How can i copy my bookmarks to save in case of computer crash

I am having a lot of trouble with my computer.it continually causing me a lot of frustration. I need to know how to copy my bookmarks to put in another compunter

It is a good idea to manually backup your bookmarks, and maybe even your full Firefox profile.
* [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
** [[Profiles - Where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data]]
*[[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]]
Saved Bookmarks probably should not be lost if the computer crashes. The main method of keeping copies are to back them up manually, or if you have another device to sync with a second device. The backups if you sync are those on the second device. Note Sync is NOT intended to backup up to a server. (The replacement service under development may backup to a server. It is also possible to use an add-on or other utilities to help , and additionally note Firefox automatically creates some backups itself.
* [[Firefox Sync - Take your bookmarks, tabs and personal information with you]]
* https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/febe/
You mention crashes presumably they relate to some problems with your machine, its OS or some other program rather than crashes of Firefox itself.
*[[Firefox crashes - Troubleshoot, prevent and get help fixing crashes]]
Firefox also attempts to save tabs and windows open at the time of an unexpected close-down or crash
*[[How do I restore my tabs from last time?]]
* [[Restore previous session - Configure when Firefox shows your most recent tabs and windows]]

Hope the information helps.

How can i copy my bookmarks ?

hi
can someone please tell me where do i find my bookmarks , i need to copy my bookmarks but it's not letting me copy all of them at once form the bookmarks menu .
thanks and have a good night

HI,
Much easier way to do this ...
With Safari open, from the Safari Menu Bar, click File/Export Bookmarks. Save that file to an external source such as an external drive.
If you should need to reformat the hard drive you can just open Safari and click: File/Import Bookmarks.

How can I copy my bookmarks without using Firefox Sync?

I am just not comfortable putting my personal data onto an online server, which is what I'm doing with Firefox Sync. Is there a way to copy my bookmarks onto a flash drive, like we used to be able to do?

How can I copy selected bookmarks to a second FireFox profile

I have two FireFox profiles with different bookmarks. What I want to do specifically is to copy, or preferably sync, the Multimedia bookmark folders for both profiles. Can this be done, and if so how?
Thanx,
zepe

Use the -no-remote command line switch to open another Firefox instance with its own profile to run different Firefox instances simultaneously.

How can I copy Word Document and save them in my iPad?

Hi, I just recieved my iPad 3 today. I've never used the Apple format before. All of my recipes are in Microsoft Word all neatly organized, there are many... I mean a lifetime of them and I'm old! I bought the iPad to use it in the kitchen and for the life of me I can't seem to figure out how to transfer my Word files to my iPad and put them in a document folder. Can anyone help? I sure would appreiciate it.

There are no document folders in the iPad. Files and documents are saved within the app that is used to create, edit and view the corresponding files. You need an app that can read and edit Word files and you will be able to save the files within that app.
You can email files, use DropBox or another cloud service, use iOS file sharing or use iCloud - if you use one of the Apple iWorks apps - in this case it would be Pages.
There are MS Office compatible apps available in the app store like Quick Office Pro and Documents to Go. Take a look at those and see what you think.

IPhoto '08: How can I copy an album or slide show to another computer?

Hi,
I want to take a slideshow of a trip that I put music to and move it from my iBook to my new iMac so I can use iDVD to make a DVD of the slideshow (since I can't burn DVDs on my iBook). I have TONS of pictures from this trip, so it would really be a pain to cull through them again, even though all of the photos are on both computers.
Is there any way to copy a slide show (or an iPhoto album) to another computer via an external hard drive? I looked in the iPhoto Help and couldn't find anything on the subject.
Thanks for any advice! I promised some tripmates I would send them a DVD of my photos back in October, so I'm starting to feel guilty!
Karin

Karin:
Here is one way to create the DVD:
1 - on your iBook with the slideshow ready to do use the Share->Send to iDVD menu option.
2 - once the slideshow is compiled into a Quicktime movie and is exported to iDVD, quit iDVD without saving.
3 - look inside your Movies folder for the QT movie that was just created.
4 - copy that movie file to your iMac.
5 - open iDVD on your iMac, select a theme and add a slideshow to the menu window with the "+" button at the bottom.
6 - open the slideshow editing window by double clicking on the slideshow button or text in the menu.
7 - drag the QT movie into the slideshow window on the left. This will let iDVD scale the QT movie to the TV safe area so non of the movie is lost to the TV overscan that will occur if the movie is added directly to the menu.
8 - once the iDVD project is ready use the File->Save as Disk Image to save the project as a disk image. This allows you to mount the disk image and play it with DVD Player to confirm that the encoding went as it should and there are no typos in the menu or title (my biggest error).
9 - when ready to burn use Disk Utility to burn, at the slowest speed possible, to a DVD-R disk.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

How can I get my bookmarks into my new [Windows 7] computer from my old [XP] hard drive?

I copied Favorites already but they don't show up in Firefox - and I copied before installing Firefox.

Not from Mozilla. Nobody knows your Sync Key except for you. 
Is that hard drive usable at all? Like as an external disk in a USB hard drive enclosure?
If so, you can recover your Firefox data from that drive. 
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Recovering+important+data+from+an+old+profile
Your old Profile is located here in Vista & Win7: 
''drive'':\Users\''Windows login user name''\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\''profile_name'' 
Make sure that you unhide "Hidden files and folder" in the Control Panel > Folder Options -> View

You make a backup of those two files and if you want to restore the passwords then you place those two files a a Firefox profile folder.

How can I copy cell formatting from one range to another?

How can I copy cell formatting from one range to another, including text fonts, colours, borders, etc., so that, for example, I can reuse a formatted reconciliation table again in different parts of a sheet?

Hi George,
Wayne found the Spinning Beachball of Death, and you will find it too.
Numbers is not good at handling large datasets. Might I suggest that you group your data into smaller sets (each month, perhaps?) and save each group in a separate Numbers document. Numbers will not link between documents, but you could have a summary Table within each document. Then comes the "clunky" bit of copying all those summary tables into a master document where you do the final processing of the data.
Regards,
Ian.

I am not able to access Firefox under one user account on my computer so I created another account. How can I transfer the bookmarks from the old account?

I use windows Vista and I cannot open Firefox under one user account (I keep receiving the "firefox profile cannot be loaded . . ." error message) on my computer so I created another account. How can I transfer the bookmarks from the old account?

NOTE: you can skip this 1st step.
Step 1
I'm on Win7 so the paths might be slightly different... C:\Users\(YOUR PC ACCOUNT)\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\bnelgkol.default\bookmarkbackups ... Find the "bookmarks-[DATE].json" you want and copy it to the profile you want. You may want to change the date to a name you will recognize.
Step 2
Then on your browser "Bookmarks>Show All Bookmarks or Ctrl+Shift+B ". This will bring up the Bookmark Organizer, I think they call it Library now. From there click "Import & Back up>Restore" this will bring up a drop down with your back ups. If you followed step 1, find the json you added and select it. If you skipped step 1, from "Import & Back up>Restore" select "Choose File..." Then browser for the json you want to import. Which should be in a similar location as mentioned in step 1.
NOTE: "AppData" is a hidden folder, will have to set show hidden folders to be able to see it.

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

Open the Playlist.
File>Print.
In the Print settings, select Save as PDF
Open Pages and a new document
Open the PDF with Preview or Reader
Select ALL text in the PDF
Copy
Paste into the Pages document.
That's a long way to do it unless you know of a way to import PDFs into iWork.
