Thanks J.F.
I tried another desktop environment on Ubuntu: KDE (kubuntu) and the behaviour of the Query Tool Favorites is as expected. I can add new favorites and edit the existing ones using the GUI.
As you said looks like the bug is related only to Unity. Which unfortunately is the default desktop environment for Ubuntu.

I've noticed this too but had no time to research.
If I recall it correctly, there shows up some difference in events order when building the menu.
May be, in buggy scenario, pgAdmin first checks the number of menu items (0) and decides to disable, later the menu is filled with items.
If You are on Ubuntu, could you try with another desktop environment? (KDE or Gnome instead of default Unity).
I remember that the bug shows up with Unity only.

> | Hi Colin, Thanks for the feedback. I have also pgAdmin III installed on my Windows 7 workstation and I can observe there the exact behaviour that you are explaining: - add favorite remains greyed out until there is actually something in the query box to save - manage favs remains greyed out until there is something to manage But on my Ubuntu 14.04 laptop, the ‘Add favourite…’ and ‘Manage favourites…’ are greyed out all the time. I have text entered in the query box and the ‘Add favourite…’ is still grey.

On 2 Sep, I sent message to pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org asking for help with PgAdmin Query Tool Favorites. I havent received any reply and I hope this group will be more helpful:
Bug reference: 13605
Logged by: Vahdet Mert
Email address: vahdet.mert@hotmail.com
PostgreSQL version: 9.3.9
Operating system: ubuntu 14.04
Description:
I use pgAdmin extensively but cannot get the Query Tool favorites to work.
The Add Favourite and Manage Favourite menu options are greyed out.
I have a valid .pgadminfavorites xml file as I can edit the xml directly and
see the resulting favorites queries under the Favorites menu. But I just
cannot add new favorites or manage existing through the pgadmin interface.
Running Ubuntu 14.04 and pgAdmin 1.18.1
Thanks,
Vahdet
As feedback, works for me. I'm on openSUSE 13.2 latest pgadmin and I can save and retrieve queries. Note that the add favorite remains greyed out until there is actually something in the query box to save. As soon as a query is saved as a favourite, when you click the menu item the fav appears at the bottom of the list of options and a click on that brings it back. Manage favs remains greyed out until there is something to manage.
