Bookmarks are added even though I've not requested them.

Whenever I click on Bookmarks>Recently added a whole list of pages appear that I have not bookmarked. I then have to go and delete each and every one, one at a time. This is annoying, as it then takes forever to find my recent bookmarked pages. I can't find a help article to find the answer to this problem.

Are you sure that you haven't clicked the star on the location bar?
Problems with bookmarks and history not working properly can be caused by a corrupted places.sqlite database file.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Bookmarks_history_and_toolbar_buttons_not_working_-_Firefox
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Bookmarks+not+saved#w_fix-the-bookmarks-file
You can try to check and repair the places database with this extension:
*https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/places-maintenance/
* "Most Visited" and "Recently Bookmarked" are examples of the so called [[Smart Bookmarks folders]] and are not real existing folders.
* Such smart folders show a list created by a query of the places.sqlite database that stores the bookmarks and the history in Firefox.
* Smart folder lists show a maximum of 10 entries by default.
* Bookmarks that show up in a smart folder list are stored elsewhere in another folder and any changes made are applied to the real bookmark or history item.
* If you remove an entry then the list is shifted up and a new entry that wasn't shown previously is added to show 10 entries.
* If you add a new bookmark or visit a website then a new item is added at the top and the entry at the bottom disappears from that list.
* Items that disappear from the list are not gone, but merely do not show up anymore in that list.

  • TS4532 My iPhone V will not connect to a Microsoft Exchange server. It says that the User Name or Password are incorrect even though they're not and I can log on directly to Exchange using the web browser. The connection worked until IOS 6.1.2 was Install

    My iPhone V will not connect to a Microsoft Exchange server. It says that the User Name or Password are incorrect even though they're not and I can log on directly to Exchange with the same parameters using the web browser.
    I bought the phone when it came out last October. The connection did not work at first, then started without warning in December. It worked perfectly for 2 months then stopped again when IOS 6.1.2 was Installed.
    Help please!

    I have forwarded these questions about the version of Exchange server that is being used and whether Microsoft host the mai themselves to the IT Dept but I will not get a reply from them until tomorrow.
    In the meantime I have also tried:
    Deleting and re-creating the account AGAIN!
    And re-setting the phone (recommended as a solution to a similar problem with an iPad in another forum.
    But please remember that:
    The phone would not connect for 2 months after I bought it
    Then started working unexpectedly in December
    Then stopped working again when IOS 6.1.2. was installed
    Also why am I the only person affected by this when colleagues with iPhone 3s and 4s who use the same mail system are not (I am still trying to find one with an iPhone V to see if their's works).
    Like I said I think that there must be a fault, either with my own phone or with iPhone Vs in general.

  • Why Skype is pushing updates by force, even though I do not want them?

    Why Skype is pushing to force updates are forced to, even though I denied receiving automatic updates taking? Apparently, I have to throw the whole Skype landfill without doing anything.

    Are you sure about the more than one account? I'm running Windows XP Professional SP3. There is only ONE user account which I am using and I already checked "never check for updates". It just updated my Firefox automatically. I had to uninstall and download and re-install the older version again.
    Is there a fix by editing the Registry to actually disable the automatic updates?

  • My backed up files from iphone to my mac cannot be seen as they are, but only numbers and letters, they seem to be encrypted even though I did not click on encrypted when backing up

    I am using a Mac Book Air to back up my Iphone 5 on Itunes. What I can see of the files are encrypted even though I did not click on the Encrypt box.
    Please, help.

    Backups of an iPhone made using iTunes are stored in a format that is only meant for use in a restore and are not meant to be accessed directly. There are other methods of transferring things like photos and contacts to your computer such as iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer, iCloud: My Photo Stream FAQ, and https://www.apple.com/icloud/
    If you absolutely must directly access an iTunes backup there is 3rd party extraction software available such as http://www.wideanglesoftware.com/ibackupextractor/

    1 January 1970 appears in my contacts as a duplication even though I have not added them myself, is this a virus? What should I do?

    In my contacts, several contacts that I actually know have been duplicated using only the first name in this duplication. Also in the duplication, the birthday and  anniversary are listed as 1 January 1970. I have not made these duplications...they have just appeared. Does this mean I have a virus? And if I do what should I do? 

  • F.05 -   why the entries are being reversed even though I did not tick the

    Hi,
    Please advice why the entries are being reversed even though I did not tick the reversal button in F.05.
    Your assitance is very much appreciated.

    Hi,
    It is a standard SAP procedure by which the revaluation entries are automatically reversed. If you do not want to reverse the revaluation entries, you will have to Activate Delat Logic for the Valuation Area. SPRO Path is Financial Accounting (New)--> General Ledger Accounting (New) > Periodic Processing> Valuate --> Activate Delta Logic.
    Once you activate this Delta Logic, at the time of fc valuation, you will get the check box for Annual or Mid Term revalation will come. If you select the annual option, the automatic reversal will not happen.
    Regards,
    Amit

  • I just started using my iphone 5s. I have a problem with new incoming emails from my POP account. Why are they marked as read automatically even though I have not even opened them yet.

    I just started using my iphone 5s. I have a problem with new incoming emails from my POP account. Why are they marked as read automatically even though I have not even opened them yet.
    At first I thought it might be because I was using simultaneously my old iPhone 4S so it somehow realized the emails where being pushed to another device and the it marked as read, this has nothing to do since I have deleted the email account from the iPhone 4S

    Contact the email provider for assistance with their service.

  • When i send an imessage to another person with imessage, my husband also receives the message, even though it was not sent to him.   We have always been on the same itunes account and not had this problem, however, when i added the ipad, this started.

    When I send an imessage on my ipad to someone, my husband also gets the message, even though he was not selected as a receipient.  This just started when I got my ipad and sent a message for the first time.  As a side note, my daughter received an itouch and both my husband and i were getting all messages she sent, no matter which one of us they were sent to.  I turned her imessage off.  We have all of our devices under the same itunes account so that we can share all music and apps.  How can we get around this?  I do not want him receiving all imessages that I send, this will get very annoying to him.

    You can have a separate AppleID only for iMessage and keep using the other one for iTunes.
    Just change the AppleID used for iMessage in Settings > Messages > Receive At

  • When closing Firefox, after reopening it, my tabs are gone, even though I have Firefox set to remember session.

    When closing Firefox, after reopening it, my tabs are gone, even though I have Firefox set to remember session. However, after several hours and opening and closings of Firefox, it will open tabs from the old session, for no apparent reason.

    You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox profile folder that store session data.
    Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox profile folder.
    *Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Multiple_profile_files_created
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost and you will have to recreate them (make a note or bookmark them if possible).
    In case you are using "Clear history when Firefox closes":
    *do not clear the Browsing History

  • I have a macbook pro version 10.7.5 and my mailbox will not open at all and comes up with a quit message even though it is not open. how can i get into my account. it works on my iPhone an i have internet and all other functions working on my computer

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Step 1
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    In the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports (not "Diagnostic and Usage Messages") for crash reports related to the crashed process. The report name starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot. I know the report is long. Please post all of it anyway.
    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
    Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

  • When trying to logout, I keep getting "the application safari canceled logout" even though I am not in Safari. This only recently started happening and I'm wondering if it is a setting issue or bug. Can someone tell me what to do?

    When trying to logout, I keep getting "the application safari canceled logout" even though I am not in Safari. This only recently started happening and I'm wondering if it is a setting issue or bug. Can someone tell me what to do?

    You don't have to be "in" Safari for it to cancel logout.
    You have several different Applications open, and any one of them may cancel logout if conditions are just right.
    Quit the Applications you are no longer using and your Mac will run better and faster. And it will logout instead of cancelling.
