Been trying to retrieved misplaced bookmark folders not bookmarks themselves in the Bookmarks Library with no success even going down several sub-levels; Would be nice if there were a search function, but will take a step-by-step solution. Thanks!

When I discover that I have already bookmarked a URL, I want to easily discover in which of my folder(s) I have saved the bookmark. In some cases, the hosting site morphs the bookmarked URL with a redirect, so I am unable to discover the containing folder by browsing to the URL. Sigh. I would also like to discover situations where I have already bookmarked a single URL in several different folders.

I have downloaded the JSON for my bookmarks file and parsed the JSON. I now know that I have 7388 URLs bookmarked which are saved across 111 folders.

I am having trouble discovering the parent/child relationships between the various folders in which the bookmarks are saved. I have several situations where child folders have the same names and can be identified only when the child's parent folder is known.

Undated Firefox documentation at [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/d.../BookmarkTreeNode#parentid] suggests that each node in the bookmark tree should have a parentid and an index. I see an index but I do not see a parentid. I do see a GUID field. I have seen comments suggesting that parentid has been replaced by GUID.

But the values I see (GUID=FqNNI0k91ZjW, for example) do not make sense and have no connection to the ID fields (ID=2658, for example).

Can anyone help me make sense of the GUID values I am seeing? Are GUIDs now being hashed for some reason?

Last update trashed my book marks, did you sell out to Microsoft? Toll bar gone try to fix but when I logoff it resets to trash. Not happy!!!! Oh I ready did the so called trouble shooting!

Hello,

I have version 143.0.3 (aarch64), running on a 2020 M1 mac. I did an update recently but I still have all of my bookmarks, that's not the problem. The problem is, although the space for the bookmarks toolbar appears when I click "always show" (and disapears when I select "never show"), I see nothing. Nothing shows up in this space and so I have to go menu diving to get to my bookmarks. Do you have an idea how to fix this?

Подскажите! Почему не отображаются favicon в закладках? На первом скриншоте favicon есть на втором скриншоте когда я закладку переложил в папку favicon уже исчез!

Help! Why aren't favicons showing up in my bookmarks? The favicon is there in the first screenshot, but when I moved the bookmark to the folder in the second screenshot, the favicon was already gone!

I recently switched to Firefox and imported all of my chrome bookmarks. When I open the Bookmarks viewer (Ctrl-B) in the sidebar or the Library ("Manage Bookmarks"/Ctrl-Shift-O), the "Bookmarks Menu" folder contains all of my properly organized bookmarks in a tree of subfolders, just like I expect.

But when I open the "hamburger" menu on the upper-right corner and select Bookmarks, It only shows a list of "Recent Bookmarks" (along with some options to manage bookmarks). I tried using the "Customize Toolbar" feature to add the Bookmarks Menu to the toolbar, but when I open it, it just shows the same thing as if I had gone through the hamburger menu.

I tried looking through Settings, but I couldn't find an option to access my "Bookmarks Menu" from a dropdown menu instead of having to open the sidebar or the Library every time. Is there something I'm missing?

Since yesterday, I have not been able to add new bookmarks. I want to add two new ones. (I can update or delete bookmarks.) I have read and tried the solution article (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/cant-add-change-or-save-bookmarks), but the fix did not work for me. I am using Windows 11 Pro (fully updated) and Firefox 143.0.1 (64-bit). By the way, Brave is my secondary browser. I can add the two new bookmarks in it without problems. Could someone provide a solution other than the one in the article that I have cited? Again, that solution did not work for me. Thank you.

On opening Firefox after starting my PC, the bookmarks show on the bookmarks toolbar. However when I click on any of them, nothing happens. I restore them and all's well until I exit Firefox shutdown my PC. On startup, the problem returns.

I want to add a site: http://www.flexmls.com to my bookmarks for auto sign on. I can't seem to do this. can you assist?

Hi all. I'm trying to add Instapaper's 'Send to Kindle Bookmarklet' to the Menu Bar of Firefox on Mac and it won't work.

I've followed Mozilla suggestions when bookmarklets fail to add (essentially it's about making sure the places.sqlite-wal file in the Profiles folder is unlocked -- which it now is), but nothing changes.

Following other articles online, I've discovered that Bookmarklets in general (ie not just this one) won't install, though I have cookies temporarily off, pop-ups temporarily unblocked, the specific site marked as an exception etc, but nothing works.

Because it's not just an Instapaper issue, I'm hoping someone here more tech-minded than me might know the solution.

Many thanks in anticipation.
