Hello friends.
I have several shared folders with the Windows 10 partition that I have bookmarked in Caja file manager. When I use an application as LibreOffice, GIMP, etc., these bookmarks do not appear.
In my Linux Mint MATE 13 it was working, I have update to the version 17 and already it does not work.
More this happens to someone?
Thank-you.

Re: Bookmarks that do not work
I'm using LM 17 and mounted locations do show up in other application's open/save dialogs. Perhaps your bookmarked locations aren't mounted?
Re: Bookmarks that do not work
Hello theStreak. This is strange. My bookmarked locations are mounted.
Hello PGG. I have manually add my bookmarked locations in $HOME/.config/gtk-3.0/bookmarks and now all work well.
Thank-you.

Re: [SOLVED] Bookmarks that do not work
I had the same problem but solved this way:
The problem occurs because there are two distinct bookmark files and they are not synchronised. They are ~/.config/gtk-3.0/bookmarks (where the bookmarks used in file dialogs are contained), and ~/.gtk-bookmarks (where Caja stoes its bookmarks).
So what I did was to rename one file as a backup (the more empty one), then combine everything I needed into the other file, then create a symlink between the two:
In a terminal, as a normal user (not root):
The above worked for me on Mint 17.1 Rebecca 64-bit.
