My folders aren't showing up in my bookmark list or the drop down menu when I bookmark a site. Please advise!

I just created a bunch of folders to organize my bookmarks. When I try to bookmark a page and put it in the appropriate folder, none of my folders appear in the drop-down menu. Thanks for any advice you can provide. ~cayugakate

Turns out they were showing up, just all the way at the bottom of my list of bookmarks. I just couldn't see them. If you go to "Bookmarks"->"Organize Bookmarks" and then play around in there with highlighting on "Bookmarks Menu" you should be able to figure it out. Otherwise you just have to move them up to the top individually. Hope that helps! ~Kate

  • The bookmarks in my drop-down menu do not appear when I try to "organize bookmarks". When I try to bookmark a page, the folders in the drop-down menu do not appear as choices.

    The trouble started when I transferred applications from my old computer. When I click "bookmarks", all my bookmarks are there. When I try to "Organize Bookmarks", it acts like I have no bookmarks. When I try to "Bookmark this page", it does not show all the folders that are in the drop-down menu. There are a number of bookmark files in the appdata\mozilla\firefox\profiles area, none of which are complete. I tried a backup and restore in the organize menu and a backup was created, but I don't know what was backed up. I suspect nothing was backed up. When I clicked a restore, nothing happened.

    I'm not familiar with Windows 7, but... is it possible there is a permissions problem with your profile folder, or read-only set on any database files?

  • When in yahoo mail I can't move mail into the drop down folders below HTheeninyaabout the 9th folder I the drop down menu.

    When in yahoo mail I can't move my read mail into the drop down folders below about the 9th folder in the drop down menu.  What am I doing wrong?

    To all, embarrassingly enough, I have discovered that I didn't know how to expand the three categories including 'Bookmarks Menu' in the 'Bookmark This Page' pop up interface. It was expanded by default on the initial Firefox opening and first page bookmark attempt. Next use it only showed categories. I clicked and double clicked the 'Bookmarks Menu' line, but failed to see the small, shaded triangle used to expand/collapse list. If it appears collapsed, just tap triangle at left of line to see all folders. It seems to open the same way after I do it for first time. Sorry for the inconvenience, and thanks for all the attempts to help.

  • How can I get the drop down menu on the internet to work, which shows most visited websites? It was working on Firefox, and now doesn't.

    On the internet when using Firefox, the drop down menu on recently visited sites (where you type in web addresses), does not work. How can I get it drop down and show websites that I recently visited, so I can click on them there instead of retyping them every time?

    Make sure that the Location Bar is not set to "Nothing":
    * Firefox (Tools) > Options > Privacy > Location Bar: When using the location bar, suggest: History, Bookmarks, History and Bookmarks
    Another possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • How do I delete Bluetooth devices that only show up from the drop down menu bar, and not in the Bluetooth preferences devices?

    I recently attempted, and failed, to pair/link/use my Playstation 3 Controller with my 13" Macbook Pro Retina (OS X Yosemite 10.10.1), and now I've been left with three unwanted 'devices' in my Bluetooth's menu bar, that don't show up in the Bluetooth's preferences devices, so I am unable to delete them from there.
    The devices in question are labelled as "00-00-00-00-68-2f", "00-00-00-00-68-7f", and "00-00-00-00-68-ef".
    I've read that resetting the PS3 Controller will remove these, but every attempt at that has failed as much as trying to use the Controller for gaming.
    Any help with this little issue will be much appreciated, as I've found it very annoying.
    Cheers

  • "Choose what folder to store your bookmark in by picking one from the drop-down menu. Or "choose"". Neither works, it only and ever shows 5 of 20 folders I have....help

    I want to bookmark a page I click star or right click. I pick bookmark menu as it has all my folders, however, my only "folder" options are the same five, even if I pick "choose" it doesn't give me ALL my folders to "choose" from, I've mess with this for a year now, the only way to get my page into a "folder" that I want but wasn't given the option in the "bookmark this page box" is to bookmark it (not in a folder-because I don't want the choices given to me) then go to "organize bookmarks", find page and drag it into the "folder" I wanted it to go in in the first place......I'm sooo frustrated, why can't ALL the folders you have show up and then pick one? WHY ONLY a few show up as choices...sigh

    Try using the Add Bookmark Here ² extension. You can drag the Add Bookmark window to the size you want to see. <br />

  • Our menu bar no longer works correctly. The flyouts only show the first menu option and none of the drop-down menu options.

    In previous versions of Mozilla we had drop-down menus that contained flyouts that offered more drop-down options. This no longer works in Mozilla 4. If you look at our website in IE7, 8 or 9 and Mozilla 4.0.2 they now work differently. (www.saskschoolboards.ca) Eg. Under About Us / Committees there should be three more dropdowns on a flyout - Committee List; MEPP Report and Semi-Annual Report form. Mozilla 4.0 only shows Committee List and no other drops downs. All of our flyouts are showing only the first selection and nothing else.
    Other affected menus dropdowns are:
    Board Dev / Trustee Development (there should be 4 dropdowns - not just one)
    Communications has Surveys and Elections
    Why is Mozilla not showing our menus correctly anymore?

    I see this error in the Tools > Error Console:<br />
    <br />
    <blockquote>Error: D.getStyle is not a function
    Source File: http://www.saskschoolboards.ca/js/mootools.js
    Line: 279
    </blockquote>
    It looks that the mootools script is no longer compatible with Firefox 4.<br />
    Google Chrome behaves the same and also doesn't open the sub-menus properly and keep the first entry on display once it is open.
    Did you check if there is an update for that script?

  • When I click Organize Bookmarks, I do NOT see a drop down menu for All Bookmarks showing me my bookmarks so I can organize them. How can I fix this?

    I just downloaded 3.6. Not sure if that's relevant.

  • What happened to the drop down menu on the navigation bar that showed previous pages visited? It was to the right of the "forward/back" arrows.

    To the right of the forward/back arrows there was a drop down arrow that would allow you to see the last several stops you had made after doing a search. This was very handy for going back and forth between articles, etc. '''I used it all the time and want it back. '''If this version of Firefox doesn't have it, please tell me how to download the previous version that did have it. Thanks.

    The Back/Forward button drop-down arrow marker was removed from Firefox.
    To get the tab history drop-down list, you can:
    *right-click the Back/Forward button
    *HOLD down the left-click mouse button on the Back/Forward button until the list appears (about 1 second)
    *Add back the drop-down marker by installing this Add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker/

  • Only some of my folders are in the drop down when I try to bookmark a page. I have many more folders, but can't bookmark to them

    I used to be able to choose from all folders when bookmarking a site. I was able to click on 'Choose' and all folder would drop down. After a firefox update yesterday, only 5 folders show up, along with the 'Choose' option. When I click on 'Choose' it takes me to to 'UnSorted Bookmarks'.
    Has this happened to anyone else and how do I get out of this?

    Hi All,
    The exact same thing is happening to me. The drop down only shows 5 of my bookmark folders. Unless I hit "Choose" then they all show but I don't want to take the extra steps. I have 9 different folders and I want to be able to just bookmark a website and drop it into that folder. I end up forgetting which folders I have b/c I only see 5 of the 9. Yes I can see them all when I hit choose but that defeats the purpose of having the bookmark function be a quick & simple one. If I have to "Organize" the folders every single time I favorite a site then its pointless to even show 5 of the folders you might as well not show any. Furthermore I can't even choose the 5 folders I want to show (i.e. the ones I use the most). I would be happy if I could opt to have my top 5 folders in the drop down menu & then the ones I don't use as much be under choose. But there is no option (that I can find) that lets you do that. I've even deleted, renamed, repositioned the folders and nothing is working.
    Btw this only happens when I 1st bookmark a new page. Under Bookmarks I can see all of my folders & links (no problem). This only happens when I am 1st bookmarking a link & want to drop it into a folder I've created.
    Please let me know if there is a way to fix this or is this a system issues.
    Thank you,
    Melina

  • My external hard drive wont show up in the "Save to:" menu when I try to import videos

    My old external broke so I found my old one and plugged it in and went to import some videos on imove from an sd card but my external hard drive wont show up on the "save to:" drop down menu. I've been on utility disk to try and repair disk permission but I can't because the button isn't lit up. I can only click on verify disk or repair disk. I tried both of these but it still wont come on the drop down menu. It is showing up on the left in the event library but it has a little yellow triangle with a black exclamation mark in it.
    Hope that all makes sense!
    Any help would be very much appreciated!

    Ok in disk utility it says Format : MS-DOS (FAT32)
    Sorry Im not sure what you mean by can it connect via firewire? Sorry I'm a bit useless with technology haha
