Why can't i save the same bookmarks in different locations?

Why can't I save a bookmark for a particular site in multiple locations? If I already have it saved, for instance, in the bookmarks menu, and I then try to save an additional copy into the bookmarks folder, the copy in the bookmarks menu will disappear. This is incredibly frustrating. Thanks.

Using the "star" at the right end of the Location bar, you can only save to one location.
Using the Bookmark Sidebar (CTRL+B opens and closes the Bookmarks Sidebar), you can drag the icon at the left end of the Location Bar to other locations, one at a time, into a folder (will be placed at the bottom of the items already in the folder) or into any position, including a position within a folder. The image below demonstrates; the image is old, but the method still works. This is the only method that I use for Bookmarking, as I place some Bookmarks in multiple folders and I keep the Bookmarks Sidebar open most of the time for easier access.

Cannot save the same bookmark in different folders

Having a page open in FF, when I save the relative bookmark using Bookmarks->Bookmark this page->Show all the bookmarks folder-> <selection of folder> ->Done, if a duplicate of the bookmark exists in another folder it is deleted.
In order to better organize my bookmarks I'd prefer to have duplicates permitted.
Is it possible?

You can do a Copy & Paste in the Bookmarks Manager (Shift+Ctrl+B) to create a copy of a bookmark.
You can also drag the (fav)icon on the left end of the location bar to a folder in the Bookmarks menu drop down list or to a folder in the side bar (Ctrl+B) or to the Bookmarks Toolbar.
In the side bar you need to click to the left of the icon to prevent Firefox from opening the bookmark.

Why can I not separate the stupid "Bookmark This Page" Star from "Show your Bookmarks"? I never use that Star

Why can I not separate the stupid "Bookmark This Page" Star from "Show your Bookmarks"? I never use that star and now it's all I click on when trying to open my Bookmarks. Very annoying

If you want to remove the ★ star icon,
# Install Stylish and restart Firefox when prompted.
#* https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/stylish/
# Click the ≡ Menu Button and choose Add-ons.
# In the Add-ons Manager, click User Styles on the left.
# Click the Write New Style button at the top. Paste the following in the text box, give the style a name, then click the Save button.
#* You may need to adjust the margin values to get the Ctrl+D bookmark popup aligned properly on your system.

Uploaded music to iCloud and it broke up my albums, I now have the same albums in different location with 2 or 3 songs on each one, can I make them whole albums again and how do I keep it from happening again?

Why can't I remove the long BOOKMARKS button from the right hand end of the bookmarks toolbar?

This button is completely superfluous and takes up space on my Bookmarks Toolbar. How do I remove it please?
To be clear, I have the 'normal' bookmarks button on my main toolbar that opens up my bookmarks in the panel on the left. What is the purpose of the Bookmarks button on the right end of the bookmarks toolbar that opens up the same bookmarks in a different presentation, and how do I get rid of it?

Thanks very much Vivek and the-edmeister, now I understand and have managed to remove the unwanted button. I beieve the ergonomics of all this are very poor - starting from the fact that 'customize' gives the impression you are in control of what appears and what doesn't, but this is confused by the fact that Firefox is also adding and removing icons depending on what toolbars are showing. Also, and the main cause for this problem, the icon I want to remove from Bookmarks toolbar does not show on Bookmarks toolbar in 'Customize' view. AND, there's the fact that the icon doesn't even look the same in the two views so it's not obvious that moving the little button (in customize) will affect the larger button with text that's on another toolbar!
For other people with the same problem, my re-writing of Vivek's original solution so it works on my system is this:
Please try this: right-click on the '''+''' after the last tab and '''Customize''' and click, hold and drag the star icon that has the little down arrow beside it from any of the toolbars on which it appears (it probably won't be in the Bookmarks toolbar!) into the Customize mini window.
Thanks again both.

Why can't I restore the same version IOS that's on my phone?

My iPhone 4s has apps on it that are not iOS 6x or even 7x compatible. iTunes/Apple won't let me restore the same version of iOS 5 that is currently on my phone that won't boot up. I have no options anymore except to pay.
1. I can pay a developer to migrate the app I use for work to iOS7 and eventually run into the same problem later and pay AGAIN.
2. I can ditch Apple (because there is no logical reason for this) and pay to go over to a Google phone and pay to migrate my app over to android but have the peace of mind that I won't be forced to do what android wants me to do anymore.
I bought an iPhone, an iPhone 3G, an iPhone 3GS and an iPhone 4S. I don't like using the latest and greatest because I only really care about doing what *I* want to do with *MY* phone. I don't like being told I can't have what I've been using for the past 2 years because Apple has changed a policy or something.
Is Apple doing ANYTHING for people like me or are we just screwed? Can anyone explain why Apple would disallow reinstallation of an iOS i've been using for years now?

if you're saying the default function of 'restore' has always been update to latest for your device you'd all be correct.. but that's not what i'm talking about. shift+click restore and you'll be prompted to browse for your firmware. since the dawn of the iphone (ask anyone that's actually used this feature) you have always been able to use this feature to install same-version ios as to what version is on the device. in the past it was more open, allowing you to update to any version above the one you're on, but that was taken away back in IOS3.. for example.
i'm sure for the average user who has no idea what version ios they use or want this would be completely transparent so i don't really blame you for not knowing or using this feature. for others like me this is a big deal. hopefully someone else who is on the same page as i am will chime in..
i think it's a little crazy to force your users to only use the specific version ios you want them to. have you tried ios7 on an ipad2? hello lag. there are more reasons than mine to want to be able to control what software runs on YOUR hardware.. think about it.

Why can't I download the iCloud bookmarks plugin for Chrome?

Hey guys,
Here's the situation, I am currently running on version 3.0 of the iCloud Control Panel and iTunes 11.1 and would love to have iCloud sync my bookmarks from Google Chrome. However, iCloud Control Panel is not giving me an option to select and I am unable to download the plugin from the Chrome Web Store. The page returns an error stating that "This application is not supported on this computer. Installation has been disabled.". But I do meet the requirements stated on the page.
How do I fix this? Or is there a possibility where I can download the plugin without going through the Chrome Web Store? I am currently running on a 64-bit version of Windows 7 with a single user account as I have read somewhere that someone had an issue in a User Account while not facing the issue on another account. I have attached a screenshot below showing the issue.

Are you logged in with the same account that was used to activate the phone ? If you are, and the apps aren't showing as free, then try logging out of your account by tapping on it at the botto of the Featured tab in the App Store app and then log back in and see if they then show as free.

Why can you not have the same Siri voice used in the US version in the UK and Global search should be available

I have just recently purchased the new iPhone 4s and it is great.
I am now using Siri a lot,however I don’t like the fact that in the UK only the man's voice is available.
I think we should have a choice of a Lady / a man assistant and not just a man who's voice is the same/ very similar to the one used for voice control on the iPhone 4.
Now that we all know that Siri is useless without an internet connection then why only allow Siri to search for items, businesses, addresses etc only in the country you’re in i.e. the UK.
Where if you just go onto the internet or use the built in maps application you can search anything you self without restriction.
I think Apple should really consider thinkingabout this in there next software update for the iPhone 4s.

How do I save the same bookmark in the same folder more than once using the bookmark all tabs feature in FireFox 21?

I was able to do this previously. Recently however, firefox has only been allowing me to save one of the same webpage per bookmark folder. odd request I am aware, however, it is necessary to my usage of the program to make long lists of associated items.

That is not possible. 
When you sue Bookmark all tabs then duplicate tab won't get stored separately, but only one occurrence of a specific URL, so you would need to distinguish them e.g. by adding an anchor (#<random_nr>).
You would need to save a list of currently open tabs to achieve this.
Extracting the links from a sessionstore.js file might be the easiest way to achieve this.

Why can't FC save the folder locations set for render files?

I wrongly assumed that when you go to system settings to select the scratch disks (root folder where all the audio and video render folders and files go, capture files, etc.) that Final Cut would save the folder locations within the FC project you are working in. Makes total sense, but for reasons I don't understand, FC does NOT save these folder locations and the result is that I have render files scattered all over the place on my hard drive and it is quite a mess! Fortunately, the project file remembers where it put the render files, so as long as you don't remove or rename any project folders, everything shows up rendered on the time line as it should. The problem is, if I'm working on several projects at once, I have to reset the scratch disks every time I reopen a project, otherwise the program will save it to the last scratch location selected and put all of the render files in another project's folder. I often forget to reset the scratch disks when I'm busy and now I have render files mixed up in various project folders.
Why can't you just set the scratch disks one time when you first set up the project and have the project always remember that location, instead of always having to reset them every time you reopen a project. I love Final Cut, but this is a product defect that should be addressed and corrected. If the project file can remember where it is putting all the render files, it should also be capable of remembering the scratch disk locations you originally selected when you first set up the project or better yet, save it to the project's root folder by default. Am I missing something here?

As MtD describes, FCP sets file locations for ALL projects at the system level. It may help to organize things this way so your files don't end up scattered across multiple locations.
Save the project files to your User folder on the boot drive.
For all the other files FCP creates, set them on a non-boot drive similar to this:
Media Drive
----->FCP Documents
---------->Autosave Vault
---------------->Acme Widgets Demo (sample project name)
---------------->Grass Valley Music Video (sample project name)
---------------->Jen's Wedding (sample project name)
---------->Audio Render Files
---------------->Acme Widgets Demo (sample project name)
---------------->Grass Valley Music Video (sample project name)
---------------->Jen's Wedding (sample project name)
---------->Capture Scratch
---------------->Acme Widgets Demo (sample project name)
---------------->Grass Valley Music Video (sample project name)
---------------->Jen's Wedding (sample project name)
----------->Render Files
---------------->Acme Widgets Demo (sample project name)
---------------->Grass Valley Music Video (sample project name)
---------------->Jen's Wedding (sample project name)
----------->Waveform Cache
Of course, you can choose to keep renders or the Autosave Vault folder on other drives ... just keep them off your boot drive. It may not be the way you're use to working, but it's worked well for me the past 14 years. When you finish with a project and ready to delete the associate files, just go to your media drive and delete folders bearing the project's name.

The Dolphin Browser is compatible with the Toshiba Thrive (I can see video). Why can't Firefox provide the same?

The Toshiba Thrive is not listed on your site as a compatible device. I have installed Firefox on my Thrive. I love the inteface. But, the lack of a flash plugin is a deal breaker. If Dolphïn and Opera and Maxthon can provide it, why can't FF?

Flash on Android is not the same as Flash on Windows or OS X. Adobe and Google have both radically changed how browsers and plugins interact. Without documentation about these changes the Firefox developers need to try and make educated guesses about what Adobe and Google designed. This is a slow and hard process.
Most browser are only a skin over the Android stock browser. Thus they get Flash support for free. Getting Flash working on a non-stock browser is a lot more work. Firefox 10 will provide very limited support for Flash in 2.2 and 2.3 devices.
Work is ongoing on getting Flash working on Honeycomb devices.

Why can't I have the same apple ID for iCloud and iTunes?

After down loading the latest upgrade on my 5s, the iCloud Apple ID (which is an email address I don't use) keeps asking me for a password that I don't have. When I change it to a new password (I've done it 4 times) it keeps going back to the password is incorrect. I've tried to restore the phone to factory settings and that still doesn't work. I have no problem with my Itunes ID or password so I don't know how to change the iCloud ID or password so it can be the same ID and password for iTunes. Can someone help me bc I'm about to go crazy!

I'm not entirely clear about which Apple ID you are describing. Is this the ID for Settings/iCloud? You say it isn't an email you use. But was it an email you ever used? Or is it one you don't recognize? If you used it in the past you can reset your Apple ID to it temporarily (https://appleid.apple.com), log out, then log back in with the new one. If you forgot the password you can attempt to find it at https://iforgot.apple.com. As a fallback you can contact Apple Account Security at Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security - Apple Support.
If you are not the first owner of the phone and the Apple ID is NOT one that you have ever used the phone is Activation Locked to the previous owner, and only the previous owner can unlock it. See: Find My iPhone Activation Lock: Removing a device from a previous owner’s account - Apple Support

When I turned in my iTunes account b/c fraud activity had been detected while my iPhone was not working so they disenabled my iTunes account but I got my new apple id back to download free games but I can't use my debit card anymore and want to use the same card as that is the only access I have as a form of payment

You can give feed back to Apple from the iTunes drop-down menu in the iTunes menu bar..
