When I create a new bookmark folder, the name of an existing folder is frequently changed to the anme of the new one, why?

Frequently when I create a new bookmark folder the name of an already existing unrelated folder is also changed to the same name as the new one being created. Sometimes if I am creating the new folder in "Bookmarks Menu" the existing folder who's name is changed is also in the "Bookmarks Menu". But sometimes it will be in the "Bookmarks Toolbar".
This is quite frustrating since the purpose of naming them is to identify them.

This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • Photostream deleting pictures from ipad when it posts a new one, why is this happening?

    photostream keeps deleting pictures from ipad when it posts a new one, why is this happening?

    keeps deleting pictures from ipad
    Where is it deleting the photos from? The Camera Roll? The Photo Stream album?
    Have you exceeded one of the limits? The Photo Stream album will only keep the last 1000 photos and may remove the older photos, if you have more than 1000 photos in the stream.

  • When I create a new album, why does iPhoto 11 separate pictures into untitled albums?

    When creating a new album, why does iphoto 11 separate pictures into untitled albums?  I want all designated photos in the album i created..

    I'm guessing you're missing the album in the left hand pane by just a bit and thus creating new albums for each of the photo you're dragging.  Make sure the album is highlighted as in this screenshot (iPhoto 9.4.2) before releasing:
    A sure file way to get an album with the photos is to select the photos again and use the File ➙ New Album menu option
    and that will produce a new album with the photos that were selected.

  • Can't access my appleId when I created a new one for my dad

    Hi All,
    I really hope someone can help me out with this...here goes:
    I've been using my apple ID for a few years now...I use it for my iTouch at first...then bought an iPhone...and an iPad Mini...no problem whatsover...
    A few days ago..my dad bought his first ever Apple product (iPad Air). The other night we tried to set it up but our internet at home was intermittent so I used the iTunes on my laptop to start it up. When it was connected to my iTunes, it showed on the left panel my name as the iPad's owner which was weird because I clicked on set-up as new iPad. I don't sync any of my apple gadgets to my iTunes.
    Anyway, last night, I told my dad he needed to create his apple ID. So we did, from the Air. And that's when the problems started. When we tried to manage his Apple Id thru a computer, he was asked for security questions, but he wasn't able to input anything except for a new apple ID and a password and that's it. And when we checked out other details when we managed his ID, there were information on the address, and even credit card details...which turned out to be my details. Now when I try to access my own apple ID, I couldn't anymore. It says wrong password. So I went to my laptop and clicked manage my ID and asked my password to be reset thru email. No email came into my personal email address. I tried to do what I can but I can't seem to locate my apple ID. I thought it would send the reset email in my dad's gmail address but still none.
    My old apple ID is also linked to my iCloud. I couldn't access iMessage or Facetime so I decided to create a new ID.
    This morning, when I checked my Dad's iPad...and tried to access his iMessage or Facetime, when it was on the page wherein the apple id was verified and asked which email or apple id the messages should go through, I saw my apple ID there together with his apple ID.
    I know it's a bit confusing but I hope someone can help me out in retrieving my old Apple ID and separate it from my dad's apple ID account. If that's even possible.
    Help

    Oh and to add, when I downloaded the skype app onto my dad's air...I got a notification to my personal yahoo mail, it says:
    Dear My Dad's Name ----------- weird because it's my email address
    Your Apple ID, *my dad's apple id* was just used to download Skype for iPad from the App Store on a computer or device that had previously been associated with that Apple ID.
    I'm guessing his apple ID is linked to my email address...however, when we checked his personal gmail account, he got the same email..

  • I can't pull music from existing playlists to create a new one with the new update.

    I can't find a way to pull music from existing playlists when I create a new one. I make new playlists everyday with my job and this makes it very time consuming for me!

    Unfortunately, you can't.  The primary address for your iCloud account must be a non-Apple email account.  The only exception to this is for former MobileMe subscribers who migrated to iCloud when MobileMe closed, which was 18 months ago.

  • When I create a New Folder (on the desktop or in Finder), the system uses the Generic Document Icon instead of the Generic Folder Icon. How can I change this back?

    When I create a New Folder (on the desktop or in Finder), the system uses the Generic Document Icon instead of the Generic Folder Icon. How can I change this back?
    All of a sudden I noticed that most of the folders on my computer were no longer using the folder icon, but the generic document icon. I had to manually change back the icon being used by opening Get Info for each folder and copying and pasting the generic folder icon from some folders that remained unchanged. Now whenever I create a New Folder (right click -> "New Folder"), the icon that shows up is the generic document icon (white page with top right corner turned down). And I have to manually change it so it shows up as a folder in Finder or on my desktop. I don't know why or how this switch happened. All of the folders now on my computer look ok, but I need to change the default so when I create a New Folder it uses the correct icon.
    I have also Forced Relaunch of my Finder and rebooted the system. I downloaded Candybar but am not sure what will fix anything, so I haven't proceeded.
    Anyone know how I can do this? Thanks.

    Anyone?

  • When I create a new folder, one of my existing folders in another location is being renamed to the new folder's name.

    This has happened twice in the past week. When I create a new folder nested inside two other existing folders, another folder in another branch is renamed to the newly-created folder's name. The folder that is being renamed is inside the Links folder. (I am not expecting an answer. I cannot find another place where I can report an issue with the browser.)

  • When I create a new folder on the desktop of my macbook pro, it is automatically populated with all of the files on the desktop, which I don't want.

    when I create a new folder on the desktop of my macbook pro, it is automatically populated with all of the files on the desktop, which I don't want.

    I got the problem solved. It was pretty simple but new to me. I had evidently inadvertently switched the setting in the "View" tab on the dropdown menu so that all of my desktop folders were populated by all folders/documents residing on the desktop.
    The solution was to open one of the folders, then go to the "View" tab and change the setting to "List." Presto, now all the folders include only the contents I had intentionally loaded into them.

  • When I create a new document the icon doesn't show up in the finder

    When I create a new document and close it the icon is not visible in the finder until I do a search. Then it shows up. I can't move it to other locations.

    So where have you saved it to?
    When you search for a file that is a search result not actually a folder.
    The real location of the file should be shown in a chain of nested folders along the bottom of that window and you can open the folder that the file is in by double clicking on the enclosing folder's icon.
    You need to pay attention to where you are saving files or you will have trouble opening the correct one later.
    If you are new to the Mac go to http://www.apple.com/support/mac101/
    If you have come from Windows the method of saving, finding and organising files is not too dissimilar.

    Hi kamfong,
    Went to Settings where?
    If you want to use your exisiting Apple ID on your iPad, you need to:
    1.     Go to Settings>iTunes & App Store and sign out the new ID, and then sign on the old one
    2.     Go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and delete the iCloud account, and the sign back onto iCloud using the old ID
    You still have not indindated why you are saying that using your old ID originally "didn't work". What do you mean by that? Did you get some sort of error when you tried to sign on with your exisiting Apple ID?
    Cheers,

  • Recently, when I create a new album (untitled), it immediately fills with picture either from the album above it or, if I have a Faces collection open, with the pictures from that collection. Why and how do I fix it?

    When a new album is created it will fill with whatever is in the right hand window,  If you're in the Events or Photos mode it will contain all photos in the library.  Yes, strange behavior.

    Adobe is giving me the runaround when all i want to do is download the programs i bought several years ago. Anyone else experience this? Contacted support, was told i would get a call back.  Account blocked so I had to create a new one to download trial versions to compete my work.  So frustrated.

    You will need to have the serial number to activate the products. Please have then handy & also check the compatibility of the operating systems.

  • My iPhoto library has suddenly disappeared from my computer. When i click on iPhoto it tells me to choose my library or create a new one. However no library option appears. I have searched the computer for the library but it does not seem to exist

    My iPhoto library has suddenly disappeared from my computer.
    When i click on iPhoto it tells me to choose my library or create a new one. However no library option appears. I have searched the computer for the library but it does not seem to exist anymore. I did not have time machine set up, so there is no back up. Is there any way i can retrieve my library?
    Here is a picture of what appears when i click on iPhoto:

    In terms of searching i have searched for photos on my finder. However, none of the photos that appear are from my iPhoto Library.
    Search with FindAnyFile. You can download it here:   http://apps.tempel.org/FindAnyFile/index.php
    Search for any file with "ThumbJPGSegment" in the name. If you added at least one image to your library, the library should contain a file with this name, see OldToad's post: Re: Since I updated to iPhoto 9.5.1, my library is not listed or available. How can I find it? Can I use the time machine to restore it?
