How do I import a bookmarks folder from another computer and add it to my existing list of bookmarks folders?

I have two computers. One contains a folder of bookmarks that I want to transfer to the other computer and add it in. I don't want to replace all my bookmarks on the second computer with those from the first computer. How do I do this?

Which kind of backup did you do? A backup from the Bookmarks Organizer or a backup using the program MozBackup?
If you used MozBackup, you need to install it on the new computer to decode the backup. http://mozbackup.jasnapaka.com/
If you used the Bookmarks Organizer, you might just need to add .json to the end of the file name.

  • How can I import an iTunes folder from another Mac?

    I realize now I could've used the Migration Assistant and it would've been a lot easier. However, all I currently have is the copied "iTunes" folder from the "Music" folder of the other Mac. Is there any way that I can import this into my current Music folder and still retain set lists, etc.?

  • How do I import a iWeb file from another computer to my computer? I have Lion and iweb version 3.0.4

    My friend has been working on a website on her iWeb on her computer and I would like to take over on mine. Does anyone know how to do this?
    thanks!

    Once you copy the Domain.sties file from your friend's computer to yours consider the following:
    In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    To open your domain file in Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
    do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
    tell application "iWeb" to activate
    You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
    Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
    WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder.  So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

  • Re:iMac remotely accessed from another computer and location?

    Can you access an iMac remotely from another computer and location if there is knowone to switch it on?

    Barbara,
    Both are legitimate concerns, I'll address each as best I can.
    As for the the power issue, well that's going to be the case with any computer. We have many choices, most of them impractical for example take your house off the grid, put in your own power source (solar or wind powered) which clearly for most of us is totally impractical. The next thing would be a backup-generator like a hospital or other mission critical facilities (police & fire houses) have. While this is more practical again it's stretching the limits again for most of us. So the next thing is a healthy battery back up system that can maintain power to a computer for several hours if necessary. While they are still expensive they are far less expensive than the first two solutions. Of course you can set the energy saver settings to power on your computer after the power comes back on if even the UPS battery goes dead. I haven't tried this remotely however I think it might work.
    Next is security, DropBox and Logmein both address this themselves so I would recommend looking into their solutions. Personally I find them trust worthy and don't have an issue. Even if you use MobileMe you would still have the same concerns, and how about Google, and all the other major players. To me Google while it's a vast resource and extremely helpful if for some reason they decided to become the Evil Empire they have far more access to your information that anything. Anytime you do a simple search they are collecting information about you. For example let's say you are looking for ATM's in a new city, they can capture your search and if they were evil enough they could track your every step. Is this far fetched and ridiculous, of course it is but it is possible. However this is the case with any Internet based computing, if you use some basic common sense for the most part your data is pretty secure. I'm much more nervous about the minimum wage clerk at Taco Bell taking my credit card information than Google, Apple, Logmein or Dropbox doing so.

  • How do i use a Time Machine from another computer from Time Capsule with multibackups

    Can Iuse a Time Machine from another computer from Time Capsule with multibackups

    Not sure what you are asking here. 
    Time Machine is software on a Mac that is used to backup that Mac to a Time Capsule hard drive.
    Are you asking if another  Mac can backup to the same Time Capsule that other Macs are already using?
    Or, if not....please clarify on exactly what you want to do.

  • How do I import gradient map settings from one computer to another?

    Quick Question,
    How do I import my gradient map settings from CS3 on my old I mac into my new Mac that uses CS6? Is there a folder somewhere that I can just copy and paste?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    1
    Start Adobe Photoshop CS3 and open an image from your files to which you want to apply a gradient map.
    2
    Select the "Image" menu, point to "Adjustments" and click on "Gradient Map" to open the "Gradient Map" dialog box.
    3
    Choose the gradient you want to use for the gradient map by clicking on the "Gradient Picker" drop-down box. Click on the gradient preset you want to use for the gradient mapping. You will see that in the background the gradient has been applied to your open image.
    4
    Click on the gradient fill that you have chosen to open the "Gradient Editor" if you want to edit the gradient preset. Make any changes in this dialog box and click the "OK" button to close the box and return to your gradient map.
    5
    Set any final options to apply to your gradient map. Check "Dither" under "Gradient Options" to add noise to smooth the bands of your gradient and/or "Reverse" to switch the direction of the gradient map.
    6
    Use the "OK" button to close the "Gradient Map" dialog box and return your image to which the gradient map is now applied.
    Is that what you were asking?
    Hope it helps.

  • How do I import Firefox user settings from old computer to new computer without using sync function?

    the motherboard on my old Mac G4 powerbook died but i have access to its hard drive contents, including the files located in Application Support>Firefox. I want to import these profile settings into my new Firefox on my new iMac 2011. Which files do I move over so that my new Firefox has the settings/bookmarks/add-ons as my old Firefox?

    Install FEBE from Add Ons in FF on old computer. Back up entire profile. Also install FEBE in FF on new computer. Copy FEBE backup folder to new computer. "Restore" from FEBE. All of your settings, including cookies, passwords, etc. will be "restored." Note that on the new computer, you'll need to create two profiles: the default one you'll use on a regular basis and one to use for the restore.

  • My imported backup html files from another computer do not show up after import

    I am currently transferring files from my macbook pro to a pc netbook. I already exported my firefox bookmarks via an external drive and accessed the html file on my new netbook. After importing the html on firefox on my new netbook, the bookmarks do not show up on my bookmark list.

    Caution: Restoring bookmarks from a backup will overwrite your current set of bookmarks with the ones in the backup file.

  • Use My Maill Folder - from another computer?

    I have an iMac G5 in a dark windowless room, wireless, and an iBook. On sunny days I'd rather work out on the back deck, and the wireless reaches. But while I can easily access and use my files, I don't know how to sue the Mail folder from the Library folder on the iMac...
    I'd like to set up an account on the iBook that retains no data or important settings, with all data and important settings on the "server"...

    I'm not sure what it really is that you want. Are you looking for a way to use the Mail data stored on the iMac from the iBook, regardless of whether that would prevent you from being able to use Mail on the iBook when the iMac isn't available? Setting up an iBook that way seems odd to me, as it would prevent you from using Mail when you're not at home...

  • How can i reset/restore my ipad from another computer thatis not the original one i used

  • Hotmail keeps telling me I've logged in from another computer and to refresh my browser

    A short time after I log in to Hotmail I get the following message - "Please refresh your browser window. When you access your Windows Live Hotmail account from more than one computer, we ask you to sign in again to help keep your account private and secure."
    The point is - I only log in from one computer. I have asked Windows Live Support, and the first thing they want is for me to 'optimise my browser'.
    I don't get this response on any other site, and I suspect it's down to Microsoft. This question does not seem to crop up in your collection of questions.
    Your help would be appreciated.
