How do I save all my e-mail folders on my own hard drive? (or keep copies)

Firefox has been putting my older e-mails in TRASH without me asking; so I want to save all my incoming e-mail ON MY HARD DRIVE locally, as backup.
Is this possible?
IGNORE ALL THIS - it is YAHOO!Mail I need to deal with. My Mistake - SORRY !

hello, firefox is just a web-browser - it doesn't handle your emails at all. are you referring to the mozilla thunderbird mail-client or to a webmail provider? in the latter case please contact the support of your mail provider when you're having issues, since firefox has no way of influencing that...

    Hello ryane84
    The easiest and most efficient way to copy your music is to follow the steps under the External drive section. Make sure that you have organized the iTunes library first before you copy it over. Then put the copied iTunes folder in the same Music folder on your computer.

    How do I save my purchased music from Itunes to a external hard drive so I dont lose it?

    Right-click(Windows) or control-click(Mac) any item in the iTunes library other than a rented movie, reveal it in the Windows Explorer or Finder, and navigate up the folder hierarchy.

  • How do I transfer all my Firefox saved passwords to my new hard drive and operating system? Going from xp to windows 7.

    How do I transfer all my Firefox saved passwords to my new hard drive and operating system? Going from xp to windows 7. I have the old hard drive hooked up as drive f. Can I copy and paste from old drive directory to new drive directory?

    You need to copy 2 files, key3.db and signons.sqlite, from the old [[profiles|profile folder]] to the profile folder on the new computer.

  • My computer is full and I need to save all my shows and movies on an external hard drive.   I am on a mac book pro and I can't figure out how to drag the show in to the external hard drive

    My computer is full and I need to remove movies and tv shows out of itunes and save them in an external hard drive.   I cant figure out how to save them so I will be able to access them again.  Or store them in the cloud

    Do not store them in the Cloud.  It isn't really storage.  For iTunes purchases, for example, it is just re-downloading a purchase.  If a label decides to no longer make the item available it will disap[pear from the cloud and that will be it for you.
    You can't store items on an external drive simply by dragging them there.  That's too complicated for iTunes and how it is set up to work.  I know I post on this 10x a week and there's many other posts discussing this.  I suggest you browse a bit first.  Your options are basically to either put your whole library on the eternal drive (which is a nuisance if you don't want to drag it everywhere with you), or to copy individual items to the external drive, delete them from the internal drive, then re-add them as new items (re-adding to playlists, etc.).

  • How do I move all my iphoto picture files to an external hard drive and then remove iphoto '11 from my computer?

    I would like to remove iphoto '11 from my computer completely because it is causing too many issues.  I would like to ensure that my picture files are safe and stored in an external hard drive.  How do I copy the picture files to an external hard drive without taking the iphoto application files with them? Also, do I need to keep the originals, modified, and masters files of each picture?

    My iphoto has been unresponsive, and I am unable to do anything once I launch the application.
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
    As to migrating to Aperture: It will import the iPhoto Library and maintain the relationships between Masters and Previews/ Originals and Modified versions.
    There is no way to recreate those relationships in any other app.

  • I just had to get a new hard drive for my mac book pro and I have the old one saved onto a hard drive, how do I get all my saved info back onto the new hard drive?

    Are you recovering Lion or later Time Machine backup with a Lion or later machine?
    If you are, then use this article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718
    Other Time Machine restore options are here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1427
    Note, if recovering from a PowerPC Mac (iMac G5, PowerMac, Mac Mini G4, iBook, Powerbook), this tip is important:

    Otherwise use the recommended restore option with whatever backup software you used initially.

  • How do I restore all of my data to a newly installed hard drive from my time machine backup?  Thanks

    I had to replace my hard drive, I am new to restoring the data from the time machine.  Is there anywhere that the steps are clearly articulated as I am not that versed in this kind of stuff?  Thanks for responding.

    Here it is: http://www.apple.com/au/osx/recovery/
    As far as I'm concerned, the ONLY way to do this is to connect your macbook to your time capsule via Ethernet and restart it holding down the COMMAND-R keys.
    This will take you to a restore prompt which will boot from your time capsule. The restore will then be a complete and up to date version of your old hard disk.
    Don't even bother with older boot disks. I wished I got this advice from the many enquiries I made over two days! Restore took 2.5 hours.
    Only found out about command R by a random google search late at night. So anybody replacing their hard drive and restoring from a time machine backup - do this!

  • How do i save all my mail in my inbox and sent box?

    hello
    i am going to upgrade my OSX to Snow Leopard
    how do i save all my mail in my inbox and sent box then restore it when my new OSX is installed?
    thanks in advance
    tk

    It's always good to have a backup, but Snow Leopard should leave all your data intact, just install new OS components & updated Apple Apps.
    If you don't have room to back everything up...
    On Mail...
    First Quit Mail, then I'd backup these two Mail folders, by right clicking on them in the Finder, then choose Archive/Compress.
    Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail
    Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail Downloads
    (Could be a different folder here if you chose such in Mail Prefs)
    Right click on that Mail folder, choose archive, you'll get everything in the folder, and the folder itself in a file called Mail.zip, move it to a safe place, same for the Mail Downloads folder... only the plist is separate.
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
    For Address Book, quit AB...
    Files...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.AddressBook.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.AddressBook.abd.plist
    Folders...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/com.apple.AddressBook/
    If you do have room to back everything up...
    Get carbon copy cloner to make an exact copy of your old HD to the New one...

    I updated the phone before backing it up on iTunes, now the update wanted me to connect the phone with iTunes and it says the phones in recovery mode and it must be restored before its used with iTunes. I go to click restore and it says it will reset it to factory default and I'll lose all my current data. I have all my sons pictures and videos along with this notes. I can't lose all of this data! Please help!

    You have to restore the iPod, no ifs, ands, or buts...
    After iOS is installed you will be asked if you what to set it up as a new iPod or if you want to restore from a backup.
    If you have a good backup you can restore that and you're good to go.
    If you don't have a good backup, then you end up with a "clean" iPod....
