windows 7 book marks

11 years ago

I have noticed with this windows that I am unable to save a book mark if I already have it saved on my list.

Sometimes If I am watching something or left a post I like to save the exact page that I need to go to in a file folder to check back.

Is there a way to save the site more than once?

Sometimes it is hard to find my way to the exact area and many sites have a whole list of places within the site I can chose to go to.

Bookmark? Watching something? Site? Aren't you talking about a browser, not an operating system? Whole different beast entirely.

So: which browser?

You can save/over write the one you want, and later save the home page.

Windows 7 would come with Windows Media player 12. What sort of errors do you get for downloads?

My Ds might be the same way (he's only 10, so no parking tickets yet, but forgetting his lunchbox or his homework at school - though never a book!). He is continually reading - even if we're going somewhere - we were taking the kids to a 6pm show at the circus 35-40 minutes away and he had to take a book in the car! I don't know how he can read in the car - I always got motion sickness when I tried. I think he stays up late at night reading and that's why he's so tired in the AM - send him to bed b/t 8:30-9pm, get him up at 7, and he's dragging. When he was about 4 (in preschool, but I forget whether it was PS1 or PS2 - he went for 2 yrs) he explained to his teacher how cell phones worked - he had seen the towers, asked about the antennas, and so I told him the basics. She was impressed - but that's what you get when you have an engineer and a computer geek for parents! He was always asking questions. Now of course he thinks Mom's the dumbest person on earth, always wants Dad to help him with homework - I had to convince him the other night that I really did know how to add fractions! Though by the time he gets to calculus I might need to brush up. DD is just more interested in animals and flowers than technology - and I'm not good at biology/botany so I have a hard time answering her questions.

What i think is going to happen in the book, is very sad. i think that harry will live in the end. although the same can not be said for ron. i think that his is one the characters that will die in the book. he will be protecting harry or his family when it happens. as for the other, i think it will be hagrid who dies trying to save harry as well. snape will turn out to be a good guy, that only killed dumbledore as he was ordered. in the chapter of HBP snape was in my opinion being watched by wormtail when narcissa and bellatrix were there. he was listening at the door for the whole conversation, and i bet voldemort had him there to find out. he had more than once chance to kill harry, but he didnt. and i think that is because that he was in love with lilly, and that is the reason he despised james as much as he did. so he is a possibility to die as well. wormtail owes harry his life. dumbledore said that he didnt think that voldemort would want someone as one of his followers that owed a lifedebt to the person he was trying to kill. as for the horcruxes, we know there are 6 of them. the diary, the ring and the locket we know are half of them. so what are the other 3? well, it could be the cup that belonged to hufflepuff, and nagini would be the fifth, but what about the last one? its not harry, that much is clear to me. why would voldemort transfer a piece of his soul to the boy that he thought he had to kill that night? doesnt make sense to me. he marked him as his equal, and transfered powers yes, but not his soul. so the 6th and final horcrux is a mystery to me. we know from what dumbledore says that the 7th and final piece for harry to kill is voldemort himself. all i can guess is that the sorting hat and the sword are not one of them. i think that harry having his mothers eyes is going to play the biggest role of the book. it is mentioned over and over in the previous books, so there must be something significant there right? could it possibly be something like celtic magic? i think that draco will turn on voldemort and realize the errors of his ways. he couldnt go through with killing dumbledore, he was scared and couldnt do it. he knew what had to be done as ordered by voldemort and still couldnt do it. he will not die, but will turn out to be a teacher at hogwarts at the end of the book. someone will find a cure for lupin and he and tonks will end up living a very happy life together. with ron dying, that opens the possibility of harry hermione getting together. and personally, that would make more sense then hermione and ron. bill and fleur will get married at the beginning of the book. mcgonagal will become headmistress at hogwarts, hagrid will become head of Gryffindor, slughorn will remain as potions teacher, and head of slytherin, and someone new will teach transfiguration. not sure about DADA class. someone new will probably be introduced. i believe that filch will...

I read that jk might release bk 7 on 07/07/07. yay! i also think that ron might die. Firstly, because the best friend of the hero usually dies, and second because of this article I found: "Why Ron is probably gonna get the axe before it's all over. Let's start with killing off one myth: the Ollivander's anagram. Sure, it spells out "Ronald lives" if rearranged. It also spells out "Ronald's evil" though, so I don't think that's any guarantee our little redhead is going to make it throughÂ There are two main reasons (and a bunch of smaller ones) to why I think that Ron will die. Of course, I don't want him to - it would be completely horrible - but I didn't want Sirius to die either and he did, so I figure, better be prepared for the worst, eh? Reason 1: The Stupid Joke Those of you who frequent the HP Sleuth page are familiar with the theory that when Ron makes a joke, it usually turns out to come true. I know that Galadriel Waters writes about this in her books too, but since I haven't read them, I can't make any parallels. I could repeat all the HP Sleuth arguments regarding Ron, jokes and fortune telling, but since it's already online, I'll just refer you to the HP Sleuth page instead. To the point. In OotP, Ron makes a very stupid joke indeed: "And from now on, I don't care if my tea-leaves spell die, Ron, die - I'm just chucking them in the bin where they belong" (p. 633). What bothers me here is not only that it's one of Ron's jokes, but that the "die, Ron, die" is emphasised by being put in italics. JKR could have not done this. She could have used quotation marks instead, or nothing at all for that matter. Also, the word "die" is duplicated and put around the word "Ron", surrounding it. It doesn't look too goodÂ Reason 2: McGonagall's Chess game This is a theory that I received quite some time ago from Dora and Gally. Clumsy in general as I am, I lost their e-mail address, so I couldn't write them back about it. I'll just hope that they don't mind me using it. :-) Everything in italics is part of the message they sent me. (The passage is PS p. 204-206 UK paperback edition by the way.) "Rowling always had a good sense of humour ;-). She described the Second Wizard War in the McGonagall's chess game. The chessmen (chessmen, figures...how strangely she describes them, like real people, not like pieces of stone) are black (Aurors) and white (Death Eaters). The white figures are scary, cus they are "faceless" (white terrible masks of Death Eaters) "Harry, Ron and Hermione shivered slightly -- the towering white chessmen had no faces." Then let's take a look at this: "Well, Harry, you take the place of that bishop, and Hermione, you are next to him instead of that castle." "What about you?" "I'm going to be a knight," said Ron." That's a very strange choice, isn't it? Ron is very good at chess, he must knew, that it's better to be a king, because kings can stay until the end of...

Or just give it a different name if you don't want to over write the one already in your book marks. Mary

Sorry, I don't understand, how to write over one already in my book mark list.
I don't understand a whole lot about computer language.

What I am referring to is in my browser Firefox at the top of the screen is something called bookmarks. I an address to a site that I like to go to.

Like for example That homesite I just click on the book mark to come here. If I wanted to save for example the link directly to gardening it would bring up that page I wouldn't need to go look for it.

I know how to get around on this site as I have been coming here since almost day one. Even back when for awhile we had to pay to use this site.

When you click to bookmark a page doesn't a little box show up with name already on one line and below that a line showing what folder it's going into (if you have folders created)?

You can highlight the name and then type in any name you wish (it will overwrite the highlighted name and replace it).

I don't use Firefox so hope this isn't confusing you. Many browsers have 'tabs'. I think Firefox does. They are wonderful. Saves the exact page you're on.

Here is a link that might be useful: info page on Mozilla Firefox Tabs

I bookmarked this thread two different ways.

{{gwi:1488755}}

For one, I used "Bookmarks->Bookmark This page" (Ctrl-D) to create a bookmark in my "Bookmarks Menu". I also dragged the URL from the "Location Bar" and dropped it onto my "Bookmarks Toolbar".

Although I used the same page, (this thread), for both, they could have just as easily have been different Gardenweb threads.

As long as the "Location" (which is taken from the URL in the Location Bar) is different for each Bookmark, each will take me to a different page.

However...

Sometimes If I am watching something or left a post I like to save the exact page that I need to go to in a file folder to check back.

If you're on certain sites/pages, you may not be able to bookmark it the way you want. For example, http://www.tvland.com/video-clips or http://www.msnbc.com/first-look.

In both cases you go to the page, you watch a few clips, perhaps look through the video playlist and click one, decide you'll watch the rest later so bookmark it but it doesn't remember which one you watched last. Why? Because as you navigated, or let it play on its own, the URL in the "Location Bar" remains the same, so any bookmark you create will remain the same.

Truthfully though, I don't have a clear picture of exactly what you're trying to do so I can recreate the problem. An example site or two might really help. :)

To where are you placing these bookmarks?

In the Bookmarks list in Firefox?

Or to the Windows desktop or a folder thereon?
