I just got a new Mac laptop and I again chose Firefox as my default browser. I used to have a series small tabs of frequently accessed websites at the top of the firefox home page...like my google email, Amazon, etc. I tried to do that again, only now I end up with a whole series of websites and bookmarks all across the top of the page : Yahoo, Bing, Wikipedia, Twitter, etc,. etc. I want to get rid of this lineup and I'd like to be able to add my personal email, and a few other frequently visited websites. I thought that these small tabs at the top of the page were called shortcuts - but after turning the toggle on an off in firefox settings and not changing a thing - I don't know what they are or how to delete what's there and get my person tabs back. Please help.

Before it's settled whether you're looking for bookmarks, (pinned) tabs or shortcuts, can you check this article Bookmarks Toolbar - Display your favorite websites at the top of the Firefox window if that's the feature you're looking for? The help pages include pictures to better compare with what you're seeing. If this is the toolbar, its content is managed via Bookmarks in Firefox.

If you're looking for a different feature, feel free to attach a screenshot here.
