I see my bookmarks in my Favorites folder but they don't come up when I click on Bookmarks in Firefox browser.

I have all my bookmarks organized in c:/user/xxxxx/favorites on my PC (Vista Basic Home Premium). When I open the Firefox browser and click on Bookmarks on the Menu bar, only a few show up. How can I sync my bookmarks from my Favorites folder to Firefox browser? I searched the web and can't seem to find the solution to my problem.

You import the favourites into Firefox and it sets them up within the Firefox Bookmarks Library. From then on you can organise the bookmarks as you wish. If required it is also possible to sync Firefox bookmarks between another device also running Firefox.
Note Firefox bookmarks are stored in a database file within the Firefox profile. Firefox does not use an HTML favourites file, although it is capable of backing-up favourites as an html File.
See
* [[Import Bookmarks from Internet Explorer]]
*[[How to use bookmarks to save and organize your favorite websites]]
*[[Firefox Sync - Take your bookmarks, tabs and personal information with you]]
Note when HTML bookmarks are imported Firefox adds them to any existing bookmarks. (CARE the ordinary backups overwrite anything that is already existing - always manually backup your bookmarks before doing any restore of bookmarks).
*[[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]]

  • I keep bookmarking pages into a specific folder but they don't show up in that folder.

    What did you try?
    Is that the only folder that gives problems?
    Are you using Sync?
    Try to remove all places.sqlite file(s) in the Firefox profile folder to make Firefox rebuild the places.sqlite database from the most recent JSON backup (bookmarks-YYYY-MM-DD_<item count>_<hash value>.json) in the bookmarkbackups folder.
    You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
    *Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    If you use Sync then best is to disconnect Sync (temporarily) while performing maintenance/repair efforts to the places.sqlite database.

    I had tried those options before and this one and it didn't work.

    When I try to import .olm files from my external hard drive back up, where do they go? It says on different forums they go to the "on my computer" folder but they are not there.
    I go through all the instructions but then my emails do not appear. I'm starting to panic a bit!

    You might want to try asking on the MS Office Outlook forum - http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macoutlook - since those are Outlook files.
    Also note which method you're using to create a backup.

  • Create nested directory on FTP folder if they don't exist while uploading file

    How can I create nested directory on FTP folder if they don't exist. A local file is suppose to exactly uploaded in the same directory structure level in ftp folder. My question is -
     1. Is there any C# opensource/free library that take care of creation of all sub-directories from file-path, if they don't exist on ftp and upload the file in one shot.
     2. How much it will be feasible to make all these uploads along with some database update, archive, quarantine task in asynchronous? All succeeding tasks are sequentially depends in their order.i.e. ftp upload >> database update>> archive
    from local >> quarantine the folder
    This really requires parallel & asynchronous operation for heavy upload/transfer and going to be done by a Windows-Service.

    Hello,
    Your Subject:
    >Sender File adpter --don't raise alerts when file does not exist in folder
    is contradictory to your question.
    >if the file does not exist,it is throwing an alert like "Could not process file '.file..xml: No such file or directory '
    > Is there any way i can avoid raising an alert if file does not exist in the source folder.
    I know you want to say "Don't Raise alerts when file does not exist in folder". Correct me if I am wrong.
    Some times it happens, when we write the right thing but it means something else and this is the reason many experts have replied, "how to raise an alert". So if you remove the word "Sender File adapter" from your subject then it will be easy to understand the exact meaning.

  • Mail suddenly not being received from server. The ISP tells me there's nothing wrong at his end. I can see emails on the server if I look up WebMail; they don't come into Mail. I haven't changed anything lately.

    Mail suddenly not being received from server. The ISP tells me there's nothing wrong at his end. I can see emails on the server if I look up WebMail; they don't come into Mail. I haven't changed anything lately. The incoming server details haven't changed; the Connection Doctor shows the accounts are connected; I've turned everything off including the modern. Have exhausted my limited knowledge. Anyone with something similar?

    I have decided to dedicate this thread to the wonderful errors of Lion OSX. Each time I find a huge problem with Lion I will make note of it here.
    Today I discovered a new treasure of doggie poop in Lion. No Save As......
    I repeat. No Save As. In text editor I couldn't save the file with a new extension. I finally accomplished this oh so majorly difficult task (because we all know how difficult it should be to save a file with a new extension) by pressing duplicate and then saving a copy of the file with a new extension. Yet then I had to delete the first copy and send it to trash. And of course then I have to secure empty trash because if I have to do this the rest of my mac's life I will be taking up a quarter of percentage of space with duplicate files. So this is the real reason they got rid of Save As: so that it would garble up some extra GB on the ole hard disk.
    So about 20 minutes of my time were wasted while doing my homework and studying for an exam because I had to look up "how to save a file with a new extension in  mac Lion" and then wasted time sitting here and ranting on this forum until someone over at Apple wakes up from their OSX-coma.
    are you freaking kidding me Apple? I mean REALLY?!!!! who the heck designed this?!!! I want to know. I want his or her name and I want to sit down with them and have a long chat. and then I'd probably splash cold water on their face to wake them up.
    I am starting to believe that Apple is Satan.

    how do I get my songs from my Mac to play on my Iphone device? I see them in my music list but they don't play.

    Click on the Audiobooks icon at top left of iTunes window. It should be there. You can then drag it to your phone, or in File > Devices you can Sync iPhone.

  • I cannot get the iPhoto to read an old restored I photo folder. I can see all the pictures in the folder but iPhoto says they are unreadable.

    I have resorted all my files following a hard drive crash. I can see all my photos in an iPhoto folder but when I try and import to iPhoto it says all the files are unreadable.

    One should never import an iPhoto library into another iPHoto library.  What you should do is place the restored library in your Pictures folder (move any new library out of it) and launch iPhoto.  It will find the library in the Pictures folder and open it.

  • HT204074 I see a song in my purchased folder but will not play on iphone after it is synced

    I see a song that I purchased from itunes store and is in my purchased folder but will not sync to my phone.  it has a greyed out hollow circle next to it and it will not play on phone.

    In your summary page scroll all the way down to the bottom and make sure "sync only checked songs and vidoes" is NOT checked. Then go to your music tab to the right of the summary and uncheck music> apply> sync> Re-check sync music> apply> sync.
    Hope this helps!!!

  • I can see the pitcure in my folder but I get an error message when I pull up the picture

    I can see the pictures in my iPhoto folders but when I click on them to access, I get an error message.
    How can I pull these up? 

    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • I imported my IE Favorites folders but they are empty. I also tried exporting my IE Favorites to a html file but still did not work.

    All of my folders came over but are empty. I also exported my IE Favorites to a html file and then imported them but they also came over empty and there are no favorite links shown that were not in folders. When I look at the html file, I can see all the links.

    You only get a "From Internet Explorer" bookmarks folder if you use the Import wizard (Import Data from Another Browser).<br />
    Otherwise the bookmarks should just be appended at the end of the Bookmarks Menu folder.
    It is possible that the file path is too deeply nested if import isn't working.
