Bookmarks not working
My bookmarks toolbar is showing, but it's empty. All of my bookmarks are gone.
I went to a websites and attempted to add it to my bookmarks toolbar, but Firefox failed to add it to my toolbar.

Hi johnaukerman, do you still have this issue? Normally my suggestion would be the following:
First, if you haven't already, please do a normal shutdown and/or restart of your system. Restarting Windows can help by freeing up locked files, completing any deferred updates, and resolving temporary file permission issues.
Next, if Firefox still has bookmark problems, could you let us know what you get when you run the "Verify Integrity" diagnosis and repair function. That's here:
Open Firefox's Troubleshooting Information page using any of these methods:
- "3-bar" menu button > Help > More Troubleshooting Information
- (menu bar) Help > More Troubleshooting Information
- type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
Near the bottom, there is a section titled Places Database -- that's the file which stores history and bookmarks. Click the button labeled Verify Integrity. There may be a 10-15 second delay before results appear.
If all is well, the report that appears below the button should start with:
> Task: checkIntegrity + The places.sqlite database is sane + The favicons.sqlite database is sane
Does yours say the two database are "sane" or something else? You can select and copy the report, and then paste it into a reply for review and comment.

My bookmarks stopped working about five days ago. I shut down my computer every night and restart every morning. I hav3e restarted as well of course shutting down Mozilla as well which I use as my primary browser. My Verify Integrity Report Says something else Other than "sane". Here is the report:
Places Database Integrity
> Task: checkIntegrity - Unable to fix corruption, places.sqlite will be replaced on next startup > Task: checkCoherence - The task queue was cleared by an error in another task. > Task: expire - The task queue was cleared by an error in another task. > Task: vacuum - The task queue was cleared by an error in another task. > Task: stats - The task queue was cleared by an error in another task. > Task: _refreshUI - The task queue was cleared by an error in another task.

According to that report, when you quit and restart Firefox, it will build a fresh places.sqlite file (using your last automatic bookmark backup). Does it work?
