Troubleshooting

If you are having trouble adding bookmarklets, ensure the appropriate toolbar in your browser is enabled:

Internet Explorer: enable Links toolbar (see screenshot). If you can't drag Bookmarklets to the Links toolbar, you can add them as follows:

Unlock toolbars: Go to the Tools menu ⇒ Toolbars ⇒ uncheck Lock the Toolbar
Save bookmarklets: Right-click on the Bookmarklet ⇒ Add to Favorites ⇒ click on Yes in the "You are adding a favorite that may not be safe, do you want to continue?" dialogue box ⇒ select the Links folder.

Mozilla and Firefox: enable Bookmarks toolbar (see screenshot)
Opera: enable Personal bar (see screenshot)
Safari: enable Bookmarks bar (see screenshot)

What is What

Simpy This! bookmarks the page you are on.
Search Simpy searches your saved bookmarks.
Note This! saves the highlighted text from the page.
Search Notes searches your saved notes.

Instructions

Click on the orange bookmarklets, keep the mouse button pressed, and move the cursor over your browser's Favorites/Links/Bookmarks/Personal toolbar. Once the cursor is over the toolbar, let go of the mouse button.
