When saving a Bookmark, and security is not an issue, it's useful to have User Name and PW in the properties tab. If the PW has CAPS within it and is saved, when reviewed, the CAPS have been all changed to lower-case. Makes it difficult to remember which character(s) were Capitalized when entering a PW. This is a problem with sites that require mixed characters.

takes long time for my browser to load a web site initially
At start up my browser takes a long time to load a web site initially. I used to see this initial load time much shorter than now. Any suggestions?

When I shifted over to firefox, I set the home screen to display bookmarks, and my bookmarks weren't showing (only one, not sure why this was the chosen one).
I deleted them all, and then added them sequentially, and they all appeared and all seemed to work.
Now they've all dropped off again.
I don't have 'restore previous setting' selected (as a prior answer suggests would work, described here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1253979). I sync my settings on my phone/surface pro/iMac.
Any thoughts? Thanks.

I'm using Firefox for Android 68.1. From a new tab page I select 'Bookmarks'. In the list of bookmarked web pages I long press a on an entry and a menu pops up with different options. I then select 'Remove' to delete that bookmark. Nothing happens and the bookmark is still there. Am I doing the correct procedure to delete a bookmark?

I can't delete any bookmarks.
I can't delete any bookmarks. No "star" in address bar. There was one, but when I clicked on it, nothing happened. Now it's gone.
Can't delete bookmarks.
When I click on the star, nothing happens. It doesn't turn blue. It doesn't do anything.

If I try to drag and drop a new bookmark onto the bookmark icon (the star with the line under it), it USED to open up Bookmarks and I could place the new bookmark where ever. That no longer works.
I CAN drag/drop into a folder on the menu bar but not into bookmarks directly.

One website was getting stuck on TLS handshake. An article suggested I create a new Profile but gave no warning that I would lose my many hundreds of bookmarks built up over many years. I tried some of the suggested solutions without luck. Any help gratefully appreciated.

I use firefox and just got a new pc. I want to have the same bookmarks toolbar on firefox on the new pc. How do I export my bookmarks toolbar from my old pc?
I tried exporting/importing the "bookmarks.html" file, but the toolbar on the new pc is empty. The bookmarks toolbar was not exported.
Do I have to recreate the toolbar by hand, one site at a time? That's very bad. I have literally hundreds of bookmarks on my firefox toolbar.
FF update, bookmarks gone, bookmark import doesn't work.
If I click Library, Bookmarks, Show All Bookmarks, it stops and takes me back to the main page so I can't import BMs from Chrome.

I have a bunch of sub-folders of bookmarks within the Other Bookmarks folder on my laptop Firefox. I like to bookmark sites of Mobile Firefox within these same sub-folders. Unfortunately, when I go on my laptop, I am unable to see the bookmarks that I saved when I was on my phone. I know there is a separate folder for Mobile Bookmarks, but I don't want to use those, because the sub-folders I created are better organized for my uses. I can provide more info about my browser configurations and other details if necessary. I appreciate any and all help I receive from everyone here. Thank you.
How can I get rid of the icons that have appeared in the bookmarks toolbar with the latest Firefox update (69.0)?
The question says it all, I think: the unwanted (and visually irritating) icons have nudged several items off my visible toolbar.

Firefox 69.0, Windows 7 Pro 64bit
I was having problems with Firefox taking a long time (30 seconds?) to fetch an open tab when restarting and I was unable to add or delete bookmarks. I learned about and turned off sync (set identity.fxaccounts.enabled to false) and that seemed to solve the problem. No more startup delay and was able to add and delete bookmarks. But now I've discovered that at some point in the session the ability to add and remove bookmarks disappears. If I close Firefox and restart, I get a message that Firefox is still running. I close the running session, restart, and the ability to add and delete bookmarks reappears, but eventually breaks again.
