Favorites and old links

I have used firefox for more than 5 years. hard drive died, and I realized that all my links disappeared. Is there a way to recover. I don't know if I ever recorded and tried to see. However, whenever I put email and request password lost - nothing comes back (I'm seeing if I registered years ago). This is not say acct there not just nothing comes back. More importantly, is it possible to recover the old links / Favorites based on your location, home ISP? any ideas / help?

If you have never created a Firefox Sync account, which is separated by a support Web site account, then there is no copy of your bookmarks, passwords or other data by Mozilla Firefox. Other people might have a copy (?), but it would depend on which / services Add ons, you use (for example, if you imported your bookmarks to Favorites of Yahoo, or use a cloud backup service any).

Is the old drive completely dead? In other words, even if she is no longer bootable, can it be read as a secondary drive or external to extract data?

  • Keep old links and add new links to the title page of the document

    I was given an interactive pdf to update. The work on the title page insrtucts the Viewer to click on a highlighted product to a product page in the document... The revised document that ancient works of art and the links will remain in the same place, but other products have been added that will be tied to additional product pages. So I have to change the basic art, is it possible in Acrobat to replace the old work base with new art without distrubing the former basic links?

    Links are a form of markup. Create the page PDF of the work. Open the old PDF (or better a copy), then replace pages allows you to replace the basic document page. The markup should not be affected.

  • I uninstalled aurora and now all my favorites and passwords are left of firefox 4, how can I recover my bookmarks and passwords

    I uninstalled aurora and now all my favorites and passwords are left of firefox 4, how can I recover my bookmarks and passwords?

    Sorry you have coming.

    See the attached screenshot. If you selected the option to remove my Aurora (nightly minefield, Firefox) the personal data and customizations you deleted all your profiles for each version you have / had installed. You can try to use a program for recovering files, like Recuva, to see what can be salvaged.

    The bookmarks to the file places.sqlite , or among the backup of bookmarks Favorites-aaaa-mm-jj.json files (10 are stored). Regarding your passwords, you need the file signons.sqlite and signons3.txt file.

  • recovery of Favorites and bookmarks

    I work in a system recovery to a desktop pc with ms vista home premium 64-bit OS.

    the system would not start after months of get slower and slower boot times.  tried to do

    system recovery when finally be able to start the system but when choosing a backup all files recovery

    program has failed and the display went blank.  Impossible to recover or restart since.  suspecting HDD

    failure (even if NOT functioning HD noise) or a file corrupted (boot or startup).  all the system passed diagnostics?

    If the intention of full system re - install OEM (no backups have been made before) disc.

    We are planning to check the disc first then put as secondary in other pc to test and backup

    files of the disc if you work.  If this process seems correct AND can backup/restore the

    Favorites/bookmarks in browsers?  Can they be resettled if so, after the re - install? (old-fashioned or)

    the new hard drive)

    the owner has a lot of Favorites and bookmrks, and if these cannot be reinstalled then try to retrieve all files

    may not be important.  I was told that it takes a LONG time to copy a file from hard drive (750 GB drive).

    Maybe 50 GB used.

    Please let me know what you think that went and on this stimulus package with your advice.

    Thank you people

  • Duplicate the 'Favorites' and 'Music' folders that appear.

    In my file user a few months ago I noticed that I had two folders called 'Favorites '. I deleted one of them only a few times to make it reappear later.  Today, I noticed another problem of dupe. I have now two "Favorites" and two records 'music '. Does anyone have an idea of what is causing this and a resolution possible?

    Example: http://www.thecaldwellfamily.net/rjc/images/Clipboard-1.gif

    With the favorite dupe files one is empty and one actually contains the Favorites of IE. For music files, it is empty and contains in fact all of the music stored on my PC. One that is empty display a normal folder icon while one that contains music shows the blue note CD icon. (as shown in the image link)  I tried to remove two empty folders but when I reboot him reappear. I've been using MS Security Essentials and keep up-to-date and analysis since it was released.

    I think I can have it fixed for now however.  It seems that some combinations of iTunes and TuneBite creates a bunch of 'ghost' (i.e. folders hidden / system) and some were 'linked' to Favorites and music files.  When another application would attempt to access these folders (for example WMP or IE) apps could not find records and create duplicates.  I did some digging in the properties of the records and found the "Restore Default" button in the location tab. When you click on that I noticed that the place has changed the name of folder long ghost the correct path of "C:\Users\\Music" and "C:\Users\\Favorites.

    Everything seems to be fine now, but if I have additional problems, I will use your suggestions to create a new user and copy only the data through. I'm just trying to not have to re - import my mail again. I am a digital packrat and have mail dating back to 1995 it takes awhile. :)

  • REMOVE UNWANTED WINDOWS. FILES AND OLD DIRECTORY

    Some time previously, I have known a 'Crash' computer and eventually re-instaqlling WINDOWS 7.  The old Windows 7 files were stored on my hard drive as Windows.old.  I have transferred from the files that I needed in the new files in Windows7, but have been unqable to remove the files and old windows.old directory.  I tried the remedies 'online' by using the disk cleanup and change the administrative control of the changes, but nothing seems to work.  More recently, I tried to open the prompt in administrative mode, and again, I was unable to delete the directory of the object or the files and the subfolders.

    When it comes to remove the sub directories, with. and... the monikers, nothing happens, and online tips indicate that I'm not using a syntax of brand.

    If I try to delete the directory or the files or move them to the Recycle Bin, the system advises I need Administrative approval?

    Any suggestions?

    John

    Hello

    Thanks for the post.

    When you try to delete the files and folders under the folder Windows.old the message says that you need administrative privileges.

    Method 1:

    If you are the administrator of the computer, then log in with the Admin account and try to delete the folder.

    Method 2:

    You run the prompt in administrator mode. Follow the steps.

    1. Click Start.
    2. Type "cmd" in the search box.
    3. Right-click on command prompt in the list.
    4. Choose "Run as Administrator"

    Method 3:

    You can disable user account control and check if it helps. Check out the link and follow the steps.

    Enable or disable the User Account Control

  • Script to search for text and remove the hyperlink and characterstyle link which applies (back to normal)

    I need help with my script to search for text and remove the hyperlink and characterstyle link which applies (returns the normal text).

    I can't do either as I want.  I want the user to be able to type in a dialog text they want to search for, do search this text IGNORING case (case insensitive) and then for all instances that he find it, remove character styles that are applied to the (set to [none]) and delete the hyperlinks.

    My code seems to define the character style [None], when I click on the text and look at the window of character Styles, BUT all old styles (font color, underline) are always applied and removed not as I want.

    Also, I can't understand how to remove all of the old links.

    Here is my code:

    myDocument var = app.activeDocument;

    var noneStyle = myDocument.characterStyles.item ("[None]");

    }

    else {}
