I have a question about the same topic of this older thread here -

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1257189

...when you do some of the solutions to this problem the copy-and-paste from either the vertical column or in Bookmarks manager it will copy the whole URL code as the title of the link and not what you renamed that link or its default name from its creator.

Is there a way to copy-and-paste the bookmarks WITH the already-created link names attached from the previous Firefox / Waterfox browser?

I'm having an issue when saving bookmarks, I'll find a nice recipe, save it to my recipe folder, little blue star will show on the page showing its bookmarked but when I go to the folder, it's nowhere to be seen. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here, it use to work just fine before.

Is it possible to open all bookmarks in a folder at once, including those in the nested folder?

Hi,

I have been trying to use the extension "Sidebery" to replace "Tree Style Tab"

If my tabs are nested, bookmarking the tab tree will give me nested folder structure in firefox's bookmark.

If I right click on the top level folder in the bookmark, select "open all in tabs", firefox will only open those bookmarks in the 1st level folder, but won't open those bookmarks in the nested folders.

I wonder is there a way to do it? That is, open all bookmarks in a folder with those in the nested folder, all at once?

Best, Jake

I have four active Firefox windows, each with quite a few tabs. I have been closing and re-opening Firefox with no issue until today. Earlier this week I updated my Mac OS to Ventura 13.5, and Firefox was still operating normally after the installation (closing and re-opening with all windows and tabs intact).

Today however, when I restarted Firefox, no windows opened automatically. I closed and restarted a few times, and finally one window opened intact; however the other three windows (still dispalyed on the "Windows" menu) refuse to open. When I look at my Firefox app on my iPhone, it also shows all the tabs intact.

What can I do to get these to open? I am running Firefox version 115.0.3.

I've had this problem off and on for the past month or so. I've read through every related question and tried all solutions presented without any luck.

When I press the star next to the address bar it turns blue, but no bookmark is actually created. When I press the star again it remains blue. No dialogue box shows up. When I right click on the open tab I get a grayed out dialogue box. I *can* bookmark several tabs at once, but that's it.

I've tried changing the preferences in aboug:config to true/false and back again. I've renamed/deleted the favicons folders. I've restarted both firefox and my computer. I'm running in safe mode with no extensions. This happend once about a month ago and resolved itself. Now it's back and doesn't seem to be going away.

PLEASE help. I've tried all the solutions mentioned here before but nothing is helping. :(
