How can I get my favorites on an old hard drive and transfer them to another hard drive?
the motherboard is dead on my old desktop - but the hard drive is still usable. I got a new office and a friend added the old hard drive from my old computer (which has all my favorite firefox somewhere) on my new computer. Now I have two hard drives on a computer - one that came with the new computer - and my old - so, I'm now able to move all my pictures and files, etc. - and even found the bookmarks of Internet Explorer - but, I can't seem to find bookmarks in firefox. I look under Program Files - and I have-see Mozilla Firefox but don't see the bookmarks. I have searched for it - tried the answers that the mozilla site says to do it - but I can't find them. can anyone help? Thank you
Bookmarks are not stored in the Program Files folder, but rather in their own folder profile 'hidden '.
This link will show you where Firefox holds all of your information and what are the files to be transferred through
To access your profile folder, while in Firefox, click the new menu button on the right side of the navigation bar, click Help, and then click troubleshooting information. In the Applications section base, click the Show folder. The window that opens will be your profile folder.
Because you want your bookmarks, you should enter places.sqlite and then put them in the profile folder in your new hard drive with Firefox closed

How can I find my favorites on an old hard drive?
I bought a new computer and installed Firefox. Firefox has also been installed on my old computer, and I have the old hard drive connected to my new computer as drive E. I would get my favorites copied from the old drive to my current profile on my new C drive, but I can't locate the old favorites. On the old computer, I think that I was using Vista, but I don't know which version of Firefox. Here's research that I tried (should be view hidden folders):
JSON (a lot of results have been found, but for other programs only).
places.SQLite (no result)
bookmarkbackups (no result)
mrv9503t.default (no results. It is apparently the name of the file in question on my NEW computer).
.default (338 results?)
%AppData%\Mozilla (no result)
%AppData%\microsoft\windows\sendto (12 results, all related to Windows)
E:\Users\ < user > \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ < profile > (no result)
E:\Users\ < user > (no result)
E:\Users (3 results, but none are named 'user')I thought about it. I didn't not < user > and < profile > refers to the names on my computer. Once occurred to me, I managed to restore from a backup by following the instructions at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/restore-bookmarks-from-backup-or-move-them

Original title: the file format of external hard drive is the RAW and not NTFS. How can I get Windows 7 to read RAW hard drives without having to format the hard drive due to important work on this subject?
I put the hard drive on an XP and Vista machine and can read the hard drive, but not with Windows 7
Hi Zling,
It works on other OS? When did you finally read the disc and with what OS? If you can read the drive and make a backup of the data on this subject, I you suggest to backup the data on the drive and then put it in using the NTFS file system.
I hope this helps! Shawn - Support Engineer - MCP, MCDST

How can I get my computer to use my second drive?
I went to my computer and saw that I have 2 hard drives, each written that they have about 70 GB. Is this really true I have 140 GB in total? If so, how can I get my computer to use my other drive. I'm sorry if I wrote it in the wrong section.
Hello Mathieu,
Yes, there is a way, but there are "attacking" the drive so that the computer knows where it is. Who also encourages you to understand how you want to use the drive. Most people put their operating system and programs on a disk, the disk 'C' (C:\BootDrive would be an example) and to put their data on a second disk, the disk "D" files (D:\DataDrive would be an example).
Once you've got it organized on paper (or in your head), to be labelled and / or format the drive. You can use the mechanism in the post following blue microwave, or you can use the freeware Aomei Partition Assistant application, which will be the ID and label and / or format your drive, according to what is needed. Download the app here: http://download.cnet.com/AOMEI-Partition-Assistant-Standard-Edition/3000-18512_4-75118871.html?tag=mncol;1 (only use the Direct download link).
Once installed, you select the drive in question and select Properties, which will tell you the status of your order and options to your need to work with her. For example, if its not allocated, you will need to return it, format it and assign a drive letter. Or he may have already assigned a drive letter and just need to be formatted to be used. Or it may be already in. The program will tell you what you have and what you need to do as your next step.
Let me know what instructions to proceed to the next step.
Kind regards

How can I get rid of windows 7 without deleting it and istalling a different operating system?
How can I get rid of windows 7 without deleting it and istalling a different operating system? I remember on xp, I couldn't allow him to function as a windows 95 or 98, if I wanted to. I just want my computer works like windows xp.
So can YER a little confused you explain a little better please.
OR
do you mean get W7 to resemble the way XP worked?
In this case (start base fast and simple):
- try to set a theme for a basic/classic theme - more like 98 then XP well.
- Download (AV Control) and then use "classic shell" - menu style old XP.
- Ditto for "explore classic" mentioned on this site.
- Set the control panel to use the icons (small or large) as opposed to categories.
But its still W7 in disguise.
Is that the sort of thing you mean?
If so, personally, I think its better to stick with W7 and get used to. I bet you will love windows 8 :)

My free trial of Illustrator 2015 crashed and burned after 2 days of trial. How can I get my trial free back before buy you. and if I decide to buy it, will I get another version to download. As I don't want the broken version that will not reopen.
Cindy,
I believe you can reinstall right under the trial, use preferably the full path in three steps (the otherwise strange things may persist):
(1) uninstall (check the box to delete the preferences),
(2) run the cleanup tool, see the link below,
(3) reinstall.
http://www.Adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html
The cleaning tool works for all versions of CS3 on (you can see the top of the page).
Here are the instructions for use, including individual applications:

My Favorites are organized all happy and in the bookmarks library, how can I get the bookmarks on the (LEFT scale) part of my screen?
My home page is Yahoo UK.
Hotkey Ctrl + B display the bookmarks bar.
This option does not seem to be explicitly displayed in Firefox 4. You can also use the keyboard Alt key then in turn, V, E, B , or choose to display the menu bar toolbar instead of the firefox button.
Other methods to watch bookmarks are in the drop-down menu in the menu or in the firefox button and the library of Favorites bar: Ctrl + Shift + B
