Is there a way to make the popup that opens when you click on 'Manage Bookmarks' open up to a different folder than 'Other Bookmarks'? There is nothing in that folder. ever. Why cannot we open it to 'Bookmarks Menu'? or whatever? thanks, terry

Bonjour, depuis le 17 décembre 2024 mes marques-pages sont sorties de leurs dossiers respectifs, tout est mélangé, c'est à dire les marques-pages et les dossiers, je n'ai rien fait pour que ça se produise, pourriez-vous résoudre ce problème rapidement, s'il vous plaît, merci beaucoup, car c'est très compliqué pour m'y retrouver, tout est désorganisé !

Have been using Firefox 133.03 on Mint 22 Cinnamon for a couple of weeks now, but I have a number of randomly missing favicons in my bookmark toolbar. I have extensively googled the issue and tried pretty much all the remedies I could find: just click on the place holder icon to refresh, delete the bookmark and place it again, use the Checkmark extension, check the integrity of the favicon DB, delete the favicon and places.sqlite files, clear the cache. Doing these things repeatedly and repeatedly restarting Firefox, I could claw back a number of my icons, but now things have stalled and there a quite a few holdouts that refuse to update. I'm also using Firefox on Windows without these issues. Would appreciate some hints as to how to further troubleshoot this.

On Galaxy 23 Ultra using Android 14 & Ui 6.1 w/ Firefox, my Bookmarks disappeared. How do I get them back? Tried about:profiles, but nothing comes up. Recently due screen going haywire, phone was reset & the shop left me with Google, which I hate. Have been things getting back to Firefox I've used for years. Not sure if lost then. Bookmarks screen/setup I get, must be Google's, because it's not like FF's. I have Samsung & Google backups, but didn't realize Bookmarks were not put in them. Phone & apps are kept updated. FYI if it matters: Due to storm damage, I'm without a computer that might help. Help, pls. I'd be very appreciative.

I’ve been experiencing an issue with Firefox where the keywords I add to my bookmarks randomly disappear. I’ve made sure to save them correctly, but after some time, the keywords seem to vanish without any explanation. This happens intermittently, and it’s frustrating because it affects how I organize and access my bookmarks efficiently.

Has anyone else encountered this problem? If so, is there a fix or workaround available? Any guidance or advice would be greatly appreciated!

I'm on a page I want to save to bookmarks. I double click the star and select the bookmark list, then save - but the page is not showing on the list. The list was recovered from another browser but was originally Firefox. Should I start a new bookmark list and if so how do I import all the categories and book mark?

I installed new firefox and it did not work. So I downloaded older version of firefox that does work. But somehow it/I installed my Chrome bookmarks and not my older firefox bookmarks. Can anything be done?

I am using the version 115.20.0esr (64-bit) and have noticed I have links in my bookmarks, that are either from other bookmark folders but I never copied them over, or I have new links that I never clicked to be saved? I have deleted those I found but some more keep popping up?

It's not clear to me from the general help instructions how to get my passwords and bookmarks from my old computer to my new one. All the files from my old computer were transferred into one big folder and placed on the Desktop of my new computer. I don't know how to find the right file in the backup and where I need to copy it to on my new computer. I know a while ago I had to recover my passwords, but I forget the steps I went through and it was all on the same computer so slightly different situation although as I recall it was not all that difficult. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have followed these instructions for deleting all bookmarks at once but Firefox isn't responding to these commands so I have to delete each bookmark individually. To delete a lot of bookmarks at once, use the Library dialog. Either: * Ctrl+Shift+b * Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks In the left panel, click Bookmarks Menu. In the right panel, click the top item you want to remove, then press Shift+End to select all the way to the bottom, then right-click > Delete.

Dear community,

This morning, after a reboot of my Laptop during the night, I opened Firefox with the frustrating surprise that I lost all my bookmarks and all my history (websites and downloads). The saved passwords looks fine.

How could that have happen? Need your help to get those back... specifically my bookmarks!

Note: I went trough several support articles of Firefox but none helped. I tried to restore my bookmarks but got the message "Unable to process the backup file.".

Any thanks.

Hello there; I had installed the "savefrom.net" extension. This extension automatically generated the website address to the "bookmarks toolbar". I deleted the extension and deleted the shortcut as well. But when the bookmarked website shortcut "firefox" is closed and reopened, it adds itself to the bookmarks toolbar again. No matter what I did, it didn't work. I don't want to delete Firefox completely and reinstall it. Because there are too many shortcuts and data that I use all the time. How do you think I can solve this problem?

As of a few days ago whenever I start Firefox the window appears with the Bookmarks sidebar panel already opened. I click the "X" on the sidebar and it will close - until the next time I start Firefox. If I choose Menu->View->Sidebar->Bookmarks and uncheck it the panel will close - until the next time I start Firefox. No matter how the Bookmarks sidebar is closed, it will always reappear when Firefox is restarted. Even if I switch to some other sidebar, Bookmarks will replace it on startup.

I've searched about:config and found no setting which seems to control sidebar behavior on startup.

I assume this is the result of some recent update. Is there no longer a way to permanently disable the Bookmarks sidebar?

MacOS 12.7.5 Firefox 127.0 (64-bit)

I recently added the "Display Autoplay" extension. I can't seem to figure out how to get the icon to show in the tool bar. See Attached acreen shot. That's assuming that this extension icon can be added to the tool bar. I look forward to anyone's comments. Thanks

Hello,

My old PC crashed and I want to transfer my bookmarks from the old hard drive to my new PC running windows 11. I have unlocked hidden files, but when I ran drive:\Users\username\AppData\roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles nothing came up. I then ran places.sqlite and a list of places.sqlite appeared with some files having -wal &-shm after them?

I believe from reading here this is where my bookmarks are?

If so, how do I transfer them to my existing PC hard drive to use please? Many thanks Chris
