I am trying to import my Internet Explorer Favorites and the element menu to import on the FILE menu is greyed out (unavailable)

You can export your IE Favorites and then import this file into Firefox. Works better than the 'import', IMO.

In Internet Explorer:

File > Import/Export - Export to HTML file

then in Firefox:

Bookmarks > show all bookmarks-> import and backup - import HTML... = HTML file

  • How can I disable a shortcut that says 'open in Internet Explorer' and default back to FF

    I use FF as my default browser. A few shortcuts work best in Internet Explorer, so I select the option 'Open in Internet Explorer' and it works fine. Now I would like to cancel one of these shortcuts and opened it in FF by the original. I tried to delete the shortcut, but all new shortcut FF for this website automatically opens in Internet Explorer.

    How to cancel this initial transfer to IE so it opens again in FF?

    To start, make sure that the printer is plugged directly into a wall outlet, not a surge protector. Once done:

    1. If your printer is connected to your PC via a USB cable, remove it.
    2. Close any programs you have open.
    3. In your search type in printers bar and open devices and printers.
    4. Right-click on any icon of your printer listed.
    5. Click on remove the instrument.
    6. Repeat for all other icons of your printer listed.
    7. If you removed the USB cable, connect. If this is not the case, click on add printer and follow the prompts to add a print to your printer queue.

    Please let me know the results after following the above. If you are able to print properly, click on accept solution. If you appreciate my help, please click on the thumbs up icon. The two icons are below this post.
