One of the Mac G3 Powerbooks I have been donated needs a new PRAM
battery. I bought a pack of 3v non-rechargeable lithium batteries
with the idea of making up a PRAM battery pack.
I am a little concerned that the PowerBook will try and recharge the
jerry-built battery pack and cause a
Depending on how many contacts you have in the backup it may take some
time. What I suggest is you close Address Book, reboot the Mac and then
restore again. Don't open Address Book before restoring, just click on the
backup file. Then go for a cup of coffee or something. When you get back

With the folder exchange, I tried replacing the old folder with a copy of the

dragged the new one in?

Hi Kevin,
Perhaps it's a bit confusing that lithium batteries come in both
rechargeable and non-rechargeable varieties. Definitely do not use

Just a note to say thank you for your very kind offer to store my Apple IIc.
As you have no doubt seen it has found a good home. The response

Thank goodness for TimeMachine: today I updated Firefox. When it opened, it
lacked all bookmarks and passwords. Why does it do this?

Hi Michael,
What version of Firefox did you update from?
After updating Firefox did you restart Firefox or restart your computer?
Firefox is known for Bookmarks not showing after an update until you
either restart Firefox or restart your computer.

Hi Michael,
If you uninstalled your version of Firefox using AppTrap, yes it would
have deleted your Profile.
It deletes all associated files as well as the application.
Firefox is best updated using the check for Updates download

Hi Ronni,
Yes, a lesson learned.
I must be a slow learner - I made the same mistake when updating to v3.5.2!
Quite obviously I have to make sure that when using MacUpdate to update
everything in the one session, I pause and think when AppTrap offers helpful
suggestions.

Hi Paul
Glad you got the AddressBook working, which was the same way Ronni had
suggested as well.
I would also agree that anyone doing a Snow Leopard update would backup
their data.
I would also go further and suggest people ensure that they've checked
compatibility of their apps they are
