Where are bookmarks and bookmarks toolbar saved?

I lost part of my hard disk and have to recreate it from a backup. I have reinstalled Firefox but need to get the Bookmarks and Bookmarks Toolbar from my backup. If I know where they are stored I can copy them across to the new version.
Could someone advise in what folders they are stored? And any other files I may need to bring across? I'm using v5
Bob

Wow, thanks very much, cor-el!! I didn't know that feature existed. The only thing I didn't see restored were the unsorted Bookmarks. However thy were among the least important. I got back 280 plus folders and their Bookmarks.
Now, what about the last/second question, pasted here:
Then, whether recovered or not, how do I create separate instances of Firefox, that do not share any files? I don’t mind if the add-ons/extensions, and scripts are duplicated, but I can do that separately.
Also, “firefox.exe –p”, which worked previously, now will not work. The error message is:
"Windows cannot find ‘firefox.exe’. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again."
Thanks again,
Steve

Where are role and administrator settings saved?

We have had issues in the past that have caused us to have to
re-setup our site, including all administrative settings and all
roles and users. Surely all of this is saved somewhere. If we just
knew where, we could backup the info for an easier restore if
further problems ensue.
Anyone know how to backup site settings?

I got the following reply on a separate forum:
quote:
For a website that has been administered by Contribute
(Publishing server is not enabled), you would find an _mm folder in
the website root on the remove server. This is a contribute
specific folder and it contains the administrative settings, role
information and users.
For CPS managed sites, the _mm folder still holds the
information about the administrative settings and role information.
The user information of the sites are stored in the Database folder
of CPS. The Database folder can be found in the following location,
<CPS Install Path>\Database.

not right in front of me right now, but in documents and settings\yourusername\application data\adobe.... somewhere in there is a folder called something like "workspace settings". you need to have view hidden files and folders and view system files turned on in explorer's tools menu to view the application data folder structure.

I upgraded my iPhone 4 from iOS 3.3.5 to iOS 5.0 and lost all my photos on the camera roll. Where are they and can I retrieve them?

I upgraded my iOS 3.3.5 to 5.0 on my iPhone 4 and lost all photos on camera roll. Where are they and can they be recovered?

Have you been using your phone as recommended? If so, you've been importing photos in your camera roll onto your computer for safe keeping. Just as you would with a standalone digital camera. Your photos would then reside safely on your computer for archival.
While camera roll photos ARE part of the backup, not everything always goes smoothly as you've seen, which is why the recommendation to import photos as soon as possible to your computer.
If you have a recent backup of your iPhone, you can restore and hopefully many of your photos will be on this backup. Any photos or data added to your phone since this last backup are, of course, gone forever.

Ok, so I think I have found the cause of the problem.
I went to Tools -> Add Ons -> Plug -Ins
Under plug ins I found the zonealarm spy blocker plug in stub
Attached are images of enabled, disabled.
How do I get rid of that space all together, what I mean is, instead of having to choose between a "black space" and a "lego piece space", I want no space.

They will only be where you put them. They do not magically appear in new places.
Have you copied them from your old computer to your new one?

Where are Answers and Dashboards stored?

If we deliver answers and dashboards to customers and they customize it further, how can they upgrade to next release's dashboard and answers?
I want to know where are dashboards and answers stored so that we can provide an upgrade script.
Edited by: user732932 on Nov 17, 2009 10:58 AM

Hi User,
If a user creates queries and dashboards they are stored in the Catalog, this is in the OracleBIData>Web>Catalog folder. If you drill down into thsi folder you eventually come to the individual xml files.
The repository, (.rpd) is in the OraceBI>Server>Repository folder, the two can be maintained independantly. If your customer wants new data sources or tables adding to their RPD, you can merge these changes using the Admin tool, any changes here will not affect existing content in the dashboards, as long as the existing presentation layer is not altered. Assuming they do not maintain the rpd themselves, they could just send you an existing one for you to edit then replace theirs?
What it sounds liek you are saying though, is that they will have added queries and dashboards to the web catalog, and that you will then add more queries and dashboard pages to a development catalog, in this case it's very easy to copy and paste new files from one catalog to the other using the catalog manager. Ther is no need to touch the actual xml. NEVER copy a new catalog over an existing catalog, if you are replacing the whole catalog, back it up then delete it from the Catalog folder and paste in the new one.
If you are upgrading the version of OBIEE, none of these items should be affected, make sure you back-up first.
I hope this clears it up.
Regards
Ed

Where are sound and sharing settings stored in plist on mac mini?

Hi,
Does anyone know where are sound and sharing preferences stored in plist on mac mini on OS 10.8?
I want to auto-configure these settings for a bunch of computers instead of manual configuration through the system preferences menu.
Anyone has any advice?
Thanks.

I just bought a movie and a season of childrens cartoons they are now gone off my ipad. Where are they and how can I get them back?

I just bought a movie and a season of childrens cartoons they are now gone off my ipad. Where are they and how can I get them back?

Did you download them direct to your IPad or to your computer. If so unless you have synced your iPad with your computer since you downloaded they are still on your Ipad unless you deleted them or if they were rentals the time ran out.
To check on your iPad launch the iPod APP on your Ipad if a movie listing does not show then click on the iPad button under your library list column and it should then show your movies etc
Or launch the Video App and look for them there
if you have downloaded them on your computer they will show up in iTunes the cartoons i suspect will show under TV and the Movie under Movies.
A rented item expires 30 days after you rent it or 24 hours after you begin playing it, whichever comes first. Expired rentals are deleted automatically. After you transfer a rental to your iPad etc, it is removed from your iTunes library.
Outright puchases are obviously yours to keep.
Hope this helps

Google seems to change their login security occasionally, and apps that assume it will work a particular way get left out in the cold till they are updated, since the login process is hard-coded into the app.
Here is the automated e-mail I received today from Google when tried to upload a movie using iMovie.

I lost all of my contact with yesterdays update. Where are they and why did this happen?

What update? There was nothing released yesterday relating to iCloud.
Where have you lost your contacts from? Your computer, your phone, iCloud.com?
If they are no longer in any of those places, you'll need to restore them from your most recent backup.

Incomplete profile page: Where are firstname and lastName?

Hi,
How to retrieve the firstname lastname in Webcenter Portal (11.1.1.8) UserProfile object, we used all the expressions but firstname lastname always comes blank/empty.
First Name: #{webCenterProfile[securityContext.userName].firstName} 
Middle Name: #{webCenterProfile[securityContext.userName].middleName} 
Last Name: #{webCenterProfile[securityContext.userName].lastName} 
I use Open DS as the LDAP and the first attribute in LDAP is cn and the lastname attribute is sn, we want to get the values of these when we call #{webCenterProfile[securityContext.userName].firstName}.
I found one archived thread where the same question is asked but without any solution documented.

Where are Excel Add-in options saved ?

Hi,
Please, could anyone tell me where are Excel Add-in options saved for each worksheet ?
In the Excel file ? Registry ? File system ?
Regards

I think Sean might be right about the last value, but they are also stored with the woorkbook as a named range. If you go to insert->name->define you should see a series of named ranfes starting with ess, I don't have excel opened in from of me, but I think one of them is essoptions. It has a string of numbersand strings following it. Each position reflects one of the options. it looks something like A2100000000010101000001100020_0000

All my bookmarks and personalized start page are GONE. Where are they and how do I get them back?

I opened Firefox & was told it had automatically updated to 3.5 (yes that is what it said). ALL my bookmarks, my bookmarks toolbar and my other two toolbars are GONE, my personalized home page is GONE. How do I get them back? VERY frustrated with Firefox which has been crashing a LOT lately, and several other updates have taken away my personalized home page. Why can we not keep these even tho you update?? Loosing my bookmarks is NOT ok with me. My Xmarks and delicious are Missing... HELP!
== This happened ==
Just once or twice
== Firefox auto updated to version 3.5. It was ok yesterday

OK. It was Firefox 3.5.x that was on autoupdate (which I stopped now so I have to be asked before updating) on a Mac Book Pro (31/2
yr. old but updated with more Memory & larger hard drive (not sure I have that right, but now is 3GB Memory and 250GB hard drive Intel Core 2Duo). Using several places from the link cor-el (above) gave me, I finally found a copy of my bookmarks and have them back.
While trying to find my personalized homepage, I went to a google add-on for finance after adding several other items to a new inprogress homepage, and out of the blue, my old homepage shows up when I click on the google finance gadget! I could not believe it. And all my other stuff was on there. I immediatley saved it to my Bookmarks, to my idisk and remade it my homepage for igoogle.
Now, how do you explain that? Anyway, I am now back and good to go, just scared to update to the FF 3.6x version for fear of similar problem.
The only thing missing now is the 2nd toolbar that I don't remember what it was so guess I won't miss it. The other was the NPR one which I got back from NPR website.
Thanks folks!
