Where is the Bookmark backup/restore function ?

wchapgm: Please ref cor-el's response. Pretty informative.
And, Thank You both for your kind attention and assistance.
Lastly, note that there seems 2-B another issue.
The backup file format used in the older version isn't recognized by the new version !
So, unless I can find a work-around, I'll have to resort to some "manual transfers" of those resources.

  • Can't find the bookmarks backup/restore menu in the new version ..

    I can't find the bookmarks backup/restore menu, or the organize bookmarks menu at all in your new version. For starters, couldn't even find the bookmark icon on the right hand side of the navigation bar as instructed in your instructions.

    "Organize Bookmarks" has been renamed to "Show All Bookmarks" in the bookmarks menu.

  • Where is the bookmark all tabs function?

    I recently updated from a very early version of FF to 13.0.1 and the bookmark all tabs in the Bookmarks menu is gone. I always use that function so i desperately need it.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thank you!

    The "Bookmark All Tabs Function" didn't dissapear. It was... NEEDLESSLY REMOVED by some very unwise and unthinking individuals.
    There is No RATIONAL Reason to do away with a highly useful function that MILLIONS of Firefox users ALREADY Knew How to Find, and WERE ALREADY USING, without ever having to think about it. !
    Anyone New to Firefox will (logically) look under "Bookmarks "on the "Menu Bar " for... Things that Relate to Bookmarks. This ORIGINAL Layout was... Simple, Logical, Obvious, Intuitive, and Easy to Find !
    Switching to Control+Shift+D is... NOT Simple, or Logical, or Obvious, or Intuitive. AND, I had to... WASTE CONSIDERABLE TIME trying to Find how to get the functionally that was in Firefox... From The Beginning, and Used By Millions of Users.
    I trade stocks online (daily) and I USE a "Screen Capture" app Multiple Times a Day, Which ALSO USES Control+Shift+D to make a Screen Capture. So, when I Need to Save Multiple Tabs, I now have to shut the screen capture app down, do the Control+Shift+D, and then open the screen capture app again.
    All of this because the people at Firefox have become Downright COMPULSIVE about FORCING... NEEDLESS, CONFUSING, Un-Thinking, Mindless, and Destructive changes to the Layout and Functionality of the platform that causes MILLIONS of Users to... WASTE MILLIONS of MAN Hours to try to figure out how to use something that... They Already Knew How to Use !
    In searching for a solution to this Needless Problem, I ran across a forum where people were Needlessly searching for a solution to this Man Made Problem, the "Moderator" gives the Control+Shift+D "Solution", Offers No Rational for the Needless Change, and then gos on to say that He Will Be GLAD when this functionality is... REMOVED COMPLETELY !
    I assume that the management at Firefox would like to have their browser as widely accepted and used by "Enterprise" as possible. If so, this sort of un-thinking Change just for the sake of change, needs to... Stop.
    I have run two national companies, and I can assure you that I would Go To Considerable Lengths to AVOID Any Software that my company would have to PAY employees to stop constructive work just to constantly Re-Learn how to use the software, not to mention Endless Updates and Bug Fixes. There can be very large sums of money involved in such Avoidable Wastes of Productivity. These are some of the reasons why companies go so long before "updating" to new Microsoft releases, whose stock has been flat for yhe last 10 years. ( and is now facing some Real Competion.)
    The Firefox people are always pushing updates, which are good for security reasons, but the unending changes to the GUI and the Functionality are Not Appreciated. They are despised for very real and rational reasons.
    If you will through your own forums, and do a few web searches, you will find that users around the world have gone from looking forward to Firefox updatees (in the early releases), to avoiding them like the plague, or switching to other browsers completely.
    Someone once said: "If it ain't Broke, Don't Fix it."
    Someone else said: "The only thing worse than Being Wrong, is... Staying Wrong."
    I'm saying that if you find that you have shot yourself in the foot...
    1. Stop Shooting... IMMEDIATELY !
    2. FIX Your Foot
    3. Take SERIOUS MEASURES to Make Certain that You DON'T... Shoot Yourself in the Foot Again !
    Give the users a Firefox that they are Comefortable With and don't have to Constantly Mess With, and you will be will on your way to wide Acceptance, and Loyalty by everyone, including the "enterprise" world.
    Leave the "tweaks" alone. These can be supplied by your Ad-on community, and the users will either accept them or not. The Customer is always right.
    NEVER, EVER, EVER, REMOVE a FUNCTIONALITY Unless it is a SECURITY THREAT ! You WILL Make a LOT of People Mad if you do, and you will Destroy what Loyalty that hasn't already been lost.

  • In Firefox 4, where is the "Bookmark ALL Tabs" function? I really need this function and have downgraded back to F3, having not found it in 4.

    Not sure what extra details to provide past what I have already asked. Thanks for the help, though.

    Some menu entries are hidden by default and only appear if you use the keyboard to open the menu.
    "Bookmark All Tabs" and "Bookmark All Tabs" in the Bookmarks menu are among them.<br />
    You can see the difference if you use Alt+F or Alt+B to the File and Bookmarks menu and compare that to what you see if you use the mouse to open the menu after you have made the menu bar visible by pressing Alt or by pressing F10.
    * "Bookmark This Page" and "Bookmark All Tabs" no longer show in the Bookmarks menu unless you open the Bookmarks menu via the keyboard (Alt + B).
    * "Bookmark This Page" can be accessed via the right-click context menu of that browser page.
    * "Bookmark All Tabs" can be accessed via the right-click context menu of a tab on the tab bar.

  • Where it the bookmarks folder located on my hard drive? I want to copy to a cd to save them.

    Where is the bookmarks folder on my hard drive? I want to copy them to a cd to back them up. I have a lot of saved bookmarks that I do not want to lose. I know in MS that it is under the favorites folder, but I cannot find a bookmark folder.
    == This happened ==
    Not sure how often
    == n/a

    One file named '''places.sqlite''' in your Profile folder, which also contains your browsing history.

    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.

  • I am using FireFox 4. Where is the "Bookmark All Tabs-" feature. I would like to save my Tabs for a later session. The selection is not on the menu when I right-mouse click or go to the Bookmarks feature of the Menu.

    Missing "Bookmark All Tabs…" feature which was in previous versions of FireFox 3.x. If you right-mouse click on a neutral part of the Browser window, there would be choice of "Bookmark this page" or "Bookmark All Tabs…". I have been unable to find it either in the sub-menu or the BOOKMARK selection from the Menu Bar.

    What do you mean by Tabs sub-menu is it right-clicking on a tab ?
    I know that "ctrl-shift-D" still work.
    I know that a right-click on a tab gives the "Bookmark all Tabs" function.
    But I would like to see it back in the Bookmarks menu. (which is its logical place)
    Because today the choice only disappeared from the menu as it is still reachable through keyboard shortcut or through mouse right-click on a tab
    but tomorrow it will totally disappear and personally I don't want that as this is one of my favorite functionality.
    Tank you for your understanding !

  • Where is the "do not restore" option?

    Where is the "do not restore" option? I read a review somewhere that said it actually works in ML - but where is it? I can't find it in System Prefs.

    It's disguised as "Close windows when quitting an application" on the General tab of System Preferences.

  • Where is the ipad backup kept

    where is the ipad backup kept

    <Profile>\<AppData>\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
    And on the assumption that your supplementary question is "It's taking up too much room on my C:\ drive, how do I move it?"...
    You can redirect <Profile>\<AppData>\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup to a folder on another drive using NTFSLink (shell ext., might only work on XP) or Junction (cmd line tool).
    In essence you move the existing folder to a new location, create an empty folder where the old one used to be, then get the operating system to link the two togther and silently redirect any file operation on the old location through to the new one.

  • Can the bookmarks be portable to other Macs and if so, where is the bookmark file found?

    Would like to coordinate bookmarks from one Mac to another. Can I just setup my master bookmarks on my MBP, then move that library file wherever it lives to another Mac? Where do the bookmark files reside?

    Hi Thomas
    if you want an exact replica of the bookmarks, including the bookmarks bar - copy
    Home/Library/Safari/Bookmarks.plist to the same folder on the second mac, with Safari quit.
    If you want to add to those already there - it's the same file, but use Safari - File - Import Bookmarks... on mac #2
    this will create a new 'collection' in Bookmarks containing all those on mac #1, but won't erase any existing ones.

  • Where did the iPhone Calendar list function(s) go with iOS7? The Calendar has gone all 'spread sheet' on me and definitely not user friendly. Please advise.

    Where did the iPhone Calendar list function(s) go with iOS7?  The Calendar has gone all 'spread sheet' on me. If you select an item (grey dot) from the month display it will open up the 'spread sheet' at the current time of day, not necessarily when the calendar entry takes place.  I liked iOS6 where you could turn your iPhone to landscape mode and get that special 'spread sheet' feel if that's what you're into.  Has a 'List' presentation been removed from the iPhone Calendar with iOS7?

    The List view is displayed by tapping the Search magnifying glass.

  • HT1420 Where is the "authorize this computer" function?

    Where is the "authorize this computer" function in the iTunes store?

    There's a couple of ways to get through to the authorisation controls in the 11.0.x versions.
    The control is in the Store menu, but first (if you're using iTunes versions 11.0.x) you might need to bring up the menu bar to see the Store menu.
    If you're using 11.0.x, click on the wee boxy icon up in the top-left corner of your iTunes to see the "Show Menu Bar" control, as per the following screenshot:
    Then you'll find the control in the Store menu:
    Altrenatively, if you don't want to bring up the menu bar, it's still possible to get into the authorise controls via nested menus accessible from the wee boxy icon. Here's a screenshot of where to find them:
