  • Is there a switch Terminal to export/import a JSON FILE?

    I need to get and put the Firefox files in an external program, so I need to be able to export/import JSON files programmatically (probably the command line). Is there a switch that I can use, or another way to do this?

    You can do that via the command line.

    There is a daily backup of JSON in the bookmarkbackups folder in the Firefox profile folder

    Maybe you can create a component XPCOM to do what you want.

  • Cannot import a brand book .json file (a file HTML BM or BM Chrome)

    Started FF with no plugins and he locked up tight when you try to import a json file has recently made my PC who died.
    Did the same thing with less desirable HTML bookmarks or import Chrome bookmarks.

    This behavior of shit years and followed me across 5 or 6 PC...

    In a similar thread a year or two there, after much back and forth, the user has finished by reports that finally restored Firefox bookmarks successfully and unlock after being greeted a long period of time to complete the operation.

    I don't know how long you let go but maybe give it 10 minutes and see if that helps? You can open the task manager of Windows 7 (Ctrl + Shift + Esc) in the processes tab, monitor that Firefox is active or dead.

  • I had to do a destructive recovery. Try to reinstall the bookmarks but the 8.0 new OS I installed does not ORGANIZE the FAVORITES so I can't import the. JSON file.

    I'm MISSING 'To ORGANIZE the BOOKMARKS' AND 'LIBRARY' IN 8.0, so I am obviously unable to follow the instructions given. I have Windows XP, not that it is important. I have the. JSON file stored in a hard disk external. Every website I've seen so far says to go to favorite bookmarks / organise and import from there, but there is NO organize bookmarks that I found in 8.0 so I have no idea how to do to import this file to install my old favorites.

    In addition, I don't have whatever it is labelled library either. AND I don't have any Add - ons that can be a problem.

    Organize bookmarks was renamed to display all bookmarks in the version of Firefox 4.0.

    Bookmarks > show all bookmarks or {Ctrl + Shift + B}

    BTW, you will need to restore this backup file JSON, import the bookmarks HTML files that have been exported from a web browser.

  • Can I remove my exported html bookmark file after I re any and it merged with my restoration of my old favorites? Even with the json file?

    I recently reinstalled my OS on a new drive and have just successfully restored my old favorite and imported all the new bookmarks that I had saved from the OS install. I just want to know if it is safe to remove the json file I have restored from since it was on the old disk I want to format and I can also delete the html file I created by exporting my new bookmarks until I started this process?
    Marc

    You can keep a backup of the old file or make backups, backups JSON on the new computer.

    You can decide for yourself if you would have a use of this file.

    If all bookmarks have been restored successfully, then you won't need the backup, and you can create a new backup regularly if you have modified or added bookmarks.

  • How to import bookmarks from a json file?

    I have Firefox 23.0.1.

    I am trying to import Firefox bookmarks from a json on another disk file and merge it with my existing bookmarks.

    I have only options to import an html file. I can also use food to put in the file, but it will overwrite my current bookmarks, and I would like to merge the two.

  • Could not import the bookmarks file large

    I recently bought another computer on Windows. I installed Firefox and tried to import my bookmarks (html) file. I could only import files into my favorites and nothing else. Then I open my file of bookmarks in Firefox and bookmarks I want are still there. The bookmarks file is 15.8 mb in size. Do I need to split this file and, if so, how could I do?

    Thank you!

    If you still have the old computer, you can try backup .json (using the backup instead of export). With the new system, restore the .json file.

  • I can't restore my favorites, the file does not work.

    I've saved my favorites as a file backup but when I try to load the file it comes not as a JSON file and when I load showing all files it says "this file type is not supported. What should I do?

    If you have a valid .json file created by backup (no), you can restore (not import it). You must do this in the menu of the list of the library (Ctrl + Shift + B).

    Make sure you know the difference between the export/import and backup/restore

  • "Failed to process the backup file" - bookmarks JSON file

    I deleted my appdata files without thinking and then allowed my trash. When I opened firefox again all my favorites have disappeared. I used piriform recuva to find my deleted files and recover the backup JSON files 10 bookmark. When I try to restore my bookmarks, I get the message "failed to process the backup file". "Files are 95 KB in size, but when I open them with Notepad that they are empty, however, when you use the Restore tool, it is said ' elements of 480", which I assume is the amount of bookmarks, I had, which means that firefox can see data. The same happens for all ten backups that I recovered.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    What is the name of this file?

    Firefox can only look at the file name for the number of items.

    • < number > _ < hash > .json bookmark-YYYY-MM-JJ_

    The files in the bookmarkbackups folder are currently in compressed format .jsonlz4 (i.e., they show data binary like a ZIP compressed archive) and cannot be easily unzipped for access the JSON text format.
    The files are compressed means that a single error in the file will make it impossible to unpack the file.

    Have you checked all the available JSON backup to see if everything works?

    A backup created manually JSON is always not compressed, so can be easily inspected or opened in a text editor (Notepad > "Pretty Print"), but with a compressed file, it is much more difficult.

    Recovery of a file via an undelete utility is no guarantee that the space occupied by the file has not been used by another file, and so is corrupt.
