Firefox Support Forum

Hello –– I recently updated Firefox for my MacBook Pro, and upon doing so, lost all of my bookmarks and add-ons, including Zotero, which is critical to my work as an academic.

Any advice for re-loading my bookmarks and Zotero add-on is greatly appreciated.

Latest update has trashed firefox. I cannot get my bookmarks menu listed. So I have to SO INCONVENIENTLY go to the 'library' to access my bookmark menu which always showed up on the left hand side of my screen. There is nothing now to allow me to do this. If I can't organize my bookmarks I might just have to find a new browser.

My old Lenovo broke down and I just installed Firefox on a new one. I thought it would be easy to just login to my Firefox account and sync the bookmarks to the new computer. NOT? After reading support articles about "sync", it seems that the only way to sync bookmarks is through accessing the old computer? Is this for real? Or is there a workaround??

I got an update to version 110.0.1 and on opening it, all my bookmarks, passwords, and such are gone. It seems to be asking me to start an entirely new install of Firefox and asks for the import of bookmarks from another browser (fortunately I use another browser). Am I missing someting? This isn't an update if that's what it does. I can't see any obvious way to fix it.

I updated to the latest Firefox version and each time restart and open a web page only to find that all my bookmarks have been deleted. Do you have a resolution for this?

I have reverted back to a previous version in interim and everything works fine.

I decided to change my OS, and before it, I clicked "Sync" in my Firefox account. When I installed another OS, I logged in my Firefox account. And... None of my data restored (bookmarks, passwords...). I did not make data export as a file because I trusted this deal to my Firefox account. How do I restore my data?

I upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10 on a new, blank m.2 drive (my computer didn't have a TPM until I added it) and my intent was to be able to access the Windows 7 OS as needed (old apps). I haven't been able to boot back to Win7 since the upgrade. I need the bookmarks from the old install. I can access the old drive. I did not export the bookmarks recently in the old OS. Is there a way to move the bookmarks to the new OS? Firefox was recently upgraded on Win7.

Hi Where can I find firefox bookmarks on a pc without having exported them first my pc failed and I have a backup of the computers file structure so I cannot open firefox on the old computer. Does anyone know which folder the bookmarks are stored in Thanks

Firefox updated today and all of my previous bookmarks are gone. How can I get these back? The latest backup on my computer is from 2020 so that is not an option. My browser information/bookmarks was working perfectly when I closed out last night. I need that information.

Has anyone noticed that the Bookmark's / Daily Links 'pointer' gets reset to top of the list after selecting a bookmark?

Seeing this issue on a PC with Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit.

I.e. (Example only) Say a user has 100 bookmarks on main toolbar [many bookmarks saved under Daily Links or under the ">>" icon] ...and user chooses any stored link/bookmark, say for example, ...approximately link/bookmark #50; that tab opens okay. After doing so, maybe user chooses to open another link in same listing nearby-say #51 bookmark in a new tab browser window (multitasking etc.), ...often now, user gets put to top of said list, to bookmark#1 (especially after ) selecting a saved bookmark by clicking on either the ">>" icon or selecting "Daily Links".

In my experience with Firefox, this action never reverted back to top of either list prior to latest 110.0 update (64bit). I haven't tried issue to see if repeated on Windows 10 or higher yet. Appreciate any insight or bug solution to this scrolling issue using bookmark toolbars.

Starting today, for some reason when I access my bookmarks, I have to start from the very top of all my lists of bookmarks. In the past when I accessed a bookmark, and then a clicked on the bookmark tab to access ANOTHER bookmark, my bookmark list would show where I had left off from the previous bookmark within that list. Now when I access a another bookmark after I had accessed a previous bookmark, my bookmark list starts from the very top of it instead of where I was previously within that bookmark list. Being I have many bookmarks, it is a real pain to have to constantly scroll down from the top of my bookmark list every time to access another bookmark. This peculiar situation just started today. In the past this would NOT happen when I accessed my bookmarks. Can someone please explain and help me? Thank you.

I browse many websites daily. I liked that Firefox would keep my progress when looking thru my bookmarks. After a update my bookmarks when open are back at the start or top of my bookmarks. So I have to scroll down every time to find where I left off. Is there a setting I need to set so the menu stays on the selected bookmarks or does not revert back to the top.

When going thru my bookmarks why does it jump to top of list when I go back to list. Very inconvenient when searching thru my bookmarks. Started with last update 110.

Hi Since the latest update of Firefox, if I am clicking on a bookmark at the bottom of my bookmarks list, when I then access the bookmarks list again the bookmarks list always returns to the top, so I have to scroll down again to the bottom, as my bookmarks list is quite long. It never did this before and would always remain at the same point in the bookmarks list when I opened them. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

The latest update has caused my bookmarks to always return to the top of the list instead of staying where I left off. I loose my place when checking a series of sites consecutively. I have to scroll down each time I want to use a bookmark. Highly annoying.

after scroling down in bookmarks menu (on toolbar) and selecting bookmark the list is coming back up. it was remembering position before last update and i would like it back. thanks in advance

For the first time this morning I discovered the following issue: I have a big list of sweepstakes bookmarks with a bookmark folder hierarchy, and Firefox does not remember the last view position of the bookmark side panel scroll bar. As a result, I have to scroll down and manually search the position myself. I expect Firefox to display everything as it was at the time it was last closed. Your help will be extremely appreciated. Microsoft Edge has been wanting me to make the switch, but besides the learning curve, I've been using Firefox for a number of years now, and would like to continue doing so. By the way, I believe the latest Mozilla Firefox update may have been the cause.
