Why do I only get about half my EI favourites when imported into Firefox?

I have tried to import my IE8 favourites twice into Firefox. On both occasions only about the first half of them appear in Firefox. Is there as size limit on favourites, or some other problem here?

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.
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

I can not get imac w/Snow Leopard's address book to sync with ipad 1correctly? I only get about half the contacts?

I have tried repeatedly to get my address book on my imac w/ snow leopard to sync to my ipad 1 correctly and have failed every time. I only get about 1/3 the number of contacts and they don't all even correlate with the ones on the imac. Like one will have full middle name and the other only the initial. I don't know where itunes is getting these contacts but doesn't match those in my address book. I keep telling itunes to replace the contacts on the ipad with those on my mac but it doesnt work. Can't do it with icloud cause snow leopard doesn't support, it still wants to use the non existant mobile me format. Hope someone can help. I added the all amnually once before but they screwed up when I sync each time.

Thanks for your response Ernie. You are correct in that whenever you type a series of letters, Address Book (as it always has) finds every single thing with that combination of letters - Names, businesses, adjectives, people's dogs' names, letters in product serial numbers, etc. This is useful for finding a subject on the Web, or finding all documents related to 'iPhoto' on your Mac, etc., but not useful, quick or convenient when trying to find one person to call in your Address Book (which is what people use Address Book for).
What is DIFFERENT in the Snow Leopard version, is that the ability to type one letter to instantly go to last names with that letter has been removed. Previously, you could easily find 'Bill Tilman' in one second by simply typing 'T'. Now you get every word that starts with T and all the words in the card that have a T in them. If you type out a full name like 'Bill', it finds every person named Bill. No one would ever want to find all their contacts named Bill to call them. You could type out the full last name 'Tilman', but there again you are forced to type out a complete name to do a search. It would actually be quicker to scroll down and find it manually. The ability to type a single letter to find the last name (or business name) of a contact you needed to call, was much quicker and easier than having to type out the entire name.

Paid for 150/65 but I'm only getting about half.....What can I do?

Hello,
This is my first post on the Verizon forums and I need some help optimizing my internet speed/router etc.... I recently upgraded my Fios from 25/25 to 150/65. I live in a fairly new home and my house has all the wiring needed for this speed. Also, the Verizon tech replaced all my equipment including my router to Gen 3 Actiontec MI424WR. However, although my speed is super fast wireless avg. 75mbps and wired avg. 89mbps I am not anywhere near the 150mbps' that I am paying for. How can I optimize my connection? Or what could be holding back the speed?
Also, I am a gamer. I play a lot of games online mainly Black Ops 2. I tried to create a static IP for my PS3 and port forward the ports indicated on portforward.com to optimize my playing, but my PS3 is only averaging about 6mbps down and 2 up. I haven't tried connecting to it with a wire and will do so shortly once I have the proper length cable, but my other wireless equipment around the house I can get about 35mbps down easily. Hfas anyone tried opening the ports on this new Gen 3 Actiontech MI424wr router?
Thank you for the help.
Mark

The best way to get your full speed (and the only garunteed way) is to hardwire your machine.
If you have a 2nd actiontec lying around, you can do that easily by hooking it up like this
If you HAVE to do wireless for that area, then you have to realize that there are a LOT of things that interfere with the signal strength of a wireless antenna. That router can do a potential wireless of 130mb. BUT that is under immaculate and pristine conditions. Everything minus's from that high point. So:
Distance over ten feet begins to degrades that signal
Each wall the signal travels through degrades that signal (double insulated walls are worse double paned windows are worse)
If you have multiple story's in your home, Floor's will degrade the signal
Baby Monitors operating on 2.4ghz range will degrade that signal
Blutooth devices will degrade that signal
2.4ghz Cordless phones will degrade that signal
5ghz Cordless phones will degrade that signal in standby mode (in standby they drop to 2.4)
Microwave Ovens will degrade that signal
CFL Lightbulbs will degrade that signal
Competing Wireless Routers will degrade that signal.
So with wireless, you have do a few things to get the BEST out of it.
Have the router elevated to the height of where the PC's Sit. That means if your PC is on a desk, have your router sitting at that same height.
Experiment with the router standing upright or laying flat.
Adjust the antenna's
Try to place the router in the most central spot you can (pictures below will help explain what I mean)
Make sure the drivers for your wireless device are the most current drivers (check manufacturers website)
Experiment with channels 1, 6 and 11 in your router settings. (instructions are below)
So here are the instructions for the last one, which I would do first. open a browser, and go to http://192.168.1.1
user name is admin. and the password is most likely the serial number found on the service tag of your VZ router unless you changed it. Once you login succesfully, go to the top and hit wireless, then on the left basic security. then go to option 3 which is channel 1, 6 and 11 and are the only channels you should try.
So it will likely be set to auto, change it to 11 and put the check for keep settings even after reboot (Directly under the channel) and then hit apply. after you hit apply, test your connection out, if you notice a difference, leave it like that until the problem happens again, and if it happens again, go back into the router, and try channel 6, test it out. and then finally 1 if the first two don't work.
Also take a look at page 2 of Actiontec's Wireless PDF File. It gives you some idea's with regards to position and orientation of where the router sits and how it can best be positioned for maximum coverage.

Why can i only get wi fi connection to my i pad when my laptop is on ? my laptop is connected to router by wifi not a cord.

Why can I only get wi fi on my ipad when my computer is on?. My laptop is connected to router by wifi not a cord.

Yeah, that's what I ended up doing. It just wasn't worth the hassle. I got a good (standard size) monitor for about half the price of the old one, so I'm not too disappointed. Thanks for your help though

Hi kimcinma!
Your previous purchases are saved on iCloud even if you bought them on another computer. If you can't find them on your current computer, you might need to unhide them. Go to iTunes preferences, and click on Store Preferences. Then click the box for "show iTunes in the Cloud purchases". Then click on OK, and everything you've ever bought from iTunes on that Apple ID will show up in your library. You will need to download them from iCloud first before you can synch them to your iPod Classic. To do this, click on the little cloud with the arrow in it next to your song, and it will download to your computer. When you have the music that you want downloaded, plug in your iPod and synch away. Hope this helps!

I am having problems with my ipod syncing all of my videos to my ipod from my itunes playlist, it will only sync about half even though they are all checked

i am having problems with my ipod syncing all of my videos to my ipod from my itunes playlist, it will only sync about half even though they are all checked

I assume there is more than ample space remaining on your iPod to hold all the videos? Are you getting any error messages during the sync process?
Do all of these videos play okay in iTunes? Is the sync only checked songs and videos option enabled from under the iPod's Summary tab?
What other setting do you have enabled from under the iPod's video configuration tab in iTunes?

Why am I only getting regular Photoshop from Creative Cloud???

Installing Photoshop CS6 on my Mac using Creative Cloud. Photoshop CS6 comes in regular not extended. Isn't extended the version offered? Why am I only getting regular Photoshop???

Hi Juergen,
I'll forward your concern to our Product Managers. I understand that it can be frustrating to see features disabled after licensing the product. With the addition of subscription pricing, there's added questions as to what is included with each option. We're working to clearly communicate the offerings but there's more to be done.
For a little more background, Adobe has always enabled the trial license as Photoshop Extended since it was introduced in CS3. The basic reason being with a single installer, one can try the full range of Photoshop features, then with a serial number enable what's desired. We use other marketing material to try and differentiate the features that are only enabled for the Photoshop Extended version.
This solution has its problems, and distributing separate installers for Photoshop and Photoshop Extended has other problems.
My basic cheat sheet after activation looks like this:
Single installer package for all offerings
Trial license — Photoshop Extended
Photoshop Extended (perpetual license) — Photoshop Extended
Photoshop (perpetual license) — Photoshop
CS Subscription (Photoshop) — Photoshop
Creative Cloud Membership — Photoshop Extended
Creative Suite editions (perpetual license): (http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/buying-guide.html)
          Design Standard — Photoshop
          Design and Web Premium — Photoshop Extended
          Production Premium — Photoshop Extended
          Master Collection — Photoshop Extended
Again, I'm sorry this isn't clearer and you had a bad experience.

steve

Why am I only getting 0.24mbs download speed on my ipad over my wifi when my Microsoft laptop is working massively faster?

Why am I only getting 2 octaves of sounds in EVB3?
The presets used to fill the entire keyboard, tried messing with some of the settings but didn't see anything that would fill out the rest of the keys.
Any ideas?

n/m, I figured it out. switched midi channels to "All" seemed to fix it.

Time Machine Back Up - I only get about 3 weeks.

Time Machine Back Up - I only get about 3 weeks.
Is there a setting to tell it to go farther back or is it a space issue on my external hard drive?
If so what external hard drives / sizes are recommended? I'd like to go back a few months or longer.

Do you use virtualization software, such as VMware, Parallels, or VirtualBox?
The virtualization software creates a large virtual-disk container that is constantly changing, so it has to be backed up every time Time Machine runs. That will quickly fill up any backup destination.
You should exclude the virtual-disk file(s) from your Time Machine backups. To do that, click the Options button in the Time Machine preference pane. Back up the files on the virtual disk from within the guest system, using a native backup application.
A compromise solution is to create a "snapshot" of the virtual machine in the virtualization software (not a Time Machine snapshot.) That will give you a single large file that never changes and only has to be backed up once. All the subsequent changes will be stored in a new file that's initially much smaller, but will grow over time. You should still exclude that file from TM backup. If you ever need to restore the VM from Time Machine, you'll have a working setup, which will make it easy for you to restore the rest of the data from within the guest system.
Another common cause of large TM snapshots is native OS X disk images. If you store a lot of data on one or more writable disk images, they should be in "sparsebundle" format, which will be backed up much more efficiently than any other format. Also be aware that disk image files are not backed up at all while the image is mounted. Make sure you unmount the image often so it can be backed up. If you ever restore, you will, of course, lose all changes made since the last backup. Consider eliminating large read/write disk images from your workflow, if possible.
