How can I use same bookmarks file for both Firefox & Internet Explorer?

There are lots of questions and answers about how to import/export bookmarks/favorites to/from Internet Explorer, but they all seem to assume that afterward you're only going to use the one browser.
But like many other people, although I prefer to use Firefox, there are times I need to use IE for certain sites, or to see how a page I'm creating will display to IE users. This means that I regularly edit bookmarks/favorites in both browsers, and can't possibly keep up with importing/exporting back and forth. What I need to do is use the same set of bookmarks with both browsers, so that the next time I bookmark a page in IE it will be available when I re-open Firefox and vice versa.
I had things configured that way on my last computer, and it worked beautifully for years. Of course, it's long enough ago that I forgot how I did it, and a perfect memory wouldn't help anyway, since it was under Windows XP, and older versions of both browsers. Now I'm in the throes of learning Windows 7 on a new machine and haven't yet figured out how it thinks or wants me to think, so until I get my feet under me I'll need some pretty specific instructions. (Explanation would also be appreciated, as I do like to know the whys of things and it will help me become more proficient eventually; but at this moment my mental bandwidth is pretty low and my priority is just to get some basic things working.)

Hi fastauntie,
This add-on may be able to help: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/plainoldfavorites PlainOldFavorites]. It allows you to access your Internet Explorer favourites from within firefox. There are some instructions here: [http://www.howtogeek.com/59050/from-the-tips-box-simple-ie-to-firefox-syncing-easy-windows-toolbars-and-identifying-usb-cables/]
Also you might be interested in [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ie-tab-2-ff-36 IE Tab v2]. It will allow you to use the Internet Explorer rendering engine from within firefox. It is useful if you want to see how a page would display in IE without leaving Firefox.
I hope that helps,
--Edward

How can I use single hard drive for both Mac OS and Windows without changing the formats and reformatting?

I have a windows PC and a Macbook Air and a 1TB external hard drive. They said in order to transfer large files into the hard drive you have to change the format of your hard drive (which would be from MS-DOS to Mac Os extended) so how can I use my external hard drive on my windows PC without reformatting its files? Please heeeelp

Natively Windows can read and write to NTFS, FAT32, and exFAT while the Mac can read and write to FAT32, exFAT, and MacOS Extended.
Option 1: You can purchase driver software for Windows to allow it to read and write Mac's MacOS Extended or you can purchase a driver to allow the Mac to read and write to NTFS.
Option 2: you can format the hard drive for exFAT and use it with both Windows and the Mac without purchasing any special drivers. (Obviously the 4GB file size limit is why you don't want to use FAT32)

I live in Germany and in the USA. How can I use an itunes account for both shops ?

Hi,
I live half a year in Germany and half a year in California. How can I use my different Apple ID's to buy in Germany from the US-iTunes shop and in the U.S. from the German shop. Reason: the shops have different offers. Some booksare not available in the German shop and some are not available in the U.S. shop.
For a person, who lives in both countries the restrictions makes absolutely no sense.
Has anybody an idea how to manage that`
Thanks

For starters, there's probably not many people who have dual national residencies so I'm guessing it's not a priority with Apple. The solution according to the store terms of use regarding your physical location, credit card billing address, nation of store, is when you are physically present in Germany you should be making purchases from the German store with a credit card billed to an address in Germany. When in the USA you buy from the US store with a credit card billed to a USA address. You're not supposed to use a store in another country when not actually present in that country even if you have a valid account there.

How can we use same material code for two different sales area

Hello friendsu2026
Hope you all doing well
I am facing a problem and I will be thankful to all of you, for your suggestions
Issue:
I have a *material created in 3000/10/19 for domestic purpose *,now our company has decided to export it for that we have created a new sales are 3000/13/20 for export,we cannot create the salesa are as 3000/13/19 due to some company issues,
Is there any way how I can use the material already in 3000/10/19 into new sales area 3000/13/20.
Will common distribution channel and division concept will be applicable here
As the material is same,and we donu2019t want to go for any more new material code. *
Thanks
Siddharth Sharma

Hi Sharma,
when a material is used in domestic and exports.....i hope it should be seggreagated based on dist chnl.......but not division.
because material is Division specific. it can be there in only one division. like mother child relation.
that is the reason why...... it is maintained inside BASIC DATA...... but not in input screen while creating material master.[unlike dist chnl]
because a material can be in multiple dist chnl....but not multiple division.
I feel only alternative is creating new material if you are already decided to devide the sales by division for domestic and foriegn.
Purpose of common dist chnl/div is to maintain pricing/condition in one common whenever you change master data.......
hope this gives you the clarity

HT1660 how can I use one single library for all users on the same laptop?

how can I use one single library for all users on the same laptop?

You are most of the way there. Each user having access to hard drive is the key. If users are limited in file privileges this is harder.
Any files you add to your library and any files she adds to her library are available to the other. Just not automatically. Each user must add the files to their own library using the add file or add folder option from menu bar.
What I have done is set library location to a location outside of My Documents\My Music. On my network storage I have a folder names s:\itunes. Both accounts iTunes are set to use this location for the library.

How can I use same iTunes on iPad 64GB and iPhone 5 16 GB memory

How can I use same iTunes account on iPad 64GB and iPhone 5 16 GB memory

Just connect them your computer. iTunes will treat each device separately. Or if you mean iTunes Store account, you can choose what you download to each device, either directly from the iTunes Store or in synching from iTunes on your computer, as long as you don't have automatic downloads turned on.

Welcome to the Apple community.
iTunes and iCloud and different accounts, you will need to delete both accounts from your device before adding the new details in their place.
For iCloud go to settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit the delete button. You can then sign back in using your correct details. For iTunes go to settings >store, tap your account ID and then sign out, you can then sign back in using your correct Apple ID.

How can I use my itunes library for iphoto slideshow?

how can I use my itunes library for iphoto slideshow?

Here's a possible workaround:
Create the slideshow in Iphoto and add a theme and music.
Install Picasa and it will include the slideshow on it's indexed list.
Upload the slideshow to PicasaWebAlbums and send the link to anyone you wish.
The music and theme is preserved.
Caveat: My playback pictures appear darker than usual but that could be just lousy photography...:)
