I thought I would report that after updating Firefox to version 149.0, I had no audio initially in YouTube videos but before I had NO problem with any. For a Firefox video sound example, the video played audio fine at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LtOGa5M8AuU. My computer audio worked fine in Windows System. I did not change any YouTube audio setting in the videos. Audio is not blocked. After clicking on more videos and trying to play them, the audio is now getting back to the way it used to work although the audio setting are still the same. This is really weird and has wasted some of my time.

Also, after the Firefox update, now I cannot drag and drop a URL into a Bookmarks folder from the URL bar or whatever it's called after doing a Search with DuckDuckGo or with Google with the "Search and turn off Show search terms in the address bar on results pages option" turned off! I did not change any setting in Firefox to cause this issue.

I now wish I had not have updated Firefox! Please resolve dragging URL issue and hopefully whatever caused the audio problem will not occur again.

Although I have my Bookmarks Toolbar set to "Always Show," none of the bookmarks are visible (and therefore, they're not functional, either). I have tried refreshing Firefox (it just hangs on "almost done") and downloaded /reinstalled the application. I have no idea what to try next (Mac Desktop).

My bookmark toolbar totally lost all the bookmarks I had on it. It has some bookmarks that I have never marked to be on the toolbar now. How can I retrieve the bookmarks back to my tool bar? I went back to last week and that didn't help.

Several times I've seen Firefox bookmarks becoming lost, disorganized, or duplicated. The missing ones have typically been folders of bookmarks. The duplications have been typically of folders. The disorganizations have been folders ending up in a different position in the list, often at or near the bottom when that's not where I put them. What causes this, and can it be prevented?

bookmarks :: i cant save any new bookmarks when i click book marks all bookmarks appear normal on drop down menu but when i try to save or edit the location i cant find them to click on

Not sure whats going on here, been using FF for decades with no problems. I am saving bookmarks to various folders but recently noticed some were not in the folders I was sure I had saved them too. For example, in the screenshot attached I had saved the Rink Diary Bookings to my Bowls folder, but when I opened the folder later the bookmark was not shown. I did the Google search and checked what I could and most solution options were aimed at the Toolbar, which I didn't have a problem with. I then noticed some other bookmarks were no longer showing. I then saved a new Rink Diary Bookings link (now ending in '1') to a second folder so I knew which link was from each folder. This new bookmark also failed to show in the new folder. I somehow found a search button for the bookmarks and found both the bookmarks in the correct folders. (See attached) Can anyone advise how to get the bookmarks to show in, and open from, the actual folders? I am not very tech minded so any help is appreciated. I have copied the folder menu's in the attachment Thank you.

While this may sound silly, it does happen that I add bookmarks, but I might rush and forget to update/change the bookmark folder/path where to save it when I am in a hurry (and the page might end up saved, but not in a location I want, say, a news article that should be saved in "News" might end up in a "Development" bookmark path or vice-versa, depending on which path I last used to bookmark a page), or even forget where I saved it (if I did it some time ago for a "read/use/check/update later" type of thing and it is a generic article - and yes, I even have a "TODO" bookmark "directory").

While the Bookmarks windows dos have a search option (thank god!), it doesn't also show where I saved said bookmark (so that I can move, delete or do whatever to it). So please, in the Bookmarks window also add a column with the path where it is saved (obviously hidden by default), along with the URL, name, visit count, etc. I am sure code-wise, the effort is negligible, but it can help so much.

Hoping this comes true (*fingers crossed*), thanks in advance!

I have followed suggested links in ever variable circles to no avail... innumerable deletes, restarts, reinstalls etc, etc.... but still have NO ACCESS to my Bookmarks toolbar! I've worked way too long over such & would gladly forget my history... but remain unable to access the Bookmarks toolbar

Hi All

I use a PC, Windows 11. All my bookmark titles still show, but when I click nothing happens, does not open, does not go to new page, nothing! This is now the second time on two different PC'S. on the first, I reloaded FireFox, nothing changed, so I delete complete (uninstalled) and reinstalled a fresh one. Of course I lost all my bookmarks!! Now, the exact thing has happened on my main PC, and I do not want to loose all my bookmarks! I can't even export them to a different browser!

I just upgraded to the latest version of FF (137) and it seems I can no longer select a folder from my bookmarks tab and "open all". Why remove this useful feature?

I can't figure out which topic to use for this but I can't submit it without one.

When I click on the star icon in the address bar the star icon is filled in, and existing bookmarks do show with the filled-in star icon and they work. But I no longer get a dropdown where I can assign a folder, edit, tag, or delete an existing bookmark, and the pages I've tried to bookmark don't show up in Recently Bookmarked so they haven't been added. I don't know if it has something to do with the toolbar?

Nothing I can find online helps. The places.sqlite file in my profile is not read-only, and I refreshed Firefox (stupidly, before I took a screenshot of the pinned shortcuts on my New Tabs page) and that made no difference. The only extension I use is UBlock Origin. Changing profiles did not help. This is on my personal laptop and no organization controls my settings.

I stay up to date on Windows 11 and Firefox updates. I do use a VPN but it never interfered with bookmarking functionality before. (I see Firefox offers a free one now but I've got a couple of years left on my paid subscription).

I asked the community but got no replies. (I did "reply" to add more information which no longer applies, and I can't seem to delete the "reply".)

Thanks in advance for any help!

I have a new Windows 11 lap top and have been trying to make Firefox work the same as on my Windows 10 laptop. I looked at "Bookmarks import doesn't show bookmarks on title bar? " and tried to follow the instructions. The result is that the bookmarks toolbar contains both "Import bookmarks" and "Bookmarks menu" but not the actual Bookmarks Toolbar titles. The Library shows:

   *All Bookmarks                   (The asterisk is bold inside a square)
         Bookmarks Toolbar

   %Other Bookmarks           (% is actually folder emoji)

As you can see, I am going round in circles. I do not understand properly how bookmarks work. On my old Winows 10 laptop, I managed by trial and error to get something that I could use, but now I am mostly getting error.
