How do I save or backup Firefox benchmarks and other settings?

I will be upgrading my computer from Windows XP to Windows 7. I need to backup or save my Firefox internet benchmarks, passwords and other setting to a flash drive so that they can be reloaded to Windows 7. How best to go about doing this?

I suggest also saving a copy of your entire user folder under
c:\Documents and Settings\''username''\
(But you can empty your Temp files and IE cache first; you won't need those.)
I should note that it's a huge amount of data because it also contains the My Documents folder, but it's a good backup backup.

  • How do you setup for your multi cores and other settings?

    since the preferences doesnt really give us a option does that mean that FCPX just "knows" how good your computer is and what you want to devote (memory wise, etc) to it?

    I have the same problem - beach balls and temporary freezing, on 2 Mac Pros (8 Core, 32GB RAM, HD5870 card). All the while CPU and other resources are not maxed out; this is on 10.6.8. there seems to be 'some' bugs - for some people - that in fact make FCPS quite slow (and slowing hte system down as well) all the while there is no bottleneck in hardware....  

  • How can I save my current Firefox customization to install on a new Windows 7 installation

    This is not asking for a problem fix.
    How can I save my current Firefox 3.6 customization, toolbar set-up, plug-ins, add-ons, etc. to a file or files so I can install it, pre-customized, after I do a re-format and clean install of a new Windows 7 operating system?
    I am currently in Windows Vista.
    I'm just trying to make it so I don't have to re-customize everything I already have done by doing a fresh installation of Firefox.
    Or can I just save the existing Mozilla Firefox program folder and then drag and drop it into the new programs folder in Windows 7?
    Thanks,
    numetro

    A couple of links that can help with this, [[Backing up your information]] and [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_backup Profile backup - MozillaZine Knowledge Base]. The second one includes a link to a free utility that can make this easier.
    Just saving the progams folder will not work, the user data is stored elsewhere.

    How i can download my backup data? And how to manage the data on i Cloud?

    You can't download an iCloud backup, except to restore it to your device should you ever need to.
    iCloud data can be managed within the apps on your iPad.  Any changes to the data within the apps corresponding to the data you are syncing with iCloud will take place in iCloud.  You can also manage some of this data on icloud.com from your computer.
    This article explains ways to manage your iCloud storage space, should you need to reduce you iCloud storage: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4847.

  • How to create a toolbar on firefox 4 and above?

    Hi,
    How to create a toolbar on firefox 4 and above?
    I am new to add on development, Please tell me How to create a persistent panel(should display below toolbar), which should contain a button, textfield and a combo box and is available to new tabs/windows.
    Regards,
    dinesh

    There's a link on the main support.mozilla.org page under "Customizing Firefox", to this article: [[How do I customize the toolbars?]] in case it helps you or anyone else finding this topic. It has a section on adding a new toolbar to Firefox.
    I can't help you on creating your own button, textfield and a combo box for the new toolbar but I see you (Dinesh) asked this question on Jan 5, here:

  • How do you save changes made in iPhoto, and export the changed file.  It keeps reverting back to the original.

    How do you save changes made in iPhote, and export the changed picture file? When I select export, current format, it reverts to the original, wiping out all my work.

    Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder.
    (On 10.7 or later: Hold the option (or alt) key while clicking on the Go menu in Finder to access the User Library)
    (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    What's the plist file?
    For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

  • How do I transfer my MacBook Air to my wife so she can sync her iTunes account and other settings with her iPad Mini?

    How do I transfer my MacBook Air to my wife so she can sync her iTunes account and other settings with her iPad Mini?

    You can change the account shortname to whatever you wish to use.
    As you can see from my example above. Once you click on the Create User button a new account will be created.
    She will need to get her own Apple ID setup so when she starts with iTunes she can open her own iTunes account unless you both want to share the use of the same Apple ID. This can create a bit of confusion if you have your own iPads or iPhones or iPods. As you have discovered it's pretty much one iDevice with one Apple ID.
    As for the iTunes library that becomes a more complicated issue.

  • For iTunes Match, how come some songs "match" on an album and other songs on the same album "upload" without matching?

    For iTunes Match, how come some songs "match" on an album and other songs on the same album "upload" without matching?  All songs are available on iTunes.  I don't get it!  Any way to manually match songs that iTunes apparently can't match?  I have hundreds in this unmatched state.

    Shazam has NO problem determining what these songs are. Maybe Apple needs to consider licensing their technology as it seems MUCH more accurate than what they are doing.
    You aren't comparing like with like.
    The main task that Shazam has is to identify the name or a track and the artist. I believe that it suggests the album as well, but if it gets that wrong then it doesn't really matter too much.
    With iTunes Match, getting the album (i.e. identifying which version it is) is much more important. If it gets that wrong then it breaks up the flow of an album. This makes the task that match has very much harder.
    In fact, there is a strong argument to say that currently the problem iTunes has is that it is matching too many songs, resulting in matches from different albums.
    I'm sure that match is not struggling to identify whether it has a song or not, but whether it has the correct version of a song. When you introduce different masterings into the process then, depending on the thresholds set, it is probably correct in concluding that it hasn't got a particular version, even if you think it has.
    The solution would appear to me to be a tweaking of the matching thresholds along with the ability to force an upload, but we just don't know what restrictions they have (remember that if Shazam gets it wrong the it doesn't present you with a copy of a new track that you didn't have previously). It is almost certainly not just a case of improving their technology.

  • I'm about to upgrade to Lion on my Mac soon and would like to make a backup of all my bookmarks, passwords and other settings in firefox to be able to make a clean install of the new OS, how do I do that?

    Well, Ihave a lot of passwords for different sites that Firefox keep track of so that I don't have to remember them all when I need to log in on these webpages. Also I have a lot of bookmarks. How do I make a backup of all of this data so that I can make a clean install of the new Lion, install Firefox 5 and then use this backup to return Firefox to the same level as before? Also, I want to be able to have a backup file of all this in case of a crash. Is this possible, and if not maybe a function for the future?

    My Mac HD software got damaged and I have to do a complete system reinstall.
