How do I find the directory where my bookmarks are kept using windows explorer?

Neither firefox nor internet explorer work anymore on my administrator account, but internet explorer works on my guest account. Perhaps a virus caused this. But windows explorer works fine. Computer is so fouled up I want to just buy a new one, better and cheaper than fixing the old one.
I need to locate my firefox bookmarks and need to know how to transfer them into the new computer.

How do you open the DVD tray on a K430 without using Windows Explorer?

How do you open the DVD tray on a K430 without using Windows Explorer? I can't find a button on or below the door. Am I missing something? Additionally, will the K430 boot from a DVD/CD if it finds one in the DVD tray instead of the hard disk? Please help. Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

hi penguin247,
Regarding your questions:
1. Can you try to press the eject symbol on the DVD bay and observe if the DVD tray comes out.
Link to picture
2. By default, the HDD is set as the first boot device and the ODD second on the K430. You will need to change the boot order or continuously tap F12 during POST to boot from the ODD (assuming you have a bootable media inserted).

I want to import my bookmarks from my old hard drive to my new computer. Old hard drive is in new computer as secondary drive, can't run firefox from it. Would like to find the file where my bookmarks are stored

have looked in the old hard drive for the file where my favorites would be stored. the only file that I can find is not the latest. I did not back up my favorites on the old computer.

Bookmarks are no longer stored in an html file. Instead, they are stored in a file called '''places.sqlite''' in your '''Profile''' folder.
# Locate the '''places.sqlite''' file in your old hard drive.
# Copy it into the '''Profile''' folder of your new hard drive.
# Note that since you would be overwriting the places.sqlite in your new drive, your current bookmarks/history etc would be overwritten by the ones in the old drive.

iPods (except for iPod touch) are not linked to any iTunes "account." They are associated with your iTunes library. The account in iTunes is your Apple ID, and that is used to buy and download content from the iTunes Store. It is not required to use an iPod.
The 1st (and 2nd) gen shuffle can only be used with one iTunes library at a time. When you connect it, iTunes should prompt you to start using it with your iTunes library, and warn that the shuffle's existing content will be erased. Have iTunes erase the shuffle, and it will be associated with your iTunes library going forward. You can then add content to your shuffle.
The need for the previous owner's Apple ID and password should only come up if you are trying to transfer existing content from the shuffle to your iTunes library, AND the previous owner had content purchased from the iTunes Store. Just cancel out of that step, if iTunes asks.

How do you regulate the number of emails that are kept on your phone before they are deleted?

HOW DO YOU CHANGE THE NUMBER OF EMAILS THAT ARE KEPT ON YOUR PHONE BEFORE YOU DELETE THEM?

Your carrier sets this by time, not the number of "rings" since different ring tones take different times/ring. The typical setting is 30 seconds, sometimes up to 40 seconds. Contact your carrier to shorten it.

How do you locate the file where iPhoto library is kept? I moved iPhoto library from hard drive to external dedicated photo drive.

I am trying to restore some elements of my iPhoto library using time machine.
Apple instructions call for locating the file where iPhoto library is kept, and tells you where it is on your hard drive. But I've recently moved my iPhoto library to a dedicated external hard drive, and copied my i photo library there. when i click on it, all the photos are there, but it's an iPhoto library, not a file.
When I go into time machine and click on the date i would like to enter, most of my apps have a circle with a line through it, unaccessible. So: a related question, how would i retrieve a photo file from time machine's previous backup? thank you.

Thank you!
I am trying to retrieve photo uploads from my Android phone. When I last updated my OS, most of these vaporized, leaving only thumbnails. I have had two lengthy sessions with Apple phone support, but still haven't solved the problem.
Apparently I can't go back to July '14 iPhoto in time machine and browse files; i have to copy the entire library.
Which I just did, taking 2 hours.
In order to open the iPhoto library from July '14, I had to first update iPhoto.
When I went into the files, the same problem existed -- photo files gone, only thumbnails there. So now I'm thinking that it's the update that was the problem. This scares me to death, because when we're asked to update, we don't get a menu of preferences to make sure something has been unchecked, like the copy option i had enabled when opening photo files from my phone, which i store in a dropbox folder.
No one at Apple could tell me why this happened, so I have no idea how to prevent it from happening in the future.
That's why I'm trying to create better backups...but i can't figure out deja vu, because it won't open and sync the iPhoto library folder -- it wants me to find the file, and i don't know where it is on the external dedicated photo drive.
I realize this is about six issues, not one. But I'm really appreciative of any help i can get!

How do I find the path to a TestStand sequence file using LabVIEW

My LabVIEW application launches a bunch of teststand sequences, provided it has the complete path to each of them. I want to make it more flexible by providing it just the name of the TestStand sequence so that it will go and find the path to the sequence by searching a directory structure. TestStand has a neat FindFile() function that can do this, but I need to do this from within LabVIEW. Is there a way to do it?

There are a few ways to do this depending on how you are getting the sequence files. If you are calling the GetSequenceFileEx method, you can just pass the GetSeqFile_FindFile (0x20) flag in the SequenceFileFlags property. If you are using the ApplicationMgr.OpenSequenceFile method, this is automatically done for you.
If you want to use the FindFile function in general, you can use the Engine.FindFile method.

How do I find the summary page on ITunes. Have new Windows 8 and have to change to manually manage music

I have downloaded audiobooks from the library using Overdrive for years. I have a new computer with Windows 8 and now it's been difficult. I have a book ready to transfer to ITunes to download to my Ipod but in order to transfer it a message came up saying go to the summary page in ITunes and check Manually Mange Music. I can't find the summary page anywhere on itUNES

The Summary screen is what you see in the main part of the iTunes window, when you select the iPod in iTunes.
To select the iPod in iTunes when the iTunes sidebar is NOT visible, there is a "device button" near the upper right corner of the iTunes window. If your iPod is the only connected device, it should say "iPod." Click it to select your iPod in iTunes.
If the iTunes sidebar IS visible (along left side of window), the iPod appears in the sidebar, under DEVICES. Click it there to select it.
When the iPod is selected, there is a row of buttons that starts with Summary. Summary should be the initially displayed screen. That setting (a checkbox) is actually Manually manage music and videos for an iPod touch.

Changing Domain Administrator Password : How can I find out what all servers / services are currently using this?

Good morning all,
I took over as IT director for the school district in my town about 2 years ago, and we've had some techs come and go, all of which have had the domain administrator password (not my call, but my fault for not changing it by now). I am about to change
it, but before doing so I want to know how I can make sure what all this will break so I can quickly change the cached/saved password on whatever supporting services use this user/pass.
Can anyone help here?
Thank you!

Hello,
In my point of view if I were in this situation I would Change the domain administrator password. By
Resetting the domain administrators all the services which use domain administrator as their logon user, will lose their functionality. I had this experience and I did change the domain administrator password with no problem. However do not
forget to have a account lockout tool or script for locating the place where the account was locked out.
But to keep it short most of the time. lockout problems are arise from mapped drives, credential manager and saved RDP sessions and etc.
Regards.
