    Backing up FireFox Bookmarks

    Attempt 6. I thought I would post so I could then edit it but by the time I got finished it said I took too long and it deleted everything I had written tube... again. Trying to work on this website on the computer it's hard enough but on this tablet it's practically impossible. I think I'm on...

    Backing up FireFox Bookmarks

    Talkin about the original user me. I switched users and after a minute or so Malwarebytes open the same ready to download little window. There is nothing on the new user so there isn't anyway I know to see if it's working okay. Closed new user down and back to my old user me. Tried again to open...

    Backing up FireFox Bookmarks

    Firefox is not working bookmarks are still there but it keeps not responding. This is second reply what was the first I'm on a tablet someone loaned me and I'm not sure how to use it either. Malwarebytes said there was an update but something went wrong with it and it has pop back up at least...

    Backing up FireFox Bookmarks

    Would this be relevant - that I do have everything backed up on an external hard drive.? Of course except not FF Bookmarks. That's how I finally gave in and admitted that the FF backup and delete were not working. And of course now that I've spent hours upon days of going all of my bookmarks...

    Backing up FireFox Bookmarks

    I've been dealing with other stuff, so the break from this problem has been OK, though this morning I was a little concerned I had been abandoned. So, thank you for replying, no matter the delay. Hope the delay was fun for you, rather than being sick, or something like that. First, I don't know...

    Backing up FireFox Bookmarks

    Welcome to my world of confusion.... I was able to open the new account. FF wasn't on the desktop. (a lot of things like to "should" on me.) I went to the app store because that was about the only thing available, but FF wasn't there to download. Windows 8, didn't include my last name which is...

    Backing up FireFox Bookmarks

    I followed your directions, entered a simple name and easy password and clicked Finish. Then Log in under new User. It ran for a while saying, Installing Apps, Taking Care of a few things, Getting Apps Ready. MS Edge came up, I clicked Accept. It wanted a password, but when I entered the...

    Backing up FireFox Bookmarks

    I do understand it can be hard for someone who knows a lot of techy stuff to be specific in their instructions to someone like me. From what you wrote I was sure, you wanted me to make a new FF account, which I tried to do. No where in post #22 did you say create a new computer account. I am a...

    Backing up FireFox Bookmarks

    You wanted me to create a new account to see what FF would do. I wasn't sure how to do that, so I looked up how to create a FF account. And that's what I tried to do, create a new account but FF only opens the "old" account when I click on the icon. I don't know about on my computer, isn't FF on...

    Backing up FireFox Bookmarks

    I guessed I had to create a new email address, so I did. Took a while because the first couple wanted a cell phone number. Finally got that set up and then created the FF account. But I don't know that I ever created an account before. All I ever remember doing is clicking on the FF icon and it...

    Backing up FireFox Bookmarks

    Fortunately I learned my lesson from the FF Reset when I had to start over with FF, so before I even attempted to follow your first attempt, I scrolled down to what I would have to do to get my computer working right again and I found, "If the steps above don't work, you may need to reinstall...

    Backing up FireFox Bookmarks

    I click FF Bookmarks tab > (drop down menu, right at the top is) Show All Bookmarks (click on it) > Library Window (opens) > Import Backup Tab (click) > (drop down menu with both) Backup and Export Bookmarks to HTML. Between FF and the Snipping Tool not cooperating, the only snapshot I can get...

    Backing up FireFox Bookmarks

    So I would not get mixed up, I went through the process to Export to HTML. When I typed in the file name to save it “7 14 2021 Bookmarks”, the program did list suggestions of the previous file names I've used. Then, I did exactly as you said, (just so you can see I attached snapshot “File...

    Backing up FireFox Bookmarks

    Like I said in my last post: "Realized "This PC" doesn't have the documents folder so, back to File Explorer to "Library", searched for the file I created. The result is the file in Old Firefox data. Then I thought maybe Library isn't good enough, so I searched Documents. Same results." Or did...
