Cannot restore bookmarks. "Unable to process the backup file." I tried all of the solutions that I can find online.
I am under W7 and 14.01 FF. My FF admin account works fine. My work account has problems. In the past I was able to get the bookmarks to return but not this time.
The favorites were there yesterday morning and disappeared in the afternoon. Nothing has changed between the AM and PM to my knowledge. I tried every solution that I could find online but still no bookmarks.
Problems with bookmarks and history does not properly can be caused by a corrupted database places.sqlite file.

Also, make sure that the backup has the correct file extension (.json to restore a JSON backup).

I reformatted and reinstalled Windows 7 on a computer that has not been used for about a year. Before wiping the HARD drive, I saved Firefox bookmarks in the form of a .json file (I don't know what version of FF was installed on the computer before, but I know it was at least a year).
After reinstalling Windows and install Firefox 24.0, I tried to restore the bookmarks using the "Bookmarks-> import" and backup-> restore-> Choose File... "option. I get the error says "Failed to process the backup file."
I tried to search for this problem but I couldn't find anything precise. It sounds ridiculous because I just installed FF, I tried to delete the file "places.sqlite" based on other similar problems, but that did not fix the problem.
My only thought is that it must be a problem with incompatible versions of FF bookmarks. Is it possible to recover bookmarks in the .json file?
Oh my god. I removed the comma, who pointed out the error report and file and bookmarks have been restored!
How this comma go?
Thank you for linking me to the validation tool. It has been extremely helpful.

Unable to process the command BCU
Hello
I'm having a problem using BCU to configure the bios for a particular model desktop - PC HP Compaq 8000 Elite USDT
When you try to configure, I get an error message
Msg of ERROR = "unable to process the command. Password is enabled, but no other file password is provided, but it is not valid / >
Msg of ERROR = result "BCU return value" = "10" / >The password was generated using HPQPswd.exe, and I am able to configure the bios for other computers (USDT Elite 8200, 8300 Elite USDT, Probook 4520) s using the same command.
The operating system we use is Windows 7 Professional 32-bit.
Someone at - it suggestions?
I suspect that the system is old enough that the BIOS does not support Unicode format of the passwords. Run the attached script as "cscript IsPasswordSet.vbs" and it should tell you.
If this is the case, try using the BCU version 2.60.13 on the web site of Customer Management Solutions. Check the use, the parameters are different.

I can create restore points and when updates are installed the system automatically creates a restore point. The problem is that I can't get the system to restore to a restore of these these points.
System Restore was unable to extract the original copy of the restore point directory
Source:%systemroot%\registration
Destination: ComPlusStaging
Hello John R H,
Are you able to restore system successfully on a different date, or that you get the same result? I looked through this thread and was curious to know why you want to perform a system restore? Having other issues in addition to what you have described?
Try to make a last good known Configuration and see if you are able to perform a system restore.

Using a Mac OSX updated 10.9.5, to update to the latest update of Lightroom, now get error - Lightroom met permission issues. Click on fix - cannot fix. You click on read more and I tried all the solutions. Always error. Uninstalled and reinstalled - always error. Cannot set up a new admin on Gov't computer user. Help
Please make sure that you gave permission for the folders listed in the article, follow these steps.
1 - give read and write permissions for the Application Support folder and preferably on User Library and the secret library.
2 - Add user and admin both permissions.
When you open the Get Info option for specific folder.
Make sure you click on '+' symbol, it will open the list of user accounts. Add currently logged in user account and Director of user account, if it is not added.
Both must have read and write to prevent access these some questions in the future.
Important:
Once you added as currently logged on user account and administrator user accounts and provided access for reading and writing.
Make sure you click on the gear icon and select apply to closed.
Lock dialog box and close the Get Info .
So that all the folders in the folder Adobe will get read and write access.
Let us know if this helps

regidit cannot access on vista, typed in the search, that nothing comes
can not access on vista, typed in the search, that nothing comes
Hi Herentals,
Maybe it's a typo (you said regidit instead of regedit) or by typing just not enough. Type regedit.exe and it should appear as a program at the top of the list that you can double-click to open.
I hope this helps.
Good luck!

Maybe it's a supplement that you have installed.
As part of this process, I put a limit on the number of recipients that would be treated as "to:.".

My computer has Windows 7 and Acrobat Reader DC. When I open a PDF sent there are several fonts instead of one. The only difference I can find is 'Properties - font - Arial - Type of the actual is of Type 1 fonts' instead of 'TrueType '. If this is the problem, how can I change the Type 1 for TrueType, and if not, what could be the problem and the fix?
It cannot be resolved with Reader. Sounds like an issue that will be attached to the end of the creation of embedding fonts.

When I opened the window "save the Page under", the drop-down box file name indicates the files that have been saved a long time ago. It is not cleared by a function 'clear history' that I can find. How can I erase this?
Hello.
I think this is a related issue of Windows, because it is the Manager to save the windows file that we are talking about here (right?). You should contact Microsoft for help with this one, I think. You expect to be able to delete entries simply by touching delete on your keyboard when they are concentrated (that is how it goes for the removal of the form entries specific autocomplete in Firefox), but I have not tried.
I'm sorry I can't be more helpful.
