Hi Barbaz,
Whew...it would appear that one obstacle after another is thrown before me but I'm determined to get through this.
Ok, so I tried to import my "Samfind" bookmarks by following your instructions to no avail, but I also wanted to tell you a few things I encountered. Unfortunately, my old profile didn't have an xpi file to think within the extension folder but I did however find 2 "xpi" files as follows.
jid1-JcGokIiQyjoBAQ@jetpack.xpi
jid1-Rm4h1P3jB1IL4w@jetpack.xpi
BTW, I was only able to cut-n-paste these "xpi" files by going into the properties which wasn't bad for a rookie novice like myself. hahahaha..
Any attempts to import them by either drag-n-drop or otherwise proved to be fruitless. This was quite disappointing in light of not having the "xulstore.json" in the old profile which I presume would've made this whole process a lot easier. SO, what I did was from the old profile I exported all of my "Samfind" bookmarks to a document in the HTML format and from there I tried to drag-n-drop the bookmarks to the Samfind toolbar also to no avail.
Now, here is where it gets interesting because while I had the html bookmarks for Samfind open only the "No Google Analytics" extension successfully downloaded, despite it already being in my extensions. Oh, and BTW I did follow your recommendations to check and see if the "add-ons" was turned on in the manager which was confirmed to be on.
At any rate, I made another attempt by trying to drag-n-drop the aforementioned "xpi" files to the SamFind toolbar and got a message stating "the files were corrupted." So, since I don't have the expertise to figure this out, I"m hopeful you will continue to have patience and get me through it, pretty please.
Many blessings,
Cowboyfan
