How can I import my Favourites, cookies etcetera from Internet Explorer 9 into Firefox 7?

I used Internet Explorer 9 before, but I want to start using Firefox 7 as my standard browser, but I want to keep my old Favourites. How can I do that?

If Firefox doesn't offer to import the Opera bookmarks then export the bookmarks in Opera to an HTML file and import that file in Firefox.

  • How can i import bookmars history cookies etc. from my Opera brower to the newest version of Mozilla Firefox?

    I was useing Opera - got dull with it, now i want to use Mozilla Firefox, but i cannot import anything from my old browser. While i was installing the new browser it asked me if i want to import any bookmarks history passwords etc. from any other browsers and the only option was Microsoft Internet Explorer, there was no option where i could choose Opera.....

  • How can I save the .mp4 files downloaded from internet to ipad memory so that I don't have to download everytime to view them again

    How can I save the .mp4 files downloaded from internet to ipad memory so that I don't have to download everytime to view them again. Also they might remove them from internet so I can't rely on the bookmark to them.

    I'm trying to send home movies to my 10 year old nephew who lives across the country. He doesn't have a computer. He has an iPod touch. His parents have computers. But I don't want everything I ever try to have him do result in "you need your parent's computer for this." It's getting really embarrassing. I have converted my family over to Apple computers but now they want to buy iPhones, iPads, and iPods even though I tell them to go Android. It took a decade to convert them away from windows now I'm trying to keep them away from these freedom limited iOS devices and they won't listen. Then it becomes my responsibility to make their iPads print to their fancy pre-airprint color laser jet printers, get home movies onto them, and countless other things. It's driving me nuts.
    I have converted these files to a format that the iOS devices will play directly off of dropbox. Now, how do I get the infernal devices to save it instead of play it?

  • How to transfer favourites from Internet Explorer to firefox

    When I ask this question, I get referred to the answer for transferring from Outlook Express - which is no answer!

  • I have followed "Importing favorites and other data from Internet Explorer" but although I've worked through the dtages and it says it has worked, the expected internet explorer folder does not appear in bookmarks

    I have installed Firefox today, and like the look of and the speed. But I have an extensive set of foldersin my IE Favorites and remebered passwords I don't want to have to reimput.
    I have now tried twice folowing "Importing favorites and other data from Internet Explorer " which seemed to go smoothly, once with IE open and the other with it closed, and closed down my PC between each attempted installation. Any ideas?

    It usually works better if you export the Favorites in IE to an HTML file and import that file in the Firefox Bookmarks Manager.
    * Export the favorites in IE to an HTML file (bookmarks.html): File > Import and Export
    * Import the HTML file in Firefox: Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Import HTML: From File

  • How can I import a previous recipient list from Snow Leopard?

    I just upgraded computers and did a clean install without Migration Assistant. How can I import the previous recipient list in Mail? As a way of having a backup, I deleted my address book on the old computed, added all the previous recipients to the Address Book, and exported the address book as an Address Book Archive and also a VCF file.
    Thanks.

    PAHU,
    To answer your question, the new AIO is also a Canon, an MG8120 - I could be wrong, but I got the impression the printer removal might have been part of the Lion upgrade code.  i.e. "I see you have a new printer, do you  want to keep the old printer that I can't find?"
    I see the IJScanner and Devices folders.  Given that both AIOs are/were Canons, any suggestions on how to remove just the MP970 components without affecting the MG8120 ones?  (The ones in the TWAIN Data Sources were clearly labeled, so it was easy to tell what belonged to what.)
    Thanks in advance.
    Sorry for the delay in responding.  I must have my notifications messed up.  Never got an e-mail indicating there had been a reply to my question.

  • I switched from Internet Explorer to Firefox about 2 hours ago, and want to recover my previous "Favorites" bookmarks. How?

    Until two hours ago, we had a list of "Favorite" bookmarks that were lost after making Firefox our browser. How can I restore those items?

    You can find the Import menu entry in the Bookmarks Manager (Library)

  • Firefox will not import all of the favorites from Internet Explorer 11 in Windows 8.1 64-bit OS!

    There is another post about this problem in the forum, but the answer does not work. This is the first time I've ever encountered this problem when installing/using Firefox on my desktop PC. I have a new (3/25/14) Dell XPS 8700 desktop tower with Windows 8.1 64-bit (and now Update 1) installed, along with Internet Explorer 11. I previously had a 2005 Dell Dimension 5100 desktop tower running XP Pro SP3 32-bit, which never had any issues running Firefox, but has since died. I used to run Firefox as my default browser, but not any longer. Now, during the install process, Firefox asks if you want to import from Internet Explorer, as it has always done before. I chose yes, and it reported that it pulled everything in from IE. However, it only imported my favorites folders whose names start with a numeral, and then A, B, and onward down the alphabet, but it doesn't import anything more after getting to the folders whose names start with E. So, all of my remaining Favorites folders whose names start with F, G, and forward down the alphabet from there are all absent from Firefox's Bookmarks. I also tried importing the favorites after installing Firefox, which I don't prefer since Firefox installs a folder called Internet Explorer to go to first to get to your favorites. However, still, Firefox only brought in my favorites folders from A to E, and stopped there again. I do not see any way to export my favorites from Internet Explorer (there is no import/export option under favorites, nor anywhere else in IE 11). Uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox resulted in the same problem, even after making sure to delete my settings, etc., in the process. Please update Firefox's installation executable so it's able to import ALL of Internet Explorer 11's favorites folders and their contents, complete, as it has always done before. Please contact me when the corrected executable to install Firefox properly is ready for download. Thank you.

    If there are problems with importing the IE Favorites in Firefox then export the favorites in IE to an HTML file and import that file in the Firefox Bookmarks Manager.
    If you do not have the menu bar in IE then right-click the toolbar at the top to enable the Menu Bar.
    *Export the favorites in IE to an HTML file (bookmarks.html):<br>File > Import and Export
    *Import the HTML file in Firefox:<br>Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Import Bookmarks from HTML

  • How can I import my .mac address book from online to my computer?

    My macbook was stolen last week, and I am now using an older iBook that we had, but I haven't been able to retrieve my mail address book from the backups I was making. I have most of the contacts in my address book when using .mac web-based email, but not on my computer. I am afraid to turn on syncing because I don't want my computer to erase all the addresses stored online. How can I reverse sync, and get my online address book to import to my computer?
    Thanks.

    go to 'system prefernces > .Mac > advanced > reset sync data'
    Then choose to replace everything on your compu with .Mac data. (Back up before you begin! or is there really nothing to back up, then don't bother of course)

  • How can I import ALL of my files from my iPod Touch to iTunes?

    My laptop recently caught a virus and I had to reformat the hardive meaning losing my iTunes library.  I still have everthing on my iPod and an external hard drive.  I've already tried the transfer purchases button which did just that, transfer my downloaded apps and purchased music.  But what about my 1400 other songs?  I'd rather not download third party software and my wife found a way to do it with her iPod nano but my touch won't work that way because it only reads my iPod as a camera for some strange reason.  Being a 1st gen it has no camera.  When I transferred the purchased files it had me autherize the computer so can I simply just sync it now or will I lose everything?  Or can i just transfer everything from my old library on my external to my new one?

    - For an iOS devoce like the iPod touchyou need a third-party program to copy non-iTunes purchased music from an iPod to a computer
    - Yes you can just import the music from the external HD to your iTunes library.
    - Now to switch syncing computers you need to do the following to retain app data and other information on the iPod.
    - Connect the iPod from to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices i iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup
    Note that the backup that iTunes makes does not include synced media like apps and music. You must hae have those in the iTunes library before the restore since the restore eases the iPod.

  • How can i import and order photo books from older iPhoto versions?

    I have made a photobook which i have not ordered at apple yet. It's on another macbook still running iphoto 07 (unable to update iphoto, because to old for Mavericks)... Somehow i can't import this album on my laptop running iphoto 9.5.1 and order it from here...
    Does anyone have solution?

    Read again - the word "import" does not appear in either answeer - you never ever import one iPhoto library into another one
    books do not actually exist - they are simply database entries - so you have to move the entire iphoto library
    1 - rename it on the source machine
    2 - Connect the two Macs together (network, firewire target mode, etc)  or use an external hard drive formatted Mac OS extended (journaled)
    3 -  drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder of the new Mac
    4 - depress the opeion key and launch iPhoto on the new mac
    5 -  select the library with the book, convert it as needed and you will be ready move forward
    - be sure to
    Before ordering your book preview it using this method -http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it.
    there may be differences in the book due to a new system

  • How can I install the Flash Debug Player in Internet Explorer 10?

    I just downloaded the Flash Debug Player 11.4.402.287 from http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/updaters/11/flashplayer_11_ax_debug.exe - however, trying to install it merely shows a message box saying
    The installation encountered errors: Your Microsoft Internet Explorer browser includes the latest version of the Adobe Flash Player built-in. Windows Update will inform you when new versions of the Flash Player are available.
    I'm using Internet Explorer 10.0.9200.16384 on Windows 8. A bit of Google research suggested that IE10 has a Flash player built-in (similiar to what Google Chrome has) so I looked for a way to disable the player. It seems that this is indeed possible by clicking the Cogwheel icon in the IE10 toolbar and then selecting 'Manage Add-ons'. The dialog which shows up shows a 'Shockwave Flash Object' entry. However, even with the built-in Flash player disabled, the Flash Debug Player installer keeps giving the same message.
    Does anybody knwo how I can install the Flash Debug Player in IE10?

    I do not know, but check if there is anything useful in http://wwwimages.adobe.com/www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/flashplayer/pdfs/flas h_player_windows8_admin_guide.pdf

  • How can I access to my time capsule from internet?

    The main reason for bought a time capsule was that i thought i could access to my documents in it from internet. Now I can't find information about it in internet. It is possible to do it?...
    Thanks!

    Since Apple has changed the MobileMe service it is difficult.
    If you have a static IP yes, easy.. in your Mac (must be a Mac), in finder go, go to server, type AFP://IPofTC
    That is the public IP of the TC assuming it is the only router in the network, and you have checked wan access in the disk settings.. and put in a decent password.
    If you do not have a static IP, the TC is difficult. There is no dyndns client.. and you have to have your own domain to get the IP of the TC as it rotates.
    It is easier as almost every router available today has dyndns client.. to relegate the TC to bridge and use a different router and simply port forward AFP.. Please search as there are plenty of posts about how to do it.
    Give exact details of your network if you run into issues.
    And think about security .. AFP is not highly secure.

    Hello jardinpaul,
    You can use Visual Basic to call a LabVIEW DLL that you create from your LabVIEW VI. Take a look at this example on our website:
