How can I sort bookmarks within a folder by date such that this is apllied not only in the library but also on the toolbar?

Hello,
I have several folders on my firefox toolbar which I use to sort new bookmarks by topic. If I add a new bookmark to a folder it is alwas placed at the bottom (below existing bookmarks) which is somewhat annoying with a increasing number of bookmarks. I would like to have the bookmarks recently added at the top of the folder (above existing bookmarks).
It's no problem to sort them this way within the library. But back at the toolbar everthing remains the same. The only option that seems to work here ist 'sort by name'.
Is there any way to sort the bookmarks by 'date added' such that new bookmarks are placed on top and this is applied also outside the library?
I hope you get my problem!
Thanks!

I do not think there is a way to do that without add-ons
There are a couple of workarounds I am aware of
* Add the bookmarks manually in the bookmarks library and choose the position. That is using Show all bookmarks -> open required folder -> select a position and right click -> add new bookmark Rather a slow and clumsy process
* Sort a folder and copy it. If you sort the folder contents then copy and paste them they remain in that order when pasted.
There are add-ons but I have not tried them. For example
* https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/simplesort-bookmarks/
* https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/auto-sort-bookmarks/
There will be others available and take note of the advice to backup bookmarks manaully.

How can I sort bookmarks in plain folder?

any way to simply gain access to the bookmarks in a plain windows folder so I can sort them in a manner that makes sense to me just like I used to do with Internet Explorer instead of having to learn this whole miserable procedure?

no I surely wouldn't want to sort them by editing a text file, but here I can't even see everything at once, and it is only a rolldown menu which disappears if I click on anything else. The help for the library says there is a bug so that I cant permanently sort things in there, and anyway, I can only see half or one third of the whole mess at a time, even in the library file, because I cant spread it to multiple columns, only one as high as my screen. Maybe I can export it all to Internet Explorer, sort it there, and re-import it to Firefox? In IE I will simply have normal folders and shortcut files, nice and simple. Is there a procedure for doing that described somewhere? Or is there an add-on for firefox that it can be exported to and re-imported from for sorting?

How can I sort files in a folder by name?

How can I sort files in a folder by name? iFS first sort files that starts with upper-case letter and then files with lower-case letter.
Like:
A_file
B_file
a_file
b_file
I want:
A-file
a_file
B_file
b_file
This doesn't help:
String[] sort_attributes = {"NAME"};
boolean [] sort_orders = {true};
SortSpecification sort = new SortSpecification(sort_attributes, sort_orders);
currentFolder.setSortSpecification(sort);

How can I sort photos within an event? When I follow the Help instructions, I can sort manually in Photo format, but when I return to Event format, the original order is restored.

How can I sort photos within an event? When I follow the Help instructions, I can sort manually in Photo format, but when I return to Event format, the original order is restored.

Events are organisation for those who can't really be bothered. They are automatic - based entirely on Date and Time the camera records the photos as taken.
You can move photos between Events, you can Merge Events, you can Rename them and sort them in various ways except one: You cannot manually sort in an Event as Events are all automated.
If you want to manually sort in an Event then you've outgrown Events as an organising tool. Now it's time to look at albums (Where you can manually sort) which are much more flexible than Events as an organising tool.

Only albums can be sorted manually. Events can only be sorted automatically according to one of the predefined settings "Date, Keywords, Title, Rating".
If you need a manual sort order, selectaall photos in the event and create an album: File > New Album

How can you sort bookmarks in the Sidebar by date added? Works in Library but does not carry over to Sidebar.

When opening the Bookmarks Sidebar, the oldest bookmarks added are at the very top, easily visible.
The most recent bookmarks added are at the bottom, requiring me to scroll all the way down every time I want to visit a recent bookmark. This is a major nuisance. I'm actually a little shocked that this happens when it's such an obvious hassle.
How can I flip the list of bookmarks so the newest ones are right at the top where I can easily access them?
Sorting in the Library does not carry over to the Sidebar as far as I can tell.

Looks as though the SortPlaces add-on should be able to do it.

How can I sort an albums chart by release date on the latest version of iTunes?

Hello Achates:
I did not read the rather long post. If you wish to reinstall OS X 10.4, use your software install DVD. Backup is essential. To minimize your risk, I would use an archive and install:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
In that way, you will have a fresh copy of OS X and your current settings will be preserved.
Incidentally, I do not agree that the printer problem is best solved by reinstalling OS X. I have had HP printers for sometime and, on one occasion, had difficulty after an upgrade. HP technical support walked me through uninstalling all traces of the HP driver and then reinstalling.

How can I remove a previously used Apple ID from my iPhone? My phone is saying to update apps but asks for the other Apple ID password

I signed in on my phone with my wife's Apple ID and downloaded an app then signed out of hers. I signed back in with mine and now, my phone remembers I did that obviously because it says I have apps that need to be updated and when I chose to update them, the phone asks for her password tho it's signed in under my Apple ID.

There may be several that were bought with your Apple ID. but somewhere in the updates there must be one associated with that other ID.
You can update one by one, until you find the one that requires the other Apple ID.

How can I organize playlists within a folder?

I want to use iTunes to burn an MP3 cd containing a number of albums by one artist.
I name the Folder after the artist, and then create a few of playlists within that folder (into which I import each album.)
But if I name each playlist after the album it contains, the Folder arranges them alphabetically and, for example, "Fourth album" gets placed above "Second album." [F before S.]
And if I name each playlist numerically, it only works to the ninth playlist, eg "9." After that the folder wil place "10." BEFORE "1.!"
What characters can I use to continue my numerically named playlists in order?

Try 001, 002, 003, etc.

How can I restore bookmarks after I pressed clear data for Firefox on Android

I have pressed clear data for Firefox in Android Application manager. On SGS4 it is Settings->Options->Application manager->Fitefox->Clear data. Can I restore my bookmarks now?

Android's Clear Data button completely deletes your Firefox settings files. I am not aware of any way to undo that unless there is an "unerase" tool for Android files as there are on desktop operating systems.
Some ways you might have made a copy of those bookmarks:
* Did you ever set up Firefox Sync and sync the bookmarks to a Firefox Account?
* Did you ever use the [https://addons.mozilla.org/android/addon/copy-profile/ Copy Profile add-on] in Firefox for Android?
