Walt. Thanks. I did this and I got the warning "UNABLE TO PROCESS THE BACKUP FILE". I tried this 3 times and the same thing. I also thought I would open up some sites on her Mac laptop and save them but I just noticed that they are not saved! I go to either BOOKMARK THIS PAGE or FILE BOOKMARK and nothing is saved on the laptop. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
