How can I find an Accidentally Nested Bookmarks Folder within a Structure of Bookmarks Folders?

Abandonment of Pocket is pushing me back to use of my Firefox Bookmarks Tree.

After a long period of maintenance on my Firefox Bookmarks Folders within the "Bookmarks Menu" I accidentally moved a folder named "Music" into some other folder. I've checked the folders which contain nested folders which are near to where the "Music" Folder should be but cannot find the "Music" folder.

It seems that Firefox Browser ver. 39.0.1 (aarch64) on my M4 MAX MacBook Pro 16" running macOS Sequoia 15.5 makes it easy to search for and to find a bookmark, but not its location within the folder structure in which the bookmark is located. I need to see that folder location so that I can move the folder "Music" back to the top level within the "Bookmarks Menu."

What facility is provided by Firefox for me to perform this search?

How to remove unlinked labels from bookmark organization ?

Deleting accumulated labels for deleted bookmarks

Good day,

I organize my bookmarks progressively, categorizing them by folders and labels. The labels are stored (libraries - above all the bookmarks) within their respective folder "labels". I deleted some bookmarks a few days ago and noticed that I am unable to delete the labels which have accumulated and been automatically recorded in the "Labels" folder.

How can I delete these numerous labels that are no longer linked to any bookmarks ?

Thank you for your responses and suggestions.

In latest version of firefox for android, 138.0.4 (Build #2016091471), when i touch the bookmarks menu an image flashes up too fast to see. I videoed the screen,slowed down replay and found the image is of a folder with a fox inside and the words "no bookmarks yet" which makes no sense as i have hundreds of bookmarks. Its irritating, how do i stop it?

I'm in a messy situation right now

  1. I have two Windows installs with two separate installations of Firefox
  2. They are both different versions, one is the latest version and one is an extended support release: "115.23.1esr". I don't think that would really matter, just in case


Let's start. At the time, both installs with my bookmarks were the exact same

On one of my installs of Windows, I organized my bookmarks. I also put existing folders in new folders

And I thought that Firefox would synchronize my bookmarks with my other install. But it didn't happen.... at all! My bookmarks were the exact same as before... and still are!


  1. One install is organized but not completely up to date
  2. The other isn't organized and I've added a couple new bookmarks to it over time because of this stupid situation

What can I do here? And can I prevent this from happening in the future?

I can't depend on my bookmarks if it's not going to sync at all. It could be a malfunction on my end but I don't know at this point

'Wrote this question from my second install with the 115.23.1esr version'

Hello!

The bookmarks column tree, to the left, has disappeared when I start Firefox. I must press ctrl+B to get it back and do so every time I restarted Windows.

This problem occurred recently. Previously it was visible every time I started Firefox.

Do you know how I can fix it or is it a small bug…

(I use Firefox with Swedish language)

Regards Carl

Firefox mobile version 138 on Samsung Galaxy A14 5G

For years I've had my bookmarks arranged in a specific order. The day after the most recent Firefox update I discovered that my bookmarks have somehow been rearranged in alphabetical order.

What caused this to happen and how do I prevent it from happening again?

My bookmarks previously would be displayed on the left of the screen when I start Firefox. For some reason someone thought it would be an improvement to force me to use another click to show my bookmarks. Forcing the user to make more clicks is NEVER a good design choice. There seems to be no setting for getting my bookmarks displayed by default. Now there is just a setting whether or not to show a "sidebar" with a button I must click to show the bookmarks. Bring back my bookmarks please, or add a setting to allow me to get them back.

Thanks.

So I'm new to Firefox, and I added some shortcuts to the main tab, using the "+" button. But then after a few minutes it disappeared, when I wanted to add more. I set 4 rows of shortcuts and I have a lot of space left for them. What do I do to bring this button back? I tried deleting a shortcut but it didn't appear.

I just updated my Firefox app and it rearranged all my bookmarks. I would love to go in and resort them back to how they were before, but the only options I have on mobile are automatic sorting of alphabetical or chronological. I don't know if the manual sorting option was removed, but if it hasn't I'd like to know how to acess it. Thank you!
