I have already got Firefox Home sync'd on my iphone from my old PC, but my old PC has been whiped. Now I want to set up my sync account on my new pc and retain all the bookmarks from my account. How do I do this?

Right, first I had a PC then sync'd my bookmarks to my iphone...Now my PC has died. I have a new PC and wish to sync my bookmarks back to my new PC.. But I cant seem to do this because the sync process on my new pc asks me to 'add a new device' which I dont want to do... So I click 'I dont have the device with me' and even then I can't get a sync key because there is no way to find it on the iphone app. I have looked back through my emails to see if I was ever sent one by email, but I can't find it.
SO basicly it looks like I am going to loose all my bookmarks that I want to transfer onto my new pc. Unless I manualy add in the bookmarks from my phone onto the new PC on firefox and create a new sync account?

I'm having a similar problem, but I do have the key and is not working anyway.
My old pc was running on windows 7 and my new one is an apple running on Lion.
My phone is an Iphone IV and I can see all the bookmarks there.
In order to sync, what I did was click on the "I don't have the device with me", I entered the key that was provided and the process finish ok. It says congratulations, etc, etc.
But the bookmarks are not there, I tried merging data and replacing data on this computer options but is the same.
Any suggestions?

You might consider itunes match for moving CDs you've copied into your itunes library if you dont have a way to use home sharing.
iTunes match is an optional service offered by apple that costs about $25 a year. It scans your music library and if it finds music that is already in apple's itunes catalog it'll automatically "unlock"/"store" these in the cloud for you. Items that it does not find in the catalog it'll upload and store these in the cloud for you and you can download them on your devices. See http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/

What do you mean by "won't play"?
Try deleting the song and downloading it again from the iTunes Store.

Is it a new drive or do you already have data on it ? If it is a new one, you might just want to format it with the Disk Utility else try to check the partition with the disk utility, your partition could be damaged.

Did the original songs that do not appear on the car player play in the Music app on the iPod? Sometimes glitches happen and they do not. Also, If y ohave a 5G iPod/iOS 7, purchase songs will show with an cloud icon by them if they are not downloaded if Shall All is turned on in Settings>iTunes and App Store

Placing a PDF with hyperlinks/buttons into InDesign and retaining all the link/buttons after reprece

I got a PDF file that has multiple links/buttons and I'm placing into an InDesign CS2 document with other items and then exporting out as another PDF for a digital edition magazine. I want to retain all the links/button once I export?

James,
I doubt that will work. But it should be easy enough to find out. If you
print to pdf from ID, I guarantee is will not work. If you export from
ID, I doubt it will work, but ask in the ID forum, since the creation
does not depend upon Acrobat.

You can not merge accounts.
Apps are tied to the Apple ID used to download them, you can not transfer them.

I disabled Sync history with IE , yet every time i look at my history in Firefox it shows all the IE places i visited , how do i stop this , so i can go to only my Firefox history , but still have IE and Firefox synced

I use Firefox and Google Chrome for forums because they are faster than IE as IE(7) tends to hang a lot , so i have all my Favorites and everything synced with Firefox , as this is my main browser , but i do still use IE7 for some browsing , u went to Settings and unchecked the History , in the Sync section , but when i go to Firefox to view a forum topic i was looking at , recently , if i had gone to IE and visited any sites , then they show up in my history (for example Craigslist , i will look at several adds , and ALL of them are in my Firefox History) and push my Firefox history off the list so i have to go back to my favorites and start over , instead of being able to use my Firefox ONLY history so i can just go to those pages
Is there anyway to fix/bypass this but still have Cookies and Favorites and such synced ?? , without the IE History knocking all my Firefox history off the list ??
It's just annoying to have to go back from the beginning and search the topic i was in on a forum, because it was bumped off the list by any browsing i did in IE7, in between time
Another issues since i am posting:
I also have "Check Places" and it does not bring all the Favorites i have added in my IE Favorites over , the ones i did when i first installed it transferred , but any additional ones i have added to IE will not transfer , is there something wrong with Check Places ?? does it only transfer your Favorites 1 time , and not check for additions to the list then add them accordingly ???

Only when i go to a different browser (like IE) after i clear it , then all that shows up is the pages i visited in IE , that is what bugs me , why is IE browsing history sowing up in Firefox ??
Basically , i can clear the history in Firefox , and then for a example , go to Craigslist , using IE7 (launching it from a complete different Icon , in other words at that time i never open Firefox) , then after closing out , or even leaving open as it does not seem to matter , i go into Firefox , and hit History , and there is every place i visited in IE7 , on my History in Firefox

Transfer iphoto photos and videos from one mac to another and retain all the titles and face names

Can I transfer an event of multiple photos that are in my iPhoto application on my macbook air (mid 2012) to my iPhoto application on my iMac ( mid 2011), and have the photos, after the transfer to the iMac, also retain all titles and other identifying data that had been added while on the macbook air? Using 10.9.5 OSX on both. Using iPhoto 9.5.1 on both. I did try this: drag and drop this event to a new folder on the desktop of the macbook air, the using Airdrop, drop copy of this event folder into the iMac. After the iMac displayed this file as completed received into the iMac, I then opened iPhoto to import this folder into iPhoto. The photos were imported, but without any identifying info, only the usual tag, such as IMG_4368. (Incidentally, the event of photos on the macbook air includes photos and videos taken on an iPhone 5c, and photos and videos taken on a nikon D3100. The photos that I transferred using Airdrop did show the camera meta data when Iclicked on the "info" button in iPhoto on the iMac) (Why did I do this in the first place? - While on a trip, I knew I would need to off-load photos and videos form my low capacity iPhone to the portable macbook air in order to free up space on the iPhone, and thought it would be easy enough to transfer to the high capacity iMac later.) Thanks for any input. Signed: No longer quite so "new-to-apple", but always trying to learn

Moving photos from old iMac to memory stick
     Open Photos in iPhoto
     Select All photos (which happens to be 2193 at the moment in my case)
     Drag Photos on to the Memory Stick icon
That is not moving an iPhoto Library. It will not retain Faces, Titles and lots of other metadata. That's moving the Previews (only) from one Library to a thumb drive and then importing them to another Library.
To move a Library:
To move an iPhoto Library to a new machine:
Link the two Macs together: there are several ways to do this: Wireless Network,Firewire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet, or even just copy the Library to an external HD and then on to the new machine...
But however you do choose to link the two machines...
Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
Then launch iPhoto. That's it.
This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.
I'll ask the same question that I posed
above - can you do this for Mail and iTunes?
Most certainly not. You need to ask on those forums for the correct way to move those databases.

Ever since the last update I don't have my old bookmarks, can't add new ones and can't import my HTML file. How do I fix this?

ever since the last firefox update I don't have my old bookmarks, can't add new ones and can't add my HTML file of my bookmarks

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Bookmarks_history_and_toolbar_buttons_not_working_-_Firefox

I open a new tab, and click on the bookmark in the bookmark toolbar, and the web site opens in a side bar. I want it to open in the full tabbed window.

I love Firefox, but this problem is frustrating me. I want to go to a favorite site and have bookmarked it. When I click on that bookmark, the site opens in a sidebar! How do I make it open in the full tab window?

You can edit the properties of that bookmark to fix this.
If you right-click it and choose Properties, you will check a checkbox toward the bottom of the dialog that opens the bookmark in the sidebar. Uncheck that and click Save.
Does it work?
(When you use a link on a website to store a bookmark, they get added this way. You can use Ctrl+d or the "star" in the location bar to add the bookmark without having it open in the sidebar.)
