Fire up Seamonkey (or Firefox) and not only will you have all of your copied bookmarks, but it also recreates the -shm and -wal files. If you don't remove those files first and just overlay places.sqlite, then it'll create the places.sqlite.corrupt file when you start Seamonkey (or Firefox) and you won't have ANY bookmarks. So for now anyway, the solution is to delete (or "rm") places.sqlite* in the target directory before copying in your fresh copy of places.sqlite. Interesting. It seems to work so far in Mac OS X 10.8.5's newer web browser versions after copying my older versions. I'll probably upgrade my older web browsers soon after I am done with Christmas stuff. :) -- Merry Christmas (*<:)})/:) Birthday Jesus & Holidays! /\___/\ Ant(Dude) @ http://antfarm.ma.cx (Personal Web Site) / /\ /\ \Ant's Quality Foraged Links: http://aqfl.net | |o o| | \ _ /If crediting, then use Ant nickname and AQFL URL/link.

Yeah, that is how I always did it on mine. Obviously, when SM is not running unless I forgot to do that. I think I get denied if I try to copy it if it was in used. At least on Windows I can copy the file if it's in use. Interesting.
