    Hello there, irisapple.

    Looks like you are having problems with your bookmarks and notes synchronization on multiple iOS devices. The following Knowledge Base article provides a few major steps for troubleshooting of bookmarks:

    Get help using bookmarks iCloud and playlist

    Before you start

    • Check the system status page to see if there are known issues related to bookmarks from iCloud, since your device might not be the cause of your problem.
    • Make sure that your settings of date and time on your device are correct.  You can easily correct problems caused by an incorrect date and time settings by entering the right information.
    • Make sure that you don't lose important information in making copies of your bookmarks.
    • If your bookmarks are not in the same order on all of your devices, check to see how many bookmarks is in the folder. If the folder contains more than 500 Favorites, the order of bookmarks may not be the same on all devices.

    OK good people going here.
    I have been using foxmarks/xmarks for more than 3 years. Now after FF upgrade 6.0 at work, I thought it would be a good idea to start using sync FF. So I created a FF account at work and synchronized with a FF server somewhere and they gave me a key of synchronization.

    So, when I came home, I though I'll add my laptop and my iMac to sync FF, but to my surprise, the instructions are that I should add a device on FF where I created my account, which is at work!

    That is why y at - there a way around this, or I have to call my wife to work and do it on the phone?

  • PDF bookmarks are not correctly indented

    I have one small unstructured FrameMaker document 2015. When I generate a PDF file, the bookmarks are not indented correctly.

    The document includes sections in the following order:

    Level 1

    Level 5

    Level 5

    Level 4

    Level 5

    Level 5

    My bookmark PDF settings are:

    Level 1

    . Level 2

    .. Level 4

    ... Level 5

    When I generate a PDF, I get the following:

    Level 1

    Level 2

    Level 5

    Level 5

    Level 4

    Level 5

    Level 5

    It is relatively bet back, dealing with level 4 as another level 5 and then further indenting of level 5s that are level 4.

    Someone at - he already seen this before? Any suggestions for fixing (apart from changing the order of the items)?

    It is a design problem. You will need to manually adjust the PDF using Acrobat bookmarks or come with different paratags and levels not to break implicit structure. Have a critical look at the semantic meaning of the paratags you use where there may be alternatives to level 5 to the location that you have placed the. Also what happened to level 3 and how that will work in bookmarks when it gets used somewhere in your documentation?

  • View them all bookmarks does not display the favorite button.

    It is presentation all off bookmarks the Bookmarks button so no way back to the top because I can't go to the library window.

    This and other things are now a little clumsy.

    • There is a keyboard shortcut in Windows, it is Ctrl + Shift + B

    • The option is still on the drop-down list of bookmarks but now at the bottom of the list (Ctrl + Shift + O) icon.

    The previous tabs is another potentially buried option.

    I don't know if the changes are reversible, or the reasoning for them. No doubt they options are not often used.

  • Cannot use Sync to transfer them to my new laptop

    I'm trying to transfer my Firefox on my new laptop computer info. By attempting to use Sync to try to accomplish, I ran into the following sequence of problems:

    1. I went to set up sync in the drop of Firefox and received a set of three, four characters codes to enter in my laptop Firefox.
    2. I went to the Options in my laptop computer and clicked on Sync there.
    3. I clicked on the pair a device, entered my office codes and clicked OK.
    4. on the account details screen, I have entered my email address (I got no problem for more than 10 years) and was informed that the address was already in use. I assumed that this meant that I didn't actually have a sync account established.
    5. I went back to the previous screen, this time by clicking on I have an account, and then click OK.
    6. on the login screen I entered my account email address (since I'm not aware of any other account name or number to use) and that of the passwords that I sometimes used with this address.
    7. any password I entered (of those that I can remember), the next button remains greyed out, since there is no recovery key to enter.
    8. I have returned to my desktop and went to Sync under Options. However, despite what is said in the window of the connection on the laptop, there is no button or link to manage my account or my recovery key that appears in the window on my desktop. All I get is the same create a new account or I have an account options.
    9. I am not aware of ever created an account of synchronization, and even fewer have received and registered a recovery key. However, to verify that I don't actually have an account, I used Firefox to change my password, that allowed me to do so without incident. I take this as a confirmation that I don't actually have a sync account. In any case, I can't create a new account on my existing email address or access to any account that I have because I don't have a recovery key. And I have no way to identify the recovery key.

    So I'm at a loss on how to proceed from here. I usually found things setting in Firefox would we apply and simple. But it's becoming one of the most frustrating experiences I've had with computers. I tried to do this job more than a dozen times today, using different stages or levels of steps (e.g. from the laptop rather that the office, from the Options rather than configuring the synchronization menu drop-down).

    Can anyone help to understand what goes wrong, so I can get this set up?

    Have you ever set up sync on this computer?

    If you want to reset the sync data and download data synchronization server, you need to reset the key to sync or delete the account and start from scratch.

  • Bookmarks will not save. I tried all the solutions published to date, is there an add on?

    I noticed in the last few months that would save a number of bookmarks in the toolbar or bookmarks menu. When I closed firefox and then returned to his bookmarks were not there. It's as if firefox is blocked at a certain point in time. I use sandboxie but thought it would be that. So I tried to bookmark in the sandbox with sand and it's the same thing that the bookmarks are not saved. I tried to use the safe mode and save something in a menu of bookmark, that has not been successful. I tried different methods with the program on my computer I'm lost. I reinstalled it.

    Is this one of the add-on that is causing the problem?

    These are the Add-ons that I have.
    Better privacy 1.67
    certificate patrol 2.0.14
    collusion 0.14
    conspiracy 0.3.0

    One possible cause is a problem with the places.sqlite file that stores the bookmarks and history.

  • I am unable to change the tab order or order of bookmark in FF 8.0.1.

    Recently, I discovered that I could not change the order of the tabs after I had opened to them. Also, I can not change the order of bookmarks or their records (it started at the same time, so I think that there is a related issue). It started less than a week ago.

    This problem may be caused by the Torbutton extension

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