Now that I switched to Firefox, how do I get all my favorites that I saved on Internet Explorer to come over

When I switched over yesterday from internet explorer to firefox, I lost all of my favorite websites that I had bookmarked. Is there a way to click and convert them all over, or are they all lost?

  • How can I import all my favorites (including folders within) from internet explorer?

    In internet explorer my favorites are organised into folders but when I try to import these into firefox only the files that aren't in folders comes across, in this case 1.

    If you have problems with importing the IE Favorites in Firefox then export the favorites in IE to an HTML file and import that file in the Firefox Bookmarks Manager.<br />
    That way you also preserve any sorting that you may have done in IE with the Favorites and the favorites won't end up in a "From Internet Explorer" folder, but will be appended at the end of the Bookmarks Menu folder.
    * Export the favorites in IE to an HTML file (bookmarks.html): File > Import and Export
    * Import the HTML file in Firefox: Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Import HTML: From File
    See "Import from another browser" and "Import from file":

  • A website I was using is now blank, but only in Firefox - how do I get it back?

    I was using a website. I went to "x" out an ad at the bottom right side of the screen, and now that website it blocked. I have cleared my cookies and cache. Please advise.

    Are you using any extensions that can block content?
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

    You can remove all data stored in Firefox from a specific domain via "Forget About This Site" in the right-click context menu of an history entry ("History > Show All History" or "View > Sidebar > History") or via the about:permissions page.
    Using "Forget About This Site" will remove all data stored in Firefox from that domain like bookmarks, cookies, passwords, cache, history, and exceptions, so be cautious and if you have a password or other data from that domain that you do not want to lose then make a note of those passwords and bookmarks.
    You can't recover from this 'forget' unless you have a backup of the involved files.
    It doesn't have any lasting effect, so if you revisit such a 'forgotten' website then data from that website will be saved once again.

  • I had to re-install firefox, how can I get all my addons etc

    I had to get my PC repaired so I just re-installed Firefox. How can I get my add-ons etc. I thought that when I logged in all my stuff would show up.

    If you were using Firefox Sync, then you can sign into Firefox Sync again to get everything back: [[How do I set up Firefox Sync?|How do I set up Firefox Sync?]]
    If you were not using Firefox Sync, but you have a backup of your user profile, then you can restore from a backup: [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles|Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]

  • How do I get Flash to reload on second visit in Internet Explorer?

    I am trying to create a webpage, and am having a bit of an issue with Internet Explorer. I created the home page in Dreamweaver and have a Flash animation on that page. It plays in the page window, without opening a pop-up window. It is set to Autoplay and Loop, which is all well and good and the first time you load it, it works just fine. The problem is, if you go to another page and then navigate back to the home page, the animation doesn't restart, it just sits on the first frame. Internet Explorer is the only browser that has this issue, it works fine in all the others (Chrome, Safari, and Mozilla).
    So I am wondering what code do I need to put in to fix this problem? I have searched over the web and tried various methods, such as putting in coding to do no cache or trying to change the URL to create a random number with Flash, but so far nothing has worked. I could really use the help, as this is driving me crazy! Anybody know how to fix this problem? Thanks.

  • How do I get Adobe reader to work with Mozilla or internet explorer? I cannot open files unless I download to my desktop.

    When I try to read PDF files I get a message that says" The Adobe Acrobat Reader that is running cannot be used to view PDF files in a web browser. Exit and try again. This happens with bot Internet Explorer and Mozilla. I can only open if I download the document to my desktop.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I think when we got our windows 7.

  • How can I get my Flash movie to load correctly in Internet Explorer?

    I loaded an swf into an html. It loads fine in Safari, Firefox and Opera. However, in Internet Explorer the swf covers up part of the copy. I tried everything with the css to get it to work, but it nothing has helped. Among other things, I tried changing the z-index in the css, but that doesn't do anything.  Is there a specific code I need to add to my html regarding the importing of the flash movie that would be specific to IE?

    This thread should be in either the Flash Pro forum or the Dreamweaver forum.
    This is for Flash Player and Flash Player related issues, not Flash or browser or HTML issues.

  • I restored my phone but it restored to the only back up i had which was 2 months ago. Now none of the settings i have are up to date on what i had. How do i get all the text messages from that backup up to today?

    I tried to update my phone, but it died so i had to restore it. The only back up i had was from 2 months ago. How do i get all the settings back from that huge gap of me not syncing it?

    Please read before going through with this procedure.
    If you really want your contact back and you did not do another iCloud backap since you deleted some of your contacts, you can do a hard reboot on both devices with iClouded contacts by holding down the home and lock buttons on each of them for 10 seconds ignoring the slide to turn off thing. Make sure you have iCloud contact services off before doing so. You can then go through the whole set up process until you get up to the backup part. You then press to restore from an iCloud backup (make sure you choose the right backup for the right phone). If you didn't make an iCloud backup before the contact incident, you will have to use your two-month-old iTunes backups. Each phone should have their contacts the way they were from your last backup. You then go into Settings>iCloud>and turn off contacts. You then can choose if you want to keep your current contacts or not. Turn this off on both phones just incase you add another iCloud device to the mix later on. Now your contact lists are no longer linked (Caution: side effect may include lack of edit button). You may now add and delete contacts as you please without it happening on your other phone.
    Thank you for choosing Apple.

    Please see the bold.  If you're out of icloud storage, then you won't be able to backup to icloud unless you purchase more storage, but yet you said you backup to icloud.
    If you really did backup to icloud no data would be loss - sounds to me that it didn't backup since you had no more free icloud storage space.

    When I thing of the Thousands of dollars I have spent to get a 2000 song library and how Applle keeps screwing Windows users (no back-up of songs) I just think what a fool I was.

    I did think about that and if I have to I will do that, however there are about 50 songs. I have closed and reopened iTunes several times and I am sure that I have the latest version. It fails right away but I can click on the cloud download icon and download the song that it failed on ... therefore it is not that song "or any one song" causing the issue. Any ideas?

    Hello Maahk,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you would like to optimize your Photos storage. If you are using iCloud Photo Library on your iPhone, please read over the information in the attached article. 
    iCloud Photo Library FAQ - Apple Support
    Can I use iCloud Photo Library to save space on my device?
    iCloud Photo Library automatically keeps all your photos and videos in the original, high-resolution version. Follow these steps to choose how you store your photos and videos on your device:
    In iOS, tap Settings > iCloud > Photos or Settings > Photos & Camera, then select a storage setting.
    In OS X, click Photos > Preferences > iCloud, then select a storage setting. 
    If you turn on Optimize [device] Storage, iCloud Photo Library will automatically manage the size of your library on your device, so you can make the most of your device's storage and access more photos than ever. All of your original, full-resolution photos and videos are stored in iCloud while device-size versions are kept on your device. You can download the original photos and videos over Wi-Fi or cellular when you need them. 
    If you turn on Download Originals, iCloud Photo Library will keep your original, full-resolution photos and videos in iCloud and on your device. Download Originals is the default setting for iOS devices with the free 5 GB storage plan and for all Mac devices.
    Have a great day,
    Joe
