My synced bookmarks are not correctly corresponding to what they should be after syncing, how do I correct this?

Hi, I have been trying to sync my bookmarks/tabs from my laptop to a new PC running windows 8 on my laptop and windows 7 on the PC. It took a while for any of the tabs to appear. When the finally appeared on the PC in Firefox, I checked the bookmarks but they do not correspond to the right website ans many are missing. Will this correct itself in time while the data is being synced, or is this a permanent error?
I've transferred the bookmarks many times over the years quite simply in the past, but this time, it has taken ages to work it out and see anything actually appearing on the new device (My PC). I don't know if this is normal or if I should I expect it to take a few days or hours! Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you

Sorry but I don't use sync. Only one computer.
Press the '''Alt''' or '''F10''' key to bring up the tool bar. Then select
'''Bookmarks'''. Hot key is '''<Control>''(Mac:<Command>)''<Shift> B.'''
Once the window is open, at the top of the page, press the button labeled
'''Import and Backup.''' Select '''Export Bookmarks To HTML,''' and follow
the prompts and save it to a '''HTML''' file. Copy the file to another computer.
Repeat the instructions above, BUT select '''Import Bookmarks From HTML,'''

  • My ipod 5th gen won't change volume when headphones are plugged in, but when they are not I can change the volume on the speaker.  How do I fix this?

    Try a hard reset of the Nano. To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    I assume you have double checked to make sure you are plugging the headset all the way in meaning the white part of the headset is flush with the body of the Nano?

  • Using LR 5 to make slideshow and images in the preview are correct but when I play the actual slideshow the pictures are a lot smaller than what they should be. Help!

    I'm making a slideshow with Lightroom 5. I'm using a 2014 Macbook Pro. Everything works except when I play the actual slideshow the pictures are smaller than what they should be. But the preview is showing the correct photo size. Does anyone know why this is happening and how to fix it? Thanks!

    Hey ronfya
    Did you ever get any feedback on this? I haven't read the Technicolor link yet.  I was just trying to figure out why my stuff comes out darker on Vimeo. Could this be because FCPX is displaying it to brightly?

  • Just purchased Nikon D610. tried to import 3 images and got this message: The files are not recognized by the raw format support in Lightroom. How do I fix this frustrating problem. Have been using Lightroom for years also Nikon products without any prior

    How do I import images. Have a message that says: The files are not recognized by the raw format suppot in Lightroom. Am using a Mac version 10.9.4. the import is from a new Nikon D610. Am using LR 4.4 Please help Adobe is useless as a support.

    Each camera must be supported explicity and your LR version is years older than your camera.
    According to Adobe's Camera-support page, you need at least LR 5.3 to work with your D610 NEFs in LR:
    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
    If you don't want to upgrade to LR 5, or can't due to your OS being too old, then it might work to use the latest DNG Converter and create DNGs from your NEFs, which should open in LR 4.x.  You can find the DNG Converter here:  http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates

  • My e-mails are not sending. "connection to SMTP server timed out." How do I get this working?

    As of yesterday, I am receiving e-mails fine; however, unable to send. Everytime I try to send an e-mail, I get "Sending of message failed. The message could not be sent because the connection to SMTP server (my mail address) timed out. Try again or contact your network administrator.

    Help!!!

    Thank you.

    To diagnose problems with Thunderbird, try one of the following:
    *Restart Thunderbird with add-ons disabled (Thunderbird Safe Mode). On the Help menu, click on "Restart with Add-ons Disabled". If Thunderbird works like normal, there is an Add-on or Theme interfering with normal operations. You will need to re-enable add-ons one at a time until you locate the offender.
    *Restart the operating system in '''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safe_mode safe mode with Networking]'''. This loads only the very basics needed to start your computer while enabling an Internet connection. Click on your operating system for instructions on how to start in safe mode: [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/windows-startup-settings-including-safe-mode Windows 8], [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/start-computer-safe-mode#start-computer-safe-mode=windows-7 Windows 7], [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/start-computer-safe-mode#start-computer-safe-mode=windows-vista Windows Vista], [http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/boot_failsafe.mspx?mfr=true" Windows XP], [http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1564 OSX]
    ; If safe mode for the operating system fixes the issue, there's other software in your computer that's causing problems. Possibilities include but not limited to: AV scanning, virus/malware, background downloads such as program updates.

  • I have version 3.6.23 on a desktip PC. When I "check for updates", I get a message that there are no updates available. What version should I have and how do I get it?

    I tried to use a shmetsy.com tool for Etsy. I couldn't use it because of my version of Firefox - 3.6.23
    I went to "About Mozilla Firefox" to check for updates and got the message "There are no updates available"

    I don't know what versions of Firefox work with Shmetsy. Do they have a system requirements page? It's not in the very short FAQ...
    You have the latest in the 3.6 line.
    If you want Firefox 7, go to http://www.mozilla.org/firefox to get the installer.
    Normally, major upgrades go without a hitch, but just in case, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings to cover yourself in the rare case that something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)

  • Some of my bookmarks are not working in my safari browser after dl of snow leapord, do i need os x moutain lion and maveriks?

    Bookmarks are not working properly, example: bank of america, and lumosity. How do I download OS X Maveriks if I just downloaded snow leopard?

    First of all make sure your download is complete.   If you bought the disk that gave you Snow Leopard, it would probably have been 10.6.3.   That means you need to download and apply the 10.6.8 Combo updater and do some software updates too.
    Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1
    Then check that your machine is capable of running these higher OS's
    Apple - OS X Mavericks - Read the technical specifications.

    Bookmarks are not syncing to ONE of my Macs, but showing up on other Mac (work), iPhone 4 and iPad 1. Macs are on Mountain Lion. Tried all of Apple's suggestions - and the one Mac is still not updating/syncing Bookmarks or Reading List. What's going on? Do I have to wait to OS update? It seems lots of peolple were having issues before ML, but I as fine. Since ML, I am having all kinds of issues!

    Yeah, I literally have tried everything except deleting my iCloud account (I'm close, but that would require so many changes that it is way too painful to consider at this point).
    I am still waiting to hear back from Apple Support. Hopefully something can be done, or they can do a reset on their end.
    Thanks for taking the time to respond though, much appreciated!

  • Aurora 27.0a2 (2013-11-15) ModernUI - SYNC´ed bookmarks are not visible

    Using ModernUI in Win 8.1 with SYNC seems to work on hand: Typing in keywords associated to URLs displays the right SYNC´ed URLs. But the bookmarks are not displayed.
    In desktop mode the SYNC runs properly in all aspects.
    How can I enable the visibilty of the SYNC´ed bookmarks on ModernUI?

    You're using [http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/aurora/ Firefox Aurora], which is a pre-Beta build of Firefox. These builds may contain bugs that will eventually be fixed in the Beta or Release version of Firefox.
    In other words, Aurora is a test build that "isn't ready for prime time".
    If you don't get an answer here you could ask over at MozillaZine's [http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewforum.php?f=23 Firefox Builds forum].

  • Why bookmarks are not transferring when i sync

  • Bookmarks are not syncing

    Just install ios5, and bookmarks are not syncing

    On the iPad, go to Settings; iCloud; and turn Bookmarks to Off.  Then when you connect via iTunes, under Info; Other; this allows the Sync Bookmarks to be checked.  Don't ask me why it doesn't work via iCloud, but this should at least fix it.

  • I installed the new firefox sync on my two computers, but the bookmarks are not synchronising. How do I solve it?

    Hello,
    I recently installed the new version of firefox sync on my computers (by unlinking the old version, and creating a new account), but the bookmarks are not synchronising. One of the computer turns with Windows 7 and the other with Ubuntu 14.
    I created the account with the firefox on the Windows computer, and some things were well synchronized on the Linux computer (ie Addblock was installed), but the bookmarks on the Linux firefox are empty.
    Could you please help me to solve this problem?
    Thank you very much.

    Type '''about:sync-log''' in the URL bar and hit Enter.
    Do you have any Error Reports?
    If so, open the most recent report (check the date to make sure it is from the new version of Sync). Then copy and paste the contents of that report to http://pastebin.com/ and post the URL to "your New Paste" to this forum thread so that we can review that error log.
    ''Edit - whoops'', start with the Windows PC, then the Ubuntu box.

  • Bookmarks are not synchronizing.

    I just have to give up and build my own browser.
    Yea bookmarks are not synchronizing. That's basically it. I'm tired of having to wait and hope for updates for things that should be a standard feature. I know there is a lot of magic behind a browser, but all i really need are the bookmarks i can open anywhere.

    Hi ebichuhamster,
    Not a problem. Come to think of it, Xmarks syncs across all browsers, but let's fix sync first. If you open the sync options on each of the devices that are set up on the new sync, please see this to verify each are on the new sync: [[How to update to the new Firefox Sync]], you can make sure "Bookmarks" are checked.
    And if they are select sync now if there was a change. For debugging, it is actually not plural: 'about:sync-log' and these have to be turned on. By default however you should not have to do this and they are turned off as to not take up space, but to enable logs: in 'about:config' change the settings referred to here: [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Services/Sync/Getting_Started#Debugging_Sync]

  • Bookmarks are not showing up

    Local bookmarks and Sync'd bookmarks are not visible. I have reinstalled Firefox, tried to import *.json file, sync'd from another computer and restored from previous date. I can see the Bookmarks Bar and i can add bookmarks to it but not old bookmarks. any help is appreciated. thanks

    Problems with bookmarks and history not working properly can be caused by a corrupted places.sqlite database file.
    You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox Profile Folder.
