Firefox Support Forum

When I click on the reveal button against a folder in my my sidebar it opens and shows the list of individual websites as expected but when I click on the chosen bookmark it disappears although the web page opens, then when I close the reveal button on the bookmark folder that folder disappears leaving a blank space. I can restore the full sidebat list b either clicking on a bookmark that is not in a folder or by clicking the home button in the browser.

The attached images show what I mean.

I am running Mac OS Monterey on a Mac Studio Max

There seems to be a bug or I have something set wrong.

I have tried redownloading Firefox but the same problem persists.

Help please

When I select "bookmark this tab", in the Firefox browser, I used to get the window allowing you to choose where to put the new bookmark. This 'bookmark location' window no longer appears so you don't know where the bookmark has gone. Prior to now, this feature has always worked fine.

I quit Firebox and reopened it but the problem remains.

I'm using Firefox 119.0.1 (64 bit) (the most current vers.) on a Macbook Pro running Ventura 13.3. I switched from Chrome to Firefox on this new Mac.

Please help!

Thanks very much.

Had to reinstall my pc over consistent error messages (thank you windows 10 for being the same pos system), and now all my bookmarks are gone, the bookmark backup folder is also empty, I have two years worth of personal and business related sites saved that will cripple me financially and mentally if I can't get them back.

Reaching out to Sync to try that, but looking for any kind of alternative fix here to recover the bookmarks.

I'm on MacOS Sonoma 14.0. Since the Firefox update to v. 119.0, I have had a really strange issue which is hard to describe, but I'll try.

In the Bookmarks Sidebar, whenever I click a folder, it disappears from view leaving a blank, empty space. The folder is still there, and everything in the folder is visible, but the folder itself is just a blank space. When the blank space is clicked on, the folder reappears and can still be selected, but the folder beneath it becomes invisible. It is almost as though the background and the foreground text and folder outline are the same color. The same thing occurs with History. The bookmarks themselves never become invisible, just the folders.

Has anyone seen this behavior? Does anyone have any idea how to fix it?

Thanks.

I just wanted to make my bookmarks from my new PC available on my old PC. I signed into sync on the new PC and it's imported a whole of of old links and totally messed up the setup on the machine. Has it merged the bookmarks or imported old saved bookmarks from my account? Is there a way of reversing this. I selected add another device and maybe it found the old computer on which I was logged into my Mozilla account.

Hello everyone, since my recent update on Mac OS Sonoma 14.0, my Firefox 119.0 (64-bit) bookmarks are becoming irresponsive.

When I hover over any bookmark in my Firefox side bar, it suddenly becomes invisible, and sometimes its entire folder disappear from the side bar from where it has previously been saved, as well as any next bookmark in the same folder. Yet it is still in the bookmark folder, but i have to relaunch Firefox to find it again!

Here are enclosed 2 screen captures. See the section called "A LIRE PRIO 2023-10" just below "00 sources" when I initially opened it on my side bar, it was visible, and when I clicked on any of the bookmarks saved in the folder "01 A LIRE PRIO 2023-10", the entire folder "01 A LIRE PRIO 2023-10" disappeared!

Yet if I go into my Firefox folder, it is still there. If i click on the next folder (from the lateral bar), it will disappear again!

Does anyone have had the same problem and found a solution?

Will appreciate as I had to move to google but does not enjoy it in the same way as Firefox (been on it since 2012!).

Thanking you all in anticipation.

I would like my Mozilla Firefox bookmarks to stay on the left side and my bookmark toolbar on the right side (just like it used to be). Now both Bookmark toolbar and Mozilla Firefox bookmarks are on the left side , and I can't even search a Mozilla Firefox bookmark using the search window.

Please help. Regards. E.C

Firefox for Mac - Version 119.0 (Latest update) Bookmarks Organization within the Sidebar When Sidebar open, I have the Bookmarks organized within Folders, sometimes there are other folders within a main folder… When I click on a Folder, it appears to disappear, leaving a blank space, but the contents are still shown. If I then click on another Folder, the one that disappeared, reappears… but now there is a blank space where I clicked on the second folder… Nothing actually is lost, but the name of the clicked Folder disappears, leaving a blank space… This is strange behaviour. I have Windows running under Parallels and the Windows Firefox still functions correctly without problems. On the Mac Firefox I have tried deleting all Bookmarks and re-importing, but doesn't help. I have also Refreshed Firefox and that does not help either. I do not really wish to delete and re-install the Firefox App. as I have many modifications, extensions, search engines etc. installed. Is this behaviour perhaps a quirk of Version 119.0??? Thanks for any help or advice. Colin

My bookmarks disappear when I click on them or they don't open at all. - please see attached images - I've already cleared the cache and restored the bookmarks three times but everything remains the same. I copy the exactly same link to Chrome and everything is working, therefore, it has nothing to do with the possibility of the addresses being corrupted. Can someone help me on this one? Thank you in advance.

Firefox in suddenly opening with unsolicited tabs for a folder in my Bookmarks, even though there is NO tick in the box for 'Open previous windows and tabs' in STARTUP; how can I stop that from happening ?

I recently uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it directly from the microsoft store as it was very slow (probably due to not being updated) and I am sad to see all my bookmarks and important information is gone. Is there any way I can restore it? Thank you in advance.

My browser was just updated today and now my Toolbar Bookmarks are missing from the toolbar. "Most Visited" with a gear is on the left and Other Bookmarks with hardly anything in it is on the far right. I have to go to Bookmarks at the top to access my Toolbar Bookmarks. This is not very handy. I put the bookmarks I need all the time on the toolbar.

Bookmarks toolbar is set to "Always Show". It was fine before the update so...
