How do I place my entire bookmarks folder on my desktop?
Is this possible?
If you are looking for an easy way to make backups;
These add-ons can be a great help by backing up and restoring Firefox
'''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/febe/ FEBE (Firefox Environment Backup Extension)]''' {web link}
FEBE allows you to quickly and easily backup your
Firefox extensions, history, passwords, and more.
In fact, it goes beyond just backing up -- It will actually rebuild
your saved files individually into installable .xpi files.
It will also make backup of files that you choose.

How do I make a new Bookmarks folder in Firefox 4?
I upgraded to Firefox 4 for the MacBook Pro and now cannot see how to create a new Bookmarks folder. The new look doesn't have a "New Folder" button. How do I create a new Bookmarks folder in 4?

How can I find a lost bookmark folder? A folder stuck on my mouse pointer I shook the mouse and it released the folder somewhere in the hundreds of other bookmark folders. I don't want to have to open every folder and search every file to locate it. Any ideas would be appreciated.
Renaldo,
You might try restoring a backup of your bookmarks.
1. From the menu at the top of the Firefox window bar, click the Bookmarks menu and choose Organize Bookmarks to open the Library window.
2. Before proceeding, you should make a backup of your current bookmarks.
1. From the toolbar on the Library window, select Import and Backup and choose Backup.
2. Firefox will ask you to save the bookmark backup to a folder on your hard drive. Choose a location that you will remember.
3. Your current bookmarks have been backed up to the file you selected.
3. From the toolbar on the Library window, select Import and Backup to open the Import and Backup menu, and pick Restore to see a list of available bookmark backups organized by date.
4. To restore one of the listed backups, select it from the Restore menu. Choose the newest bookmark backup that was created before the bookmarks were lost. You will lose all changes to your bookmarks that occurred after the date you select.
'''NOTE:''' To restore a backup that you saved manually, select Choose File from the Restore menu instead of selecting an automatic backup
5. A confirmation window will appear asking you to confirm replacing your bookmarks with the backup. To replace the bookmarks, press OK. To go back, press Cancel.
'''NOTE:''' You cannot undo this unless you saved a backup file as instructed above.
6. Your bookmarks have been restored to the date you selected. If your bookmarks do not show up after completing the restore process, repeat the above steps to restore an earlier backup.
If the backup follows the bookmark structure then the missing folder should be displayed

How do I find an old Bookmarks folder and addresses therein on Time Machine?
How do I find an old Bookmarks folder and addresses therein on Time Machine? My current bookmarks folder was overwritten by iCloud.
Short Version: Restore ~/Library/Safari/Bookmarks.plist
Long Version: First you need to open your (normally hidden) Library folder. One way is to press option then use the Finder Go menu to select "Library". In there you will find a Safari folder. Open that folder then enter Time Machine. Restore Bookmarks.plist. -
How do i migrate photos in a folder on my desktop over to my new macbook pro
how do i migrate photos in a folder on my desktop over to my new macbook pro
Hi d,
Connect the two Macs using FireWire Target Disk Mode http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58583
Then just drag the folder from your old Mac to your new Mac (it depends which you use for target and which for source, but one will show up as a HD icon on the desktop of the other; you can copy to/from that HD to/from the other Mac (the folder on your desktop). -

how do i put a photo file folder on my desktop so that I may upload photos to an outside lab to print glclee? I have already selected the 20 photos to print but I keep getting the whole file and need to reselect from the 8,000. photos. There must be an easier way!
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
(Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps. If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
For users of 10.6 and later: You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu.
Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
For Users of 10.4 and 10.5 Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
Show File: a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected. 3.b.
b: On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected. -

How do I search for a bookmark folder by name in Safari?
How do I search for a particular bookmark folder in Mac Safari 7.06? Since there seems to be no automated way to sort the folders (as in other browsers), in a long list of folders, a particular one can be hard to spot. Yes yes, very similar to a previous question of mine. -jan

Essentially I would like to create a smart bookmark folder similar to the default "recent bookmarks". But the entering information into the search bar won't create a date filtering smart bookmark. I couldn't find a way to edit smart bookmarks either. Obviously, I am familiar with smart folders in iTunes and iPhoto and am hoping that smart bookmarks in Firefox would have similar capabilities. Is there something that I have missed? Many thanks in advance.
Make the criteria: Event Contains XXXXXXX and Faces is unnamed. That will search only that Event.

Restarting Firefox and rebooting the computer did not help.
1. Open the Library (Ctrl+Shift+B).
<br>2. On the left, expand the All Bookmarks section.
<br>3. Left-click the Bookmarks Menu folder to select it.
<br>4. On the top toolbar, click the Organize button and choose New Bookmark.
<br>5. Name the bookmark "Recently Bookmarked", and enter the following in the Location field. Change the value of ''maxResults'' if you want more or fewer than 10 items (which is the default).
<pre><nowiki>place:sort=12&maxResults=10&queryType=1</nowiki></pre>
6. Either restart Firefox or just open a new window (Ctrl+N) and close the old one. -
How do I save only the bookmark folder, so I can reload Firefox
I am running XP SP3 and Mozilla 23.0.1 I want to save my Bookmarks and remove the mozilla I have now and reload a clean copy, than install the Bookmarks back. I would like the location on my hard drive. I think it is C:\Documents & Settings\Sue\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\6x4px2ey.default Let me know if this is the correct location or give me the correct location.
PaulYes, it's that folder.
After that, please check the [[Recovering important data from an old profile]] post. -
I was trying to delete a file but must have had the folder highlighted instead and deleted it instead.
Please help.Firefox automatically creates backups of your bookmarks, which can be helpful if your bookmarks are lost or missing. To recover them, follow the instructions below.
#Use <u>one</u> of these methods to open the Bookmarks Library window:
#*Click the ''[[Display the Firefox button menu instead of the menu toolbar|Firefox button]]'' to open the menu and click on ''Bookmarks''.
#*Click the ''Bookmarks'' menu and click on ''Show All Bookmarks''.
# At the top of the Library window, click the "Import and Backup" menu and select Restore.
# Click the date of the bookmark backup you want to recover.
# In the new window that appears, click OK.
# Your bookmarks from the selected date should now be restored.
For more information, see the [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]] article. For other solutions, see the [[Recover lost or missing Bookmarks]] article.

How can I add an entire music folder to my library on the new iTunes?
When I click on the little box on the upper left corner, the only adding option I see is "Add File to Library", and what I want to do is add the entire folder in which I keep all my music.
You can drag a folder in as before, or turn on the menu bar with Ctrl-b, or make it appear temporarily with Alt.
