Hi! I need some troubleshooting help. Idk what happened, but I think it was a syncing issue in between the two browsers. I just plan on using just Firefox to hopefully prevent this bug in the future.

I originally have bookmark folders on my toolbar, but when I checked, the old folders were gone. Though everything in them was still in my toolbar, so it's a reaaally long "Show more bookmarks" drop down list. But when I check "Manage Bookmarks", the folders are still there. I tried exporting and re-importing the bookmarks but it didn't work. Here are some screenshots attached. Help?

Edit: After checking, it turns out my "manage bookmars" and toolbar are the same. My folders and bookmarks are there, but for some reason the contents are outside the folders. Is there a fix for this and how to prevent it?

Not sure whats going on here, been using FF for decades with no problems. I am saving bookmarks to various folders but recently noticed some were not in the folders I was sure I had saved them too. For example, in the screenshot attached I had saved the Rink Diary Bookings to my Bowls folder, but when I opened the folder later the bookmark was not shown. I did the Google search and checked what I could and most solution options were aimed at the Toolbar, which I didn't have a problem with. I then noticed some other bookmarks were no longer showing. I then saved a new Rink Diary Bookings link (now ending in '1') to a second folder so I knew which link was from each folder. This new bookmark also failed to show in the new folder. I somehow found a search button for the bookmarks and found both the bookmarks in the correct folders. (See attached) Can anyone advise how to get the bookmarks to show in, and open from, the actual folders? I am not very tech minded so any help is appreciated. I have copied the folder menu's in the attachment Thank you.

Cannot add bookmarks with Crl-D

Use to be able to use the Ctrl-D to save bookmarks, but for a while this doesn't work any longer. The work around is to open manage bookmarks, add a bookmark, it works, but gets tedious. Read the article on cannot add bookmarks.

There were multiple copies of places.sqlite with variations and two with the current date. Selected one of the two with the current date, opened to properties, the read-only was not checked already.

Found xulstore.json and deleted file.

Opened Firefox, all the bookmarks were gone, imported bookmarks, passwords, etc. from Chrome which I was also using.

After that, Ctrl-D to save bookmark still wouldn't work. Now I will try deleting Firefox and residual files in hopes of a fresh clean copy of Firefox that would work as intended.

I found social media sites wouldn't work under standard or strict setting: x.com, bsky.app, mastodon.social, linkedin.com. Facebook does work under strict setting.

I have another laptop, and no such issue with Firefox. I really liked and use firefox for many years. Recently other issues had been with cloudnet unable to verify caused me to switch to Chrome, but I'm hoping this next step of re-installating firefox would fix the issue I'm currently having.

Some of my bookmarks are gone AGAIN. This time adding .old to files and deleting others did not fix the problem, nor has restarting firefox. I can see that sites have blue stars, indicating that they are saved into bookmarks (such as "weather") that I can no longer see in my bookmarks menu. Trying to recover bookmarks does not work. I can see recent dates of bookmarks. I can see old firefox data on my desktop.

Bookmarks are a basic function of browsers. This is RIDICULOUS. Please fix this issue.

I have not had ANY UPDATES to my computer since yesterday. Yesterday all my bookmarks were there!

The "other bookmarks" button and the arrow left of it are unaffected by this

in the last couple weeks, every time I go into Firefox my bookmarks and bookmark toolbar are scrambled. (all messed up and out of order). I have to keep restoring from a good save file. How do I stop this from happening? I have even uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, but that hasn't helped. I have imported the good bookmark file that I saved.

Version 137.0 was installed today, when I rebooted my pc. I am grateful with the developers of Mozilla, who spend so much time to give us a good product (and I contribute every month with a small sum), but I was discombobulated, when I saw that my poor bookmarks, that I kept quite tidy since the beginnings of Firefox, have been thrown upside down.

Folders and separators have disappeared and I cannot figure out how the hundreds of my bookmarks are ordered in an apparently infinite list, where they appear several times.

Is there a remedy?

Is this a new bookmarks-policy ? If this is the case, I would have liked to be informed in advance. But, well, don't look an almost-gift horse in the mouth!
