Bookmarks not sorted into folders disappear when trying to manage bookmarks

I have a fairly large number of bookmarks I want to sort into folders.
I also have a number of existing folders with bookmarks in them.
When I go into the Bookmark Manger the folders appear, I can access and edit their contents, but the unsorted bookmarks are not visible for me to move into appropriate folders.
Running Firefox 3.6.8 on WinXP-SP3. Earlier versions of Firefox
[ up to 3.0] did not have this problem.

  • Iphone 4 went into recovery mode when trying to restore, only option available now is to "restore and update" however this will not work, how can you restore from a backup once in recovery mode and only option is "restore and upgrade"? Please help!

    iPhone 4 went into recovery mode when trying to restore it. Now the only option iTunes allows is for "restore & upgrade", it is not offer an option to restore from a backup, says that must first do the upgrade, when attempting to do the upgrade the iPhone won't accept it.
    How can I restore from a back up in recovery mode when the only option is "restore and upgrade"?
    Please help.

    You don't you must restore your phone first and then you will have the option to restore from your backup.

  • I am running Lion 10.7.2 and I have an external drive hooked to my time machine. I can't rename folders and when trying, I get an error code 8076. The checkbox "ignore permissions for this device" does not show on volume info. Help please???

    The TIme Machine volume does not have that checkbox.
    I think the issue is with your Finder...
    Go to Finder "Go" menu hold the option key and choose Library. Then go to Preferences trash these files:
    com.apple.finder.plist
    com.apple.sidebarlists.plist
    Then, restart, or log out and in again.
    (You will have to reset a few finder prefs the way you like them.)

  • I am not receiving the verification email when trying to add an email account

    I am not receiving the verification email when trying to add an email account to facetime and iMessage. Is there something else I can do?

    Hi,
    I don't ever remember getting an email when Adding an account.
    Apple seems to verify it some other way (a self test to see if it is valid ? an actual email ?)
    I tried adding an older @mac.com account that is not a valid email (gained when MobileMe was the Apple service and the @Mac.com registration was used for iChat names).
    I then tried  to add a Yahoo one.
    This got past the first part and said an email has been sent.
    As you say this has never arrived.
    ( checked the web Site for Yahoo Mail as well as my Mail App.)
    In each case I also checked the Spam and Junk folders in both places.
    I then tried an iCloud ID.
    (FaceTime seems to treat the Original Apple ID and the iCloud issued email as separate IDs)
    I did not get and email (Although it said it was sent) I did get a Pop up for the FaceTime app asking if I wanted to add an email and a second for the actual email itself.  (It turned out it added an @me.com email also issued by iCloud before the @icloud.com was issued.
    This is much the way iMessages adds emails when you add the emails to  an iPhone, the Mac version gets pop ups.
    I recently had something similar in Messages that might be related.
    In Messages 7 (Mountain Lion) it seemed it could be any Apple ID that was used.
    In Messages 8 it seems this has to be an iCloud linked one.
    The @mac.com one I used above could not be added to iMessages either when I tried it about two months ago.
    It might be one I have removed the creating/Recovery email so that i could create another Apple ID.
    The name continues to work in Messages as an AIM valid screen name but I could not add it as the iMessages account and got sent to iCloud to "register" it but ran into problems that I have not sorted out yet.
    EDIT.
    Checked the Apple ID site and the @mac.com email I used has no linked Alternative/recovery email.

  • Run time error when trying to import bookmarks from firefox

    When trying to import bookmarks from Firefox to Safari I get the following error message: "Run Time Error. This application has requested the Runtime  to terminate it in an unusual way." Safari does not function anymore and I have to close it. Can somebody help me? I am using a PC with Windows 7.

    In the Bookmarks Manager (Library) there is a toolbar with the Back and Forward button and three other buttons (Organize, Views, Import & Backup).
    * The first (gear) button is the Organize button with basic edit menu items for bookmarks
    * The second button is the Views button that allows to change the sort order for viewing purposes (doesn't sort permanently).
    * The third (star) button is the Import & Backup button that allows to backup and restore a JSON backup and import and export an HTML backup and import bookmarks from other browsers.
    Hover each button to see the tooltip or click each of them to see what they do.

  • I can create folders, but when I try to bookmark a page those folders don't show.

    I have created a folder in my bookmark tab, and moved bookmarks into it. When I bookmark a site that I want to have in that folder, I have to create it, then manually move it into the folder since none of my "custom" folders appear when I create the bookmark.

    Ok, I made a new profile (successful since I had none of my bookmarks etc). I clicked on Bookmarks and then right clicked to make a new folder (Test). Then I went to bookmark the open page and the folder named Test was not there. So I chose the option for New Folder and created Test 2. I then placed the bookmark in that folder. When I then open Bookmarks from the toolbar Test was there but not Test 2. When I click Bookmark This Page, I can see Test 2 as an option below Choose...
    I hope that makes sense.

  • Pasted image into gmail disappears when using Safari

    Pasted image into gmail disappears when using Safari
    I recently upgraded to Mavericks (after having a lot of seemingly unrelated trouble with my Macbook Pro (early 2011))
    Since then, when I create a new message in gmail, and paste in a screen shot (captured with command-control-shift-4), the image shows up nicely.  But after I hit send, the image disappears.  It doesn't show up to the recipient, and when I look at my sent mail, it doesn't show up there either.  There's nothing, no icon showing where the image should be, just empty space in the message.  This seems to happen in Safari, but seems to works fine when creating the message in Chrome.  (please, restrain yourself from telling me "Duh.  Use Chrome." I know it's tempting, but my computer has some issues and Chrome doesn't always work.)  If I create the same sort of message in Chrome, and then go to Safari gmail, I can see the image just fine.  So it appears to be something about keeping the image attached to the content of the message while sending (vs. a viewing problem).
    I know when Mavericks was installed, I had to install something in Safari for Adobe docs to show up again.  Is there something I need to install so that images will stay attached to the content of gmail messages again?
    Thanks

    After you click Download (the attachment) from your Safari menu bar click Window / Downloads.
    Right or control click the file in the Downloads window then click: Show in Finder
    I'm not sure if you can designate another folder for downloading web based attachments to, however, instead of accessing your Gmail
    account using Safari, you can set up the Gmail account from the Mail app on your hard drive. Mail preferences allow you to choose the
    folder you want to use for downloaded files.
    To add an account:
    Choose File > Add Account or click the Add button in the Accounts pane of Mail preferences.
    Enter information about the user.Mail searches for the information it needs to finish setting up your account. If it can’t find the information, continue to the next step.
    Enter information about the incoming and outgoing mail servers, review the account summary, and then click Create.For information about options, click the Help button (looks like a question mark).If you don’t want the account to be active immediately, deselect the “Take account online” checkbox. You can take the account online later.
    If you aren’t sure about the information to enter, contact your email service provider before you begin. When you talk with your provider, you can use the Mail settings “cheat sheet” available using the link below to record settings you might need to set up an account. If you’re switching from another application to Mail, use the cheat sheet to record information for each account you want to switch.

  • Currently I have 10 bookmark folders, but when I try to bookmark a new webpage, I only get the option of 5 of them. Is there anything I can do to make them all visible?

    Currently I have 10 bookmark folders, but when I try to bookmark a new webpage, I only get the option of 5 of them. Is there anything I can do to make them all visible? I am now having to bookmark it to the "bookmark menu" and then manually moving it to the folder I want cause it is not being displayed.

    No there is no arrow besides any of the folders (I do not have any sub-folders); I do have a "choose..." option, but that does not work either in showing all of the folders.

  • IPhone 5 going into recovery mode when trying to update iOS 7

    My 5 went into recovery mode when trying to update to 7.0.2 OTA. At first I was like ok just a glitch. Well trying to update to 7.0.3, it did it again. So right now I am again in the process of restoring and updating my 5.
    What is going on?

    because I'm an idiot.. of course.. All my other over the air updates have worked, I had a good wifi connection, knew I had a backup, and was desperate to get past the initial bugs I've been experiencing..
    I downloaded iTunes on my work PC, enough to get it going again, which I bascially had to do twice.. iTunes didn't find a backup and said that iCloud didn't have a backup, even though it did.. So, it did a basic install of iOS 7..  I then erased all settings from the iPhone itself and when it restarted I chose to restore from iCloud which the phone was able to find..
    Have not seen anything better.. I've had a couple random reboots. Once when swiping the Starbucks notification on the lock screen, the phone immediately crashed back to the apple boot screen.

  • OSX Server webdav bug? - files and folders disappears when filenames are fewer than 7 characters

    OSX Server webdav bug? - files and folders disappears when filenames are fewer than 7 characters
    Dear Community,
    i have a BIG problem with Apple webdav.
    All files or folders with fewer than 7 characters in filename disappear.
    The problems is only between Mac Server and Mac Clients
    and exists since OSX Server 1 (Server 10.7, 10.8, 10.9) on ALL Macs i know.
    The problem persist ever and occurs in the following settings:
    Mac Server (1.x, 2.x, 3.x) <> Mac Clients (10.7.x, 10.8.x, 10.9.x, 10.6 not tested)
    The problem does NOT occur in the following settings:
    Mac Server <> Windows Clients
    Mac Server <> Linux Clients
    Linux Server (my Webhoster) <> Mac Clients
    Windows Server (my Webhoster) <> Mac Clients
    So i think it is not a problem with server itselv or a single client only,
    it is probaly a problem with the combination betwen mac servers and mac clients.
    This is NOT a problem with MY MacServers/Clients only and not with only one Server.
    It occurs in many different Places and many different Machines.
    I have contact Apple Support more then tree times (always when i setup a new machine with server.app)
    but she said they heard first time about that and she cannot reproduce that problem.
    please, can somebody try it out?
    sorry for my bad englisch.
    best regards
    rené

    Supplement note:
    The Problem occurs also between OSX Server <> OpenWRT (Linux)

  • Both my iphone 4s and my ipad3 will not connect to the server when trying to access my email account. Why, and how do I fix it.

    Since 29/10/2012 my iphone 4s and more recently my ipad 3 will not connect to the server when trying to access my email account. All I get is an error message saying that 'cannot get mail, connection to the server failed' I hadnt changed any settings it just happened. I have since done a complete re-boot on the ipad but to no avail. Anybody got any suggestions?

    No. Everything was working fine and then it wasn't. I hadn't changed any settings or switched either one off. When the phone stopped working properly I ignored it because I always have my ipad with me but that just sopped working properly and now I am stuffed. I have tried most solutions suggested on here even wiping the ipad clean and re-booting. I did this exactly the same way as when I first got it but still no joy. The same with the phone.

    That's because the Mac, OS X and the iLife apps that came preinstalled on the Mac all belong to the previous owner. The previous owner needs to call Apple care and have their Apple ID disassociated from the Mac. Then the hard drive needs to be totally erased and OS X and the iLife apps reinstalled using OS X Recovery.
