How do I install my cookies, passwords & permissions from my old PC onto my new one running Firefox 4.0.1

I am migrating from my old XP PC to a new Windows 7 PC running Firefox 4.0.1.
I have managed (I think) to copy my cookies, passwords & permissions (i.e. cookies.sqlite, key3.db, etc) via an external HDD to the new PC and copied them into the Firefox profile on the new PC.
However when I launch a cookie dependent site,the cookie data does not appear.
How can I copy the data in successfully?
Many thanks

Easiest I've found and used is MozBackup: http://mozbackup.jasnapaka.com/download.php
Download it, make a backup of your 4.0.1 then email the resulting .pcv file to yourself and save it to an easy to find spot, usually the desktop. Install MozBackup on the new computer, restore using the .pcv file you emailed to yourself.

  • How do I move my adobe cloud subscription from my old computer to my new one?

    How do I move my adobe cloud subscription from my old computer to my new one? I know I am allowed to have it on two computers but I would like to keep my second install for future use instead of having it stay on my old failing computer and go to waist. If I just uninstall it from my old computer will the cloud know it has been uninstalled freeing up my addtional use.

    Hi Kathleen_K_photo,
    Before uninstalling the creative cloud apps the deactivation is required. To deactivate the subscription you can launch any product ( photoshop, dreamweaver etc)
    go to help menu and you will find the option deactivate. This will deactivate the whole subscription and you don't need to do it for all the products.
    After deactivating the subscription you can uninstall the products one by one.
    You can then go to the new machine and login to www.creative.adobe.com, login and then start downloading the products.
    Thanks

    Are you sure of that?  Check in the Library.  Click on the Apps icon to see all apps.  Similarly click on the Music icon to see the songs.

  • How can i copy programs, like photoshop, excel, from an old macbook to my new one?

    HOw can I copy programs like photoshop, excel, ...., from my old macbook to my new one?

    Setup Assistent.
    When you first start the new Mac one of the first question will be do you wish to restore from another Mac. If the other Mac is on the network you can use Setup Assistent to migrate everything over from the old Mac to the new Mac.

  • How do you transfer itunes(including apps etc) from an old laptop to a new one

    how do you transfer your old itunes from an old laptop to a new one including apps music etc

    Hi,
    Apps should be there on your new PC, if you have your apps synced with the Apple ID you are currently using, and if you type in your Apple ID details on the iTunes Store in the iTunes application, they should be there. Music, you could always transfer via a USB memory stick. Again, music downloaded with your Apple ID should be there.
    Hope I wasn't too confusing!

  • I just bought a new ipod shuffle, how can i transfer music from my old ipod onto the new one

    How do I transfer from my old ipod to my new ipod

    You can't transfer it directly.  If the old iPod is set to sync to your iTunes library on the computer, everything on the iPod is in your iTunes library.  Just set up the shuffle to sync from your iTunes library as desired.
    If the old iPod is set to Manually manage music, AND there are songs on the iPod that are not in your current iTunes library, please post back.

  • I can't figure out how to move my bookmarks and other settings from my old computer to my new one.

    I recently bought a new HP 64 bit laptop. I am interested in transferring my Firefox profile from my old Dell computer to my new HP. The help instructions are clear about how you backup the prifile but if you copy the old file profile(C:\Documents and Settings\jgruetz\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles) into the new computer's C- Drive Firefox does not recognize the transferred file. In fact it hangs up and I had to uninstall and reinstall Firefox. The profile file name on the old computer is (sv0cbzeb.default) the file path on the new computer is (C:\Users\jgruetz\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\4w9161mx.default. I have tried everything I know to no avail. Help.

    Copy the entire '''~\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\''' folder to the new PC. You need the '''profiles.ini''' file in addition to the \Profiles\ folder. The '''profiles.ini''' file is like the "gatekeeper" or "index" for the Profiles. If the exact Profile name isn't in that file, Firefox won't use that Profile - it doesn't "exist" as far as Firefox knows.

    Resetting User Password in Lion and Mountain Lion
    Boot into your Recovery Partition by holding down the Command and R keys whilst booting.
    When the Recovery screen appears, go to the Utilities menu and open Terminal.
    In Terminal, type:
    resetpassword
    ...a small app will open and allow you to choose the user for whom you want to change the password. If you are the admin, be certain that you choose your admin user. Type in your new password twice and give yourself a good hint. Click OK (or Done or whatever) and reboot, enjoying the use of your new, hopefully memorable, password.
    Good luck,

  • Is there a way of installing/transferring previously bought apps from an old account onto a new account?

    Hi,
    On my iPhone I started with an old apple ID and downloaded numerous amounts of free and paid apps over the period of using it. Since then I have now created a new ID, the old apps remain on my device but obviously they are not owned by myself anymore. Is there any service whereby I can install all the old existing apps into my new ID (obviously paying for any that cost), without having to go through each app manually and installing separately?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi TheUsualJack,
    Even though you have created a new ID, you still own the apps under the old one (unless it was actually someone else's). To answer your question, no - there is no way to install all of the old exisiting apps under your new ID without doing each one indivdually.
    However, you can download them to your iTunes library and then sync them back to your phone. First, I would suggest that you log on to your old ID under Manage your Apple ID, and change the password on your old ID to match the new ID. That way, when one of them needs to be updated, it won't matter which ID is asking for a password, becuase you would put in the same one either way.
    Then:
    1.     Sign onto your iTunes on your computer with your old ID and make sure the ID is authorized to your iTunes Library (Store (on the Menu bar)>Authorize This Computer.
    2.     Then click on the iTunes Store (in the sidebar), and click on App Store.
    3.     Under Quick Links, click on Purchased, iPhone, Not in My Library.
    4.     You will see a little cloud next to each app that is not currently in your library. You can click on the individual cloud, or you can scroll to the bottom to "Download All".
    5.     Once you have downloaded them, you can then hook up your iPhone, and go to the Device Profile Screen for Apps, and select which ones you want on your device.
    Once you have done that, you will be able to upgrade them as needed by supplying the common password that you are sharing between both IDs.
    Hope this helps!
    Cheers,

  • How do i get all my apps and music from my old laptop onto my new one?

    Could someone help me please? My laptop died i am unable to turn it on or anything.So i have brought a new laptop, i have installed i-tunes and authorised my laptop but none of my apps or other purchases have appeared in it. Can some please tell me how i can get all my apps,music and other stuff i had onto the i-tunes on my new laptop?

    You can use your backup to populate the iTunes library on your new computer. If you havn't bothered maintaining a backup then apps can be re-downloaded from the app store for free (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519), but media (music/films/tv shows) can only be downloaded once from iTunes (which is one reason why you are advised to make a backup). Purchases made on the iPhone can be transferred off it via File > Transfer Purchases. It's possible, if you do a search on google, that you might find utilities that can help you copy the contents of your iPhone.
    You will also find a search box on the right hand side of this window where you can search for similar threads to yours, and which might have more info in them.
