How can I duplicate the same settings (add-ons AND bookmarks) from Firefox on one machine to another

From memory, it used to be possible to create a srtup file of sorts to re-create/re-establish not only bookmarks but also all the add-ons from one Firefox to another - on a different machine. In short, I would like to have them to be identical.

You need to mount that other partition to be able to access files on it and then browse to the hidden profile folder on that partition.
/home/user/.mozilla/firefox
You can only restore a JSON backup, unless you export the bookmarks in that other OS to an HTML file.

How can I duplicate the same table in 3 pages?

hi everybody!
i have a form with a master page (containing the invoice fields) and 3 body pages that reference the master page.
in each one of these 3 pages there is a table with one header row, 7 body rows and a footer row.
the table was copied and pasted from page 1 to page 2 and page 3.
between the body rows there are two rows that are bound with table data, one for invoice details and one for tax details.
my problem is that in the 2nd and 3rd page in pdf output invoice and tax details are empty, while the other lines are present.
it seems like there is a table index that loops once in the first page until it reaches the end of the table, so for page 2 and 3 it is already at the end...
my question is: how can i get the same complete table in three form pages?
thanks in advance

Not sure I follow .....are you asking for Page 2 and 3 to have the same table and values in the table as on Page1 or does each page have unique data?
Where is the data coming from? Is the user typing it in or is there a separate data source somewhere?

How can I use the same catalog on PC and MAC?

I keep my catalog and photos on an external hard drive. I have both PCs and a MAC and I would like to be able to access the same catalog of photos on both my PC and my MAC using LR2. I am using v 2.3. The problem is the location of the photo is referenced differently on the PC than on the MAC. Does any one have any idea how I might accomplish this?
If this is impossible, then can anyone at least tell me how I can convert my catalog file (lrcat) so that the location of photos that are currently referenced using a drive and path (eg, p:\myphotos\...) to a format that can be used on the MAC so Lightroom running on the MAC will know about the photos on my external drive?

I have figured out the answer to my question. Thanks to those who tried to help.
First of all, I found that Lightroom's 'Locate folder' didn't work for me. It might have if I had tried that the first time I tried to convert things, but I had tried to locate a few photos already, so I was always told that the folder I was trying to locate was already in the catalog.
Breifly, what did work was to locate individual photos using the ? you see on the photo when in grid mode in the Library view and specify that other photos nearby should also be relocated. By choosing a photo at the top of the directory tree, Lightroom will search for all photos in the directory containing your photo and all subdirectories of it.
The details:
What did work, was to individually locate photos using the ? you see on the photo when in grid mode in the Library view. If you turn on the choice to locate other photos nearby, then Lightroom will search for other photos in this directory and in all subdirectories of the one containing your located photo. This was a good start, but the problem for me is that my photos are stored in many directories below an organizing directory (eg, \2009\2009-01-02) and the organizing directory (\2009 in this example) does not contain any photos to locate. Furthermore, each of my orgainizing 'yearly' directories are organized in one top directory (\Photos) that also has no photos in it to locate. So, to make use of this feature, I had to create a photo in at least the top directory that I could use for finding the rest. I call this a 'FindMe' photo. I found that it needed to have a totally different file name than any other photo in my library. So, I created on be exporting another photo (with very poor resolution to keep the size small) and giving it a name of FindMe-<directory_name>. I also found it helpful to give it a caption of 'FindMe' to use in locating the photo. I imported this photo into the top directory (\Photos) on the PC.
The next step was to open the .lrcat on the Mac. Looking at the grid of all photos, I narrowed down the photos to just those that had a caption of 'FindMe' or a file name of FindMe. That located the photo in \Photos that I could use to start the search for all the rest. (Note that giving your locating photo a name you can easily find is important because all you will be able to see when you look at all of the photos is just a blank square and I couldn't find any way to tell Lightroom to only show me photos in this one directory, excluding subdirectories (this is a feature they should add to Lightroom).)
Now theoretically, this trick should have located all of my photos. However, in a library of over 55,000 photos, there's bound to be some problems. It turns out that my library that started in Adobe Photoshop Elements had some entries that didn't point to the file properly...in fact there was a blank space at the beginning of the filename. We had caught this problem and renamed the file on the hard drive properly, but a few catalog entries had missed the correction of the filename before we converted this to a Lightroom catalog. (Elements tolerated the blank space in the file name, Lightroom does not). This caused Lightroom to hang when it was locating file. I solved this problem by fixing a lot of these in the PC catalog. (This took some doing, because Lightroom would first give me a ? to let me locate the file, but it quickly realized it had a problem and changed the ? to a danger sign that would not allow me to do anything with the photo. So, I had to act quickly to correct the problem with these photos.) That fixed a lot, but there were apparently still some problems in the library that caused Lightroom to hang when locating photos. Also, as the number of photos that were properly relocated grew, I found that it took too long to let Lightroom try to fix the entire library. So, I started creating FindMe photos in the few remaining 'yearly' organizing directories and locating files in each of these. That pretty much did the trick.
My wishlist for Lightroom new features:
1. I would like it if I could tell Lightroom to locate all photos within a directory (with the choice to includ subdirectories) in a particular place. By this, I mean to go from the directory, not from a specific photo within a directory.
2. I want to be able to tell Lightroom to only display photos within a particular directory (excluding those in the subdirectory). This would make it a lot easier to locate my 'find me' photos and would eliminate the need to make the so identifiable.

How can I restore all my previous add-ons and settings I had prior to your latest upgrade?

There was a recent update to TB and as usual I just approved the update and went about my business. today I go back to my TB and the font sizes everywhere are changed, I increased the size in options for the screen such as this message is being entered, I cannot tell you the size of all text outside if this window as they are all CHOSE such as File-Edit-View etc. none of the menu items will change the size and all of the tools I had are gone. After noticing those tools gone I found all my add-ons are also gone. I did read an answer about doing daily builds but 1. I don’t know what daily builds are and 2. While I do a back up of everything on my computer using Acronis software to save in my personal 20 terabyte cloud I am not sure if I would guess which directories and subdirectories for TB I should use. If there is not a solution please let me know and if there is a solution please answer in normal user understandable words. Thank you for any help you might be.

hello Michells, this will likely be caused by the user.js file in your profile folder.
go to the firefox ''menu ≡ > help ? > troubleshooting information'', click on ''profile folder/show folder'' and close all firefox windows afterwards. a windows explorer window should open up - in there delete the file named '''user.js''' and restart the browser afterwards.

How can i get the same colors in PS and Bridge

My pictures is shown with stronger contrast and saturation in bridge than the original PS file in PS.
Im trying to open the Suite Color Management in Bridge but it says that "Suite Color Management requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least onc to enable this feature". What shoud I do?

Remember that Photoshop is showing you a rendering of the original file, while Bridge is showing you a rendering of the sRGB preview Bridge itself generates. Color management plays a huge role in that depending on whether the file is tagged (has an embedded profile) or not.
As for the illusory "Suite Color Management", Trevor is right in pointing out that it is utterly irrelevant if you only have Photoshop and Bridge but none of the other applications in a suite. Besides…
…Inconsistency between or among applications in the artificial "suites" should come as no surprise.
The "suite" concept is a fabrication of Adobe marketing and bean-counting types. The engineering teams are totally independent of each other, they are not only in different buildings but in different cities and states of the American Union, even in different countries.
The fact that they have little if any communication among them is highlighted by requests occasionally made in these forums by top Adobe engineers to let the other teams know when there are problems in one application that impact our workflow in another one.

How can I use the same "I Tunes" on two different computers

I’m using two different kinds of Personal Computer: One is Desktop PC And the other one is Notebook .
In each computer there are the same songs and when I get the new ones to the Desktop I want them to be placed on the Notebook or reverse.
Where does the I Tunes save the playlist on the hard drive ?
I have prepared a playlist on my Notebook and want it to be seen on the Desktop but I dont want to fallow the steps File > Library > Export Playlist on the Notebook. Is there any other way to make this issue instead of the mentioned steps.
How can I see the same Playlists and songs on two different computers ( notebook and desktop) including the updating processes.
Operating systems of the computers:
Desktop: XP Pro
Notebook: Vista Bussiness

I use SyncToy 2.0 to keep two instances of my library in sync. SyncToy's preview will show which files it is about to update giving you a chance to spot unexpected changes and during the run only the changed files will be copied saving lots of time.
As long as I sync after making updates at one instance of the library before making any updates at the other then everything works just fine. I periodically run iTunes Folder Watch to check for any orphaned entries or new items that haven't been imported into the active library. If your machines are regularly networked together this process is fairly straightfoward. Mine are in disparate locations so I use one of the (physically) small WD My Passport host powered drives which I take between home & work, synchronising at either end. This gives me three complete copies of my library so I'm covering backup & synchronisation in the same operation.
When connecting my iPod at either location iTunes recognises itself as the "home" library for the iPod so I'm able to use the sync with selected playlists option without getting warning messages about the iPod being synced with a different library.

For sideloaded content the nook pulls the metadata from ePub file itself. I would suggest looking at a program like Sigil or Calibre that will let you edit the metadata in the book to make it appear like you want.
For the PDF vs ePub - No, that's the way PDFs work (think of them as graphics, not text), wheres ePubs are Web Pages - so no you can't them to behave exactly alike without converting the files.

That indicates a hardware failure. Read here:

If nothing works, you most likely have a hardware failure. Make an appointment at an Apple store to confirm.

Hi,
I have attached here an example of doing the same using shift registers and local variables. Take a look. Shift register is always a better option than local variables.
