Import bookmarks from another computer firefox file will add to or replace the bookmarks firefox on the receiving computer?

I know this has been asked before but similar issues has been shown to me before were over a year old and the users were still on v3.n and since we are now on v16.n I thought I should probably ask just in case anything has changed. It seems that if I use a bookmarks HTML file then must be added instead to crush the bookmarks on the destination computer. Is this always the case? Thank you.

Import of bookmarks in a HTML file will merge bookmarks in HTML file in your existing bookmarks; you lose nothing, but it may result in bookmarks double if even the bookmark is already in your bookmarks and is also in the HTML file.

The restoration of a JSON file bookmarks won't replace your existing bookmarks.

See - http://kb.mozillazine.org/Backing_up_and_restoring_bookmarks_-_Firefox#Difference_between_restoring_and_importing_bookmarks

Other - you should check and update your plugins

  • Import data from another browser - only a few favorite IE9 are transferred in bookmarks. Solution HTML - HTML file all Favorites OK, but same result

    Win7 / IE9: use for the first time. Example: A folder of Favorites has 4 entries HTML - only 2 transferred. Some have none transferred - empty folder. Others have correct random + some disappeared persons.

    All of Monday
    I can see the full list of favorite IE9 HTML in HTML file on desktop with Firefox-> new tab-> open file-> open
    .
    In the desktop HTML file, there are 37 files IE9 with no more nesting 3 deep in all of a high. They are all correct wrt favorite IE9.

    All records albums + deeper nests are copied in FF ok. Random content. Copied content works ok

    7 unassigned to IE9 HTML web sites best records are also copied <-these 7 copy on FF and work well

    Example: First file in the list of IE9 has no nesting., IE9 has 4 entries - Firefox has only 2. What other method of reproduction is used.

    BTW - please let know us how I can delete entire list of bookmarks in Firefox button to try again with a clean list of bookmarks

  • I have different bookmarks I want to keep on each computer, synchronization will delete the bookmarks on a single computer and replace the bookmarks from another computer in their place

    I have not yet used sync, but I sense it's going to be a problem if I do. I have different bookmarks I want to keep it on each computer. Sync will delete the bookmarks on a single computer and replace the bookmarks from another computer in their place? So I think that will erase the bookmarks on the second computer you configured to synchronize. Is there a way to merge bookmarks on every computer in the library of a bookmark that contains all bookmarks on both computers, so I'm not all bookmarks in sync?

    Just to be clear, this is something that we have commented several times in the forum, Firefox Sync adds everything that is already in the device for the account and pushes this info for the rest of the devices.

    So if you have 2 computers with data X and the other with the data from there, once you set up synchronization in both computers you will have X + Y at the same time.

    I hope that clarifies the doubts...

  • Homegroup is very slow. Loading files from another computer is very long and I can't watch movies on the wireless using the homegroup.

    Group residential slow and other problems with it

    Hello!

    I have 3 Windows 7 PC-s (office #1, #2 desktop and laptop). I created HomeGroup and join all computers, so I can access the files on each of them. But my problem is the following: homegroup is very slow. Loading files from another computer is very long and I can't watch movies on the wireless using homegroup, because it is slow and every two seconds of loading film. And also needed a few minutes to open the pictures (more than 10 GB in all folders) to a folder in the other PC. Why is this work so slow? I don't think there is a problem with slow wireless router, because I can replace my old Linksys WRT54GL Linksys E4200, which is able to transfer video HD 3D such as Linksys provide. What should I do to fix this? Should I change all the settings in Windows, perhaps in the router...?
    And why my laptop is not always visible to the other PC to homegroup? He see two others and two other sees, but they are not portable. This happens sometimes. But then I still share with homegroup libraries to my laptop and there still other computers see it and all shared libraries. Where is the problem? I also try to change the HomeGroup services automatically, but this does not solve the problem.
    If I forgot something to write, or you need more information, do not hesitate to ask.
    I'd appreciate any help really.

    Hello

    Manually check manufacturers sites WiFi because pilots offered through
    Updates Windows will most often not be later (MS is far behind certifying)
    drivers and many manufacturers do not quickly submit newer versions or not at all). See
    Manual driver update of the methods below.

    The question could be WiFi in fact however try to device (hardware)
    update the driver first.

    What antivirus/security is used? Some of those who will cause problems with the
    Homegroup. Since it happens more often on a single computer that on there
    a check.

    From this link:

    Homegroup: frequently asked questions (also shows how delete and remove homegroup)
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/HomeGroup-frequently-asked-questions

    "Only people who belong to the homegroup can see shared libraries. You can also share libraries or files and individual folders with specific people in your homegroup, rather than share them with everyone. For more information, see libraries with your homegroup sharing and keep files and folders to be shared with a specific residential group. »

    Share files with anyone
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/share-files-with-someone

    ==================

    How to upgrade manually the drivers:

    Control Panel - network - write down of the brand and the model of the Wifi - double click top - tab of the driver - write
    version - click the driver update (cannot do something that MS is far behind the pilots of certification). Then
    Right click on the Wifi device and UNINSTALL - Reboot - it will refresh the driver stack.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

    Installation and update of drivers under Windows 7 (updated drivers manually using the methods
    below is preferred so that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are
    found)
    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

    Download - SAVE - go where you put it - right click – RUN AS ADMIN.

    You can download several at once however restart after the installation of each of them.

    After watching the system manufacturer, you can check the manufacturer of the device an even newer version.
    (Those become your fonts of rescue system manufacturer).

    Repeat for network (NIC) card and is a good time to get the other updated drivers as windows
    7 love the updated drivers.

    I hope this helps.

  • Import symbols from another .fla file

    Hello

    I've looked everywhere, until I got bored. Is there a way I can import symbols from another .fla file? For my game, I have a file named background.fla which has several origins and I want to import from it and modify it if necessary. Is there a way I can do?

    Also after I read if I want to import a .swf file in my main .fla it will lose all of its code, but I want to import a character and use it with gotoAndPlay() and gotoAndStop().

    I have a last question if you don't mind, I have the knowledge base of OOP and I know it's imposible: I want to create a class, create an instance of it in my main .fla and somehow this class controls the code in my main file. I found a way with timers, but it's pretty expensive on memory...

    Thank you for your time (^^)

    Yes, you can do it dynamically, too.  check the applicationdomain class.

  • How can I add old favorites from another computer to those that I have on my new computer?

    My old computer crashed; and was replaced by a new one running Windows 7. I had saved my favorites, but could not find the thumb drive where they were rescued, started using Firefox on my new computer. Now I have the bookmarks saved on my new computer, but want to download and merge my old favorites. I only found a way to restore the Favorites who will complete wipe the nine. Short to write all new and adding their return after the older restoration, is there another way to merge the two?

    Export your current Firefox bookmarks to an HTML file before you restore your old favorites.

    The restore process will replace your current bookmarks; import the HTML file will add bookmarks to extensions.
