring various approaches, including the use of JSFL. So far we haven't found a good way to migrate from Flash-built skins for Flex 3 to Catalyst-built skins for FlashBuilder 4.

Hi Ajay,
See attached V 7.0 example...
Hope it helps,
Nick

I can't import my bookmarks from Safari to Firefox

Hi, I'm using MacBook Pro for a month. I have hundreds of bookmarks on Safari. I want to import that bookmarks to Firefox 4.
Sorry for my bad english

Press either Alt or F10, that will temporarily display the traditional menus, you can then use "File > Import" to import from the HTML file.

Can't import large bookmark file

I recently purchased another Windows computer. I installed Firefox and attempted to import my bookmarks file (html). I was only able to import folders in my bookmarks and nothing else. I then open my bookmark file in Firefox and the bookmarks I want are still there. The bookmark file is 15.8 mb in size. Do I need to split up this file and, if so, how would I do that?
Thanks!

If you still have the old computer, you could try backing up to .json (by using Backup instead of Export). With the new system, restore the .json file.
