    FEBE Backup not working for me??
    « on: September 06, 2011, 07:13:26 PM »
    Hi I have a Desktop computer with Win XP Pro Sp 3. I use Firefox 99% and have FEBE backup.

    I want to backup all my bookmarks from my desktop now and transfer them to my laptop/s eventually.

    I am trying to use the Firefox addon, Febe, to backup, but it doesn't seems to be working at all?

     I am trying to save the back-up on a 16 Gig USB drive and have created a folder on the drive for it. Simply called "Febe Bookmarks Backup".

    I have told Febe to send the data (save it to) the E: drive in that folder.

    However when I run the application, the box comes up and the operations bar keeps traveling across the length of the box continually but has taken forever and does not complete.  ??? :'(

    I would have thought it would be quite a simple and quick operation to do this backup, but my attempts seem to hang and never complete. There is more than 75% space available on the USB.

    Can someone please advise as to what it is that I might have done, that is incorrect and let me know how to complete this task.


    Thank you ImnoGuru.
    It takes 15 years to become an overnight success & Windows 10 will add another 10 years to it.

    Use MozBack instead...
