Importing bookmarks in FF32 does not work. I have tried swapping places which has worked before, I have tried import in the bookmarks menu.

This is a windows 8 computer that was RESET yesterday that I am attempting to set up again.
I have copies of the bookmarks on another drive (and actually on another windows 8 computer running FF27) - I can not move the bookmarks onto this reset computer.
I have not attempted to move the whole profile yet just places and also tried export /import bookmarks.
I have just reinstalled FF32 and have the same problem. Yesterday I was successful in moving "places" onto the windows 8 computer with FF27.

somehow it is now working - it wasn't a few minutes ago but I do have bookmarks now and can add them
I tried lots of the suggestions - "You can try to delete the prefs.js file and the compatibility.ini file to force Firefox to reinitialize the profile." - tried it but it alone wasn't enough
I also installed Java during this process - it was probably needed and might be automatic to a techie but I am a mathematician not a computer person. I know I had installed java in the last few days but it wasn't visible in a search for the word java so I downloaded it again.
I took bookmarks back up file, places.sqlite, and bookmarks off the working Win 8 machine and tried to move them into the right spots in the folders - didn't work at first
I discovered the date on the working Win 8 machine was a day off and so when I opened a backup bookmark that was old enough with all the other changes I had made it finally worked.
I see now where the bookmarking star has moved - I liked the star in the location bar. I normally just use history. I also do not like the tabs on the top and other toolbars hidden away and change some of those on install. I will change these two Win 8 to my liking over this week but all of those changes were not urgent.
I have relinquished control of that Reset PC back to its "owner" until the next disaster. I know I have one program left to install (no rush I was told) and a handful of files to straighten out still but this last thing is status quo around here.
Thank you for all the ideas.
There is also System # 4 - Windows 7 with FF31 which is my main computer - System #2 exists as it was bought for me but I have not used it. I hate Windows 8 and hate the idea of moving all my files onto it. But there are enough problems on this CPU that if I gave it away as a hand me down I would spend too much time trying to fix it for my spouse so they got a brand new PC instead to replace XP. When I gave them the XP they got it "clean" with a new install of XP on a just cleaned HD.

When logging in into yahoo mail after typing in password Firefox is adding something, login fails all the time. At yahoo mail Notepad does not work because it is impossible to close the list of items and they cover information, so I have to go to IE.

Only when i go to a different browser (like IE) after i clear it , then all that shows up is the pages i visited in IE , that is what bugs me , why is IE browsing history sowing up in Firefox ??
Basically , i can clear the history in Firefox , and then for a example , go to Craigslist , using IE7 (launching it from a complete different Icon , in other words at that time i never open Firefox) , then after closing out , or even leaving open as it does not seem to matter , i go into Firefox , and hit History , and there is every place i visited in IE7 , on my History in Firefox

I'm going to assume that since you deleted your hard drive and all its files, you had a backup, yes? If the backup has an OS (bootable clone), then you can boot into it by holding down the option key when you start up you iMac and choose the backup drive. Then use Carbon Copy Cloner or Super Duper to copy the files back to your iMac.

Updated my iPhone to new iOS6 and my Memory Loader app does not work! Is there a fix for the problem as it seems I am not the only one coming across this issue?

Other than what you have already done, you should clear the cache from your browser and, if you use it, your Facebook app. Also, deleting old texts can free up some room.

I now use Firefox, but not sure which product number. Mozilla has been automatically downloading an update. When it is downloaded, the browser does not work. I keep having to restore the computer, and before long you download again. Help.

I'd like to stop the automatic downloads number one.
I'd also like a possible explanation as to why the new version will not work. I know that Microsoft downloaded a bunch of changes (12) that also seemed to screw up my computer. I have switched off their automatic downloads.

To stop Auto updates use: '''Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> Update Tab ''' <br> select the options you require ( see [[Updating Firefox]] )
As for why your version does not work I do not know but suggest you look at:
* [[Safe Mode]] Note when using safe mode do not make changes on the first dialogue Window you see; click the Continue button
* [[Basic Troubleshooting]]
You may also need to review the versions of Java see
* [[Using the Java plugin with Firefox]]
* "Why do I need Java 6 Update 10 and above for Firefox 3.6 and later versions? " - http://www.java.com/en/download/faq/firefox_newplugin.xml
Your System details show you as using version 3.6.12 of Firefox, that is not the latest version, it would be normal practice to update to the latest version, which is why you are being offered the updates. See also [[Software Update Failed]]

My touch pad does not work only when using Safari browser. The screen was grey. Help!

My touch pad does not work only when I use Safari browser online. The screen was grey. No matter what I do, there is no reponse. Only the web address box works. What is this problem? I can use App Store and everything else fine.
Someone please help.
Thanks

I would try:
- Resetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Go to Settings>Safari and delete cache, history and cookies.

Window.print() does not work in firefox 12 version where as the same works in IE

The following is the extract of page source of my application:<br />
<br />
<pre><nowiki><script language='javascript'>
function fncPrint()
document.getElementById("btnPrint").style.visibility="hidden";
document.getElementById("btnClose").style.visibility="hidden";
window.print();
document.getElementById("btnPrint").style.visibility="visible";
document.getElementById("btnClose").style.visibility="visible";
</script>
<td align='center' colspan='10'>
<input type='button' class='button' value='Print' name='btnPrint' onclick='fncPrint()'>
<input type='button' class='button' value='Close' name='btnClose' onclick='window.close()'>
</td>
</nowiki></pre>
This code works fine IE but when used with firefox does nothing, it does not go for printing. I can use Control+P but it will not dim print and close buttons.

You use document.getElementById("btnPrint"), but you only specify the NAME attribute in the input tags and not the ID.<br />
So you will have to add the ID as well to make Firefox find that element.<br />
<br />
<pre><nowiki><input type='button' class='button' value='Print' id='btnPrint' name='btnPrint' onclick='fncPrint()'>
<input type='button' class='button' value='Close' id='btnClose' name='btnClose' onclick='window.close()'>
</nowiki></pre>

how can I downgrade my operating system as my bluetooth work ok with my holde commodore on the 4.2.1 system but now it is upgraded to the latest system it does not operate properley

thankyou but it looks like we won't be buying another iphone

It will sometimes work, and then after I shut it down, and then it does not work again. It says it is the proxy server.

The proxy server is refusing connections
Firefox is configured to use a proxy server that is refusing connections.
It worked this morning, and now it is not working. It keeps doing this me. It will work, and then when I go to get on it again, it no longer works.
* Check the proxy settings to make sure that they are correct.
* Contact your network administrator to make sure the proxy server is
working.

Thank you, so much! That worked!!! I appreciate your help.

Lightroom 5 - Update from 5.0 auf 5.7 does not work. When I try to do the online update I get a message the programm does not find an *.msi file. Any ideas ?

Lightroom has been installed on my Laptop with a DVD.
In the Adobe Programm Folder on my harddrive I do not find a *.msi file.
Any ideas ?

Hello I was not sure where to find the right temp Folder. So I deinstalled the program and installed it again.
But with the same negative effect.
There are two ways for the update:
1) Within Lightroom: search for newer Version.
2) At the Adobe Website
1) Did not work
2) worked perfectly
Thanks for your help

Webcam and microsphone does not work on my new hp out of the box?

Just bought from Best Buy? HP - 17.3" Pavilion Laptop - 4GB Memory - 320GB Hard Drive - Pewter
When I turn on the webcam it says it is not enabled
when I connect through skyp, it is says mic is not enabled.
I verified them and they are enabled. This is just out of the box system.

Hi hk33,
Did you verify them in Device Manager?
Once you have verified that they are enabled in the Device Manager go to Skype setup.
Setup the HP webcam as the video source for Skype.
Setup your microphone and sound for the notebook and then exit the setup.
