Cannot save a bookmark to NEW folder - FF wants me to rename the EXISTING parent folder

I can't save a bookmark in a new folder. This is the way that I take from the main menu:
Bookmarks | Bookmark this Page
Click on the drop down arrow to the right of the folder
Select Choose
Navigate to the folder parent in which I would like a new subfolder
Click new folder
Then, rather than create a new folder, as it has always done in the past, it will highlight the folder parent for editing. If I type a new folder name, the parent folder is replaced by the new name. A new subfolder is created with the name of the new folder.

Things, I already tried that does * not * solve the problem:
-Remove and then restore bookmarks from a file backup saved favorites.
-Execution of the add-on "housekeeping."
-Rebuild the database of "places".

I have not yet reset Firefox or created a new profile but may try it if you gurus think it would help.

I use FF 32.0.2 on Win XP SP3.
I have hundreds and hundreds of bookmarks, but what I've read, there is no maximum size limit.

Thank you in advance!

I thought about it! I kept scratching my head... whenever I tried to update, move or save a new bookmark, it moved very, very slowly. Sometimes, if I waited long enough, he would perform the action I wanted. But if I tried to push it along, it would have hard work (as described in my first post above). While it does take so long to manipulate and save the bookmarks file? It dawned on me... I recently set up sync with my mobile phone. So whenever I was saving a bookmark, Favorites file was also updated in Google sync account. Work with bookmarks has slowed down for an analysis! And it has destroyed my bookmarks file. No thanks, I can do without it. I disconnected Sync and immediately, my bookmarks and bookmark behavior are back to normal! Yay!

Of course, I don't have my synchronized Favorites in Firefox on my cell phone, no more, but I can live without this until the process is improved.

  • How save you bookmarks in a folder with the keyboard?

    Since getting used to better organize my favorites, I have folders of bookmarks that are up to three levels deep.

    How do I save a bookmark to a specific folder without having to use the mouse or click "choose...". » ?

    It would be nice if there was a way to type just, with suggestions of future record.
    That is, I would be able to hit Ctrl + D, type the name, press tab and type Classes\303\HW to have bookmark to this folder. Right now I can only favorite for files recently used with the keyboard.

    I know that this can be done with the mouse, but I'm looking for a way fast with the keyboard, possible with a plugin of some sort.

    The closest I can you would:

    Ctrl+d, Tab, Tab, spacebar
    

    At this point you can use wildcards to accelerate up to specific files, arrow on the right to open, etc. Maybe:

    cl, right, 30, right, h
    

    At this time, with the correct destination folder selected, you need twice Tab or SHIFT + Tab twice before Enter will present the dialog box. Not pretty.

    Maybe there's an add-on which makes the process easy. Over the years, there are many related extensions, but I have not tried (or heard of) those that seem relevant to your request. I think it is worth looking at the site of modules in the Favorites category.

  • When I save a bookmark in a folder, it does not appear in the folder, only in bookmarks of the latter.

    When I bookmark on a page and save it in a folder of bookmarks, the bookmark not be saved in this folder located in the bookmarks bar. The bookmark page doesn't appear under recently marked with a bookmark.

    The problem occurs because the folders displayed in the bookmarks bar do not match records that appear in the bookmarks in the menu bar. They apparently are not synchronized.

    "Display" means when Firefox is up on the screen on the lower edge of the toolbar, the records used to show this place.

    No, I don't mean IE Favorites. I try not to use IE if possible.

  • Have administrator rights, but cannot save a file in a folder

    If I'm the administrator, why my computer told me that I need administrative rights in order to save a file in a folder?

    C: \ program File (x 86).  There is no one else on this computer; It's my phone.

    Is not serious if there is no one else physically on your system, Windows is still a multi-user operating system.  You can be * a * administrator, but it is unlikely that you are * the * administrator and even if you were, C:\Program Files (x 86)-is a protected system directory (the directory Program Files 32-bit on your system to Windows 7 64-bit.)

    If the files that you try to save files that you deploy, keep them in better places (like your documents).  If you try to copy a program/application directory here because it is logical that she's here - grant administrative rights to move things in place on the single basis.

  • How can you save a bookmark in a folder in one step?

    I use Firefox for years and just upgraded to the latest version. I already have a bunch of folders of bookmarks created.

    My first problem was when I chose 'Choose' to scroll through my folders and choose which one I want to save the page to, it took me rather to the unsorted bookmarks folder. The only other options in this window were Bookmarks Toolbar and Menu bookmarks, and any of the three to take me to a list of my bookmark folders when I click on them.

    After playing with him, now it only gives me even this choice when I click the icon in the bookmarks toolbar, it just saves the page to Favorites not sorted automatically.

    I know that I can go and organize bookmarks after the fact, but it seems a bit ridiculous to have first save it to a location of reserved space. I have not found this dealt with in the FAQ of bookmarks, so I hope someone can ' splain to me how to solve this problem.

    BTW, I'm running Firefox on Windows XP, but have the same problem on a PC running Windows 8.

    Hello

    I bought a Tablet WT8-B-102, and when I go to the NMWG page to save it and write s/n, it says that it cannot find the serial number.

    Why?

    Hmm are you sure that you have inserted a good serial number?
    Sometimes people mix - up some letters and numbers that is to say, O and 0 (zero)

  • Cannot save pdf after deleting or adding pages? (any changes to the folder)

    Hi all

    I just joined this forum community.

    (I use Windows 7 Pro 64 - bit os and Adobe Acrobat Pro XI with all updates).

    I have constant problems when I try to save my file. I do nothing else than the combination of multiple pages into a single pdf file or I'm a page (s) remove the file. When it comes time to save the file, I get a dialog box saying that be the file "cannot be saved because it is protected either right or it is used by another user." It's happening with older files and created files.

    The only work around I have found is, after making all my changes, I then shut all my windows folders then the quick save will work. Any other suggestions to reolve this or an explanation would be greatly appreciated.

    I thank you,

  • How to save a bookmark or a folder on my desktop

    With my old IE browser, I could right click on any site and save to my desktop. How does this with Firefox?

    To create a shortcut on the desktop, you can drag-and - drop the icon "site identity" (it's a globe or a padlock that appears on the left of the URL in the address bar).

    If it's inconvenient (for example, if you always use Firefox maximized), there could be an extension that allows you to create the shortcut in Firefox. If you want to find one, you can start here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/

  • HP Photosmart C4599 all-in-one: new router so want to put in the SSID code on printer. No screen on the printer to do. How can I do?

    Hello

    I want to print wireless.  I recently changed my router to a 4G one and a new internet provider.   I need to enter the SSID of the router to the printer code so that it can join the wireless network and connect to my MacBook Pro.  Initially when I bought the printer, I was able to connect wireless using a provided HP CD - this does not currently work with Mac OS X 10 El Capitan, even if I have loaded down the HP update drivers.  The printer does not have a screen to change the SSID directly so I guess I have to change sort through my Apple laptop.  I you'd be grateful if someone could help me

    Clonfert

    Greetings @Clonfert,

    Thank you access the Forums from HP Support for extra support! I see that you want to configure the printer on the new wireless network. I will do my best to help you with this problem.

    I have provided a few steps to set up the printer via an ad-hoc connection and then convert it into infrastructure. (your network) Since there is no HP software to run the wireless installation.

    Click the airport near the upper right corner on a Mac.

    Click on the HP printer in the list.

    It takes about 3 minutes to connect.

    Once you get a solid blue light on the printer, it is successfully connected.

    You will not be connected to your network for a bit while we set up the printer on the network.

    Print the configuration page to get the printer IPv4 address.

    Open your web browser, type the IPv4 address for the printer (Safari).

    This will load the Web built-in to the printer server.

    We can now configure the printer on the wireless network.

    Click on the networking, on the left side, click on Wireless, fill out your information for the network. (The network name SSID, set it to the infrastructure, enter your password and the encryption type)

    Apply the settings.

    Now back to the airport closest to the top right corner on a Mac and select the name of your network.

    Just add the network printer on Mac now.

    Click on the Apple.

    Click on System Preferences, click Print and scan icon, then click on the + sign, then select the printer from the list, click Add. (you may need to click the drop-down list to select the printer name to add it in)

    Test the printer.

    If this helps you to find a solution, please click on the button "accept as a Solution. If you wish, to say thank you for my effort to help, click on the 'Thumbs Up' to give me a Kudos. Please let me know the results. Good day!
