On windows 7 pro, how do i add firefox bookmarks to the start menu?

On Windows 7 professional, how do I add firefox bookmarks to the start menu so I can access my bookmarks without opening firefox first?

Only Favorites can be displayed as a submenu of the Start Menu. You can convert your Firefox bookmarks to IE favorites as follows:
# [[Exporting bookmarks to an HTML file|Export your bookmarks to an HTML file]].
# [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/Import-or-export-favorites-in-Internet-Explorer Import the bookmarks in Internet Explorer].
# In Firefox, install [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/plainoldfavorites/ the PlainOldFavorites extension]. This will allow you to create and manage favorites from Firefox.
# Alternatively, if you use both browsers, you can keep bookmarks and favorites synchronized with an extension like [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/xmarks-sync/ Xmarks Sync].

  • How do I add a bookmark to the Bookmark toolbar permanently and delete it from the Recntly Bookmarked list?

    It seems to me that in a previous version of Firefox that one could add a bookmark to the Bookmarks Toolbar and have it stay there.
    I like to keep things neat and tidy. Now when I delete this bookmark from the Recently Bookmarked list (or the Unsorted Bookmarks list), Firefox insists only deleting it from the Bookmarks Toolbar as well.
    How do I add a bookmark to the Bookmarks toolbar and keep it there? Am I required to keep it in the Recently Bookmarked and/or Unsorted Bookmarks list in order to have it remain on the Bookmarks Toolbar?

    * "Most Visited" and "Recently Bookmarked" and "Recent Tags" are examples of so called [[Smart Bookmarks folders|Smart Bookmarks folders]] and are not real existing folders.
    * Smart folders show a list created by a query of the places.sqlite database that stores bookmarks and history in Firefox.
    * Smart folder lists show a maximum of 10 entries by default.
    * Bookmarks and history items that show up in a smart folder list are stored elsewhere in another folder and any changes made are applied to the real bookmark or history item.
    * If you remove an entry then the list is shifted up and a new entry that wasn't shown previously is added to show 10 entries.
    * If you add a new bookmark or visit a website then a new item is added at the top and the entry at the bottom disappears from that list.

  • How can i remove the jump list (with "frequent", "tasks") that comes with firefox shortcut in the start menu?

    im using windows 7. when i tried adding a firefox shortcut to the start menu (above the recently opened programs) it added some kind of a side menu that stores the frequent sites i visited, and have some "tasks".
    i dont want it and i want to remove it.
    plz help.

    Try to disable some browser.taskbar.*enable prefs on the about:config page.
    browser.taskbar.lists.enabled;true
    browser.taskbar.lists.frequent.enabled;true
    browser.taskbar.lists.maxListItemCount;7
    browser.taskbar.lists.recent.enabled;false
    browser.taskbar.lists.tasks.enabled;true
    browser.taskbar.previews.enable : Tools > Options > Tabs > "Show tab previews in the Windows taskbar"
    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />
    *Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
    *Preferences that have been modified show as bold (user set).
    *Preferences can be reset to the default via the right-click context menu if they are user set
    *Preferences can be changed via the right-click context menu: Modify (String or Integer) or Toggle (Boolean)

  • Following upgrade to Windows 8, how do I restore Firefox bookmarks?

    Microsoft told me my stuff was compatible when I checked before upgrading. All of my bookmarks and most of my desktop are gone. Not to mention most of my programs such as Office !
    I had a long list of bookmarks. Is there a way to restore that list?

    Doing an upgrade to 8 shouldn't have wiped out your bookmarks<br>
    You can find them at ''%APPDATA%/Roaming/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/xxxxxxxxx.default/places.sqlite''
    (the x's refer to random characters
    If you don't see it there, you can try the below steps:<br>
    1. Make sure you can see hidden files/folders - In Explorer in Windows 8 click on view, then make sure 'Hidden Items' is ticked
    2. Go go to:
    C:\Windows.old\Users\<yourusername>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxxxxx.default\bookmarkbackups <br>
    (x's are random characters)
    3. Copy the most recent .json file to your desktop
    4. Open Firefox then open the bookmarks library (CTRL key + SHIFT key + B '''or''' Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks
    5. Click on Import and Backup, then restore, then 'choose file'. Identify the .json file on your desktop.

  • How to delete ADD-INS listing in the "Tools menu

    Hi
    I deleted a couple of "ADD-Ins" I didn't need anymore "CalcTax" and "cTax" 
    stored in this directory: "C:\Users\John\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\AddIns"
    The mistake I made is that they where active and now I can't delete the two menu listed in the "Tools Menu".
    I tried to redo the Add-Ins but it doesn't work.
    I ran the "Remove Control macro" below but no success.
    I checked the Registry for the two Add-Ins but found nothing.
    Below is one of the two Add-Ins macro but not the original one. I deleted them.
    and "No Backup"
    Does anyone know how I can remove the two entries in the "Tools menu.                
    Option Explicit
    Const cTag = "CalcTax "
    Sub Auto_Open()
        RemoveControl
        With Application.CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar").Controls("Tools").Controls.Add
            .Caption = "CalcTax"
            .Tag = cTag
            .OnAction = ThisWorkbook.Name & "!CalcTax"
    End With
    End Sub
    Sub Auto_Close()
        RemoveControl

    Re:  Menubars/menus xl2003 and earlier
    To remove any item from the menus...
    Right-click in the menubar area and choose Customize (a dialog box is displayed).
    Drag the unwanted menu item off of the menu and drop it over the worksheet.
    Close the dialog box.

  • How do I prevent tabs in the task bar from opening everytime I open a new Firefox tabs from the Start Menu?

  • How do I remove ALL Metro/Modern/Universal/Windows Apps without removing the Start Menu?

    So with three separate builds of WTP I've run the PowerShell command to remove Metro/Modern/Universal/Windows Apps. With each build, it also removes the Start Menu. In the thread below, an MS Support person mentioned that that command was only for Windows
    8.x and shouldn't be run on WTP. What? Then why is that command still available? And, why will it remove some Metro/Modern/Universal/Windows Apps, but not others? Are they marked as System required? Why isn't the Start Menu marked as System required? You'd
    think that the start menu would be pretty important.
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/053f63bc-c174-44f1-8f6c-8ead1ad965fb/spartan-and-start-menu-on-10049?forum=WinPreview2014General
    So, with the start menu being an XAML app, how do I safely remove ALL Metro/Modern/Universal/Windows Apps without removing the Start Menu? I have no use for them and don't want them on my computer. Period. There has to be some command like the one we used
    in Windows 8.x that will allow use to remove ALL Metro/Modern/Universal/Windows Apps without removing the Start Menu.
    Don't give an answer like "just right-click and uninstall". That doesn't work for all of these things, and do you know how long it takes to do that for all of those silly things? Too long! That's also not practical for an Enterprise desktop. It's
    also not practical to leave all of that junk on the desktop, so don't suggest that either.
    Dan

    The problem with PowerShell and all of those scripts is that those particular scripts require a lot of typing, or copy and paste, or having to figure out where all of those apps are stored and then insert their convoluted names into the script. For
    me, scripting is like programming. I have no desire to be a programmer/developer.
    I just want an option in Programs and Features to be able to turn these "features" off. We were able to do it in previous versions of Windows. If we didn't want Internet Games, we uncheck the box. If we don't want our users to be able to print
    documents over the Internet, we uncheck the box. And so on down the line for any other "feature" we didn't want our enterprise users to have.
    Or, we could turn those features off using the System Image Manager. Now we have to write some convoluted script with even more convoluted commands for even more convoluted names for things we don't want.
    The easier script in Windows 8.x was just get-appxpackages -online | remove-appxpackages. That removed the majority of the apps for an individual user. The remove-appxprovisionedpackage command, with the convoluted name of the app, would remove them from
    the hard drive - one app at a time, but that doesn't work in Windows 10.
    So, they came up with a DISM command, but that doesn't work in Windows 10 either. I should say that with my limited developer skills I haven't found a way to make it work.
    Again, I have no desire to be a developer/scripter. They are the same thing in my book. I'm a systems engineer. I do operating systems, not write applications.
    Dan
    So, I guess there is no real answer to this question.

  • Repeatedly firefox will not start after clicking on it in the start menu. I have to download firefox again which takes hours. How can I fix this?

    After the PC boots up I click on the firefox icon in the start menu, the hour glass appears but then goes out and nothing happens. I have to re install firefox using safari (which opens) and took 4 hours.

  • How can I set home page for a new tab? how can i get firefox to open the home page every time i open a new tab in Windows vista home basic??

    How can I set home page for a new tab? how can i get firefox to open the home page every time i open a new tab in Windows vista home basic??
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    Firefox can have multiple home pages if you wish. Each home page that will open when starting Firefox is separated by the "|" character.
    See: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
    To have new tabs open a specific web site, add one of the following extensions:

    I am making a graduation video for my cousin using Final Cut Pro. I have photos layered over videos, and I was wanted to find out how you can add a border around the photos so they stand off of the video. Anyone know what I could do?

    You would need an image editor to edit the images and add a border to the image first before importing them into Final Cut.
    Cheapest and very good image editor?

    In windows 7, how do I make firefox start automatically when I turn on the pc

    That worked, thanks. When I turn on the pc, I almost always go to the internet before anything else, so this eliminates one step. It doesn't seem to save any time, however, but it is easy. If anyone else wants to try this, it looks like it's very easy to undo if you change your mind.

    I currently have a PC with Windows Outlook.  If I add an iPad to the mix, how does the iPad interface with Windows Outlook?

    Isn't Outlook simply an email client or a software application on a computer? You can add an email account - whatever email provider that you use - right on the iPad. You can sync your Outlook contacts and calendar if that is what you are asking about, but Outlook itself has nothing to do with the iPad.

    Firefox 4 and later versions save the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session.<br />
    Use "File > Exit" or "Firefox > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit Firefox") if you want to restore multiple windows.<br />
    You can use "History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session at any time.<br />
    You may need to click the orange/gray Firefox button to see History.<br />
    There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default <b>about:home</b> Home page.
    Another possibility is to use:

  • How do I add my name to the camera data file in meta data?

    When reviewing the meta data on my photos I see the camera model number, serial number, focal length, etc.  The camera owner field is blank.  How do I add my name to the camera owner field?
    I'm using Photoshop CC, on a windows 8.1 Pro platform.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Caitlin

    I did add all the info on the menu section you mentioned above.  Unfortunately it does not show up as "Owner" when you view the data file in Photoshop CC for some reason. Copyright info shows properly, but not camera owner.  It's not a big problem anyway, just a pride of ownership thingy .  I downloaded the GeoSetter program, and after reviewing the meta data contained there I don't see an option for "owner" there either.  Perhaps its something that Adobe plans to implement someday, who knows. Thanks for your suggestions everyone.
    This is my first DSLR, all I have shot in the past have been film cameras and we didn't have any of this fancy info available unless we wrote it down somewhere, smile.  I was still using my old Nikomat that I purchased in 1972 when I was stationed in Japan. I was a bit stubborn when it came to switching to DSLR sorry I waited so long now.
    Oh, Trevor, sorry to learn you may be using something other than Nikon, I didn't know there was another brand other than Nikon!

  • How do I add mutiple horizontal submenus to one menu label.

    For Muse, how do I add mutiple horizontal submenus to one menu label. In other words, I have Interior,Graphic and Web as one menu. Under Interior I want a horizontal submenu with Kitchens, bathrooms, closets,etc. Then under Kitchens I may want Bars, Islands and pantries.. Windows 7.

    In plan view drag all of the pages you want in a submenu under the page you have set for the top level menu. So in your situation you would want kitchens, bathrooms, clostets etc under the interior page in plan view.
