Firefox Community Forum

When I click to save a bookmark, the menu that allows you to select the folder to save it to is no longer being displayed. If I click the save bookmark option again, it gives the option to edit the bookmark like it has always done. The bookmark menu then pops up and shows the bookmark is saved in whatever folder you had saved a bookmark in previously. I am on a desktop using windows 11. This has been happening for the last couple of days. I have shutdown the computer and also tried restarting but am still not able to see the selection box when saving a bookmark. I am also current on firefox updates and windows updates.

why did you destroy the existing bookmark structure and replace it with something that makes no sense. I have no idea from where you obtained the url's for the stuff that's in bookmark's now. I also do not look forward to having to re-create all of the bookmarks I had in place. I won't be doing that on Mozilla! R Crider

I have been with Mozilla since Netscape 1. Recently, I have been unable to add or delete a bookmark or folder. A number of previous bookmarks have lost their icons and their content. The Bookmark "Star" turns blue, indicating that it has been bookmarked. When I look for it in the designated folder it is not there. I try to edit garbled bookmark URLs by substituting the new URL - does not work. There are a number of folders for categories of bookmarks and I cannot delete them. What can be done?

I am unable to bookmark anything. Some suggestions are to open a new table then type about: profile and then hit restart. When I do that DuckDuck then searches profile.

After the last few Firefox updates, my bookmarks will not work at all. I have never had these issues before the last few updates, but they're quite aggravating. Is there an easy way to fix this issue where it does not happen again?

I have organized my bookmarks into various directories & sub-directories. On occasion, these directories &/or sub-directories 'migrate' if I'm not precise with my cursor movements. Is there a search function I can use without having to go through each directory/sub-directory one-by-one?

To eliminate multiple problems (including disappearance of bookmarks) in desperation I uninstalled and cleared out all remnants of FF, then installed a new FF. Fortunately I had recently imported all the stuff FF more recently lost into MS Edge so I used the FF feature to import from MS Edge. However, every effort to import my bookmarks failed. So I used MS Edge's ability to create a HTML file of my bookmarks and then in FF used the "import a HTML file" feature to get them into FF. However, FF fails to recognize my bookmarks as bookmarks. It lists them in a "Favorites Bar" which cannot be strewn horizontally across the top of my screen as did my bookmarks in the past nor be viewed as bookmarks.

So HOW can I get FF to change the "Favorites" into Bookmarks?

In the tiny image I've uploaded, IF it can be read, the Bookmarks selections are "empty"
