I'm trying to import favourites from Explorer but on the File menu the Import option is not available

I found an article on importing favourites from Explorer. It said press Alt, (which I did but couldn't see anything happening) and then from the File menut, click on Import. However, the Import selection is not available.

if you are unable to see click "import" from menu tab to import bookmark from other browser, in bookmark tab ( Alt B), go to organise bookmark ( Shift+Ctrl+B), on top of the newly pop up tab, click "Import and backup" and click Import HTML, then in Import bookmark from, choose the browser you want to import the bookmark from...hope this help.

I am unable to download updates directly to iPad 2 , now trying to reinstall one from scratch but download keeps stopping and the restarting. Can you offer any advice, this happening when trying to download to laptop in itunes as well. Have tried to download on different broadband lines without success. Is this an apple problem due to high demand or something else?
Everything has worked well until about a month ago, up to date iOS 5 and itunes installed. Tried resetting numerous times, turned off all apps still no joy. Ipad was great but now feeling buying one was mistake. Also recent music purchase was useless and tunes would not play correctly.

Since this is happening on the iPad and the computer, it might be worth a try to reboot your router - unplug it from power for about 30 seconds and then plug it in again.
Quit iTunes on the PC, reboot it and the iPad as well
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons

Trying to import favorites from Explorer. When i go to the file menu in firefox, import is grayed out and I can't import the favorites

I am trying to import my Explorer favorites. When I go to the "file" menu, "import" is grayed out and I cannot use it to get to the next step.

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 Firefox will: Use custom settings for history
*Deselect: [ ] "Always use private browsing mode"

When I click on 'open a new tab' or if I select 'new tab' from the file menu a new tab does not open. It used to.

I followed the instructions to import favourites from IE but it didn't work. What did I do wrong?

All I get is a folder called "links from the united kingdom" containing three more folders which are the first second and fifth in my IE favourites list.

Incomplete importing sometimes happens (example of past thread: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/835144 Only 1/3rd of my bookmarks imported from IE. How do I move the rest?]). Could be related to the number/depth of folders, but I'm not sure whether anyone has definitely identified the cause(s).
For best results, export from IE to an intermediate file, which is in HTML format. Then import that file into Firefox. It will be a folder on the Bookmarks Menu, and you can use the Organizer/Library dialog to rearrange them the way you want them.
The following pages give the steps:
* IE: [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Import-or-export-favorites-in-Internet-Explorer Import or export favorites in Internet Explorer]
* Firefox: [[Import Bookmarks from an HTML file]]
Success?

Using "wizard" on a Mac OS X with Snow Leopard, importing bookmarks from Safari to Firefox should be seamless. Yet, when I try to select "Import..." under the File menu, the item is dimmed (unavailable) and unresponsive. Am I missing something obvious?

No more details. As indicated, the import function seems to be disabled.

I'm having difficulty visualizing what is wrong but try some basic steps first:
Launch Safari while holding a Shift key - this will start Safari with just your Home page
If you can see Reset Safari from the Safari menu, try that.
In addition to downloading and installing Safari again, try reapplying just the Snow Leopard Combo Update: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399 There is no need to uninstall Safari first.
Lastly try deleting Safari's Preferences file: ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist

I tried to import favourites from ie9 but only a few appeared.tried several times but the same result

For me, (long winded way) I drag the playlist from the bottom tree to the iPod branch.
Then select iPod.
Click the music tab on the right window.
click sync tick music
go down to the playlist section and tick the playlist.
Apply.
Good Luck.

Am trying to change security preferences to allow cut,copy and paste. Am trying to follow directions from Help but I can't find the Firefox profile directory.

I've found the Mozilla Firefox program file but don't see Profile directory there. Is Profile a separate directory, or should I just create the user.js file at the Mozilla Firefox level?

I want to import my favorites from Internet Explorer, but under the File menu, the Import item is grayed out. How do I make it available?

* Make sure that you not run Firefox in (permanent) [[Private Browsing]] mode
* In Private Browsing mode some menu items are disabled (grayed) and features like visited links are disabled and not showing
* You are in Private Browsing mode if you see "Tools > Stop Private Browsing", possibly grayed
* You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
* To see all History settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting Firefox will: Use custom settings for history
* Uncheck: [ ] "Automatically start Firefox in a private browsing session"
You also export the Favorites in IE to an HTML file and import that file in the Firefox Bookmarks Manager.
* Export the favorites in IE to an HTML file (bookmarks.html): File > Import and Export
* Import the HTML file in Firefox: Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Import HTML: From File

How do I prevent Firefox from locking up when I click on "Save As" under the "File" menu (resetting Firefox didn't solve the problem)?

I'm running Windows Vista Home Premium OS on Dell XPS 420 system. Firefox locks up each time I click on "Save As" under the "File" menu. Resetting Firefox did NOT solve the problem. If, instead of using Firefox, I log on to a website using Microsoft Windows Internet Explorer, the "Save As" feature works fine, as it should. I would occasionally like to save a web page, using "Save As" while using Firefox, instead of copying the page to a Word Document, and then saving it.

Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

Thanks for the follow up.
From what you wrote, you have Premiere Elements 10. Is that on Windows 7 64 bit or other. For now I will assume Windows 7 64 bit. If version 10 is on Windows 7 or 8 64 bit it is a 64 bit application running in the 64 bit system which makes it possible for full use of the 64 bit resources. That is good news especially when you are trying to take a large project to completion.
You set up the project preset in the new project dialog to match the properties of your source media. That setting directs the program to establish the right space in the Edit Mode Monitor for editing purposes. That project preset also directs the program as to what disc menu set (s, w, or hd) will be available to you in the disc menu section. The project preset also has more subtle effects on the project settings.
What is you plan for exporting your Timeline, export to file saved to the computer hard drive or burn to disc DVD or Blu-ray? Keep in mind that the setting for the project preset do not prohibit variations in the export choice under most conditions. If you post a description of your source media and how you would like to export it, I will offer some very specific guidelines on that.
If you do go the purchased book route, please try for one which is specific to your version 10. There has been a marked change in interface starting with version 11. Often principles remain the same from version to version, but features do not. And, I always write "It is very frustrating to be armed with principles when you cannot find a feature."
I suggest that you start with the Premiere Elements 10 Help PDF and then decide what next.
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/PremiereElements/10.0/Using/index.html
Also check out
http://tv.adobe.com/show/learn-premiere-elements-10/
A lot of these links that say version 10, roll over to 11.
Steve Grisetti, the moderator of this forum, writes books on Premiere Elements if you are interested in the purchased book route.
Hope the information above is helpful. Above all do not hesitate to ask if you have questions on your Premiere Elements workflow or need clarification on anything written.
Thanks.

In Firefox 8 on Mac OS 10.7.2, the file menu doesn't list "Import"

I just installed Firefox 8 on my Mac that is running OS 10.7.2. When I went to the File menu to import my bookmarks from Safari, the "Import" option was not there.

You can find the Import menu entry in the Bookmarks Manager (Library)
*Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Import Data from Another Browser
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Import_bookmarks

I need an import tab added to my firefox "file" tab on top of firefox page so I can import favorites from explorer

I have favorites in explorer I want to be able to import to firefox but I do not have an "import" tab under the "file" tab on top of my
firefox page that will allow me to do this. Could you help me get
such a tab added?

The ''Import'' command can be found in the Library (Bookmarks menu -> Show all Bookmarks).
