A previous version of Firefox points to the latest version installed on a separate drive, missing Favorites

Could Hello, please I have some assistance with the following?

I had installed on the same partition as the windows that I started from firefox. Due to an error, that this partition would no longer boot and I had to install clean windows and firefox on a separate disk.

I have managed to get the partition works again and you can access all the files on it again. Unfortunately when I load firefox on the partition previously failed it seems to load up to the same version I have installed recently. None of my old bookmarks are in the menu which is what I'm trying to access. I looked here for help and the following does not apply to me...

-There is no record of profiles in the old partition so I can't find Places.sqlite.
-Troubleshooting > folder show advanced towards the application data on the new installation drive
-It seems to be backup.json on the old partition files

So my question is are there any where on the old partition you can think of where my old favorites can be kept?

Any suggestion would be appreciated
Thank you very much

The "Application Data" in XP/Win2K folder and the folder "AppData" in Windows Vista and later versions of Windows 7 + are hidden folders.

The old profile folder must be in one of these places.

XP:

  • C:\Documents and Settings\ < user > < profile > \Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\.

Vista/Windows 7:

  • C:\Users\ < user > < profile > \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\.

Windows: %AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ < profile >.

    Why firefox did block the latest version of adobe flash 22.0.0. 192 ?

    Because it is affected by critical vulnerabilities and is not the current version. The current version has been 22.0.0. 209 since July 12. https://www.Adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html

    https://addons.Mozilla.org/Firefox/blocked/ , July 25, 2016: Flash Player Plugin 21.0.0.242 to 22.0.0. 192 (Win & Mac) Flash Player Plugin 18.0.0.352 to 18.0.0.360 ESR (Win & Mac) Flash Player Plugin on Linux 11.2.202.621 to 11.2.202.626

    Am trying to re - install Acrobat 9 Pro (includes the Distiller) after installing a new hard drive. iMac 27 "2009, ElCapitan 11.11.6. I have the original dmg file. have also tried copying from back up. Same thing is happening anyway. It seems to load correctly. When open it asks my password but not to its own serial number. It is open, but don't watch not at the full bar at the top, that the word Acrobat, and it does nothing? Worked very well before the old drive crashing. On the same operating system?

    Not compatible does not mean that it cannot work (even if sometimes this does not mean that). This means that it has never been tested and not be fixed; This often means people have seen strange and unpredictable issues.

    Acrobat makes changes to the system, it is always more vulnerable. DC Acribat is the current version. If the goal is to slow down completely, perhaps more profitable subscription activity.

  • How to move the original system to the SSD newly installed without an optical drive?

    I want to buy a W530 and spare SSD upgrade.

    I want to order one without a DVD player.

    How to move the system of origin, drivers and other software for the SSD newly installed without an optical drive?

    Hope someone could help me. Thank you.

    The two utilities that I mentioned manage alignment automatically. Also, I photographed my hard drive, then restored the SSD. I have no clone, which means a direct copy of the HDD to the SSD.

    I just went through this myself in July, using Acronis True Image 2012 to get my existing on my 256 GB SSD mSATA HARD disk image. It worked like a charm. I checked that the SSD has been properly aligned.

    See:

    Migrate to SSD

    and:

    Now stop worrying!

  • Why should I upgrade to a beta version (5), if in the firefox website, firefox 4 is the latest version?

    My version, 4.0.1 my asked to apply the update to version 5 Beta.
    When I look for more details on the reasons, I cannot find any available information.
    I then back to firefx page automatically where it says I have the latest version.

    It is possible that you are still on the beta update channel, if you have already installed a release candidate or a beta version of Firefox 4.

    You can check that in looking at pref app.update.channel on the subject: config page.

    If the value of this pref is beta so it is best to download and install the latest version of Firefox 4.0.x.

  • Firefox does play not any what Flash, even with the latest Flash installed

    Hello

    My firefox is unable to play any Flash for months.

    Here are the questions:
    1. If I want to watch videos on Youtube, it turns out to be just as black (by clicking on the video can trigger the icon well break).
    2. If I want to watch a Web site with Flash, it just loads the first 2 seconds and then Flash freezes.

    I have read all the help information in the forum and tried several solutions (see below), but none of them worked:

    -Uninstall and reinstall Firefox
    -Uninstall and reinstall Flash:

          1) when entered Youtube without Flash installed, the website asked me to install Flash but it somehow ended to a failure so I had to manually download and install
          2) after installing Flash, I also went to: http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/. I can see the version info but not the animation of the banner - it just shows a red box and then disappears after a few secs.
    

    -Reset Firefox
    -Use mode browser safe
    -Install the latest version of Realplayer
    -Analyze the State of the plugin on the Web site: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/
    -Disable hardware acceleration in the advanced option
    -Regenerate the file "pluginreg.dat".

    I use WIn 7 (64-bit), with Firefox 24.0 and Flash11_8_800_168. I spent too much time on this issue and now I use Chrome to view the video.

    Hope this can be resolved with your help.

    Thank you!
    -Jeffery

    Hi Jeffery, I'm not familiar with a lot of your plugins. In the event that one of them could have an impact on Flash content, could disable you any that you do not use on a regular basis? (Set to 'never activate')

  • How can I get Firefox to view the latest Web pages when I come back, instead of having to click on the button refresh?

    I couldn't find the option to choose from on Firefox to automatically display the latest version of web pages whenever I come. I was need to hit the Refresh button.

    You can make Firefox always reload a page by changing a hidden preference.

    1. Type of topic: config in the address bar and press on enter
    2. Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
    3. In the filter box, type frequency to bring up a small number of preferences
    4. Double-click the browser.cache.check_doc_frequency preference and change its value to 1

    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.cache.check_doc_frequency for more details about this preference

  • Installation level - previous version installed necessary?

    I bought VMware Workstation v10 upgrade.

    To install this upgrade of 515 MB file, it is necessary first to install v9?

    Or the file is usable as a new installation on a system without a previously installed Workstation?

    Sometimes, upgrades, to a previous installation, or at least the first version that was purchased.

    Thank you

    =

    Nope, each version installer will be uninstall any earlier version, if it still exists.  The installation program does not check the previous version for any other reason.  The only difference was the cost thank you licenses/workstation.

  • How do you know what was the latest patch installed on VMware ESX Server 3i, 3.5.0 207095

    Hello guys,.

    I've been running an old server that was installed in a test system on workstation DELL - Optiplex GX620 (32 bit).

    During installation, I had to confirgure the file: /usr/lib/vmware/installer/Core/TargetFilter.py to change the following line:

    "interface returned. GetInterfaceType() == ScsiInterface.SCSI_IFACE_TYPE_IDE' as follows:

    "interface returned. GetInterfaceType() == ScsiInterface.SCSI_IFACE_TYPE_ISCSI' this is it worked and I used it for 3 years now. However, right now, I was hoping to be updated with the latest patches and updates and I do not know if I just ESX or ESXi, or what was my last update, and what it takes then.

    I used this command to get the following result:

    # vmware - v

    VMware ESX Server 3i 3.5.0 build-207095

    ... I think that the 3i says I have an ESXi 3.5.0 but build 207095 the buid even as ESXi 3.5.0 patch 5?

    If this is not the case, how should I do to update? What is the KB # I should download?

    I can manage using vSphere Client 5.5 and I can't SSH using PuTTY.

    Note: When I run... "# esxupdate - bundle = ESXe350-201302401-I - SG.zip updated ' of in the folder where his property in the data store, nothing happens... just a new line scrolls.

    Also...

    ... is there any update for this system? I therefore believe that the patch software etc was not around when I was installing this server in 2010.

    Based on KB http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1014508 you run ESX 3.5 Update 5.

  • What is the best way to install windows 7 on 3 computers at home, all Macs with no previous version installed?

    I intend to divide my drive hard while I have both a mac and pc side to get the best of both worlds, but I'm not sure what product would be best suited. As I said previously is for 3 computers that don't have currently no version of windows on them, so I guess the family upgrade would be of no use and I'm not sure whether a House package might be installed on all 3?

    The most cost-effective option in your case is to buy copies of Windows 7 Home Premium System Builder. You will always have to spend money, but against the full package of Windows 7 Home Premium retail, its more profitable:

  • How to validate the license if installed XP from another drive?

    Hi all...

    * original title - how could validate my old driver's license if I cause istalled the BONES of another license (CD), I don't have the original to my PC (laptop IBM) CD? *

    Have you used "Your" product key during installation of operating system from another CD?

    Also is the an OEM XP CD or a CD at retail with the product key?

    Here are some utilities, which will display your product keys:

    Note: Also check the side of your PC case or at the bottom of the laptop for the

    corresponds to what is displayed by the utilities mentioned above as OEM such as
