Cannot save the same bookmark in different folders

Having a page open in FF, when I save the relative bookmark using Bookmarks->Bookmark this page->Show all the bookmarks folder-> <selection of folder> ->Done, if a duplicate of the bookmark exists in another folder it is deleted.
In order to better organize my bookmarks I'd prefer to have duplicates permitted.
Is it possible?

You can do a Copy & Paste in the Bookmarks Manager (Shift+Ctrl+B) to create a copy of a bookmark.
You can also drag the (fav)icon on the left end of the location bar to a folder in the Bookmarks menu drop down list or to a folder in the side bar (Ctrl+B) or to the Bookmarks Toolbar.
In the side bar you need to click to the left of the icon to prevent Firefox from opening the bookmark.

  • Why can't i save the same bookmarks in different locations?

    Why can't I save a bookmark for a particular site in multiple locations? If I already have it saved, for instance, in the bookmarks menu, and I then try to save an additional copy into the bookmarks folder, the copy in the bookmarks menu will disappear. This is incredibly frustrating. Thanks.

    Using the "star" at the right end of the Location bar, you can only save to one location.
    Using the Bookmark Sidebar (CTRL+B opens and closes the Bookmarks Sidebar), you can drag the icon at the left end of the Location Bar to other locations, one at a time, into a folder (will be placed at the bottom of the items already in the folder) or into any position, including a position within a folder. The image below demonstrates; the image is old, but the method still works. This is the only method that I use for Bookmarking, as I place some Bookmarks in multiple folders and I keep the Bookmarks Sidebar open most of the time for easier access.

  • How do I save the same bookmark in the same folder more than once using the bookmark all tabs feature in FireFox 21?

    I was able to do this previously. Recently however, firefox has only been allowing me to save one of the same webpage per bookmark folder. odd request I am aware, however, it is necessary to my usage of the program to make long lists of associated items.

    That is not possible.<br />
    When you sue Bookmark all tabs then duplicate tab won't get stored separately, but only one occurrence of a specific URL, so you would need to distinguish them e.g. by adding an anchor (#&lt;random_nr&gt;).
    You would need to save a list of currently open tabs to achieve this.
    Extracting the links from a sessionstore.js file might be the easiest way to achieve this.

  • Importing files of the same name in *different* folders?

    Yes, yes, we all know about the RAW+JPEG and whatever else argument.
    But why should I be prevented from importing identical files that are stored in different folders? Who cares if they are in the library twice?
    I haven't figured out if it's just a name issue (don't think so) or if the files have to be truly identical.
    I *think*, but am not sure, that you can import separate files of the same name but that are actually different images. Can anyone verify?
    Lee Jay

    Bob,
    It appears that you can import duplicate named files by unchecking the "ignore Duplicates' box--the first time you import files (or a file) from a folder. But, if you go back to that folder to use 'import' to update, then the import takes place immediately bypassing the screen with the "ignore Dulicates' box on it--I presume it assumes that you would not want to change any of the original settings for an import from a given folder.
    The point is you had better leave it unchecked always if you want duplicates ingested intially or later on reimport.

  • Save same bookmark in multiple folders without having to do it manually. Is there and add-on that can help me fix this issue?

    If I have a bookmark in a folder and I save a new folder that may overlap with the old bookmarks the bookmarks from the old folder are automatically removed, this is a problem for me and I cant always manually go fix it.
    If I have a folder named A1-D1 that has bookmarks A1, B1, C1 & D1
    & now I am searching bookmarks related to A & want a new folder A1-A4 with bookmarks A1, A2, A3 & A4
    when I save the new group of bookmarks it removes A1 from A1-D1, which is horrible.
    & its very time consuming & frustrating to have to manually fix this every time.
    I know Firefox did this on purpose to prevent duplicate bookmarking but this is worse than having the the same bookmark being repeated more than it needs to. Now when I am looking at folder A1-D1 i don't even know how many of them have disappeared & have to search all over again.
    I hope they fix it soon.
    Please let me know if there is an add-on that will prevent Firefox form ruining my bookmarks.

    This extension gets around that limitation for me. <br />
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-bookmark-here-2/
    Really nothing to be fixed, that "feature" was added to Firefox 3 when the "Tags" feature was added to Firefox bookmarks. The concept is to use Tags to categorize a single bookmark with multiple Tags, instead of the user saving the same bookmark to multiple folders. I don't care for Tags and save the same bookmark to whatever folders I want it in using that extension.

  • FIrefox won't let me save the same website to multiple bookmark files

    I am using Firefox 19.0 on a MacBook Mountain Lion OSX 10.8.2
    I tried to bookmark a website in multiple folders. For example, this website had information about gardening, cleaning and beauty. I bookmarked it first in my gardening folder, then I changed the name of the bookmark and tried to save the site to my cleaning folder. I changed the name again and tried to save the site to my beauty folder. When I went back to check if it had worked, the site was not bookmarked in the gardening and cleaning folders, but was bookmarked in the beauty folder. I don't understand why I can't bookmark the same page in multiple folders. I may not think to look in the Beauty folder for information on gardening.

    This has come up a few times before. Not sure whether all these old tricks work in the latest Firefox, but please take a look.

  • How can I let firefox save usernames/passwords for multiple subdomains that use the same username but different passwords?

    on a particular website that has sub domains I have multiple accounts with the same name but different password. Firefox seems only able to save one of them, because they are on the same site.

  • We have a new iPad Mini.  I cannot save a new Bookmark.  In Safari, I go to "Share" and select "Add a Bookmark" yet when I click on the Bookmarks icon, my saved Bookmark is not there.  Am I doing something wrong?

    We have a new iPad Mini, and I'm having inconsistent results using Bookmarks in the Safari icon.
    For a long time, on the iPad, I could only see five items under the Bookmark icons and the Bookmarks Bar was empty. 
    Occasionally, in Safari, the iPad would pick up and display all of the Bookmarks from the Safari browser on my iMac. 
    Other times, there are only a bare few Bookmarks available on the iPad, the Bookmarks Bar goes away and I cannot save a new Bookmark.  It looks like I can save one, but I cannot find it after allegedly saving. 
    Then, all of the Bookmarks will come back and I can save a new Bookmark again. We can't figure out why all of the Bookmarks will show and then they won't.
    I want to think this involves iCloud some way, but for right now, I'm stumped.  Perhaps we're just too inexperienced and haven't come around the learning curve yet.
    Thanks for any help.
    Steve

    No, I see the three areas at the bottom of the Bookmark area that you refer to, but that also highlights an issue.  When I want to save a story to my Reading List and click on Share then "Add to Reading List" then go back to look at what is stored in the Reading List, my recently-saved item is not there.
    I looked thru the History tab and the Reading List tab and have been in the Bookmark tab.  But even when I Save a Bookmark, that newly-saved Bookmark does not show up in the Bookmark area.
    But then again, the next day (and actually just in the last half-hour) all of the functionality came back.  When I look at the Bookmarks, suddenly, again, all of the Bookmarks that are on my Safari browser on my iMac are now there, and I can now Save a Bookmark.
    It keeps coming in and out and that is what is driving me a little nuts.
    Thanks.

    I have two networks one each in two cities.  Both are named the same but require different passwords. I am at my second location and cannot connect to this wifi network. How do I delet one network so I can connect to my second network?

    Just go to the wireless network preferences and empty out all the stored wireless networks.. then scan and connect to the local wireless.
    Select them and tap the - button below it.
    Once they are emptied out.. it might be good to reboot the computer with the remember networks unchecked.
    Start with a clean slate.

  • Ive followed all the hints on your website i still cannot save any new bookmarks

    ive followed all the hints on your website i still cannot save any new bookmarks, i have a new mac book pro, worked fine no doesnt save bookmarks, verrrrrry annoying!

    Hi eddpie,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    I personally would suggest the option to save your iTunes library to an external drive -- because it creates an important backup, and copies the library to your new computer.
    iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527?viewlocale=en_US
    External drive
    This option requires more work than Home Sharing, but it creates a backup of your iTunes library on the external drive in addition to moving your content.
    Windows operating systems don't recognize Mac OS-formatted disks (HFS or HFS Plus formats). Because of this, you can't use a Mac-formatted iPod or external drive to move your music to a Windows PC.
    Mac OS X can read Windows-formatted iPods and drives. This means there are many ways to migrate your information from your old Windows-based PC to your new Mac.
    Mac OS X: To be sure external drives appear on your desktop, choose Preferences from the Finder menu. Be sure the options for "External disks" and "Hard disks" are enabled.
    Part 1: Locating and consolidating the iTunes Media folder
    Part 2: Copy iTunes folder from the old computer:
    Part 3: Get iTunes ready on your new computer
    Part 4: Back up any music that's already on your new computer
    Part 5: Copy music to your new computer
    Part 6: Add preexisting music that was on the new computer back into the library
    I hope this information helps ....

  • When saving downloads is there a way to instruct Firefox to save the download to a different folder other than the default?

    I downloaded a printer driver to Firefox's default downloads. I started the exe file and a window opened so I could install the driver. I selected run, and the window closed and nothing happened. I finally had to use MS IE in order to save the file to a different folder. I was then able to decompress the file and install it. Is there an option in Firefox to override the default downloads folder with a folder of my choosing? Running Win 7 Home Prem 64 bit, FF 5.0.1.

    This is the same issue that has plagued me for years. I always thought that this was a Flash plugin issue, but it does occur on HTML5 as well. A friend of mine verified that this does not occur in Linux, but only on Windows. It would be great to have this fixed, as it's honestly the only thing that's making me use Chrome all the time, as I don't want to have multiple browsers open.

  • HT5372 Is it possible to sync tabs without having to merge bookmarks? I dont want or need the same bookmarks on both my macs.

    So I went to turn on Safari syncing on my MBA after installing Mountain Lion and it says it will merge my bookmarsk with iCloud, like Bookmark syncing in Lion.
    My question is, why do I have to have the same bookmarks on both my MBA and my Mini for tab syncing to work? I use them for totaly different things, and the bookmars bar is only so big . Is there anyway to use tab syncing without bookmark syncing?

    i can not for the life of me get my Itunes to create a primary and secondary library. I have an Imac and an apple tv. everytime i disconnect the library from apple tv and reconnect to itunes the only option i have is to sync photos only. I have looked over settings on the apple tv and i dont know what i am doing... Please help. You seem to be most knowledgeable on this

  • How to assign the same GTIN for different material?

    Hi,
    I've managed to install an internal number assignment for the GTIN / EAN in material master which works fine.
    Now we need to assign the same GTIN to different material numbers. 
    Since the defined number range is marked as internal I cannot use this number range as the external number range in spro -> Define Attributes of EANs/UPCs (number categories/EAN categories):
    I cannot make an external number range with the same data as the internal one, since number ranges must not overlap.
    So, here is the question again:
    How can I achieve that 1. the GTIN is generated and 2. a GTIN, which is already assigned to another material, can be entered manually in the GTIN field?
    Any advice is appreciated,
    thanks,
    Marco.

    1. the GTIN is generated
    This should be "external" number range only.
    2. a GTIN, which is already assigned to another material, can be entered manually in the GTIN field?
    We can enter manually or thru' upload during master data creation provided number range is "external"(refer point no.1 above)
    Unable to understand that why you need same GTIN in two different articles?
    Request to understand the business process once again as this leads to confusion reg. inventory, PDC and PoS dumping.

  • Help!  Can't figure out how to store the same photo in different events

    I know that this is just a user error problem, but I can't figure out how to store multiple versions of the same photo in different events. For example, I use Aperture as my main photo library, so I have a big folder set-up by year and then by events within those years to organize and maintain my library. I'm currently working on a project where I would like to pull out certain pictures for other uses. I tried creating new events and then moving the pictures to those events (like I would have in iPhoto) expecting for a new version of the picture to be deposited in the new event. That didn't work - it moved the picture out of my "main library" folder and as far as I can see it now only exists in the new event. Next, I tried creating "new versions" of the pictures I wanted to move and then just selecting those and moving them. In one folder I selected three photos, clicked "New Versions", then in the browser display I could see two of each picture (for a total of six), I selected ONE of each photo and moved those three to the new event. At which point all six disappear from the "main library" and end up in my new event. I don't understand why that happens. Currently the only way I've been able to do what I need to do is by using the flag field, but as far as I can tell there is only one of those - it's on or off that is really not serving my purpose. What do I need to do???

    Like Jim said, you most likely want Albums for what you describe. Albums simply consist of "pointers" to a single compilation of image data. Albums can be created and deleted at will, because they are just pointers; an important concept.
    Also learn to use Keywords - and unlearn "folder" organization, which is not the way digital asset management works. The power of Albums and Keywords is huge once we lose the film-think of folders organization.
