I cannot figure out how to export my bookmarks from Mozilla Account. On the desktop browser when I open "Manage Bookmarks" and select Phil's Bookmarks, I am able to export the bookmarks from the Mozilla account.

The resulting html export file does not contain the bookmarks from Mozilla Account. There also does not seem to be a way to export those bookmarks from your online Mozilla Account interface.

How do I export the bookmarks from my Mozilla Account?

Thank you Philip Rittscher

Am I understanding this correctly?

HTML backup (bookmarks) doesn't support tags and annotations, but JSON backup does, and JSON backup doesn't preserve the website favicons, but HTML backup does?  

So, what I can do, is restore my (saved) bookmarks using JSON backup, then restore the HTML backup, this would get my tags and annotations, and the website favicons back? But the downside, I will need to remove duplicates?

My PC froze and had no choice but to reload win 10. After doing so I had the choice to download win 11 for free which I did. When I download Firefox all of my bookmarks were missing. I have tried to follow your instructions to retrieve them i.e. Troubleshooting... Application Basics ... Profile Folder...Open Folder... which opened >>> C:\Users\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\42o9xo83.default-release . Sadly, I am not a Teckie and I do not have a clue what the next move is to get my bookmarks back.

Can you please help me to get my bookmarks back. Thank you MM

PS... (I have deleted my username for security)

FF Version 124.0.2 Thank you for your time and help.

When I'm saving a bookmark, I have a choice with one click between the last seven folders that were used to save bookmarks previously. Where can I increase that number to however many fit my screen (i.e. define another number by myself?)

I would also be happy to remove the "Bookmarks toolbar," "Bookmarks menu" and "Other bookmarks" shortcuts that stick at the top of that same menu, as I never use them and they only take space. Only "Other bookmarks" might come into use very rarely, if I have no idea how to classify a certain bookmark and I decide to temporarily put it there.

I'm on OpenSuse Leap 15.6 with KDE Plasma 5.27.11, Mozilla Firefox 128.5.1esr

I am getting the following error message when using Firefox. The bookmarks and history system will not be functional because one of Firefox's files is in use by another application. Some security software can cause this problem. I cannot see my bookmarks or add new ones. I followed the directions in articles about this problem and they did not. help. I decided to uninstall Firefox and l re-installed it from scratch and i still get the same error message.

Been trying to retrieved misplaced bookmark folders not bookmarks themselves in the Bookmarks Library with no success even going down several sub-levels; Would be nice if there were a search function, but will take a step-by-step solution. Thanks!

In your previous version of Firefox, I could click on "Bookmarks" above the search bar to see all of my bookmarks listed. Is that capability still available? I don't want my bookmarks showing in a toolbar. Thank you.

Just as the summary says, Used to have an icon that I put under the "hamburger" menu on the bookmarks toolbar that opened the bookmarks menu. Can't remember how I got it there. Can someone help me get it back.

I signed up for a free trial of PC tuneup on Aol. After I ran Pc Tuneup I was logged out of FireFox. I signed back into FireFox, but all of my Internet shortcuts and bookmarks will not work.

I've tried the "verify integrity" fix and got the results shown in the screenshot below. I've restarted my mac, I've shutdown and started my mac with a hard boot and the icons still show up like globes.

I recently added the "Display Autoplay" extension. I can't seem to figure out how to get the icon to show in the tool bar. See Attached acreen shot. That's assuming that this extension icon can be added to the tool bar. I look forward to anyone's comments. Thanks

Today, as a change, when I open a webpage from the bookmarks toolbar, the new page does not include the toolbar - to get to the toolbar, I have to open a new tab or restart - is there a way to fix this in Settings?

Although I saw now your warning to create recovery keys. I was unaware in past. Ha dto change laptop and browser didn't let me login by gmail. I created password and saved in firefox itself.Please help if possible to recover bookmarks in my account
