I have lots of redundant bookmarks. how do i go about filtering them to delete the redundancies?

I've imported bookmarks/favorites/etc., from several different places and now I've got hundreds of redundancies. Is there a way to run a filtering program of the URLs to weed out the redundancies?

You can use the following Add-on to check for duplicates:
*'''''CheckPlaces''''' --> https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/checkplaces/
*After install and restarting Firefox there is a toolbar icon (star with checkmark as shown on the Add-on page) that you '''''may''''' need to drag to the toolbar, '''''if it does not automatically show on the toolbar''''', from the Customize window while the Customize window is open: ''Firefox button > Options > Toolbar Layout'' (or ''View > Toolbars > Customize''). See --> https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-customize-toolbars#w_how-do-i-customize-or-rearrange-toolbar-items
*Clicking the toolbar icon opens a dialog. On the "Check Options" tab, check only "Check for duplicates", then click "Check" in the lower left. Review the results carefully before you delete items.

    I have OS 3.1.3 how do I go about Downloading past purchases from the App Store?

    You can download the current versions of the apps from the store e.g. via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes : re-downloading. But you may find that the current versions require higher iOS versions than you have on your iPod - in which case have you not got copies of the older versions of those apps on your computer's iTunes or on a backup ?

    In iTunes you use the Authorize This Computer or De-authorize This Computer option under the Store menu in iTunes' menubar. For Windows use the ALT-S keys to access it. Or turn on Windows 7 and 8 iTunes menus: iTunes- Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7.

    Why not simply update your old AppleID so you have only one iTunes account?

    If the machine was upgraded to Lion 10.7.x by the original owner then you bought an illegal license of Lion and also of any other applications that the seller  said came pre-installed, this assumes the seller did not include original install media. In that case you need to contact the seller for the original install DVDs that came with the machine re-install up to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and then purchase Mountain Lion ($20) and the applications you want or need. If the seller cannot come up with the original install discs then you can buy them from a nominal cost from AppleCare..

    I have the same question. It seems that Adobe is almost impossible to contact (I ended up here at the forums to ask the same question).
    I will never buy another Adobe product again if I can get another program to replace it. If this is customer service then it is NON EXISTENT!
    I notice that your question has not been answered and why should you have to get the information from a forum? I know of no other company that makes you do this for simple product information.
    NOT HAPPY with this version of arrogant customer service (nor am I happy about renting Photoshop products into the future - it is just a money grab in my opinion). I will be voting with my feet and going elsewhere in future.

    You could try Events -> Autosplit Selected Event
    And you always need a back up. Always.

  • I have 20kb of damaged files on my old hard drive. Are they worth keeping, and if so, how would I go about repairing them?

    I got rid of my old iMac G5 computer which ran on Tiger, but not before I retained the hard drive, which was installed into a 'caddy'.
    There is a folder containing 20kb of damaged files. I wondered whether they were worth keeping, and if so, how do I go about repairing them?

    Hello Sapper,
    Mostly they're garbage, text files would likely be the only "recoverable" ones, but...

    Not true at all.
    You only buy the right to your own personal use.
    You do NOT have the right to distribute to others.
    This is illegal.  There is no doubt about it

  • I loaded photos to my new iPad2 using iCloud. The photos went in all jumbled up. Now I can't delete them or delete the albums. How can I delete?

    I loaded photos to my new iPad2 using iCloud. The photos went in all jumbled up. Now I can't delete them or delete the albums. How can I delete?

    Well, typically one of the fixes that I would suggest is to try to delete the waiting icons. WIFi in a public places like McDonalds, Starbucks, B&N, etc. is not the greatest and I would avoid those places for downloading and updating apps. But I do realize that not everybody has access to Wifi in their homes.
    These are all things that have worked at one time or another for other users. Hopefull one of them will work for you. Just ignore whatever does not apply or anything that you have already tried.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
    You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.
    If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.

  • How would I go about adding multiple rectangles using the same lines of code?

    How would I go about adding multiple rectangles using the same lines of code? I would prefer to just run through a set of code every time I need a polygon. If I just have to create multiple polygon adding statements that's fine but I'd prefer just 1.

    >>How would I go about adding multiple rectangles using the same lines of code?
    You could create a method that creates and returns x number of Rectangle elements:
    public IEnumerable<Rectangle> CreateRectangles(int numberOfRectsToCreate)
    for (int i = 0; i < numberOfRectsToCreate; ++i)
    Rectangle rect = new Rectangle();
    rect.Fill = Brushes.Blue;
    rect.Width = 100;
    rect.Height = 100;
    yield return rect;
    ..and then call this method from anywhere in your code:
    IEnumerable<Rectangle> rects = CreateRectangles(5);
    foreach (Rectangle rect in rects)
    //add to StackPanel or do whatever with the Rectangle elements:
    yourStackPanel.Children.Add(rect);
    >>If I just have to create multiple polygon adding statements that's fine but I'd prefer just 1.
    When adding Point objects to a Polygon you can only add one per call to the Add method but you could call the Add method inside a loop, e.g:
    for(int i = 0; i < 10; ++i)
    //add to StackPanel or do whatever with the Rectangle elements:
    Polygon p = new Polygon();
    p.Points.Add(new Point());

  • How do I watch videos without them stopping all the time?

    How do I watch videos without them stopping all the time?
    I have Snow Leopard on two computers and IOS5 on IPad 2. Videos will not run without stopping. I am talking about videos like on Yahoo and YouTube etc.

    Slow Internet download speeds are typically responsbile, if you have 5 Mb/s or slower it's really bad. 10 Mb/s or higher is preferred and 20 Mb/s or better is ideal.
    If you use a alternate DNS service like GoolgeDND or OpenDNS which has to fetch Akami hosted content from overseas instead of using your much closer ISP servers.
    If your router is the old G model, upgrade to N.
    If your wifi is open, you could have leechers. The more on the network, even a fast one, the slower it gets.

  • I forgot the answers to my security questions, how do I go about changing them so I can redeem my credits

    I forgot the answers to my security questions, how do I go about changing them so I can redeem my credits

    How to reset your Apple ID security questions.
    Go to appleid.apple.com, click on the blue button that says 'Manage Your Apple ID'.
    Log in with your Apple ID and password. (If you have forgotten your Apple ID password, go to iforgot.apple.com first to reset your password with a password recovery email)
    Go to the Password & Security section on the left side, and click on the link underneath the security questions that says 'Forgot your answers? Send reset security info email to [email]'.  This will generate an automated e-mail that will allow you to reset your security questions.
    If that doesn't work, or  there is no rescue email link available, then click on 'Temporary Support PIN' that is in the bottom left side, and generate a 4-digit PIN for the Apple Account Security Advisor you will be contacting later.
    Next, go to https://getsupport.apple.com
    (If you see a message that says 'There are no products registered to this Apple ID, simply click on 'See all products and services')
    Choose 'More Products & Services', then 'Apple ID'.
    A new page will open.
    Choose 'Other Apple ID Topics', then 'Forgotten Apple ID Security Questions'.
    Click the blue 'Continue' button.
    Select the contact option that suits your needs best.
