Copy favorites from Windows 8.1 folder to Bookmarks

I just restored my backups from Carbonite to a new computer with Windows 8.1 (old computer was Windows 7) using Firefox. I kept a folder of my bookmarks in my documents. How can I get them into the new bookmarks? I found a folder called "bookmarkbackups" in my Profiles, but I don't know if I use that, or how to copy it to the current bookmarks. Or - is there a different way to do this? Thanks.

Regarding importing IE Favorites, you probably would have the best luck copying the contents of your old Windows Favorites folder into the new Windows Favorites folder. Then you can export an HTML-format file from IE and import that into Firefox.
Importing an HTML-format bookmarks file adds onto your existing Firefox bookmarks. But you need to do it after you do the restore mentioned in the earlier post, because a restore wipes out everything present in your Firefox bookmarks.
* Export favorites from IE to an HTML file: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/add-view-organize-favorites (Export Favorites is one of the topics listed at the bottom of the page)
* Import the HTML file into Firefox: Import Bookmarks from an HTML file
Success?

How to find the folder (EBS_R12) in OEL 5 after copy/paste from Windows 7 ?

Folks,
Hello. I have just installed Oracle Linux 5 as Guest OS on the top of VMPlayer. Host OS is Windows 7.

Can any folks tell me where is the folder (EBS_R12) in Oracle Linux 5 after copy/paste from Windows 7 ?

Hi,
After coply/paste is completed successfully, I cannot find where is the folder (EBS_R12) in the Guest OS Oracle Linux 5.Was the copy/paste successful.
If yes then you can do the following
#find / -name EBS_R12 -type d -print
(Assuming you copied the folder "EBS_R12" , But not its contents).

Copy paste from windows clipboard to JTextField

I am making a swing application with a lot of components in it. There are a lot of JtextFields in the application. when i do Ctrl+C from a JTextField and do a Ctrl V in a different JTextField of the same application the text gets copied to the second JTextField. But when i copy something from windows and try to paste it in JTextField it does'nt work. Please guide me. Some other component is eating up the Ctrl C/Ctrl V event or what?
I tried adding keystroke's to the InputMap of the JTextField but it still does'nt work.
Kindly guide me. Thanks in advance
Excerpts from the code:
JTextField text1 = new JTextField();
KeyStroke copykeystroke = KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_C, InputEvent.CTRL_MASK);
KeyStroke pastekeystroke = KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_V, InputEvent.CTRL_MASK);
text1.getInputMap().put(copykeystroke, "copy-to-clipboard");
text1.getInputMap().put(pastekeystroke, "paste-from-clipboard");

Copying iTunes from windows 7 pro to new 2013 Mac Pro

Have all my work on my iPhone 5s. Do nothing but manually syncing on lates iTunes. What to copy iTunes to new Mac Pro so I can use my iPhone on either computer.
Laptop at work and desktop at home.
All store bought music on C drive in iTunes as it should be along with books etc. but about 8 gbs of my ripped music some mp3 some ACC all at 320 is on my internal drive.
First thought is change iTunes setting to CONSOLIDATE hoping D drive music will go into iTunes properly.
While I searched KB I came up flat. I like a clean organized computer. While I know windows vert well I am new to Mac pros (but not iPhones nor iOS 7)..
Any way I can do this cleanly. I can put a full backup of iTunes onto a USB hard drive I use for 3rd back up off pictures and iTunes
Thank you

Merry Xmas CF McBlob and thank you. I had thought about that but I want a cleaner easier way of doing it as I start to setup my MacBook Pro I have run into a few things and don't like the D drive idea. I did format a 1 TB drive last nite giving 700gb to Time Capsule and 300gb to data. Used Guid format than journaled for TC and fat for data with disk utility.
There has to be a way I can mirror libraries on computers for iPhone 5s. Heck I see icloud took care of contacts, etc. and iTunes saw all my bought music in cloud and downloaded it to macbook. I consolidated my original library so now all us together. There must be way to copy iTunes from windows and use it to replace folders on Maverick latest so my iPhone 5s is seen the same on windows 7 Pugent system and apple MacBook Pro. I called Apple but got a genius on the phone that had to keep asking for help herself and referencing the KBarticle that gives a few options none of which are clean.
Thank you

Copy favorites from CS3 to CS4

Is there a way to copy favorites, keywords, other settings from CS3 to CS4?
Thanks,

Hi Mogur203,
Sorry, but there is no way to copy your CS3 Favorites over to CS4. However you are able to copy your keywords over if they did not get imported during your first launch.
1. Launch CS3, Click on the flyout menu in the keyword panel
2. Select export, Save the text file
3. Launch CS4, Click on the flyout menu in the keyword panel
4. Select import, select the text file that you saved from CS3
This should complete the import of all the keywords from CS3 to CS4.
Please let me know what other settings you are referring to and I will let you know if you can copy them over or not. Please let me know if you have any other question

After hard drive crash, how can i copy music from iPhone to music folder on new computer?

My hard drive crashed which contained all my music and backups of my iphone 4s. is there a way (using iTunes or some other method) to copy the music from my iPhone to the Music folder on another computer (with Windows 7 as the OS)? Thanks!!

Thanks for the quick answer! It was not what I wanted to hear, though. But, as long as I regularly sync my iPhone and have one or more backups, I can at least be assured that I won't lose the music that's on my phone. Correct? One other thing: when I synced my iPhone to iTunes on another computer, it didn't copy the playlists to iTunes, although the music shows up. Do the playlists get lost?

How to recover passwords, and favorites from Windows.old

I had to install Windows 7 over Windows 7 due to an error I had. I need to recover my passwords/favorites in some way or another. The reason I had this put under Sync is because I had my computer synced to my phone.
First off is it possible to recover the data from the Windows.old file? (Any way how to)
-Ive tried the way I found on google that did not work.
Secondly, when I am in the process of syncing to my phone it gives 3 options on the advanced options, I obviously hit the "Replace all data on this computer with my Sync data".
It says I have 88 bookmarks, but it says that they are on the computer. So that obviously means that they should be able to be recovered without syncing. How would I go about recovering them without replacing everything on my computer with my phone.
Third off, if it is possible to recover my passwords from the Windows.old then please let me know. Thats the most important thing to me.

Hello! It would be nice to have a migration script in Bridge too...
In the past, there were folders you could copy, but given the database changes, I'm not sure, I need to check first with the team.
On a Mac, it is in the collections folders in ~Library/ApplicationSupport/Adobe/Bridge CS5/Collections/
PC(XP): C:Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Adobe\Bridge CS5\collections
VIsta/7: user/app data/roaming/Adobe/Bridge CS5/Collections
Hope this helps

Can't copy files from iTunes to a folder on the desktop

I posted this in the iTunes board and received no responses, so I'm wondering if it's more of an OS problem.
I'm trying to clean up my iTunes library by taking out music I don't listen to that often. I created a folder on my desktop to store the music, should I decide to bring it back into iTunes in the future.
When I select certain groups of songs and drag them onto the folder, they refuse to copy. Some copy no problem, but others just won't go in the folder. The green circle with the plus sign comes up and the folder is highlighted, but when I release the mouse button...nothing.
Any idea why I can't copy the songs? BTW, none of the music is from the iTunes store, so it's not protected.
1.5 Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

I run into that problem periodically. Usually it is because one song file has the same title as another song file (for instance, Knockin' on Heavens door, one by Dylan and one by Clapton, would cause the copy failure). While iTunes has no difficulty, the Finder does, refusing to copy two "identical" items to the same location. Copy in smaller batches, so you can eyeball and make sure each item has a different name. When you run into duplicate names, copy one to another folder and rename it (I append the artist's initials), then move it into your other folder.

Copy music from windows PC to music on ipad/iphone without sync

I have synced my ipad and iphone with macbook pro.But right now I need to download few music albums from a windows desktop which were not purchased from Itunes store but downloaded externally ,onto my ipad and iphone.Is there any possibility for the same.

No, you need to copy them to your MacBook, you can use a USB stick if you haven't set up homesharing.

Copy clip from timeline to Project folder

I've synced a video clip to an audio clip that was recorded separately, and linked them. How do I save this combo? Dragging it back to the project folder only copied the audio track. Help please!

That's correct: nesting is the "official" term for it. You can either pre-build your sequences, and then drop them into your final sequences like clips, or you can drop your constituent clips into the final sequence, select them, and then use the Nest command. The final result is the same, but if I'm doing something like you're doing, I'll typically use the former approach; I don't like how Premiere defaults to calling any sequence created through the Nest command something like "Nested Sequence 34." I'm a little too AR to deal with that If I prebuild my sync sequences, I can name them as I see fit and it's much easier to track the footage. You can even drop one of your clips on the New Item icon and have a sequence created that matches its settings and is named the same as the original clip. There are several ways to skin the proverbial cat here.
Once I have a sequence that consists of 4 video and one audio clip, how do I splice it and dice so that I use only portions of it where needed (the same way I would as if the sequence were a clip)? Remember that only one video clip can be linked to the audio clip (right?).
You can either drop it into your destination sequence and trim it up there, or if you hold down the Control key, if you double-click one of your sequences it will load up in the Source Monitor like a clip. You can also just drag the sequence item to the Source Monitor. From there, edit it into your final sequence as any other clip.

Is there a conflict in copying files from windows to formatted for mac ED.

I am going to format a large external drive for mac to house my movie files under advice of several helpful people here. When I format this drive the am I going to have problems copying the files back to it from my windows pc????
I had already backed my movies and photos' to the drive....but formatting will delete them.
Any feedback appreciated!

To begin with, I've arranged to have your post moved from the Solaris 11 forum to the Solaris 9 forum.
That's the closest arena for questions involving a system running Solaris 8, as you stated in the title of your post.
I think you have a Filezilla issue, not an OS issue.
It's been a very long time since I needed to investigate deep into Filezilla's settings but I recall there's some various choices as to 8-dot-3 versus long-file-name compatibilities.
My various systems with Filezilla installed don't have your issue and they're all installed with what I vaguely remember as its program defaults. When I use the program it is ALWAYS to transfer files back and forth between MSWin and *NIX systems.
You might think about searching for hints and solutions on Filezilla forums/blogs/wikis instead these forums here.

Copying files from Windows rips out group permissions

Hi there all,
Having some problems with group permissions being removed from files when data is copied from a Windows OS.
We currently have a network of Macs that are tied to a AD/OD structure.
We have also set a custom umask for each mac defining 002 as the permissions to be written to files.
However, when we connect to a Windows file share using the smb:// protocol and copy files/folders across to the Mac environment the umask permissions are not written correctly.
The User is given full control and the Everyone group is denied access. However, no group permissions are written at all.
We have tried altering the smb.conf file to no effect.
Could anybody shed some light on this annoying problem?
Many thanks

You have to install this version of samba as Apple have made a complete hash of implementing their own... Another massive fail from the worlds favourite consumer electrics company... Listen to the pro users leaving in droves...

Copy pictures from windows to iPhone

I'm using iTunes on a Win7 PC and want to copy pictures to my iPhone. I created a root or base folder called iPod Pictures (I had an iPod touch) and in that folder are a bunch of other folders containing the pictures. NO pictures are stored in the root folder, only additional folders with the picture files. When iTunes copies those pictures to my iPhone it duplicates all the pictures. One set is in the iPhone album called "Photo Library" and then there is an album for each folder that was originally in that root folder. So I have two complete sets of pictures..........way too many apps taking up too much space, too many songs and two sets of the same pictures is wasting space. On the assumption that I'm doing something wrong in this process, what do I need to do to fix this problem?

There is no duplication. Photo Library is the summary of all photos that are synced to the Device.
example here:
I have 2 sub-folders CAR and PERSONAL synced to the Device:
Car (20photos)
Personal (11photos)
Therefore:
Photo Library (total 31 Photos)

Why can't I copy files from a Mail Archive folder ON MY MAC to another folder?

I created a folder ON MY MAC named Archive. Now I want to move all the email to another folder and all I get is an error message.
I am aware that it was a mistake to name the folder Archive, but that's in the past.
I have tried exporting, but not all the emails get exported.

Click on the drive, choose Get Info from the File menu, and check the format.
If it's formatted as NTFS, reformat it as MS-DOS, exFAT, or Mac OS Extended (Journaled) as desired, or install software such as Paragon NTFS on the computer.
If it's formatted as FAT32 or exFAT, use the Disk Utility's Repair Disk command on it.
