How to import a profile from another machine under Windows 7

I have a new Windows 7 computer and the hard drive from my old computer (XP) the old hard drive is not bootable, but I can see my old Firefox profile.

I did export profile.

I would ideally like to just copy that the old profile for my new Firefox setup but Win 7 will not let me browse to folder. (c:\Users\ (name) change Data.

What I would like is essentially a function of full import where I could access the old profile and have Firefox just copy everything in? Such a thing exists? Is there another way to do what I'm doing?

Thank you.

First of all, make sure you have Windows 7 set to view hidden files and foders, for more details on how to do that see http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial151.html

You can copy selected files of the old profile folder in your profile folder, for details, see recovering data from an old profile.

A lot of files in the profile folder will be automatically generated when required, it is best to allow Firefox to create these files and simply copy those containing data such as bookmarks and passwords as shown in the article above.

  • Capture an image from a machine under windows 2000 server during production

    Hello

    We are looking to capture an image of a server windows 2000 (with sp4) has sql 2005 standard installed on it.  I've done a few machines and windows 2003 during production, while I used the converter and no problems.  Does anyone have experience with windows 2000?  I know that on windows 2000, a reboot is required.

    We bring the image into a villas of test to test the upgrade of the operating system to windows 2003.  Once satisfied, redo us the same process and will have ESXi host computer.

    BTW, the converter is version 3.03.

    Thank you

    Can someone confirm that during the capture of the image, the (any) services, sql, etc. on the operating system will continue to operate?

    I ran a test and see no problem but I just want to know that.

    I have captured many images of a windows 2003 while the services windows, sql server, etc. will work perfectly during the process.

    Yes, the services are still running.  However, it is normally recommended that you disable the services as much as possible.   If you have a lot of traffic to the server, the conversion may fail half way through.  And of course, all the changes bring users to data cannot be included in the image/converted data.  If the conversion is for dev/test, then it may be acceptable.

    When I did my hot clones, it was generally after hours so that I can disable the SQL and other services.  I've done a few hot clones with services running, but there is no user logged in, so very little traffic to the title of the conversion machine.

    Hello! It is probabably the first of many questions coming. I'm learning on the fly...

    How to reset a page back to the original or import a page from another site (being the site of duplicate).

    Looks like an obvious thing to do without changing the entire site. properties of the page reset did not help.

    Thank you!

    import of a page is not possible, but what you can do is.

    1, open the two files of muse

    2. on your template file, go to the page that you want to reset.

    3. in the Edit menu-> select all (or ctrl + a youâ case in re using Windows)

    4. navigate to another site where you want to reset the page.

    5. create a new page or remove content on an existing one.

    6. yet once in Edit-> stick it in place.

    This should do what is necessary. I would like to know if it works or not.

  • How to import my contacts from my Tablet 10 "toshiba

    It is a question of toshiba 10 '' tablet, how to import my contacts from my computer on my tablet. I have "a real model, so tell me simply. Thank you very much.

    Optional information:
    Computer OS: Windows 7
    Browser: IE

    Already tried:
    Found nothing to try.

    Any suggestion would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Susan.

    There are different applications. It also depends on where (in which program), your contacts are backed up.

    There is no "Google App Sync" that works with the latest versions of Outlook. I'm not sure if you can directly sync contacts with this app, or if it goes over google's servers.

    For our phones, I used "MyPhoneExplorer". This app is free for PC and Android sync (not only) contacts directly between the PC software (Outlook, Outlook Express, Thunderbird, Lotus, MyPhoneExplorer internal) and some android devices. Either your tablet. Synchronization can be done via WiFi. Thap app comes also with own icons for tasks and notes, and allows to synchronize the calendar as well (if a calendar is present on the Tablet).

    Don't forget to backup your PC Contacts before the first synchronization, however.

  • How can I transfer music from my iPod to Windows Media Player?

    Windows media player/Center

    How can I transfer music from my iPod to Windows Media Player?

    WMP is not built-in iPod support, so you will need to use another media player, such as iTunes or Winamp, to get the music from the iPod to the PC (I don't know if iTunes will allow you to do, but Winamp will certainly be).

    If you then copy the music files to your personal music collection, they appear automatically in the WMP library.

  • Lion running as a virtual machine under Windows (in front of the normal).

    Long story short, I'll install Windows (natively) on my MBA (lots of reasons - application compatibility, management files, etc.) but would like to have OS X on the side to play with. Anyone have any experience using OS X Lion in a virtual machine under Windows? Since it IS an Apple computer brand, I think it would be legal Yes? I'm guessing there will be VM Tools, but again, since it is an MBA, the drivers should be built anyway?

    Thank you

    First VMware does not support Mac OS x (and version) running under Windows!

    Mac OS X Lion, which is preinstalled cannot be legally virtualized and to virtualize Mac OS X Lion, you need to have a copy that was purchase on the App Store or on USB and then can only be virtualized on Mac OS X Lion!
