My bookmarks folders are all screwed up.

I have created several bookmark folders in the past and all is good with those. But I tried to create a new folder the other day, and now if I click on the star in the address bar it creates a new bookmark in the unsorted list. If I double click the star to move it to the new folder all I get is a list with two of the bookmarks (in duplicate) that I created a long time ago. Also if I click on view /sidebar / bookmarks. I get a list of 3 icons all saying (no title). Only thing I can think of is that I created the newest folder after the last update, and the others were before the latest update.

This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • When I select a page to bookmark all my bookmark folders are not shown so that I can enter the page in that bookmark folder.

    I have a list of bookmark folders. When I want to bookmark a page I select "bookmark this page" but not all of my folders are shown. If the folder is not shown I can not get it to be filed in that bookmark folder. How can I get all of my bookmark folders to be shown. When I go to show "all bookmarks" and select "bookmarks menu" all are shown. I am using firefox 8.0.
    I have updated to firefox 8.0.1, did not change the problem. When I show all bookmarks I have 11 folders but when I try to bookmark a page only 5 folders are shown not all 11, why?

    The problem is that not all of my bookmark folders are shown when I want to bookmark a page. They are shown when I "show all bookmarks" Ctrl+Shift+B but not when I want to bookmark a page. The article how to use bookmarks does not solve my problem. The folders are not shown so I can not use them. Why?

  • All my Bookmarks dissappeared. File folders are all empty!!!!

    Opened up firefox and all my bookmark folders are gone! Yikes!!

    These can't get your data back, but will help in the future.
    These add-ons can be a great help by backing up and restoring Firefox

  • After iOS 5 upgrade my "artists" are all screwed up on my iPhone but are fine on my iTunes. ANY SOLUTIONS?? HELP!!

    After iOS 5 upgrade my "artists" are all screwed up on my iPhone but are fine on my iTunes. ANY SOLUTIONS?? HELP!!

    I had a similar problem to you that I have since solved.
    At first only some albums/songs were missing artwork but they all showed up fine in itunes. I went into itunes and did the view where the album art is displayed next to the album in a list, middle option for viewing. I found that on several 1-2 songs did not have the artwork attached and so that was the cause of it not showing up on my iphone. However after I got all that solved I found that the artworks were all messed up. Much like you described many songs had the complete wrong artwork and some songs on the same album had different artworks or the same artwork showed up on multiple albums.
    I could only come up with resyncing my iphone to solve it. I only use one playlist for my iphone so that I can sort of do manual management and only have to deal with one playlist. So I unchecked the playlist and did a sync to clear off all the audio. Then I rechecked the playlist and did a sync to reload everything and after that was done everything appeared correctly.
    I didn't notice if this was affecting any of my purchased albums, I don't have that many so I didn't think about it but affected a lot of them. I hope this helps in some way and that you can get it working again.

  • Help!  Had to do System Recovery & Now Files are all screwed up!

    3 days ago my computer got a Virus & deleted almost everything off my computer. I had to do a System Recovery to Recover my files. I have a 80GB Video Ipod. I had my Itunes Library Very organized the way I wanted it. Now when I go to my Library, my Music is still there but all the Song Names & Artist Names.. etc.. are all screwed up. My Ipod has my Music files the way i Want them to be organized. How do i Transfer my Files From My Ipod to My Itunes Library without it syncing & adding the Unorganized files to my ipod?
    80 GB Video Ipod   Windows XP  

    Now, itunes will allow me to link my ipod to download songs, but some of my purchases, it will not recognize.
    try playing one of the purchases in itunes for a few seconds. do you get asked to authorise the PC? if so, and if you do, will the purchases transfer to the ipod afterwards?

  • Bookmarks folders are missing

    When I select Bookmark on the bookmarks toolbar, on the left side of the screen it shows all my bookmarks. They appear to be in alphabetical order following the folder groupings. There are no folders visible in the bookmarks section or in the pull-down menu. Installing Safari 3.1 did not help. Deleting the preferences did not fix it. When I go to bookmark a new page, then the folders are accessible, but only then. What happened?

    You can use an Add-on to show add a column to the Library dialog for the folder of the bookmark.
    https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/show-parent-folder/
    The extension may show just the folder name or you can display the full path through the menu to the folder. That full path option is useful if a folder accidentally gets dragged and dropped somewhere so you can drill down to it and find it.
    To access extension settings, you can use the Add-ons page. Either:
    * Ctrl+Shift+a
    * "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    In the left column, click Extensions. Then look for the Options button under the specific extension.
    Any luck?

  • After upgrading to v10 Bookmark folders are shown but nothing happens when I click on the folder

    I organise my Bookmarks in about 7 or 8 folders. After upgrading to Firefox v10 a few days ago, I find that the Folders are still listed but will not expand. When I open the Bookmarks library and select a folder, it lists the description of the sites but no URLs. I have tried to restore Bookmarks from before upgrading but I get message 'Unable to Process the Backup File'. Fortunately, I also store my Bookmarks in MS OneNote, but I don't want want to re-create them if I'm likely to lose them again. I also have Norton Toolbar installed.

    Taking a belts and braces approach lets first of all make sure that you have everything backed up. Having multiple copies is the best way to ensure you have the relevant and latest ones available.
    *make manual backups of existing bookmarks, and do this BEFORE and after any restore attempts, be aware that restores overwrite existing bookmmarks
    ** see [[backing up and restoring bookmarks]]
    * make a copy of your profile and put it somewhere safe, outside firefox program and profile paths (Windows desktop is a suitable location) include all sub folders and files (it includes backup copies of bookmarks and the bookmarks database itself)
    ** see [[backing up your information]]
    I have not personally noticed any reported problems specific to Firefox 10 updates that cause problems with bookmarks. Maybe some extension you have is interfering, but whatever the cause you could now have corrupt or old bookmarks installed. if it was a one-of problem you may be ok restoring your bookarks, but if a problem persists you will need to investigate further. If you continue with making say daily manual backups you know the worse case is that you loose only a part of a days bookmarking.

  • Calendar events are all screwed after reset

    I recently had to reset my IPad through settings. After doing this, all of my the events I entered into the calander app. are now scheduled one day ahead of where they were originally and the times set for these events are all over the place. I don't really want to re-enter the events again. The reset seems to have screwed these up somehow. This was the first time I did a complete reset. In the past, I have only done a network reset, without it affecting the calander dates.

    What do you mean by reset - pressing the home and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release - ignoring the slide to turn off prompt when doing so, or restoring the iPad with iTunes from the iPad's backup?
    Are you syncing calendar events with Outlook 2003 or 2007 on your computer?
    Do you have Time Zone support enabled on your iPad and if so and this is needed, do you have a city selected that is in your Time Zone?

  • I recently updated with the latest version of Firefox. Bookmark the icons to the left of the bookmark name are all gone. Can you provide a simple fix to this? Thanks!

    Recently updated to 9.0.1 version of Firefox. Restarted. All my bookmark icons were not viewable. They are viewable if I go to my Bookmarks Menu - Show All Bookmarks. They are just not viewable in the Bookmarks tab from the top of Firefox (where it is the most useful).

    ''you must modify image.mem.decodeondraw''
    type in the address bar '''about:config'''
    then press the button '''i'll be careful i promise
    then type in the bar '''image.mem.decodeondraw'''
    then '''Double-click '''on it, to make it '''false'''
    ''exit firefox and restart-it''.
    thank you

  • Forums are all screwed up (again)

    Hi
    If a user selects to view 'no reply' posts, then many of them have been deleted - why then do they appear at all in the listing? It is completely stupid to list a number of posts appearing to be there only to constantly get a 'This item has been deleted.'
    page.  Example:
    The display information on post is also screwed up. For example, the header below show 5 replies, yet open the thread and there are actually 6 replies.
    And *why* do blank lines get stripped out?
    Regards Les, Livingston, Scotland

    Hi
    Thanks for reply.
    The remark about deleted posts I made was only one of many. I probably saw 5 or 6 on the first couple of pages. It is just a right pain in the a*** to have to reload several times due to the 'server error' pages only to find it to be a deleted post.
    OK, the post header stats are being investigated, thanks.
    The blank lines removal seems a bit of an overkill when the forum allows loooong code listings, many images and etc - the blank line removal isn't really saving any space in the main.
    Regards Les, Livingston, Scotland

  • Site only works well in Safari...Firefox & IE are all screwed up

    can everyone check out my website (you will get a good laugh): http://www.usbgaggifts.com.
    i just did a huge site upgrade and these are the problems that i am having:
    FIREFOX
    -- the text is screwed up (XXXL and all over the place) on the movies & store pages
    -- type is larger than what i tried to use on iWeb '08
    IE
    -- no Nav Bar = no way to look at any other page on the website
    any suggestions what i do?
    thanks,
    ron

    It's not the image file sizes that's causing the slow down. IT's the javascript file attached to each page that's causing the issue. I don't know exactly why but my site was suffering the same issue, major slow down in IE & Firefox. I went into the javascript file on one of the pages and commented out the applyEffects() entry, reloaded the page and all speed issues were resolved. There are some residual affects from changing this entry (no drop shadows, some borders not appearing) but that was the only way to get the site working properly.
    I'm not a javascript expert so if someone can take the time to look through the code and find out what's actually causing the slow down it would help out everyone on this board greatly.

  • IPhoto folders are all messed up and my pics arent showing up correctly..

    I tampered with the iPhoto folders...I renamed files and moved things around thinking I was organizing things.. but now my photos in iPhoto arent working correctly. Some photos show a thumbnail but dont open.. and all I get is a gray screen with an exclamation mark. Other photos open but at very poor quality.. around 32KB instead of the 1.6 MB that they should be!
    What can I do to fix this problem?
    Also, my computer seems to have 5 copies of all my photos. One copy that is the original... another that is smaller and then more random copies. How can I get rid of those copies.. I've got like 2,000 of them! Ahhh..
    Somebody please help! Any suggestions??

    Hi Diana,
    #1 Two Apple kbs for you to read
    Don't tamper with files in the iPhoto library folder
    About the iPhoto Library folder
    #2 It seems you moved photos around and some thumbnail photos from the Data folder were put in the originals folder (photos open at 32k) and the ones missing (renamed by you). This is how it is supposed to be in the Finder;
    iPhoto 6 Library folder in the Finder
    As you can see the structure is now related to rolls. Rolls are created for each folder you import and each import session from a camera.
    It is very easy to change the names of film rolls within iPhoto to make them easier to find images within. Open the info panel in iPhoto by clicking on the "i" icon. Once it is opened, click on the roll title in the viewing window.
    Click on the word "title" in the info pane and type in your new title. I like to use a date and text format such as 12/25/05 Christmas at Mom's, 1/05/06 my birthday, etc. Once the roll names are changed within iPhoto, they are also changed within the Finder, making it easy to locate an image.
    When importing from a camera, make sure you name the roll with a date and text before the import.
    There is no way to recover from this except to start over with just the original files. This would entail creating a new library, going through the old library and finding all the full sized images and deleting the thumbnail images
    #3 Here are the instructions for creating a new library. BUT remember that in your case it is not as simple as importing the Originals folder again as you moved photos around and in and out of the wrong folders. You are going to have to find all the originals and delete the smaller thumbnails of the same name (unless the originals were overwritten by the thumbnails when you moved photos around because an image has the same name in all the folders (Data, Original and Modified).
    close iPhoto
    -drag the iPhoto Library folder to the desktop
    -launch iPhoto and create a new library
    -double click the iPhoto Library folder on the desktop to open it
    -the two main folders you will need to import are the Original folder and the Modified folder (only if you want to import the edited images).
    -the Originals folder has all your originals photos unedited. the Modified folder has all images that you have edited, rotated, cropped, etc.
    -Drag these two folders to the desktop
    -If you want to save the edited image, find it in the roll in the Modified folder and drag it into the roll of the same name in the Originals folder. It will replace the originals and now will be the original.
    -If you don't care to save any edited images, then don't import the Modified folder into iPhoto or don't bother replacing the edited image with the original image like I just described.
    -If you import the Originals folder into iPhoto you will have all your originals in their named rolls.
    -If you import the Originals and Modified folders into iPhoto, you will have all of the being in the originals folder in the finder. The roll with the same name as the other will have a _1 appended to it's name (in the finder)
    -the roll from the originals will be next to the same roll from the Modified folder within iPhoto. You can then delete any of the images from there if you want.
    I know this might sound confusing but it really isn't.
    Get back if any of this sounds like something you might want to do.

  • My midi files are all screwed up....

    help.....i have about 40 gigs of loops that i use all of the time.....many of those are midi loops that when you drag into garage band...they show up as midi tracks instead of audio files. (i can actually see the little square midi notes) the problem with that is that it all sounds like an electric piano. whether i'm using a drum loop, string loop, synth loop or whatever....if it's midi...it's an electric piano. even the previously saved songs i've tracked...if there's a midi track in it....when garage band loads the song....the midi is electric piano and i didn't use an electric piano sound. somehow it doesn't know where to find the midi files.....and it's defaulting to a piano.
    any ideas?
    thanks!!!!!
    db

    Ya, there's a way that can solve your problem.
    1.) You create a audio (real instrument) track.
    2.) Drag your MIDI loops to the real instrument track.
    The midi will become real instrument.
    This works for me.
