How do I purge bookmarks and install saved HTML file

I would like to purge my bookmarks and install from a save HTML file off another computer.

You can delete the places.sqlite file to reset all current bookmarks.<br />
If you remove all JSON backups in the bookmarkbackups folder and place this file as bookmarks.html in the Firefox profile folder then Firefox will automatically rebuild the bookmarks from this file.
You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:

How can I merge bookmarks and saved passwords from two computers onto one computer?

Before I got rid of my old computer, I backed up my profile folder on a thumb drive. Then, I got a new computer and started customizing firefox, adding bookmarks and new saved passwords, without ever uploading my passwords and bookmarks from my old computer 's profile. How can I add the bookmarks from my old computer's profile folder onto my new computer's new firefox profile?

That is about saving your current bookmarks to an HTML file because you would lose those when you restore a JSON backup from the backup.

It's either in local folders, as it seem you had been doing, or in icloud. If you go into the mac's Pages and view the icloud files, you can drag on onto another to create a folder. But you can only have folder one level deep, so you can't organize your files/folders like you can on a mac, using nested folder several levels deep.

Using Firefox 3.6.20 and Windows XP Home SP3. Firefox sporatically deletes bookmarks from the bookmarks toolbar. Additionally, when I try to import from a saved HTML file, Firefox does not import the complete file. Results are inconsistent.

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

How can I access photos and videos saved to the iCloud?

How can I access photos and videos saved to the iCloud? I backed up my iphone to the Cloud but now the files are nowhere to be found.
I had to reset all content and settings in order to troubleshoot an issue. Before I did this, I backed up the iphone to icloud. When I reprogrammed the phone, I had to set it up as a new device and individually sync apps and other items from itunes. But by doing this, I somehow lost some videos and can't seem to find where they would have been saved/backed up. Can anyone offer any guidance?

You can't view photos and videos on icloud (except for shared photo stream pics). iCloud merely sync photos between devices using the stream. If you don't have photo stream turned on, then the only place photos in the camera roll are located are in a backup. You would have to restore from the backup. But be warned that many users have ended up losing their photos when performing a restore, for whatever reason.
What you should do in the future is always sync photos/videos to a computer for storage, don't leave them on a device or trust icloud to somehow store them.

How do I re-download and install Acrobat 11 Standard - after I wiped my system installing Win 8?

How do I re-download and install Acrobat 11 Standard - after I wiped my system installing Win 8?

There is no trial version for Acrobat XI Standard. What Leonard suggested would work for Pro however.
If you purchased Acrobat via a download from Adobe, you can re-download by going to the "My Orders" page on Adobe's web site (https://www.adobe.com/account/account-orders.html). You would also find you serial number there. If this does not work, you can download the software from here: Download Acrobat products | Standard, Pro | XI, X - if you've registered your software, you can lookup your serial number here: https://www.adobe.com/account/my-products-services.html#MyProductsHeader

Are bookmarks and favorites saved in iCloud?

AAre bookmarks and favorites saved in iCloud?

It depends on what you mean by "saved" and for what purpose.
If you backup your iPad to iCloud, your backup contains this information if you ever restore the iPad and re-load the backup (along the lines what bobseufert mentions). So if your intent is to safeguard your Bookmarks and Favorites, then yes iCloud will do that but only if you're backing up to iCloud.
If your iCloud settings have "Safari" turned ON, then your Bookmarks and Favorites will be shared among all other devices that use the same iCloud account, and have this feature enabled. So if your intent is to sync and share Bookmarks and Favorites with other devices, iCloud will do that too, but only if you're using the Safari feature of iCloud.

How do you purge/compress/shrink the iPhoto11 folder/file size?

How do you purge/compress/shrink the iPhoto11 folder/file size?
I have been using iPhoto since iLife'05 and have always upgraded with each iteration of iLife. Without exception, I had just recently upgraded to iPhoto'11 when iLife'11 came out. Because I have used iPhoto to store all my photos and videos taken over the last 5 years or so, my iPhoto folder/file has become bigger and bigger over time and so I moved it to an external hard-drive. My main iPhoto'11 folder/file has 14,367 photos, 995 videos and is indicated to be 83 GB by iPhoto'11. But "Get Info" in Finder reports a whopping 130 GB.
I started to think that this is getting a little crazy and I had wanted to better manage my photo collection, so I decided to "divide and conquer" this gigantic iPhoto'11 folder/file into several smaller, more manageable sized ones. So I made a duplicate copy of this gigantic iPhoto'11 folder/file onto another external hard-drive, fire-up iPhoto'11 again to delete away almost 80% of the photos and 90% of the videos. Now, my "slimmed-down" iPhoto folder/file has 3,000 photos, 75 videos and is indicated to be 6.8 GB by iPhoto'11. But despite the new "slimmed-down" status, the "Get Info" in Finder reports a still very huge 44 GB. Where did all those bulk come from? I have emptied both the iPhoto'11 Trash Can and Mac OS X Trash Can and these steps did not seemed to change anything at all.
Therefore, I wanted to see what the "Get Info" in Finder will report if I were to delete 99.99% of the photos and video to leave just one (1) photo in iPhoto'11? Guess what is the result? My "One Photo experimental" iPhoto folder/file has 1 photo, 0 videos and is indicated to be 2 MB by iPhoto'11 yet the "Get Info" in Finder reports a mysterious 36.3 GB. There must be something hiding inside!
Help! What can I do?

I went on to try trashing away some of the folders and files inside and found that I could actually do it quite neatly if I go by the year which the photos are taken. After a lot of trial and error working on duplicate copy of my iPhoto '11 library, I am able to do away with all the clutter within the library and still open it normally.
Now my 44GB obese iPhoto'11 library has been slimmed down to just a little over 7 GB (5 GB as reported by iPhoto'11) and I am just comfortable dealing with 2 GB of "don't-know-what-info" of clutter within the library.
Remember my "One Photo Experimental" iPhoto'11 library that was 36.3 GB? I managed to bring it down to the realistic 22 MB size. This size is still double that of a brand new iPhoto'11 library I created to import 1 photo. However, it sure beat having 36.3 GB of clutter.
So, now what I am gonna do is to "divide and conquer" the duplicate copies of my iPhoto'11 library into smaller sized ones according to their year. But I think I'll still keep the original bloated, gigantic 130 GB intact and continue to feed it with photos and videos until maybe it becomes 1 TB! Yikes!
Anyway, million thanks for your tip and I really appreciate it! Have a Happy holidays!

My computer crashed and I saved my files onto my flashdrive. I can't open SWM files.

HP Mini 110-3700ca PC
So my computer crashed and I saved my files onto my flashdrive. The back up files are compressed into SWM files and I can't open them. I tried dowloading p7zip and extracting the files and the files remained the same. Maybe I didn't do it correctly. I'm running out of ideas. I'm trying to recover a few DOC and RTF files that was saved in the hard drive before the crash.
Thanks

Inside the folder of files you should see a file with .exe extension, either Recovery.exe or Backup.exe.Double click it to extract the files to a folder on your laptop.
You will have to enable the option to see file extensions for known file types.Do that in Control Panel,Folder Options.

The best audience for applets is people off the internet. 'People off the internet' might be using a computer that has no (what was it?) 'open.html' in the root of the C: drive. In fact (shock horror) they may not even be running Windows, and would therefore probably have no 'C:' drive at all.
If you do not intend to distribute this to people off the web, an application makes a lot more sense, but even then, you cannot rely on the document being there unless you 'put it there' (during installation, for instance).
As the other poster intimated, applets can load documents off the local disk as long as they are trusted. Here is an example*, but note that it is not so rash as to presume any particular path or file, and instead leaves it to the user to choose the document to display.
* The short code can be seen at SDNShare on the [Defensive Loading of Trusted Applets|http://sdnshare.sun.com/view.jsp?id=2315] post.
On the other hand, a sandboxed applet can load any document coming from its own server via URL, or get showDocument(URL) to work. In that case, the JRE must recognize that the URL is from its own server, so the best way to form URLs for applet use is via the URL constructor
new URL(getDocumentBase(), "path/to/open.html");That is how I form the URL in this [ sandboxed example of formatting source|http://pscode.org/fmt/sbx.html?url=/jh%2FHelpSetter.java&col=2&fnt=2&tab=2&ln=0]. Of course, in this case the applet loads the document, then parses the text to draw the formatted version, but the point is that an URL produced this way will work with showDocument(URL).
I am pretty sure showDocument() in an applet off the internet will work with an URL pointing to a foreign (not its own) server, but it will not be able to load documents off the end user's local disks.
I suggest a couple of things.
- Try to express this problem in terms of what feature it is that you want to offer the end user. Your question jumps directly to a bad strategy for achieving ..who knows what? An example of a feature is "Shows the applet 'help' files on pressing F1".
- A good way to indicate interest in a solution is to offer [Duke stars|http://wikis.sun.com/display/SunForums/Duke+Stars+Program+Overview] to match that interest.
Edit 1:
..and please figure out how to use the CODE tags.

Drag and drop of html-files into Firefox 3.0.1 no longer works after going from XP to Win7

I use firefox portable 3.0.1 on an external disk.
Used to have a portable PC with XP SP2, now have a new Windows7 Professional machine.
On the XP machine I was able to open Firefox from the USB disk and drag&drop html-files into its window to open them. Suddenly on Windows7 this no longer works?? Any ideas/fixes?
Note: I do have to start the portable Firefox in XP SP2 compatibility mode, after which it seems to work fine (apart from this issue thus far)
A lot of configuration went in this Firefox portable install, so it would be nice to get this to work with a quick fix instead of having to start from scratch with a newer version.
