I went to save a bookmark in a folder and saw the folder was missing. Then I noticed some things didn't seem right so I tried putting folders in the right place. That is when I noticed that when I moved one folder, several others would just move somewhere else! I could move one folder down in a list, then some - but not all - would jump to a new place in the order. An important folder is missing. So, what causes this to start happening? Also, how can I recover my missing bookmarks from Windows Backup? And is there any way to know which bookmarks and folders were deleted? I have recently added some important ones, so I don't want to delete the existing ones and restore the old ones, nor do I want to simply restore the old ones in the existing hierarchy and then have gazillions of duplicates. Explanations and help is appreciated. Thanks!

When I select bookmarks there's a long list of "recent bookmarks" listed before I get to "Manage Bookmarks" at the bottom. Can I keep "Recent Bookmarks" from appearing?

Very long-standing issue that keeps getting closed without resolution. My bookmarks won't stay sorted in the Bookmark Menus folder. The last solution I saw is a broken link having to do with corrupt 'Places'. Doesn't work anyway. I only have another device syncing with Firefox and not very often because I seldom use that laptop. Always this desktop.

I do have a lot of bookmarks over the years and it just keeps getting worse. If I Manage Bookmarks and sort them, they only stay sorted as long as I open that window separately. When I close it, the bookmarks are unsorted again. When will Firefox fix this? It's leaving a mess that is making my bookmarks unusable. When I click on that tab, I expect to see a bunch of folders, then files. Instead, I see files, then folders somewhere in the middle, mixed with other folders I don't even use, then a bunch more files. Sort by name doesn't show up as an option if I right click in the middle of all the files I see.

I have tried to delete those files, but they won't stay deleted. It's pulling them from somewhere, but I don't know where that 'somewhere' is. Does anybody have an idea how to contact Firefox tech support for an answer? Nobody seems to know what's going on with this issue. I won't list all my bookmarks, because some are more personal than others. This is just an idea. Please be nice. I've been using Firefox forever and a day.

When I click on the Bookmark tab and move my cursor down the list, I used to be able to hover over a bookmark and a second later I would get a small "pop-up" that would have the complete URL in it. Lately, if I hover over a bookmark, I still get the small window, but it is blank. I've had this issue for several months, thinking that an update would fix the problem, but it hasn't. I have the current version of Firefox. The image attached shows a screenshot of the issue. I am hovered on "Craigslist". You can see the blank "pop-up" as indicated by the arrow. This is on a desktop version, by the way.

Hello, I have already googled and found two sets of instructions for doing this via a userChrome.css file. But I could not get either to work.

So am I doing something wrong or has the code changed? Or alternatively, is there another method for enabling the 'edit URL' box within the add / edit bookmarks editor?

Here's what I did: I changed the about:config setting: toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets to true

I created a folder named "chrome" within my profile folder (the same profile folder that contains, for example, "places.sqlite").

Inside the chrome folder I placed a file named "userChrome.css" (and yes the file extension is "css" and not, for example, txt).

However, placeing either of the following two pieces of code inside this userChrome.css file did nothing (and yes Firefox was restarted after each change).

1st code:

/*** Reveal URL box in Add/Edit Bookmark drop-down ***/

1. editBMPanel_locationRow[collapsed="true"]{

 visibility: visible !important;

}

2nd code:

/*** Reveal URL box in Add/Edit Bookmark drop-down ***/

1. editBMPanel_locationRow, #editBMPanel_keywordRow {

 visibility: visible !important;

}

I have a login screen that is book marked in Firefox. When I use this on my PC (Windows 11), it correctly displays and then Norton Password Manager prompts to complete the id/password. However in Firefox ios, when the screen appears, it is preloaded. I dont know where it get this data from, but either the website doesnt allow it, or the password entered is wrong. Either way I have to delete the password and re-enter it to continue.

WHere is it getting this autofill from and why does it do it in ios but not the PC version?

So I patiently shut my mouth last month after I was told the "devs" are looking into why the bookmarks reset to the top of the folder each time they're used. Waited for the next update. The problem still exists. Nothing has changed.

The oft-cited bug report refers to INTERMITTENT behavior. This happens All.The.Flipping.Time. That bug report isn't worth squat. And to try and file a new one with the accurate behavior frequency, it gets dismissed as a duplicate by someone who apparently loves mindlessly scrolling bookmarks all freakin day.

When is this issue going to be resolved?

Firefox didn't open normally and I got a screen about refreshing it. I "refreshed" Firefox this morning and all my bookmarks vanished. I tried the suggestions in HELP but it didn't work. How do I get back to the old version of Firefox so I can have my bookmarks?

I ran a scan with Total AV last night and now this morning my bookmarks in Firefox quit working. They are visible but not opening. I have old bookmarks saved from long time ago, so resetting dosen't work as it only shows recent ones.

I am not able to delete old bookmarks. When I delete them, exit out of FireFox and return at a later time, the bookmarks that I had deleted reappear. Please help as I have about 20 bookmarks for WEB sites that have moved or are no longer valid sites !

On my Android home I often use Add to Home Screen to place an icon on the home screen for frequently used websites. They tend to disappear when Android updates are pushed out. Anybody know how to prevent this?

By the way, the inability to mark a page within a PWA website sucks rocks. Developers, please give us a choice to install PWAs or just use page shortcuts if possible.

After a reset for my laptop.

I reinstall Firefox, all good. Sign in to my account, also fine.

But then none of my bookmarks or passwords are syncing back. Please can anyone help?

Using Firefox since version3.

When I try to open my yahoo email I get this message.

"The page isn’t redirecting properly

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

   This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies."

When I scroll down and click on a bookmark it used to remember where I left off, now it always starts at the top of the list every time. I haven't changed any settings that I know of, the computer has updated so I assume something changed.

Is there any way or any extention which can make a bookmark behave like a pinned tab? so that whenever I am browsing that bookmark is tracked and automatecally updated as I browse?
