How can I get bookmarks from my laptop now that the motherboard is dead?

Laptop motherboard died - a friend transferred my files onto an external hard drive including my backed-up Firefox bookmarks, but (sadly) the last time I backed those up was 6 months ago. At least I have those on my new laptop now, but I'd *love* to get my most current bookmarks back - the ones I had on my laptop when the motherboard died. Is this possible, or are they gone forever? Thanks!

You will need to be able to access the files on the old hard drive, so hopefully your friend put that drive in a USB enclosure so you can still access the files on that old drive.

  • How can I copy bookmarks from winxp laptop to win7 laptop w/firfox already on it?

    no details. just need to move/copy extensive bookmarks from old laptop to new laptop.

    The ''places.sqlite'' file in the profile folder stores both history and bookmarks. You can replace the current file with the one from the other computer if you want to restore the old set of bookmarks and history (doing so will of course replace the current set).
    * [[Profiles - Where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data]]
    If you only want to replace your bookmarks and leave history unaffected, see
    * [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]]
    If you'd rather add old bookmarks to the existing set and leave current bookmarks unaffected, see the following articles.
    * [[Export Firefox bookmarks to an HTML file to back up or transfer bookmarks]]

  • How can I copy bookmarks from another PC without using the resotre not to loose the ones on the curtrent PC

    I want to copy bookmarks from another PC not using the restore function inorder not to delete bookmarks on current PC

    Export them to an HTML file, then import the HTML file to the other computer, that will add the bookmarks to those that already exist.

  • How can I get songs from one laptop to another?

    I have all my music from one iTunes, and to put the songs in the iPod and then in the other computer using "transfer purchases" isn't working as it is only transferring apps. That's why I need to get it from one computer to another. Thank you.

  • How can I get Photoshop CS4 to work now that I have CS6 (which I dislike for many reasons), on the s

    I have recently purchased CS6 Mac, and now that it's on my computer CS4 won't work.  Adobe told me to post the question on this forum because they refuse to provide any tech support for CS4 or earlier versions of PS now that 6 is out.
    Also, they won't provide any help regarding the fact that all my images from CS4 open at 25% instead of 100% which they did in CS4.  They say I just have to highlight the 25 and type in 100.  Needless to say that is absurd and a big time waster.
    Any help is appreciated.  OS mountain lion on a mac mini, also new.
    Thanks,
    bonnie

    HI and thank you both for your help.  Here is the screen shot.  I don't know if you can see that there is actually an image open.  It's a business card so it's small to begin with, but this is NOT how things opened in CS4.
    The percentage in the lower left cannot be seen because the window is too large and even though I quite the program, it still opened as large as when I closed it.  But it was something like .38%
    How do I get it back to normal working size?
    Another thing I dislike is that when I do a screen shot there is no way to save it without first clicking the red 'close this' button and then reopening it and using 'save as' to type in the correct name.  If I use command s I just get 'untitled with a number'.  It's a lot of unnecessary steps.  Also, is there no other way to save a screen shot other than as a tif and then reopening it to save it as a jpg?
    The cyan lines seemed to have disappeared when opening the other images.  This version is making me nuts.  That's why I want my CS4 back and operational.
    ALSO, I want my brushes that I have collected over the years... they didn't make it over from the dying Mac Pro to this Mac Mini.  They are all in CS4.  How do I do that?
    That's a good beginning for why I don't like it. 
    Thank you,

  • How can I get back my Word docs now that Pages will not open them?

    How can I retrieve my Word docs now that Pages will not open them in Mavericks.  I have a brand new iMac with my evolving manuscript for a book transsferred from my now defunct MacBook Pro by external drive.  Pages tells me that "PowerPC apps are "no longer supported" and Mavericks will not open Microsoft Office, though it is still in Applications.  Would really appreciate ANY help!

    You will have to have an app that will open them first, you can upgrade to Office for Mac 2011 which is an Intel based app then open the docs and retry. Your docs were created with extremely old version of Office for Mac, version 2004!
    Another possiblity is  using a web based compatible MS Office for Mac app and see if it will open your doc and then save it, then attempt to re-open in Pages.

  • How can i get music from my old iphone to the new one

    how do i transfer my music nd pictures to my new iphone from the old one?

    All music on your old iPhone should be in your iTunes library on your computer and can be transferred to your new iPhone in the same way - via the iTunes sync process.
    All photos on your old iPhone that were transferred from your computer should remain on your computer. These photos can be transferred to your new iPhone in the same way - via the iTunes sync process.
    Photos/videos in your old iPhone's Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera. After being imported by your computer, they can be transferred to your new iPhone via the iTunes sync/transfer process.

    Hi all,
    I need to get price values from Price List (Inventory -> Item Master Data screen). It's important to get values from field 'Price' BEFORE item will be added/updated.
    How can I get values from Pricelist listbox?
    Thanks for any suggestions or short sample code.
    Best regards,

    Hi Andy
    Here is som sample code that will get the description of the price list and also the price that is displaying at the time. The item master must be open for this snippet of code

            Dim oEdit As SAPbouiCOM.EditText

  • HT203167 lost my hard drive how can i get songs from ipod back to new computer

    I lost my hard drive and want to get my music back on my new computer. How can I get songs from my ipod to my computer? I am afraid to sync it and losing what is on my ipod. Any help would be appreciated.

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.
    Use your backup copy to put everything back.
    If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup, not good, then you can transfer itunes purchases from your ipod:  File>Transfer Purchases

    How can I stream video from my laptop to apple tv while doing a different task on my laptop?  I want to be able to stream a video to my tv while browsing the internet or working on writing on my laptop. Thanks

    You would have to use airplay within iTunes then, unless you want to use 3rd party software (ie Beamer)

  • How can I transfer photos from my laptop to my phone

    How can I transfer photos from my laptop to my phone

    The same way you sync music, apps.
    iTunes syncs music, video, photos, and more, between your computer and iPhone. Changes you make on one device are copied to the other when you sync. You can also use iTunes to sync files and documents. See Sync with iTunes.
