How do I copy Firefox bookmarks between users on the same computer?
I created a new user, opened Firefox, and there are only the default bookmarks. There is an “import” function, but it only offers to import Internet Explorer bookmarks. Is there any way to copy/import between users on the same machine?
Michelle answers:
If you have Windows XP:
On the old user.
1 – Start–> Run
2 – Type Application Data and click OK.
Copy Mozilla folder.
On the new user
1 – do step 1
2 – delete Mozilla folder and paste the Mozilla from the Old user.
If you are using windows vista
Type AppData instead of Application Data and go to Roaming folder

How can I make firefox to prompt me for what to do with a file instead of automatically downloading?
Right now firefox automatically downloads an mp3 and opens it. I want it to prompt me with the dialog box so I can choose where to save it. I’ve looked in options->downloads->view and edit actions and there is nothing set there that I can change.
Michelle answers:
Tools > Options >
Content > Manage button.
Select mp3’s and click the change action button.

How do I get Firefox not to block the installation of farmville toolbar, Allow did not work?
I follow all the installation instructions, after downloading, but Mozilla Firefox blocks the installation.
Michelle answers:
Options –> Security.
Un-tick the first 3 and try again. I highly recommend ticking them again once it’s installed though.
