I would like to recover my bookmarks from my old hard drive that I now have as an external USB drive. The old OS was Vista; the new is Windows 7.

I recently had a new hard drive installed on my laptop; this hard drive has the Windows 7 OS on it.
At the same time, I had my old hard drive mounted in an SATB enclosure so that I could use it as an external USB drive. [I stupidly did not export my bookmarks before doing all of this]
Everything seems to work fine [I can see all of the files], but I cannot find out where my bookmarks are stored on the old hard drive.
Is it possible to find them and get them transferred over to the new hard drive??
Thanks!!

Bookmarks are stored in a file called places.sqlite inside the profile folder. You can copy that file from the old profile folder into your current profile folder. For details of how to find the profile folder see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles or http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
You can recover more than just the bookmarks - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Recovering+important+data+from+an+old+profile

I would like to import my bookmarks from IE but the 'Import Data from Another Browser' is greyed out and not an available choice.

By following the directions on Firefox to open up the Library tool - import & backup - The drop down choice to 'Import Data from another Browser' this choice is greyed out and unavailable. I do not know how to proceed in order to import my favorites from IE.

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode.

There are some wifi-enabled drives that allow you to stream content from them to the iPad e.g. GoFlex Satellite and Kingston Wi-Drive - I haven't used any so I don't know if one is better than the other

What browser is currently set as the default browser?
If Firefox is set as the default browser then it is possible that links that open the default browser will now open Firefox.

I can not remember my icloud password. I would like to recover it but the difficulty is my apple id and Icloud have differnt passwords and the links for recovery all work only to chnage my apple id password.

I can not remember my icloud password. I would like to recover it but the difficulty is my apple id and icloud have different passwords and the links for recovery all work only to change my apple id password. SO how do I recover the icloud password?

An Apple ID is used for everything (including this site) and including iCloud. See the quote below from https://appleid.apple.com/
There is no such thing as an iCloud password but it is possible that you have 2 Apple IDs and you are using one of them for iCloud.
An Apple ID is your user name for everything you do with Apple: Shop the iTunes Store, enable iCloud on all your devices, buy from the Apple Online Store, make a reservation at an Apple Retail Store, access the Apple Support website, and more.

Install disk drive from old computer in an external enclosure.
Then copy the complete iTunes library from the disk drive to the disk drive in the new computer.

HT203167 I would like to download my music from an iPod to iTunes library is that possible? Our last computer got fried so unable to retreive info from it to new computer. Will I have to re-install all the music from CD's?

I would like to download my music from my iPod touch to iTunes library, is that possible? Our old computer fried and we were unable to salvage any information. All of the music that I downloaded from CD's is not in iTunes on our new computer. Will I have to reload all CD's?

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.
Have you failed to do this?
If so, then you will need to rip the dvds again

I would like to display my bookmarks permanently. Clicking on Firefox, Options and then checking the Bookmarks Toolbar does not do this. How can I display the bookmarks along the left margin like they used to display?

What do I have to do to permanently display my bookmarks?

I asked how I could display my bookmarks permanently.
This answer does not address that issue. Instead, it tells me how I can display my bookmarks temporarily.
While this is nice to know, I wanted to find out how to display my bookmarks permanently - not temporarily.

I have an Ipad2, an Iphone 4 . I want to be able to sync both of these with my Windows desktop and Outlook 2007. I would like to sync to and from the Idevices and Outlook.

I have an Ipad2, an Iphone 4 . I want to be able to sync both of these with my Windows desktop and Outlook 2007. I would like to sync to and from the Idevices and Outlook. When I attempt to sync in itunes I get a popup message asking if I want to delete, Merge or cancel. Not wanting to delete of cancel the only option left is Merge.
When selecting Merge all of the entries in outlook are added to the idevice. The next time I merge all of the same entries plus any new ones are added, resulting in older entries being repeated i.e an entry like “John’s Birthday” will appear 5 or 6 times on the same date.
How do I resolve this issue? How do I get the the sync process to add only new entries?

This is a great question. First, facetime will not work because it has to establish a Call connection first. iMessage should work, but how to get it going I am not sure. Two great Apps to try are, Viber and Skype. Viber is excellent, it works over WiFi, you can make free calls and free text messages all over the world with other users who have Viber installed. It does not even have to be open on screen to work. Viber does have to recieve one text message with activation code, to activate it, this will be your only hurdle, but maybe Verizon can help you get that one text message. Skype does have to be open on screen however, but this can function like Facetime with WiFi connection. Definitely get Viber free in App Store, and put it on all your iDevices so the old Verizon iPhone can function as a telephone when on WiFi.
