When I open my bookmarks on Android it always defaults back to the top level of my bookmarks which is very irritating. I often read pages that are located under the same bookmark folder. It would be nice if Firefox would remember the bookmark folder I used last like every other browser does.

I'm trying to backup my bookmark favorites to a USB device I tried your steps and it is not updating the bookmarks to my USB device only showing the last backup I changed the file name and it is not saving the latest updated bookmarks please help Thank you

I recently downloaded Firefox browser version 118 I need to know how to import my bookmarks and favorites from Safari browser. I looked it up and the only instruction you have is for version 113 and it seems not to apply to version 118.

I have just moved from Edge to Firefox as my default browser. I have successfully imported my Favorites from Edge. However, I have two issues that I have not been able to remedy.

Now that I have imported into Bookmarks, some items are shown under Bookmarks while other are shown under Other Bookmarks. Is there a way to merge the two, or will I have to move them individually?

Also, is it possible to have only my most used items show on the toolbar individually from left to right, and still show the Bookmark icon where everything else is listed on the right?

Pretty much what the title says: What happened if I did not choose to sync my bookmark and I delete them from the unsynced device ? Would it affect the other devices or would it only removes bookmarks from the unsynced device ? I just installed mozilla on my office and I don't want my bookmarks to appear in my office's pc while also want to sync my extensions, what should I do ?

I'm looking for some specific explanation of how Firefox browser bookmarks sync handles a situation where a new device with no or different bookmarks is added to an older, original device with its own synced set of bookmarks.

Do the newer bookmarks on the newer device merge with those on the original older device, or do the newer ones REPLACE the older ones on the original device? In my experience, the newer ones sometimes at least seem to replace the older ones, which is not the behavior I'd want.

And, is there any way to adjust just how the syncing occurs in terms of merging vs. replacing?

Thanks!

I have just updated to Firefox115.2.1 ESR. On the recommendation of Mozilla! The small icon next to my bookmarks are missing and the bookmark doesn't work. Only a few of the bookmarks have an icon. I have a large number of bookmarks, so I do not want to create them again. It would take me hours to do. I have tried to import bookmarks backup but nothing seems to happen.

I hope someone can give me a quick simple answer. Thanks Brian

It is not unusual for me to have trouble following articles. I looked at restore, said would be a list of dated automatic backups, I do not see anything. I tried switching profiles, only have 2, i see no difference. please help. I'm on a Surface Pro, windows 11

I have synced my bookmarks from my desktop Firefox to Firefox on my Android phone and tablet. If I bookmark something on my tablet, how do I move the bookmark into a desktop folder? I tried creating a bookmark on my tablet, but I can't seem to move it from my tablet to my desktop. I've looked at a help article which helped me create the bookmark, but I tried their saving procedure and had no success. Right now, I save the email containing the link I want to bookmark, then access the email on my desktop and save the bookmark there. How do I save the bookmark directly from the tablet into my desktop folders?

Hi, how to automatically save or "backup" bookmarks to my account?

So that let's suppose I go to another computer, open up my account, and all my bookmarks will be there?

My computer got reset and all data deleted, and when I logged into FF again, all the bookmarks were gone.

I don't want to manually backup my bookmarks, it should be done automatically and connected to the account and stored on the FF server.

How to do this, is there even a way?

Hi. I have a question regarding the latest version 118.2.0 for Android. If you want to save websites that you visit often you can press "add to shortcuts" and then you could easy reach them in the Firefox home page. In the new version 118.2.0 you must always press refresh when you open one of the "shortcuts" For example, if you had a shortcut to CNN.com earlier (in the old version) and opened it you always came to the "refresh" side. In the new vesrsion 118.2.0 you always must press "refresh" I dont know if this is a bug or not ? Regards /O

When clicking on the bookmarks icon, my ipad takes me to a screen where one of the tabs is Bookmarks, and Edit at the bottom right. However, my bookmarks are not there and they are not in menu toolbars or unsorted either. Where are they on my ipad?

Screen popped up suggesting to refresh firefox. Did so 2nd time it appeared. Now home page is radically different and bookmarks are no longer visible. There is a pulldown screen for bookmarks but some had been deleted ages ago and others used daily are no longer there. Did the "about:profile" process and opened a fold and it has a folder marked "bookmarks"

How do I recover all the bookmarks and have them displayed as previously (vertical listing on left side). Never had anything like this happen previously.

I had to reinstall Firefox and restore my bookmarks from an HTML file. After the restore, I found I could only copy a few of my Bookmarks Toolbar and Other Bookmark links to the corresponding files in the new installation. I was only able to move the Toolbar bookmarks to the proper file because the old Toolbar file appeared on my toolbar, and I could move the bookmarks one by one to the toolbar until all were entered.

I'm faced with a similar problem with the Other Bookmarks (OB) file. I only have five or six bookmarks in the file, and I need to add about a dozen more. I tried copying and pasting them into the new file in the Bookmarks Manager; the bookmarks copied but would not paste into the file. (I know they copied because I successfully pasted them to a LibreOffice document.) I tried opening one of the copied links; it said it was in the OB file, but it wasn't listed. Why can't I just bulk-copy the bookmarks into the file in the Bookmarks Manager? If that isn't possible

Hi!

We use Firefox, on iPhones and iPads (and on our iMac, but this is not so much of a problem on the big computer).

You know on the home page, where you have your pinned shortcuts, and each one has its own little icon (which, I believe, is usually supplied by the individual websites?) showing a logo for the website in question. Makes it easy to find the shortcut you want, at a glance.

Well, for more than a year, we’ve been having an annoying little issue:

All these logos get mixed up! Or sometimes, random, generic looking squares appear, with a single letter that has nothing to do with the website in question.

I might see my favorite aviation blog’s icon, on the spot for townhall! And the familiar townhall icon appears over the link for Bible Gateway! And further on down the line, the shortcut for NOAA weather just has a pastel pink square with the letter W in it.

Inexplicable!

It’s not a terrible problem - my shortcuts are all still there, in the same order in which I pinned them. However, one has to hunt through these mixed-up logos to find them!

I would appreciate any help that can be given! Thanks!

I've built up an extensive library of very important bookmarks in firefox. Last week, I needed to clean my computer and deleted not the bookmarks, but the "downloads" folder of random PDF's and other documents. Now, my bookmarks are all gone and I've taken all the mozilla steps to recover them to no success. I can't even find any browsing history to revisit the sites and create a new bookmark list. Is there a way to access my previous history and bookmarks?
