Import choice under File pulldown menu is gary and cannot be selected, why?

I would like to import my Bookmarks from Safari. The "Import" choice under the File menu is gray and cannot be selected. Please advise.

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

    I think it's QuickTime player causing the problem, when I try to open it I get the windows error that an error has occured
    Let's try swapping out your QuickTime again, taking a few extra explicit precautions this time.
    Head into your Add/Remove programs. uninstall QuickTime.
    Next, we’ll manually remove any leftover program files and folders.
    1. On the Start menu, click My Computer (or double-click My Computer on the Desktop).
    2. In My Computer, open Local Disk.
    3. Open Program Files.
    4. Right-click on the QuickTime folder and click Delete from the shortcut menu.
    5. Navigate to C:\Windows\system32\.
    6. Remove the files QuickTime.qts and QuicktimeVR.qtx. (If “Hide filename extensions for known file types” is enabled on the PC, then those two files will appear as “QuickTime” and QuickTimeVR”.)
    7. Restart your computer.
    Now download and save a copy of the latest standalone QuickTime installer to your hard drive. (We'll run the install from there rather than online.)
    Latest Quicktime Installers … get the one that doesn’t mention iTunes
    Switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the install. Start the install by doubleclicking the QuickTimeInstaller.exe.
    If that install goes through okay, restart the PC and try launching iTunes again. Does your iTunes launch properly now?
    (If you get an error message on the QuickTime uninstall or standalone reinstall, let us know what it says. Include error message numbers if you're getting any.)

  • How do I trim video clips in Quicktime Player?  The "trim" function under the edit menu is gray and won't do anything.

    I am trying to edit video clips from about two yesrs worth of video for an iMovie.  I don't want to load all of the clips into a new event because it would be hours worth of video.  I don't even know if iMovie could handle it.  I have tried to use Quicktime Player to do this, but the "trim" function under the edit menu is gray and won't let me do anything.  What can I do?

    Thank you so much!
    It works!
    I used this code...
    videoDisplay.addEventListener(VideoEvent.COMPLETE, videoCompleteHandler);
    private function videoCompleteHandler(event:VideoEvent):void {
         hideVideo();
    private function hideVideo():void {
         this.visible = false;
         this.includeInLayout = false;
    I have a follow up question...
    What is the syntax to target the video player from a different component to add an event listener to a button in the Sharing Widget called Back to Video?
    Thanks!!

  • No upgrade from Elements 11 choice under file menu

    I have followed the Help and the TV tutorial but Lightroom 4.4 doesnt have an upgrade elements catalog choice under the File menu as they suggest. Any idea how I can import my Elements 11 catalog?

    The right-hand panel usually appears whilst creating a new album e.g. having selected images from a folder. You need to click OK or cancel to complete. You can drag photos from another folder or the media view into the album once created. Click on the album name under local albums to view the contents. From the dropdown list you can sort by date or choose Album Order to view in fixed positions. For example if you drag and drop a photo into position #1 it will always remain in that position.

  • Can I copy a playlist bought from Itunes store.  So far can not see "burn" as choice under File per info

    Bought a compilation CD, 2.3 hours----323MB, and want to make a copy to play in my stereo.  (It has not AUX input so connecting the laptop is not an option)
    First time I've done this so put in CD-R and got message to mark the playlist and then choose File--Burn list to CD.
    Did so, but no choice offered under File heading like burn.
    What's up?  What's wrong.  What to do?
    PS Have just installed Itunes 10.5, which doe NOT have an accessible Help file on line, as many have reported.

    The store sell songs in protected AAC format, that is ALL they sell. The protection prevents a direct format change. What you can do is burn your purchase to an audio CD, that audio CD can be used in the same manner that you can use any CD you would purchase at your local store.
    Any major download site is required to have protection on their files by the major record companies to slow down the chance of illegal file sharing. Napster, the store for the Zune player, all of them will have protection that puts strict limits on what you can/can't do with your purchases. Hope this helps.

  • HT4399 I have a Mac Book Air and have purchased individually numbers and pages.  I was given an excel file on a thumb drive and cannot open it.  Is there a way to open the xcl file in numbers?

    I have a MacBook Air, and have purchased individually Numbers and Pages.  I was sent an Excel file on a thumb drive but cannot open the file.  The message states that the Excel file is encryeted.  Is ther any way to open a PC file on my Mac Book Air?
    Pat and Bob

    Excel does not use the .xcl extension for any of its native file formats?  The only files I've ever seen with xcl as the file extension were associated with embedded application code projects.
    If this is in fact an Excel file, but an encrypted one, you cannot open it (in excel or any compatible application) without the decryption password.

  • Want to import bookmarks from IE to Firefox to update my list. Import function under File is not avaiable as it is listed but not active.

    In the past I have imported my favorites from IE to Firefox bookmarks. Now I want to redo it to update the ones I have in IE but not in Firefox. When I click on File the drop down menu has Import listed but it is not highlighted or you might say its shadowed out and does nothing when I click on it. I guess my question is how can I make the import option active so I can use the import wizard?

  • HT2905 No Display Duplicates under File. How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library

    I now have iTunes ver 11.0.4.4 under Windows 7. I lost all iTunes stuff when updating to Windows 7. I have loaded thousands amd thousands of music files from backup disks, but there are many duplicates. I am attemping to re-establish my old library. I used to be able to remove duplicates quickly with the old iTunes. The new iTunes doesn't seem to offer the same service. Is there any way to remove duplicates quickly, or must I do it one by one?

    When deduping use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks. If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin. Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.
    (If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed)
