    You could have been storing your Favorites using the Windows Favorites folder (displayed in Internet Explorer using the Favorites menu or button), or you might have been storing your Favorites using the Yahoo! toolbar.
    For IE Favorites, Firefox tries to import them to the Bookmarks menu. This is available on the classic menu bar or if you have the compact two-column menu, from the orange Firefox button or a button on the toolbar. These articles might help in tracking down these imported Favorites:
    * [[How to use bookmarks to save and organize your favorite websites]]
    * [[Import Bookmarks from Internet Explorer]]
    For Yahoo Favorites, you might need to use the Yahoo! toolbar for Firefox to access those. Do you already have that displayed? You can turn on/off the display of toolbars using one of these methods:
    * right-click a blank area of the tab bar (or the new tab "+" button)
    * tap the Alt key > View menu > Toolbars

  • I have an Iphone 5 and I'm abroad at the moment. My iMessages keep being sent from my phone number even though I took out my SIM card. My question is, will I be charged for them because they are being sent from my phone number and not my email?

    This might be a stupid question but I'm quite concerned that my phone bill will be sky high because of it.

    Hi mlemonache,
    Here's a blip from the IOS Message support site:
    On iPhone, if iMessage is unavailable, the message may be sent as SMS or MMS, depending on content. Carrier messaging rates may apply. You can adjust this behavior in iPhone at Settings > Messages > Send As SMS. Messages sent using iMessage appear in a light blue bubble, while messages sent using SMS or MMS appear in a green bubble.
    Here is a link to the site:

  • How do I get iMessage on my Mac and iPad Mini to send from my phone number instead of email?

    How do I get iMessage on my Mac and iPad Mini to send from my phone number instead of email? I've signed out and signed backed in on all devices but it still doesn't work. Phone number shows up on my iPhone only. Apple support article does not help, the screen don't even match mine.

    Hi believer924,
    Happy Holidays!  What version of Mac OS are you working with?  The article below will explain how to confirm your phone number is linked to your Apple ID for iMessage.  On your Mac, you should be able to remove the checkmark in front of your email address in the "You can be reached by iMessage at" and "Start New Conversations from" sections of iMessage settings.
    iOS and OS X: Link your phone number and Apple ID for use with FaceTime and iMessage - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201349
    Your iPhone telephone number is linked to your Apple ID when you sign in to FaceTime or iMessage. This allows you to use your iPhone number with FaceTime and iMessage on other iOS devices.
    This feature isn't available on iPod touch (3rd generation) and iPad (1st generation).
    This feature is available with OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.2 or later.
    On OS X, find out which addresses are enabled:
    In Messages, choose Messages > Preferences > Accounts. Select iMessage in the left column. Your contact preferences should appear under "You can be reached for messages at:."
    OS X:
    Phone number missing on OS X
    If your phone number isn't listed on your Mac, follow these steps:
    Update to the latest version of OS X on your Mac.
    Verify that you're using the same Apple ID that you're using on your iPhone.
    Sign out of your Apple ID at these locations on your Mac:
    Messages > Preferences > Accounts tab. Click iMessage in the left column, then click Sign Out.
    FaceTime > Preferences. Select your Apple ID, then click Sign Out.
    Close FaceTime and Messages on your Mac.
    Open FaceTime and Messages, then sign in to your Apple ID in Preferences.
    If your phone number still isn't listed on your Mac, follow these steps:
    Sign out of your Apple ID on all iOS devices, including your iPhone, in the following locations:
    Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Settings > FaceTime. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Sign out of your Apple ID on your Mac at the following locations:
    Messages > Preferences > Accounts tab. Click iMessage in the left column, then click Sign Out.
    FaceTime > Preferences. Select your Apple ID, then click Sign Out.
    Close FaceTime and Messages on your Mac.
    Sign in to your Apple ID on your iPhone.
    When activation is complete, your Apple ID and all verified email addresses should be visible in Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and also in Settings > FaceTime.
    Open FaceTime and iMessage, then sign in to your Apple ID in Preferences.

  • How do i get imessage on my mac book pro

    how do i get imessage on my mac book pro

    Open Messages. It will prompt you to enter your Apple ID. That's for iMessage. Any messages send via a iPhone's or Mac's Messages app (not the Mail app) to that Apple ID will be iMessages. If you have an iPhone you can also add that Apple ID to your phone so any iMessages send via your phone number will also be in your MacBook Pro.
