"New bookmark" not working properly.

When I go to a bookmarks folder called "Music > Performers" and right click on the folder one of the choices is "new bookmark" However, when I click on "new bookmark" nothing happens. Also: I'm disappointed that "organize bookmarks" no longer appears when I click on "Bookmarks." I need a simple solution. I don't feel that I should use my profile to backup all my bookmarks in order to resolve what seems to me to be a simple problem.

"Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks" has been renamed to "Show All Bookmarks" in Firefox 4 and later.

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

Add new bookmark not working

Running Firefox 3.6.13 on a Dell Inspiron laptop. Everything works great, except for one catch: I can't add new bookmarks. Pressing Control+D does nothing, clicking add new bookmark does nothing, dragging the tab into the dropdown bookmark menu does nothing. I've tried the entire tree of options on the Bookmarks not saved Troubleshooing page (https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Bookmarks%20not%20saved) which, among other things, involved resetting my localstore file, disabling all my extensions/themes/add-ons. I also disabled my Norton 360 firewall, which apparently can cause issues, but this didn't seem to solve it. And I have of course done the usual, deleted all cookies/browser cache etc and tried rebooting. Any idea what else I should try?
MAJOR EDIT: Just realized it doesn't work in Safe Mode. What had happened was I tried to bookmark Google (not realizing I already had) and it let me do that, which is the same in normal firefox- pressing Control+D will bring up the expected box, but only on pages I'd previously bookmarked.

Yes, as I said I tried that. I've disable every single one of my add-ons, themes and extensions but it still won't bookmark. EDIT: Does not work, even in Safe Mode. I agree that's weird behavior but the instructions there don't solve it.
For troubleshooting reference though, here's all the extensions/themes I have installed-if any of them have known issues even when disabled:
Adblock Plus
Adblock Plus Pop-Up Addon
Download Statusbar
Flashblock
Greasemonkey
Norton IPS (I'm unable to unistall this due to Norton's crappiness but I leave it perpetually disabled, and as I said in the original post I've made the changes FF recommends for Norton's firewall/firefox settings)
Xmarks
Lavafox V1-Green
Strata40
As far as I know, all add-ons are up to date

New Macbook not working properly?

Well I recentely recieved my new Mac Book about 3 weeks back now and I recentely have came to find that my z key does not work when I'm on Mac OS X. But if I run bootcamp and go on windows the "Z" key on the keyboard works, the thing is aswell when I press it on Mac OS X it makes like a beep noise and nothing happen. Can someone please help me because although the Z key isn't used alot it is still no good not having it working.
Thanks alot,
Adam =]

Sorry for double posting but I have more information.
When I use the keyboard viewer and press Z it actually shows it being pressed on screen it just doesn't appear in text box's. Also I clicked on google search (randomly to try typing) and I didn't type I just pressed the keys using the keyboard viewers and when I pressed Z on the keyboard viewer it didn't come up so it's definately nothing wrong with the hardware it has to be something wrong with the programmes or something. Also I can write Z when I hold down shift + Z but other than that I can't use the cap lock to write it.
Oh this is all very confusing please help
Adam =[

Open in new tab not working properly. How can I get it to stop opening new windows?

Firefox recently updated and my + open new tab button was gone. I found and downloaded the extension to put it back on, which is now gone but never worked. I have checked options>tabs and it is supposed to be opening new tabs. I can click file open new tab and it still opens everything in a new window. I've loved firefox for several years but if this isn't fixable quickly I'm gone. Can anyone help?

You definitely should not need an extension to get a new tab button!
Do you have any tab related extensions now, such as Tab Mix Plus or Tab Utilities?
Try resetting your toolbar layout by renaming the file that stores customizations. Firefox should returns to the default settings for toolbars and windows. Here's how:
(1) Open your personal settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder
Help (or Alt+h) > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
(2) Switch back to Firefox and exit the program (e.g., File > Exit)
(3) Wait a few moments for Firefox to finish updating files in your settings folder, then rename '''localstore.rdf''' to something else, like localstore-bad.rdf or localstore.old. Alternately, you can delete the file.
(4) You're done with your profile folder and you can restart Firefox now.
Any luck?
With respect to links launching in new windows instead of tabs, the checkbox in the Options dialog should work but there is an exception for scripted windows that have certain parameters set (e.g., dialog style with no toolbars, or a specific size). Launching a link out of a dialog, which is not allowed to have extra tabs in the window, also will launch either a new window or be added to an existing window. Any chance the problem is related to those situations?

Manual drag and drop bookmarks not working properly

I just upgraded to FF7 from FF3.6. When I try to rearrange my bookmarks by dragging them and letting go they do not land where I drop them. After some experimenting I have figured out that they seem to drop ten positions higher in the list than where I let them go.

Use Cut & Paste if you have a problem with dragging.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
*Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
If disabling hardware acceleration works then check if there is an update available for your graphics display driver.

Photoshop elements 9 reinstalled to new harddrive, not working properly

Had to re install PSE 9, now style bin missing, can't use organiser, can't install PRE 9 either (says PSE not installed or corrupted). Please help

Nobody can help you without system information and otehr details. Your issues seem to indicate a busted install, possibly because you didn't do it with sufficient user privileges and files could not be written...

The head phone jack on my brand new iPod touch 5th generation is not working properly

The head phone jack on my brand new iPod touch 5th generation is not working properly. It has sound without the headphones in but when I plug them in it has no sound, it's low, or poppy. I had only used my apple supplied headphones once before and it worked fine. I know it's not the headphones because I tried them on my girlfriends phone and they worked fine.

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.

TS1702 When I update to IOS6 on my 4S Facebook does not work properly, the news feed never updates it only says no new storeys and shows a picture of an antenna. When I reset my phone and go back to IOS5 Facebook works fine. What's up with IOS6 ????

When I update my iPhone 4S to iOS six Facebook does not work properly the newsfeed doesn't load properly and I can never see what's going on all I see is a picture of an antenna and a little thing underneath it says no new stories when I reset my phone back to iOS 5 then it works just fine and I don't have any issues so there must be something wrong with iOS six that isn't letting Facebook load properly

No I did not use any unauthorized methods for anything, I simply reset my phone back to factory.

My APPLE ID is NOT working properly. I am frustrated beyond belief I have tried time and time again to change my apple ID and it keeps reverting back to my original ID!! I even set up a new email to try to submit a new id and it still does not work

To change your Apple ID, follow these steps:
Go to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com), click "Manage your Apple ID", and sign in.
If you have two-step verification turned on, you'll be asked to send a verification code to the trusted device associated with your Apple ID. If you are unable to receive messages at your trusted device, follow the guidelines for what to do if you can't sign in with two-step verification.
In the "Apple ID and Primary Email Address section," click Edit.
Enter the email address you want to use, then click Save Changes. Apple will send a verification email to that address.
Open the email from Apple, then click Verify Now in the email.
When the My Apple ID page opens, sign in with your renamed Apple ID.
If you have two-step verification turned on, you'll be asked to send a verification code to the trusted device associated with your Apple ID.
After you see a message indicating that verification is complete, remember to update all of the stores and services that you use with your Apple ID.

New tab is not working properly as before. if i click on new tab symbol(+),it is not opening.how to make it work?

new tab is not working properly.ie.,i can not open new tabs in firefox.

Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened.

Photoshop not working properly after new installation

I have a brand new Dell desktop that runs windows 8. I installed the Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Master Collection and got a message saying that there were errors during installation and some things might not work properly. I uninstalled and did it a second time. Same message.
I then spoke with an Adobe agent that helped me download a program to detect what the errors were. He said they were minor issues and shouldn't affect the programs. No help there.
I then spent hours today speaking with Dell on the phone and the rep took remote control of the computer and did a diagnostics check on the hardware. He said everything is fine. I asked him if it might be the video card needing an update so he ran an update. Same issues, no change.
We changed the compatability to windows 7 and still no change.
I then uninstalled the creative suite and tried installing it from the desktop. Still same problems.
These are the issues in photoshop:
1)When using certain tools (transform tool, crop tool) the images goes completely black.
2) The background switches at random- sometimes checkered, sometimes grey, and sometimes black.
3) Color saturation is incorrectly represented. It switches whenever it wants. For instance, when I zoom in and out it changes.
In Adobe Bridge some of the RAW images don't show in the program. Some I just can't open. Others open fine. Those images will open in Photoshop but not in Bridge.
So I have no idea what to do and this is becoming extremely frustrating. I should add I haven't had any problems with Lightroom and it works fine as far as I can tell.
What could be causing these issues? Could the install CD be damaged?

I turned off the GPU in Photoshop's preferences as you suggested and everything seems to work properly now in Photoshop. In Adobe bridge the files are also all showing now and there doesn't seem to be the same issue there either.
I also tried enabling the GPU and changing it to Basic and it continues to work, but when it is changed to advanced when enabled the problems arise again.
So it seems as though the problem is with the video card or its driver as you said. I am not 100% sure that the Dell rep updated the driver from AMD but I am pretty sure he did. I did go to the AMD website and ran a program to detect if the driver needs to be updated and it resulted in a message saying that the driver is up to date and current.
As you said this is just a temporary solution and I want to make sure I have a working GPU system. What do you think the problem is then? How would you suggest I proceed? Should I contact Dell and tell them the problem seems to be with the installed video card?

Since I installed the new OS X Lion, the iCal syncing through iTunes is not working properly.

Since I installed the new OS X Lion, the iCal syncing through iTunes is not working properly.
When I sync my MacBook Pro with my iPhone and iPad, the events set in both devices (iPhone & iPad) are not transfered to the iCal on my labtop. Events created in both devices are transfered and copied betwen them when I sync them with the iTunes app (through the MacBook Pro) but they are not trasfered/copied into the labtop (iCal). The events created in the iCal (on my MacBook) are tranfered to the devices as two events on same hour. One, with the description created on the iCal, and the other as a New Event (no description). This is happening since I installed the new OS X Lion last week.
I file a report and talked with an Apple Support Representative, but they could not help me. They have not receive any other reports on this matter. Do someone has confronted this issue. I need to find out how to solve this problem.
Regards,
JAD

Hi Sydness,
Thank you very much for your help. It just worked fine. I have 4 macs in my company for 25 years (one is updated each year), and it is the first time I could not solve a problem for weeks. It gave me the opportunity to join this great community.
