When I save the bookmarks to the toolbar they work fine but when I close and reopen firefox they bookmarks don't work. They are there but inactive and do not work. How do I save bookmarks so they open everytime I open firefox?

Is there a way to remove "recent bookmarks" from the book marks pull down menu? Or at least hide them. It causes a total lack of privacy when any and all bookmarks can be seen in full view. Seems a stupid thing to not be able to hide them. Other browsers only show book marks when you go to the folder they are in.

Here what should be improved: - remembers last accessed bookmark folder - bookmarks pages to recent bookmark folder that had been bookmarked to - exports bookmarks (the import function exists so then the user expects to export)

that would add a lot to firefox for android thus stop improving tab groups that are not really a priority than bookmark manager.

I clicked on the bookmarks icon to open one up, and there's nothing there. where did my bookmarks go? It's been a week, maybe, since I last used the bookmarks menu

I continuously have a problem trying to get the location scroll bar to execute when I bookmark an item. It never scrolls twice consecutively, and I have to keep opening and closing the scroll to get it to function properly. I bookmark several news articles, stories, etc. every day, and I get kinda snarly after awhile. Any relevant help would be welcome and appreciated. Thanks.

I am constantly building a default tabset of approx 10-15 tabs in my FF browser on my Macbook (in case something differs from FF on Windows.

I have a default tabset saved in my bookmarks. But when I add a new tab or rearrange their order and I go to save all tabs selected, is there a way to just over-write my current bookmark tabset? All I have been able to do is keep adding and "nesting" in my bookmarks which makes a mess - a dogs breakfast to the bookmarks manager set. Even when I select my bookmark default by name, it simply keeps the original and keeps "nesting" under it, which takes more time to babysit in cleaning it up.

Wish FF would spend more time on bookmarks and clean this up so I can simply "overwrite" rather than nesting and building a "tree of bookmarks"?

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

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.

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!

Hi, On Firefox for Android, when entering bookmarks and browse through to my wanted bookmark and here is the issue, when i close the bookmarks and open bokkmarks again the bookmarks path start from the beginning while i expected it puts me to the recent bookmark that i searched before.

Adjust this behaviour and make the bookmarks remember the last bookmark location and puts you right there in the start.

While in privacy mode to websites managed to become bookmarks. I did not intentionally bookmark them i have deleted both bookmarks, however both appear when i start typing a similiar web address. How do i get rid of them for good? (I have deleted history)

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?

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!

How do I display my bookmarks? They've disappeared and the 'Manage Bookmarks' is next to useless - not at all intuitive! Why make it so difficult????????? Why make such a change????????? I'm 73 and just want to plod-on as usual - I don't want to waste time with a form I don't understand!

As of yesterday, I lost access to my bookmark toolbar and have gone over Firefox instructions about how to recover it without any success. It sends me to the library link and everything I do from there doesn't work.
