If I do a backup of my favorites, or export them as html, Windows 8, I can use the file in linux?

I am moving from windows to linux and I want to keep my favorites

Hi anderhm, yes the bookmarks.html file you can export work cross-platform. You can also migrate to other data and customization of your firefox profile: retrieve data from an old profile

  • System Restore (with backup) for Windows XP how to restore the files from here?

    I saw the other posts for this but they have not answered the question. When I look in the C drive, and open the folder backup (backup C:\My--01/12/23 1134 AM), my photos, videos and documents are not available or are invisisble. When I tried to make hidden files visible, all my desktop icons and all the Start Menu program buttons disappear. I can see the files when I search with a software such as jdiskreport - 1.4.0, but I'm unable to move with this program. When I tried to move them with jdisk... they is locked in the tree of files of jdiskreport. Whenever these trees of missing or file icons has locked, I had to restore to the good previous restore point. In my view, the full restoration of the system (with backup) fails and should be avoided at all costs.

    So, if someone knows a way to access these files, I would appreciate the help of course. And please, no answers don't like "cannot not you just copy and paste?" because it is not currently a solution until the files are visible without erasing my desktop and the Start Menu.

    Hello

    Select the advanced restore options to restore the files. See the steps in the following article.

  • Restored HD from a Time Machine backup of my old iMac (stolen) from my new MacBook Pro.  Not all the files have been restored.

    My iMac 27 "(2011) so my wife 13 '' MacBook Pro (2011) were recently stolen after our House was robbed.  My wife got a new MacBook Pro and I restored it successfully its data (selected "backup restore Time Machine" during the installation of its new MacBook Pro).  However, I also got a new 15 "MacBook Pro in lieu of the iMac 27".  I have, once again, selected "Restore from Time Machine backup" (selected the iMac as the backup source) when installing my new MacBook Pro.  When it was finally over, I told Time Machine to inherit from the backup.  Unfortunately, none of the files in the My Documents folder or the photos in my photo library have been restored.  Was it a bad idea to try to use the backup of the iMac as a source for the MacBook Pro (both running El Capitan)?

    is it possible that your documents are stored on another drive which was not part of the backup plan? or is the HD in the big enough MBP to inherent the old backup.

    If you open the time machine with the original backup disc, you should be able to browse the content

    If the files are found, you can restore by right-clicking (or CTRL + left mouse)

    I have never used files back to the top... just try to get a few suggestions and advice on the best way and the easiest way. CD RW how will I need to start? Will I continue to use the same CD - RW over and over or willl I have many different dates? Any help I can get will be greatly apreciated
    Thank you

    The easiest way is to use the built-in backup and Restore Center. Here are two tutorials: http://www.vista4beginners.com/How-to-backup-your-data, http://www.ehow.com/how_2058419_backup-files-windows-vista.html. As for the number of CDs you need, depends on how many files you have. I would recommend DVD if possible because they are less expensive for the amount of storage they provide.
    You will be able to reuse the disc until it is full.

  • where favorites are saved so that I can save the file?

    in IE8, I could save my favorites in case I needed to recharge the system. I wish I could back up my bookmarks Firefox in the same way.

    Go to help > troubleshooting information, and then click Open containing folder. Which will open Windows Explorer in your Firefox profile.

    You can then see the places.sqlite file that you can save with Firefox closed.

    There are also automated under the bookmarkbackups folder backups.

    Finally, you can export your favorites through the Firefox UI: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+and+restoring+bookmarks#Manual_backup

  • Firefox does not open, and when I try to use the "run", it says that the file has been moved, etc. I use Windows 8 and I can't lose my favorites. Help?

    Firefox has been great to work on my computer for months and then suddenly he could not load pages. So, naturally, I restarted my computer, but when it restarted Firefox does not open. The icon lights for a bit as usual, then it fades and never actually opens. When I try to use the "run" command, I get this error:
    "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\ refers to a location that is unavailable. It could be on a hard drive on this computer or on a network. Make sure that the disc is inserted correctly, or that you are connected to the Internet or your network, and then try again. If it can't be located, the information may have been moved to another location. »
    I also tried the same thing for the file in the x 86 folder, but it gave the same error and I went and looked for the files in the given location and they were there.
    Firefox is not to fall down, so he isn't there an other error message, I can give you.
    The things that I had my favorites are really important, I can not lose those, but I am fine with anything else have to re-installed, etc..
    Help please?

    I've never tried it myself, but the forum has a series of measures for a "clean reinstall" Firefox. Even if you do not delete the record of your personal settings (AKA profile) during this process, a backup of this folder is always a good idea in case something goes wrong.

    Some Firefox problems can be solved by performing a clean reinstall. This means that you remove Firefox program files, and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:

    Note: You can print these steps or consult them in another browser.

    1. Download the latest version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org office and save the installer to your computer.
    2. Once the download is complete, close all Firefox Windows (click on quit in the file menu or Firefox).
    3. Remove the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
      • Windows:

        • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
        • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox
      • Mac: Delete Firefox in the Applications folder.
      • Linux: If you have installed Firefox with the distribution-based package manager, you must use the same way to uninstall: see Install Firefox on Linux. If you have downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.
    4. Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
      1. Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.
      2. Once the wizard is completed, click to open Firefox directly after clicking the Finish button.

    Please report back to see if this helped you!

  • is there a way to send my favorites to me so I can use it to restore my bookmarks if I have to reimage my computer

    I had a virus on my computer so I had to reimage, destroying everything and starting again. I lost all my favorites (Fortunately, I wrote them down before etc.). Is it possible to send me a file that contains my favorites, I can then use to recharge my favorites?

    Yes. Actually, there are dozens of ways to do it using the 3rd party addons, applications and web-based solutions. But if you want to keep things simple and just use the built-in features of Firefox:

    1. Open your bookmark manager window by going to "Bookmarks" > "Show all bookmarks" (or just press 'shift + Apple + B').
    2. At the top of the window, you will see an icon 5-point with a small symbol of recycling on her star. (See attached screenshot). Click on that and you will see five options. Both you want are: 'backup... ". " (which creates a .json file) and "export bookmarks to HTML... ". " (which creates a .html file). You can find more info on the two options (for example when using that) here: [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Backing_up_and_restoring_bookmarks_-...]
    3. Now that you have your bookmarks a portable format, you can send the file to yourself, store it in the cloud, keep a copy on a flash drive - or whatever your preferred method of file backup / redundancy.

    Hope that helps!

  • iTunes won't let me use the backup

    Today, I got the 6 s, and I'm trying to restore from a backup of my 5s I made earlier today. However when he gives me the options for backups I don't see that I'm looking for. When I plug the s 5 it is said that the last backup of it was today and when I go into preferences back to top shows there. Is there anyway that I can use the back up? Thank you.

    Chances are your new phone is not being updated, so that it cannot find the backup that you did on your most recently updated device.

    Ex: If only your iPhone's iOS 9.1, backups performed in this version is unusable on phones that are not updated to this version.

    Solution: Update your phone! You will have to set up as new, update, then go to settings > General > reset > erase content and settings to reset the phone to factory settings, and then restore from backup!

  • Try to restore the files after replaced HD, 'backup location is not available' despite having backup full

    New HD installed and have all my backup files. When I use files restore - advanced restore - they are on an external hard drive, it is said first that the backup file is not available, although I can see all the files on the hard drive. Then asks me to create an account with the same name that my old account, she wants one with a / symbol in there, but said then I can't use symbols. The only way I can get the files to cross is to choose a different location to save in but then of course they are not anyone is easy to use... I would like that all of the images in the photo file, all the music in the music file, etc..  Also as I have many back ups I don't know which of the back ups to install - latest seems to have only the files that have changed since the last backup... what I need to install the oldest and the newest? or all of them? and I'm supposed to now spend hours finding all files and moving them to the right places? Guess that's what an automatic backup system was supposed to avoid...

    You use the option "files from a backup made on a different computer? Although it is the same computer, the fact that Vista has been reinstalled means that it may seem as if it isn't.

    The DELL PC anne/anne account that is specified is actually the name of the computer before the slash, is anne DELL PC and the user name after, Anne. The computer name was changed when has been reinstalled Vista?
