Hi! I recently had the motherboard on my Dell laptop replaced and I'm afraid I've lost all of my bookmarks. I was not able to backup anything before everything went black and I don't think I was signed in at all to Firefox. Dell had to replace the motherboard and although I had my documents backed up on OneDrive, I'm thinking maybe my bookmarks are long gone? Is there any way to restore them at all? Please say yes, please say yes!!! LOL! Thank you!

Since I upgrade MacOS to Big Sur, a couple basic Firefox functions have stopped working. 1) History is not being saved. I can restore deleted tabs, but there is nothing in the History menu, nor is there any record (for example, in the form of auto-complete) of websites I have visited in the past. 2) My bookmarks file appears to be mostly read-only. Clicking on the star icon to save a new bookmark does nothing. Selecting Bookmarks > Bookmark Current Tab does nothing. In the Manage Bookmarks environment, selecting Add Bookmark from the gear icon brings up a dialog box in which the only content is a Cancel button. In the Manage Bookmarks environment, I can change the Name of a current bookmark but cannot change its URL. If I try, it reverts to the old URL as soon as I click away from it.

The current help page that most closely describes my symptoms is https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/changes-toolbars-and-window-sizes-are-not-saved. I tried both remedies, including refreshing Firefox and deleting xulstore.json, but no change in symptoms.

Is there a simple way to get rid of duplicate toolbar folders? The two add-on that you have in the list don't work anymore. Can you put a "remove duplicate folders" in toolbar commands? Thanks for your help and interest.

My Mac Book Pro crashed so I could not download the bookmarks before buying a new Mac and I cannot retrive the old bookmarks from excisting profiles. (How) Can I get the old bookmarks on my new Mac?

Hello Guys :)

The Firefox has updated and now, the bookmarks bar are black (previous as white).

Any option to turn the bookmarks bar to white again?

Any suggestion?, thank you.

So, I just noticed today that my bookmarks section is having the same issue again that it had a few updates back.

I tried looking into repeating what I did last time, but it doesn't seem that this is the issue this time as the settings have not changed from when I went into to edit them the last time. Meaning this might be a whole new issue. I *did* however notice that there is a new and odd section listing in about:config under the following:

browser.bookmarks.defaultLocation SxQPPk-c1zth

Does anyone know if this is the issue, and if so, where this is supposed to really go?

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Hey everyone!

I had a quick, and maybe weird, question to ask... is there any way to have two separate bookmark folders that are complete mirrors of each other? For example, if I added a bookmark to one folder, then the other folder would also have the bookmark added to it.

I sure hope the answer is yes! haha. It would really help my bookmark organization OCD! :D

Thanks everyone!

version 94.0.2 (64-bit) message: "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 can not see any of my bookmarks and I can not bookmark any page. I have: Shut down Firefox and restarted: no help uninstalled, deleted folders, and reinstalled: no help Import bookmarks from another browser: no help. That doesn't work either

What "security software" is the message talking about?

Hope you can help, because I don't want to go to another browser.

My desktop PC broke (hard drives are OK). I got a new PC with Windows 11 and the former C: drive is now the G: drive.

I installed Firefox and I need to get all my bookmarks back. I can find my old profile on the G: drive in .../appdata/local/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles and I tried replacing the new Firefox profile on C: with the old one from the G: drive, but Firefox just keeps creating a new one and ignoring the old one.

There are years of bookmarks there I'd really like to get them back.

Help, Please?
