How to remove unlinked labels from bookmark organization ?

Deleting accumulated labels for deleted bookmarks

Good day,

I organize my bookmarks progressively, categorizing them by folders and labels. The labels are stored (libraries - above all the bookmarks) within their respective folder "labels". I deleted some bookmarks a few days ago and noticed that I am unable to delete the labels which have accumulated and been automatically recorded in the "Labels" folder.

How can I delete these numerous labels that are no longer linked to any bookmarks ?

Thank you for your responses and suggestions.

Hi,

My bookmarks in Firefox Android are not sorted as they are with my Firefox Linux and Firefox Windows. The problem started about 4 to 8 weeks ago.

What needs to happen to have Firefox Android sort my bookmarks the same way as my Firefox Linux and Firefox Windows, please?


Thanks, Stephen

Hello. Today I updated Firefox to Version 138.0.3 64 bit and I have found that the Search Bookmarks in Bookmarks no longer works where as in Version 138.0.1 it did. I have done a Refresh and it still does not work. I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing this problem. Is this a bug or something new with the current update. Could someone tell me how to solve this a using the Search Bookmarks function was a big help. Thank you.

Respectfully, Don

Not sure whats going on here, been using FF for decades with no problems. I am saving bookmarks to various folders but recently noticed some were not in the folders I was sure I had saved them too. For example, in the screenshot attached I had saved the Rink Diary Bookings to my Bowls folder, but when I opened the folder later the bookmark was not shown. I did the Google search and checked what I could and most solution options were aimed at the Toolbar, which I didn't have a problem with. I then noticed some other bookmarks were no longer showing. I then saved a new Rink Diary Bookings link (now ending in '1') to a second folder so I knew which link was from each folder. This new bookmark also failed to show in the new folder. I somehow found a search button for the bookmarks and found both the bookmarks in the correct folders. (See attached) Can anyone advise how to get the bookmarks to show in, and open from, the actual folders? I am not very tech minded so any help is appreciated. I have copied the folder menu's in the attachment Thank you.

Some of my bookmarks are gone AGAIN. This time adding .old to files and deleting others did not fix the problem, nor has restarting firefox. I can see that sites have blue stars, indicating that they are saved into bookmarks (such as "weather") that I can no longer see in my bookmarks menu. Trying to recover bookmarks does not work. I can see recent dates of bookmarks. I can see old firefox data on my desktop.

Bookmarks are a basic function of browsers. This is RIDICULOUS. Please fix this issue.

I have not had ANY UPDATES to my computer since yesterday. Yesterday all my bookmarks were there!

In Safari I can right click on a URL & navigate through a hierarchy of folders to a specific location & add the bookmark to that folder.

Having imported that folder hierarchy to Firefox, I can't find a way to save the page I am currently on to a particular folder in that hierarchy.

Bookmarks have been intermittently disappearing for weeks but I could always see the blue star when I visited favorite sites that I use upon starting my day that I had bookmarked. This morning all bookmarks were missing. I tried clearing cache which had worked to restore some bookmarks that were missing. Now everything is gone and I cannot recover them. There is an error that appears when I open Firefox re: bookmarks and I followed the steps but it did not work. I really need my bookmarks to do all the things I need to do, like everyone else, including medical information websites. I hope you all can get this figured out as it has been a problem for a month for me, on a PC. I know my favorites are stored somewhere on this computer but I cannot make them populate. If someone would like to take control of my computer and fix it for me, I would happy to let you do that. I have run sfc/scannow and chkdsk/f as well as a total virus scan with Norton. I have restarted my computer several times as well as done a complete shutdown several times.

Hi I use several different Linux distros in all my machines. I am trying to merge my bookmarks for each OS in a computer into a file which I then will restore to all OSes.

I am hoping to edit that file myself, as I may at a later stage try to merge all bookmarks from all OSes in all machines.

So I am thinking of looking into key3.db files and see if I can come up with something, but I can't find the file in Artix. I have not tried other OSes yet.

I am running Firefox Browser 136.0; Mozilla Firefox for Artix Linux; artixlinux - 1.0

I've imported bookmarks to Firefox, however the Bookmarks bar doesn't show on a blank tab (I'll raise another forum post about this). If I manually add the Bookmarks toolbar, it permanently shows only a few Bookmarks, not the original Bookmarks that have been imported?

I imported the Bookmarks 3 times as shown on the attached screenshot, but somehow they have been stored by default, in the wrong location. The correct location would be so the Bookmarks appear in the Bookmarks toolbar.

Hi,

when I bookmark a website, for example "My Awesome Video" (www.youtube.com...), certain websites add something to the title. Youtube for example adds " - Youtube" so that the title is not "My Awesome Video" anymore but "My Awesome Video - Youtube". Is there a way, to prevent this behaviour?

If the list contains many entries the 2nd level drop-down menu overrides 1st level. This does not happen with firefox preceding version.
