How do I get Mozilla to use the page name for the actual bookmark name instead of the URL when I bookmark a page

I just noticed this (in comparison to Internet Explorer): In IE, when you favorite a webpage, it uses the actual name of the webpage (for example, for this page, it would be "Ask a Question Firefox Help" as the bookmark name), but in Mozilla it uses the URL address as the bookmark name. I was wondering if it was at all possible to change my Mozilla settings in order to make it use the webpage name as the bookmark name instead of the URL address? I hope everyone understands what I'm getting at? If anyone can help me, I would really appreciate it. Thanks.

Does this happen with each bookmark?
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Problems with bookmarks and history not working properly can be caused by a corrupted places.sqlite database file.

  • I can't get mozilla to use adobe fash player for videos ?

    I run Mozilla, I get a messege to install Adobe Flash Player. I install Adobe Flash Player, and when I try to view the video, I get the same message. Bob U.

    But then what?  I am in the same situation, and have both the original iPhone and original sim card, and that is it.  I am not the original iPhone owner (that was a family member who now has a new iPhone), and I do not have a new iPhone or a new iPhone sim card.  How do you convert it to an iPod Touch with ONLY the old sim  card (reboot does NOT work).

  • How do I get photos on my iphone into photostream for icloud?

    how do I get photos on my iphone into photostream for icloud?

    have you you downloaded the icloud software on your PC? Once it is set up the photos should go from your camera roll to the photostream automatically. Just go search for download icloud in google and install it. You also need to check you have the photostream turned on on your phone. Go to settings, icloud then photostream and check it is turned on.

  • How do I get a close up of an image for my web site

    How do I get a close up of an image for my web site

    You need to resize the image. Note that as you increase its size, it may become pixellated.
    The zoom feature just increase magnification for viewing on the monitor.
    If you are so inclined, post your picture for additional suggestions.

  • How do I get messages to go back to an AIM account? It's only seeing the iPad's Facetime email address and not seeing the old AIM account name that is on my desktop. I am using my iMac using iChat to talk to a newer iMac that doesn't have iChat.

    How do I get messages to go back to an AIM account? It's only seeing the iPad's Facetime email address and not seeing the old AIM account name that is on my desktop. I am using my iMac using iChat to talk to a newer iMac that doesn't have iChat. We had this working using Messages and Facetime (on the new machine) talking to my existing iChat account. One day last week, when Facetime rang, my kids answered on the iPad. Dang! Now it's all fouled up! The new iMac won't see my AIM account name and shows that I'm offline, because the iPad is off. We were able to call using "most recent call" in Facetime, but now I can't go and control that new iMac remotely to help with some email concerns the user is having. I'm trying to not personalize this too much, but it's grandkids talking to Grandma and Mom and Dad trying to solve new machine hiccups. Normally, I could just go in via iChat and control the other machine and troubleshoot, but I can't do it with Facetime only. My buddy list doesn't see  the other computer even though we are connected on Facetime right now. My name is not highlighted for the other computer. What could have gone so wrong?
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • I am changing from Word to Pages. I have created my custom template with all my styles etc and that is what comes up when I go for a New Document. Fine. How do I get it to use the same Custom Template when I use Pages to open a Word document?

    I am changing from Word to Pages. I have created my custom template with all my styles etc and that is what comes up when I go for a New Document. Fine. How do I get it to use the same Custom Template when I use Pages to open a Word document?

    The template is a document in itself, it is not applied to an existing document whether it is a Pages document or a Word document converted to a Pages document.
    You would need to either copy and paste content, using existing styles, or apply the styles to the converted Word document.
    You can Import the Styles from an existing document and those imported Styles can be used to override the current document's styles:
    Menu > Format > Import Styles
    The process is simplified if the styles use the same names, otherwise you will need to delete the style you don't want and replace it with the one that you do want when asked, then the substitution is pretty straightforward.

  • I cannot get to or use my home pc for a while and am staying with a friend for the foreseeable and am using their pc to write this. How do I access my itunes account on their pc. Thanks Karen

    I cannot get to or use my home pc for some time and am staying at a firends and using their pc to write this. I need to access my itunes account and music on their pc. How do I do this. Thanks

    An easy route would be to use the iTunes Match service such that all your Songs are available anywhere over the internet via iCloud.  Once complete you can create an account on your friends PC, download iTunes and sign-in to the iTunes Store with your Apple Id, start iTunes Match and it will provide access to all your Songs.
    Not quite so good, is simply to follow the steps on your friends PC as above, however, instead of iTunes Match simply access the 'purchased' songs area from the iTunes Store home page that will give you access to all your purchases without iTunes Match.
    IMPORTANT:  Apple only like to see a single Apple Id associated with one device - so if your friend already has an active Apple Id account on the PC, it would be wise to use an alternate machine.  Apple has a 90 day lock out associated with switching Apple Ids on a common device.

  • My itunes files were deleted. I was able to use an old back up file to restore some but new downloaded purchases from iTunes for the past 5 months weren't in the back up. How do I get those back since I've paid for them one before and use the same account

    My itunes files were deleted. I was able to use an old back up file to restore some but new downloaded purchases from iTunes for the past 5 months weren't in the back up. How do I get those back since I've paid for them one before? Can you redownload? If so, how?? Please help as I'm missing over 500 previously paid for and downloaded iTunes song purchases.

    This was EXACTLY what I needed about the purchases I made from my device. However, is there a way to re-download other ones you've made from a computer? Because I realized some of them were not just purchased from my device.
    This is a picture of what it looks like now:
    http://tinypic.com/r/107quxu/7
    As you can see, the stuff circled in red doesn't give me an option to download from Cloud Beta because it already says "downloaded".
    any way to get around that?

  • How do I get Mozilla Firefox to download for GB version because all I keep getting is the US version, which is conflicting with AYI on Facebook.

    How do I get Mozilla Firefox GB version to download? because all I keep getting is the US version, which is conflicting with AYI (Are You Interested) on Facebook. Which won't allow me to access my messages, browse and see who's viewed me on this site. But I have had Mozilla Firefox before (English version) and it as allowed me acces to AYI on Facebook. so I cannot understand why the US version won't allow the same access to AYI on Facebook?
