I imported bookmarks, when I openfolder, not there, help

I went through the steps as directed, and got a dialog box that said they were imported. When i click on the bookmarks button I get a folder titled from internet explorer. When I put the cursor over the folder it opens another box with one of my favorites on first line and the name of my computer on the next. The favorite opens, when I put my cursor over the line for my computer it says empty.

If there are problems with importing the IE Favorites in Firefox then export the favorites in IE to an HTML file and import that file in the Firefox Bookmarks Manager.
If you do not have the menu bar in IE then right-click the toolbar at the top to enable the Menu Bar.
*Export the favorites in IE to an HTML file (bookmarks.html):<br>File > Import and Export
*Import the HTML file in Firefox:<br>Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Import Bookmarks from HTML

IPhoto thinks it is importing photos when it is not. Help?

On my laptop, iPhoto thinks that it is importing photos when there isn't any devices plugged in. It will not let me quit due to this and I also cannot restart my computer, run software updates, etc. Any suggestions would be great. thank you!

Use the Force Quit command, under the Apple Menu

If you were not there, how would you see the led?
Anyway missed calls will appear on your Lock screen under the Missed tab.
Or a small red numbered badge will appear on the Phone App icon when you have missed calls. You can then access the Recents Tab in the Phone App to see whcih calls were missed.
Missed Calls are shown in red there

Some contacts have disappeared from my phone contacts. They are still in the phone because if someone calls me their name appears and if i search in text for contacts they are still there - but if i search in phone contacts they are not there, Help

Some contacts have disappeared from my phone. Not all just random ones. They are still in the phone because if someone (who has disappeared from my phone contacts calls me their name appears and if i search in text messages for contacts they are still there - but if i search in phone contacts they are not there, Help!

But once again, I do not want to lose my other texts, app progress, and photos. I could sync the photos but i would still lose the app progress and texts. I would only restore if it was the only option left, but the other space, as already stated, isnt the main concern. The main concern is those 'deleted' texts. If they go, then a good size chunk of the other space goes. I know you CAN delete texts for good. It worked fine before. All i want to know is why its not working for me now, and how to fix it.
I also know that when you delete texts on your iphone, they get marked for deletion, however they stay on your device (thats why they show up when you search for them.) then when you sync your device with itunes, the texts marked for deletion should disappear. When i synced they didnt disappear. Thats what i need an explanation/solution for. Why the texts marked for deletion didnt get fully deleted after the sync.

Importing bookmarks in FF32 does not work. I have tried swapping places which has worked before, I have tried import in the bookmarks menu.

This is a windows 8 computer that was RESET yesterday that I am attempting to set up again.
I have copies of the bookmarks on another drive (and actually on another windows 8 computer running FF27) - I can not move the bookmarks onto this reset computer.
I have not attempted to move the whole profile yet just places and also tried export /import bookmarks.
I have just reinstalled FF32 and have the same problem. Yesterday I was successful in moving "places" onto the windows 8 computer with FF27.

somehow it is now working - it wasn't a few minutes ago but I do have bookmarks now and can add them
I tried lots of the suggestions - "You can try to delete the prefs.js file and the compatibility.ini file to force Firefox to reinitialize the profile." - tried it but it alone wasn't enough
I also installed Java during this process - it was probably needed and might be automatic to a techie but I am a mathematician not a computer person. I know I had installed java in the last few days but it wasn't visible in a search for the word java so I downloaded it again.
I took bookmarks back up file, places.sqlite, and bookmarks off the working Win 8 machine and tried to move them into the right spots in the folders - didn't work at first
I discovered the date on the working Win 8 machine was a day off and so when I opened a backup bookmark that was old enough with all the other changes I had made it finally worked.
I see now where the bookmarking star has moved - I liked the star in the location bar. I normally just use history. I also do not like the tabs on the top and other toolbars hidden away and change some of those on install. I will change these two Win 8 to my liking over this week but all of those changes were not urgent.
I have relinquished control of that Reset PC back to its "owner" until the next disaster. I know I have one program left to install (no rush I was told) and a handful of files to straighten out still but this last thing is status quo around here.
Thank you for all the ideas.
There is also System # 4 - Windows 7 with FF31 which is my main computer - System #2 exists as it was bought for me but I have not used it. I hate Windows 8 and hate the idea of moving all my files onto it. But there are enough problems on this CPU that if I gave it away as a hand me down I would spend too much time trying to fix it for my spouse so they got a brand new PC instead to replace XP. When I gave them the XP they got it "clean" with a new install of XP on a just cleaned HD.

Lost all my important bookmarks when I upgraded to Firefox 4. I want the old Firefox AND my bookmarks back!!!

I just upgraded to Firefox 4 and in the process lost all my important bookmarks. Not acceptable!! How do I get the old version of Firefox back including ALL my old bookmarks?

This can be caused by a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

to remove credit card details when none option not there

If "none" is not an option, your latest order is unpaid at the moment (due to payment issues). You can check your purchase history to find out, if it's so. Please follow:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2727?viewlocale=en_US
If the latest order is unpaid, you have to choose another valid payment method like another credit card or you can redeem an iTunes Gift Card (if supported in your country). After the order is paid, you can choose "none".

My pull down window at the top to get to sites i vist is not there help

my pull down window where sites i vist where you type in www .where ever .com that window is not there how do i get it back?

You might be in full screen mode. Try pressing the F11 function key, or slide your mouse all the way to the top of the screen and right-click.
If you are in normal view but the address bar is missing, right-click a blank area of the tab bar and enable the Navigation Toolbar.
Any luck?

I have a problem with bookmarks, all the time when I start Firefox the bookmarks is deleted, or not there. And I need to import them again and again, also the cookies, cash are deleted.

The bookmarks, cookies, history all the time are deleted when I start Firefox and I need to import them all the time.
I have version 3.6.12

This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Trying to import bookmarks from Safari. According to help it says open file and click on import. When I open file there is no import. So how do I import my bookmarks from Safari ?

I'm on a Mac with 10.7.2 I'm trying to import my bookmarks from Safari to FireFox. When I open the "file" to click on import like the instructions say there is no "import" in file. So how do I import my Safari bookmarks to FireFox ?

I don't have that activated either.. :-s

Firefox 3.6.3 will allow me to import bookmarks, however it will not allow me to export bookmarks, I click on export html, and it does nothing but close the dropdown menu

have been trying to export my bookmarks from firefox. am running a new installation of kubuntu 10.04.. I can import any and all I've tried. I'm using firefox synch, but the only bookmarks I can import from firefox are the defaults... nothing I've imported is available to import to my other browser, Konqueror.

hi,
in firefox 4.x; you click on firfox in the upper left corner, which is presumably similar to 3.x. Then go to bookmarks, in the upper right corner of open tab. this will then open another tab...DO NOT GO ANY FURTHER....just left click on bookmarks. This will open a window where you will see "import and backup" once you highlight that area, a dropdown with "export to html"......will be there.

The "Import Bookmarks" won't work if there's no backup dates... What to do?

I just swapped-out my desktop PC's, and I have lost ALL of my Firefox Bookmarks :( I have been thru all of the "Import and restore" help guides, but unfortunately any earlier restore dates are just not offered to me... only the 1 date after I did the computer swap. How can I get my old bookmarks back and onto my new PC? I'm using Windows 8.1 Thanks!

Do you still have your old computer running, or do you have the hard drive from your old PC, or do you have a copy of the hard drive, or did you use a data transfer tool to copy old data onto your new computer?

"Import" under "File" is grayed out/unselectable and I'm trying to import bookmarks from IE. Is there a work-around?

My hard drive was replaced and my Firefox bookmarks seem to have been imported into IE, but not Firefox. I would like to import them back into Firefox, but the Import function is not working (it can't be selected).

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode.
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Private+Browsing
*You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
*To see all History and Cookie settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting <b>Firefox will: Use custom settings for history</b>
* Deselect: [ ] "Permanent Private Browsing mode"

I just opened Foxfire and it automatically imported bookmarks from safari, but not all of them. How can I get the rest of them ?

I still have Safari on the computer with all my bookmarks. Not all of them came over to Firefox. How can I get them over. Also I had some in the toolbar that displayed over the window. Does this browser have that feature?

Export the bookmarks in Safari to an HTML file and import that file in Firefox.
