Problem not fixed

I was very disappointed to discover when upgrading to Leopard that a very annoying problem with Safari has not been fixed. The problem is this: whenever I try to drop a bookmark into a folder the folder opens up automatically and has to be closed using the little triangle before any more actions can be continued. It gets worse: when the bookmark is dropped into the folder the show all bookmarks page pops up to the top of the page way beyond the folder I was putting the bookmark into so that I have to scroll down to find the open folder and close it. If I'm not careful when dragging a bookmark to the desired folder other folders open too and they have to be closed every one.
I can't believe that Apple would allow such a glaring problem to continue but it's true. I would like to be able to just drop a bookmark into a folder and have it automatically be on the bottom of the list than have the folder just spring open like that. If it is going to spring open, then I should be able to set a grace period where you have to hold down the mouse button for a half a second to get it to open like on other spring loaded folders. Then the glitch that causes the bookmarks page to page up to the top is, well, just icing on the cake. Can't they fix that?
Sorry for the rant. My question is, is there any 3rd party software that will help with this problem? Is there any way I can fix it, or will I just have to abandon Safari?
thanx,
Ken

If I drop a bookmark into a folder, the page will automatically shift to the top to reveal that Bookmark at the bottom of that particular folder's list. Unless you are seeing something different, I believe that's how the software behavior was designed.
This is not what happens to me. When I drop something in a folder the view instantly pops to the top of the Bookmarks page and I have to scroll down to get to the open folder and close it. Would it did behave as you describe, that wouldn't be so bad. They can't possibly have designed it to be that way. It's a bug. I have reported it. Ideally the folder wouldn't open at all--if you wanted the folder open you could hold down the mouse button just like on other folders and you could turn spring loading off if you wanted to.
Reminds me that I have to make the bug report again because I didn't describe exactly how to reproduce the bug. Here's how:
:::Click drag an item to a folder in the bookmarks window. The folder springs open, you drop the item in without going down the list in the folder. The view immediately pops to the top of the bookmarks page, far above where your open target folder is.:::
I can't say my problem is solved but your answers have been helpful. Thanx.

  • Date Modified problem not fixed . . . maybe never?

    Dunno if this has come up recently--I couldn't find it in a search. But the problem of a file, being modified and updated, not showing up as such in a folder unless clicked, is a massive one, and obviously has not been fixed with 4.5. I can modify a file, say an FCP movie, then save it, but it will still be down on the list date-wise that it was before I modified it. Only if I highlight it with a mouse click does it go to the top of the "Date Modified" column.
    This is inexcusable. OS 9 was instantaneous. What is it about OS X that Apple can't get right in this incredibly basic Finder function?

    Hello Ben
    If you want to use BT and make connection between the notebook and your mobile phone you must not be any expert. I have done it several times and it works perfectly.
    I can really not understand that your dealer was not able to help you. If you want to use the mobile phone as modem you can configure it on follow way:
    1. activate Bluetooth using FN+F8 key combination
    2. install all new hardware components if necessary (few of them)
    3. start Bluetooth stack (BT Manager) using small icon near the time information using right mouse button > Bluetooth Settings
    4. activate the Bluetooth on the mobile phone (discoverable)
    5. choose Express mode > Next
    6. Choose visible device listed in Bluetooth device list > Next
    7. Choose pass key for identification (1234)
    8. Enter the key into mobile phone. Paring will be success
    9. Go to Next and configure the internet connection (provider number) > Finish
    10. The new connection will be created in Bluetooth stack utility
    11. You can start the dialing up with double click or click with right mouse button and choose Connect
    In my case I use Motorola mobile phone and I am also able to send the pictures to the notebook.
    Please make it again. It must works!
    Good luck!

  • Were any reboot after sleep problems NOT fixed by the EFI firmware update?

    The subject says it all. I wanted to get a read on whether this EFI update really did solve the reboot after sleep problem for all 2008 Mac Pros. If have an early '08 Pro that had the problem before the update and it didn't go away after the update (and it's not due to some other problem like kernel panics, etc.), then please post details in this thread. thanks!

    We have 4 total systems (all had the issue, all slightly different configurations) and the reboot-on-wake issue has disappeared on all 4 of them.
    Looks like a definitive fix to me.

  • Satellite Pro L20 keyboard problems not fixed by BIOS update

    Hello,
    When I type in MS Word or another application, some characters are not displayed. This problem is known.
    I have followed the TOSHIBA's recommendation to update BIOS V1.30 for PSL25E. Unfortunatey, this doesn't help.
    I would be gateful for any advise.
    Thank you,
    olbur

    Hi guys
    In my opinion if the BIOS update procedure doesnt solve the keyboard issue so you should contact the Toshiba service for replacing this part.
    But did you use the right BIOS version?
    You should check you notebook serial number
    The issue was fixed with
    - Bios V1.20 or higher for PSL20*-*, PSL25*-* and PSL27*-*
    - Bios V1.70 or higher for PSL2X*-*, PSLY*-* and PSL2Z*-*
    If it doesnt work the last way is the service point.

  • Pre-xorg7 font problems not fixed after update

    Hello all,
    After several trouble free years my fonts have gone down the shitter.  No idea how or when this issue started, I think it must have been after a recent freetype upgrade.
    Here are two screenies which show the problem:
    · before
    · after
    Notice how font spacing is screwed in term and gvim and how window title has gone to shit.
    Here is my fonts/local.conf
    and xorg.conf
    Ideas and suggestions, please?

    OK - I found this part about bitmap fonts on the wiki:
    Something or someone disabled all my non-scalable (bitmap) fonts, I want them back
    By default, fontconfig 2.3.2-4 and higher will disable the use of bitmap fonts. This setting is managed in /etc/fonts/conf.d/10-no-bitmaps.conf, or in higher versions, /etc/fonts/conf.d/10-bitmaps.conf. To enable bitmap fonts and keep them enabled after upgrades of fontconfig, place a symlink from yes-bitmaps.conf to 10-bitmaps.conf, overwriting the symlink to no-bitmaps.conf.
    That's a recent change my update was on 19th Feb - that has fixed vim/gvim and terms, window title prob persists

  • RSS Problems not fixed with 10.5.2

    I've upgraded to Mac OS 10.5.2 and I'm still having the same problems with RSS feeds as I did before in both Mail and Safari. I am unable to receive new RSS articles to Mail or Safari. Apple said that this issue was fixed with 10.5.2 but it wasn't for me. Please help.

    After reading about the problem in the April issue of MacWorld, page 96 I think, I brought the computer over to the Apple store, showed them the article, and they ordered me a new graphics card (well, it was a little more difficult and time-consuming than that, but you get my drift) - a more recent version of the card.
    Et voila!!! No more screen junk. Isn't that kewl?

  • Time Machine and Mail problems not fixed in 10.10.1

    Time Machine and Mail seem completely broken in Yosemite. If anything it got worse in 10.10.1.
    1. If you see inboxes at all they are empty.
    2. Even if you don't press any buttons, Time Machine changes your account descriptions, order of accounts and in one case even disabled an account!
    So after entering Time Machine from Mail, even you don't do anything, you have redo a bunch of settings afterwards.
    Anybody know a solution for this?
    I've tried talking to AppleCare about this (for a month now) but they never get back to me.
    doug

    What do you see when you enter Time Machine from within mail?
    Also, do you happen to have an external display? I have one and I think that causes extra issues.
    Do you see a stack of past inboxes, and for each inboxes do you actually see emails listed?
    How many email accounts do you have? And what type are they - Gmail, etc.?
    It may be a corruption issue on my individual installation. Or it may be that we have different numbers and types of accounts. So it would be useful to compare.
    I have 4 Gmail accounts, 2 "ordinary cPanel" IMAP accounts and 1 iCloud account. So 7 in all.
    Thanks,

  • Very slow speed. Reported but not fixed.

    After having very slow up to 20mb speeds and constant disconnections I decided to go for infinity option 2 as I had so many problems with ADSL with constant calls to India and engineers coming out.
    The engineer turned up as instructed and fitted the equipment.  No problems there.  He did say I was the only one to have infinity installed at my local cabinet.
    Now the real problems started.  I still have disconnection issues but not as many now.  And the speed I am receiving is worse than my old up to 20mb service.
    I have reported this several times (through the help desk in India !!) and some times an engineer comes out and tests the line, equipment, cabinet and telephones the infinity help desk as it appears they can do things remotely.
    Each engineer that turns up says he is not trained to fix the problem and that he has done what he is contractually obliged to do and then leaves, stating to wait 10 days and see if the problem fixes itself.
    So it appears I'm in a circle of ringing India and being told to wait 10 days or getting someone out who can't fix it, states to wait 10 days and then leaves with problem not fixed.
    What am I to do.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    After getting the mods involved and a fault being raised the fault still hasn't been fixed even through it states on the BT website report and track faults that it has been fixed.  An engineer hasn't been out to fix it so I am confused as to what BT have done to attempt to fix my broadband problem
    Seriously what do I have to do to get this fixed.  It is unacceptable that I'm am paying for a service I'm not getting.
    How is this posted screen from BT Speedtest accetpable for BT Infinity Option 2 with speeds stated as 60mb down and 20mbs up as reported by the enginner who fitted it.
    Your advise will be greatfully helped as I have tried every option now and stil no fix.

    I have an older version of Adobe Digital Editions (around 3 years old) and was very happy with it.
    Then I had problems with my Kobo Reader and asked a friend who works in IT to assist. She could not fix the Kobo but she messed up my Addobe. She downloaded version three and I have an account and a password - was not able to transfer my books from my reader to version three (and I don't like the lay-out - I would prefer to stay with the old version as I also loose all my download date info..)
    But all the books I have bought over the last three years are in the old Adobe Digital and I cannot access them any more. When I use it I get the message "that the document is licensed to a different account. I can't even open the books on my computer.
    When I go to my Kobo library, I cannot also not open my books and get the message "this doc is protected by adobe digital rights management and is not currently authorized for use with your adobe. please sign in with your authorized adobe id and try again"
    I believe the problem is that I do not seem to have a digital id for my old adobe or that the Kobo is not in sync with it anymore.
    can you please help me - going on vacation in three days and cannot go without books.

    Please authorize ADE 3 with same credentials that you used with older version of ADE

  • Billed for Premium Tech Support That Did Not Fix the Problem

    i too was scammed last night by a premiun tech support rep...he assured me that the problem i was having with my pc
    could be repaired and pursuaded   me to purchase the 10 month plan for $14.00 month also said if i canceled prior to the 10 mos i would be charged a $59.99 fee.......I told him I would sign up if he could assure me the pc problem would be resolved.
    He also assusred me that if  it could not be resolved  to ask to be transfered to the billing department to cancel the  the plan   I confirmed this with him at least 3 times and he assured me I would not have to  pay and I could cancel with no monetary obligation if the problem on my pc could not be resolved....well it was not  and my computer was left in worse condition than when the premium support tech began working on it...the support tech worked on my computer for 3 and 1/2 hoursI was on the phone with him until 3:30 am....he apologized and said he did not expect the outcome of what happened to my computer. well needless to say when i called billing i was told I was liable for the $59.00 early cancelation fee  it did not matter that the tech did not repair the problem or that he left my computer in worse condition than when he  began working on it.........so technically what they are saying is that I have to pay for them creating problems on my pc that did not exist before I called them   I  The sales rep I spoke to was "scott : he said he was in massachusetts..I spoke with Eric in BIlling and he said he would note on my account what I had told him and asked me to call after the charge appears on my phone bill to see if i could have it removed...i also called billing again today and spoke with another billing rep and she said she also would note my problem on my account and that hopefully the $59.00 fee would be removed..it is very disppointing to know that Verizon Hires people that lie to consumers.....all of their employee conversations to customers need to be recorded and monitored. I received a recorded message from verizon this am asking if i was satisfied with the service i received from tech suppoort with #1 being the least satisfed  which of course described my experience with them.  If My tele phone bill does not reflect the cancellation  of the $59.00charge I will definitly pursue this matter further....

    I was also billed on July 15, 2014 for tech support that did not fix my computer problem. 
    I was billed $99.99 to my credit card to a tech in the country of India.
    I tried to get my money back but the number I was referred to would not answer.
    I immediately went to my bank which took all of the info and changed my credit card number.
    The bank also did their own investigation and said it seemed to be a scam.  My money was redeposited into my account within 36 hours - not because of anything Verizon did, but my BANK!!   I was so grateful.
    Such service from Verizon's tech department is unethical and inexcusable.
    Verizon customers deserve better tech service than this.  "Ma Bell" would turn over in her grave if she knew how far down the service of the original phone company has gone. It's a disgrace!!  A SCAM perpetuated and sanctioned by Verizon.
    I complained to the Verizon Customer Correspondance Claim Dept.  Do you think they will straighten this mess out?  I doubt it - I am a retiree with an excellent payment record.
    They don't care.  This hurts the American economy.

    When I connect my iPhone to my PC it is not recognised and iTunes does not open. When I connect my iPod to the same PC everything works perfectly.

    it shows in the disk utilities but does not allow me to find a problem or fix the problem? Please help. also my external hard drive is a seagate free agent go, 500GB. it is visible on my tv but has no files in it… i'm scared i've lost everything?

    Honestly i cannot remember sorry, i got it like 5 maybe 6 yrs ago and just started downloading things to it as the memory on the computer started filling up and when i wanted to see photos/videos on my TV.
    My wife did tell me after i had written this post that she did try and record TV to it as it was plugged in. I think by doing so somehow has deleted everything.   It reads on my TV yet has no files in it but won't show up on my computer. hope this helps.
    Starting to think it is going to cost more to retrieve files on it than it will be to buy a newer and larger one.
