First, I am technologically illiterate, so my terminology will be imperfect. Until today, there was a second line in my Google browser that listed my favorite sites I visited daily. It was just below the Google Tab line (the very top line). That line is now gone and now I have to look up the web addresses in my bookmark thing off to the right. How can I get that favorite sites line thingy back?

When I logged in this morning my bookmarks toolbar was gone, along with the favorite start. I have googled and followed support articles and the only thing I was able to do is get the menu bar to show along with the the bookmark menu but customizing the toolbar.

When importing bookmarks they end up in Bookmarks Menu, cannot move to Other Bookmarks

I am trying to migrate from a windows 10 computer to a Windows 11 computer. I have installed Firefox on the new computer. I exported my bookmarks from the windows 10 computer to a HTML file. I then imported them to the Windows 11 computer. I thought the import hadn't worked but finally found them Bookmarks Menu folder under Other Bookmarks. When I tried to move them to the Other Bookmarks folder Firefox wouldn't allow it. I finally went to the Other Bookmarks folder in Bookmarks Menu and selected all the files there, and copied them to the clipboard. Since the Other Bookmarks folder was no longer available in the left column, I closed Library and opened a new Library. I then pasted the files I had stored into Other Bookmarks. That seemed to work. However, when I click Other Bookmarks in the upper right hand corner of Firefox all the files there have the wire frame globe for icons and don't work. If I go to the Other Bookmarks folder in Bookmarks, those bookmarks still work. The bookmarks aren't of much use if I can't access them from Firefox. I am writing this on my Windows 10 computer but both computers have the same version of Firefox.

In Windows 10, I could open Manage Bookmarks with one mouse click on Manage Bookmarks on the Bookmarks toolbar, and the bookmarks would open at the top of my organized list, with the Bookmarks Menu already displaying. One click! Fantastic!

Now, in Windows 11 I am unable to open Manage Bookmarks on the toolbar, as it doesn't exist, and does not exist in the Customize toolbar display either. Instead I must click on the "Show Your Bookmarks" icon on the Bookmarks toolbar, then click on Manage Bookmarks, then must scroll the results to the top, then click on Bookmarks Menu. This procedure, compared to how simple things were with Firefox, using Windows 10, is a real waste of valuable time.

Is there any way to open Manage Bookmarks, with Bookmarks menu displayed, with one click of an icon on the Bookmarks toolbar, as was the case with my Windows 10?

I have been with Mozilla since Netscape 1. Recently, I have been unable to add or delete a bookmark or folder. A number of previous bookmarks have lost their icons and their content. The Bookmark "Star" turns blue, indicating that it has been bookmarked. When I look for it in the designated folder it is not there. I try to edit garbled bookmark URLs by substituting the new URL - does not work. There are a number of folders for categories of bookmarks and I cannot delete them. What can be done?

Whenever you go to close a folder from the bookmark menu in the browser sidebar, having scrolled down due to a long list, the menu will not only close the folder but also make you click whatever was in that mouse position on the menu with the menu closed. This means closing a folder having scrolled down will cause you to potentially click open another folder or bookmark unintentionally. This is not an issue on the old bookmark menu, but using that isn't as convenient as the sidebar is.

I have done everything I can find to get my Firefox bookmarks menu working correctly in Windows 11. Every time I shut down and come back they are not working and I have to do a restore. The bookmarks are there but they are dead, inactive. I can do a restore and everything is happy, until I shut down and log back in.

I've done 2 clean new installs including deleting all the folders and files.

I've also done deleted remaining Program & Profile Folders (For a True Clean Install)

bold text how do i move bookmarks along the bookmarks tab

I have just bought a new computer. Got firefox working and I have bookmarks on the bookmarks tab below the search box.

I used to be able to move bookmark tabs along it and it was my main organisational method.

OR I would drag a url down from the search bar to put it on the bookmark tab below

neither of these methods work any longer and it is a real problem.

I cannot think of a worst thing you could have done.

Help how do i move a bookmark along the bookmark tab, or move a url to the bookmark tab, or move those bookmarks which I can't see to the visible section below the search bar

To eliminate multiple problems (including disappearance of bookmarks) in desperation I uninstalled and cleared out all remnants of FF, then installed a new FF. Fortunately I had recently imported all the stuff FF more recently lost into MS Edge so I used the FF feature to import from MS Edge. However, every effort to import my bookmarks failed. So I used MS Edge's ability to create a HTML file of my bookmarks and then in FF used the "import a HTML file" feature to get them into FF. However, FF fails to recognize my bookmarks as bookmarks. It lists them in a "Favorites Bar" which cannot be strewn horizontally across the top of my screen as did my bookmarks in the past nor be viewed as bookmarks.

So HOW can I get FF to change the "Favorites" into Bookmarks?

In the tiny image I've uploaded, IF it can be read, the Bookmarks selections are "empty"

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.
