Hello. I got a new phone and have lost my Firefox favorites/bookmarks. How do I find and restore them?

Please send response to [email removed]@gmail.com

Thanks

Buried in this announcement is the following statement:

"Meanwhile, new features like Tab Groups and enhanced bookmarks now provide built-in ways to manage reading lists easily."

Is this a yet to be announce new feature because as far as I can tell the bookmark implementation has not changed in years. However, I would welcome some "enhancements" as the current implementation is quite clunky.

Thoughts, anyone?

I do not want "recently bookmarked" to appear with my Bookmarks. How can I remove it? Right-clicking and changing the "browser.bookmarks.showRecentlyBookmarked" preference no longer work.

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)

I am using the version 115.20.0esr (64-bit) and have noticed I have links in my bookmarks, that are either from other bookmark folders but I never copied them over, or I have new links that I never clicked to be saved? I have deleted those I found but some more keep popping up?

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?

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.

Is there a setting so that bookmarks, when accessed in a folder, will always sort by name. It appears that every time you add new bookmarks to a folder they are added to the bottom of the folder bookmark list and not listed alphabetically. Thanks

I have accumulated a LOT of bookmarks over the years. I want to streamline it and delete several so I have room to add more but it will not delete them. How do I go about deleting the bookmarks I want and adding more that I do want? It's very frustrating

This is a suggestion on how to delete Bookmarks Unfortunately when backing up bookmarks, then restoring them, this results in many duplications. To be effective there should at least be an option whether or not to accept a duplication. Otherwise the result, in reality becomes unmanageable.

To overcome much of the effort just select what is superfluous and use the Delete key.

An organized Bookmarks menu (using folders) can really make the Internet a place to find anything later that has value in the moment.

I've been using Library techniques for over 40 years. Microsoft's Favorites were my first introduction. Hopefully FF will tend to be very similar. What now exists is difficult to use in a number of ways.

I reinstalled windows yesterday. When I installed firefox and signed it, everything was fine. However, this morning, it seems to have removed 80% of my bookmarks. When I try to restore from the bookmarks yesterday, it just gives me the ones that I have this morning. I had tons and tons of resource bookmarks for my work that would be almost impossible to re-find in some cases due to the current state of search engines. Is there any way to salvage them? It seems like sync believes they never existed, but it DID sync them yesterday??? Please help.
