Adding a folder in "start".

Thanks Big_Dave, I arrived in 'Start-up' in an effort to add Firefox as a folder so that it would take me to my home page when I logged in, rather than on the desktop, it does now.   Problem is: I have no idea what I'm doing and that means that I don't know how to add this folder for Firefox.  The start page is empty or incidentally, I just got this PC yesterday after my other big once crashed.

Any suggestions?  Thank you Fred

Fred,

You want to have Firefox start when you log in to Windows?  You don't need to add a folder, just the shortcut for Firefox. Just Naviagate in the startup as folder indicated in your previous post, reduce the window down in size, close the other windows now, click and hold the Firefox desktop icon and drag it to your window always open to the startup folder and make a copy.

  • Problem adding a folder of images

    Hi, I have been a user of Lightroom 5 for a while now and everything was absolutely perfect, but I now have a problem adding a folder to put the images in LR.  I checked using "Finder" that the images are still there on my external hard drive, which fortunately they are, but when I navigate to that folder in the section "Add files" it shows no images at all, and the 'Import' button is grayed.  There is a new catalog, I created for 2015 customers otherwise the only other change is that I have been preselected a few images using photomechanical moved selected files into a new folder created by me.  Otherwise I have not changed anything else from my usual game to the top.  As a validation test, I tried adding several different sets of RAWS in different folders (which I have previously worked on in other catalogs so I know they were fine before), but I'm having the same problem.  Please can anyone help shed light on what clearly is a bit a killer of productivity right now!  Thank you very much

    DJ - it's a Canon 5 d Mk III, using Lightroom 5.7, and the images are all of the FIRST.  All images have been imported from the map in a folder on my external hard drive, before I used photomechanical to them for review.

    I am pleased to say that the problem is now solved.  I found another thread in forum with many people have exactly the same problem and with various corrections that have worked for them but not for me.  Then I found one that worked for many people - just expand the Destination panel and hey presto - all images appeared.  How weird randomly - I do not know how it was fixed, but there, so now I'm still productive.

    Thanks again to you and Joe for all your interest and your willingness to help - its much appreciated!  I'm now going to edit some pictures

  • Best folder to start the recursive backup of?

    Recently had difficulty to recover my Thunderbird and Lightning files after an accident in Ubuntu 14.04. Is .thunderbird the best place to start a recursive backup?

    I would say that Yes, but it depends where. Thunderbird is. Try the info below to be sure.

    Click on the Help menu, then the troubleshooting information. Click the Open button to the profile folder.

    This location or the one above him is a good starting point for a backup.

  • Adding the folder using XP Pro permissions

    I work as an entrepreneur at a doctor's office and add permissions to 2 folders.  When I go to the Security tab and try to add or the same view, I get a window asking for user name and pw.  The user name field has a menu drop-down and the only name in there is xxxxxx/administrator.  I choose it and then put in the admin pw but won't give me access.  The admin pw works to connect to the computer so why it doesn't work to add folder permissions?  Thanks in advance.

    This is the first I've heard of behavior like this.  When in doubt, I usually fall back to the command line approach.  If nothing else, the error messages seem more understandable.  Bring up a command window (start-> Run-> "cmd") and use the CACLS command to modify the permissions.  You can also check your user name [admin] is in the "Administrators" group with the command: (net localgroup administrators).

  • Added toolbar folder icon problem when locking taskbar

    I like the feature to allow you to create a toolbar on the toolbar effectively the content of the folder shortcut to different places.  Not sure if this is a new feature of 7, but I just found and take advantage.

    I have two, and I've resized the so that only the text of the toolbar and ">" appear.

    The problem I have, is that when I chose to lock the taskbar, everything is resized, and I get two full or partial folder icons that come into view.  These icons represent the child folder under the folder main toolbar choice.

    As an example, I have a folder called "Source Files" I created the toolbar, so it reads Source files > in my taskbar.  When I lock the taskbar, then I get a partial folder icon to the right of ">" that links to the first folder in the Source files directory.

    Not the end of the world, but sticky.

    Does anyone have a suggested fix?  Something in the registry, perhaps?

    Wow, I'm not, but I could have found the answer to this annoying bug.  It worked for me and I was able to reproduce several times.

    my setup: I have my toolbars crumpled to the left, right next to my Start button.
    with the taskbar unlocked, I moved my whole bar vertically on the left side of my screen, so that my departure the button appears in the upper left corner of my screen and my toolbars align underneath.
    I noticed when I did that I could see partial icons when my taskbar has been unlocked (which wasn't the case when my bar was horizontal at the bottom of my screen).
    I have re-scrunched up all my icons while my bar is vertical, moved my bar together down again once (horizontal) and closed the taskbar.  not more partial icons (at least for me)!
  • In the past, I've added the folder appdata in my personnel file, now I want to get rid of him, how?

    in the past somehow I added the appdata folder to my personal user account folder (you know where contacts, desktop, downloads, Favorites, documents, photos, videos, files, etc.)

    It is a ghost folder that opens.

    How can I remove it from there?

    AppData is a file provided by Windows which must appear in your Windows profile folder in C:\Users\username.  Various programs (and Windows itself), create files and folders in AppData.  You don't want to remove it.

    However, you can hide it again.  In the profile folder where you see AppData, click Tools > folders and select the view tab.  Under "hidden files and folders", click the box marked 'do not show hidden files, folders or drives', and then click OK.  You should see is no longer at that point of AppData.

  • Adding library folder returns an error ""this network location cannot be included because it is not indexed.

    I'm trying to share my MUSIC on my Windows Home Server (WHS) folder in my music library.  Here's how my MUSIC folder is organized:

    MUSIC
    -> Songs1
    -> Songs2
    -> Songs3
    -> Chansons4
    -> Chansons5

    Quite simply structure, so thought that this should not be a problem. If I add the entire folder to the library only 1/3 of my songs are listed. In trying to understand what is happening, I found that only 2 to 5 subfolders under the MUSIC are included (songs.1 and chansons5).

    Again, I deleted the folder "MUSIC" from the library and then add each indivually subfolder. What I found is I might add 2 subfolders (songs.1 and chansons5), but adding that the 3 other subfolders returns an error message, "" the network location cannot be included because it is not indexed".  If I add a new folder under MUSIC I can't add it to the library either.

    I think it should have some type of security or user problem, but can't think of what it would be, since some of the subfolders under the MUSIC can be recognized, while others, including the new folders cannot be added. Someone at - it suggestions?

    I would add that I have no problem with adding my video or picture file to my WHS library.

    Problem has been solved - thought I would post an update if someone of another encounter this type of behavior.

    By continuing to try to understand why only the music files on my server would not be updated I fell into my "homegroup". I checked the settings and noticed that 'MUSIC' was not checked in the "Shared libraries and printers' (don't know why or how). I then checked the box and now I can move my files on the server and the path is updated in the library.

  • folder in Start menu shortcut

    In Windows 8, is it possible to create a shortuct to a file as a pdf, doc or xls file on the start page. I see how to create a folder. But needing a shortciut for frequently used files.

    Thank you

    I had the question too, so after playing with it, I found that it could be done, but it's a pain.  Here's what I had to do:

    1. Go to start\program %AppData%\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start
    2. Create a shortcut to your file here.
    3. Go to your screen Star and pull up "all apps".
    4. You should see your shortcut somewhere in the area of "Apps".  Just Pin to start.
  • Dreamweaver cs6 added a folder of my ways by using a template models

    I'm having a problem. I use templates on all of my sites, but I did something on this one and screwed up I think. The index page does not use a template and the links menu correctly to other pages... but all other pages use the same exact menu, but does not link properly. Because these pages use templates for some reason any all links have the "templates" folder in their... If I look at the code for the model, it is not... but if I look at the code on the pages of the "templates" folder has been added so that they are not working...

    You can see at www.drawingaway.com. If you access any index.html page, it works fine. But if you try to access any page of another page... it does not work. Does anyone know how to get rid of the folder "templates" in the links of the code?

  • Adding a folder zipped to the project, not sure of the process.

    DVDs and I wanted to add a folder zipped containing the content in mpeg2 format so that users were able to enter the folder, unzip it and keep a digital copy of the video/pictures.  Unfortunately, once again done with transcoding/writing, he of the disk write-protected.  I'm new in yet, and I'm not sure of the process more efficient, so I was wondering if I could:

    (1) add the folder to the procedure, so once the writing has been done there is the VIDEO_TS folder and the zipped folder "Digital Content".

    (2) change an option that would not immediately hand writing and eject the disk, so when transcoding and writing was done, I could add the folder and then finalize the disc.

    (3) add the folder on the disk before you start construction again, and once the build completed two files would be there.

    Thanks in advance for the help!

    What you're looking for is the content of DVD ROM and simply navigate to the location of this folder on your HARD drive, before to burn to disc.

    Good luck

    You can add a setValue and use the getDocAttribute method to get some attributes on the document variable that contains the file that has been abandoned.

    For example:

    /process_data/@tmpString = getDocAttribute (/process_data/ @docXML, "basename")
