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/

  • 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.

  • How to save an email on a folder?

    I get an email giving details of a new Member and I want to save 'new Member' in my folder "tennis club". How can I do?

    Where is your folder "tennis club"? In Thunderbird, or anywhere else in your computer?

    Either way, you can just drag - move the message in your folder "tennis club". But if it is outside of Thunderbird, it will save as eml file and you should not use Thunderbird to open and read it.

    So another approach is to use "file |" ' Save as ' in Thunderbird, tell him where to save the message, with whom and in what format. HTML can be useful for you.

    And you could just select the text of the message, copy it and paste it into a new text in Notepad, Wordpad or similar document that you save in your folder "tennis club".

  • 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 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.

    Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the Add-ons is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Modules > themes).

    • Makes no changes on the start safe mode window.

    See:

  • 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.
