Chosen solution

You can find some items like the bookmarks star in the "Page actions" drop-down list (3-dot icon at the right end of the location/address bar). You can right-click an item in the "Page actions" drop-down list to add its button to the location/address bar for easy access.

Hey there, the bookmark star is now in the URL bar! Next to the Pocket Button! Like in the attached screenshot below.

If you can't find all of your bookmarks and bookmark folders in Firefox Quantum (version 57), try this solution:

  1. Click on the Library 57 library icon icon on your Firefox toolbar.
  2. Click on Bookmarks, then click on Bookmarking Tools.
  3. Click on Add Bookmarks Menu to Toolbar.
    • A Bookmarks Menu Bookmark Menu icon (star on tray) icon will be added to your toolbar.
  4. Click on the new Bookmarks Menu icon. You should get the same Bookmarks Menu as in earlier Firefox versions.

Let us know if this solves the problem.

Hi, there is no star because you are using an old version (38) of Firefox. To update it to v57/58, open the 3-bar menu > Help > About Firefox. Alternatively, you can press the Alt key to bring up the main menu bar > Help > About Firefox. If it still won't update, you can download the latest version from https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/

If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you!

To what Firefox version have you updated  ?

According to your system details you have quite a few plugins, so you should be using a Firefox ESR version :

(scroll down to see what the latest version is)

Unless you have updated to Firefox release version 57 or 58 on another device ..... (?)
