Hello there; I had installed the "savefrom.net" extension. This extension automatically generated the website address to the "bookmarks toolbar". I deleted the extension and deleted the shortcut as well. But when the bookmarked website shortcut "firefox" is closed and reopened, it adds itself to the bookmarks toolbar again. No matter what I did, it didn't work. I don't want to delete Firefox completely and reinstall it. Because there are too many shortcuts and data that I use all the time. How do you think I can solve this problem?

While using an opened tab which I want to keep in place, I find it frustrating that if I want to click on one of my bookmarks in my toolbar, it uses the tab I am currently in which, of course disappears and is overridden with my selection of a bookmark. Is there a setting for me to change how my choosing of a bookmark reacts? I want it to open in a new tab and not on the one I am working with. I have looked everywhere and I cannot find a setting for this.

Since yesterday, I have not been able to add new bookmarks. I want to add two new ones. (I can update or delete bookmarks.) I have read and tried the solution article (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/cant-add-change-or-save-bookmarks), but the fix did not work for me. I am using Windows 11 Pro (fully updated) and Firefox 143.0.1 (64-bit). By the way, Brave is my secondary browser. I can add the two new bookmarks in it without problems. Could someone provide a solution other than the one in the article that I have cited? Again, that solution did not work for me. Thank you.

Greetings Ya'll, Firefox Bookmarks are no longer being initially placed in "Other Bookmarks, they are now being placed in the "Bookmarks" that is under the "Open Application Menu" Tab.

I've found that the "New Bookmarks" can be "Dragged" as a copy to "Bookmarks", from the "Bookmarks" located in the menu, for they will stay there unless I delete them

I can not move the "Bookmarks" back to "Other Bookmarks"

Would I lose My Bookmarks, If I "Refresh" Firefox, as suggested in the "Troubleshooting Section? If there is a chance of this happening then that would Absolutely Be Catastrophic!!

Hello, I’m currently having an issue with Mozilla Firefox.

It says it’s impossible to "bookmark this page" either via the icon or the keyboard shortcut CTRL+D. Additionally, I can’t create folders to sort my existing bookmarks, and I can’t add a bookmark to the personal toolbar. It feels like everything is locked. I’ve already uninstalled and reinstalled the browser, and I’ve removed all my extensions, but the problems persist.

Current Mozilla Firefox version: 146.0.1 (64-bit)

Bonjour,

Depuis quelques temps, je n'arrive plus à enregistrer les pages internet dans mes favoris. "L'étoile" réagit au passage de la souris mais ne se colore plus en bleu comme avant.

J'ai toujours accès à ma liste déjà enregistrer, je peux les ouvrir mais je ne peux pas supprimer les marque-pages non plus.

Sous Win 10, j'ai bien vérifier que Firefox était bien à jour.

Cordialement

Recently switched from Chrome and in Chrome I would open my "Other Bookmarks" folder and middle click a bunch of bookmarks which would open them up in a new tab without switching to that tab or closing the "Other bookmarks" folder.

Is there a way I can replicate this on Firefox? Because at the moment, middle clicking the bookmarks does nothing. This is not about the bookmarks bar at the top.

Am I understanding this correctly?

HTML backup (bookmarks) doesn't support tags and annotations, but JSON backup does, and JSON backup doesn't preserve the website favicons, but HTML backup does?  

So, what I can do, is restore my (saved) bookmarks using JSON backup, then restore the HTML backup, this would get my tags and annotations, and the website favicons back? But the downside, I will need to remove duplicates?

I visited the following site: Broker I can see their favicon in the tab. I bookmarked it to the Bookmark Toolbar, but the favicon is not the same (See image).

I did some search on this in google but nothing helped (refresh it, delete the favicon sql file, devtools chrome enabled, etc). I thought that firefox will honor the absolute path in the website. The following code is from the web site (I used the developer tools to inspect it).

<link id="dynamic-favicon" rel="shortcut icon" href="https://content.client.bnc.ca/content/dam/orion/favicon.ico">

If I edit that line to remove everything before the favicon.ico word, I get the incorrect icon.

This is not an issue in other browsers, but I only use Firefox at home.

How can I solve this? Hopefully without using an extension. Thanks

Clicking "bookmark current tab " does not offer dropdown menu to assign bookmark location. Clicking "bookmark current tab" places bookmark in last used bookmark folder. Workaround is to "edit bookmark" and assign desired location.

The bookmarks on my taskbar are all of a sudden not showing up. I'm unable to drag them there like I used to. Also, the history and menu button on the upper right don't work now. I've restarted with no luck.

My bookmarks toolbar is showing, but it's empty. All of my bookmarks are gone.

I went to a websites and attempted to add it to my bookmarks toolbar, but Firefox failed to add it to my toolbar.

My bookmarks are not being saved anymore. When I try creating a new bookmark, it often simply doesn't work. If I try in troubleshoot mode, it sometimes does, and sometimes doesn't, I have no idea why. Creating new folders, or moving bookmarks, or deleting existing bookmarks is also blocked. In the backup files, I can see the last successful saving of my bookmarks is a month ago, though I'm using Firefox on a daily basis and I can also see that, previously, saves where every couple of days.

I found a recent json file named "bookmarks" in C:\Users\(me)\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\64cqek8b.default-release-1768329501903\weave\failed

The file content : {"ids":[]}

And nothing else.

There's also a squilte file named "bookmarks" in C:\Users\(me)\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\64cqek8b.default-release-1768329501903\weave

The file is dated of today and its size is 1,47 Mo. Which, I believe, shows the data actually exists... but fails to save into json format for some reason.

I hope all needed informations are there, but please ask me if something is missing.

Thank you for reading!

I have a bookmark folder with 12 entries. In the bookmark manager, I see all 12 entries. when I select the bookmark folder from the toolbar, the drop down menu only lists four entries,

I am getting the following error message when using Firefox. The bookmarks and history system will not be functional because one of Firefox's files is in use by another application. Some security software can cause this problem. I cannot see my bookmarks or add new ones. I followed the directions in articles about this problem and they did not. help. I decided to uninstall Firefox and l re-installed it from scratch and i still get the same error message.
