I a struggling with this same issue which Firefox seems determined to make it imposable. I don't know any for sure answers, but I have an idea. It might be accomplished by the following steps.

1. Change the multiple profile names to the same name (should work as long as the different profiles are on different computers).

2. Use the 'SYNCH' tool as a way to then merge the multiple profiles on different machines.

I have not tried this myself yet, but in principle it should work.

Let me know what you think and I hope MOZILLA makes this experiment unnecessary by providing the users with a simple tool to merge our multiple profiles.

Enjoy, Nickfromspace

Can you email your favorites folder?

YES! Your favorites in Internet Explorer are nothing more than files in a folder. Firefox holds all of your favorites in one file. Specifics are as follows : Internet Explorer : Take the folder C:\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS\[USER NAME]\FAVORITES and zip it to a zip file using windows Zip, or WinRAR. Email that folder. It can be copied directly into a new favorites folder on another PC or user. Only duplicates will be overwritten. Firefox : Slightly more complicated. Navigate to the folder C:\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS\[USER NAME]\APPLICATION DATA\MOZILLA\FIREFOX\PROFILES\q9fkzms1.default. The file named BOOKMARKS stores all of your favorites in that single file. Opening it will show you. Email that file. Copying this file to the new folder WILL overwrite the existing file. I do not know of a way to merge these files yet, but I am sure there is. There is! all you need to do to add or back up your firefox bookmarks is go to the bookmarks tab up at the top of the screen, select organize bookmarks, and there you can import/export your firefox bookmarks as a firefox extension or as an HTML file

How do you remove a black screen on Firefox?

Follow below steps to remove black screen on firefox: 1. Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before reinstalling a fresh copy of Firefox. 2. Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop. 3. Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software. Note : Do not remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will also lose your personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions. 4. Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer. It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling. 5. Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox. 6. If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.


Is it merge in or merge into?

Merge into is more correct.


If WikiTree is supposed to be a single lineage-linked database why does there appear to be a tool to merge entire trees but not a tool to link individuals in other trees?

WikiTree is intended to be a single, worldwide family tree. Ideally, there should be one lineage-linked profile for every individual who ever lived. The merge tool does not merge entire trees, it merges individuals. When duplicate profiles of the same individuals are merged, they aren't just linked. They are fully combined into one profile.
