Migrating FireFox passwords to Macbook Air from powerbook G5

Planning to buy macbook air is possible to migrate saved passwords form firefox using the assistant?

Local backups are just that - local to the computer. When your computer backs up to TimeMachine it saves what has been changed since the last backup - not including caches, etc. and that would include local backups.

  • After migrating to a new MacBook Air from an older MacBook, iPhoto gets stuck on uploading cache, it just "spins" forever. I downloaded a new iPhoto app and replaced it but when opened it just does the same thing? What is going on?

    After migrating to a new MacBook Air from an older MacBook, iPhoto gets stuck on "uploading cache", it just "spins" forever. I downloaded a new iPhoto app and replaced it, but when opened it just does the same thing? What is going on? Where are my photos now? How can I upload photos from my camera without iPhoto?
    Is there a better app?
    Thanks, Chris

    Take the system to an Apple store to be fixed or replaced as the one you have has defective hardware.

  • I purchased a macbook air from someone on craigslist, and when i try to download iPhoto, it tells me that these apps were already designated to another apple id.

    I purchased a macbook air from someone on craigslist, and when i try to download iPhoto, it tells me that these apps were already designated to another apple id. any way to reset the app store from thinking it's still alligned with him? Lion was reset already, but this isn't. If i download on my mac mini, will i then be able to retrieve the download on my air?

    Hi...
    On the MBAir drag the iPhoto app to the Trash, empty the Trash.
    Then try purchasing and downloading iPhoto.
    You can re download iPhoto on all your authorized Macs. To authorize the MBAir, launch iTunes. From the menu bar click Store > Authorize This Mac. You will be prompted for your Apple ID and password.
    Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
    Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
    Select which apps you want to re download. Then right or control click where you see Installed  then click Install.
    Make sure and use the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.

  • After updating Firefox on my MacBook Air (OSX 10.6.8), it has ceased to work. I open it, but it never gets beyond the Connecting... message.

    I have always used Firefox on my MacBook Air. But since updating to the latest version of Firefox (7.0.1), it freezes as soon as I open it - there is a constantly running "Connecting..." message, and the little circle turns continuously, and there is a blank page. Eventually, I get an error message saying "Connection Timed Out" - and it does not matter which website I try to contact. All my other browsers (Safari, Chrome" work fine

    Hi franverdi-
    It sounds like you've run into issues from the upgrade. I've found a Support article that helps with issues of not being able to connect after an upgrade:
    [[Cannot connect after upgrading Firefox]]
    I hope that helps!

    If you didn't purchase the extended warranty, AppleCare, you are not entitled to any repairs free of charge once the 1 year warranty expires.

  • Use of 802.11 ac wifi with my MacBook Air from end of 2010

    Is it possible to upgrade my MacBook Air (from end of 2010) with an adapter for 802.11 ac? I want to use it with a new AirPort Time Capsule.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Your AirPort card does not allow you to use 802.11ac. However, you can buy a Wi-Fi adapter that supports 802.11ac, so you can connect to your new AirPort Time Capsule through 802.11ac.
    Note that this is not necessary, and that most users will not note any difference between 802.11ac and 802.11n, which is the connection that your Mac will use to connect to your AirPort Time Capsule through the internal AirPort. Also, note that you will need a driver for the Wi-Fi adapter

  • How update my macbook air from OS X 10.5.8 to newest OS

    how I can update my MacBook Air from OS X 10.5.8 to newer OS avalaible

    You can't directly upgrade from 10.5 - call Apple and purchase 10.6. Back up your computer and install 10.6. I'm not sure what version of 10.6 you'll get - you may need to download an update to 10.6 before you can upgrade to 10.8 because the App Store wasn't part of the original 10.6 - it came with the 10.6.8 update if I remember properly. Once you've upgraded to 10.6 and have the App store you can upgrade to 10.8.

  • Upgrade Hard disk on a macbook air from 80g to 120g

    I'm trying to upgrade my hard drive disk on a macbook air from the original 80g to the new 120g, does some one knows were can I find and buy the 120G HDD?

    Hi Andres,
    there is a problem if you mean the 120 GB HDD from Rev. B - your MBA uses the PATA-interface, the new one the SATA-interface.
    In one sentence: The 120 GB from Rev B. will NOT fit your Rev A.

  • Is Firefox available on MacBook Air?

    I recently bought an iPad as I thought I'd be able to use it for my university studies. We already have a desktop Mac. I have discovered that I can't get Firefox on the iPad, and my uni studies require Firefox (I understand so that pop-ups and flash are allowed). I am thinking of selling the iPad and buying a MacBook Air but I want to first make sure that I can get Firefox on the MacBook Air. Please let me know whether this is possible.

    Hey Jen.Mar,
    You should be fine if you are buying a MacBook Air. Take a look at the system requirements for Firefox version 9:

    I love my MacBook. Hopefully you'll love it too!

  • When I try to burn a CD off of my MacBook Air (from iTunes) using the external CD drive, it acts like it is burning the CD, but then when I try to play it the CD is blank.

    When I try to burn a CD off of my MacBook Air (from iTunes) using the external CD drive, it acts like it is burning the CD, but then when I try to play it the CD is blank.

    Many thanks for the diagnostics.
    Failed while scanning for CD / DVD drives, error 2380.
    Error while opening iTunes CD driver.  This could be caused by a corrupted iTunes file or a conflict with other older CD burning applications, either currently installed or previously installed and uninstalled incorrectly.
    With that one, I'd start with solution 3 from the following document:
    iTunes for Windows: Optical drive is no longer recognized, or "Disc burner or software not found" alert after install
