Bookmarks into folders disappeared?

Alright. So I've had this problem for a little while now. xD and its starting to get kind of annoying. I have most of my favorites sorted in folders and others for easy access, when I need to look for some.

For one reason or another, two weeks ago. They have all exhausted. OO as... The files are there, but they are empty. But when I open the bookmarks using CTRL-B, they are really there, inside their records. Unchanged.

Now, I don't like using the sidebar bookmarks bar. So, I'm curious... How can I fix?
In addition, right at that time, I downloaded and installed BoostSpeed 6. To help clean up a ton of junk on my computer. But I think that it is somehow related to problems with my favorites in general. @_@

SOLUTION:

The problem:

Your bookmarks are damaged somewhere with a bookmark (s) that has no value 'location' (url) and all new bookmarks below than this bad bookmark will not be displayed in the Menu "Bookmarks" standard, but they have in fact always will appear in the window "show all bookmarks".

Difficulty:

(0) in "show all bookmarks", use the scroll bar to find all bookmarks when a url value 'rent' is obviously missing. For each folder, find you one, make sure that you move all over this bad bookmark bookmarks, so that this bad bookmark is changed (at the bottom) in this folder. Do this for all files.

(1) export your bookmarks (keep it) somewhere on your hard drive. "Show all bookmarks"-> "Import and backup"-> "export bookmarks as HTML."

(2) now delete us bookmarks "places.sqlite" Bank and force Firefox to do a new "places.sqlite" which is not damaged.

(3) in Firefox click 'Help'-> "Troubleshooting Information"-> "View file" button (under the title "Basic application", next to the label "Profile folder"). This will open a new file Explorer window. Keep it open.

(4) now close Firefox.

(5) in the new folder Explorer window menu open, delete "places.sqlite" file and also delete all the files in the folder "bookmarkbackups".

(6) now open Firefox back up.

(7) Finally, "import" bookmark that you saved in step (1) to your hard disk. "Show all bookmarks"-> "Import and backup"-> "import bookmarks html."

(8) wait for about 3 to 5 minutes for Firefox to "recreate" the structure of all the files in bookmarks and (mostly) all bookmark folders you may have created to organize your personal bookmarks (there are a lot of files and folders for Firefox re-create). It may seem like Firefox is no not another thing that set the cursor outside of Firefox and you will probably see the hourglass or image of spinning indicating the work is done. In five minutes, all bookmarks should work.

  • My Favorites keep randomly in endangered and will also disappear whenever I try to organize them into folders. How can I fix?

    I use Firefox 3.6.20 on a Macbook. Almost every bookmark I have trying to save will disappear immediately after making do. Also, when I am trying to organize my bookmarks into folders, so often do the bookmarks disappear, rather than place them in the selected folder. The action of the applicant in a folder will be either multiply the bookmark in three bookmarks, or make it go away completely. How can I fix?

    The menu displays in the Bookmark Manager (Bookmarks > show all bookmarks) is to display bookmarks in different sort orders (where the name of views) and does not sort the bookmarks permanently.

    In Firefox, the ability to sort the bookmarks is available only for files and not for the individual bookmarks.

    More simple sort by name is to do it in the left pane of the Bookmark Manager (Bookmarks > show all bookmarks) and right click on the folder you want to sort.

  • Is there a way to automatically fill bookmarks and folders of bookmarks in the toolbar and menu for a consistent view?

    The separate group of bookmarks in Firefox in the toolbar, Menu and does not sort, I always found it cumbersome to use and manage. The search for bookmarks often means I have to open each one to find a specific bookmark. I am aware of the show all bookmarks in bookmarks option > drop-down Menu (but isn't in the bookmarks bar). I know how to copy the bookmarks and folders etc. but it is hard to do every time I have bookmark. And if I add a new bookmark folder and want a consistent view, I need to copy this folder in the Menu or eitherToolbar and copy the new bookmarks in the toolbar or the Menu as well.

    Is there an add-on or option or other alterative that exists to provide that kind of capability?

    If not, maybe an adding future functionality to Firefox to eventually change the vision presented in the bookmarks bar and Bookmarks Menu so that they match and can be activated by a new option of FireFox "change the bookmark view show merged Bookmarks Toolbar + Bookmarks Menu bookmarks and folders of bookmarks in the toolbar and menu.

    Thank you very much!

    After a few edits, I found a way to accomplish what I want, and fortunately, it can be done in the application of Firefox without needing an add-on.

    I simply copy the bookmarks unordered top-level in the top-level bookmarks toolbar and the bookmarks Menu of top-level. This, combined with the convention to add all new bookmarks in the folders under Unsorted Bookmarks or Unsorted Bookmarks, provides the unified content bookmark I want across all views bookmark 3 (Unsorted, Menu, Toolbar).

    From the library page (grown by selecting from the menu of Firefox bookmarks bar > show all bookmarks), if I select Unsorted Bookmarks, copy and paste into the bookmarks toolbar and paste in the Menu bookmarks, this is what I want. I actually created a symbolic/reference/shortcut link to Unsorted Bookmarks the other two favorite places can be found.

    With Unsorted Bookmarks in the bookmarks toolbars and bookmarks Menu, any add/remove bookmarks or add/delete records or restructuring of the bookmarks under Unsorted Bookmarks directory tree is also immediately reflected in all 3 of the possible locations of bookmark (Unsorted, toolbar, Menu).

    The design and implementation of bookmarks supports this simple solution, so Bravo for designers and coders for built-in extensibility / generality which support this approach. And thanks for the posters for giving me some background and history on the bookmarks in Firefox, motivation me digging to find this solution which is quite simple and elegant.

    Thank you!

  • Cannot set new bookmarks; Some have disappeared; saved but rebuilt; lost a lot more. Help!

    Problem has grown gradually over a period of 2-3 days. First of all, some favorites have disappeared from the toolbar. At the same time, 'Bookmark this Page' has stopped working, and cleared from the list "recently set bookmark". When I followed the recommended procedure Firefox for backup and restore, I repeatedly had the message that Firefox could not process the restoration. Then 3/4ths my bookmark folders disappeared. This happened it try with different dates backup. Now, I find that a number of other people have similar problems. Like some of them, my problem may have begun during a restart because of a deadlock in another program. Mozilla's Support system seems far too complicated, time-consuming and circular, and talking to a person live doesn't seem to be an option. If this is not corrected within the next 24 hours I'm trying other browsers, after use Firefox almost exclusively for several years.

    I see that you have the extension of Maintenance of places. Using this fact no difference to your ability to add bookmarks, or stop losses?

    To test the integrity of your backup files of bookmark, I will suggest you try to restore one or two of them to a new profile.

    Since I'm a Windows user, I apologize in advance if this answer is not entirely applicable to your system.

    Bookmark backups in a convenient location

    Open the settings folder (AKA Firefox profile) current Firefox help

    • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > troubleshooting information
    • (menu bar) Help > troubleshooting information
    • type or paste everything: in the address bar and press enter/return

    In the first table of the page, click on the button 'show in Finder '. This should start a new Finder window. Then, double-click the folder bookmarkbackups . Copy some of your recent backups on the desktop or another location.

    Create a new Firefox profile

    Leave Firefox runs. Start up in the Profile Manager using the method in this article: use the Profile Manager to create and delete profiles Firefox.

    Notes:

    • Do not delete anything here!
    • Any time you want to switch profiles, leave Firefox and return to this dialog box.

    Click on the button create a profile, give it a name like Test0426 and skip the option to change the location of the folder. Select the new profile from the dialog box, and then start Firefox.

    Test bookmark backups

    Firefox in the new profile should look like a new installation of the plant. You can use the steps in this article to test one or more of the files you copied to your desktop (or another location): restoration of the bookmarks from a backup or move them to another computer (use the option of choosing a file instead of one of the dated options).

    Firefox in the new profile read and restore the backup?

    Return to your Normal profile

    Exit Firefox and look at this article: use the Profile Manager to create and delete profiles Firefox.

    When you return to the Profile Manager, you might be tempted to use the button Delete a profile on Test0426. It's a little too easy to accidentally delete your 'real' profile, so I recommend you to resist the temptation. If you don't want to clean up later, I suggest to make a backup of all your profiles first in case something go wrong.

  • How can I retrieve the bookmarks and folders that were lost when Firefox updated?

    This morning, there was a message that firefox should be updated. Since I did not like (or use) Google Chrome or IE, I unchecked the options as part of the update. Once the update is complete, all my favorites and folders disappeared. Is there a way to retrieve either the lack of points OR restore/roll to the firefox browser that I was already using?

    Hi, first of all open the bookmarks > show all bookmarks > import and backup > restore and see if you have a backup there.

    If this isn't the case, please see - profiles - where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user dataand recovery of data from an old profile.

    If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.

  • my folders disappeared when 10.6.8 OS10.11.3. In any case, to get this stuff back in folders rather than a long list of files?

    My folders disappeared when 10.6.8 OS10.11.3. In any case, to get this stuff back in folders rather than a long list of files?

    Where they disappeared?

    Some changes that may be what you watch:

    • All of my files - this is the search folder that searches all your files in your home and presents them in one place. They were not moved, they are displayed just like they are.
    • Framed by default - the sidebar returns the values by default for all folders that you placed there will need to be added again.

    Your files are stored inside your folder into subfolders such as Documents, movies, pictures, etc. They are all should still be there. You can add one of these folders to the sidebar by dragging them there, or you can use the tab of the sidebar in the Finder preferences.

    You can access your file in the Finder with cmd-shift-h (menu go).

  • I want to drag contacts into folders to organize them rather than color coded categories.

    I want to drag the contacts, while in the address book, in folders to organize them rather than color coded categories. Example, I have a folder called "Active CUSTOMERS" and I want to move to a folder titled "Past CLIENTS".

    Also, I drag messages into folders that works well, but when I try to move all of a folder of messages under a different title, I often put in place the new folder and copy and paste all the messages. It's tedious.

    I can't believe there are not many people in sales who want to put in place their clients in different folders. It would really clean up your address book so you don't always go through thousands of email addresses. I know that I can sort the color-coded categories, but this is slow compared to drag the contact into a folder.

    Please feel free to send me suggestions. My contacts duplicated and screwed up in Windows Live and now I need to sort out about 5 000 contacts - I already managed to get rid of exact duplicates but there will still be a lot of work. [email protected]

    Create a new address books and move contacts in them.

    In the address book window, select file-new-address book
    Then, drag and drop contacts from existing books in the new.

  • Delete all the images and Photos into folders, I create

    OK, I can't leave the Photos to manage my pictures for anything other than editing.  I have a backup hard drive which has thousands of photos I worked tirelessly to organize into folders that make sense to ME (as well as for my wife).  Because of my organization, with any windows machine, it's easy for me to import them from my iPhone in a folder on the desktop, then the name or the tag and move these photos on this windows computer records, as well as on this hard drive.  It is a breeze to find an image or an object with a lot of different pictures, I'm the one who ranked.  It is a breeze to do a mass deletion, or a mass move if I decide to change the category of several images.  However, with Photos, just try to move pushes to hell.  Not to mention the fact that IF someone were to have access to my Mac without my permission, if they wanted to look at my pictures and videos on all of them would be in pictures to facilitate navigation.  There are a lot of photo work that I don't want anyone other than myself, my wife and occasionally a customer that the photos are to have access to the as they may contain confidential information or even to design prototypes.  WHY can't Apple let me manage my own photos?  I'm not griping about photo editing features, I find them to be good for the most part.  I want to just connect my iPhone and copy all the pictures out of it in my own folder structure and remove them from the phone.  If I need to change the one I can still do from the phone or Photos if Photos then would allow me to remove this image pictures and put it back in my files.  Please tell me that someone else out there has a similar desire and figured out how to do this...

    WHY can't Apple let me manage my own photos?

    No problem just don't do the - Photos is completely optional

    Apple provides Photos for people who want a modern photo management with workflows without loss with database capabilities and the Image Capture (or do the PC way and use the finder) and listen to samples for those who don't want an up-to-date Digital Asset Manager like pictures and prefer to handle the files rather than photos - use either or any third-party solution you like best

    But you can't do what you want with Photos - you must use the correct software for your personal desires and is not pictures
