I have 50 40M each places.sqlite files. Can I remove the "old" and firefox stop recording of older than the most recent files, while retaining history?

Thank you.

It's not bad.

These files are all in the same Firefox profile folder?

They have the name of places.sqlite or is there something added?

You only need one of them and this is the file that Firefox currently uses to store the history and bookmarks.

You can check for problems with the database places.sqlite file in the Firefox profile folder.

    I need to know how to remove the most recent version of Firefox. I JUST downloaded tonight and my computer does not have this edit bar little to work with, so I can download the reader good Adobe and my internet was screwed up, since I downloaded the new version of Firefox. I want just the old version of this back because I can't download the Adobe stuff which is necessary to protect my computer against hackers apparently not. It would have been nice to know he had a problem with the new update of Firefox BEFORE I downloaded it. I have Vista, which is usually a problem with Adobe and Firefox. I don't seem to be able to run a lot of Adobe at all on my computer because of the Vista.

  • Backup utility Windows 7 application ' are you sure you want to remove the most recent data from the backup file "even if I'm trying to remove the backup set is not the most recent.

    I'm trying to reduce the amount of space that my Windows 7 backup uses so I've come to the place in Windows 7 backup:
    Manage space > view backups...

    I am then presented a list of three backup sets:
    01/03/2012 to 01/04/2012
    12/07/2011 to 12/21/2011
    23/11/2011 to 30/11/2011

    I would like to remove the older two, leaving the most recent. However, this doesn't seem to work as expected. If I try to delete one of the two most recent ones (the first two in the list above) I get the following warning "Are you sure you want to delete this backup file.

    However, if I try to delete the last one in the list, I get a slightly different error "Are you sure you want to remove the most recent data of the file backup?"-sounds strange because it is clearly not the most recent backup according to the dates it's show.

    Of course, I can go ahead and ignore the warnings, but I fear that maybe there are some files in the last backup the value in the list that may not be right more recent set backs.

    In 2011, I thought this might be something wrong with the date formats vs US UK (I am in England so the above dates are in dd/mm/yyyy format and not in jj/mm/aaaa) - but now it's 2012 and I backup from 2012 and 2011 games and he always seems to think that the oldest backup of 2011 is the most recent.

    Any ideas? Can I delete the oldest backup sets (that is, the two that are from 2011) safely?

    Any help much appreciated - thank you.

    Update: I checked on other PCs in the office and the situation is the same - is not only something strange on a PC.

  • If I don't have that one window without tab, how can I remove the label of the tab at the top of the window?

    OK, I open a window on my home page. In the upper left part of the window, I have the Firefox icon and next to it the name of the page that I am. Below that is the menu bar which I use enough to leave it there. And now, with no other tabs open, is a bunch of lable/tab tab / be it with the icon of Firefox and next to him, the name of the page, I'm on. Below that is the url/address bar which usually also shows the name of the page that I am.

    I like a clean screen with small footprint as possible. Usually, I know which window to page / I'm on because I'm the one who got me here. I have need a band to additional tabs for a window that has no open tabs take more space and tell me what I already know.

    If I could drop the icon of Firefox waste than any of the top of my screen that would be great, but I'm sure that's not an option.

    If I could put this menu bar on the same line as the address bar, I'd be in heaven to the space used effectively! But I'm also sure that that won't happen either.

    This new band/tab tab label if I know that does not need to be there because he has never been before until I opened a new tab and logically would then use for tabs.

    But, given that I don't like and I want not gone, I presume this means that it is new, because one or more persons thought redundancy is fun and there is no option to remove it either.

    Someone can give information me in places where my ignorance cause me to suffer here? Give back me my thumb at the top of my screen and I promise not to ask for a mile!

    Thanks to all who can / will help me.
    Much peace

    Did you try to uncheck the "always show the bar tab" checkbox in the options on the tab? See the tab preferences and settings.

  • is it ok to remove the most recent version of the redistributable file in VC ++ in order to install a program that requires an older version?

    I have a file in VC ++ 2010 version Re distributable 10.0.40219. One of the programs will install vcredist_86.exe and he is unable to do so because I have a newer file. What is the solution?

    Have you tried installing via a right click on the actual Setup.exe and choosing the option "Run As Administrator"?  Perform, even if your user name is an administrator.

    It may be necessary to show both hidden and system files and also uncheck 'Hide known file types' in Control Panel / folder Options / view, navigate to the mentioned location of Temp or to see all the files in there...

    As has been said it is not uncommon to have several versions of VC ++ installed.  If you want you can uninstall them and reinstall them as should be.

  • I can not run the most recent version. I get a window saying firefox.exe is not a Win32 file

    I can install the 5.0.1 version but it won't work. I got this version works when someone elso was using my computer. I don't know how it happened, but the calculation froze and I couldn't run Firefox afterwards. I got Firefox to my computer. Downloaded the latest version once again and I tried to run it. I've done several times without success

    It seems that the installation is corrupt.

    Follow these steps.

    1. Go to Download Firefox 5.0.1 and download the installer to your desktop. If necessary, use Internet Explorer to download, but in this case, choose "Save" when you see the prompt. Do not choose "Run"
    2. Then go to add/remove programs, scroll down to "Mozilla Firefox" and delete it, choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations, etc. (don't tick the box).
    3. Reboot and delete the folder called "Mozilla Firefox" at this location: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    4. Finally, run the installation file downloaded previously on the desktop.

    Your bookmarks, etc., customizations are stored in a different location and will become available to you even once you complete the installation.

    As a precaution, make a backup of your bookmarks as follows:

    1. Press CTRL + SHIFT + B to open the Bookmarks Manager.
    2. Click on the link to import and backup and then click on HTML Export and save the file somewhere.

    You can use this file at any time to restore your bookmarks if that proved necessary. Simply reverse the procedure and choose "Import HTML" instead.

    NB. If you use a download accelerator, turn it off before trying to download Firefox. These utilities are a common cause of corrupt files, in which case you get the error message you mentioned.

  • Hi, my places.sqlite file size is 30 720 KB I reached the maximum size, is there a maximum size for this. Visited links are is more changing color.

    Hello
    My places.sqlite file size is 30 720 KB I reached the maximum size, is there a maximum size for this.
    Suddenly the visited links don't change is no longer the font color, that I prepare for an exam, I need visited issues to change color, to follow up on issues that I ended. But if I delete a few days of history, then again once, most visited links change color and then it stops, it seems that something is getting full and not able to accommodate more? Why my visited links don't change color after a number of visits? I would like to make a back up of the file places.sqlite. So I tried everything to remove the profile, uninstalling reinstalling, creating a new profile, and then copy paste places.sqlite etc, but as mentioned after a few visits, visited links is no longer change color, if I delete a few days in history and then a few visits is again change color and then stop again, so what should I increase so that my quota of visited links is increased , I also tried tweaking about: config and there has been no result. Although I was not really convinced that _pages growing brower.history_max (don't remember the name, but I'm sure you get the idea) will help.
    Seems that while my visited links change color, quota is met and only if I delete the history of a few days will I get some links most visited to change color. Can someone enlighten us? As mentioned that my places.sqlite file size is 30 720 KB so I think maybe this has something to do with it? Would be very grateful if someone could help me. Thank you.

    Sorry it is not looking good.

    1. Unlike bookmarks history is not saved in Firefox.
    2. There is a possibility using Windows.
    3. Sync is not expected to back up things until the synchronization server
    4. If places.sqlite does not sort itself you may have to re-create remove it. You will lose your history, but can still access indirectly IF you have saved a copy of the appropriate
    5. Different databases to try to create new profiles
    1. History
      is rather less robust than bookmarks, you should deliberately somehow return it upward, but it's too late now
    2. Earlier versions of Windows
      This is really the last chance. Make sure you have some places.sqlite you saved. Always before and after any attempt to restore the backup. Windows must be able to provide a previous version. One of these versions may be usable as is; or can be used after a repair with housekeeping. Of course, this is not the latest version but it should help.
    3. Sync is not a server backup service.
      Sync is intended to save on another device, no backup is the fact that the second device then contains synchronized information. IIRC Sync development ceased, and the replacement when available may include a server backup option.
    4. Recreate the database of bookmarks (including history)
      Unfortunately, recess can only use saved bookmarks, there is no saved history to use. Once the database is re-created, it will continue to store the history but it loses the existing history. This time take steps to save on a regular basis.
    5. Use the new profiles for database testing.

    To simplify comparison of the results of the database different files create one or more new additional profiles. Then try to smash the places.sqlite file into the test profile with any other places.sqlite, you want to try. Allows you to directly compare the databases, without seeking to use sync and without changing the Firefox profile work unnecessarily. You can keep a reference profile of studies with the best of the profiles of any shows results of history; According to the best recreated or corrupted database is.
    • Use the Profile Manager to create and delete profiles Firefox
    • CARE, do not rename or delete profiles created once or use anything other than empty folders when they are created. Don't nest in the other profiles. (At least until you know exactly how it behaves - post back if you never consider such actions)
  • Places.SQLite file is corrupted when I connect on linux

    I'm running Fedora 13 and that you just installed Firefox 23, leaving the version provided by RPM in place (as I intend to upgrade Fedora sooner or later anyway). I created a second profile for the new installation and import bookmarks and other configuration. When I close Firefox and restart, no problem; When I log on Linux, however and sign in again, I find a file places.sqlite.corrupt in my profile directory (containing my real Favorites) and a tiny places.sqlite containing the default bookmarks. Obviously rename the file "corrupted" in the name of the law takes over my favorites.

    Have you tried to make Firefox to generate a new places.sqlite file by deleting all files in places?

    This should make Firefox use a JSON backup in the folder bookmarkbackups to create a new places.sqlite database file.

  • Address bar doesn't work does not and is not AutoComplete. Places.SQLite file is not damaged.

    Since the last update, Firefox 49 and 50, the address bar has stopped working. First of all, it would not be before semi-automatic with my browsing history, and now he's not let me even in Web sites. I checked the places.sqlite file and it is not corrupt. I also tried to disable hardware acceleration, but it does nothing more. However, I started Firefox in safe mode and it works very well. What should be the problem here?

    Hi, because it works in Mode safe, pointing to an add-on or theme that is not compatible.

    Start Firefox normally, and then disable any topic and the modules one by one until you find the culprit - Manager of modules additional (Ctrl + Shift + A) > appearance/Extensions. You may need to restart Firefox after you disable some of them.

  • I have to keep each backup set or only the most recent

    Original title: backup sets

    I use backup and restore to make a weekly backup of my files.  A new set of files is created every week, but the size varies.  Each new set of backup files is complete or each new lot only contains the updated items?  I have to keep each backup set or just the most recent?

    Hello

    It depends on what type of backup you do?

    If you did a full backup of the system simply perform a differential or incremental backup on a regular basis.

    Differential backup

    A differential backup copies files that were created or changed since the last normal or incremental backup. It does not mark files as having been backed up (in other words, archive attribute is not cleared). If you are performing a combination of normal and differential backups, restoring files and folders requires that you have the last normal and last differential backup.

    Incremental backup

    An incremental backup backs up only files that were created or changed since the last normal or incremental backup. It marks files as having been backed up (in other words, archive attribute is cleared). If you use a combination of normal and incremental backups, you will need to have the last normal backup set as well as all incremental backup sets to restore your data.
