The Bookmarks and browsing history. In this it as a file called places.sqlite. From this you can get all the information which you need bookmark and the visited websites. And also the passwords. You can get the passwords in two different way as it is stored in two different files. The one is the key3.db in this file we can get the key database for your passwords. you have to copy the file along with the following file to get the transfer saved passwords.

The signons.sqlite file is used to save the passwords. If you want to get the additional information in sequence then you can view the identification passwords. And the file called Cookies cookies.sqlite is used to store the cookies. You can get addition information if you read the article on cookies. it also gives the information on how to back up your profile, how to restore a profile backup, and how to move your profile information to a different location on your hard drive or to another computer.

The recent version of the Firefox do not support the VoiceOver screen reader or the Mac OS accessibility APIs yet. It may be obtainable it the expectations version of Firefox. If you are using the JAWS then you can use the 7.1 or later. And as the same if you are using the Window-Eyes then you can use Window-Eyes 7 or later. If your screen reader just does not sustain or maintain Firefox 3. However, it works quite well with Firefox 3. There is no need to uninstall your other screen reader first, and you can always just back to your previous screen reader if you are not fulfilled.

You had seen that in the above Windows screen readers, you can find the way inside web pages is the same in spite of the browser. JAWS or Window-Eyes Quick Navigation keys, for example, all work the same in Firefox 3 as they would be in IE. Check your screen reader's certification on keystroke orientations for navigating virtual buffers. Here is one exemption, where there is a difference with other browsers, Ctrl+L is used to move to the Location bar to open an internet address (url), whereas Ctrl+O is used to open a local file through a standard File, you can open dialog box.

If you would like to find the bookmark then you can type some key words or parts of vocabulary into the address bar or the page which you have visited. For this you can use the down arrow to discover the list of matches. You have to preferred ones for the text you typed. The next time you type the same thing, items you have chosen before will be higher in the list. You can also add tags or a keyword to bookmarks to make finding.
