How do I open a Bookmark folder in Explorer, (NOT IE), on Windows Vista?

In Firefox when I hit Bookmarks & get the drop down, why when right click on any of the subdirectories is there no "Open" option?
I get:
Open All in Tabs
New Bookmark
New Folder
New Separator
Cut
Copy
Paste
Delete
Sort By Name
Properties
I think this is the '''only''' thing IE still does right.
In other words, how do I simply open one of the folders within my bookmarks drop down?

Unfortunately you can not do that it has been asked like forever and always gets pushed aside. You will have to export your bookmarks and strip out what you do not want being careful to maintain the integrity of the exported bookmarks backup file. Then import the bookmarks. into Firefox. The imported bookmarks will get added to a folder at the end of your "Bookmarks Menu" bookmarks folder. Move them to where you want them and then delete the folder you added to the "Bookmarks Menu". If you automatically sort your bookmarks (automatic sorting is a bad idea), be sure to turn it off beforehand.

  • How do I change my Bookmark Folder icons? I'm on Windows 7 Home Basic 64-bit.

    I tried making a "userChrome.css" file and placing it on the default folder with this code inside:
    <pre><nowiki>@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul");
    .bookmark-item[container="true"][label="Santoni's Place"] {
    list-style-image: url('file:///C:\Users\Sher\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\nvj9dku5.default/santoni's place.ico') !important;
    -moz-image-region: rect(0px 32px 32px 0px) !important;
    }</nowiki></pre>
    But it doesn't seem to work. Is it because of my OS? How do I do it if so?
    Source: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wLFAm9CdFHg and a bunch of other forums.

    Try using a '''jpg''' or '''png''' image rather than the '''''ico''''' image.
    Also, get rid of the spaces in the image name ''(mentioned by '''diegocr''')''. You are better off with a name like '''santoni-s_place.jpg''' than using %-number code for spaces and punctuation marks. Using those in cross OS applications is asking for problems.

  • I have multpulpe Firefox profiles on one windows user account, how do I move a bookmark folder to a different Firefox profile on the same windows user account?

    ''locking this thread as duplicate, please continue at [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1015870 /questions/1015870]''
    I'm trying to organize my different Firefox profiles like into profiles such as, Jeep Stuff, Shopping, things to build, computers, ect. So how can I move a bookmark folder to an other Firefox profile bookmark bar. Or how can I move all my bookmarks into one area to organize them and then place them into the different Firefox profiles?

    What happens if you rename the iPhone "Wife" when it shows up as "Hubby", then choose a different set of apps/playlists to sync with? iTunes is supposed to be able to manage multiple devices, each with their own selection of content. Perhaps you "restored" "Wife" with a backup from "Hubby" when you first set things up which is now causing confusion.
    To create a new library press and hold down the shift key as you click the icon to start iTunes and keep holding shift until asked to choose or create a library. You need to use the same technique to switch back.

    How can i open the directory/folder and read all the files inside it in order and then close it? any example would be nice.
    thanks

    In the File I/O>>Advanced File Functions Palette is a function named "List directory". This function will give you two arrays. One contains the names of all subdirectories the other the names of all files. If you want to sort them by name use the array sort function. If you want to sort them by another attribute use the File/Directory Info function to get more data. Use a cluster which contains the attribut to sort and the original index of the name. Then sort this array.

  • How can i open my iBook on my Mac, not just on my iPhone

    Hi,
    how can i open my iBook on my Mac, not just on my iPhone?  I ask this questions in hopes that I can eventually find a way to have the iPhone read a non "Enhanced" iBook to me.
    I used the Accessibility reader for a brief time but it's very persinickety.  Move the phone a tiny bit and it threw me out from page 70 and back to page 48.  Changing pages when you are in Accessibility is excruciating. Now, I cannot get back there at all.
    I downloaded 2 apps that claim they can read to me but the closest I can get in the instructions says I need to open the iBook from my Mac computer with my iPhone connected and then I will be able to open the iBook in the app called "Read text to me".  Only when I go to open the book on my Mac it says "This book can’t be viewed using this computer. You can view this book using iBooks on your iOS device."
    Thank god, I only have a brain tumor and am not yet completely blind.
    I've been to the Apple store twice, checked out a youtube page with all it's comments and I am still nowhere, over the course of a week.
    Can anybody help me?
    thank you,
    Ellen

    You cannot.
    Ibooks are only for iphone/ipod touch/ipad
    So, there are no third party readers/emulators in Mac OS X and Windows to read them from iTunes? I don't even own an iOS device. I just redeemed Action Comics' Superman #1 from Starbucks and iTunes.
    This one?
    Where the REQUIREMENTS spell out that an iOS device is needed to read it?

  • How do you open the DVD tray on a K430 without using Windows Explorer?

    How do you open the DVD tray on a K430 without using Windows Explorer? I can't find a button on or below the door.  Am I missing something?  Additionally, will the K430 boot from a DVD/CD if it finds one in the DVD tray instead of the hard disk?  Please help. Thanks. 
    Solved!

    hi penguin247,
    Regarding your questions:
    1. Can you try to press the eject symbol on the DVD bay and observe if the DVD tray comes out.
    Link to picture
    2. By default, the HDD is set as the first boot device and the ODD second on the K430. You will need to change the boot order or continuously tap F12 during POST to boot from the ODD (assuming you have a bootable media inserted).

  • Better privecy does not work with windows vista home prem. what other program removes LSO'S AND HOW can I stop trackers?

    Question
    better privacy does not work with windows vista home prem. what other program removes LSO'S AND HOW can I stop trackers? edit
    Details

    As a temporary workaround, I believe this Adobe management page allows you to clear your "Flash cookies": [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager07.html Adobe - Flash Player : Settings Manager - Website Storage Settings panel] (hosted on macromedia.com -- Macromedia was the original developer of Flash).
    Regarding the script error, if I'm reading the script correctly, it is related to accessing your Flash cookies directory. It seems the publisher's support forum is not currently available for searching, but that might be a good next step.
    In the meantime, could you check whether the script has the correct location for your Flash cookies directory? If you can't access Tool > BetterPrivacy, you could check here:
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type or paste '''bpr''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) There should be a bolded setting named '''extensions.bprivacy.DataDir''' which looks approximately like the following:
    C:\Users\''yourWindowsUsername''\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia
    Do you have a similar value? If you paste the path used by BetterPrivacy into a Windows Explorer window, does it open? Also, click a couple levels in the folder, can you see:
    Flash Player \ #SharedObjects
    If the value is wrong, right-click the wrong value and choose Reset. BetterPrivacy should update the value the next time you try to access it.
    If the value is blank, you could try inserting a sensible value and see whether that helps.
    Any luck?

    Currently My CC Desktop app is a greyed out icon.

    Hi D2xS-Shooter,
    I am afraid Creative Cloud desktop app is not compatible with Windows Vista. If you run into problems there are very limited resources from Adobe to assist.

  • How do I open a hidden folder/file by using terminal

    I know how to use Mac, I didn't find a better category.
    By using this "code" in terminal you can show all hidden files:
    defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles True
    But also hide more files by putting a dot infront of the file-name.
    Now let's say I have hidden a folder and it's located on my desktop and I have hidden all files again (by entering:
    defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles False).
    How do I open just this one folder without showing every hidden file?
    I know you have to write killall Finder if you wondered

    Thank you! I have only heard about the shortcut (ShiftCmdC). But my mac "is on Swedish" so the shortcut didn't work. I checked out Go and there I found it.
    The shortcut for Swedish Macs is ShiftCmdG

  • How to directly open my bookmarks without first opening Safari?

    I know that one can keep a bookmark on the Dock so that one can easily open that webpage without first opening Safari.
    My question: Is it possible to open the whole bookmarks list or folder without opening Safari first? I am thinking of something similar to the Favorites menu in Windows which one can reach from the Start menu.

    I use Quicksilver by blacktree.com . It takes a bit of effort to get started using it, but once it is set up, it's great. I hit a key combo to bring up a box, start typing "Bookmarks" and after a couple of letters I see my Bookmarks folder. I can scroll down to see what's in it, and when I find what I want I can tell it to "Open".
    Even better, if you know what bookmark you're looking for, you can type some of the letters and, like Spotlight, Quicksilver will find it.
    Also, you can set up "Triggers" for often-used bookmarks (or anything else) and launch them with a key combo you define.
