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).
More information can be found in this [[Importing favorites and other data from Internet Explorer|Guide to Importing Favourites from Internet Explorer]].

I followed the instructions to import my favorites from Explorer, but there is no Explorer file under the Bookmarks tab. How do I get my favorites imported?
A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

I need to change a photo into a video file in order to post in youtube. How can I do this with my mac mini?
When I go to import, the choices are :
movies
camera archive
imovie for IOS
imovie for HD
It refuses to import a photo with any of these choices, which is located on the desktop or in a folder. It's a regular .jpg
There are instructions to drag it. I put it there, and it bounces right back. The photo will not stay.
I just need this one picture to go on so I can post a meditation on youtube. It doesn't come from a camera. -
is there a way to create form fields to tab into and type and or drop down selection fields in pages as you can with microsoft word?
No

I am using Firefox 30.0. I open a page that has links on it to see some PDF files. When I click on the link, Firefox use to open a new tab and display the PDF file. Now a new tab is opened, nothing gets displayed, and the new tab closes. What setting do I need to change in order to see the PDF file.

After opening certain websites, pogo, firefox 4.0.1 closes with no error message. When I restore the session I get: Well, this is embarrassing. Firefox is having trouble recovering your windows and tabs. This is usually caused by a recently opened web page.
I have had this problem before and had to reinstall an earlier version of firefox.
The error console has a long list of errors, many of them end with: does not implement nsIObserver. Is there a way to send the information on the error console to firefox support?
Redownloading Firefox 4.0 will fix my problem until I either close firefox or turn off my computer. The problem recurs when I open firefox again.See:

It is also possible that there is a problem with the files [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
Delete the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
* Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js
If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.<br />
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note).

I was unable to view Comcast videos, only, using IE 9, and a Comcast tech came out to my home to troubleshoot the problem. He could not resolve the issue within IE9 and I am operating from a Lenovo Laptop model type R500. The tech suggested that I use Mozilla Fire Fox for several reasons: 1) Fire Fox provides better security; and 2) it fixed the problem of me not being able to view Comcast videos, which I can not view in Fire Fox but not IE. I can most videos in both browsers, just now Comcast videos in IE. I have used IE for many, many years and have important websites stored in my IE "favorites" feature, but when I transferred usage to Fire Fox only my Bookmarks imported and not my "Favorites." How can I get my "Favorites" easily imported into Fire Fox?
Dear mbrubeck: Thank you for so quickly responding to my question and I was able to import my favorites based on your help -- thank you for your generous spirit of volunteerism to assist me. The only thing that has seemed to have become problematic, is that after I followed the instructions and successfully imported my favorites from IE9 into FF 5.0, the bookmark symbol, formally located on the right upper hand corner of the FF page next to the "home" button has disappeared and I do not know how to make it return, so that I can easily access my bookmarks. Any ideas on how to get that icon to return? Thank you again for your assistance, as I am brand-spanking new user of MFF. Thank you again for your help and if you can help figure this one last quirk, I would be most appreciative. TH

I want to import my Favorites from Internet Explorer but when I click on "File" on Firefox, the "Import" selection is greyed out and it will not give me the Import choice.
How do I import my Favorites?Make sure that you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode.

I have provided the information asked for but the message keeps popping up.
Doesn't sound like that message is coming from Firefox, Mozilla wouldn't need a phone number for anything. Firefox does use an email address for the Firefox Sync feature, but not a phone number - the Sync feature is automated.
Please provide a screenshot of that message, including the URL of the website where that happens. <br />

It appears that sync'ingis pretty much one way, from the desktop to the device. If you create a folder on the desktop that is synced through iTunes with the iPhone, that folder appears as an Album in Pictures on the device. But on the device you cannot add photos to that synced Album, so there is no way to use the desktop-based Album as an evolving target for new pictures on the phone, unless you do all the additions on the desktop software.
This really isn't "syncing".
Further, if you create a new Album on the iPhone, it doesn't appear in the sync'ed folders on the desktop.
The configuration for this discussion is iTunes 11 on Windows PC, iPhone 4S, and Windows Photo Gallery for picture editing on the PC.
I'd like to have Albums and PC-based Picture Folders truly sync'ed. Am I missing something or is this truly an iTunes Photo Sync'ing deficiency?The camera roll is not part of the sync process at all.
You should be importing these photos to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera. Youc an organize them on your computer and sync the to the iphone if you wish.
The photos sync from the computer to the iphone is one way.
The iphone mirrors the selected content of the computer to which it is synced. -
When I open Firefox, a lot of tabs try to open at the same time. They all say Problem loading the page. It happened after I tried to download a owners manual for Harley Davidson motor cycles. How can I stop all but one tab from opening.

When I open Firefox now, instead of opening up the standard Mozilla start page, it simply opens up a new tab page. Typing in the address bar and then hitting enter results in the address bar being cleared and the page staying the same. Attempting to send feedback via the add-on just opens another new, blank tab. For some odd reason, the Windows title bar has also come back above the orange Firefox button and the tabs.
I am unable to access the add-ons page to uninstall the add-on compatibility add-on to see if that will solve my problem and I have tried uninstalling the beta and reinstalling it, but the problem still remains.Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit") -
How do I upgrade my MacBook Pro from OS10.5.8 to the lastest software, which I believe is 10.7?
This is a company computer and the guy who had it before me never kept up with updates. Now I have some audio hardware whose software will only operate with 10.7. Do I have to upload all versions between 10.5.8 to get to the lastest firmware or can I go directly from 10.5.8 to 10.7? I've downloaded the 10.7 upgrade from the apple web site but when it finished downloading I received a message stating that I needed earlier software.
If I need to go through all of these other versions, where to I find them all and how many are there please?
ThanksTo upgrade from Leopard to Lion or Mountain Lion - you need to upgrade your current OS to Snow Leopard...
You can call Apple and order Snow Leopard and after you've upgraded to Snow Leopard, you can decide from there if you want to upgrade to Lion or Mountain Lion.
If you want to upgrade to Mountain Lion, click HERE to see if your Macbook is supported by ML.
good luck -
I just want all my searches to stay on the same tab that I already have open.
The browser.search.openintab pref applies to the (Google) search bar on the Navigation Toolbar and not to search bars on web pages.
