Since the mentioned update my bookmarks no longer appear in their set order and sometimes desktop bookmarks aren't visible at all. On one occasion, an element on my desktop bookmarks was displaced upon merely checking if it was there on the tablet.

I cleared cache & app data and reinstated sync TWICE on the tablet. Immediately afterwards the bookmarks restored their expected behaviour, but each time, after closing the app and reopening, they were either haphazardly jumbled or not visible in the menu at all.

This report is filled in response to your support message to my comment on PlayStore.

I have firefox on a Windows 10 laptop plus two android phones and two android tablets. The Bookmarks on the laptop, both tablets and one phone are shown in alphabetic order. The Bookmarks on one phone are in random order. How can I make these Bookmarks list in alphabetic order? I have read that I cannot simply reorder the bookmarks, so I probably need to delete the bookmarks, ON THIS PHONE ONLY and definitely not on my other devices. Then would "Sync” import the Bookmarks from "the cloud"? Or would "Sync" export the now-empty "Bookmarks" folder from this phone to the cloud?

Firefox mobile version 138 on Samsung Galaxy A14 5G

For years I've had my bookmarks arranged in a specific order. The day after the most recent Firefox update I discovered that my bookmarks have somehow been rearranged in alphabetical order.

What caused this to happen and how do I prevent it from happening again?

I reinstalled windows yesterday. When I installed firefox and signed it, everything was fine. However, this morning, it seems to have removed 80% of my bookmarks. When I try to restore from the bookmarks yesterday, it just gives me the ones that I have this morning. I had tons and tons of resource bookmarks for my work that would be almost impossible to re-find in some cases due to the current state of search engines. Is there any way to salvage them? It seems like sync believes they never existed, but it DID sync them yesterday??? Please help.

Find my Bookmark Folders

Hi People,

I need to organize bookmarks into a few folders and then navigate back to them. I need to create bookmark folders in Library (or some place that they are out of sight until I click), and then see folders in a drop down list where I can quickly find, for example, the Teaching, Media, etc. folders that I create. I'd love to use the star icon to create a bookmark which shows up in the unsorted part of the same area, and that I can drag into a folder when I need to organize.

This used to work easily. I recently installed windows 10 and Firefox after my drive died. Bookmarks are stacking up and smeared across the toolbar. That's distracting, and I'd prefer them in a sidebar or drop down menu.

This used to happen easily. It used to be simplicity to create folders for bookmarks and sort them by name. It was simple to find them (drop down from Library iirc.) I could see unsorted bookmarks below that, and just drag them into folders to organize.

Now, I CAN'T find folders. I can use More Tools -Customize to move "Bookmark toolbar items" to an overflow space or the library, and get at those spaces from the toolbar menu icon or from the library toolbar icon. But I can't see any folders that I create, only the recent bookmarks. I can manage bookmarks by clicking on Menu -Bookmarks -Manage. I can see created folders and create new ones and even put bookmarks into those folders. But what I can't do is find those folders anywhere else, like in Library or Menu drop down. I've tried creating folders in Bookmarks Menu, Bookmarks Toolbar, and the Other Bookmarks Folder. I see them in manage, but not anywhere else. This is too much hassle to get to bookmarks, and they're a disorganized mess as I bookmark more things. I've read several Firefox help articles and watched a few vids... and nothing is working.

Can you help? Much appreciated,

-Greg

I have 6 folders in my bookmark tree, only 3 appear in my bookmark drop down when saving a bookmark. So I'm constantly dragging a bookmark into one of the folders that don't appear if I want to save it outside of the 3 that do appear. How do I get the bookmark tree to list the missing three folders?

In the last approx 3-4 weeks, Firefox bookmarks on Android and PC have *not* remembered alphabetical sort choices on PC. I cannot sort (and remember) bookmark toolbar alphabetical sort order on PC and I cannot sort and remember bookmark alphabetical sort on Android, synced with the PC. My bookmarks on both PC and Android are arranged in some haphazard way that "sorting by name" under Bookmarks / Manage Bookmarks / Bookmarks Toolbar / Views / Sort / Sort by Name momentarily changes but does not persist to the next time I view. The next time I view the sort of the bookmarks toolbar, it is always "unsorted". Again this has only been an issue in the past 3-4 weeks.
