New iPhone 6. Windows 8 desktop. Running Firefox browser as my default. Would like to sync my Bookmarks with Safari on iPhone 6.

New iPhone 6. This s my first iPhone. Windows 8 laptop. Running Mozilla Firefox browser as my default. Would like to sync my Firefox Bookmarks with Safari on iPhone 6.
It would be nice if Firefox was available on the iPhone, but apparently it is not.
If I could do a direct sync of Bookmarks between Firefox on a W8 machine and the iPhone, that would be nice.
Assuming I can't, I have installed Safari of my W8 laptop,
I exported my Bookmarks from Firefox, and then imported them in Safari.
First question:
Safari shows my Bookmarks in a way that is different from Firefox. It shows all the folders fown the left side of the window. If I want to see a saved bookmark within one of the folders, I have to click on the folder name and then the contents are shown in a separate panel off to the right. Can I get all Bookmark folders to open up vertically, that is, down the left side and under the folder name as they do in Firefox?
Second question:
How do I sync the bookmarks so that all hoes-based bookmarks are downloaded to my iPhone. An articel I read speaks of connecting my iPhone to the laptop. I have no idea of how to do that.
Thank you for any help. Not sure what Community to post this in. Sorry. Newbie new to A

I have loaded my Firefox bookmarks into Internet Explorer Favorited. I also uninstalled Safari.
I go to iTunes on my phone and see no wat to connect my iPhone to my laptop. I see Music, Shows, etc., the kind of stuff I would expect, but no clue as to how to proceed.
Would you please be so kind to fill me in on how to "That syncing is done via iTunes. Connect the device to iTunes, select it, then go to the Summary page and select to sync bookmarks."?
I am not sure what you mean by "Summary Page"
Thank you

I think this is what you're looking for.
To use Continuity for SMS and MMS with your iPhone and your Mac, iPad or iPod touch
Your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch need to use iOS 8.1, and your Mac needs to use OS X Yosemite.
Sign in to iMessage on your iPhone, your other iOS devices, and your Mac using the same Apple ID.
On your iPhone:
Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > You Can Be Reached By, and add a check to both your phone number and email address.
Go to Messages > Text Message Forwarding, and enable the device(s) you would like to forward messages to.
Your Mac, iPad, or iPod touch will display a code. Enter this code on your iPhone to verify the SMS feature.

Bookmarks with Safari on iPhone

Hi.
I've got a rather stupid/perhaps very simple question about the bookmarks on Safari.
I want to get rid of the Bookmarks Bar & Bookmarks Menu folder on my iPhone. On my computer I predominately use Firefox but I did create bookmarks for Safari so I have them on my iPhone. I've tried going onto Safari and edit the bookmarks but it will not let me remove these two folders. Any suggestions ?
Thanks.

Hi Aubrey-Jay,
I just figured this out today.
Solution (for Mac):
1. Open Safari
2. View > Hide Bookmarks Bar
3. Safari > Preferences > Bookmarks > uncheck Include bookmarks bar
4. Close Safari
5. Connect your iPhone to iTunes
6. Info tab > under Web Browser, select Sync Safari bookmarks
7. Info tab > under Advanced, select Bookmarks
8. Apply
This will sync up to the new settings we've done in steps 2 and 3, doing so will remove the Bookmarks Bar & Bookmarks Menu folder.
Once done syncing, you need to unselect the Sync Safari bookmarks and click Apply. That way, next time you connect your iPhone to iTunes, it will no longer sync up with Safari's bookmarks.
Best Regards,

HT1918 My iPhone and my iPod have different account email addresses, I would like to sync them. When I try to change (using edit) it reminds me that I already have an account with that name. I don't need the reminder, I need to change the email address

I used different email addresses when I signed up for my iPod and my iPhone. I would like to use only ONE email address for both devices. When I try to edit, it tells me there is already a user with that address (hint: I know that!). Does anyone know how to sync two email accounts into one? Thanks,

When I go into my account settings and try to change my old hotmail address to my current Yahoo! address, it tells me "That email address is already used as an Apple ID." Yeah, I know that. I set up the account that I'd really, really, like to have together, but it won't let me go further. End of activity! It is trusting that my email account and password are correct b/c it will let me make purchases, etc., so it's not like it is preventing fraud or anything. Summary: iPod = Yahoo!, iPhone = hotmail, would like to have both reflect my Yahoo! address.

I inadvetantly put a "Theme" in the background of my Firefox browser ("Personas"?) and would like to disable it but instructions on Firefox web site do not solve the problem?

I have no other details to provide except that the background of my Firefox page is ugly, distracting and I cannot get rid of it. Does Firefox have a customer service group that I can call for help. HELP.

You can uninstall your current Persona and revert to the Default theme (Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Sync maps bookmark between iPad and iPhone

Hello
I would like to sync maps bookmark between my iPad 2 and iPhone 4
Is there a way to do that ?

There is actually a way via contacts, but not a convenient one.
You have to do it one by one for your existing bookmarks in Maps.
You need a Mac to seperate those "bookmark contacts" from your regular contacts.
I use this method now instead of the Maps bookmarks.
0. Make the necessary setting to sync your contacts with iCloud on your iOS devices (and your Mac if you want to use a "bookmark group")
1. Open a bookmark in Maps (or search for something) then click on the i-icon
2. Choose to put it in a new Contact (modify info as you like)
3. Add item for Notes with the text "bookmark"
This "bookmark contact" will now be synced through iCloud to your Mac and other iOS devices
I don't want my contacts to be cluttered with those "bookmark contacts", so I choose to create a seperate group
4. In addressbook on the Mac do a search for "bookmark"
5. select file --> New group from selection
6. after you've added additional "bookmark contacts" in Maps on your iPhone or iPad you have to search and select them and then drag them to your "bookmark group" in address book on the Mac

I have an Ipad2, an Iphone 4 . I want to be able to sync both of these with my Windows desktop and Outlook 2007. I would like to sync to and from the Idevices and Outlook.

I have an Ipad2, an Iphone 4 . I want to be able to sync both of these with my Windows desktop and Outlook 2007. I would like to sync to and from the Idevices and Outlook. When I attempt to sync in itunes I get a popup message asking if I want to delete, Merge or cancel. Not wanting to delete of cancel the only option left is Merge.
When selecting Merge all of the entries in outlook are added to the idevice. The next time I merge all of the same entries plus any new ones are added, resulting in older entries being repeated i.e an entry like “John’s Birthday” will appear 5 or 6 times on the same date.
How do I resolve this issue? How do I get the the sync process to add only new entries?

This is a great question. First, facetime will not work because it has to establish a Call connection first. iMessage should work, but how to get it going I am not sure. Two great Apps to try are, Viber and Skype. Viber is excellent, it works over WiFi, you can make free calls and free text messages all over the world with other users who have Viber installed. It does not even have to be open on screen to work. Viber does have to recieve one text message with activation code, to activate it, this will be your only hurdle, but maybe Verizon can help you get that one text message. Skype does have to be open on screen however, but this can function like Facetime with WiFi connection. Definitely get Viber free in App Store, and put it on all your iDevices so the old Verizon iPhone can function as a telephone when on WiFi.

I am able to open PDFs from the Internet normally using the Adobe Reader X plugin, but for some reason, it doesn't kick in when I open local PDF files.

Do you have any graphics editing software like photoshop or something similar.?
Surely you can just open both images, resize the image you want to add, then copy and paste it into the main image. Save this as a new file and set it as the background.
If you need a graphics editing program you can download one called The Gimp for free. Just make sure you have X11 installed.
