• I want to move the bookmarks to a no start Win disk (format jspn) to win 10 PC. The import dialog box wants html, not json format

  the motherboard on my old PC to WIn 7 has become damaged. I took the hard e drive: toward a new win 10 PC. I can find the Archives of bookmark on the old disk - files are in json format, but when I try to import the bookmarks file I can only find a way to import them into html format. How do I resolve this condition glare?

  If the file is in json format, then it replaces the current file.

  To open the bookmark, Manager press the ALT or F10 to rise
  the tool, then select bookmarks.
  Access key is < Control >(Mac = < Command >) < shift > B.

  Once the window is open, the top of the page, press the button
  Import and backup. Select export bookmarks to HTML and follow
  prompts and save it in a HTML file. Copy the file to another computer.
  Repeat the above instructions, BUT select Import Bookmarks in HTML,

  JSON files. Do as above, but select restore. The file must be in the
  Bookmarks backup folder.

• All IT gurus out there who know Firefox... have lost the passwords saved when FF created a new profile and delete old files key3.dbf and logins.json profile.

  All IT gurus out there who know Firefox... have lost the passwords saved when FF created a new profile and delete old files key3.dbf and logins.json profile. Any ideas, anyone?

  So it's not a logins.json file?

  I see a signons3.txt file and a file signons.sqlite older, if you can try to see if you can import passwords stored in this file.

  You can force Firefox to re-import the passwords in the file signons.sqlite and regenerate the file logins.json with the following steps:

  • reset the signon.importedFromSqlite pref on the topic: config page by default via the context menu
  • Delete the logins.json file in the closed Firefox with Firefox profile folder

  When you restart Firefox, then you should have the pref signon.importedFromSqlite with the value set to true.
  You have passwords that are imported in the password manager, unless there were errors or signons.sqlite signons3.txt.

  You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
  You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.

• Is it possible to recover the logins.json.corrupt?

  Yesterday, I lost all my passwords after a bizarre episode (see https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1085073 and https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1085300 ). I have a file logins.json in the folder of my profile with any passwords, I was able to rebuild, and in the same folder is logins.json.corrupt (27K, 24740 characters according to the Texpad, but none of them visible - blank page). This response (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1054932 ) - reset signon.importedFromSqlite, close FF, delete logins.json and re - open - did not work. But I have re-set 'value (user)' in signon.importedFromSqlite - maybe I should reset 'value '?

  Just checked - reset the value did not help either.

  You can check if there are previous versions of the files logins.json and key3db.

  • Right click: properties > Previous Versions

  • http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/previous-versions-of-files-frequently-asked-questions

  There is no way of knowing if you have a correct signons3.txt file.
  If it works, then you see the names in the password manager.
  Otherwise, you will see an error message or a blank password Manager window.

  Yes! Thank you 1 million. Get all of my passwords.

  For those who have found this answer: I opened my profiles, right-click on logins.json file, having consulted the "Previous Versions" property page He produced a list of three. In the list, right click on one of the last week, the option is useful that was 'copy '. Copied and pasted on the desktop, where logins.json recovered appeared. Then copied logins.json current profiles Safe Placez_ the (fair value), and then deleted the Profiles folder and replaced with the recovered version.

• I'm trying to import and backup/restore/Choose file... / after backup correctly and I see the file, but there is no JSON extension. What can I do?

  I'm trying to import and backup/restore/Choose file... / after backup correctly and I see the file, but there is no JSON extension. What can I do?

  I backed up my favorites using 'import and backup/Backup' on an external HD, installed Windows 10 and went to restore my bookmarks and noticed the file named "Firefox bookmarks-2015-09-04"had no extension and does not work."

  Please advise! Thank you! Sincerely, s

  If you add the .json extension, it works then? Why people who design browsers or extensions them do create files with no extension name, in spite that these extension names are essential to make the files can be restored? I could never understand that.

• Does not start, need more and more memory, then crashes. It is SOLVED by deleting DB, panacea.dat, foldertree.json CAUSE global messages: uknown

  As a user of Thunderbird long term (currently version 38.2.0 on Win7 x 86 US) today, I caught myself (negatively) by the following problem: at the launch at the start of Thunderbird, the window will appear last closed (and for a short while, I see my files, etc., as left behind, during the last closure of Thunderbird), but then it turns into State "Not responding" (nothing works). When we look in the Task Manager, I see that Thunderbird seizes more and more memory, before this date - after a few seconds - crashing. I really hope that for some help fast, if possible (I desperately need a solution for e-mail job well - ideally the one I had, i.e. Thunderbird with my settings).

  What I tried:
  -Uninstall Thunderbird and install it again (did not help)
  -Uninstall Thunderbird and install an older version (I tried 38.1.0, 38.0.2, and 31.8.0 - nothing has worked)
  -from Thunderbird in SafeMode (same problem)
  -from Thunderbird in safe mode of Windows (same problem)
  -from Thunderbird in offline mode (did not help)

  My main question to know how to solve this problem, includes questions such as
  ? Should I try to delete some files of Thunderbird and try again (which ones?)?
  ? Can I use a command line "tricks" to get Thunderbird started?
  Etc.

  Thanks for your help!

  I think I solved my problem: delete messages from global reach DB and panacea.dat foldertree.json helped - once Thunderbird started again interactively and now I can restore my data files/messages.

• Is there a way to convert the compressed files jsonlz4 in json?

  Hi, is it possible to learn how to properly restore a session of bookmarks via the jsonlz4 file? Firefox lost all my favorites, and when you try to restore using the recovery with the latest jsonlz4 file session the process simply does not end, starts but after a few hours, is still running, with warnings of continuos scripts held or stopped responding. Is it possible to do this correctly? Or a tool to convert the jsonlz4 compressed into json, perhaps html.
  Thank you.

  Well gentlemen: I definitely gave up; whatever the reason, the issue is not resolved. I stay with the old bookmark html, necessarily.
  Thanks for jscher and co - ADR efforts and goodbye.

• "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.

• differences in the use of a backup Favorites file ".json" and a file of bookmarks '.html '.

  Hi all
  What is the difference between the use of a backup Favorites file ".json" and a file of bookmarks ".html"? It seems that both of them do the same job. If this is the case, then why there are two options (.json and .html) to do the same job? If this isn't the case, then what is the reason for the availability of the two options and how are they different? Although I read the material, it didn't quite clear form me again. Please be so kind enough to elaborate on the question so that I can get a clear understanding of their good use (s).
  Thank you very much in advance for your time and skills

• 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.

• How can I recharge my favorites if I can't find the file "date.json" in my backup?

  If you have the latest version of Firefox, the file places.sqlite is what keeps your bookmarks. See the article for recovery of data from an old profile for more information.

• I want to restore my favorites but cannot find the .json file in my backup time machine.

  In fact, I can't find any folder named "Firefox" in the "Application support" folder backup library. It could be somewhere else? Thank you very much.

  I managed to get my favorites! OSX Lion automatically hide certain folders, also on the backup drive. Follow these steps to display hidden files: http://www.macworld.com/article/1051830/showallfinder.html. Copy and paste the last json in the bookmarksbackup folder (which is now visible) file on your desktop and replace it.

• I'm trying to restore my bookmarks from a json file, but I get "WARNING: script is not responding - Script: chrome://browser/content/browser.js:3580 ' message - please help

  I have no idea why will not restore my favorites. I am convinced that I even tried to reconstitute their at the time of the creation of the JSON to make sure they worked, and after that I was confident I left for a month or two then tried to recover, but it does not at all. I get the Script: chrome://browser/content/browser.js:3580 (script error unresponsive GSM) and if I click on continue or stop the bookmarks do not change their script. Please help - there are many favorites it I was counting on.

  I tried all the suggestions several times and nothing worked. I don't know if it's me or FF.
  Since none of the new backups worked, I went to my computer corrupted and copied the backup file of bookmark on a USB key. Then I stuck on my desktop. Went to 'restore backups', then to choose the file, then on the desktop. Fact. All bookmarks are copied in half a second.
  Problem solved, and I know what to do if it happens again. Trick is to remember.

• Firefox 29.0.1 is unable to process a valid backup .json file.

  After the upgrade to v29.0.1 my all my favorites have disappeared. I tried to restore automatic backups (I tried 10 different files), but every time I got an error message saying that ff could not deal with the backup file.
  The files were validated with json-trainer.

  I use a shared profile ubuntu 12.04 and win7.

  Try to delete the places.sqlite file to see if this has the effect, in which case the file is corrupted.

• Have only json bkmks prev FF 29 install, but now, how can I restore it as html? (Cannot find it in any menu FF.)

  I had to reinstall win 7 a few days ago. The old installation is Win.OLD. After installation in the new configuration for FF29, I tried to simply move the file bkmks of html into the Win.OLD file on the new system, but somehow, it was just another copy of what was on the brand new facility of and seq. Looking deeper, I was able to find old favorites in a json file in a folder bookmarksbackup buried in AppData and could tell from the date and the size it was in fact the old bkmks, saved from the eve of the new facility.

  I tried to find something here telling me how to 'restore' the json to html file, but everything that I could find that was bound, said only to "restore" the json file, but without any detail... so how do I do this? One answer given directions by using the menu of Firefox and using a restore feature, but what I have is the file/Edit/View/history/bookmarks/tools/help menu and the 'customize' page and it of functions, but cannot find anything on the restore/export/backup bookmarks. Am I missing a menu? Thank you!!

• Internal structure / JSON bookmark backup file specification

  My current version of Firefox is 28.0.

  What I already know, is:
  -backup of bookmarks (JSON) files are stored in folder
  "...\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ < xxxxx >. default\bookmarkbackups
  in the files like for example bookmarks-2014-04 - 27_770.json
  (or in any other place when you manually save).

  -only Favorites export files are stored in any place under HTML (XML) as a Netscape bookmark on your export demand.

  -the main difference between these two formats is that in the HTML ONLY the BOOKMARKS export file (URL / URI) and no. TAGS are stored.

  -the JSON backup file stores the bookmarks (Uri), tags and complete the structure of the tree. Firefox is therefore able to restore the menu bookmark complete with all its information.

  I do a lot of searching for information in internet. To support a work sophisticated with hundreds or even thousands of boomarks collected tags are absolutely necessary. And I often export bookmarks with tags to other browsers or social bookmark sites. So I have no idea why firefox doesn't support tags in the export files - because a large amount of bookmarks without tags is not easy to manage.

  My idea is to program a tool or an extension that reads a file backup JSON and constructs an HTML export file which also contains tags.

  The problem is that the internal structure of the JSON backup file is quite complex. It contains in fact 'id', 'index', information from 'parent' (fully digital) which allows to reconstruct the original directory structure. Same information on labels is somehow related to bookmarks. Actually the file has a complicated structure of lists and trees. And do not think that there is any identifier, e.g. "tags" which precedes the list labels attached to a bookmark (as in HTML export). In fact I could identify some of my tags in the file, but they are not named for example with 'tag' - I could identify them because I know they are some of my tags defined, but a program does not have this information and needs in General, identification tags in the file. Currently, I don't know any way to do this!

  Is there someone who has a better understanding of the structur of this file or know a specification that could be somewhere? Thans so much in advance...

  Tags are basically this structure if you are looking for backup bookmarks for tags JSON:

  {
   'title': 'Tags',
   'type': 'text/x-moz-place-container',
   'root': 'tagsFolder',
   'children': [
     {
      'title': '<tag title>',
      'id': <tag id>,
      'type': 'text/x-moz-place-container',
      'children': [
        {
         'title': '',
         'id': <id of child>,
         'parent': <parent id>,
         'type': 'text/x-moz-place',
         'uri': 'http://',
         'charset': 'UTF-8'
        },{ <more children> }
       ]
     },{ <more children> }
    ]
  },

  Note that easier to inspect a backup JSON is opening the file in Notepad, and then click the print enough to make Firefox display the file in the format.
