Firefox Community Forum

Have downloaded the Foxfire browser onto a new desktop and I've signed into my account. I need to see the bookmarks on the homepage as I did on the first desktop. I can see them all, and well organized, in the "backstage", when I click on manage bookmarks. Can you help me get them on the home page?

Using “Manage Bookmarks”: In each of my folders I sorted the bookmarks alphabetically. When I return to that folder, the bookmarks are once again unsorted. How do I make them remain sorted?

When I creat a new bookmarks they are not automatically put in alphabetical order but instead are placed in the ned. Why not put them in order when they are made? Anyway, I tried to use the option that allows me to sort bookmarks alphabetically but nothing happens. This used to work but not now. I am using 137.0.1 (aarch64)

I have attached an image to show what I mean.

Please help me restore bookmarks. As stated, the support suggestions do not work because "manage bookmarks" link does not work and Library does not show at all -- not even a blank page.

I closed down my computer last night and after restart again, the Firefox page with shortcuts are gone. I've looked for information on this but there's no link to shortcuts that I can find to help restore these sites. Never had this happen before and it's been years. Thoughts on where/what to do to restore?? Thanks. N Weaver

When I open the Manage Bookmarks --> Import Bookmarks --> Browse I have no listed backups, even though I can see them in File Manager \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\c4i4a2zg.default\bookmarkbackups folder. I have copied the JSON file from my laptop which has not lost them but cannot select a folder/file location to import them, same for doing it via a HTML file.

I am stuck, thinking I may have to uninstall and then reinstall Firefox and then sync again.

My bookmarks and favicons keep disappearing. Yesterday they disappeared, so I rebooted my computer and the bookmarks came back, but not the favicons. I had to click on each bookmark to get the favicon to load, but even that didn't work on each one (and no, I am not going to click on every single bookmark I have, that would be ridiculous!). This has happened several times this month. I was hoping the last update would fix it, but nope, still happening. Currently using 137.0.1

Hi! I need some troubleshooting help. Idk what happened, but I think it was a syncing issue in between the two browsers. I just plan on using just Firefox to hopefully prevent this bug in the future.

I originally have bookmark folders on my toolbar, but when I checked, the old folders were gone. Though everything in them was still in my toolbar, so it's a reaaally long "Show more bookmarks" drop down list. But when I check "Manage Bookmarks", the folders are still there. I tried exporting and re-importing the bookmarks but it didn't work. Here are some screenshots attached. Help?

Edit: After checking, it turns out my "manage bookmars" and toolbar are the same. My folders and bookmarks are there, but for some reason the contents are outside the folders. Is there a fix for this and how to prevent it?

Not sure whats going on here, been using FF for decades with no problems. I am saving bookmarks to various folders but recently noticed some were not in the folders I was sure I had saved them too. For example, in the screenshot attached I had saved the Rink Diary Bookings to my Bowls folder, but when I opened the folder later the bookmark was not shown. I did the Google search and checked what I could and most solution options were aimed at the Toolbar, which I didn't have a problem with. I then noticed some other bookmarks were no longer showing. I then saved a new Rink Diary Bookings link (now ending in '1') to a second folder so I knew which link was from each folder. This new bookmark also failed to show in the new folder. I somehow found a search button for the bookmarks and found both the bookmarks in the correct folders. (See attached) Can anyone advise how to get the bookmarks to show in, and open from, the actual folders? I am not very tech minded so any help is appreciated. I have copied the folder menu's in the attachment Thank you.

Use to be able to use the Ctrl-D to save bookmarks, but for a while this doesn't work any longer. The work around is to open manage bookmarks, add a bookmark, it works, but gets tedious. Read the article on cannot add bookmarks.

There were multiple copies of places.sqlite with variations and two with the current date. Selected one of the two with the current date, opened to properties, the read-only was not checked already.

Found xulstore.json and deleted file.

Opened Firefox, all the bookmarks were gone, imported bookmarks, passwords, etc. from Chrome which I was also using.

After that, Ctrl-D to save bookmark still wouldn't work. Now I will try deleting Firefox and residual files in hopes of a fresh clean copy of Firefox that would work as intended.

I found social media sites wouldn't work under standard or strict setting: x.com, bsky.app, mastodon.social, linkedin.com. Facebook does work under strict setting.

I have another laptop, and no such issue with Firefox. I really liked and use firefox for many years. Recently other issues had been with cloudnet unable to verify caused me to switch to Chrome, but I'm hoping this next step of re-installating firefox would fix the issue I'm currently having.
