ICloud - will you improve it? The bookmark sync is rubbish

I recently switched to iCloud for a lot of cloud stuff. I already had solutions for a lot of these things but when iCloud came out, it got very confusing and I switched to iCloud.
I used to use Xmarks, which is faultless and syncs across oter browsers too. It remembers bookmarks including the exact locations of folders and stuff. The iCloud bookmarks sync does remember bookmarks but they are all over the place. Folders aren't remembered properly and it's really messy.
I think that you guys really need to pay more attention and do it properly.
I also dislike address book app, and use contacts on the iCloud web app instead. This is a bit clunky and could be better. Google contacts are frankly a lot better - but since iCloud it got too fiddly to mix clouds, so I reluctantly went with iCloud
Fix it please ;)

Trouble with the bookmark sync in iCloud - Mac to Mac

Im having trouble with the bookmark sync in iCloud between and iMac and MBPro, both running OSX Lion 10.7.3 and Safari running 5.1.3
The following is now how my addresses show up in when i try to view the bookmarks
file://localhost/Users blah blah blah then the www.address.
any help...this was working last week and i marveled at the ease of it...
now im utterly frustrated!
any help greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Quit the Mac App Store if it's open. Command + Q. The iTunes and Mac App Store are one in the same.
Launch iTunes then from the iTunes menu bar click iTunes / Preferences then select the Advanced tab.    
Click: *Reset warnings and Reset cache*.     Now from the iTunes menu bar click Store / Sign Out.  
Try the Mac App Store.  If you still have problems, follow the paths here.   ~ (Tilde) represents your Home folder.
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/Cache.db. Move the Cache.db file to the Trash.  
~/Library/Preferences. Move the com.apple.appstore.plist and com.apple.storeagent.plist files to the Trash.  
~/Library/Cookies. Move the com.apple.appstore.plist and Cookies.plist files to the Trash.  Restart your Mac.  Relaunch the MAS, try again.
If that didn't help, from the iTunes menu bar click Strore / View My Account. Make sure all the account details are correct including the Security number from the back of an ATM or credit card.

Can you set up the bookmarks icon in the toolbar to display a vertical list of bookmarks on hover, rather than by clicking it?

I think I used to be able to hover over the bookmarks toolbar affordance (the clipboard icon to the right of the star) and all my bookmarks would display in a vertical list as they do when I click the clipboard icon. Is this possible?

This Add-on - [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/mouseover-bookmarks-toolbar/?src=search Mouseover Bookmarks Toolbar] will open folders in the bookmarks toolbar by pointing, but that's as near as I can get for what you want.
Hope that may help.

Well... I BOUGHT Adobe Ideas for my iPad. Will you just leave the buyers of Ideas on their own?

I used it to sketch and send the files as PDF to use them as vectors. Well... I received the information that it will be replaced by Adobe Draw (good), an app than cannot export PDF (bad) unless I have a subscription do Adobe CC. Simple question: Will you just leave the buyers of Ideas on their own?
Don´t get me wrong, I think Adobe CC is wonderfull, and probably I´ll subscribe to it. But right now I don´t have a subscription and the workflow with Ideas is fine for me. My point is I paid for something that, latter was offered for free (no problem here) and now is being replaced by something with a big limitation (very bad) that is almost a dealbreaker for me.
This doesn´t feel as the good old Adobe for me. Sorry.

iPads sync to 1 computer only.
All media and apps are tied to the Apple ID that purchased them.
Without your relatives ID and password, you cannot update any of the Apps.
I am pretty certain he is also violating Apples terms of service by giving you the apps.

Oh, Apple! Will you pleeease fix the new "Mavericks" so that my poor old eyes don't have to continually hit "Zoom In" or enlarge every time I change to a different page?

There have been issues with the app store and with game center. And they all seem to be on Apple's end. I'd wait for the next update and see if that helps.

How do you get around the single syncing capacity for iPhones?

Syncing my phone to my new computer will erase all of the current music which I don't have a back up too. My old computer died with its vast collection of music from years ago going down the toilet with it, how can I sync without losing my irreplaceable collection a lot of which I will not purchase back and can't because the music isn't on itunes.
I find it extremely frustrating that the iPhone is only allowed to sync with one computer unlike the iPod Touch, its impossible for me to transfer all of my music onto one computer. I just want to have a single library which I can access from several computers, I would like to see improvements in the system regarding this issue.

Syncing my phone to my new computer will erase all of the current music which I don't have a back up too.
You can avoid deleting the iTunes library on your phone when syncing to another computer with the following method:
1. Disable automatic syncing on connection - iTunes Prefs > Devices > Disable....
2. Start iTunes and connect phone.
3. Right click your device tab (left side of iTunes window) and select "Transfer Purchases." This will transfer all iTunes store purchased music, media and apps to the new computer. It won't transfer non-iTunes store music/media that you ripped yourself.
4. It's now safe to sync your phone without losing your purchased media and apps.
This is no substitute for regularly backing up your iTunes library on your PC.
I would like to see improvements in the system regarding this issue.

I am unable to view my bookmarks and the 'Bookmarks' drop down menu will not expand beyond the bookmark folder to display my bookmarks.

When I try to add a new bookmark, I cannot find any of my bookmark folders. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox and still have the same problem.

The screenshot didn't attach.
Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot and make sure that you do not exceed the maximum file size (200 KB) and <u>do not click Preview</u> after you have attached the image.

HT1349 im not using my regular computer - it's in storage- will I lose all the bookmarks, contacts etc that are stored on that computer?

I cannot get to my regular computer as it is in storage, and therefore cannot back anything up. If I change over to icloud using someones else's computer will I lose all bookmarks, contacts and all things on the computer in storage?

You have a question for the iCloud support folks, I would imagine.
We handle questions about the Time Capsule, AirPort Extreme and AirPort Express in this area. If you have a question about one of those products.....we can probably help.

Verizon...When will you ship out the Samsung Galaxy S3?

I'm one of the millions who pre-ordered the Samsung Galaxy S3. I ordered it the first day it was available (June 6th 2012). Now I'm usually very patient, but this whole Release Date issue is starting to frustrate me...and I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels this way. Every other major US carrier is also selling the Samsung Galaxy S3, and have issued release dates for it. Most of them are from June 18th to June 21st. Verizon, when are you going to tell us the release date? On all the pre-orders, it says "Will ship on or by July 10th". Doesn't it seem a little ridiculous to offer pre-orders on such a popular phone, that you're not even gonna release for over a month? That seems almost misleading to me. Now I know Verizon doesn't care about their customers, and doesn't ever listen to them...but would it be too much to ask if we could just find out when the SG3 will be released?

One would assume around that time...
Also other carriers have it marked like that as well...
So............
You could always cancel your preorder and get it from somewhere else. You had a choice to preorder it without knowing the date... It was pretty "ridiculous" of you to do so without knowing when it would be released. A LOGICAL person would wait for a hard date before making any orders.

Need to download Firefox 3.6.8 cant find it will you send me the link

in order to use my on line Bank account I need to download Firsfox 3.6.8 version in English
Could't find it,please send me the link for download.
Thanks

You can get it from here: ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/
But you should be aware that there was a security breach at an SSL Provider called Comodo not so long ago and a number of fraudulent certificates were released. These can be used to create a fake banking site and the Firefox version you're looking for will not warn you that the site is a fraud. For more details, see: http://blogs.comodo.com/it-security/data-security/the-recent-ra-compromise/
These certificates were blacklisted in v3.6.16 and above.

Will you ever fix the BUG n. 5207902 ?

Hi,
I would like to know if Oracle intents to fix bug n. 5207902.
My problem: I cannot debug JSP that is deployed to standalone OC4J - or is it possible?
Branislav

Yes you can debug on a remote OC4J Container.
On the start command you need to include the debug settings
-XXdebug,port4000,detached,quiet
i.e.:
java -ojvm -XXdebug,port4000,detached,quiet - jar oc4j.jar
So in this case port 4000 is the one you can remotely debug to.

When Will You Guys Fix The Working Capital Application?

Every time I apply I get denied for one or two weeks because your application requires an exactly perfect typed out address......and when your a business person who has multiple addresses its almost impossible to guess which one you need to put in without getting banned for a week! I have paid off two of your loans with no issues and im trying to apply for a third one and no one can tell me what im doing wrong. I just keep getting banned. My account status has not changed and my sales only keep going up. Your company and webbank when offering a service need to execute it alittle better and offer more knowledgable customer service staff then what you have now.

Hi eddinchina,
You should have no need to use the Old Sync account.
As long as device or devices are Firefox 29 or later (They should all be Firefox 30 now) you should use the New Sync.
You may use the same email address with both accounts.
