My bookmarks no longer show up in a column when I sign on. (Firefox 5, Vista)

I no longer have a bookmarks column (at the left) when I sign on. Instead, I get a full page of whatever site I bring up. I have tried bringing the column back by using the Firefox button at top left, but there seems to be no way to bring back the bookmarks column. I have Firefox 5 and use Vista.

*You can open the Bookmarks in the sidebar via View > Sidebar > Bookmarks (Ctrl+B)
*You can open the History in the sidebar via View > Sidebar > History (Ctrl+H)
Press F10 or tap the Alt key to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily if the Menu Bar is hidden.
You can find toolbar buttons to open the bookmarks (star) and the history (clock) in the sidebar in the toolbar palette and drag them on a toolbar.
Firefox 4 versions and later have two bookmark buttons with a star in the Customize window.
One star button has a drop marker that open a Bookmark menu.
The other star button without the drop marker opens the bookmarks in the sidebar.
Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"

Since updating to Firefox 3.6.15, I can no longer print coupons from SmartSource. The error message is that Java is not detected. The check box is longer showing in the Options/Content of this version of Firefox, so I can not enable it.

Same PC as I used to post the question. When I go to the "plug in check" page, it shows I am up to date and it is not disabled.

Folders created in bookmarks no longer show up when I right a webpage to save.

folders that where made with right click crate new folder no longer show in that particular menu. they appear under book marks at the top of the page but no longer appear when I right click a web page and wish to save to a folder specifically created for this type of subject, they are no appearing there anymore. I havent added and toolbars or extensions the folders are just not there. I am using win7 home premium and ff 3.6.17

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Bookmarks no longer show under Bookmarks menu

While I was using Safari I lost my bookmarks via clicking the bookmarks menu item. They're still there by clicking the open book in the toolbar. CCC was running at the time.
How do I get bookmarks back under the menu?
Geoff

I am having problems with this same thing. I go to add bookmark and it does not show up under the bookmark menu (ie. I saved a bookmark to my son's high school, under the kids menu option). It doesn't show up to be able to be selected. When I go to show all bookmarks it's there.
Why is this happening? My hard drive just died, I had a new one installed with new system folder (but I am still running 10.4... I like being able to access classic) I've done the updates for Safari and am now running 4.0.4.
Any suggestions on how to get my bookmarks to appear again would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks!!

Bookmarks no longer show up in latest Firefox. So what does one do?

Latest "upgrade" has evaporated my bookmarks. Extremely annoying. So advise on what to do!!

If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key to make the menu bar appear.
Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
*Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize"
*Check that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
*If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the toolbar palette in the customize window to the Bookmarks Toolbar
*If missing items are in the toolbar palette then drag them back from the Customize window on the toolbar
*If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up

New bookmarks no longer show up on the bookmarks drop down list. How do I fix?

click" bookmarks " on menu bar.
click" bookmark this page".
edit this bookmark drop down, click "done".
The new bookmark always appeared at the end of the list. Not any more. How do I fix?

That should work the same way. However, you might want to check "Unsorted Bookmarks" to see whether they are in there. This can be found at the bottom of the Bookmarks Sidebar (Ctrl+b to open).

Bug: Bookmarks do not show up on the browser when there is no connection

Pre is not showing bookmark icons when there is no internet connection.
I am currently on international roaming with no data connection, but am using the Pre over WiFi. The Pre turns off WiFi when not in use, and then reconnects as soon as i turn it on.
However, it takes a few seconds to reconnect to WiFi, and if I open the browser in the mean time, it just opens a blank window with no bookmarks. It has the address bar, but doesn't really work.
If I open the browser once it has connected to WiFi, everything works fine.
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

Same thing happens in Airplane mode. I'll pass this along.... thanks!
(You can't even edit full bookmarks list, either. I can understand, kinda, not displaying the icons as their only purpose it to launch a data connection to the site, which obviously you're not going to do when not connected to data. But IMO, you should still be able to organize your bookmarks, which doesn't look like you can do)

My Z10 no longer shows green led (battery full) when charging

Hi Buddy
I'm just bought and using brand new blackberry Z10 for a month. Everything works fine, I do love the OS, way more better than my old dakota. Especially since I update 10.2.1 now I'm able to install all android application
The problem is, three days lately, I'm no longer see the green led (battery full) even I charge my Z10 a whole night (8 hours). Have try to use another charger, calibrate the battery, do factory reset, etc. But still can't fixed the problem
I know some of you might think its not important, just forget about the green led as long as your battery can long last. But I'm kind of person who always put attention even for small things. And these led problem have ruined my days
Anyone can help?

I have never seen a green led, the lastest software shows the percentage of the charge under the battery icon, each morning mine shows 100%.

Bookmarking no longer works correctly after updating to the latest version of Firefox. How can this be fixed?

In the past, when I tried to bookmark a Web page, I had the option of choosing where I wanted the bookmark stored. If I selected "Choose," I would be presented with a list of all my folders. Not any more! Now, if I select "Choose," I am presented with only three options: "Bookmarks Toolbar," "Bookmarks Menu," and "Unsorted Bookmarks."
Firefox continues to become increasingly difficult to use, and appears to be less stable. I fell that I am being forced to migrate to Google Chrome. What is going on?
BTW, Firefox prevented support.mozilla.org from asking me to install software on my computer, so I was not able to automatically add troubleshooting information.

No. After I select "Choose" the dialog box expands to provide only three choices. This is a new bug. I have only seen it in the past week or so, but it is maddening. I have observed that, while the Mozilla Foundation focuses on trivialities like which search engine should be the default, the Firefox application becomes buggier and buggier. Most of my family has switched to Chrome, and I will be following shortly. Firefox used to be a great program. Not any more. Getting assistance with a problem has also become very difficult.

I want to make the adress bar smaller so that my bookmark bar can show more than three icons when placed on the same row.

I want to have about five to ten bookmark icons in the same row as the search and address bar. So i use Customize... and I put the bookmark bar on the same line. I leave the "Name"-textbox in every bookmark blank so that only the icons appear.
However, only two icons appear and the rest are displayed in a drop down menu from an arrow you click.
I don't need the address bar to take 70% of the screen. I don't want the bookmark bar to use an extra row. I just want to have five to ten bookmark icons next to my address and search bar. Is this possible?

My imovies no longer show up in media options when i am trying to make a DVD from iDVD.

it says "to se imovie projects here, use imovie 3 or later..." but i have not changed anything. even more odd, when i tell it to look at an external drive where i store old imovies it sees only a few of the many i have there. it's like the extensions of some movies got changed or something. help please and thanks.

Where do I find the idvd icon so I can burn a dvd?
IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40.

Links no longer showing as visited after closing and reopening tab in Firefox, or closing and reopening Firefox browser.

(Edited to make easier to read)
Also, if I click on a link and it turns purple then I refresh the page, the link turns back to blue (unvisited / unread).
Is this something new with version 7?
I'm using Firefox 7.0.1 (when did it update to this version?)
In >Options >Privacy tab
For 'history' I have selected:
 
Use custom settings for history
 
Remember my browsing history: (Checked)
 
Remember download history: (Checked)
 
Remember search and form history: (Not checked)
 
Accept cookies from sites: (Checked)
 
Accept third-party cookies: (unchecked)
 
Keep until: 'I close Firefox'
 
Clear history when firefox closes:
Only selections checked are:
 
Cookies
 
Active logins
 
Cache
Also, I always have NoScript enabled and only 'allow' on a case by case basis (even for sites I visit regularly) and even this seems to have some sites already allowed when I revisit them (mainly login URLs) when this didn't used to happen.
My main issue right now though is the visited links not staying coloured purple (read / visited).
I love Firefox and don't want to change to another browser if I don't have to (Linus / Ubuntu would be my next choice).
Thank you in advance for any information you can offer.

Thanks for the reply cor-el!
Make sure that the History is enabled: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Remember my browsing history
 
I have selected:
 
'Use custom settings for history' with only the following options checked:
 
Remember my browsing history: (Checked)
 
Remember download history: (Checked)
 
Accept cookies from sites: (Checked)
Keep until: 'I close Firefox'
Then I have this selection:
'Clear history when firefox closes'
And the only 'settings' selected / checked are:
 
Cookies (CORRECTION: I don't have cookies selected because I always manually delete all cookies whenever I close the browser)
 
Active logins
 
Cache
Make sure that you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode.
 
Yes, I've made sure that option is not selected.
My NoScript settings keeps changing to 'allow' sites when I have it set to be always on (to not allow scripts from any sites) and only allow on a case by case basis even with sites I visit regularly. Could this be correlated?
Why do I have to use html in order for the text separated into sentences and paragraphs, rather than being bunched all together?

My apps are not showing up on new iPad when I sign in to iCloud

I got the new iPad and when I log into iCloud to down load previous apps it's showing that they have not been purchased

When you log into iCloud where? On your computer? If that is what you are doing your apps do not show up in there.
If you want to set up the new iPad from an iCloud backup - read this.
http://gigaom.com/apple/ios-101-set-up-and-restore-from-icloud-backup/
Your purchased apps show up in the app store - purchased music and TV shows in iTunes, purchased books in the iBooks app - look in the purchased tabs of all of those apps for purchased content.

How can I save my bookmarks, then move them to a new computer when I re-download firefox?

I am getting a new CPU and will download FireFox when I get it. I would like to be able to save and or print my list of favorite bookmarks so I can re-create them on the new computer/FireFox. Is there someway I can just transfer the old bookmarks list to an new computer and a new download of the browser.

Hello Hellen.
If you're just getting a new CPU, you shouldn't need to worry about backing up your information, since you don't need to format your hard drive to change the CPU.
However, and I don't mean to insult you in any way, so please forgive me for my assumption, if you're referring to the computer (the tower itself, with the drives, boards and all that) as a "CPU", hopefully this support article is what you need:
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information
The main thing to remember is that you don't need to just back up your bookmarks. You can port your ''whole'' Firefox experience (that includes passwords, history, cache, settings, add-ons, bookmarks, home pages, absolutely everything) from computer to computer by just copying your profile folder around. It's a brilliant thing that many people don't know, and often people will start all over again, which is totally unnecessary and definitely a big shame. I hope this helps.

How to show a value in column when condition is true?

Assume I have the following simplified SELECT statement:
SELECT a, b, ???
FROM tab;
In the third column a value of "yes" should appear when the following condition is true:
tab.c = tab.d
Otherwise the value should be "no" (or even blank).
How can I achieve this?
The solution should be more general for situation if many tabs are involved,....
Peter

How can I achieve this?
The solution should be more general for situation if many tabs are involved,....So do you expect a generalized SQL statement that handles are arbitrary number of tables with arbitrary column names?
It would be helpful if you provided DDL (CREATE TABLE ...) for tables involved.
It would be helpful if you provided DML (INSERT INTO ...) for test data.
It would be helpful if you provided expected/desired results & a detailed explanation how & why the test data gets transformed or organized.
