I am trying to move my bookmarks to a new computer and the procedure on the website just doesn't work, everything looks right but when I open Firefox on the new computer the bookmarks aren't there, just the defaults.

The old computer is running Windows XP, the new one Windows 7. I copied the profile folder onto a USB jump drive and moved it to the new computer. When I paste the old profiles on the new computer profiles folder, all dates change to the current date and time but as I said when I restart Firefox and click on bookmarks I get nothing but the original defaults.

You need to copy the '''contents''' of the old Profile folder into the new Profile folder. Firefox won't recognize the name of that old Profile in the new installation.

  • I have an iphone 4s.  I have a mac computer and a pc.  Most of my itunes library is on my pc, but when I try to add music to my phone from my library on the pc, it won't let me do it.  I CAN add music from my library that is on my mac, same account.

    I have an iphone 4s.  I have a mac computer and a pc.  Most of my itunes library is on my pc, but when I try to add music to my phone from my library on the pc, it won't let me do it.  I CAN add music from my library that is on my mac, same account.  My husband has the same problem with his iphone 4, but only uses pc.

    My husband and I are using the same iTunes account on all mac & pc computers, but the libraries are different on each machine.  We always manually manage our music (no auto sync).  iTunes is up to date on the PCs.  My husband uses our joint iTunes account on his pc, but once again, has a different collection in his library from those on the other machines.  He can't load any music from his PC to his iphone 4.  I can load music from my mac library to my iphone 4s, but cannot load from my pc library to my iphone 4s.  How can I switch my main library that it syncs with from the mac to the pc?
    Thanks

  • I am in Muse 2014.3. When I edit a page, in the preview everything looks fine, but when I upload it to FTP, the page does not change, even when I upload the whole site. Is this a bug? I don't know what to do.

    Hi Jaap,
    Are you sure about your FTP credentials (FTP folder and site URL) that you are using for the upload? Are you able to see the updated files in the remote directory of the FTP server, after you finish uploading the muse file, using an external FTP client like FileZilla?
    Thanks

    Go into Settings>Messages>Send and Receive and make sure that your phone number is checked and iMessage reads as activated. Remove the checkmark from the email address and make sure that only the phone number if checked. It should appear grayed out, but should still have a checkmark. If the phone number does not have a checkmark, then turn off iMessage, wait a few moments and then turn iMessage back on and make sure that it activates.

  • I was having issues with firefox so I upgraded to firefox 4. I am connected to the internet but when I open firefox or even internet explorer it says Unable to connect problem loading page. Nothing will pull up!!! No help link or anything!!?

    I was having issues with firefox so I upgraded to firefox 4. I am connected to the internet but when I open firefox or even internet explorer it says Unable to connect problem loading page. Nothing will pull up!!!

    I don't know if you are still having the issue but if you are have you contacted your ISP? It sounds to me like it's more of a connectivity issue than a browser problem. I've dealt with similar things several times and in both cases it was something with the modem or an ISP setting.
    I'm also wondering if it could be a Wi-Fi issue. Can you log in to your router? (It varies by brand but you would go to a site such as http://192.168.10.1. That is for Trendnet. The information for yours should be in the documentation that came with it.)
    You should be able to get the router log in page to come up even if you can't connect to any websites. (Provided the network is set up correctly.)
    I also would double check your connection settings (if you're connecting over Wi-Fi) or your ethernet connection. (If you're connected directly to the modem and router.)
    Hopefully one of these suggestions will be helpful.

  • When I open Firefox, 8 tabs automatically appear. How do I make just the homepage tab appear on startup?

    When I open Firefox for the first time, 8 tabs always appear. Not only the homepage tab but 7 other tabs (mainly from add-ons I have installed). How do I make just the homepage tab appear on start-up?

    Hi,
    Please try removing the homepage entries in '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Options''' > '''General''' > '''Home Page:'''. For some add-ons, you may have to go into their settings.

  • I installed teh update a few days ago but when I open Firefox it says :"You're not on the lastest version . . ", but at "Help" & "About Firefox" it shows 9.0.1 "latest release". There's a glitch somewhere.

    This is the message when I Open Firefox:
    "You're not on the latest version of Firefox. Upgrade today to get the best of the Web!"
    At <Help> & <About Firefox>, it shows
    Firefox
    9.0.1
    "Firefox is up to date"
    "You are currently on the release update Channel"
    One of those messages must be wrong. Either way Firefox seems to work fine otherwise. Thanks and regards, Peter Spielman

    Is your homepage set to www.google.com/firefox? If so, that page is wrong. You should change your home page to about:home or some other site instead. The google.com/firefox page is no longer supported.

  • Since I have installed iOS 6.1.3 on my iPhone 5 I have sometimes problems to start a phone call. Everything looks fine, but no ring tone... A workaround is to stop phone app in the multitasking bar. But this is more than inconvenient ;-) Any solution?

    In this cases everything looks fine, but no ring tone is there and after sometimes the phone informs me that no connection can be estabilished (its a German phone, therefore I am not sure about the message in English systems). A workaround is to stop the telephone app in the multitasking bar (double click on home button, hold the app symbol pressed for some seconds, close app). Next several call work after this.
    I am not sure if an incomming call would work in this mode...
    Faces anybody the same problems or has solution for it?

  • Brand new iPad. I cannot find my files. I know that they were loaded but when I open "audiobooks" it takes me to the iTunes store. How do I find my own audiobooks?

    Where do my files go after I have synced them to my iPad. I watched them transfer from my computer to my iPad but where are they now? For instance, I am trying to find my audiobooks but when I click audiobooks, it takes me to the iTunes store for audiobooks but I cannot find my books there either.

    They should have downloaded into the Videos app (iTunes on the iPad is just the iTunes store) :
    If they aren't in there then have you got a film age rating set in Settings > General > Restrictions that is hiding them ?

    Does this only happen on specific pages?
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • When my computer starts up and I open Firefox, Firefox closes automatically for no apparent reason. But when I open Firefox again, it's perfectly fine.

    This only happens when I startup up my computer and open Firefox immediately. The browser would stay open for a couple of seconds and then it would close unexpectedly. Once I open Firefox once again, it seems to be perfectly fine and stays open. It doesn't give me any crash report as to any reason my browser closes unexpectedly previously. Can anyone help?

    Perform the suggestions mentioned in this article -> [[Firefox Crashes]]
    Check and tell if its working.

  • I lost the normal windows bar on the bottom of my page when I have firefox open. No, it is not just hiding and I have to pull it up, I have tried that. I still have it on my desktop, but when I open firefox, it disappears

    when firefox is open with anything like yahoo, facebook ect, myh bottom start window disappears. I have tried pulling it up from bottom of screen ect, it just isn't there. How do I get it back

    Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: command+Shift+F).<br />
    If you are in full screen mode then hover the mouse to the top to make the Navigation Toolbar and Tab bar appear.<br />
    You can click the Maximize button at the top right to leave full screen mode or right click empty space on a toolbar and use "Exit Full Screen Mode" or press F11.<br />

  • I am trying to get a document from my cloud and on my Mac it says I need an updated version of numbers but when I go to mac app stores it does not allow me to download the new version which I use on my ipad?

    I am trying to access a numbers document in mycloud and it keeps saying I need a newer version. I purchased the upgraded app for my ipad and now I can't seem to upgrade my computer so that I can get access. I went to the app store but it won't let me download the newer version onto my computer? What is the point of putting things in the cloud if I can't access them?

    Numbers documents from iOS need Numbers 3.2 on a Mac to open. And Numbers 3.2 requires Mavericks. If you are using Mavericks you can get Numbers 3.2 from the Mac App Store. It will be free IF you have Numbers 2 (iWork '09) installed. Otherwise you must buy it.
    Your other option is to send the Numbers file as an Excel file via e-mail to yourself to open with an earlier version of Numbers.

  • When I open firefox, a pop up window asks "do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer? How can I get rid of this pop-up window ?

    Every time I open the browser, a pop-up window asks "Do you want the following program to make changes to this computer?"
    It is unnecessary and annoying to have to click "yes" each time.
    How can I get this pop-up window to stop?

    Thanks for the help I'll keep the info just in case - but I got so frustrated that I just deleted the program and then re downloaded the current version now everything works fine.
