Bookmark and history do not work

My bookmarks and history ceased to operate. I followed all the instructions in the help nothing helps. I've uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox without result. In some cases, the instructions to fix this problem do not work because the buttons they say to use or selections seem not to be there. It's very frustrating.

You can check for problems with the database places.sqlite file in the Firefox profile folder.

  • "Bookmarks and history system is not functional" with corrupt files found by Avast and slow loading Web sites ONLY in Firefox

    Firefox is the only browser that allows me to connect with my microphone. I need to use this feature for an online class. Earlier tonight, the message invites me to grant or deny permission to site class to use the microphone stopped appearing and without this registration only will pick up all the sounds and I can't save anything.

    I tried to quit and restart Firefox. I had a few extensions in use at the time, in particular Session Manager. The allow/deny message would not always appear, then I restarted my computer.

    Now when I open Firefox, I see the message error "the bookmarks and history system won't be not functional. In addition, the browser loads websites extremely slowly; It takes several minutes to load each page or for me to be able to click on anything whatsoever (bar URL, menus, etc.) my other browsers (Internet Explorer and Chrome) are functioning normally and loading Web sites at a normal speed. I tried to download the latest version of Firefox, but it does not solve anything. I also tried to restart the computer again, but that didn't help either.

    I ran my Avast software system check, and it has mounted as the following files under "C:\Users\ (me) \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\Irozixj7.default ' are 'damaged and unreadable ':
    -cookies.sqlite - shm
    -cookies.sqlite - wal
    -localstore.rdf
    -places.sqlite - shm

    There was one more problem on the analysis, but it is probably not relevant: the file "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows Defender\Definition Updates\{9A2C6FA7-E04E-4819-B86A-8363A9D1E42A}\mpengine.dll" it says "the system does not have the specified path. When I tried to follow the path shown, one of the files (I can't remember who) said something along the lines of "you can't access this folder, you want to allow access to this file permanently? I said yes and was able to access the folder.

    I tried to add the extension in Maintenance of places, but the speed is too slow to download anything. Trying to access any results of the menus in the Explorer freezing for several minutes then thaw but with the menu still unopened. As a result, none of the solutions found here (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/fix-bookmarks-and-history-will-not-be-functional?esab=a & as = aaq) seem to work.

    My questions are the following:
    -Is it possible to understand what caused the problem in the first place?
    Is there a way for me to fix it without losing my bookmarks and history?
    -How can I prevent that from happening again in the future?

    First of all, I recommend you backup your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See back up and restore the information contained in the profiles of Firefox. You can copy the folder of your Firefox profile together somewhere outside the Mozilla folder. To quickly access this folder:

    Help > troubleshooting information > "view file" button.

    Then, to keep this file open, exit Firefox and try to move "damaged and unreadable" files to another folder. With the exception of localstore.rdf, which stores the positions of windows, toolbar tools and other data non-essential customizations, other files appear to be specific session files that we hope, are not critical. If you restart Firefox, should he behave more normally?

    If this is not the case, try to create a fresh Firefox profile. It will be the Flash plugin, which is the control of sites use usually to connects to your camera or microphone and other plugins, but otherwise will be a new configuration. This article has the commissioning steps in the Profile Manager: use the Profile Manager to create and delete profiles Firefox.

    If the sites are functioning normally in the new profile, you can import your bookmarks from your old profile, as well as the copy on the other files that do not appear to be the cause of the problem. Some trial and error may be needed to determine that. This article has a few tips: recovery of data from an old profile.

    If the new profile is not better, you can exit Firefox and use the Profile Manager to return to your original profile.

    Any improvement?

  • Several major problems with Firefox - crash, loss of bookmarks and history, totalling amnesia

    On my Windows 7 Professional 64-bit system, I met worse problems I've had with Firefox (all versions, I tried the oldest and the newest, who currently use 37). One day, I rebooted by computer, and when I started Firefox, it was completely broken. He was not able to load my favorites, TabGroupsManager could not load my recorded session and it crashed when I tried to search Google or visit several Web sites. I couldn't fix it and migrate Pale Moon until exactly the same thing happened there. I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled, but now whenever I open it, it's as if it was just installed - no profile information, no Add-ons, no Favorites, absolutely nothing. Application data HAVE folders for profiles that have been opened every time - Firefox does not access and does not recognize that they exist.

    I'm totally lost and at the end of my mind. None of the aid or other sites have been any help at all. The problem is exclusive to a single computer - two other computers I've used do not have this problem at all. Help, please!

    (Additional note: when I met the first problems of Pale Moon, it gave me an error that it could not access the bookmarks and history because another application has their use.) This error never appeared in Firefox, but given identical patterns of problems and the fact that the pale Moon is based on Firefox, I think it might be relevant).

    Well, I think that the problem at least explained that now and patched up right now. I went to a COMPUTER specialist at work and after work things have stabilized.

    The computer I'm is a Department that usually connects to a server. The profile data is actually stored via this server, and when I lived the problems, I was at home and that it was not connected to the server said. Normally it is supposed to be a current synchronization that stores things like that to a task on my computer - but for some reason what not really, or at least not properly. That's why I couldn't find a profile.ini file - it was only stored in a place that could not access the computer. After getting to work and do a few random files and other reading, Firefox and Pale Moon are fully functional again, and I can't find the files profile.ini appropriate on the server (they are not yet on my computer, and I don't know how to read locally).

    The best solution to the problems 'offline' we had was through a VPN so that I always have access to the server. I would like to get the files on my computer so that I wouldn't have to worry about this, but it's a question that needs to be addressed separately.

    Thanks to Seraph for their help in this confusing issue. I have an idea of what to look for if something like this happens again.

  • How do you the bookmarks and history buttrons open boxes in Firefox 33?

    How I make the bookmarks and history buttons open their respective boxes instead of having to use the submenu stupid button on the sidebar?

    Apparently, the Restorer of classic theme worked for Firefox 29, but it does not work for 33:
    https://support.Mozilla.org/en-us/questions/991080

    There are two sets of buttons of toolbar tools for history and bookmarks in the palette to customize with the CTR extension installed. You need those without drop marker to open the sidebar.

  • The sidebar option permament for bookmarks and history disappeared completely?

    I used to be able to push a button and have my history or bookmarks are displayed as a sidebar. Since the new update it appears only as a drop of water down and it's getting in my way while I'm working. I learned there are key controls that can be used to appear on the side and there seems to be a button in the menu itself, but they do not last. I'm not good with computers and can't really use or remember complicated keyboard commands and the extra button on the drop-down list takes more time. Is it possible to get back to how it was before the update or this option is no longer possible?

    {Ctrl + B} and {Ctrl + H} will open the bookmarks and history.

    There is a new button 'Boxes' in Firefox 30 Beta, but which will have an extra click to open the side panel of choice.

  • Bookmarks and history disappeared after 15 updated FF!

    I've just updated FF version 15.0.1 and all my bookmarks and history are missing! I tried to restore from bookmarks FF backup but could not. Help, please!

    Thanks cor - el. That did not work, BUT
    I tried this way and it WORKED! For those who have the same problem, try this:

    Leave Firefox runs. In the Finder, open the library folder in your home folder (not the library folder at the top level of your boot volume.) Enter Time Machine and restore the following:

    / Library/Application Support/Firefox

    / Library/Application Support/Mozilla

    Library/Preferences/org.mozilla.firefox.plist

    Restart Firefox

  • 6.0.2 is unable to save the new bookmarks - and I did not bookmark running modules. Help?

    When I started my laptop after work, I met an unpleasant surprise - my Firefox 6.0.2 had reset itself (but kept my favorites). I had to relocate where my buttons and toolbars in the program went, relog my information for Echofon, and I'm dealing with NoScript now. Now, I find that Firefox 6.0.2 does not save my favorites. I don't have any deal with the module with bookmarks, and it was working fine before. Using the shortcut Ctrl + D does not either, and nor not entered manually. What gives?

    One possible cause is a problem with the places.sqlite file that stores the bookmarks and history.

  • Upgrade trashed my bookmarks and history. Also changed the font size. Don't restore point to go back but still no Favorites or history

    Otherwise and to restore both the history, please see.

  • Cache, cookies and history are not compensation when I close Firefox, even if they are to do and have been for centuries

    I had recently an update (or upgrade?) for 16 FF. Today (and I believe that the update has been done a day or two before?) my cache, cookies and history are not compensation when I close FF. In addition, some links may not work. No links to full web pages but for pop ups of site (as the engine of Smillie on a bulletin board). They worked a few days but do work not today. I click on the link and nothing happens. I noticed the problem with the cookies not compensation for a few weeks ago, but it was not only on a single site all sites which is what is happening now.

    My apologies if this is a little confusing. Thank you!

    I use fill form for private browsing is a bit complicated. I just put everything out when I close Firefox.

    Nevertheless, it seems to have fixed itself and now works for the time being everything is good. I have no idea what happened, but it works.

  • How do you export groups of tabs, bookmarks, and history fron a computer to another computer

    I found myself replacing my computer for various reasons and need to recover all my data from my old computer to the new. However, when it came to Firefox and my groups of tabs, bookmarks and history, I have not found any real way to export them to the other computer. is it possible to record all this information and then move it to the new computer? It's exhausting to have to lose all my save information as well as all of the tabs that I have because I need them and it takes a long time to copy and paste all my address in a text and saving it like that.

    in the links list, I read on registration and export and restore everything except for groups.

    Of course, it would be nice if they just don't go away, but as long a they do (as with the last upgrade FF8.0) I would like to know where they are stored (so I can get time machine) and how I can export for use on other devices.

    It would also be useful for FF sync to synchronize them - there is no mention of this - that's why I stayed with Xmarks for the moment - as has also lets me sync with Chrome and Safari.

    Hi, I bought a the United States iphone6, im now in South Africa and it will not work. It says sim not supported.how do I fix this?

    The SIM card is not support indicates that the iPhone is locked to the American carrier that it has been activated with. In order to obtain the released lock it is necessary that you talk to the carrier to find out what their requirements are to release the lock. They are the only ones who unlock it so that it can be used with another carrier.
