Software :: Importing OSX Opera Bookmarks To WinXP?
Feb 16, 2009
So I backed up my Opera Bookmarks rigorously in case the Mac died. Well it died. And since I'm using a WinXP machine for the time being I'd like to bring those bookmarks over to the PC. The problem is they are in a .hqx format and I don't know how to extrat it. I tried WinRAR and 7zip without success. Of course I realize now I should have saved them as a HTML file... Then I think I could have brought them over with no issues. Please confirm if possible. And if you have any ideas (both my Macs are dead for the time being) on the bookmark thing, please let me know. All the other files are ok - text files have some glitches but most are fine. The ones with glitches have to be resaved in RTF format. If course the least important (.avi) play perfectly!

I use both Opera and Firefox. I recently had problems with Opera and switched to Firefox for a while - got to like it.
1) Is Firefox any safer than Opera? It is at least as fast plus it has some very nice features.
2) Is there a way to bring over all of my Opera bookmarks into Firefox?

I'm a brand new Mac user! How do I import bookmarks from Safari to Opera? I saw one response to access the file bookmarks.plist in Library, but this file is not there;i.e. Library>Safari does not exist. I have been able to retrieve the file bookmarks.html - can I use this?

MacBook Air, Mac OS X (10.7.3)

This is really odd. Occasionally when I open a torrent file, instead of Transmission (default) opening, Opera opens the torrent. How can that be? I don't have Opera. I've never installed Opera. I never thought about installing Opera. The crazy thing about it is it works (it loads up websites) but when I search for it in AppCleaner and in Spotlight, it's nowhere to be found. How is that possible? How can a program that I never installed be working on my computer?

when I open a .torrent file on my MBP, the default application that opens it is Opera. I never installed Opera. I can't see Opera in my Applications and spotlight can't find it either .

After using Firefox and many others on the Mac, it's now my default browser. It's the only browser that's in the dock, actually. But I have a complaint about it.On a MacBook, the screen isn't wide enough for all of my bookmarks to show up in the bookmarks bar. The "bookmarks" menu in the bookmarks bar is hiding the last bookmark I have. How do I get rid of that? The top menu already has a bookmarks pull down menu.

After my recovery drive went missing and trying to reinstall it, had to do a format of my hard drive and reinstall everything once I got OS X reinstalled and up-to-date, I tried to import my bookmarks from a backup bookmarks file, when I quit safari and re-open safari bookmarks were missing and default ones back in place. When searching though the forums for how to fix this problem but too know unluck they did not work.

I have an old G3 pismo with OSX 10.3.9For the moment My girlfriend uses FireFox and I use Safari...so I dont have to keep signing in and signing out everytime i want to check my mail.BUT the last compatible Safari for Panther is 1.3.2 which recently seems to be opening less and less stuff... I've heard that Opera is a pretty good browser... Will it work on Panther and how much space does the App take up on the HD. And lastly any problems running the 3 of them untill I decide that its worth changing...then if so, how do I throw out the old Safari app.

So, how many GB should i put to my windows side?

I have tried multiple times to install and run Opera 10 on Snow Leopard on my 2007 MBP but it just won't work. The programme installs but on trying to open it, it either sits not responding or quits unexpectedly without even starting. I can't find any logical reason for this and there is no word of this on the Opera site.

Which internet browser is the most battery friendly on OS X? I currently use Safari (obviously you'd think apple would make a battery-friendly one), but I was wondering if there was another good browser. I know chrome is pretty battery intensive, which is sad, it's one of my favorites. How is Firefox and Opera and such?

My Safari keeps quitting unexpectedly with the notice "while using .OperaWebBrowser.tmp". I have never downloaded this Opera plug-in and I cannot find anything like it in my Downloads.

I have several multi-CD opera albums loaded into iTunes for Mac. I've merged them (same album name, marked as part of a compilation, though I've kept the individual CD #s and track #s) so that each opera shows as one album in iTunes. I've also set gapless playback. This works fine for tracks within each of the opera's discs (i.e. no gap between track 2, 3, 4 etc.)
I'm still hearing gaps when iTunes moves from one CD to the next (i.e. between the last track on CD 1 and the first track on CD 2). The gap is about 5 seconds and seems to occur whichever opera/ set of CDs I playback. Is there a way to eliminate this? I don't think this gap is native to the CDs themselves as it occurs across tracks that are part of the same act/scene. I'm using the latest version of iTunes and this refers to playback on my Mac.

Is this possible?
The only copy of windows XP i have is pre SP2. I tried to install this last night via boot camp, but after spending hours installing and loading the drivers from the mac disc, not all were installed. Then I was hardwired to my router to run windows update to get SP2/SP3 I could not for the life of me get the 3 drivers to install.
Ethernet controller, although the ethernet port worked. Bluetooth driver, cannot find the driver on the Mac disc VGA driver, cannot find the driver on the Mac disc
I also don't seem to have a wireless connection or even an option to use my wifi card on my macbook with windows.
The macbook is a 2010 unibody, white.

Yesterday I had no problem using IE within Parallels. Now, I can't access the Net no matter what I do. IE isn't working, I can't sync Outlook and some other programs are giving me Time Out errors because they can't connect. To correct, I've tried changing from NAT to Bridge and Host, no dice. I've tried restarting the Windows OS. I've tried closing and reopening the VM. I've tried turning off an on the Airport connection within MacOS. As a side note, I have no problems accessing the web on the Mac side.

My first Apple, an iMac, should be arriving in the mail any day now. In anticipation I'm wondering, among many other things, how you can transfer all the tabs that you have in Firefox from a Windows XP PC to Firefox in Snow Leopard?

I recently bought an iMac, and have just successfully installed the trial version of Parallels5. I have my Windows XP product key from the Dell PC on which WinXP was installed circa 5-6 years ago. It seems to work fine, as the little Windows XP Virtual Machine box shows up all right. No mention of the key being invalid or out of date. However, when I try to activate WinXP I continually get the message that no operating system has been installed. Even though I went through the steps in the instruction document, both by inserting the XP Service Pack 3 DVD or trying the networking option.
Several attempts to get XP running have failed. Wondering whether I should uninstall P5 (and whatever WinXP data might be lurking) and reinstall everything (including another attempt at WinXP), or is it a bitter fact that I'd need a new copy of WinXP in order to work with Parallels5 on my iMac? (I mainly want to be able to work with Band-in-a-Box, which I bought last year for use on my PC.)

I was wondering if anyone knew how to make a WinXp installtion cd on a macbook. The family computer is a PC and it wont boot up and we cannot find the installation disc. I know I can download it of the windows website but its a .exe file.
I was wondering if there was anyway to download it onto a macbook (only other working computer in the house), and save it onto a Cd Rom to then use to start up the PC?
