I turned the Bookmarks Toolbar (BT) back on per posted instructions (Relax...!) and no BT appeared. I've also lost the Organize Bookmarks option in the Bookmarks menu. I'm using a Mac 10.5.8. Restoring back to Firefox 3.6.whatever didn't help.

Upgraded to Firefox 4.0 earlier this week (4/11/11). Have been using and recommending Firefox for years (in spite of the websites that don't work well on it) but liked very little of the new 4.0 look (flat, colorless, buttons not very visible against theme graphics...) Do like the new Zoom buttons (thank you for that!), but re-arranged all buttons immediately. Don't like Tabs on Top - changed that - and turned the Bookmarks Toolbar (BT) on as well. Tabs shifted correctly, but no BT appeared... The Bookmarks sidebar works fine, but I no longer have Organize Bookmarks in the Bookmarks menu.
Today (4/16/11), after trying to revive the BT several times, researching problem in support, trying out the App Tab (OK, but not a substitute for BT), I restored to previous version of Firefox. The window looked like what I remembered, except the BT was gone. Aaarrgh! I've done nothing else to Firefox or my Mac recently.

  • Ive just signed up for the adobe photoshop pack, i use a mac, when i click download, nothing is happening..  Am I doing something wrong?? When I try and open the software I already had from trial it says its expired,  or i need to use a serial number... H

    Ive just signed up for the adobe photoshop pack, i use a mac, when i click download, nothing is happening..  Am I doing something wrong?? When I try and open the software I already had from trial it says its expired,  or i need to use a serial number... HELP Anyone else experienced this?

    If there is an option to "license this software", and it takes you to a sign-in page with username and password (not a serial number) - then just go ahead and sign in.
    If it insists on a serial number you need to uninstall the trial. Then try to download again.

    do 2013 ipads have the same bug hampering internet use as mac air?

    I couldn't get my internet to hold at home on my new MacBook Air though it worked in other places and this is what I was told (p.s. the update seems to have worked and everything is running smoothly now):
    Some MacBook Air (Mid 2013) computers may encounter an issue that, in rare instances, may cause an intermittent loss in wireless connectivity. The Wi-Fi menu bar icon may or may not indicate that a wireless connection still exists.
    Resolution
    Install MacBook Air (Mid 2013) Software Update 1.0 by running Software Update, or by downloading the update directly.

  • I have an Apple MacBook Pro with 2 USB ports and a MiniDisplay Port. I also have an HDTV with a HDMI port. How can I use the TV as a display without any tethering wires between my computer and the TV?

    I have an Apple MacBook Pro with 2 USB ports and a MiniDisplay Port. I also have an HDTV with a HDMI port. How can I use the TV as a display without any tethering wires between my computer and the TV? I have a MiniDisplay Port to VGA adapter, but there are two issues with it: The new display doesn't have a VGA port, and even if it did, I wouldn't want to have my mac constantly attached to the display by a cable. I was looking for a way to use the TV as a display without any wires. Is there some type of bluetooth setup I could use? Please let me know if you have any suggestions.

    As I wrote above, I think you should look into the Apple TV yourself. The best place to find information about what it can and can't do and to ask your own specific questions is probably in the Apple TV forum, here:

  • When I click on a link in an email, nothing happens; Firefox used to open the page. I am using a Mac computer, latest OS, and the Mac mail program.

    I have tried quiting Firefox and setting Safari to my default browser. Links open on Safari just fine. When I go back to Firefox as my default, I continue to have the same issue, links will not open in Firefox.

    You can also quit and relaunch Firefox and then
    the link will open in mac mail.

  • What is the Best & Max Upgrade for Used Power Mac G5

    Hi All,
    I need your help on purchasing an old Second hand Power Mac G5, which will coast me nearly 1900$ with 20" Cinema Display? is this price is OK for the below Spec.:
    Processor: 2.0Ghz Dual Core (1MB Cache for single core)
    RAM: 512 MB, DDR SDRAM PCI 533.
    Graphic Card: Nvidia 6600 128
    Hard Disk: 160GB
    And Super Drive for the DVD Rom.
    As you see its have an old Graphic Card and Small amount of RAM so what is the best amount I can Add on RAM and Best Graphic Card to get the perfect performance?
    And What is the max size of the hard drive supported by the machine is it 2TB or less?
    And last not least can I install the new OSX (Leopard) on the machine and is there any difference between MAC Pro G5 and Power Mac G5?
    Looking forward for the answers and hopefully as soon as possible because I afraid somebody else will gonna by it, Thanks for the support and Good Bye.
    Thanks & Regards,
    UAEonline

    Hi! It all depends on your use. If the machine is to be used for serious work such as video editing and Photoshop use then the more power you have usually means more productivity. On the other hand if you are just surfing the net and using word applications like Microsoft Office then nearly any machine is suitable. The early G5's could use 8 gigs of ram and the newer ones 16. Look HERE for late model specs and look HERE for slightly older models. For most people the fastest iMac is a hard machine to beat but there are tradeoffs with an all in one machine. If one component fails it's hard to repair but with a tower design such as a G5 or MacPro the components are easily more replaced. Also expandability with a tower is easier. You can multiple hard drives to a tower that you can't with an all-in-one machine. The new Macpros start at 2799 as per APPLE's SITE while the fastest iMac is 2199 as per APPLE's Site. I'm not a video card expert nor a raid expert so I'll leave those questions to others. Tom

  • When i got this ibook g4 yesterday i couldnt access itunes. i didnt know what to do because this is the first time i ever used a mac os. i followed the steps to delete itunes on the apple support web page and now there is no existing file of itunes on my

    There is no more existing file for itunes on my ibook and every time i try and download itunes it says cannot create file. Can anyone tell me what to do please?

    Open the General section of Safari's preferences and check where Safari is trying to download files to; if this folder doesn't exist or is in a folder used by the system itself, change it to a location inside your home folder, such as the desktop, or another folder you can write to, such as /Users/Shared/. If the download folder is set to one of these locations and you get that error message, click on that folder in the Finder and then choose Get Info from the File menu. Under Ownership & Permissions, verify that you have read and write access to this folder and that the folder isn't locked, changing the settings as necessary.

  • How do I make a simple pulldown bookmark menu like I used to have.

    Firefox used to have a simple pulldown menu for bookmarks. I can't seem to find it or make it work now.

    Do you mean on the classic menu bar? (File, Edit, View...) To display the menu bar, you can use any of these methods:
    * right-click a blank area of the tab bar > Menu Bar
    * right-click the "+" button on the tab bar > Menu Bar
    * tap the Alt key to activate the classic menu bar, then View > Toolbars > Menu Bar
    * click the "3-bar" menu button and use Customize to access the Show/Hide Toolbars list
    If you meant on the toolbar, the icon changed in Firefox 29. You should find a star, and next to it, something that looks like a clipboard. It's that button on the right which drops down your Bookmarks menu list from the toolbar.
    Any luck?

  • How to trace the save menu in cs3 using javascript?

    i can able to add menu items using the following syntex
    app.scriptMenuActions.add("Script 1");
    but i dont know how to trace the save menu, i want to do certain action while the user try to save their active document.
    is it possible in script?
    thanks
    subha

    Hi subha,
    re: "i dont know where to get that BeforePrint.jsx, but by using scripting guide i able to trace the menu events."
    All of the scripts shown in fragmentary form in the Scripting Guide are included in the associated scripts archive on the InDesign Scripting home page.
    The BeforePrint.jsx script shows how to cancel the display of the Print dialog box; I assume that the same techniques will work for the Save dialog box. No time to check right now.
    Thanks,
    Ole

  • I am experiencing more frequent crashes, the last of which wiped out my entire list of Firefox Bookmarks. I need to know how to recover the Bookmarks. I am using a Mac desktop with OS 10.4.8.

    I had Firefox opened along with my e-mail (Verizon) when the browser crashed. When I restarted the computer and returned to Firefox all of my Bookmarks disappeared.

    First, that cannot be an iBook G4 as that machine cannot run Snow Leopard let alone Mountain Lion.  To run Snow Leopard it has to be an Intel processor, not a G4.  What does it show as the Model Identifier in About This Mac, More Info, System Report, Hardware, Model Identifier?
    Second, if you have erased the hard drive there should not be remnants of any prior content.  Even though Disk Warrior is saying nothing is wrong with the hard drive, it sounds as though there are problems.  You may want to consider simply replacing the hard drive so there are no questions about faults.  A good source is OWC, http://www.macsales.com where they also have on-line videos showing how to do the replacement.
    Third, you could also try again to restart using the Snow Leopard DVD/CD and use Disk Utility on that install disk to erase again, and do it a couple times, then try to install.  If it continues to refuse, then it sounds as though there is a fault with the hard drive.

  • I have reinstalled my OS without time machine (using the disc). I want to restore some pictures in the iPhotos which are already in the time machine i was using previously. How can I restore iPhoto from previous time machine?

    My mac book was incredibly slow. When I went to Mac store, they asked me to reinstall the OS with CD and not with the time machine. I reinstalled the operating system. But when I opened the applications, all those started as fresh applications as usual. I have the backup of all other data in another hard disc. But unfortunately, I forgot to copy the photos before reinstallation. I have those photos in my time machine back up. But when I opened time machine, it started like a fresh (very new) time machine and it started backing up my present OS (the reinstalled one). I cannot open the previous time machine, which is in the same hard drive. I wish to open the previous time machine to get the photos which are backed up previuosly. When opened the time machine disc (manually by clicking the icon), i can see all the thigs which I had previously in my macbook. But unfortunately, i cannot access those through time machine! Can anybody help me please?

  • Ichat is only the begiing of my problems using a mac.... help please

    Why on ichat does my aim message say something about timing out? There is a ! in a triangle and a bunch of numbers. i am not pleased.. i just bought a macbook and i have had so many problems.
    1. pictures being deleted off iphoto and being replaced by ! and i still have no clue as how to fix them
    2. Codes were coming up in the place of ads on myspace
    3. safari shuts off occassionaly
    4. ichat is having problems
    5. this brand NEW macbook is running slow
    Everyone said that this notebook was the best and that i would have barely ny problems... apple is so great...no viruses....no hastle....they must have lied, i dont get y i m dealing with all of these problems. right now i would love to go back to windows cuz i just dont get it... hellppppp

    You sound mad and your irritation is showing...
    It won't help you fix any of your problems. Instead it can alienate possible helpers. This is a user to user forum so if you want to compare your experience to Windows you will not get anywhere.
    I suggest you fix one problem at a time. Every one of these problems you list are fixable, probably, but none of them have the same answer. A separate post on each subject will get you answers that apply to that problem.
    As you begin to fix problems you will gain an insight into how your OS works and you can then decide if you really want to go back to windows. The good news is that your Mac has excellent resale value.

  • Why can I not turn the volume very loud when using headphones?

    When I play music back the volume is not very loud, I have put the volume to the high setting but not very loud. Can any one help?-

    Hi, I have some questions in tha case before we can decide whats wrong
    1) Is it happening with particular song? - if yes then its an issue with song
    2) is it with all songs( check head phones with other player or so it might be faulty)
    3) Is there any volume limit (lock) set on your ipod
    if head phones are fine and if it happens with all songs and if same songs play with good sound on computer you might need to restore your ipod and reupdate the songs may be an issue with ipod but if all songs play with similar kind of sound on computer your ipod should be ok as it might be the sound quality of those songs
