Difficult access to bookmarks Firefox 7 Mac OS 10.5.8

I've just updated to Firefox 7 3.6.15 (I'm on Mac OS 10.5.8 on a MacBook Pro).

I have a long list of bookmarks, both individually and nested in folders or subfolders. 3.6.15 I have had no problem scroll down to access them. Now, however, there often several attempts to stop at the level of the folder I want - often the cursor stops at another folder and will not pass in front of her. The only way I can access the file I want is to go back to the top and try again.

There was a similar ad in June 2011 (menu now awkward bookmarks cascading), but this problem is in rather than F7.0 F5.0. A bug of Mac was published last January, but it was for F4.0 beta, which suggests that the problem was related to 64-bit, Mac and suggesting that shortening bookmark titles might help. I tried, but it doesn't seem to work.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Hi mal9.

I'm also using Mac 10.5.8 with 7 FF.
I had the same problem, incredibly annoying, as you describe.

I just follow the advice of cor - el - and it certainly works.

I had 1 bookmark name very long on my list of menu "Menu bookmarks"
(I have here about 80 Favorites + 6 folders with hundreds of bookmarks inside)
I've shortened - problem is now gone.

You don't need to shorten all bookmarks in folders.
Only the links in the main menu

  • I have an iPad and you'd like to raise my list of bookmarks of Firefox for MAC to my iPad Safari.app; is it possible automatically?

    I have a MacBook Pro under OS X 10.5.7 and an iPad running iOS 6.1.3 2.
    On MAC, I have Firefox for MAC v 19.0.2 and Safari 6.0.3
    The iPad, I have only Safari for iPad. I always use Firefox as my browser for the MacBook, but there is no Firefox app for the iPad.

    My Safari bookmarks automatically updated the MacBook to the iPad, but not Firefox for iPad. Is it possible for the auto update from Firefox instead of Safari to the Safari.app iPad? If not, is there an easy way on the MacBook to hold Safari bookmarks up-to-date with bookmarks in Firefox, so that the iPad share my Firefox bookmarks?

    If this is not possible now, you count that is possible for MAC users who also have an iPad?

  • I just downloaded Firefox for Mac 3.6.15 and impossible to import my favorites of the Navigator 9.0.0.5.

    I work on a Mac running OS x version 10.4.11 onMac. I think not that I am following the correct procedure - I went to the Manager of bookmarks Firefox, followed the way import HTML from / to a file HTML, then find the file "bookmarks.html" inside my users folder browser. But I click on open, the window closes and nothing happens.

    You can try to open this file bookmarks.html in Firefox via file > open a file to see if it has content.

    Bookmarks imported via the bookmark manager should appear at the end of the file Menu bookmarks.

  • When I run firefox v42 mac, the Preferences tab load as well

    When I run Firefox version Mac 42 on Mountain Lion, my homepage loads perfectly, but another 'Préférences' tab always seems to load as well. How can I stop this other tab from loading? Thank you, Ken.

    Hi Ken, one of the possible reasons are if the preferences page has been added as a second 'Home tab' in which case it will be displayed in each new window (Cmd + n) and every time that you click the Home button.

    To verify that you can use the preferences, the general Board, the section to start page, as described in this article: start-up, homepage, tabs and download settings.

    In the area of the Home Page, look for a vertical bar separating two addresses of character. A simple example with short URLS:

    https://www.mozilla.org/|about:preferences
    

    The bar certainly can be hard to spot with long URLs, but when you find it, delete everything to the right of the bar, then the bar itself (I suggest to remove the last bar so things don't accidentally get it together).

  • Firefox for Mac does not recognize a valid SSL certificate

    Firefox for Mac does not recognize the SSL certificate that is valid for this site, I got: https://www.georgeglazer.com. It gives a warning "not reliable." However, the Firefox for Windows does not give a warning. This happens even if I clear the cache and it happens in the Mavericks and OS of Yosemite. The certificate is up-to-date and with Comodo. Firefox for Mac is now the only browser producing these errors (v. 39, put updated) - Internet Explorer, Safari and Chrome are not. Our hosting provider has said it's probably a browser issue, perhaps having to do with intermediate certificates in Firefox being obsolete. I really hope you'll solve the problem, as it's annoying for us when we're going to do right by our customers and pay for the SSL certificate. I have attached a picture of the warning and the other from what you see on a PC: a pop-up that says it is a verified SSL certificate and gives details about the issuer, the period of validity, etc.

    COMODO should you sent a link to download the file 'bundle' containing the intermediate certificates. Who needs to go in the same directory as the certificate of your site. If you are using a control panel, your host can probably help with this process. And if you bought through them, shame on them for not taking care of this for you already!

  • Uncloseable pop-up windows in firefox for mac

    Hello

    Some Web sites will open the pop-up windows, even if I have a pop-up blocker enabled.

    The problem with these pop-up windows, it is that they have the option close as for other windows of Firefox for Mac.

    This results in the ToolTip remains open and the only way I can get rid of it is to stop completely from Firefox.

    Any help will be appreciated.

    Hello

    Maybe you could try the keyboard shortcut command + W (close the current tab) or command + SHIFT + W (close the current window) when the pop-up window appears in the foreground.

  • Firefox for Mac (latest version)

    Yesterday I installed the latest download of Firefox for Mac.
    It seems that I can't visit a Web site, because I always get the message that the certificate is issued by an unknown authority.
    I spent most of the day, find a solution and am fed up now with Ff I found several help pages, which suggests to remove cert8.db Ff is closed, reset Ff as well as several other solutions. I tried everything but nothing worked. No Web page has a valid certificate according to Ff.
    I know well with Ff I have used for years on Windows, Linux, and Android and never had problems of this kind.
    I'm on Osx 10.10.3 (released yesterday, April 9, 2015, with the last Ff available for Mac.
    (27.0.1)
    After spending a whole day to useless troubleshooting only one question remains: Ff is for Mac is not compatible with the new Osx 10.10.3?
    Thank you.

  • Is it possible that the CLOSE button Firefox on MAC OS to run as native applications... for example Safari?

    Is it possible that it works like Safari and other applications? Instead of him going out and losing all saved information outputs/short in the background like Safari and restores correctly?

    If this isn't the case, is there a reason that it is this way, unlike other MAC applications?

    Thank you.

    Note that Firefox on Mac is supposed to turn to a native style in Firefox 24 (10.7 and more I think).

    I am a new hand with Windows 8 and who need instructions step-by-step on how to migrate bookmarks Firefox in Windows XP to Windows 8.

  • Is there a limit to how many folders of bookmarks Firefox can import?

    I just installed Firefox 14 and tried to import my favorites to Internet Explorer 8. I have 236 files in Internet Explorer, but only 160 imported to Firefox. Is there a limit to how many folders of bookmarks Firefox can transfer? Just to be clear, I'm not talking to real Favorites, I 12 487, but rather the Bookmarks folders.

    No, but there are sometimes problems with the import of favorites of IE directly.

    If you have problems with importing IE bookmarks in Firefox, then export favorites in Internet Explorer to a HTML file and import this file in the Firefox Bookmarks Manager.

    Like that you also preserve any sort you did in Internet Explorer with favorites.

    • Export Favorites in Internet Explorer to a file (bookmarks.html) HTML: file > import and export
    • Import the HTML file in Firefox: bookmarks > show all bookmarks > import and backup > import HTML: from a file

    See "Import from another browser" and "import from file":
