How can I import bookmarks saved in format .json? Saved by Firefox in that format before computer restore.

I have reinstalled F-ox after complete system restore. When I try to import bookmarks the only choice is from IE 6 which was installed by default at restore.

You need to '''restore''' json backups through Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks > Import&Backup > Restore - from file

How can I import bookmark HTML records directly into pre-defined (but empty) Folders?

Firefox is my default browser. I am in the process of replacing an old computer with a new one. I've converted into HTML files the Bookmark content of all of the Folders appearing within the Bookmarks section of Firefox on my old computer. I then uploaded this into the cloud, and downloaded it to my new computer. I've loaded Firefox afresh on the new computer. Now . . .
Ideally, I would like to be able to import these saved/HTML bookmarks (now on my new computer) directly into the new Firefox, keeping the Folder structure maintained in saving them from the old computer; less ideally, but still acceptable, would be to simply re-create as empty Folders each Folder from the old computer's Firefox setup and then do a 'Select All' copy/paste from each of these Folders as saved in my downloaded HTML bookmarks into these initially empty Folders created in the new computer's Firefox Bookmarks section. Is either of these currently possible? In short, this is a quite distinct scenario from importing bookmarks from other browsers on the same computer.
I have tried, but it seems that neither of these functions is currently viable. As common as replacing one computer with another is, I find this a pretty significant oversight which will require a very time consuming conversion process if such functions are not currently available; i.e., I'll have to open each saved HTML Folder and manually activate each individual html bookmark, go to that website, and individually re-bookmark each of these one by one within the Bookmarks section of Firefox on my new computer as if I were bookmarking this site for the very first time. With hundreds and hundreds of bookmarks segregated into about 30 Folders, I think you can see what a productivity drain this will be.
While there appear to be some quite interesting and potentially useful FireFox Addons - e.g., Categorize - none of these seems to address/resolve this problem. Can you advise? Thank you.

To start out with, Firefox hasn't used the HTML format for storing bookmarks for a few years now; you can still import and export bookmarks in HTML format, as you can with just about any other browser out there as an interchange format. Firefox 3.0+ versions use an SQLite database for storing bookmarks and browsing history in the place.sqlite file. Firefox 3.0+ versions do automatic backups of your bookmarks in the JSON format; that file includes "Tags" data but not the web site Favicon data. Restoring a backup from an old PC to the new PC is how Mozilla handles replacing an old computer - or you can "backup" the entire old Profile and transfer that data to the new PC manually. A user could also use Firefox Sync to "sync" their personal data onto the new PC. IMO, you're over-thinking this using dated information (talking about HTML files) without knowing about what options you currently have with Firefox and Mozilla.
Is that a genuine Netscape-1 bookmarks.html file? ''Look at the first line of code in that HTML file to see.'' <br />
Or is it a standard HTML file?
If you have a genuine bookmarks.html file, you can '''Import''' that file thru Organize Bookmarks > Import and Backup > Import HTML... > From an HTML file.
Doing it that way you will be appending the bookmarks & folders that are in the '''Bookmarks Menu''' folder right now. The ordering of the folders and bookmarks in the "imported" file is identical, the "imported" data is added below the existing data. That said, the '''''Bookmarks Toolbar''''' folder and the '''''Unsorted Bookmarks''''' folder from the "imported" data will be in the Bookmarks Menu folder at the bottom; you'll have to move the bookmarks that are in that folder to their respective folders, above and below the Bookmarks Menu folder.

How do I import bookmarks from safari? I am using firefox 7.0.1 with apple lion 10.7.2

The "Import" option is gone with Firefox 7.0.1. I sure would like to be able to import all my bookmarks from Safari

I don't know if you have saved bookmarks since original Firefox install., but importing bookmarks later will add them all the end of the "Bookmarks Menu": you will have to
move the content of the bookmarks toolbar however it is called in IE to your "Bookmarks Toolbar" the rest of your bookmarks you want to move to "Bookmarks Menu" especially if they are organized into folders.
Bookmarks menu > Show All Bookmarks (Ctrl+Shift+B) > Import > from Internet Explorer
Having Firefox as the default browser is needed which you recognized, but since IE had been you default browser you must tell IE to check to see if it is the default browser, it will test to see if it is and find that is not. Refuse the request to make IE the default broswer and you should be okay.

How can i import the backup of my iphone calendar back to my ical on the computer? (lion) no cloud

i changed in my settings, that I do not want to backup in the cloud. now all my calendar dates are gone (5 years of data).. in my iphone (4gs OS5) everything is in. How can i bring back these data back to my ical on my computer?

Apps can be re-downloaded using the same itunes account you used to purchased them, so there's no big problem there, whereas for music you need to get it out of that phone. If you use a Mac download detune by headlightsoft. Or if you're on a PC download Sharepod, both programs allow you to pich and choose what music you want to copy back to your computer, so you have all that stuff backed up. Also always make a backup in itunes before updating anything. If you're currently on iOS 5 you don't need to update through a computer, you can do an over the air update, go to settings/general/software update
Hope this helps.
in any case do back up your music to avoid any catastrophe

How can I import passwords and usernames from Google Chrome into FireFox 3.5

Most of my passwords are in the Google Chrome browser, but I want to use Firefox as doubleup. So the list with usernames and passwords should be synchronised.

Will save the Chrome passwords in CSV format which may be imported into Firefox (Tools, options, Security, import/export passwords)

Can I combine bookmarks etc from different computers when syncing Firefox or will the main computer erase the other devices' bookmarks, etc?

I have different bookmarks on the different computers that I want to sync. I want to have all the bookmarks on all the devices. Is this possible when I sync? Thank you.

Hi!
Yes, Firefox Sync merges and adds all the info in all the profiles. It doesn't delete the information on any of them. That way you will have the information from any of your devices in the rest of the devices.

(How can we) Import Flash Professional .FLA file format?

How can we import a Flash Professional .fla file format into Flash Catalyst? It would appear that we can't...at least not yet! I have added this as a feature request within the adobe labs site for Catalyst. Someone at Adobe suggested that I also explore the forums, so here we are. If you would also like to have this feature added, please let Adobe know by promoting the
idea.
Our use case is this: we have a large Flash file with a library of over one thousand skins and assets that were built in Flash with Adobe's Flex Skins Templates. These stateful, graphical skins were used within a custom theme by several Flex 3 projects.
Now that we are looking to migrate to FlashBuilder 4, and start to use Spark components, we are trying to find a workflow that allows us to use Adobe tools and to reuse our existing vector artwork. Since we have such a large number of assets, we are exploring various approaches, including the use of JSFL. So far we haven't found a good way to migrate from Flash-built skins for Flex 3 to Catalyst-built skins for FlashBuilder 4.

Hi Ajay,
See attached V 7.0 example...
Hope it helps,
Nick

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
