I NEED TO TRANSFER THE BOOKMARKS FROM ONE USER TO ANOTHER IN THE SAME COMPUTER??

I have created the recommended second user site on my computer.
Also I have Administrator user site on the same computer that I do not wish to use sometimes.
Both users are having the same Mozilla browser (win7) but the second user does not have bookmarks that the first user is having.
I am struggling already almost half a day by using all printed articles but WITH NO SUCCESS.
Please advise ma how to do it. I feel it should not be a big problem.
Thank you.
Norman

It can be tricky knowing how to locate and navigate between the different settings folders used by your different installations of Firefox.
To start, I suggest creating a folder that serves as a neutral location that Windows doesn't try to secure between users. For example:
C:\bmks
You can create a backup from the fully loaded copy of Firefox to that folder, then restore it into the empty Firefox. You've probably already found the procedures, but just in case, the following article describes both the manual backup procedure and the restore procedure:
[[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]]
If you have bookmarks in the newer profile that you do not want to lose, you can use an alternate export/import procedure using an HTML file. This doesn't carry over all the same information (e.g., tags). These articles have the details, and again I suggest using a "neutral" folder:
* [[Export Firefox bookmarks to an HTML file to back up or transfer bookmarks]]
* [[Import Bookmarks from an HTML file]]
Any luck?
When you're done, you can delete the contents of the neutral folder for privacy.

  • I'm trying to move my Bookmarks from one user to another on rhe same computer, but I can't open the account of the original user as it keeps crashing my machine. How do I do this?

    I set up another user account to start over as my original account keeps crashing my machine. I want to export my Bookmarks form my original account but I can open the account.Is there a way to get to the bookmarks from the administrator account and export to another copy of Firefox?
    Thanks

    You can restore a JSON backup from the not working profile in the current Firefox profile.
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Backing_up_and_restoring_bookmarks_-_Firefox
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    "Application Data" in XP/Win2K and "AppData" in Vista/Windows 7 are hidden folders<br />
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Show_hidden_files_and_folders
    Go to: Control Panel > Folder Options > "View" tab > under "Hidden files and folders", select "Show hidden files and folders"<br />
    You may want to uncheck the box "Hide extensions for known file types" to see the file extensions of all files.

    How to move iTunes from one user to another on the same Windows 7 computer? Thanks, Bob

    Move the iTunes library to a shared area and then into the desired location. If this isn’t the default one, launch iTunes with the Shift key held down and choose that library.

I recently bought a mac pro and wanted to create a new account that way i can use icloud, is there any possible way to transfer everything from my old library to my new one or will i lose everything i had on my phone and ipods?

    Lisa,
    Just get copies of the song files and add them to your iTunes library.  With the exception of any DRM-protected files (purchased before mid-2009 and never upgraded) they will play fine, even though they are technically associated with the original account.

  • How can I migrate from one user to another within the same computer?

    My main user account in my desktop is becoming buggy after to many migrations from different computers and long time usage. I would like to migrate from one user to another user within the same computer to see if this improves my current problems.
    How can I do it in a reasonably safe and quick way?
    Thank you very much, cheers, Rui
    iMAC, OS 10.6.8... and yes, I love Snow Leopard light and handy... and all my programs work on it...

    Move small groups of files to the /Users/Shared/ folder or another location and see if the problems disappear. Moving everything to a new user account will in all probability transfer the problems.

  • Transfer of emp from one PA to another PA in same comp or diff comp code

    Dear Members,
    I have been struck with new requirement from client. During transfer case of employees from one PA to another PA (personal Area) the pernr doesnt changes within same company code or different company code.
    My client needs if a employee has been transfered from one PA to another PA then automatically the Personal no. should change. It should happen for both within same company code or different company code, and his / her entiltled leaves should not be lossed, because its only tranfer case.
    In current scenario, pernr doesnt change at all whether it may be same or different compant code.
    guide me to resolve this with any configuration needed.
    Chandan

    or you can also have this triggered in the action like In case of global mobility when an employee transfers from one country to another we transfer all his personal details to the new Pernr and have a link between both the pernr's you can ask the programmer to create a dynamic action that transfers all the current existing master data info types to the new Pernr

  • How do I move imove content from one user to another on the same computer?

    We bought our Macbook pro about six months ago. We made the mistake of creating two users for it (my husband and myslef) but bow we only log in under my user name. The problem is we originally imported all of our video camera content to his "log in" and now it is in his imovie folder, and not mine. I want to make a movie on my log in with the fottage that we imported to his. So, how do I get video content from one users login on the SAME computer to the other log in users? I cannot seem to move it for the life of me. I did not expect this to be so difficult.

    Hi,
    You need to log into his account and look, under the Movies folder, for iMovie Events. Inside, you'll find folders with the events names and still further will be the movie itself. Copy each to an external media or use the Shared folder so both accounts can reference them.
    Another option would be to attach an external HD and via iMovie (Events Library pane) move them to the new disk. You would preserve the thumbnails and analysis already performed on the videos.
    Good luck!

    If all what you are interested is Scott schema than no need to use the datapump or CTAS. Run demobld.sql in your schema and it would have all the objects of Scott.

  • How can I transfer Firefox bookmarks from one Mactintosh to another?

    Had to reload foxfire onto Mactintosh and need to import the bookmarks on FireFox on my other MActintosh.

    Found the easiest way was to to use the Firefox Export function to create a Bookamrks.html by going to Firefox bookmarks and select Show All Bookmarks and select Export Bookmarks from the Library window. Then use a Flashdrive and take to the other computer and drop it on the Target computer Desktop there. Go to Firefox bookmarks and select Show All Bookmarks on target computer and select Import Bookmarks html from the Library window. Your bookmarks are now on the target computer

  • How do I transfer fonts on my notebook from one user to another on the same notebook (macbook air)?

    Hi can someone please help me in simple terms...
    Here is what I am trying to do.
    I have 2 users on my notebook (macbook air)  Tracey Brock (administrator)  Little Munchkins (second user)
    The templates that I have moved from my origingal user (Tracey Brock) to (Little Munchkins) all look different and has different font format. eg: I used Baby boston in original template on Tracey Brocks User and when I open it in Little Munchkins it has Arial as the font. I want it to be Baby Boston. I realised that this is because I have used fonts that were not originally in my fontbook on Tracey Brock and need to install these fonts in Little Munchkins but not sure how to do this.
    I copies the fontbook from Tracey Brock user to Little Munchkins user and placed it on the desktop but not sure how to get these into my Little Munchkins fontbook in applications.
    Can anyone help me with simple easy to follow instructions? No good with termonoligy.
    Any help would be greaty appreciated.
    P.S I am using OS X Mountain Lion if that helps.
    Thakyou in advace
    Tracey

    Open two Finder windows. In the first, choose Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu and provide ~/Library/Fonts/ as the path. Repeat the process with the second, but delete the ~ in the path. Drag the fonts from the first window to the second.
