why I can't add bookmarks, and slots "Top Sites" and "Highlights" are empty? On second computer everything in browser works and they are synchronized
hi
I'm looking for reason why (from about 2 days) I can't add bookmarks in FF browser, and why slots "Top Sites" and "Highlights" are empty? I have FF on second computer and they are synchronized - and in second browser everything works fine.

If you use Sync then best is to disconnect Sync temporarily during troubleshooting.
You can check for problems with the places.sqlite (bookmarks and history) and favicons.sqlite files in the Firefox profile folder.
- use "Verify Integrity" button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page
in case errors are reported close and restart Firefox and retry

If "Verify Integrity" button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page cannot repair places.sqlite then remove all places.sqlite files in the Firefox profile folder. Firefox will rebuild places.sqlite and restore the bookmarks from a recent JSON backup in the bookmarkbackups folder.
- keep a backup copy of places.sqlite in case a new places.sqlite database has to be created
