Is there a key equiv to locate a folder if the URL is selected, and the folder is shown? E.g., in Address Book, if a name is selected an Option key pressed, all groups containing that name show as highlited.

It is a bit arduous, roundabout, and time consuming to search for and enable a URL in the Firefox Library, then open the site, then click the STAR in the URL field to see where that URL exists in the Library.
The Apple Address Book (AB) uses a feature that would make locating a URL in the Library MUCH easier:
• Enter a word in the AB to find an address, and with the address showing, press Option key – Any/all Group(s) (folder(s)) containing that address show as highlighted until the Option key is released.
• Could the same/similar be done with Firefox?
I.e., use Find in the FF Lib, select any URL in the displayed list, press Option (or whatever key combo) to show the folders containing that URL.

You can look at these extensions:
*Show Parent Folder: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/7372
*Go Parent Folder: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/7377

  • HT2500 Can you color code contacts or groups so that it shows in the inbox/message?

    Are you able to color code contacts & groups so that it shows up in "their" color in the inbox & message?
    Thanks!

    Set up a rule (Mail preferences -> Rules) for something like:
    If From contains [the sender's email address]
    Perform the following actions:
    Set Color of Message -> Background/text -> Color
    You can also set the first criteria to "Sender is a member of group" with the group name, or have multiple criteria, as suits your purpose.
    Regards.

  • My laptop crashed and i lost my recovery key. All my bookmarks are still showing up on my android samsung galaxy 4. How can I recover my recovery key?

    My laptop crashed and i lost my recovery key. All my bookmarks are still showing up on my android samsung galaxy 4. How can I recover my original recovery key? I tried deleting my account and creating a new one as suggested but now I get a sync error saying the recovery keys don't match. Also is there a way to export my bookmarks from my mobile device?

    If you have lost your recovery key then unfortunately there is nothing to do, it can be regenerated but that will cause all data in sync to be deleted. You could try syncing your phone, then disconnecting it from sync, create a new sync account and connect your phone to send the data to that account, but there is a potential for the data to be lost there as well. sorry.

    Is it because the new itunes looks different.

    Then it should work just the same as on your old computer.

  • How can I copy all the info from a contact card in address book to paste into a documnent?

    The advantage goes to FCP7 if you allow that it can copy and paste filters, audio and video, transformations, and other attributes separately.
    You can do that in FCPX too, as all the things you cited are listed separately in the inspector.
    Here's a little gotcha. Let's say you've color corrected a few clips and you've applied an effect to one and want to paste it the other clips. You switch off color correction and copy the clip. You select the other clips and paste effects. What do you think happens? The effect is applied, but the color correction is applied as well, only it's switched off as it was in the first clip, so all the color correction on the other clips is lost. Fun, eh?
    I'll try to replicate your gotcha - but no, that doesn't sound like fun at all!

  • Mail and Address Book adding second name to contacts!?

    Each time I recieve an email from, for example, my father, Mail and Address Book change his name to 'Dad Bramhall'. I specifically change it to 'Dad but whenever I sync. to my iPhone the address book entry changes to Dad Bramhall.
    This is so frustrating so please does anyone know how to stop it adding/changing a name? Thanks.

    I have tried editing his name on both my Mac and iPhone address book but it just changes to Dad Bramhall again. He has is name listed as Mark Bramhall and how do I change email preferences? Thanks.

  • HT3529 when i send a text/imessge why does the person recieving it see my email address instead of my name?

    when i send a text/imessage why does the person receiving it see my email address instead of my name??

    iMessage requires both parties be using iOS 5. The iPhone 3 can not be upgraded to iOS 5, thus messages would be sent as an SMS (Text message)

  • How to invoke a key press event in application that has focus

    Even though I know there are programs out there already that do this similar function, I want to write my own program that converts MIDI events into keypresses. Here is how it would work:
    - my program does not have focus, some other app has focus while my app runs in the backround
    -a midi event happens
    -a mapping is done by my app running in the backround: midi event->keypress
    -my app causes a keystroke event to be sent to whatever application has the focus.
    my problem:
    The part I am having trouble figuring out is how to invoke a keypress to the application that has the focus. Can someone shed some light how this would be done? I have learned a little about the Text Services Manager but this just a component of Carbon. I'd think that I needed to talk to a much lower level part of the operating system to be able to send a keypress to ANY app that is running.
    I would prefer to work in Carbon, c++
    The thing that would make my midi-keystroke program different from others out there is a much more complex mapping algorithm between the MIDI event and the keypress chosen. That's why I want to write my own.
    Thanks much anyone who can help!!
    Jay

    quartz event services contains the calls needed to perform this function

  • What is the deal with the new Mavericks version of the Mail program..?  I cannot simply double click in the address book to place names in the address line?

    I can no longer simply double click on a name in the contacts list to place that name into an an email??
    You now have to select a single name(or a group), and hit the "TO" button.
    Have the engineers at Apple gone nuts??  They just made it more difficult to add names??  Are they going for a windows workability??
    If anyone out there can tell me how to go back to this feature, please, please let me know..
    Adding addresses is now not working very well....??  Please help!
    Randy

    OK, JUST TO CLARIFY:  I OPEN MY MAIL PROGRAM.  I then start a new letter.  I then click on the little person icon button which opens up the address/contacts list.  This action does not open up the address book as such.
    I simply want to select various contacts from the list.  But now I can no longer simply go down the list to double click on those contacts that I want to automatically drop into the TO field of my new message.  It does not work any longer in Mavericks??
    Now I have to click on each contact, and then go up, and click again on the TO button ....
    Can Apple please stop making tasks more difficult??  The previous version worked great, and now it has been upgraded so that it doesn't work as simply as it did??
    Frustrated.!!!

  • How do I sort my address book by company name

    My new iPhone comes tomorrow. I need to sort my address book in iCloud by company name, not last name first name. If I cant do this is there a third party software I can download for an address book that will allow me to do this?
    PS I am currently not using an iPhone and am manually entering addresses.

    Enable the menu in the Address Book. Then look at the options under View and Sort By.
    More here on sorting: http://www.ramsden.org.uk/8_How_to_sort.html

  • Address book keeps a name I delete

    I keep deleting the name of the person in a company card, and every time address book restores it.
    I don't want it, the person doesn't work there anymore, I need to delete it, I tried evrything, even deleting the card and making it new. Plus, I can't find the command "delete from previous recipients" in Mail and I believe that's why it keeps coming back. What can I do?
    Thank you
    Silvia

    Plus, I can't find the command "delete from previous recipients" in Mail
    Did you check Window > Previous Recipients in Mail to delete that address?

  • Do all the useful notes in your Mac's address book sync over to the Iphone?

    Hi, I'm thinking of taking the plunge to buy Iphone mainly for the usefulness of address book synching but do all the notes entered on my Mac transfer over to the Iphone and vice-versa?
    This is a crucial aspect for me. I know for instance that if you email a contact or group of contacts to another Mac user any notes present on the original contact are dumped (i.e not included) during the transfer - a horrendous oversight on Apple's part in my opinion and I'm worried that this might apply to Iphone connectivity too...
    Thanks
    Simon

    My adress book notes came across from my Mac, though they're not extensive. Just read somewhere that smart groups don't transfer over, although ordinary groups do (mine did).

  • Formation of a separate address book sorted by NAME attribute

    In one Ekchange organization with a single address book, there are Russian-speaking people and English-speaking users. 
    American counterparts, in comparison with Russian not so much. Hence there exists a naming standard in which: 
    Displayname - Cyrillic (Russian), but "FirstName" and "Lastname" - Latin (English) and the attribute "Name" - Latin. 
    In the global address book - names sorted by Displayname (Russian). US users have a problem. 
    How for US users (English-speaking), change the appearance of the book by default, or create an address book in which the main attribute of the sort will be the Name field or LastName?

    Hi,
    You can't change the way the Address Books is sorted - It is hardcoded to use the DisplayName.

  • Address Book duplicates some names.

    The address book duplicates parts of the names of those I sent to.
    Example:
    Babineau Babineau Cheryl
    Currier Nita D. Currier D.
    Miller Harvey Harvey
    But not every person to whom I send has their name duplicated as above.
    I have used "Edit" on these and cleaned them up many time and finalize with Save. Duplicates always reappear. I want this to stop.
    Using: Address Bk 4.0.3 and 10.4.6
    iMac, G4   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    With AB open and active, click TM in the dock to enter it. Go back in the timeline until the addresses you are looking for appear in AB. Select all addresses you need and click restore. You will be asked then to import the addresses into AB.
    Once done, I would suggest you uncheck contacts from the iCloud preferences and delete the contacts from the computer, then recheck contacts in iCloud. This will rebuild the iCloud database files on the computer and should resolve any issues if any exist.

  • IPod Addresses from Address Book - by FIRST NAME!
