Why can I see mobile bookmarks OK on android Firefox, and also in the "manage bookmarks" tab in windows application, but cannot see "mobile bookmarks" folder when I click bookmarks on the windows application.

This worked OK before, can I fix it? Sync is on and enabled, seems to be working OK.

I just tried to open Firefox and got the message "The bookmarks and history system will not be functional because one of Firefox's files is in use by another application. Some security software can cause this problem". DO NOT redirect to this link

It is useless. I tried to restore 3953 items from a previous back up and received the message "Unable to process the backup file".

I am not interested in hearing how to prevent this problem in the future, because obviously creating backups do not work.

How do I check to see if the problem was caused by security software, even though I have not added anything?

I updated Firefox the other day and now I have to use the sidebar to get to my bookmarks. I want my bookmarks back at the top of the page where they're easy to see and get to. Yes, "Always show" is checked for the bookmarks toolbar under View.

I would like to be able to store a bookmark in more than one location. I don't believe this is possible since when I move my bookmark, it gets deleted where is used to be when I move it.

Hi How can I find and merge duplicated bookmarks in "Other Bookmarks". I've looked at some answers on the web but none seem to say anything about merging within a folder

Thanks

Hello,

Today I was forced to reinstall my PC (nothing worked, a lot of problems etc). I was told that I don't need to use any backup for Mozilla (even if I wanted, my PC problems would not allow me to do that) because yesterday I've made a sync. After couple of hours of reinstalling the system I wanted to sync my account to get back my Bookmarks and turns out that sync does not restore them. I have all my plugins and that's all, none of the bookmarks. I've lost literally years of saved data.

I want to export my bookmarks from a Linux laptop to a Windows 11 laptop. Can they be sync'd? I have tried the instructions from CoPilot on the new Windows machine, but not getting anywhere.

I just noticed after an update today that the Mobile menu entry (with bookmarks from my mobile Firefox instances) no longer appears in the browser's Bookmarks menu. I can access them from the bookmark manager, but this change seems extraordinarily stupid and arbitrary and is a definite step backwards.

Although I saw now your warning to create recovery keys. I was unaware in past. Ha dto change laptop and browser didn't let me login by gmail. I created password and saved in firefox itself.Please help if possible to recover bookmarks in my account

I recently added the "Display Autoplay" extension. I can't seem to figure out how to get the icon to show in the tool bar. See Attached acreen shot. That's assuming that this extension icon can be added to the tool bar. I look forward to anyone's comments. Thanks

In the Add Bookmark menu that is accessed from the address bar, the field for adding a keyword shortcut is absent. This is the same menu that is accessed by Ctrl + D. It's ironic that the menu accessed via a keyboard shortcut is missing the field for adding a keyboard shortcut.

"Tags" field is present on all, but I find it orders of magnitude less useful than keywords.

A lot of my bookmarks are just global icon signs when I click them, nothing happens, some that are proper icon signs, will list take me to any random site, tried restoring and restarting, to no avail ,this is a long standing issue, affecting both bookmark toolbar and other bookmarks. Even tried reinstalling Firefox, the issue still stands Firefox is otherwise perfect, I've now run out of ideas, any help would be appreciated from Patrick

I did a refresh in order to get Firefox 129 to speed up and lost a short cut or icon that would display my favorites in a column on left side of page and stay open until I closed them. This was extremely helpful if you have a list of sites you visit every day. The icon for this was an open book.

I recently installed openSUSE TW on my new laptop, and as part of the default Firefox install it bookmarked many openSUSE websites. I removed them from my bookmarks, but they still remain in the address bar recommendations every time I click/open the address bar (see pic). I have cleared the all time history, I have double checked to make sure that they are no longer bookmarked, and the only way I can get them to disappear is by completely disabling "Shortcuts" in Settings -> Address Bar — Firefox Suggest -> Shortcuts => Untick. I'd prefer being able to just click the address bar and click on the websites I frequently visit. This has happened in the past, but I thought I just removed them from the bookmarks and the links went away. Any help greatly appreciated!
