How will my .json and .html backed up bookmarks import?

Firefox 3.6.28
OS 10.4.11
Ibook G4
Hi,
I back up regularly both as .json and as .html. With the .json back up, I remove the date each time I back up so there's an over-write and there's only one .json back up file in my Backup Folder.
I've never had to import bookmarks back into Firefox, but I've had a crash that's wiped out my Firefox bookmarks in the Firefox program where I kept the bookmarks in a very carefully indexed system of categories and menus that dropped down from the toolbar.
When I import .json or .html back into Firefox, will my menubars re-set to the way I had them? I remember from a long time ago using Safari, I restored backed up favorites, and what I got was a long list of titled links which wasn't anything like the way I'd set the favorites up in the first place. I hope I don't get the restoration like that this time with Firefox. In addition, when I press 'Import' from the file menu, I'm only given the option of importing from Safari. That's not what I want to do. I have "Backups" in a designated folder in my Documents in the Finder and that's where I need to pull them from.
There's something about "Profile" regarding Firefox that I've not known about that may have been something I needed to do in relation to Bookmarks.
I would appreciate any help you could provide to help me my bookmarks back in place.
Thanks,
Rafael
PS Regarding "Troubleshooting Information".
I had to do it manually because the function doesn't support my veersion of Firefox.
"# A new window will open. Click on a button called Copy text to clipboard."
Did That
"# Paste the info in the text box below."
Did That
* Click on the empty box above this text.
I don't see an "empty box above this text." The box above isn't empty. It contains my question.
So the following don't make sense because I already Pasted below.
* Look at the top of your screen, and click the menu item called Edit.
* A small box will open. Click on the item called Paste. Alternatively, type Ctrl+V or Command+V.
* Some text will appear in the empty box.

Create a desktop shortcut with -P "profile" appended to the target to launch Firefox with each profile.<br />
Then you can set in the profile manager which profile to use by default if you click a link in an external program.

Use the -no-remote command line switch to open another Firefox instance with its own profile and to run different Firefox instances simultaneously, but do not use -no-remote with the default browser and the default profile.

    Good luck at the Genius bar.
    I have figured out that if I do a hard restart of the phone the apps will work for a time, but then they begin to all freeze up again after a short time.
    This may be a problem of not enough free storage. Have you checked the storage used by your apps?

    If you moved them to your iPad then they will have been removed from your Mac.  If they are no longer in the iPad's Videos app following the update then you will need to try contacting iTunes support and see if they will let you re-download them : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

  • Will uninstalling Mavericks and reverting back to Lion restore iMovie to 9.0.0?

    I’m someone who regularly uses iMovie to edit videos for YouTube, and given that my iMovie 9.0.4 recently decided to go bonkers beyond repair, I can no longer use it, for it’s no longer on my Mac.
    In short, iMovie 10 is an utter disgrace, and I want iMovie 9 back. Now, in order for me to get iMovie 9 back, will uninstalling Mavericks and reverting back to Lion (a better OS in my opinion anyway) return iMovie to its former glory? My Mac didn’t come with a disc, so how would this work?
    Thanks for any help can may be provided!

    You should still have iMovie9 in a folder after Mavericks upgrade.  It did not delete it.  Check your applications.

    There is nothing wrong with your Dell, it will work fine with any MacbookPro. I have been using Dell displays for over 12 years with many different Mac models. I have two 21" Ultra Sharp displays working side by side to design a Keynote presentation right now.
    The issue your having is with the way Keynote  takes control of the video output to both displays, it sends the presentation signal to one and the presenter display to the other, this is set up in;
    Keynote preferences > Presenter display.
    If you want to show a wesite or another app on  either display,  use application switcher:
    press the the  command key on the keyboard, then the tab key; a row of applications will show what applications are running, choose which one you want to show. Use command  > tab to return to Keynote.

    Hi,
    From the Control Panel, open Administrative Tools and select Sevices.  Browse down to the print spooler service, right click it and select Properties then click on the Stop button.  Now browse to C:\Windows\System32\Spool\PRINTERS and delete the job inside this folder - You may need to click a prompt to gain the appropriate authority to open the PRINTERS folder.
    Restart the computer and you should find the job has been removed.

  • My battery life decreased dramatically after updating to ios 6.1.2.  How do I delete and go back to previous iso?

    I have iphone 5; my battery life decreased dramatically after updating to ios 6.1.2.  How do I delete and go back to previous iso?

    Downgrading the iOS isn't supported and wouldn't help even if you could.   There have been reports of decreased battery life after every update since iOS 1.0.1. 
    There are lots of things that can be done including reinstalling push email accounts. basic phone reset (pressing both home and power buttons for at least 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears), and restoring the phone with and without a backup.

  • Termination Workbench how will it work and factors.

    Hi,
    Termination Workbench how will it work and what are the factors need to consider at the time of implementation.
    Regards,
    BusinessSuite.

    Hi,
    When we are implementing the Termination Workbench we have to consider the following activies.
    Purpose
    This component helps in terminating an employee from the payroll.
    The Termination Workbench computes the various types of payments due to, or payable by the employee at the time of termination. For example, Gratuity, Superannuation, Leave Encashment or any pending Reimbursable allowances.
    The termination of employment may be due to the:
    Resignation of an employee
    Retirement of an employee
    Voluntary retirement or premature retirement by an employee
    Integration
    1.Contract Elements info type (0016) u2013 Where you maintain the details of the employment contract, between the company and the employee. Termination Workbench determines the notice period for termination using this info type.
    2.Date Specifications info type (0041) u2013 Where you maintain the date of Normal Retirement of the employee. Termination Workbench computes the relief on Voluntary Retirement Service benefit for the employee using the data maintained in this info type.
    3.Personal IDs info type (0185) u2013 Termination Workbench obtains the Gratuity and Superannuation Trust details for the employee from the info type.
    4.Additional Payments info type (0015) u2013 After the transaction is complete, Termination Workbench updates the payment records in the Additional Payments info type (0015). The updated amounts are disbursed to the employee through the payroll run, along with other components of the salary.
    5.Actions info type (0000) u2013 When an employee is terminated using the Termination Workbench, the Termination Workbench delimits the employee in the Actions info type (0000).
    Features
    The Termination Workbench comprises of the following processes:
    Termination transaction (PC00_M40_TERM)- Using this transaction you can specify the details of employee Gratuity, Superannuation, Leave Encashment, Voluntary Retirement Services and Reimbursable Allowances.
    The transaction reads the relevant info types and determines the amounts payable to the employee. For example, amounts payable as Gratuity, Superannuation, Notice Pay and Leave Encashment. You can modify these amounts using the transaction. When you execute the transaction, it updates the relevant wage types in the Additional Payments info type (0015). This transaction also creates a batch session for delimiting the info type records.
    Batch Input monitoring transaction (SM35) u2013 Using this transaction, you can execute the batch session created by the Termination transaction (PC00_M40_TERM). Upon execution, the batch session delimits the info types configured for delimiting, in the info group.
    The batch session also delimits the employee in the Actions info type (0000). You can set the Return Action Type for Termination Workbench feature (40TRM) for the Action Type to be defaulted in Actions info type (0000) when the info type record gets delimited.
    Payroll u2013 when you execute the payroll for the period in which the employee was terminated, the payroll processes the amounts payable at the time of termination. For example, Notice Pay, Gratuity, Superannuation and Leave Encashment. The payroll also calculates the applicable exemptions.
    Warm Regards,
    Devi.,

    My two old white MacBooks run perfect with Snow leopard, but my 2011 17" i7 Macbook Pro is a dead slug with yosimite installed.
    Tried the start with C held down, also with option held down.  All it does is beeps at me three times, then again three times..... 
    I want to remove yosimite and install Snow leopard from dvd as yosimite runs worse than a Windows OS.
    Can it be done, what do I need to do please?
    Examples of faults,  even with a 1tb solid state drive and 16 gig of ram, it is incredibly slow.  Took four hours to install Logic 8 last night, I still have to reinstall logic 9 upgrade.   On the White MacBooks I got both 8 and 9 installed in under an hour and a half all up.
    Beeping on startup means failed RAM.
    Slowness is usually caused by incompatible third-party system modifications.

  • DE -saster.  How can I reverse and go back to acrobat on a mac?

    I have no time for this nonsense. $100 book that I could read passibly on acrobat, and I foolishly clic on the download the new edition "yes" teaser. Now I'm stuck in this Digital Edition and can't get back. No thumbnails where there used to be, and slow page changes. Page numbers no longer correlate to the page numbers in teh book, so searching for things is painfully difficult. Text is blurry.
    There should have been a warning... i only intended to upgrade to reader 8.1, not get imprisoned in this not ready for prime time thing. I've got to get this book back NOW.
    I'm using a mac with 10.4.10. Please advise how to de install DE and get back to acrobat with my expensive (and hopeless) e book. I'll never do this again. Strictly paper and ink from now on.

    i'm on windows and had the same really bad experience as you.
    i simply deinstalled DE and reader 8, then reinstalled reader 8 again and seemed to be fine.
    you should try that also, hopefully it works and things get back to normal.i don't think something happened to your ebook file, just that DE seems to be a very down graded version of adobe reader.
    i was also unsatisfied with the poor quality of the text, images plus not to mention i also finished writing and producing an ebook myself and all my interactive buttons and links stopped working in DE.

  • How to uninstall PSE7 and revert back to PSE5 organizer prior to PSE8 install

    I have a Vista 64-bit system and currently have PSE5 abd PSE7 installed.  When I installed PSE7, I converted the PSE5 Organizer catalogs, but decided I didn't care for some aspects of PSE7 and reverted back to using PSE5.  So, the PSE5 catalogs are current and the PSE7 catalogs aren't up to date.  I now want to install PSE8 but want to be sure that it "grabs" and converts the Organizer catalogs from PSE5, not the out-of-date PSE7 catalogs.  Can anyone tell me the best way to attempt this?  Should I uninstall PSE7 and then install PSE8 so there will only be the up-to-date PSE5 catalogs available for converting to PSE8?  I'm not even sure where Vista puts the catalogs.  Everything seems to be different with a 64-bit system.  Any assistance would be appreciated.

    You can find the PSE7 catalog file at the following location in Vista:
    C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Elements Organizer\Catalogs\
    There would a file having extension of .pse7db which you can delete to avoid PSE 8 grabbing it.
    Let us know if you still have any queries,
    Cheers,

  • How will SAP BW and HANA merge/melt over time?

    Though SAP swears HANA would not replace BW but there are good reasons to believe the in-memory analytics platform(HANA) will eventually absorb BW. So, I think it is more accurate to say that SAP BW and HANA are begin to merge.
    Any expert in this, can throw some light and educate us if it's so and how?
    Thank you.

    There are plenty discussion on this topic, but I'll recognize the information might be pretty scattered over very specific ones. Here is my POV in a few bullets:
    BW disappearing as a separate box doesn't necessarily mean BW disappearing as a modeling paradigm. In S4, where most operational reporting and analytics are performed on the fly on top of the transactional data, several scenarios are implemented as BW artifacts on top of Virtual Info Providers.
    In the long run, you'll have the option to have fully managed modeling (BW LSA++ modeling paradigm) and the fully open SQL based modeling paradigm (based on HANA catalog artifacts & Information views). Both are interchangeable and you could have one single reporting model going through different objects of both modeling paradigms.
    There will still be cases where you might need a consolidated centralized DW (e.g. consolidating data from several different sources). In such cases, you won't need to physically replicate data from any HANA source, you will simply virtualize the data from the other HANA Boxes (SDA).
    With HANA SPS09 and even more with SPS10+, there will be native DW features in HANA that will help more and more the construction of the native HANA DW scenario. BW will also leverage those features. Look for HANA Data Warehousing Foundation, which include several services such as DDO and DLM.
