Some folders in a bookmark will not open

Some secondary folders in my bookmarks menu will not open. This just started. I have 24 primary (subject) folders in my bookmarks menu. Five of them have secondary folders.
Using the bookmarks dropdown menu -- of the five, I can not open secondary folders located in four of the primary folders. In all cases, at least one secondary folder will open, the majority will not. One primary folder works and all secondary folders will open.
When I click on "Show all bookmarks", all the secondary files contain the webpages I bookmarked. I can access them by this method, but it is much more time consuming.
Can you help me fix this?
Thank you.

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.

Bookmark sidebar will not scroll and bookmarks will not open in Firefox 7 or 8

Cannot get past Firefox 6 without probelms with Bookmarks sidebar. Sidebar will not scroll and folders will not open to reveal bookmark contents. Had this problem with Firefox 7 and again with Firefox 8. Would like to use latest version for security reasons, but it is useless to me if I can't access bookmarks

TS1506 I have a problem opening some email attachments. They will not open in the mail application on an IPad Air

I recently upgraded from an iPad 1 to an Air. One of its main uses is to avoid printing volumes of papers for meetings, so the abilty to open attachments with mail is pretty important.
There are some attachments that will not open in the mail application on an iPad Air. Some in the same format do (docx). They do open in Mail on my MacBook, and iPad1, or if I go to webmail on any device including a Blackberry, so it is not a file corruption problem. The problem persists on different networks. Other emails from the same sender do work. It seems to be specifically related to IOS 7 or the Mail app. Quickview won't work, nor will opening with a range of Apps which report a file error.
There was an historical problem with Apple garbling pdf files, but this is a new one on me.
All this is a shame because it is opening emails in attachments that was one of my main reasons for buying an Air.
Does anyone know of the cause? A solution?

What about a work-around?

Some Canon CR2 RAW Files Will Not Open In Elements 8

I use a Canon 7D DSLR. Up until 30 minutes ago I never had a problem opening Canon CR2 RAW files in Photoshop Elements 8.
Some files still open others do not. I can think of only one thing. I was shooting a large number of frames and reduced the RAW Image size down from RAW Large Only to RAW Medium with Small Jpeg to give me more room on the Compact Flash Card.
The Large RAW only CR2 files open fine in PSE 8, the Jpegs open fine, but the smaller sized CR2 files will not open and I get a wrong file type message in PSE8.
Any ideas why this would happen? I suspect it is a function of the camera setting, but all RAW files download as CR2 files.
I appreciate any guidance in this matter. Needless to say I am resetting my camera back to Large RAW files only.
Alex

ACR 5.x only supported full-sized 7D RAWs, but ACR 6.x supports 7D mRAW and sRAW, so just update to the latest version of the plugin, following the PSE-specific instructions:
http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/
sRAW and mRAW files are not RAWs because the camera has already demosaicked them to RGB and encoded them as lossless JPG.
Here is technical information on the reduce-sized RAWs:

I have been using firefox successfully for some time but now it will not open. I deleted firefox and re installed it but it still will not open. What happened??????

I have been using firefox for over a year with no problems. All of a sudden it has quit opening. I thought it might be something in my computer so I uninstalled firefox and reinstalled it from your web site. It still will not open. What do I do now???????

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

Firefox 4: Bookmarks will not Open in New Tab"

Firefox 4.0
Bookmarks menu, the option to Open in New Tab is not working. I can open bookmarks in existing tabs but nothing happens when choosing new tab.

OK, I think I have found the issue. If you have imported your bookmark groups or have previously set them up as group that opened just from clicking on the group - it will not work.
I have created the group again and all works fine, I have another issue now - I can not deleted the old group from my list!
Hope this helps.

Bookmark sidebar will not scroll and bookmarks will not open in Firefox 7

After updating Firefox to version 7, I am unable to use the Bookmarks sidebar. The sidebar will not scroll, nor will any of the bookmarks respond to a mouse click to open them. Had to uninstall 7 and go back to 6. Any fix for this?

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

Some folders in my Inbox will not sync or display emails

Using a Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync account I am unable to view emails in certain subfolders under my Inbox. I have about 8 Subfolders and I am able to see that the folders are there in my Inbox, but I can only view the emails in 5 of them. The rest of the folders attempt to load but then say "No entries in this view". In the old BES server there were options to control this parameter but in BES 10 I do not see anything that will prohibit me from viewing them. Am I missing something?

Out of interest, how old is the newest email in one of the sub folders you are describing?
At present, on OS10, it is only possible to view emails which are less than 30 days old, something that is being expanded on in OS 10.1

For some reason my 09' pages will not view documents created in Word 10' any suggestions?

For some reason my 09' Pages will not open any documents from 10' Word. It simply opens up blank. Any suggestions?

I updated my pages and os. I am currently running 09' pages and os 10.6.7. The link I gave you earlier was not correct. I have attached one I just opened up with microsoft word on another computer. My pages opens up but is blank. The link is below:
https://www.vendorportal.ecms.va.gov/FBODocumentServer/DocumentServer.aspx?Docum entId=191194&FileName=VA-255-11-RP-0197-0004000.doc
The only other thing is that word opened it up in compatibility mode and said that the document originated from the internet. Could this be something that is causing pages to not open? Thanks for all of your help.

Need help with PAGES in the document file will not open

Hi if anyone can help me I woud appreciate it-
I downlaoded awhile back the new software X and eveything was fine till I tried to open some documents (pages) and it will NOT OPEN a window pops up a newer version is available but when I go in there are NO UPDATES and I really do not think I need to buy a newer version do I?
Please Help

When you installed the latest version of Pages (and other iWork apps), the older versions were saved in a folder named "iWorks '09" in the Applications folder. You're trying to open a document that was saved in Pages 5 or in Pages for iOS using the older version of Pages. What you probably need to do is remove the Dock icon and drag Pages 5 into the Dock.

Page documents will not open.

Suddenly some of my page documents will not open. I get this message: You need a newer version of Pages to open this document. I have the newest version and it has been opening these documents just fine previously

Sounds like you have both Pages 5 and Pages '09 on your Mac and are alternately opening them.
When Pages 5 was installed, your iWork '09 software was moved to your Applications/iWork folder.
Pages '09 can not open Pages 5 .pages files.
Don't toss Pages '09 however as it has vastly more features and is less buggy than Pages 5.

the problem started when my computer screen broke from something falling on it, the screen was replaced but the people that fixed it for me told me there may be some hard disk issues when a problem like this happens, they ran their own checks and found nothing and i was given my laptop back, then when i tried to use it, i found this problem. everything else works fine.
i have shutdown and re-started my computer multiple times and i have also re-started finder multiple times, both having no effect
i have also done a few other things to find that my apple.com.finder.plist and apple.com.sidebar.plist are both missing, and are not re-creating themselves, i have found no way to bring them back either.

Im having a problem with Firefox opening web pages that i have set as my home page such as Google also will not open Yahoo but will open most bookmarked pages

After starting Firefox the Firefox homepage comes up with the google search, but if i enter anything in the search bar, nothing happens it just says done. Also my homepage is Google, imported from Internet Explorer, but doesn't come up when i start Firefox, And Also at the top on the tab it just says untitled. Now with that being said if i enter in yahoo or yahoo.com in the search tab or even enter in the actual web address, it still doesn't open it just says done at the bottom of the page and nothing happens, But if i go to the Bookmarks also imported from Internet Explorer it will open or display most all of the web pages it just seems to be having problems with search engines such as Google, and Yahoo. Now if i enter Ask.com in the web address search tab it will open that page but if i enter Google.com or Yahoo.com nothing. Also like i said most all bookmarks will open but yahoo or my yahoo that is saved in Bookmarks will not. and nothing happens with any entry made into the Google search displayed on the the Firefox Start Page.

Hi,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!

Safari will not open bookmark pages (nor will it post question!)9th time

Ok. I interrupted someone elses thread - partly I think because of the problem I am having it self in that it was - grab the page while you can! Any page.. and type like mad quick before it changes it's mind.
The problem - I recently got wire free netgear. Safari was working fine. In fact better than on my previous lap which would quite often tell me I was using an "unsupported browser".
Over the last few days Safari often refuses to open bookmarks and also sometimes headings on a web page e.g. after getting to the Apple page "Support" "Discussion".
So to get the pages I want I go to Google(if it decides to open my bookmark google) and try and re find bookmarks that it was opening perfectly well previously.
It tells me it cannot open the page as I am not connected to the internet. The internet connect is showing me that I am connected and when I go through diagnosis it often tells me that the internet connection seems to be working ok. But safari still will not open the page and is teling me I am not connected and so I go around in circles - and eventual open Opera in desperation which seems to work fine.
Having said all that Opera then started doing the same. I have contacted my broadband and they say that some people are experiencing problems with their emails at the moment. So I'm not sure now whether it is a bug in my browsers or a server problem or something else. It doesn't seem SO bad today but it is still a problem. Any ideas for a solution very grateful.

Gawd, how have you managed not to update it?! The current version is Version 3.1.2 (4525.22)!
Small wonder it won't work with 10.4.11.
Have you ever used Software Updater to check whether there are any updates available for your Mac?
I would recommend that you download the latest version from here:
http://www.apple.com/safari/download/
But please make sure that you download the version for Tiger and not for Leopard.
BUT before you do so, and before you install it, please go through the following routine:
Repairing permissions is an important part of regular maintenance, and should always be carried out both before and after any software installation or update.
Go to Disk Utility (this is in your Utilities Folder in your Application folder) and click on the icon of your hard disk (not the one with all the numbers).
In First Aid, click on Repair Permissions.
This only takes a minute or two.
Background information here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25751
and here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302672
If you were having any serious problems with your Mac you might as well complete the exercise by repairing your hard disk as well. You cannot do this from the same start-up disk. Reboot from your install disk (holding down the C key). Once it opens, select your language, and then go to Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Select your hard disk as before and click Repair.
Once that is complete reboot again from your usual start-up disk.
More useful reading here:
Resolve startup issues and perform disk maintenance with Disk Utility and fsck
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1417
If all is OK, install the new Safari, and REBOOT, then repair permissions again.

Bookmarked PDF's will not open in browser window

I just got the latest FF 3.6.6 and installed Nitro from Adobe so that I could open PDF's in the browser. Before upgrading, I could bookmark a PDF and it would still open it in the window. Now it wants to save it. How do I fix this? I bookmark a lot of PDF's because I don't want to save them on my computer, and I use them over and over for my writing.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I upgraded to 3.6 and got Nitro add on

1. Nitro is NOT an Adobe product.
2. It is an alternative to Adobe Acrobat.
3.It currently does not have the ability to display in a browser tab; see 3rd item below.
Company's web site: http://www.nitroreader.com/
User forum (click "Help" at the top of the Company's web site): http://community.nitropdf.com/nitropdf?from_gsfn=true
User forum thread; no in-browser display: http://community.nitropdf.com/nitropdf/topics/launching_pdfs_in_the_browser_window
You should be able to open PDF files from the internet directly in a separate Nitro window (not a tab in Firefox) if you change your settings on the Application panel (Tools > Options > Applications for "...PDF Document" content type(s). Read the following 2 articles carefully:
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing+file+types
http://kb.mozillazine.org/File_types_and_download_actions
The PDF file will NOT open within Firefox because no browser plugin is provided by the company, but instead will open the Nitro program in a separate window and display the PDF there.
Somewhat general instructions; I do not have Nitro, so I am guessing at some names and locations on your hard drive and what you will see on the Applications panel. In the Applications panel, use the pull down arrow (see step 4 in the above article, Managing File Types), click "Use Other".
-If Nitro IS on the pop-up list, click on Nitro, click OK.
-If Nitro is NOT on the pop-up list, click Browse, go to your installation folder for Nitro (probably on C: drive in your Programs folder), open the Nitro folder, double-click on the executable that will open the Nitro program; nitro.exe/nitroreader.exe (whatever the file is named; you might want to find and open the Nitro program before you begin the process to know the exact executable file name to double-click).
