I opened my bookmarks today to find out that all my bookmarks are showing the same web address (Chevrolet.com). And when I went to Recovery, I only found the backup that Firefox did today with the single web address for all my bookmarks. Firefox was updated to version 120 on 11/21/2023.

Hello,

I have a problem retrieving my favorites/bookmarks. I changed computers (all of them, even the hard drives).

I would like to recover my favorites/bookmarks but cannot do so because I am asked to look for them in folders that I no longer have, because they are on the old computer.

Does Firefox not save any information about my favorites/bookmarks? Have I lost them all? Do I have to redo my whole life?

Sincerely, Shinsengumy

What has happened to all of my Task Bar / Tool Bar? As of today, Sunday Nov. 26th, everything is gone. In addition the browser itself looks "different" some how.

Unless I'm crazy, Firefox used to import the tags in an exported bookmarks HTML file. I used this to move bookmarks between profiles. What happened to that capability?

From the main opening screen on the right hand side ( Pic1 ) click on the three horizontal lines Tab. Go down to "Bookmarks" listing (Pic2) Click on " Bookmarks " to open and it gives you Pic3.

At the bottom of Pic3 is " Recent Bookmarks " and it lists ALL the previous bookmarks that have been opened.

Question - I do not want that list displayed, How / Where do you disable it in Firefox ?

Other people who have posted this question have had individuals just saying " Right click " on the bookmark and delete. That not only deletes it from the recent bookmarks list BUT also from the Actual Bookmarks!

So.... not a good idea.

I have spent over an hour searching the internet and the Firefox settings trying to figure it out.

Please help. Many thanks David

Hi - I just reset my PC and trying to restore Firefox. I saved the default release folder (qejikze4.default-release-1669319412153) which contains the latest bookmarks in the "bookmarkbackups" folder. I tried to just replace the bookmark file in the new install (how I previously transfered them), but I can't find the files in the latest V.120 version. Any suggestions on how I can do it?

Thanks

Peter

Hi.

Is there a way to display a column in the bookmark manager (Ctrl+Shift+O) which would show in which folder each particular bookmark is?

Is there a way to search for bookmarks (in the bookmark manager or the bookmark sidebar (Ctrl+B)) by specifically excluding certain (bookmark) folders (e.g. MySessions, Save for Read Later, BSP2 trash folder, etc)?

If the above is not available, please kindly consider those ever since important features.

Thank you very much :)

Please help me restore my bookmarks and history - the update seems to have wiped everything clean. PLUS I have multiple Firefox icons appearing in my dock. MacBook Pro.

Hello, I recently downloaded Firefox and transferred all my data from Chrome to Firefox. Everything transferred well and for a day all my bookmarks were visible at the top of the page. Then I turned off bookmarks to only show on a new tab, and then later realized that the bookmarks were not being displayed on the new tab. And even when I turned bookmarks to always show on all tabs the bar is there but nothing is displayed. All my bookmarks are still in the Firefox Library and I can save new bookmarks to the library, but the bookmarks bar above still remains empty. Clicking Import and Backup in the Library and clicking Restore hasn't returned the bookmarks to the bookmarks bar. Does anyone know how to fix this?

I cannot figure out how to export my bookmarks from Mozilla Account. On the desktop browser when I open "Manage Bookmarks" and select Phil's Bookmarks, I am able to export the bookmarks from the Mozilla account.

The resulting html export file does not contain the bookmarks from Mozilla Account. There also does not seem to be a way to export those bookmarks from your online Mozilla Account interface.

How do I export the bookmarks from my Mozilla Account?

Thank you Philip Rittscher

I have some javascript bookmarks (basically they just insert the current date in an appropriate place in the URL and then open it. Example at the bottom).

Both just clicking on these bookmark or left clicking and "open in new tab" or "open in new window" works as expected, that is,

• the computed URL is displayed in the address bar
• and the page is displayed.

So, fundamentally the javascript bookmarks work as I expect.

Now my problem: If I put this bookmark in a folder (either alone or together with other bookmarks), left click on the folder and select "open all bookmarks" it will open a new tab for each entry and the normal bookmarks are loaded in the tab as expected. But the tab corresponding to the javascript bookmark opens, and

• displays the javascript code (and not the computed URL)
• shows a blank page

What do I have to do that "open all bookmarks" also execute the javascript?

Example bookmark: javascript:function%20url(){%20%20%20%20%20%20var%20date%20=%20new%20Date();%20%20%20%20%20%20var%20y%20=%20date.getFullYear();%20%20%20%20%20var%20m%20=%20date.getMonth()+1;%20%20%20%20%20var%20d%20=%20date.getDate();%20%20%20%20%20%20if(m%20<%2010){m%20=%20'0'%20+%20m;}%20%20%20%20%20if(d%20<%2010){d%20=%20'0'%20+%20d;}%20%20%20%20%20%20var%20date%20=%20"/"%20+%20y%20+%20"/"%20+%20m%20+%20"/"%20+%20d;%20%20%20%20%20%20return%20'http://www.gocomics.com/calvinandhobbes'+%20date%20+'/';%20%20}%20window.open(url(),"_parent");

hi> run running win 10 pro64; just downloaded firefox fresh install. When "bookmarks" selected from drop down the software hangs and sometimes i get "unresposive". i have deleted places and favicons then reboot without joy.

Wanted to export some bookmarks, and couldn't figure out why (latest Firefox) Bookmarks "Library" was missing relevant buttons/menus. (Screenshots attached.)

After testing, found they actually are there, but have have almost no contrast vs background - that is when "Manage Bookmarks" is called from a Private window. But things look fine when called from a Standard window. (No extensions; same in Safe Mode.)

Can anyone advise?

A simple workaround is to bring a standard window to the front first, but am curious if this is Firefox on all systems? Only FF Linux? Only the particular (default) settings of my Linux Mint 20.3 Cinnamon installation, and display? Not even sure a Bookmark management window is ever meant to assume the theme of the foreground window (here Private browsing's dark).

Thank you.

I seem to have lost all of my bookmarks and passwords associated with my application, even though the message before I refreshed/restarted the application said that it would keep that important information, just remove things like themes and add on extensions. What do I do? I tried to go to manage bookmarks first, and under the import option, it says how many tabs were bookmarked or saves, or something, but when I go to click to restore it, it says it cannot be restored. I feel like its somewhere still there, and I really need some of that information. Any help is appreciated, thank you

I often use the cync, as its very a usefull tool, for when my pc crashes and I have to re-install windows. What is a real pain though, is even when I have the latest version of fire fox installed , after cync has completed, I stll get back many book marks that I have deleted well be before my last recync and with an older version of firefox. Which i find to be a real pain.

Would it not be possible to change the way cync works, ie, you cold add a button, words to the effect "cync from online to you", in that way, I know I am getting the book marks and data I sent up there last time, I cync-ed

Or to cync your data, when wishing to put all your latest bookmarks offline, would it not be possible to "clear online bookmars and data.

Anys I hope this helps you to understand the problem

Many Thanks

I understand that the "Bookmarks Menu" Icon (see attached pic) can be used and then: 2) "Manage Bookmarks" can be selected (to get to the "Manage Bookmarks" <selection> screen).

But is there a 1-click Icon solution to access "Manage Bookmarks" (other than the keyboard one)? Or is there a link address that would access the "Manage Bookmarks" screen directly?

Hello, I have tried all the results I have found here for fixing this issue and it still happens on a fully patched Mac. Also, unable to use the restore function as gives me the 'Unable to process the backup file' and it does not allow me to import a html backup file. I've also fully uninstalled and re-installed many times which result with the same problem. I've had this happen many dozens of times. This started happening maybe few months two ago.

Thanks

I had hundreds of bookmarks. One week ago Microsoft Tech was on my computer and when finished had deleted apps including Firefox. When this happened my bookmarks (website pages) disappeared. These were specific pages I needed to save for the book I am writing. Is there a way to recover them? I tried the fix that is listed on the site, but it isn't applicable. I exclusively use Firefox and Duck Duck Go. Help!! Help!!
