How to make bookmark sidebar restore its scrolling position on Firefox start?

Why does Firefox not restore the bookmark sidebar scrolling position and open bookmark folders to the exact state it had when I closed the browser?
I admit to having way too many bookmarks, but especially then restoring the scrolling position and open bookmark folders is essential to me.
Is there any "about:config" setting to adjust this?

Hello,
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 to make bookmarks programmatically ?

    How to make bookmarks programmatically ?
    This question has never be adequately answered as I searched these forums.
    I have examined bookmark properties and they are atleast of three implementation styles.
    1. The one made on UI have no javascript and no named destination.
    2. The one made using this script are
    this.bookmarkRoot.createChild("chapter 1: Making a Javascript Bookmark", "this.pageNum=15");
    3. There are also some which have no javascript but use a named destination.
    I want to make the style 1 programmatically as the style 2 require javascript turned ON, which is a security risk as its now common info that there are hackers who know how to exploit and are unfortunately smarter than adobe's security brains, certainly smarter than simpletons and newbies like us.
    I can right click on a type 2 and reset its destination and it becomes type 1.
    How to make type 1 bookmark programmatically ... a very reasonable question ? And if you know this, perhaps shed light on how to make type 3 also.

    > You still haven't told us which of the APIs you are working with?  If  you are writing a plugin (or using the Adobe PDFLibrary) then look at  the PDBookmark and PDAction objects.
    I did not know that there are more than one APIs available.
    Can you name some of the API's that are available ?
    I have looked at the plugin guide and read some on how to make a callback and so on and understand that there are many plugins which make their methods available and various layers AS AV PD COS.
    I also have some idea how the java based eye text can do some things .. and done a few.
    If you consider the UI as an API, then I really prefer to make from the javascript console, bookmarks which dont need javascript for their OPERATION.
    Hitherto, the only bookmarks I know how to make from js console need a js code fragment and are not to my requirements.
    To this newbie, if you list the options available, the API's out there and what they provide, it would help making the decision.
    I am seeing the mechanics of the process in one example that has AVPageViewToViewDest ( )

  • My 3gs wont restore after ios 5 update. I have tried firmware restore and restore from backup, neither works. All I get is "iphone restore failed because backup session failed" Any ideas on how to make a successful restore with this ios 5 update?

    My 3gs wont restore after ios 5 update. I have tried firmware restore and restore from backup, neither works. All I get is "iphone restore failed because backup session failed" Any ideas on how to make a successful restore with this ios 5 update?

    I was having the same problem, I backed up my phone and then updated to iOS 5 and then it kept telling me it could not restore from my backup as it had failed.  After reading a bunch of forums and posts and trying everything, I did manage to get it to work.  I had tried the Time zone, creating a new computer user account, disabling anti-virus, etc.
    It took a combination of things, one of which was disabling the anti-virus completely and copying the contents of the backup folder to my desktop and then deleting everything in the backup folder.  Then I rebooted the PC, entirely disabled the anti-virus, copied the one backup I wanted to restore from the desktop to the backup folder and then trying to restore.  Low and behold the phone said restoring from backup and I am back in business, so when in doubt, trying combining some of the fixes together.

  • How to avoid blinking / moving of rows in a data grid when you restore the scroll positions

    By Default when an update is made on a data grid, it scrolls to top row. To avoid this when we save the vertical and horizontal scroll
    positions and restore the scroll positions after the update, it causes a blink in the grid (or moving / jumping) of rows. Is there a way to
    avoid this jumping of rows?
    In JavaScript this can be achieved by overriding the scrollToTop / OnLoad methods of datagrid to directly scroll to current scroll
    positions instead of top row. Is there a way to achieve similar feature in flex / actionscript?

    I am calling validateNow().. Also, using verticalScrollPosition to restore the scroller as in the link that you posted.. Reposition is working fine, But the bug filed is regarding BLINKING / JUMPING when this happens (i.e. this blinking is caused because after datagrid edit, during reload the scroller tries to move to  the top by default, then it repositions itself to current edited row as the verticalScrollPosition property is overridden ).. I have to get rid of this blinking.
    In Javascript it is dealt by overriding OnLoad method of datagrid to directly scroll to current scroll position instead of top row during reload so that there is no blinking.
    http://www.sencha.com/forum/showthread.php?13898-Is-there-any-way-to-keep-scroll-position- of-Grid-on-load
    Is there a way to achieve similar feature in flex?
    I am not sure what flex datagrid method to override.. Theres no method like load? What is the datagrid method that is called by default during reload (after datagrid edit) that causes the scroller to go to top?

  • Bookmark sidebar will not scroll and bookmarks will not open in Firefox 7 or 8

    Cannot get past Firefox 6 without probelms with Bookmarks sidebar. Sidebar will not scroll and folders will not open to reveal bookmark contents. Had this problem with Firefox 7 and again with Firefox 8. Would like to use latest version for security reasons, but it is useless to me if I can't access bookmarks

    Try:
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Corrupt_localstore.rdf
    Start Firefox in <u>[[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.

  • Bookmark sidebar will not scroll and bookmarks will not open in Firefox 7

    After updating Firefox to version 7, I am unable to use the Bookmarks sidebar. The sidebar will not scroll, nor will any of the bookmarks respond to a mouse click to open them. Had to uninstall 7 and go back to 6. Any fix for this?

    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • How to make a sidebar menu with subsection?

    Hello
    I've been trying to make a sidebar menu with subsections you can expand and collapse both in muse and edge animate but I just can't. I've search the net for tutorials for two weeks now, it's like such a menu just doesn't exist even tho I've seen them on several sites.
    Thos is a picture of how I want it to look:
    As a default, you can only see "home" and the two "subject". Then when you click on the first "subject", the two "tutorials" expand down, when you click on the individual "tutorials" the parts of that tutorial expands down. When you click on the buttons that expand subsection again, they collapse.
    As I've said I've search for tutorials for weeks, the person I'm making the website with has also search without any luck at all. I've found a tutorial that lets me have 1 button with subsection expanding when mouse is over it, but nothing where there are buttons below the button you expand. I'm starting to thing it's just impossible, but I can't understand how it should be impossible. In case it actually is possible I need to re-thing the way I organise and navigate the entire site.
    There is gonna be a whole lot of content on the site, we expect it to grow with up to 100 pages a month, therefor the navigation is obviously very important.
    I really hope someone can help me! A link to a tutorial I haven't been able to find or a description on how to do it, thanks!

    Hi,
    I am relatively new to Muse and hardly an expert, but I just did what you are describing.  Go to the Widget Library, Compositions > Blank.  In the Target, insert a Vertical Menu (also in the Widgets Library).  In the Options menu, under Menu Type select All Pages.  If that doesn't work the way you want it to, you might have to select the Manual menu option.
    Here's a short tutorial on how to use the Compositions Widget:

  • How to make Navigation and Topic panes scroll independently?

    Can anyone suggest how to make the default Multiscreen HTML layout navigation and topic panes to scroll independently, to accomidate a long index or TOC? Currently, scrolling toward the end of the index, for example, causes the topic pane to scroll also. Selecting an index entry scrolls the topic to the location of the appropriate content, but also scroll the index, taking the selected entry out of view. I would like independent scrolling of nav pane and topic panes.
    I'm using RoboHelp HTML 10, FrameMaker 11, TCS4.
    Thanks you.

    Your post has been moved to the Multiscreen forum. That does not change the link.

  • How to make a navigation for a scroll-down website?

    Hello, I created a one-page website, where you need to scroll down to see the different types of content.
    But how do I add a navigation on it?
    As example, the "About" part is somewhere in the middle of the page, how can I make a navigation which will scroll down automaticly to the "About" part when I click on it?
    I think you know what I mean.

  • How to make bookmarks appear in all user accounts w/out importing and exporting everytime.

    Hello, all. I'm imaging a couple of laptops to be sent out. I want the bookmarks on the admin user account to be applied to the network domain user accounts or roaming profile is you will. Is there a way to this without have to import/export?

    I am trying to do the same thing. I also cant get it to work. I am
    thinking it may have something to do with the concept of ScopedResponse, but
    I am not sure. There is very little documentation and more importantly
    examples of how to make sense of the getOuterResponse() method. Dev2Dev and
    Google are of no help.
    Anyone care to explain this to us?

  • I need a bookmarks sidebar with a scroll arrow.

    Hello,
    I need a bookmark setup like I had in IE. A side panel with a scroll arrow if possible.
    I am running Windows 7 on a new computer with cable.
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Thank you,
    Jim Franchetto

    There is a Bookmarks Sidebar. The quickest way to display it is to press Ctrl+b (this also closes it). Note that if your cursor is in a text editor, Ctrl+b might be intercepted to bold text instead of opening the sidebar.
    Does that work the way you would like it to work?

  • How to make adobe flash player always on in the firefox?

    I have a desktop pc with OS windows 7. I used daily firefox about 7 hours and more. Everytime i open firefox and go for the search page like youtube and videos sites an authorization noticed me to confirm to Allow adobe flash player. And also open a new tab and go the video sites also asks the same everytime i switced allow to adobe flash player to works. How i resolve this problem. And how to switch always adobe flash player to be on.

    Your Shockwave Flash plugin probably is set to "Ask to Activate" (which means, click to play). You could try switching it to "Always Activate" on the Add-ons page. Either:
    * Ctrl+Shift+a
    * orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    In the left column, click Plugins.
    If Firefox only offers the options of "Ask to Activate" and "Never Activate" then most likely the version you have is on the "block list." This is a regularly updated list of add-ons that are either out-of-date or malicious. If you can approve the plugin to run as needed, then it is a "soft block" that eventually will turn into a hard block where you will not be able to enable it at all.
    I realize Flash 11.3 and higher can create a lot of problems in Firefox. Most of these are due to the protected mode feature. If you eventually have to update, the following pages provide different ways to disable the feature:
    * Adobe support article under the heading "Last Resort": [http://forums.adobe.com/message/4468493#TemporaryWorkaround Adobe Forums: How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?]
    * Manual steps: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/968190?page=5#answer-509209

  • Please guide me how to make my laptop to its original state from manufacturer

    Good day all!
    Awhile ago I had a problem to login. Windows start-up was normal but i couldnt login to my user. So i had to perform start-up repair but still my bootmngr was corrupt. some file was missing. I had to format it with regular copy of windows 7 boot cd. I performed quick format for only C drive wich contains OS. Recovery drive (D) and HP tools(H) drive all were untouched.
    After the format i installed all drivers but I cant use my laptop as it was like before (from manufacturer). Before I did factory restore(reset) using files from recovery drive.
    Now I cant do factory reset even i have recovery drive. 
    How i can make my laptop (OS and all keyboard and touchpad settings) as it came from manufacturer.
    Now i cant use even my biometric.
    Any Ideas.
    PS : Recovery drive has all 21gb and its 2 gb free. as it seems all factory data is there. But i cant do factory reset from now installed windows 7 home premium 64 bit

    If you set the recovery partition to active by use of Windows 7 Disk Management mmc, you should be able to boot to the HP Recovery Manager and preform a factory image recovery. (mmc = Microsoft management Console)
    Click on the Windows Orb and type in disk management. Click on the icon that appears to use the disk Management mmc.
