All of a sudden I cannot bookmark websites.

I am running Firefox 3.6.12, with add-ons of Firefox Sync, X-Marks and Speed Dial (among others but I have a feeling it has something to do with one of these). Computer is running Windows 7, 64. The last couple of days - mostly today - I have been unable to Bookmark a site that I'm on (unless it's a site that's a Speed Dial). The bookmark window will not open up... period. When I go to manage my bookmarks and try to add the bookmark that way, nothing happens. I'm also running AdBlock plus, which I plan to disable and see if that does anything. Any help would surely be appreciated - I need to be able to bookmark websites! Thanks.
*update: After I initially submitted this question, I found that if I double clicked on the star in the address bar, I could add bookmarks that way. This morning, after rebooting from the night, I could bookmark from the drop down bookmark menu, but it just doesn't look right. Anyhow, I'm also going to look into the link for the sql files (or whatever it is... have to recheck my post... lol). Thanks!

This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • All of a sudden I cannot open websites from my desk top. I have to bookmark them in Google and open them from there. Any ideas?

    I just installed a new wireless printer but I was able to access web pages normally after I did that. The problem started the next day. The only web page on the desktop that works is Google.
    Thanks

    A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

    Microsoft Office 2004 (Word) unable to save files
    I have been running Office 2004 on my Intel iMac with Snow Leopard for some time and all of a sudden I cannot save a document. Word just stopped responding and I have to force quit. I can open Word and create a new document but I cannot save it. I reinstalled Word but that didn’t help. Then went to the Internet and found at least one other Mac user having the same problem which it suggests is caused by a recent Mac Security Update:
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macoffice2004-macword/word-2004-wil l-not-open-or-save-documents/b04eb870-9b0d-4f3b-bb47-b122301e36f6
    So I check for a new Mac Security Update and sure enough there was one. I downloaded it and now Word seems to be working, as it should. I can both open and save files. The only problem remaining is that when I open Word I get the following error message “An unexpected error occurred while trying to load the Microsoft Framework library”. I contacted Apple but they were unable to help.
    How can I get rid of this error message?

    Look, I realize you might have to get your machine working, so this is how you revert back.
    Restore proceedure to pre-Security Update 2012-001 v 1.0 & v 1.1
    #1 Backup your personal data off the machine.
    Backup files off the computer (not to TimeMachine). If you don't have a external drive, get one and connect to the USB/Firewire port and simply drag and drop copy your User folder to the external drive, it will copy all your files. It's best to have two backups of your data off the machine when trying to restore.
    Disconnect all drives now to prevent any mistakes from occuring.
    #2 Reinstall OS X 10.6 from disk
    Get out your 10.6 install disk and make sure it's clean and polished (very soft cloth and a bit of rubbing alcohol, no scratches) If your disk is borked, you'll have to order a new one from Apple with your serial number.
    Hold c boot off the 10.6 disk (wired keyboard, internal optical drive), use Disk Utility First Aid to >Repair Disk  of your internal drive  (do not format or erase!!), Quit DU and simply re-install 10.6.
    Note: Simply reinstalling 10.6 version from disk (without erasing the drive) only replaces 10.6.8 with 10.6.x and bundled Apple programs, won't touch your files (backup anyway)  or most programs, unless they installed a kext file into OS X itself. (only a few on average do this)
    #3 Update to 10.6.8 without Security Update 2012-001 v1.0 or v1.1
    Reboot and log in, update to 10.6.8 via Software Update, but EXCLUDE THE Security Update 2012-001 by checkinig the details and unchecking the blue check box.
    #4 Reinstall any non-working third party programs
    When you reboot, make sure to reinstall any programs that require kext files installed into OS X, you'll know, they won't work when you launch them or hang for some reason as they are missing the part they installed into OS X.
    If for some freakish reason you get gray screen at any time when booting (possible it might occur when you reinstall older programs), hold the shift key down while booting (Safe Mode, disables kext files) and update your installed third party software so it's compatible with 10.6.8.

    That's it really.

  • I have been working on a book and have 418 photos already in my book.  All of a sudden I cannot access the book format to see the multiple view, spread view, or single view.  I can no longer see my book although I still see the collection with 418 photos

    I have been working on a book and have 418 photos already in my book.  All of a sudden I cannot access the book module and clicking on the multiple view, spread view, or single view does not take me back to the book I have been working on.  I can no longer see my book although I still see the collection with 418 photos under collections.  What I do see is a blank template for a new book and I can't find the unfinished book I started with 418 photos.  It is like the new empty template is somehow covering it up.  How do I get back to the book I have been working on?

    Is it possible you mistakenly clicked on a [Clear Layout] button?
    But a great hint is- Always click on the [Create a Saved Book] button, early in your new book design.
    Then you have a permanent link to the book in the Collections panel. (In addition to the standard collection of your selected images)
    Note: a Book Collection shows an icon that looks like a book.
    Every time you come back to edit the book, open the Book Module by clicking on the white arrow that appears on the end of your Book Collection title. (The title as saved)
    Re-opening a book without using the "Saved Book" option can have unpredictable results.
    A "Book" Collection is like a "Smart Collection" because anything you do to the book design, change pages, change images, etc,  is automatically updated in the Saved Book collection.

    What do you mean it did not work!  What were the results of the diagnostic tests?
    Have you contacted your ISP to determine if the problem is on their end?  
    Have you changed your router channel?  Sometimes this resolves wireless problems.

  • I have Reader XI. All of a sudden I cannot print a document in Reader.

    I have Reader XI. I have a HP laptop with Windows 7 and a HP Envy 5530 printer. I was able to print from Reader last week. Now all of a sudden I cannot print. Not having printer issues except with Adobe Reader. Tried the suggestion to change security level in Reader. That did not work.

    I found this on the Adobe site.  Seems to be working for me...for now.  Needs to be set as Administrator and it works fine after that. Not sure why mine switched unless it was during some type of update.  Good Luck!!!

  • All of a sudden I cannot watch any videos using Firefox, not even from YouTube. Why?

    All of a sudden I cannot watch any videos using Firefox. All I get is a square black box. I can see them if I use Safari. Why isn't my Firefox working? What can I do? Thanks.

    Try clearing the Cache in Firefox.
    Tools-> Clear Recent History -> [v] Cache
    or Firefox->Preferences->Advanced->Network -> Offline storage -> [Clear Now]
    Try clearing the Youtube cookie in Firefox->Preferences->Privacy
    refresh page.
    If that still does not work then try making the youtube url as http'''s'''://
    It is apparently a issue with Youtube as people with other browsers are getting the same. http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/youtube/thread?hl=en&tid=3cda4dac122b8f13

  • All of a sudden I cannot log into my icloud account

    All of a sudden I cannot log into my Icloud account. Not on my phone and not on a PC. I found a thread that said the first step was to try to sign in to the apple ID to make sure I had my credentials correct. I have done that, so I know I have the correct credentials. My phone has been connected continuously for some time now including this morning. But now I get a connection error. Both on my phone and on the PC.

    Seems to be up and down at the moment.  For the past hour or so I haven't been able to access via the web or from mail apps (phone, desktop, etc.).  Some mail just came through on my phone but it now cannot connect again.
    FWIW, system status is green across the board, but that's always laggy and inaccurate: https://www.apple.com/support/systemstatus/

    Reboot your iPad:
    To reboot your iPad, hold down the sleep/wake button and the home button simultaneously until the screen goes black and the Apple logo appears. If, during this process, a slider appears on the screen to power it off, ignore it and keep holding the buttons down.
    Rebooting your iPad can solve a lot of problems. If this doesn't fix it, report back.

    This is very annoying. I saw and could read these files yesterday, but cannot today.
