When I try to save a new URL, Web Page, by clicking on the "Star" on the tool bar menu, then selection my existing folder for my chosen location it is not saved, at least most of the time. It is however saved under Recently Bookmarked and is also in Manage Bookmarks. I can force it to save by selecting Bookmarks Menu. It then is at the bottom of all my saved folder. I then can copy and paste into my folder of choice. What do I need to do to make it save to the folder of choice immediately?

Thanks, James

How do I display my bookmarks? They've disappeared and the 'Manage Bookmarks' is next to useless - not at all intuitive! Why make it so difficult????????? Why make such a change????????? I'm 73 and just want to plod-on as usual - I don't want to waste time with a form I don't understand!

I clicked on the bookmarks icon to open one up, and there's nothing there. where did my bookmarks go? It's been a week, maybe, since I last used the bookmarks menu

Pri vytvorení adresára v lište s odkazmi na web stránky sa adresár vytvorí na konci zoznamu. 1, nieje spôsob ako určiť poradie v zozname kde sú adresáre aj odkazy. Adresáre by sa mali automaticky radiť ako v stromovej štruktúre pc teda prve v poradí a za nimi voľné odkazy na weby. Adresáre majú nadradenú funkciu.Tvoria skupinu pre odkazy na stránky s podobným obsahom. Preto by mali byť pri vytvorení adresára radené na začiatok zoznamu a nie na konci. Pri 1000 odkazoch na stránky je to dlhý zoznam kým ho nájdem na konci aby som urobil drag and drop a preniesol na lištu z odkazmi do viditeľnej časti na browseri. Môže to niekto opraviť? Táto možnosť radenia adresárov nieje. Iba radenie odkazov podľa abecedy v zozname alebo iné možnosti na jednej úrovni pre všetky súbory. Ocenil by som radenie podľa typu teda adresáre spolu a odkazy spolu,či budú na začiatku alebo na konci teda poradie, a možnosť abecedného radenia pri zachovaní Typu súborov. Adresáre by mohli mať aj priradenú farbu. Ďakujem

Firefox has been my default browser for many years. Every update has made the program less user friendly. I can no longer ready access shortcuts and the number of tiles has been greatly reduced. Previously I had a row of shortcuts on the bookmark toolbar. They no longer show up. Sadly Google does everything I appreciated Firefox for. So Chrome is now my default browser. I have no idea why Mozilla decided to change their once great browser into a total loser.

Once upon a time, back in the dawn of history, we all remember "Netscape", the "Anti-explorer", which kept us all free from the micro$oft virus and also reasonably sane.

Back then, you could "bookmark" interesting stuff you found in a list of links. This was kinda handy for people like me who have a memory like dorey's (from finding nemo...)

Therefore, I'm wondering why the so-called "bookmarks" functionality in firefox is now completely useless ?

Due to it's completely useless nature, I ultimately have started a text file called "bookmarks.txt". When i need to bookmark something, i copy the dang address from my browser pane and paste it into the bookmarks.txt file.

It is somewhat clunky , but it is a hell of a lot better than the so-called functionality given in the browser.

Would be interested to get the community's feedback on this point.

Am I stupid, or, do I have a point ? And why is the bookmarking so useless anyway ? Let me know your opinions , folks.

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?

I realized that all the bookmarks I had saved for years are now missing when I search using the browser. I did find them in other locations, but how can I see specific bookmarks that are missing?

Roughly one third of my bookmarks all changed to sites I have visited recently. They still have the same labels, but when I click on them, they just take me to some random site I've visited recently.

Today's update (version 154.0, 18 Aug 2026), degraded the appearance of a bookmark menu that contains both left-to-right and right-to-left text.

I have bookmarks in both English and Hebrew text. When a bookmark menu contains both kinds, all of them used to be left-aligned, which made for a tight, easy-to-read. menu. But as of this version, the R2L text is right-aligned, so if the whole menu is a bit wide, there is a lot of empty space. See screenshot.

Also, the next-to-last line in the screenshot, the numbers to the LEFT of the text, not right.

Hi. The message "For quick access, place your bookmarks here on the bookmarks toolbar. Manage bookmarks..." has appeared at the top of my Firefox window. I don't think it's been there for more than a couple of days, so it must have been added by a recent update. I already have my bookmarks available just fine, so is there a way to get rid of the message? Thanks!

I've been having this problem for about 10 years. It was raised in this thread but never solved.

When I launch Firefox, several recent bookmarks that had been at the bottom of a folder have moved to the top of the folder.
