Instead I have to click 'Bookmarks' at the menu line on top, then 'Bookmark this page' on the drop down menu. This is cumbersome. Incidentally, to the right of the 'Bookmark this page' entry a short-cut is shown: Ctrl+R rather than Ctrl+D. If I try Ctrl+R, it just reloads the page (as it should, according to the way it has always done in the past)...

Can you try to start Firefox in Safe Mode to see if Firefox works properly with no error? You can start Firefox in Safe Mode below:

  • Windows/Mac: Go to Help > Restart with add-ons disabled
  • Linux: Run firefox -safe-mode in the Terminal/Konsole

If Firefox opens up fine with no problems, it's probably one of your extensions that's causing the issue. You can re-enable your add-ons one by one until you find the one that causes the issue upon being re-enabled.

I have the same problem and I discovered that it was the language pack for Norwegian (Norsk bokmål) that caused the problem.
