There are two bars:
- Bookmarks Toolbar that appears horizontally, under the address bar
- Bookmarks Sidebar that appears vertically along the left side
The sidebar button is gone, but you can open it using either:
- Ctrl+b
- Bookmarks menu > View Bookmarks Sidebar
Is that what you're looking for?
You can use F10 to get your menu bar back temporarily and then use the View menu to activate the toolbar - F10 > View > Toolbars > Bookmarks Toolbar ...
Or perhaps your bookmark button is missing like mine was; I made a video about it http://alicious.com/firefox-bookmark-star-missing/ which might help.
I guess i failed to make my question clear. i'm sorry. after this upgrade there is a horizontal region called the "bookmarks toolbar" near the top of the new window, but this region is empty. an hour ago it contained many bookmarks. can you explain how i can repopulate the new "bookmarks toolbar" with all of the bookmarks that it contained in the previous version of firefox? thank you, ron
i've attached an image showing that when i look at the bookmarks library, all my bookmarks are still in the bookmarks toolbar. i don't understand why in this new version of firefox they are not visible in the actual bookmarks toolbar.
Sounds like a problem with your "places.sqlite" file - is everything else as expected, did you maybe start a new profile entirely?
Do you have a backup you can import via Ctrl+Shift+O bookmarks screen?
Hi ronbar59, when you're in the Customize mode, can you confirm that "Bookmarks Toolbar Items" is on the correct bar and not somewhere else in the interface?

Thanks for your response to my request for help, but the problem has become moot.
I don't understand why the Bookmarks Toolbar in Firefox 29 was empty yesterday, but today it looks like it did before the upgrade.
When I opened Firefox 29 this morning I was pleased to see that my Bookmarks Toolbar was now fully populated (see image).
Thanks again for your suggestions.
Ron
