Where did my bookmarks in the html file go?

I exported my bookmarks to html. The file opened fine with FireFox and notepad and showed the bookmarks. I copied the file to a thumb drive and it still opened fine with FireFox or notpad. But, as soon as I eject the flash drive, and put it back in, the file no longer can be read or viewed. The same thing happens to the backup .json file. Now I've tried it with saving this page as an html file. It did the same thing.

Thanks, other files on the flash drive were readable, and I had always used the "safe removal" before removing the drive. But you got me looking at it some more and the flash drive did have some corrupt files on it. After repairing it, the bookmark html files work fine.

I had upgraded to firefox 3.0 years ago and lost my firefox 2.0 bookmarks. How do I retrieve them? I keep getting only one bookmark from the html file.

Years back I had installed Firefox 3.0 (at launch, so not beta) into a separate program folder. After installation, I expected to have my bookmarks saved. Recently I found out my bookmarks were in application data and I found out I had one profile. That meant that my firefox 2.0 bookmarks were replaced.
I read up on the FAQs and it stated that bookmark backups only save the previous 5 days or so, so I don't think they are usable though I have them saved. The bookmarks.html file in my profile shows only one bookmark after importing it into firefox 3.5 and firefox 2.0 (downgraded back to check it out), google chrome, and internet explorer. I still have the bookmarks.bak and bookmarks.html.bak files as well.
A little backstory before I got up to this point because it's a bit convoluted because I thought I could retrieve them like IE favorites which were easy:
1) Switched to Firefox 2.0 from Internet Explorer and got several hundred bookmarks.
2) Got HyperBookmarks add-on which bugged up and replaced my previous bookmarks folder though it stated in FAQs that my original Firefox 2.0 bookmarks were in a separate folder so I didn't worry about it.
3) Upgraded to Firefox 3.0 and it replaced all my bookmarks with nothing in bookmarks list. I thought it was saved because I installed Firefox 3.0 in a separate folder.
4) Retrieved 3.0 Bookmarks and Archived them, but wasn't able to find Firefox 2.0 Bookmarks (original) nor the HyperBK version, except in HyperBk Backups folder.

In the "Edit this Bookmark" window, use the 2nd drop-down button, that is to the right of the "Folder", to open a larger window that will allow more folder to appear. See the sloppy red arrow on the screenshot below.

Where is the bookmarks stored? I Install the Firefox once again since I upgrade my computer.Is there any folder just like "favourite"to store the html file? I really want to find out the bookmarks because actually i can't remember all the website that ar

Where is the bookmarks stored?
I Install the Firefox once again since I upgrade my computer.
And I try to move the bookmarks from the old computer to the new one.
But I can't find anyone of them.
Is there any folder just like "favourite" to store the html file?
I really want to find out the bookmarks because actually i can't remember all the website that are important to me~ URGENT!!!~THANKS~

You can move file named places.sqlite from your old profile to the new one. It contains bookmarks and browsing history.
Here's a knowledge base article about it: [[Recovering important data from an old profile]]
If you don't care about saving your current bookmarks, you can skip creating new profile (Firefox does it by itself at first run anyway).
I'd might suggest you to install addon https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2410/|Xmarks Bookmark and Password Sync]. It is a free web service which synchronizes bookmarks and (optionally) passwords with central server, and then to other computers, if you installed it on more. You may treat is as a backup too.

My Vostro is trashed. I salvaged the hard drive and have it in a cage. I was able to save my bookmarks as an HTML file. How can I import them into a new computer? I asked a similar question yesterday and the solution did not work.

I have the original hard drive in a cage (i.e., I can not boot to it or load applications from it). I can access any file on the old drive from the new computer. I have also saved the bookmark file as an html file. I was given a solution to import from the html file that does not work.
How can I get my old bookmarks moved to my nes hard drive?

I plugged my old drive into an identical Vostro and saved my bookmarks per the instructions. Later, when I check the file, it was in html format. While waiting for the replacement laptop to arrive, I put my old (Vostro) hard drive into a case so I could access the files. I have been able to launch web pages from the file bt accessing them through My Documents so I know the file is good. The problem is, I apparently need to convert them into a JSON file in order to use them. There is a set of instructions on the Mozilla/Firefox website but that method does not work.

Firefox when saving a "complete html" file is downloading a folder and "2" copies of the html file not one. One of these has the same name but "0" kb content

Hi. The only save options for a full html type file on Firefox is as "web page, complete" and as I say when saving with Firefox the program is saving the usual yellow folder with links and artwork files etc, but is saving 2 copies of the HTML file where on of these files is empty, won't open and gets locked to the destination it was saved to. This empty file can't be moved, and can't be deleted. When this is attempted it gives message "cannot delete (or "move" if this is the case) : Cannot read from the source file or disc."
To overcome this I now use Internet Explorer, dut prefer not to. I have also deleted Firefox from my system and re-installed it, but this did not help. How can I stop this doubling of saved files? and how can I delete the ones that are now fixed to my desktop? can you lease help?

You said, ''Would like to sort this one out...any clues?''
Maybe something here will help:

Files created in DW with slices, how can I email the html files to someone

Hello,
I was wondering if someone could help me please? I created my first website in DW CS4. I used Illustrator to create it, added slices, then did the rest in DW. My site is not live yet - I have not yet uploaded the files to the web host. However, I need to email the .html file to someone so that they can see what I have created so far for the site. But when I attach the .html files, the person I send them to cannot view them - when they open the file it is just a bunch of placeholders where the slices are and you can't see the web page at all. I am a newbie to web design so this is probably quite an ignoramus question. I appreciate any help anyone can give me!!

The best practice is to upload the site to a TEST folder on your remote server for debugging purposes. (yourdomain.com/TEST/index.html)
Then send your client an email with the URL so they can see the site. When you're done testing & debugging, remove the TEST folder from remote server.

The best audience for applets is people off the internet. 'People off the internet' might be using a computer that has no (what was it?) 'open.html' in the root of the C: drive. In fact (shock horror) they may not even be running Windows, and would therefore probably have no 'C:' drive at all.
If you do not intend to distribute this to people off the web, an application makes a lot more sense, but even then, you cannot rely on the document being there unless you 'put it there' (during installation, for instance).
As the other poster intimated, applets can load documents off the local disk as long as they are trusted. Here is an example*, but note that it is not so rash as to presume any particular path or file, and instead leaves it to the user to choose the document to display.
* The short code can be seen at SDNShare on the [Defensive Loading of Trusted Applets|http://sdnshare.sun.com/view.jsp?id=2315] post.
On the other hand, a sandboxed applet can load any document coming from its own server via URL, or get showDocument(URL) to work. In that case, the JRE must recognize that the URL is from its own server, so the best way to form URLs for applet use is via the URL constructor
new URL(getDocumentBase(), "path/to/open.html");That is how I form the URL in this [ sandboxed example of formatting source|http://pscode.org/fmt/sbx.html?url=/jh%2FHelpSetter.java&col=2&fnt=2&tab=2&ln=0]. Of course, in this case the applet loads the document, then parses the text to draw the formatted version, but the point is that an URL produced this way will work with showDocument(URL).
I am pretty sure showDocument() in an applet off the internet will work with an URL pointing to a foreign (not its own) server, but it will not be able to load documents off the end user's local disks.
I suggest a couple of things.
- Try to express this problem in terms of what feature it is that you want to offer the end user. Your question jumps directly to a bad strategy for achieving ..who knows what? An example of a feature is "Shows the applet 'help' files on pressing F1".
- A good way to indicate interest in a solution is to offer [Duke stars|http://wikis.sun.com/display/SunForums/Duke+Stars+Program+Overview] to match that interest.
Edit 1:
..and please figure out how to use the CODE tags.

How do I restore my bookmarks from an HTML file?

I have just installed Ubuntu 11.04 and I want to restore my bookmarks from an HTML file.
This used to be accessible via "Bookmarks-> Organise Bookmarks" but the "Organise Bookmarks" menu item no longer exists so I'm stymied.
This help system seems to think that it does exist, however, so please note that on my system, it does NOT. I suspect that hundreds, thousands, or even millions of new Ubuntu 11.04 users will be facing exactly the same problem.
I don't think users will be able to help with this one unless someone knows how to restore the "Organise Bookmarks" menu item. It's the only one that will do what I want and so there's no point recommending "Show All Bookmarks" as a solution. That doesn't work.
Finally, persuading this system that I really do have a new problem that isn't covered in the FAQs was a very irritating experience. I wonder if Chrome will know what to do with my "bookmarks.html" file?

Update to my previous posting. I just installed Chromium, and it took '''LESS than 10 seconds''' to import my bookmarks. Why would I waste any more time with Firefox?? I had intended to give Firefox 4 a chance to show me what improvements had been made, but who needs the grief. Bad move guys... bad move.

Why the html file doesn't change with applet ?

i am new to java , i get a problem when i am modifying a applet . i recompile it to .class file but did not change its name . and the .html file which use the applet doesn't change with it , it still shows the original style , even when i delete the .class file . it works until i changed the name of the source file and use the different .class file in html . it's troublesome if i need to modify the source file because i must change the name to get it . can you tell me why and how could i avoid this ?

I am new also & had a similar experience.
In my case it was aftercompiling and trying to refresh the browser to get it to display the new version of my applet. I got around this by holding Ctrl down and pressing F5 to refresh.
Also, some of the systems at university cause exactly the problem you describe. Not sure why it should work but we overcame it by placing our files in the JDK folder on those systems & it worked properly. May be worth a try.

Is there any way to have the page title NOT be the name of the HTML file

You might want a page title to be say "Digital Media Academy." You don't however really want the html file to be called "Digital%20Media%20Academy.html" Windows web browsers often have problem opening pages with spaces in the file name. On the other hand you don't really want the page title to be "DigitalMediaAcademy" because that looks kind of dumb. Any way around this.

The page is already not included in the nav bar, but
where do you set the page name to be different from
the file name? How can I set the name of the page,
such as the name of this page is "Apple - Support -
Discussions - Post Message:Reply," to be different
from the file name?
I think I probably misunderstood your question. You want the html "title," which appears at the top of a browser, to be independent of the name of the html file, right? I don't think that is possible in this version without manually editing the html after publishing. iWeb uses the page name given in the inspector for both the navigation bar link and the file name, replacing spaces by %20 in the latter because web servers don't allow spaces in file names.

Cannot read the html files

I cannot seem to make JavaHelp find my HTML files, although it has found my Map and XML files.
The structure is as follows:
- the XML files are in myclasspath/doc/onlinehelp
- the HTML files are in myclasspath/doc/onlinehelp/html
How should I reference them from my Map.jhm file?
Have I forgottoen any enviroment variables?
This is really urgent
Thanks
Bj?rn

The entries in your map file should take the form
<mapID target="target_string" url="html/filename.htm" />
so that the url includes the relative path from the directory where the xml files are.

Modifying the HTML files for a service

Hi All:
We are in SAP R/3 4.6c and EP 6.0. We will be using the standalone ITS for our ESS Services.
We would like to modify the standard delivered service for edit skills - PZ31_EWT.
What is the procedure for modifying the HTML files. Where can we see the HTML files associated with a service ?
Is it on the ITS side or via SE80?
Thanks
Rachel

Hi Rachel,
You've just about reached the limits of what I know about changing ESS ITS services I'm afraid.
I didn't see PZ31_EWT listed under Internet services either so Im guessing the ITS service PZ31 name remains unchanged. If you double click on the top level folder in the tree, called PZ31, the details of the ITS service are displayed. Its not obvious that you can do this as it just looks like a folder, but if you do and select the Parameters tab you can see if lists TRANSACTION=pz31 and WEBTRANSACTIONTYPE =EWT which sounds suspiciously similar to what you were expecting.
You could test this by putting some text in the PZ31 HTML template, publishing, and checking it is displayed.
You can (copy and) modify the templates with straight HTML and the Business HTML macro language, which is a bit of a black art but you can access the help via the 'Business HTML overview' button on the toolbar.
I found a sentence in my handover notes from an ESS guru that reads 'Customization to ESS page layout are not easily done. You need to copy and modify the ITS service and edit the business HTML templates'.
The only other way I know to modify ESS is through the SPRO transaction.
Thats about all I can tell you about ESS Im afraid!
Cheers,
Steve

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

How to display the HTML File Titles instead of File Names

Hello All,
I want to display the HTML file titles instead of File names in the Search Results. I've tried to give this command in the 'Visible Properties' in the 'SearchResourceRenderer' as:-
Visible Properties: rnd:displayTitle
However this is not working for me. If anyone has an idea of what to pass here or any other alternative to display the Titles.
Regards
Vaib

Summary of steps:
1) Standard Layout Set used: SearchResultLayoutSet
2) Create a new layout set using ADVANCED COPY
3) Change properties as you require
4) Next modify the search OTH file to reflect this newly created Layout Set (under KM > root > etc > oth > search.oth edit xml file property rndLaoutSet from SearchResultLayoutSet to MyCustomSearchResultLayoutSet)
5) Check in the document to complete the editing process if Edit Locally is used!
6) Lastly, activate the OTH file by
     Setting Debugging settings via Debugging Settings
     Performing a normal search
     Clicking Rendering information and then following link OTH Overview click on Reload
7) Reload above reloads the OTH file and performing search again will yield the desired result
8) To turn off the Rendering Information link remove the user id from Debugging Settings.
Cheers
