Change in name of bookmark backups file - Normal?

There are several different files I back up from my Firefox profile every few weeks (Windows 7). One is the latest file from the bookmarkbackups sub-folder. In the past it has always looked like this:
bookmarks-2014-07-27_801.json
But since upgrading from FF 30 to FF 31 on July 28, I have these:
bookmarks-2014-07-28_801_CKxu2+MdJWqssiH1CHl1xg==.json
bookmarks-2014-07-30_801_owugd2tkymMZxpZ-xAma8Q==.json
(not sure why there is no entry for 7-29)
Is this change, with the addition of all those extra characters, normal as of FF 31, or is there a problem?

Thanks for that detailed explanation cor-el. Very helpful!

Using Aurora - bookmarks backup files (json) include the word 'undefined' ??

At some point the automatic backup files began to include the word 'undefined' in the filename -- anybody know why??
Example:
bookmarks-2013-09-03_undefined.json
Manually-created backups are named in the normal format, e.g. "bookmarks-2013-09-03.json"
Thanks/jim

Not sure what that _undefined is exactly, but the Aurora bookmark backup files are named different than Beta and current release versions are named. As near as I can tell the change came near or with the 08-22 Aurora update; one of my Aurora Profiles has '''_1411''' and the other has '''_7''' in the file name since 08-22 where yours says '''''_undefined'''''. My guess is that change is some sort of identifier for the Profile which generated the backup file.

Can't access the bookmarks backup file I created on my external harddrive from my desktop to restore on my laptop.

I created a firefox bookmarks backup file from my desktop computer on my external USB hard drive so that I could transfer them to my laptop. I go to "organize bookmarks" on my laptop, choose "restore", "choose file", navigate to the external drive. All the regular folders display, but the backup bookmarks file does not display. It's there when I open the drive in windows explorer. Why isn't it there in the restore bookmarks window?

How is your external drive formatted? Use Disk Utility to check the volume format. If it is NTFS, you will need to reformat the HDD as exFAT in order to retain universal compatibility (RW to it on both Mac and Windows).

How do I change the name property of a file in a document library?

I am trying to come up with an Event Receiver that will change the name property of an file when it is uploaded. For instance when a file is uploaded into a document Library, currently the Title is being generated (which is fine)...I want to be able to
change the "Name" property from whatever it is, to match exactly what is in the "Title" property. Are there any sample codes/blogs out there that I can take a look at? Has anyone had any experience doing this? It seems like something
that should be straight forward, to change the "Name" property to match what is in the "Tilte" property.

Hi,
You can try the code below which use the SPFile.MoveTo() function to change the name of the file.
EventFiringEnabled = false;
SPFile f = properties.ListItem.File;
string spfileExt = new FileInfo(f.Name).Extension;
f.MoveTo(properties.ListItem.ParentList.RootFolder.Url +
"/" + properties.ListItem["Title"]+ "_new" + spfileExt);
f.Update();
EventFiringEnabled = true;

How do you change the name of a folder/file on an expansion drive

How do you change the name of a folder/file on an expansion drive or external hard drive?

The same way you change it on the internal drive; click on the name and wait a second or two for the field to drop into editing mode, then just type the new name. Or Get Info on the file/folder and change the name there.

How can I change the name of the XML file which is submitted by mail?

Hello Everybody,
If I submit my pdf file as XML
I will get something like this:
MyFile.PDF -> submit as XML -> MyFile_data.XML
My problem is with the _data at the end of the file name -> this addition is coming from the windows logon language,
I know that because if the windows logon is in spanish I get the addition _datos for example: MyFile_datos.XML
Is there a way to change the name of the xml file for example : MyFile.XML
Thank you all in advance,
Eran

Hello Uti,
I found out it is something with the adobe reader installation.
If it is in English the suffix is _data
If it is in Spanish the suffix is _datos
If it is in Hebrew the suffix is _נתונים
So Now I think i will have to open OSS for this issue.
Thank you so much for your reply - I thought i was the only one with this problem...
Best Regards,
Eran

Difference(s) in usage of a ".json" bookmark backup file and a ".html" bookmark file

Hello to all,
What is the difference between usage of a ".json" bookmark backup file and a ".html" bookmark file? It seems both of them are doing the same job. If it is the case, then why there are two options (.json and .html) for doing the same job? If not, then what is the reason behind availability of the two options and how do they differ? Although I've read all the related documentaion, it's not quite clear form me yet. Please be kind enough to elaborate on the question so that I can get a clear understanding of their right usage(s).
Thank you very much in advance for your time and expertise

The only way that you can rename the audio file from within Audition is to do a Save As from the Waveform view AFAIAA. You can rename clips by clicking in the name box at the top of the Properties window or by right clicking on the clip and selecting Rename from the drop down menu (this will automatically open the Properties window if it isn't already open).

Change author name in my pdf files?

It wont allow me to change the author name in my pdf files. Why not. How can I change it? It wont allow me in 'my preferences' or anywhere else. Not even in the document properties box.

Hi alisons68876995,
You might need to try this out:
Go to "Edit> Preferences> Commenting" and disable "Always use log-in name for author name" option.
Then, make a comment in the PDF and once done, go to Comment properties (Click on options in the comment pop-up) and the choose 'General' to choose the author name.
Now, accept the changes, click on options again and choose 'Make properties default'.
Now, adding a new comment will now include your name.
Please check and then let me know.

How to change the name of a pdf file in iBooks on ipad

I have a number of appliance and tool manuals as pdf files uploaded to my iPad. In order to identify them easier I would like to change the names of the files. I changed them in iTunes on my computer but they do not change on the iPad2 when I sync. Is there a way to do this?

Greg,
I had been working on this a while and found what worked. Save the pdf to your desktop with the file name as you want it. Open up itunes on half of your monitor. Drag the file to the library section of itunes (music, videos, books, movies etc...). When you drag to the library section, it will put it the book section of itunes. Sync and you will see the file in ibooks on your ipad. Give it shot.

Change the name of a saved file ?

I saved a letter and gave it a name. Now I want to change the name of the letter. How in the world do you do this simple thing ? What is going on here.

I agree with you that this is not good design and only adds to the confusion of new users, not lessens it.
It also makes more steps for experienced users.
Still it is what it is. Personally I'm sticking with Snow Leopard. After all the anticipation I found Apple has screwed up Lion and it is looking like their version of Vista. A rearrangement of the deckchairs to distract you from the gaping hole in the side of the ship, and that the Shipping Company has decided they are switching to other businesses.
Save a version is Save, and OSX handles all saves using versions you can step back through.
Duplicate is Save as with an extra step inbetween where the file has another name that you need to change. btw also lacks a shortcut. Nice one Apple.
Revert has always been there in OSX and was one of the few improvements in that it consistently lets you go back to your last saved version.

Zenwork 7 app to backup file normal.dot to network drive

I'm attempting to build a simple zenwork app that backs up the file normal.dot from C:\Documents and Settings\NWUSERNAME\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates
The file no matter what will not copy to the network.
I have succussfully copied other files to the same network drive but for some reason the normal.dot will not copy
Any suggestion(s) would be most appreciated
Thanks

Antivirus? Also check that the file is not zero bytes

Thanks for suggestion
A) the file is not zero bits and
B) I disabled the antivirus software
and my zen app will still not copy the normal.dot file but it will copy another generic file from the same place where my normal.dot file is located
Again tanks for the suggestion

Bookmark backup file saved as "file"...Can't restore

I have to reinstall Windows XP and before I did I backed up my bookmarks using the backup feature in firefox. Now that I'm getting things back in order, firefox won't allow me to restore that file because it's not saved as either the JSON or HTML. It's just listed as "file". I've tried to open it both ways and it won't allow me to. I opened the file in notepad and can see all of bookmarks I had. Is there anyway of getting the file I have to restore into firefox? I've tried searching for this problem but couldn't find anything that helped specificially.

If you ever need to restore your catalog after a computer crash or a change of PC, you start with the TLY file.
