What is the best way to switch between the two sets of bookmarks, say 'work' and 'private '?

I want to use for sets of bookmarks, so that when I'm not working, I'm not distracted by my favorites not work and vice versa. For the last two months, I use two user accounts to achieve, but it's kinda a PITA. Links from other applications like Thunderbird mail are opened in the default profile. In other words, when I'm not at work and I click on a link in an e-mail, a new window opens with the work of my Firefox profile.

All I need is a thing or an extension to switch quickly sets bookmark. Or a way to switch profiles without having to open a new Firefox window. Any ideas?

You can not get Firefox works as you explain that you want. The default profile cannot be changed on the fly for the profile you are currently using. This message "Firefox is already running... "returns to cause you or 'something' trying to open a profile 2 (or later), unless -no-remote command has been used to open the additional profile. And -no-remote will not work to open the default profile without causing problems with the way Windows works with "call" the default browser.

In response to your last statement - "to separate my work and private stuff I just need to change the content of my bookmarks bar, so I was hoping there was a trick to keep groups of favourites."

This extension will allow you to change the Bookmarks Toolbar folder while you use Firefox.
https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/addon/set-as-bookmarks-toolbar-folde/
I just installed this extension and check that it still works in 35 of Firefox.
There is a context menu item for 'Set as Bookmarks Toolbar Folder' ' which appears when the Menu Bookmarks menu Bar drop-down is used (not in the library window or the bookmarks bar). This menu item is displayed when you right-click a folder in the folder Menu bookmarks. It does not appear with the folder "Personal bar" or the "Unsorted Bookmarks" - only a folder in the Menu "Favorites".
Should be 'resolved' eager to have two different settings for the bookmarks toolbar, but the profile default 'thing' is always a problem for what you are trying to accomplish. I don't 'see a fix' for that - without resorting to a 2nd user account window, which is what I thought you were referring to by "I use two user accounts to achieve" in your initial post.
And because the menu bar is hidden by default, these days, you can use Alt and B to open the bookmarks menu dropdown Bar Menu 'revealed' so you can access this menu "Set as bookmarks toolbar folder" item - without having to show the Menu Bar all the time.

BTW, using 'accounts' instead of 'Profiles' can be confusing during the review of Firefox profiles.

  • (Vista) Is there a PRACTICE way to switch between speakers and analog headset?

    (Vista) Is there a PRACTICE way to switch between speakers and analog headset? Must I ALWAYS return the default setting, depending on which audio output device I want to use?

    We have recently installed Music Maker 16.  Before that, we never had a need for headphones and a microphone.  Now, in trying to use the headphone and microphone - and THEN switch back to speakers - we discover a problem.  Apparently, the only way to do it is to change the audio output device by default EVERY time.

    The dispute with this cannot be more of this.  My son records a beat and singing (with headphone and microphone), and then, play through speakers (so we can all hear), we need to change the default settings.  And back...  There must be a better way!

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Please talk layman jargon; I'm not a COMPUTER guru.  Thank you!!!

    Hi AnnieElle,

    You will need to switch between the speakers and the analog device and special value to use as the default device. There is no way to set the device to be used at the same time. You can follow the steps below to switch between the speaker and analog device.

    1. right click on the speaker icon in the taskbar.

    2. click on the playback device.

    3. Select speakers or analog device.

    4. right-click on it and click on set as default device.

    Hope the above information helps.

    Thank you and best regards,

  • Quick way to switch between desktop applications

    Hello.

    From what I understand, the "move to the top left corner, click and move down the left edge"Win8 maneuver only works with modern applications. "

    Using desktop for most applications, I often find it difficult to move quickly from one to the other. The taskbar or desecration bar (alt + tab) are much too crowded.

    Is there a way faster and more efficient?

    Oh and by the way, what happens to the spinning wheel (Win + tab key)?

    What Windows Key + Tab

    There also 3rd party software to change your Alt + Tab completely as VistaSwitcher (I think it is compatible with Windows 8)
    The task bar are a good way to switch between desktop applications too
    You can the software in the taskbar next to the line and proceed with the Windows key + 1,2,3,4

    What is the largest hard drive that will work in a HP Pavilion dv6324us laptop?

    Hello:

    Here is the link to the service manual for your laptop.

    http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c01035677.PDF

    Support for HARD drives and capacities are listed in Chapter 3, page 3-25.

    Personally, I think you could install a SATA II 320 GB to your laptop.  Maybe even a 500 GB.

    You could also probably install a drive of 7 200 rpm for better performance or if the battery life between charges is more important for you, then stick with a disk of 5 400 rpm.

    I was not able to open my my Adobe Illustrator application after update. He says there are a few problems with the preference but after following the instructions, Illustrator still does not work and it keeps giving the samei question. Help, please.

    I think you are talking after upgrade to CC 2015 you're not able to launch I. Also, I believe you speak for read only matter of preference.

    After following the instructions please do not launch Illustrator and check your file preference if the permissions have been set correctly. A good way would be to get inside the preferences folder and then try to create a file manually. If it succeeds, please write to [email protected]

    prices mp4 wemb of video files, that the TWO needed for a video work in the MUSE?

    Hi TheArthur,

    Now a version more recent days of all browsers support format video mp4 but some older versions of browsers still need to format to play webm video.

    HTML5 video

    So if your analysis says that none of the visitors to your site use these older browsers, so you can skip webm file but where there are users of the site who use the old version of browsers that do not support mp4 then it is advisable to use webm and mp4 videos.

  • The best way to manage email with two computers?

    Hello. My wife and I shared a single hotmail address and it played back on Windows Live Mail for years. We got a second computer, ahe will use one and I'll use a new one. What are the options on how to handle our email? We would both keep our shared email address, and we both like to show emails via windows live mail on our separate computers. However, what are the suggestions from the community for how to manage our email here on out. Thank you.

    I do not use WLM (you can ask in the forum here: www.windowslivehelp.com), but you should have a setting somewhere (in OE its under Tools |) Accounts | Mail | Properties | Advanced) and then you check the box to leave messages on the server when you download the messages instead of remove them (which is default) and while the two computers can read the messages.  However, on one of them to be removed after a number of days defined, otherwise they accumulate on the server and possibly the block on the account.  I'm sure that WLM has a similar setting, but you can ask in this forum.

  • What's the first is equivalent to 'A' (Vegas) and "Auditions" (FCPX)?

    Good afternoon

    I searched, but could not find an answer... perhaps because I do not know the term I'm looking for. I hope that the title explain it...

    In Sony Vegas there is a feature called 'takes' where I can add different versin a scene and test take it I like better and use it. Similarly, FCP X has a fature called hearings which seems to do exactly the same thing.

    But first have this feature? If so, what's her name and where can I find it?

    Thanks a lot for your help.

    First doesn't have this feature. The best way to test a different cut of a scene is to create a new sequence.

    You can put in a request to feature here:

  • What is the latest version of Firefox, which works with Windows ME?

    We recently had a portable older Gateway that we use only as an internet point. Unfortunately, it is currently running Windows ME and I don't even know if it has all the technical features to be upgraded (and certainly not for Vista, which is the only thing that we have an installation disc for). The vehicle currently has Firefox 2.0.0.20, which of course contains many security holes and is not compatible with most of the newer plugins. What is the best version of Firefox that works with Windows ME, and it is still available for download? Thank you!

    Sorry, Firefox 2.0.0.20 is the last version made for WinME.

  • You want to upgrade the phones - what is the current trick to get this working?

    Hi guys! I currently have an Alienware Area 51 and I got back in the PC a little more that when I brought the machine. This means that I am looking to update, but I am limited by the motherboard, because it doesn't support USB 3.0 PCI Express 3.0 and SATA III. Change the motherboard to a new one that supports these features would be the simple solution to this problem, but I heard stories of people unable to get fans, active on the evacuation and fire works after breaking out in a new motherboard. I also heard stories from people who have been able to get everything running smoothly after connection of the Control Commission, in a certain way.

    What is the current trick to get the characteristics of any work? And the front USB ports can be upgraded to USB 3.0?

    Yes, it is possible to swap in a new mthrbrd & have AlienFx as your price
