You can also check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox profile folder.

  • How do I find an old Bookmarks folder and addresses therein on Time Machine?

    How do I find an old Bookmarks folder and addresses therein on Time Machine?  My current bookmarks folder was overwritten by iCloud.

    Short Version: Restore ~/Library/Safari/Bookmarks.plist
    Long Version: First you need to open your (normally hidden) Library folder.  One way is to press option then use the Finder Go menu to select "Library".  In there you will find a Safari folder. Open that folder then enter Time Machine.  Restore Bookmarks.plist.

  • My motherboard died but the hardrive is still good. How can I get my old bookmarks and copy them to my new computer?

    My old Gateway laptop died (about 2 years old)but the harddrive is still good. I was able to retrieve all my old info EXCEPT I can't figure how to get to my old bookmarks file so I can copy them into my new computer. I believe. I have tried several forums, but the instructions don't give me the results I need. I am running my old drive with a USB adapter so I can see all my files, but can't get to/find the bookmark file.

  • I have a new pc how can i find my old music

    i have a new pc how can i find my old files

    If you are just transfering purchased music then when you iPhone is plugged in, right click on the name of it on the left hand side of iTunes, click transfer purchased.
    If you want to transfer all media from your iPhone to your computer, if it isn't all purchased through iTunes, then you are going to have to buy software that will do it.
    http://www.mp4converter.net/iphone-transfer-mac.html should work, I haven't used it before but it looks promising and the reviews are good.

  • How can I find a lost bookmark folder in another bookmark folder? I had a sticky mouse when I moved it.

    How can I find a lost bookmark folder? A folder stuck on my mouse pointer I shook the mouse and it released the folder somewhere in the hundreds of other bookmark folders. I don't want to have to open every folder and search every file to locate it. Any ideas would be appreciated.

    Renaldo,
    You might try restoring a backup of your bookmarks.
    1. From the menu at the top of the Firefox window bar, click the Bookmarks menu and choose Organize Bookmarks to open the Library window.
    2. Before proceeding, you should make a backup of your current bookmarks.
    1. From the toolbar on the Library window, select Import and Backup and choose Backup.
    2. Firefox will ask you to save the bookmark backup to a folder on your hard drive. Choose a location that you will remember.
    3. Your current bookmarks have been backed up to the file you selected.
    3. From the toolbar on the Library window, select Import and Backup to open the Import and Backup menu, and pick Restore to see a list of available bookmark backups organized by date.
    4. To restore one of the listed backups, select it from the Restore menu. Choose the newest bookmark backup that was created before the bookmarks were lost. You will lose all changes to your bookmarks that occurred after the date you select.
    '''NOTE:''' To restore a backup that you saved manually, select Choose File from the Restore menu instead of selecting an automatic backup
    5. A confirmation window will appear asking you to confirm replacing your bookmarks with the backup. To replace the bookmarks, press OK. To go back, press Cancel.
    '''NOTE:''' You cannot undo this unless you saved a backup file as instructed above.
    6. Your bookmarks have been restored to the date you selected. If your bookmarks do not show up after completing the restore process, repeat the above steps to restore an earlier backup.
    If the backup follows the bookmark structure then the missing folder should be displayed

  • I have recently switched to icloud.  Lately I have not been able to receive emails.  A msg comes up asking me toat reenter password.  Perhaps I am entering the wrong password and have forgotten what it is.  How can I find my old password or change it?

    I have recently switched to icloud.  Lately I have not been able to receive emails.  A msg comes up asking me to reenter my password.  Perhaps I am entering the wrong password and have forgotten what it is.  How can I find my old password or change it and get my .mac account email working again?

    If it was setup using your iPhone and your Apple ID then as far as the iCloud team will be able to find out, you set it up.  Passwords cannot be retrieved.
    Change all passwords on accounts associated with your iPhone.

  • What has happened to the orange bookmark box in the top lh corner how do I find and make bookmarks?

    Seems an update has happened - why? Any how the bookmark orange box in the top lh corner of the toolbar has gone missing.
    So how do I now bookmark a website for future use?
    Second how do I display my list of bookmarks?
    Replies in language a 70 year old will understand please.

    Firefox 29 and later versions have the Australis interface that looks different than the user interface in Firefox 28 and older versions.
    *With the Australis interface the orange Firefox menu button has been replaced by the three bar Firefox Menu button at the far right end of the Navigation Toolbar<br>A consequence of this new menu button is that you no longer can hide the Navigation Toolbar
    *There is a star like button to the right end of the search bar on the Navigation Toolbar to bookmark the current web page and a "Show your bookmarks" button next to it to open the Bookmarks in a drop down menu.<br>You can find "Show All Bookmarks" to open the Bookmarks Manager (Library) at the bottom of this drop-down list
    *It is still possible to have the menu bar visible via the right-click context menu on the toolbars to have menus like the Bookmarks menu
    * Click the bookmark star on the Navigation Toolbar once to bookmark the current site (this will highlight the star) to bookmark the current page in the Unsorted folder
    * Click the blue highlighted star to open the "Edit This Bookmark" pop-up dialog and move the bookmark to another folder
    In current Firefox releases the "Bookmark This Page" menu entry in the Bookmarks menu changes to "Edit This Bookmark" once you have bookmarked the page and the star on the Navigation Toolbar is highlighted blue.<br />
    So do not get confused by the missing "Bookmark This Page" in the Bookmarks menu and seeing "Edit This Bookmark" instead if you try to bookmarks a page that is already bookmarked.<br />
    You can make a extra copy of a bookmark by dragging the link to a folder in the bookmarks sidebar or by doing a copy and paste in the Bookmarks Manager (Library).
    You can look at the Classic Theme Restorer extension to restore some functionality that was lost with the arrival of the Australis style in Firefox 29.
    *Classic Theme Restorer: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/
    *You can check the settings of the CTR extension via its Options/Preferences button on the "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" page.
    *You can find extra toolbar buttons in the Customize palette (3-bar Firefox menu button > Customize)

  • How to reinstall Firefox without old bookmarks?

    I was using Firefox on both Windows and Mac, and keeping the bookmarks synchronized using Xmarks. Then, as most people know, Xmarks stopped working. I continued using Windows as my main computer, so my bookmarks there are the most up-to-date, and I've backed them up in an HTML file.
    Now I want to stop using Windows and switch to the Mac completely. To get the most up-to-date bookmarks, I uninstalled Firefox in the Mac and then reinstalled v15 so I could put in the up-to-date bookmarks. I've tried this a few times now, but every time I do, it pulls in all the old bookmarks. How can I prevent this, so I can get a naked Firefox and then add the latest bookmarks (the HTML file from Windows)?
    I've tried resetting Firefox to its default, but it still keeps my old bookmarks and add-ons. I even found instructions somewhere to open Firefox in safe mode, but then I couldn't find the next command that I was supposed to use.

    You can use a JSON backup from the Windows computer to restore (replace) all the bookmarks on the Mac computer.

    A reset doesn't work because in cases like this that automatically imports the bookmarks among other data from the previous default profile.

  • Time machine - on a new Mac, how can I find my old files?

    My iMac had to give way to the new baby, so I got myself an older MacBook Pro to replace it. I used the Migration Assistant to port all my music, photos etc. over, but the hard disk was smaller so had to forgo some bigger files - like my iMovie library.
    As a regular Time Machine/Capsule user, I figured getting a hold of everything would be feasible.
    However, now on the MacBook Pro, I can't connect to my old Time Machine volume for the iMac, and can't access any of the stuff I didn't port over. I'm certain the iMovie library is there, but I can't see past "Today" in Time Machine. Any help on how I can access my old files will be most appreciated.
