Save same bookmark in multiple folders without having to do it manually. Is there and add-on that can help me fix this issue?

If I have a bookmark in a folder and I save a new folder that may overlap with the old bookmarks the bookmarks from the old folder are automatically removed, this is a problem for me and I cant always manually go fix it.
If I have a folder named A1-D1 that has bookmarks A1, B1, C1 & D1
& now I am searching bookmarks related to A & want a new folder A1-A4 with bookmarks A1, A2, A3 & A4
when I save the new group of bookmarks it removes A1 from A1-D1, which is horrible.
& its very time consuming & frustrating to have to manually fix this every time.
I know Firefox did this on purpose to prevent duplicate bookmarking but this is worse than having the the same bookmark being repeated more than it needs to. Now when I am looking at folder A1-D1 i don't even know how many of them have disappeared & have to search all over again.
I hope they fix it soon.
Please let me know if there is an add-on that will prevent Firefox form ruining my bookmarks.

This extension gets around that limitation for me. <br />

Really nothing to be fixed, that "feature" was added to Firefox 3 when the "Tags" feature was added to Firefox bookmarks. The concept is to use Tags to categorize a single bookmark with multiple Tags, instead of the user saving the same bookmark to multiple folders. I don't care for Tags and save the same bookmark to whatever folders I want it in using that extension.

  • When I use Firefox without menu bar I can see bookmarks. How ever when I activate menu bar the bookmark is missing from toolbar. I tried opening in safe mode and resetting toolbar but it didn't fix the issue. I am using version 7.0

    Do you mean the Bookmarks Menu button on the Navigation Toolbar?
    You only see that button if the menu bar is hidden.

  • TS1468 I am having trouble with two cover flows duplicating themselves more than once, is there anyone out there that can help me with this, they are not duplicated in my itunes library, just the ipod.

    I am having trouble with two cover flows on my IPOD, duplicating themselves more than once, they haven't duplicated themselves in my Itunes library, just the ipod, could anyone have any ideas on how I could fix this problem. I have tried so many times, even if I restore the ipod, it still does the same thing. Please if possible email me at [email protected] with any suggestions.

    Aha! I have sorted it.
    For those with similar problems, the solution is this:
    Macintosh HD > Library > Audio > MIDI Drivers
    Then delete DigiDioMidiDriver.plugin

  • Can't bookmark same page in multiple folders

    I've discovered that unlike in FF2, I can't save a same bookmark in two different folders. When I save the bookmark to a different folder '''it disappears from the first one it was in'''.
    There are instances where I like to have bookmarks in multiple folders. Is there a fix for this? (Other than going into the library and copy/pasting bookmarks manually)

    It may not be possible to bookmark in the way you are trying. It is however very easy to bookmark into duplicated folders or to duplicate bookmarks; as you are apparently aware.
    I have recently posted in two threads, one had a problem because of unintentional duplications
    The other had the problem you have,''' the solution is to work from the bookmarks library; that does allow you to duplicate bookmarks''', you can not only move them but you can also copy them.
    # [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/785766 link to thread] ''"Bookmarks are not synchronized between bookmarks-sidebar and bookmarks-menu/library" ''
    # [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/785750 link] '''''"Where to enable double bookmarking?"'''''
    You may also be interested in looking into firefox's features regarding smart bookmarks, including the dynamic search feature and the ability to tag bookmarks. I would have thought in most cases; because of the other features; it would not be necessary to duplicate bookmarks.
    You should also be aware:
    * there are many addons available regarding handling bookmarks
    * firefox v4 is in beta, and you can try it out without removing your current version (but remember to set up a separate profile) you may be interested n how that handles bookmarks.
    I will try and add the general links another day (I do not have my own bookmarks synced properly on this machine)
    I think firefox has got the balance correct. The other poster suggests the change was a deliberate decision.

    You don't, this is a security measure which can't be changed, however, if you purchase another App within 15 minutes your password should not be required.

  • How do I stop iMessages from showing up on both of my iPhones without having to have two seperate iTunes accounts and still be able to use iMessage between these same two iPhones.

    My wife and I have iPhones.  We share an iTunes account and we want to keep it that way.  My iMessages began showing up on her iPhone and vise versa.  I figured out to go to settings, messages and have only the send/receive checked for our individual phone numbers.  When we do that however, we no longer can send iMessages to each other and it goes over SMS.  I don't want that.  I want to be able to send and receive iMessages with my wife without having to have a seperate iTunes account and without each other seeing each others iMessages to other iMessage users.  How do I do this?

    One of you needs to set up a separate Apple ID for iMessaging purposes only.

  • Is there no way that i can send an email to multiple people without having to choose them individually

    hey there
    I only recently started using this mail.but never thought i would want to do what I just asked.so If there is anyone that can help me.......
    please .will appreciate it very much

    If it is a group of contacts that you send to regularly you can create a mailing list. Here is how to set that up.
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Thunderbird_:_FAQs_:_Create_Mailing_List
    Do you have the Contact Sidebar turned on in the Write window? If not press F9 when you have a Write window open. With this you can hold the control key down and click multiple contacts to select them and then use one of the Add To buttons at the bottom of the sidebar.

  • How to create backup file on itunes for ipod touch 4g game apps data? Is there a way to do it? I want to try an app on my friend's computer, but you can't add apps on another computer without having your own ipod's data being deleted. Thx for any help!

    How to create backup file on itunes for ipod touch 4g game apps data? Is there a way to do it? I want to try an app on my friend's computer, but you can't add apps on another computer without having your own ipod's data being deleted. Thx for any help!
    I want to know how to create a backup file (because I'm pretty new with itunes, and it's hard to use it for me still), how to store my app data/media/videos, etc. And how I can retrieve them back when I'm done with the app I tried on my friend's computer.
    If anyone can help, it'd be great! Thank you so much!

    Sure-glad to help you. You will not lose any data by changing synching to MacBook Pro from imac. You have set up Time Machine, right? that's how you'd do your backup, so I was told, and how I do my backup on my mac.  You should be able to set a password for it. Save it.  Your stuff should be saved there. So if you want to make your MacBook Pro your primary computer,  I suppose,  back up your stuff with Time machine, turn off Time machine on the iMac, turn it on on the new MacBook Pro, select the hard drive in your Time Capsule, enter your password, and do a backup from there. It might work, and it might take a while, but it should go. As for clogging the hard drive, I can't say. Depends how much stuff you have, and the hard drive's capacity.  As for moving syncing from your iMac to your macbook pro, should be the same. Your phone uses iTunes to sync and so that data should be in the cloud. You can move your iTunes Library to your new Macbook pro
    you should be able to sync your phone on your new MacBook Pro. Don't know if you can move the older backups yet-maybe try someone else, anyways,
    This handy article from Apple explains how
    How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support''
    don't forget to de-authorize your iMac if you don't want to play purchased stuff there
    and re-authorize your new macBook Pro
    time machine is an application, and should be found in the Applications folder. it is built in to OS X, so there is nothing else to buy. double click on it, get it going, choose the Hard drive in your Time capsule/Airport as your backup Time Machine  and go for it.  You should see a circle with an arrow on the top right hand of your screen (the Desktop), next to the bluetooth icon, and just after the wifi and eject key (looks sorta like a clock face). This will do automatic backups  of your stuff.

  • My wife and I share an iTunes account. Is there any way to set up a seperate one for her to sync her phone contacts, iCloud and music to without having to purchase all her music again and then share going forward?

    My wife and I share an iTunes account. Is there any way to set up a seperate one for her to sync her phone contacts, iCloud and music to without having to purchase all her music again and then share going forward?
    It would be so much easier having seperate accounts but we have hundreds of her purchased songs on my account and she would need to be able to access these from her account. Possible?
    Also, if we bought a song in future we would want to be able to both have access to it.
    Alternatively, what is the easy way to sync two distinctly different contact lists to one iTunes account?
    Thank you in advance.

    FYI: iTunes account (used to make purchases) is not the same as iTunes library (iTunes on your computer with music, movies, etc.).

    Will we have to create a seperate account for her, or can we all have the same one?
    You can but you will not be able to limit what she syncs.
    I would like to avoid 'checking' and 'unchecking' individual songs every time one of us tries to synch our ipods to the library.
    I don't recommend using (only) the checkmarks to select what to sync.
    Each of you can create your own playlists then sync only those playlists.
    Then add/delete from your own playlists to change iPod content.
    The only time I uncheck items is if I rarely/never want to sync them to anything, such as Christmas music or old audiobooks.
    I suggest you each have your own computer login account. Then everyone has their own contacts, calendars, and everything else.
    You and your husband can share an iTunes library and let your daughter have her own.

  • HT2477 How do I select multiple images without clicking on each one? Is there a way to select duplicate photos to delete them?

    How do I select multiple images without clicking on each one? Is there a way to select duplicate photos to delete them?

    Consider adding the delete symbol to the Finder window tool bar.  This way you can highlight all the photos you want to delete at the same time then hit the "delete" symbol.
    Open a Finder window/View/Customize Toolbar - follow the directions in the customized pop down window.

    Hi rmmilleriii,
    You should take a look at [https://support.mozilla.org/kb/latest-firefox-issues#os=mac&browser=fx9 this article] that discusses some of the issues with the latest build of Firefox.
    There is some information in there that should help you to resolve your issue. Luckily, it is a very easy fix.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • How do I get digital copies from my computer to show up on my AppleTV without having my computer on?  Is there a way to get them to appear under purchased?

    How do I get digital copies from my computer to show up on my AppleTV without having my computer on?  Is there a way to get them to appear under purchased?

    Actually, if you mean Apple/iTunes purchased content, you can go to the content area and go to Purchased... e.g. if you go to Movies > Purchased all the movies you have purchased through iTunes/Apple will appear there... ditto for Music, TV Shows, Music...
    for local copies of media, computer needs to be on with iTunes running...
