hi, the following steps should get you back to the bookmarking structure you're familiar with :))

  • click on the 57 library icon library icon and go to bookmarks > bookmarking tools > add bookmarks menu to the toolbar.
  • now when you click the Bookmark Menu icon (star on tray) icon that's newly appearing on the toolbar, you'll get to the same bookmarks menu like in earlier versions...

Go to the Options Menu > Click on Customize > Add the bookmarks toolbar back.

Check or a bookmark backups from Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks, See the following links for more info: http://mzl.la/1BAQB3f https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/recover-lost-or-missing-bookmarks

Do you have multiple profiles or an Old Firefox Data Folder on your Desktop?

Does your profile in the Finder or Windows File Explorer appear to have a file called places.sqlite that has a recent date or is larger than 1MB?

Were you using Firefox Sync and if, so, did you have another device syncing or make any changes to your account?
