Hi experts.
I'm running web dynpro java with portal environment, and trying to call [Add to Browser favorites] function of portal

Is this possible?
Thanks for your time.

I am not sure but maybe you can use the WDPortalEventing API to do this?

Can we get a "Add to Browser Favorites" URL from ABAP-side?

Hi,
via "Add to Browser Favorites", you can get a URL for opening exactly the portal page you are currently on. Is there any possibility
to get (or create/generate) the URL for such a page from ABAP-side? We have the requirement to send e-mails from the ABAP
backend with links (URLs) to a corresponding portal page (like the example below). This has to be done quite generic, mi.e. the server,
the port, the application parameters, etc. cannot be hardcoded but have to be generated in a generic way.
Thank you and kind regards,
Florian

Hi,
It is hard to know exactly what to suggest since I don't know the full story behind the process you are trying to implement. However I can make some suggestions:
1. Use short URLs. These can be configured in the portal and will allow for easier navigation. you will see this as a "quick link" parameter in the page properties.
2. Rather then hard coding any values use a configuration table in the ABAP system.
3. If the process starts in the portal you could have your portal application send the necessary data to the ABAP system so it could use it to generate the email (e.g. Server/Port/Parameters etc...)
4. If it is a dual stack system you may be able to leverage the co-existance of portal an ABAP on the same server.
5. What about using a web service on the portal to supply the URL to the ABAP system. You could call this web service from the ABAP and have the portal provide the data that way. This would be good if your process kicks off on the ABAP side and not via the portal.
Anyway, I hope some of those suggestions help.
BRgds,
Simon

"Add To Browser Favorites" for ABAP Web Dynpro

Hi All,
In the Portal Environment, the end user has an option to "Add To Browser Favorites". This will trigger the "Add a Favorite" window in the Internet Explorer and the user can save the favorite as needed. Do we have a similar cabapility in ABAP Web Dynpro if the Web Dynpro is not delivered through an SAP Portal?
Thanks in advance for your help.

No. There is no similiar option in the Web Dynpro framework, nor can you access JavaScript in order to interact with the web browser and supply this feature. Browser Favorites can be maintained by the NetWeaver Portal Framework or in the NetWeaver Business Client by the surrounding frame. In the case of the NWBC, it isn't actually browser favorites but a separate set of favorites merged with Easy Access Menu favorites.

Migrating media browser favorites from CC to 2014

Hi all,
Is there a way to "import" my media browser favorites as I upgrade to 2014?
I am still digging in the Library, preferences and common areas, but have not found a file specifically called media browser favorites or something similar.
I can rebuild, but now that you've given me favorites I have dozens...
Thanks,
Dan

From a quick test I did, the MB favorites are saved to the app preferences. That means that you should be able to migrate your prefs from CC to CC2014 through Sync Settings. I have no experience doing this, but I gather that in order for Sync Settings to migrate settings from an earlier version, you basically need to launch CC2014 in a state where no preferences for that version exist yet. If you've already been running CC2014, that would necessitate clearing the preferences. Also, I think, you had to enable the Sync Settings feature in CC so that the prefs from that version are stored in your Creative Cloud account, but honestly I'm not positive about that part.
To learn more, please consult the Migrate Sync Settings section here.

Java Script for Add to Browser Favorites

From what I understand the following script should work
within Captivate:
javascript:window.external.AddFavorite('
http://www.testsite.com',
testsite')">
Any feedback would be appreciated.

Welcome to our community
Sometimes JavaScript works better if stored as a function in
the corresponding HTM file Captivate produces. You then call the
function from Captivate.
You may also see where things are being blocked by the Flash
Player if testing locally. To ensure this isn't the case, take a
look at the tutorial linked below.

How to delete a shortcut favorite from the browser in the WORK Area

Hiho,
creating a shortcut favorite icon of a browser-website in the work area shows up a symbol to use this shortcut. In the private area I can delete this favorite-symbol by tapping longer on the icon an a trashcan shows up, so I can delete the icon (and the browser favorite from the private area). Not so in the work (buisiness) part of the BlackBerry, there is no possibility to delete this icon. I can't find a policy on the BES10 server or thomething on the Z10, any ideas how i can remove the icon?
Greetings... Ifrani

Hi Ifrani!
I´ve the same problem on my Z10!

Add Page to Browser Favorites

Hi all,
is there a possibility to bookmark portal pages, without the button in the page toolbar? Just by clicking on add to browser favorites in the Browser. The problem is: No matter which page is diplayed on the Browser I have in the Adress bar the URI:
http://ServerName:50000/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.portal.navigation.portallauncher.default
So if add this to my bookmarks, the portallauncher is added and not the page itself.
Thanks,
Billy

Hi Senthil,
I know what you mean, but unfortunately you can bookmark pages by clicking in the toolbar the button "Add to Browser Favorites" which creates a link something like this: http://ServerName:50000/irj/portal?NavigationTarget=ROLES://portal_content/administrator/super_admin/super_admin_role/com.sap.portal.content_administration/com.sap.portal.portal_content. That's fine for me, but I think there must be a "JavaScript" way to tell the browser to do his on his own, without the portal feature "Add to Browser favorites".
Cheers,
Billy

Is there a way to transfer "my favorites" from Internet Explorer browser to Firefox?

I just install Firefox on my computer where I have been running Internet Explorer. I want to transfer "my favorites" from Internet Explorer into Firefox. Can this be done? If so, how do you make the transfer?

CS3: Favorites from Bridge dont show up in Adobe Dialog

Favorites from Bridge don't show up in the Adobe dialogs of ID, AI and PS.
This issue was already reported here: http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.3bc3e4b8/12
with no solutions or workarounds to the problem. This function was very useful in CS2. I can help myself on a Mac but file handling is very annoying if you have to work with Windows (XP).
Anyone with a solution out there?
regards
dirk

It works differently in CS3 than CS2. From the file open dialog, browse
to where you need to be. Right click the folder and choose add to favorites.

Import Favorites from Easy AccessI to NWBC

Hi,
In NWBC 3.5, under personalization, there are 2 checkboxes to import your favorites from SAP Easy Access to NWBC. This would be great! However, to me those boxes are grey, I cannot change them.
What can I do?
Thanks,

First sync your Firefox for Android with Firefox Desktop via "Sync"... if you don't have add bookmarks to first installation on PC/Mac go in View/See Bookmarks (CTRL+uppercase+B); Click on "Import & Save" and for end "Import bookmarks by other browser"

I have followed instructions for importing favorites from Internet Explorer, but they do not show up in Bookmarks menu as shown in the support instructions.

I just downloaded Firefox 3.6 and followed the instructions for importing Favorites from Internet Explorer. Firefox said the import was successful, but the Favorites do not appear at the bottom of the Bookmarks menu (below "Mozilla Firefox") as shown in the Support instructions. Where can I access my Favorites?

You can usually find the imported IE Favorites in a folder ("From Internet Explorer") at the bottom of the Bookmarks Menu folder (Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks).<br />
If you can't find them in the "From Internet Explorer" folder then try this:
* Export the favorites in IE to an HTML file (bookmarks.html): File > Import and Export
* Import the HTML file in Firefox: Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Import HTML: From File

How do I add Panic Transmit Favorites to MobileMe's Sync Preferences?

I know that I just need to go to a folder but I'm not sure where it was. I thought that it was in the /User/Library/Application Support/Schemas folder, but I only see that on my MobileMe but not locally on my machine. Does anyone know where I can find the folder on the Finder in order to add my Favorites from Panic Transmit back into the Sync Preferences for MobileMe?

Be careful rephrasing Terminal commands so people don't put the extra text you added afterwards. It's just:
~/Library/Application\ Support/Transmit/TransmitSync.app/Contents/MacOS/TransmitSync --registerClient

Copy favorites from Windows 8.1 folder to Bookmarks

I just restored my backups from Carbonite to a new computer with Windows 8.1 (old computer was Windows 7) using Firefox. I kept a folder of my bookmarks in my documents. How can I get them into the new bookmarks? I found a folder called "bookmarkbackups" in my Profiles, but I don't know if I use that, or how to copy it to the current bookmarks. Or - is there a different way to do this? Thanks.

Regarding importing IE Favorites, you probably would have the best luck copying the contents of your old Windows Favorites folder into the new Windows Favorites folder. Then you can export an HTML-format file from IE and import that into Firefox.
Importing an HTML-format bookmarks file adds onto your existing Firefox bookmarks. But you need to do it after you do the restore mentioned in the earlier post, because a restore wipes out everything present in your Firefox bookmarks.
* Export favorites from IE to an HTML file: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/add-view-organize-favorites (Export Favorites is one of the topics listed at the bottom of the page)
* Import the HTML file into Firefox: Import Bookmarks from an HTML file
Success?

Firefox will not import all of the favorites from Internet Explorer 11 in Windows 8.1 64-bit OS!

There is another post about this problem in the forum, but the answer does not work. This is the first time I've ever encountered this problem when installing/using Firefox on my desktop PC. I have a new (3/25/14) Dell XPS 8700 desktop tower with Windows 8.1 64-bit (and now Update 1) installed, along with Internet Explorer 11. I previously had a 2005 Dell Dimension 5100 desktop tower running XP Pro SP3 32-bit, which never had any issues running Firefox, but has since died. I used to run Firefox as my default browser, but not any longer. Now, during the install process, Firefox asks if you want to import from Internet Explorer, as it has always done before. I chose yes, and it reported that it pulled everything in from IE. However, it only imported my favorites folders whose names start with a numeral, and then A, B, and onward down the alphabet, but it doesn't import anything more after getting to the folders whose names start with E. So, all of my remaining Favorites folders whose names start with F, G, and forward down the alphabet from there are all absent from Firefox's Bookmarks. I also tried importing the favorites after installing Firefox, which I don't prefer since Firefox installs a folder called Internet Explorer to go to first to get to your favorites. However, still, Firefox only brought in my favorites folders from A to E, and stopped there again. I do not see any way to export my favorites from Internet Explorer (there is no import/export option under favorites, nor anywhere else in IE 11). Uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox resulted in the same problem, even after making sure to delete my settings, etc., in the process. Please update Firefox's installation executable so it's able to import ALL of Internet Explorer 11's favorites folders and their contents, complete, as it has always done before. Please contact me when the corrected executable to install Firefox properly is ready for download. Thank you.

If there are problems with importing the IE Favorites in Firefox then export the favorites in IE to an HTML file and import that file in the Firefox Bookmarks Manager.
If you do not have the menu bar in IE then right-click the toolbar at the top to enable the Menu Bar.
*Export the favorites in IE to an HTML file (bookmarks.html):<br>File > Import and Export
*Import the HTML file in Firefox:<br>Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Import Bookmarks from HTML
