Where did my bookmark from IE9 go?

When I downloaded FF it asked me if I wanted to import my bookmarks from IE. The default was yes and I left it that way. Now I can't find hide nor hair of my bookmarks. The help questions online haven't helped. [email protected]
Why didn't it copy them over like it said it would?

You can usually find the imported IE Favorites in a folder ("From Internet Explorer") at the bottom of the Bookmarks Menu folder (Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks).
If you can't find them in the "From Internet Explorer" folder then try this:
* Export the favorites in IE to an HTML file (bookmarks.html): File > Import and Export
* Import the HTML file in Firefox: Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Import HTML: From File

IPhoto 6 "found" old photos - where did they come from?

When I opened iPhoto 6 for the first time, it updated my iPhoto library just fine. In the process a dialog opened saying it found 134 photos from somewhere, and asked if I wanted to import them. When I said YES, it created a new album and imported those 134 photos into it.
The photos ended up being old photos (2-4 years old) that I thought I had deleted a long time ago, many of my ex-wife during holidays and a vacation 3 years ago! Where did they come from? Needless to say, my new fiancee wondered why I had old photos of the ex! I thiought they were gone.
I used Spotlight to search for "IMG_0...) and found many old photos I had deleted! I do not have an old iPhoto libraray on my PowerBook G4, but the photos were still there in folders, deep inside iPhotos filing system. I deleted all the ones I needed to, all by hand within the Finder.
What happened?

I had well over 2,000 photos recovered... Also ranging from 5 years old to this past month.
There was no clear answer but the photos were recovered in large chunks (300 from December, 400 from March, 600 from January, etc...)..
The entire time I has iPhoto 5, it never worked properly (always crashed) so a lot of these photos clearly were photos not properly saved in iPhoto 5.
However, I don't see them in my main library. How do I move them from recovered to the Library?

To check your S.M.A.R.T status open disk utility and click on your drive and then click on the info icon.

When I click the Sections button then click on the 1st page I get a page that is titled "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet"! Where did it come from and how do I get rid of it. I have tried deleting and "dont save" but it comes back.

In Pages when I click the 'Sections' button then click on the 1st page I get a page that is titled "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet"! Where did it come from and how do I get rid of it? I have tried deleting and "dont save" but it comes back. It is a full page in some unknown language. The only thing I can decifer is 'cupy uf cak'. Rdal

Roger,
The icon is +Sections, not just Sections, as in "Add a Section". When you click that icon you get a section break and and a new section template, complete with preformatted text called placeholder text. The reason "Lorem ipsum" is there is so you can see what the format looks like. The reason that it is Latin gibberish is so you won't get hung up on, or distracted by, what it says. It's just a display of format. Select the "Lorem ipsum" text and start typing your content.

If you take a screenshot (Press the home button and Lock button at the same time), does it appear on the screenshot? Zoom in on the screenshot and see if it's still there.
If not, then your display is failing. I would recommend taking it to an Apple Store if you can, if you can't then to an authorised Apple reseller.
If it does appear on the screenshot when you zoom into the spot, then it's a really weird software issue! You might have to backup and restore the device.
Let me know!

Where did Lion Go from the app store?

Where did Lion Go from the app store? it's gone. I my MacBook Pro can't run Mountain Lion but it could run Lion. But it's gone!

If you need to purchase Lion call 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775. Ask for a Sales Representative. They will check your Apple ID, and email you a code and instructions. The cost is $29.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download.

Either you enabled the guest user, or you enabled Find My Mac, which requires there to be an active guest account for a thief to log into, so that they'll connect to the internet and allow you to locate it.

"Boot OSX" drive, where did it come from?

I have an intel xserve with 1 80gb drive (for booting) and 2 750bg drives mirrored(via software) as my DATA drive.
After I initially set this up, there was one "BOOT" drive and one "DATA" drive on the desktop.
I recently logged into the server via ARD and noticed there was a third drive now, named "Boot OSX".
I, nor any of my staff, installed or created this drive(volume).
It appears to be part of the mirror raid, but where did it come from???

FWIW, I saw this shortly after installing Leopard and initially thought it was an external drive I set up as backup. It was only later that I realized that I didn't have the external drive plugged in when I saw "Boot OSX" on my desktop.
Tonight, I saw it again, googled, and found this thread. Could this have anything to do with Software Update? Software Update let me know I needed to install some updates. I clicked on details and ended up minimizing the application to install them later. After twiddling around with some other things I noticed the "Boot OSX" on my desktop, again. I went ahead and let Software Update "do it's thing" and after a reboot, like the other posters in this thread, it was gone.
So ... as I asked, earlier, could this have something to do with Software Update?

BaseSystempkg folders? Where did these come from?

Hello everyone,
This morning I formatted my hard drive and reinstalled Leopard from my DVD disc. After installing OS X I noticed three folders in my Macintosh folder, BaseSystempkg.146tc7TE9, BaseSystempkg.... I have reinstalled Leopard OS X before and have never noticed these folders. Where did they come from and should I be concerned?

Those folders appear to have been left behind by the Mac OS X 10.5 installer, and can safely be deleted. They were supposed to have been cleaned up after the installation.

Trojan Troj/ByteVer-G found. Where did it come from?

Sophos anti-virus found this little bugger (Troj/ByteVer-G) in my Mac. It's a Windows-only trojan stored in the java cache folder. I'd like to know where it came from. I do not download pirated software, I don't click suspicious links on Web pages, I do not receive spam or strange email attachments... where did it came from?

It could have come from some random web site and/or ad.
It could simply be an error on the part of Sophos.
The easiest way to get rid of the problem is get rid of Sophos.
