Importing bookmarks does not work. Why?

I tried following directions to import from IE (I'm running v8) but the FireFox 'File' menu link 'Import' is grayed out and doesn't work. I've already created the HTML file from IE. This is on a Windows Vista PC.

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode.
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Private+Browsing
*You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
*To see all History and Cookie settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting <b>Firefox will: Use custom settings for history</b>
* Deselect: [ ] "Permanent Private Browsing mode"

  • Import bookmarks does not work

    I am trying to import bookmarks from Safari but it does not work. I followed the online help for this but when I get to the 'Library' page after selecting 'Bookmarks' 'show all bookmarks', there is no 'import and back up' function so I cannot complete the next step. Please help with a solution. I'm running Firefox 16.0.1 on Mac OSX 10.7.5

    That icon is there.<br />
    The one that is meant is the last icon (third after the B/F buttons) on the toolbar with a star like shape and a drop down marker.
    You may have to edit the HTML file and remove the FOLDED attributes in all H3 Tags.

    Well the error message is in Swedish but says: The installation program database is damaged. Please contact the Adobe support (which is a hard thing to do!!). I use Windows 7 Home Premium with service pack 1.

  • The Restriction option to NOT ALLOW CHANGES to Mobile or Cellular data does not work why is this ?

    The Restriction option to NOT ALLOW CHANGES to Mobile or Cellular data does not work why is this ?

    Hi there,
    You may want to try force closing all open apps and resetting the device as an initial troubleshooting step. Take a look at the articles below for more information.
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Additionally, you may want to try completely disabling and re-enabling restrictions.

  • Import package does not work - beginner help

    Hi, I'm a beginner with java. I just trying to figure out how to use packages. I followed everything in the tutorial, but I can't figure out why my simple example does not work.
    I made the following directories three, for the sake of the example.
    in /home/username/Desktop I created a directory named it
    inside it I created prove
    inside prove I created test1 and test2
    Inside test1 I created the following sample class:
    package it.prove.test1;
    public class HelloWorld
         private String message;
         public HelloWorld(String message)
              this.message = message;
         public String getMessage()
              return this.message;
    }in the directory test2 I created this other one:
    package it.prove.test2;
    import it.prove.test1.HelloWorld;
    public class HelloWorldProgram
         public static void main(String[] args)
              HelloWorld hw = new HelloWorld("Guten Tag, Welt!");
              System.out.println(hw.getMessage());
    }So now I have this three:
    it
    it/prove
    it/prove/test1, it/prove/test2
    As I said in test1 there is HelloWorld.java and in test2 HelloWorldProgram.java.
    When I compile HelloWorld.java, it worked fine.
    When I try to compile HelloWorldProgram.java, the compiler says that cannot find package it.prove.test1..
    Why that? What did I make wrong?
    Sorry both for my bad english (it is not my first language) and for the really trivial question (I'm a really beginner).
    Tnx to whoever will help

    Assuming you are running on Windows here.
    Packages are directly tied to the classpath. Before java can find the it.prove.test1 package, it needs to be a part of the classpath. To make this possible, you need to add the root of the path, where the 'it' directory is in, to the classpath, like this:
    javac -cp .;/home/username/Desktop file.java
    the -cp switch tells java which classpath to use; it consists of two elements:
    . = current directory
    /home/username/Desktop = the directory containing the 'it' package root
    When run like this, it should work. The same goes for running the code, you would run it like this:
    java -cp .;/home/username/Desktop it.prove.test2.HelloWorldProgram
    Hope that gives you the hints you need.

  • After the upgrade to Mozilla 32 using csv files to import data does not work anymore. What should I do?

    Hello,
    After the latest upgrade to Mozilla 32 a previously recorded imacros scirpt in which the data was being imported into mozilla from a csv file keeps erroring out. This same problem occurred with the with the upgrade to Mozilla 30 and was fixed when Mozilla was upgraded to 31. Can you please advise on how to correct the problem so that csv files can be used in conjunction with imacros scripts. I would like to point out that imacros still works without the use of csv files, but when you introduce a csv to the script the imacros does not work.
    Thank you,
    Eugene

    hello eugene, please directly contact the imacros extension developers through the means provided at their [http://forum.iopus.com/viewforum.php?f=11 forum] - they can likely give you more detailed guidance and are the only ones who can fix bugs or make necessary adjustments in the addon for new firefox versions. thank you...

  • Firefox updated, Video download helper no longer works, no error msg. I have uninstalled both Firefox and VDH, reinstalled, VDH still does not work, Why

    Video Download Helper does not work after most recent update. I have cleared cache and cookies, uninstalled both Firefox and the helper,that has not corrected.When Firefox does an update are the "vendors notified so they can see if their product needs changes in order to be compatible? This may sound like a stupid ?, but it makes sense tome. Telling me to download something else, in my eyes is not REALLY solving the problem.

    Don't uninstall 36. Just download and install 35 over top and you don't lose any data. I already did and everything works just fine. But I did remove VDH first.

  • My home button does not work. why?

    What is wrong with THE iPad Home button.  Only a couple of months old. Moderate use at most and the Home button does not work at all.  Is this easily sorted out or should the iPad be replaced?

    Bring it to a Store. Hardware problems are best sorted out there. Until then use multi-touch-gestures. HOpe this helps.

  • Do not import duplicates - does not work

    After several Aperture and MacBrook Pro updates, Aperture does not recognozise duplicates when I check off "do not import duplicates". It has worked well in the past. Any ideas?

    I think the Aperture product manager needs a kick in the pants.

  • AVCHD Clip Stabilization does not work, why?

    Hi!
    I can't use stabilization and crop with AVCHD video. Button is not avalible
    Why?

    The same strange behaviour with my system;I have found out that the stabilizer only works when you import the AVCHD file first and afterwards do the stabilization-analysis of the clip in the timeline; anyway: Smoothcam in fcp7 worked a lot better, I really hope there will be an update soon for this issue!

  • 1.4 - Important sites will not work & why are the AIM / Facebook contacts integrated with my phone contacts?

    Two issues I am having with my phone.
    1 - Before upgrading to the 1.4 software patch, I was able to visit some sites that I use regularly, one being www.hotschedules.com. I bartend and use my phone to look at my weekly schedule but now it will not work. Just to test it, I used a buddies phone who had not upgraded to 1.4 and the site opened JUST FINE!
    2 - I want to use facebook and AIM on my phone but for some (stupid?) reason, ALL of my facebook and aim contacts get listed in the SAME LIST as my phone contacts. I do NOT want to scroll through hundreds of contacts to find someone. Yes I know there are shortcuts but why even do this in the first place?

    Hello eculley and welcome to the forums;
    I attempted the website you mentioned, and it loaded fine on 1.4.1.1 on my Sprint Pre. We did identify some issues with websites on 1.4, and this should be resolved with 1.4.1. I know 1.4.1 is not available for Verizon yet, however it should be available soon.
    As for Facebook contacts, they show in the Synergy contact list by design, so that you can see all of your contacts in one master list. If you do not want those contacts showing in your Contacts app, you can open Preferences & Accounts for contacts and remove any account you don't want to see contacts for.
    Hope this helps!

  • Font changing size when i go to yahoo mail on my new netbook sometimes its ok other times it appears microscopic i have to close firefox then reopen and sometimes this works other times it does not work Why ?

    this does not happen on any other site i visit only on yahoo mail.yahoo,s answer to the same question is we dont know reason maybe its firefox.

    I have had that happen with Comcast web mail, too. You can't hold the Ctrl key and then use the scroll wheel to do certain functions in the web mail software. That function will work in the web mail software, but you will also change the Zoom factor of the page. You have to remember to '''''reset''''' the Zoom factor immediately, Firefox will remember the Zoom factor and use that until you reset it to default.
