Why do bookmarks go automatically in "recently bookmarned" rather than folder i choose; how keep book mark list from scrolling

when i create a new bookmark, it is automatically filed in "recently bookmarked" rather than the folder i choose. when i subsequently go to the "recently bookmarked" folder, drag and drop the bookmark in a different folder, there will be 1 in the folder that i choose and 2 in the "recently bookmarked" folder; if i delete both bookmarks in the "recently bookmarked" folder, it will delete the link in the folder that i originally tried to move it to.
1. how to save new bookmarks in the folder i choose
2. how to move bookmarks from "recently bookmarked" folder permanently
3. remove the default setting of where the bookmarks go
another problem is preventing the bookmark list from scrolling - i detest it and would like to turn this option off!

Your bookmarks are most like stored in the Unsorted bookmarks folder if you have created them by clicking the star in the location bar.<br />
You can click the highlighted star another time to open the "Edit This Bookmark" dialog and move the bookmark to another folder.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/how-do-i-use-bookmarks
* "Most Visited" and "Recently Bookmarked" and "Recent Tags" are examples of so called [[Smart Bookmarks folders|Smart Bookmarks folders]] and are not real existing folders.
* Such smart folders show a list created by a query of the places.sqlite database that stores the bookmarks and the history in Firefox.
* Smart folder lists show a maximum of 10 entries by default.
* Bookmarks or history items that show up in a smart folder list are stored elsewhere in another folder and any changes made are applied to the real bookmark or history item.
* Actions like copy & paste or delete that you perform on bookmarks in such a list are done on the original bookmark.

  • I can no longer organize my drop down book mark list ,from the toolbar in alphabetical order like I used to Why ?

    Used to, I could organize my drop down book mark list from the tool bar, in alphabetical order from A-Z by clicking on view, sort by, select . Now every time I add a new bookmark it goes to the bottom of my bookmark list in Unsorted bookmarks . I can go to the bookmarks and sort the menu in Alpha. order. However, when I go back and drop down the bookmark list from the tool bar, the new bookmarks are still in the Unsorted list at the bottom. The bookmark's menu may or not have them in assorted list. This occurred several updates back. Why can I no longer sort the drop down book marks list in A-Z alph. order? This is a major obstacle when trying to search for a particular bookmark that I have made in the not too distant past.

    That did solve my problem. Madperson Thank You Very Much!!!!! I'm not real literate on the mechanics of working computers even though I use them all the time. Basically I'm a point & click kinda guy and beyond that I'm pure novice! This is going to save me a lot of wasted time.

  • How do I get all my pins (bookmarks) to show up on maps rather than choosing one from the bookmark list?

    How do I get all my pins (bookmarks) to show up on maps rather than having to choose from the bookmark list? I can see my list getting very large and more cumbersome to search. In google maps, all my starred locations show up on my map.

    On the device that you don't want the apps to be downloaded on, go to Settings > iTunes &amp; App Stores > Automatic Downloads. Once you turn that off, your problem will be fixed.

    Why are my messages being sent as email rather than iMessage?

    Not being sent as email - shown as being sent from an email address because you have selected to start new iMessage conversations from your Apple ID email address on your iPhone.
    When registering an iPhone with iMessage, the phone number along with your Apple ID email address is registered with it.
    Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > Start New Conversations From - select your iPhone's phone number.

  • I have safari in my iPad but bookmark is not working. I can not book mark any things.  How do I get back my bookmark working so that I can open the web page I have already booked marked.  Thank you for your answer

    I have iPad 2.
    The safari bookmark was working yesterday.  Today book mark is not working.  I can not book mark anything. 
    Did I do anything to prevent stopping bookmark to store?  Please help me how to get back working my bookmark.  Thank you.

    See if this works.
    Quit the Safari app completely and reboot the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • I have an Ipad 2. My wife has an Ipad mini. When we connect to Itunes it installs all the apps from one Ipad on to the other. I unchecked the box to automatically update apps, but Itunes still does so. How do I prevent Itunes from intalling apps?

    I have an Ipad 2. My wife has an Ipad mini. When we plug in to Itunes (at different times) it synchs the apps from one Ipad on to the other. We don't want this. I have uncheked the box for Automatically synch apps, but it still does this.
    How do I get Itues to see each Ipad as a separate item, and not try to keep them "equal" as far as apps installed?

    Remove the apps from iTunes with your device connected. You can basically deselect the apps that you don't want on each device. We have three IOS devices on one AppleID and they don't all have the same apps.

  • Greetings. Can you please tell me why a bookmark is not always saved in the chosen folder? Also, Firefox crashes shortly after opening, periodically. (Both of these problems have been happening with different versions for sometime now.)

    The bookmark problem occurs when I am creating a bookmark. When it occurs, the page is saved to another folder that was recently accessed, and random other folders' names are changed to the same name as the folder where the new bookmark was incorrectly saved.
    The browser crashes only shortly after I open it, and I am closing a tab.

    Bookmarking with Ctrl+D will bookmark to previously chosen folder.
    '''Bookmarking with the bookmark star''' will bookmark to "Unsorted Bookmarks" folder (default), unless you have modified behavior with an Extension. The "[https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/3880/ Addbookmark Here2]" extension has some [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/addbookmarkhere2.txt options] that might be confusing and are optional for those who are looking for old behavior.
    <br><small>Please mark "Solved" one answer that will best help others with a similar problem -- hope this was it.</small>
    Please post only one question in a post, people looking for answers are going to be confused when looking for answers to either problem. For the secondary problem a Google search on [http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&newwindow=1&q=site%3Akb.mozillazine.org+-intitle%3Atalk+-inurl:%22/index.php?title=%22+-inurl%3A%22%2Findex.php%3Ftitle%3D%22+crashes+-intitle:talk&btnG=Search crashes] in the MozillaZine KB may help, particularly the first two hits.

  • Why would you use a managed service account rather than a virtual account in SQL Server 2012?

    In SQL Server 2012, service accounts are created as
    virtual accounts (VAs), as described
    here, as opposed to
    managed service accounts (MSAs).
    The important differences I can see for these, based on the descriptions:
    MSAs are domain accounts, VAs are local accounts
    MSAs use automagic password management handled by AD, VAs have no passwords
    in a Kerberos context, MSAs register SPNs automatically, VAs do not
    Are there any other differences? If Kerberos is not in use, why would a DBA ever prefer an MSA?
    UPDATE:
    Another user has noted a
    possible contradiction in the MS docs concerning VAs:
    The virtual account is auto-managed, and the virtual account can access the network
    in a domain environment.
    versus
    Virtual accounts cannot be authenticated to a remote location. All virtual accounts
    use the permission of machine account. Provision the machine account in the format
    <domain_name>\<computer_name>$.
    What is the "machine account"? How/when/why does it get "provisioned"? What is the difference between "accessing the network in a domain environment" and "authenticating to a remote location [in a domain environment]"?

    Hi,
    “Virtual accounts cannot be authenticated to a remote location. All virtual accounts use the permission of machine account. Provision the machine account in the format <domain_name>\<computer_name>$.”
    “The virtual account is auto-managed, and the virtual account can access the network in a domain environment. If the default value is used for the service accounts during SQL Server setup on Windows Server 2008 R2 or Windows 7, a virtual account
    using the instance name as the service name is used, in the format NT SERVICE\<SERVICENAME>”
    Per the above description, they are two concepts and not conflict with each other.
    As you understand, virtual account access network resources by using the credentials of the computer account. Generally, computer account will not be granted permission unless giving the computer account permission on the shared folder manually.
    Thanks.

  • I just installed the latest iMovie 10.0.2.  Please don't say "look at the help menu" - it doesn't help.  This is radically different than the version I'd been using.  For starters it automatically converts to mp4 rather than .mov - that's my 1st question

    Sorry for the long headline - I'm new to the support community and thought that was the post!  I've been happily using my old version of iMovie - I don't even know the number - I guess it was 11?  I just installed the most recent 10.0.2 and it is radically different from what I've been using.  For starters, whereas my uploaded video used to be in the lower section, and I would edit up above, now it's reversed.  Whereas I used to click on the transitions and drag a blur or whatever to my movie right while I was editing, now it's on a different screen.  And the easy old Export file button is gone, where you could choose setting, file size, export as Quicktime movie - all gone - now it converts to mp4 and I STILL can't figure out how to get it back to .mov
    Please don't say "read the Help manual" - I tried - there's nothing there about any of this.  And by the way, I'm not a techie - I taught myself what I needed to know about the old iMovie and am now lost so please no snarks.  I would appreciate any help.

    Select in browser your movie, click Export on toolbar, choose iTunes, QT etc. then choose size of your file in opening window. And then click Export in this window.

  • How can I get pdf documents to automatically open in Adobe rather than Nitro Pro?

    Hi,
    When I bought my PC it had Nitro Pro installed (a paid for PDF programme, that you get for free for 3 months). The free trial has now ended. However, any pdf document I try to open will automatically try to open in Nitro Pro.
    To solve it, I save it to my PC, then ask it to open in Adobe reader. That works, but seems a lot of work. Surely it must be possible to somehow let the pdf doc know that it should open in Acrobat.
    Any suggestions?

    Highlight the PDF, right click and choose "Open with", click on "Choose default program", select Adobe REader then select "Always use the selected program to open this type of file".

  • Why is PS 6 showing hourglass/egg timer rather than thumbnails in the organizer?

    I have uploaded some pictures using Photoshop Elements 6 and they usually show up as thumbnails.  They are showing as an hourglass/egg timer instead.  All previously uploaded pictures are still showing as thumbnails.  How do I correct this problem?  BTW - in the lower left hand corner of the organizer - it does not say "generating" thumbnails.  I have also tried right clicking the thumbnail, then update thumbnail, but this does not work.  I can, however, view the pictures is full screen mode.
