My desk-top is an iMac G5. I use the Firefox brouser exclusively on it and have for a number of years. I now have an iPad [#1] but it only has Safari as a brouser. When I "Sync" my iPad with my iMac it brings my "old" Safari bookmarks list to the iPad. I cannot find a way to get my "everyday" Firefox bookmarks list into the iPad? What do I have to do??
1. for your desktop <br />

2. get the '''FirefoxHome''' App for the iPad from the App Store -
I swapped my iphone from apple store india and my imei of iphone changed and i have lost the box and bill of phone , how can i get my old imei number.
Of course it changed. A phone's IMEI number is unique to each phone. The IMEI number for a phone does not transfer to another phone.
Since your iPhone was exchanged under warranty without having the box and bill for the original purchase, you don't need it now either. The exchange under warranty remains under the warranty for the original purchase. -
My iPod Touch 3rd Generation won't connect to iTunes. It keeps saying MobileDeviceService has encountered a problem and needs to close.How can I get it to work?
My iPod was working fine and then my oldest son put in a flash drive to download some music and now my iPod will not connect to iTunes.
Doublechecking something. Are you still back at SP2 for your XP? Or do you have SP3 in place? -
Hi I have just upgraded my computer to Mac OSX 10.6.7 now I cant open my FCE 4. Message reads, Hardware missing -AGP Graphics card. How can I get my FCE 4 working on the new computer? Cheers
Thanks, just so I know we are talking about the same items please let me know - When you say "run Prokit" do you mean downloaded? Which I did. I dont have Prokit 4.0.1 if you are referring to that, do I need this first? Please explain what application name I am looking for if other than Prokit which is sitting in my "download folder" do I need to manually put it into the apps folder? Sorry if the questions are layman but this area is not a very strong point for me. Thanks for your help so far.

My old computer has died, how can i get all my tunes on to my new computer and ipod?
My old computer died and i can't get access to itunes on it. how can i get itunes on my new computer without wiping my ipod and having to start again from scratch?
If the computer isn't functioning because of a operating system issue, but the computer itself still works, then it's possible to boot from a operating system on a cd or USB stick and transfer the files.
If the boot drive physically works (and it hasn't been encrypted), the files can be removed if the computer doesn't work as well. (more on that later as it costs more money)
For the first option your going to need to create a bootable USB or CD. I'm going to go with the easiest, a 2-4 GB USB thumb drive (nothing else on it of course)
Visit this page and download the Easy USB Installer for Windows.
http://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/
Now from the first menu there you select Ubuntu 10.10 and check the box to download the ISO of Ubuntu Linux. Wait for it to finish.
Now #2 browse to the ISO you just downloaded.
Now #3 you select the EXACT drive letter of the USB (look under My Computer/Computer)
Leave "show all drives" and "persistence" alone. Check "format drive" (be sure the drive letter is correct!)
Click "Create"
Once you got that done, stick the USB in the back of the computer (if a tower) and hook up a external USB hard drive. (nothing else on it.)
Now you need to find the BIO's boot key for your problem computer, DELL it's F2 to enter the BIO's (list at link)
http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/a/biosaccess_pc.htm
Navigate around in there and set the USB as the first boot option (or cd if you got a boot cd). Save the option.
Reboot the computer and it should boot off the USB. "Try Ubuntu/run from USB/CD" Don't install.
Once your in Ubuntu, you can easily go to the Places Menu and Select Computer, see all the drives and access your ENTIRE iTunes folder. Transfer this entire folder to the external USB drive.
Also you can grab your pictures and anyrthing else while your in there.
Now the second option is potentially destructive, if the computer doesn't work at all mechanically. Disconnect any power from the computer. Then you can remove the internal hard drive, use a powered IDE/SATA to USB adapter and plug it right into your new computer just like a external drive. However I would do a malware scan first.
Lastly if you got your iTunes Folder onto the new computer (replacing the new iTunes folder with the old). You need to open the XML file in a Text program that has "Find and Replace" ability. So you can correctly fix the partial pathnames from the old computer to the new computer.
This little step preserves all your playlists.
Once you got your content over, you should File > Backup Library to disk and feed it DVD-R's or use a external drive.
As you know, the iPod only sync's content one way, to the iPod. (exception for iTMS bought stuff on the iPod can be synced back into iTunes with the correct account enabled.) You might need to check iLounge for current third party software that reverses all content form a iPod back into iTunes.
Finally if this is all above your head, have a professional do it for you. Apple will not re-issue downloads, backing up is your responsibility.
Hope that helps. -

I originally synced my iPOD to my PC in April 2011. I purchased a new computer but my iPOD will not sync to it because it is synced to the old PC. I do not want to erase my iPOD to sync with the new PC because I have loaded alot of music from CD's to it. HELP!
See this article how to transfer your data? How to back up your data and set up as a new device
Make sure your new computer is authorized in iTunes. Disable autosync in itunes, connect your ipod, right click on it in the device list and choose backup.
This will save data, pictures and settings to itunes. See what's included in this backup here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
Transfer your purchases the same way to copy all apps and bought media from the Store to your computer.
Set up at least one contact and event on your computer to be able the merge your calendars and contacts after your ipod got wiped during the first sync.
The rest of the data can be restored from the backup you made.
Restoring: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
As mentioned by vazandrew, music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0 -
My computer was shut down with live work still needing to be completed within an open tab of Firefox. The site that I was working from had not been bookmarked and a saved link back to the site had not been done yet either. After starting my laptop back up and opening Firefox, I don't have anything in the history taking me back to the site. Can I get back to that session at all and if so how? Or how do I search?
You would really have to ask the app developer if there is a way to export the data.
As for adding a printer, you would need to purchase an AirPrint compatible printer and connect it to your wireless network.
By the way, your holiday letter/rant/Idon't even know what to call it... is completely inappropriate for these forums. -

I just decomissioned my windows pc in favor of a new (to me) MacBook Pro. When I attempt to sync my iPad I get a warning that I will erase all content on the ipad in order to sync with the new computer. How do avoid erasing all the data on the iPad, and get the iPad and the new Mac/iTunes to be friends?
Best option is to use Windows Migration Assistant as Ralph noted.
Here's a better (updated) link to Windows Migration Assistant for Lion -> http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4796
Or if you only want iTunes (Migration Assistant let's you choose) copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder from your PC to /Music/ on the Mac.
FYI: A MacBook is not a PowerBook. PowerBooks were discontinued in 2005. -
how do i get adobe export pdf on my computer while i am here in china on holiday ? i need it to convert pdf to word as there system will not open my pdf files
In the future, simply use a free service such as Google Voice or YouMail for the voicemail on your cellular device. You can access your voicemail via the web with these services without the need for an international phone call.
Edit: Unfortunately, this won't work for any voicemails you would have already received prior to setting up the service. -
How can I get DW to access my site frommy new computer?
I was using DW MX (yes!) successfully from my old computer (XP). But I have problems with the new computer (Windows 7). I transferred the copy of the site from the old computer to the new, installed DW, defined the site, tested the connection to the site successfully. When I make a change to the local copy of a page, save it, and Put it, DW says it has Put the file, but the web page doesn't update (after several attempts and refreshes). Can anybody help, please?
Tx, DaveMurray,
Ah, Host Directory field of remote site in site def is empty. What needs to go in there?
Folder names on Remote side start:
(top level unnamed)
images
logs
Site Files

How can I get my music on iTunes on my new computer?
I just got a new computer because my old one totally died. All I want to do is get my iTunes on my new computer to have all my music on it, just like it was on my previous computer. I have an first generation iPod Touch, 16GB.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer files/docs/pics/music/etc.
Use your backup copy to put everything back.
The music sync is one way - computer to ipod.
The exception is itunes purchases. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases -
I have a new computer and have put some music on it before I hooked up my iPhone. So now I have some music on my iPhone that I don't have on my computer and I don't want to 'sync' and lose some of the music on my iPhone. So I would appreciate it if someone could help me out with getting the music off my iPhone and adding it to my new iTunes??
The syncing of music is not a true sync process - not really a sync at all. It is a transfer process. No iTunes content in your iTunes library will ever be touched or removed by syncing an iDevice.
Where is your old computer - the one with your iTunes library that was used to sync with your iPhone? Why didn't you transfer your iTunes library from your old computer to your new computer along with all other important data such as documents, photos, etc.?
If your old computer is still available, transfer your iTunes library from your old computer to your new computer per the instructions included with this link. This will prevent any iTunes content from being removed from your iPhone with the first sync with iTunes on your new computer.
