• Why some of my items on bookmarks toolbar disappeared

  Hello
  I have been using Firefox for years and have never experienced this problem. When I opened the browser today several posts on the bookmarks toolbar were missing, for example PayPal, Chase, etc. When I right click on the toolbar and select "Open all in tabs", he says, "you are about to open 17 tabs. This could slow down Firefox while pages load. Are you sure you want to continue? "Currently, there are only 4 remaining items that were there yesterday. He could have 17 items there previously (they filled up the entire toolbar).

  How can I recover lost items? Why did they go away? I didn't intentionally remove them.

  Thanks for your help.
  John

  I discovered that in the toolbar editor, I could move all items except PayPal and eBay. All other items display their URL, but PayPal and eBay doesn't have, and I couldn't move on them like the others. And so I moved everything to the PayPal and eBay.

  Thanks for your help.

• Cannot move the bookmarks in the bookmarks toolbar... I get the slash instead

  When I try to drag a web address in the bookmarks toolbar... I get the circle with a slash in there... I can't add all the bookmarks in the bookmarks toolbar. This never happened in older versions of the combustion chamber, only in version 31. Any help? Thank you!

• Empty FF29 my bookmarks toolbar.

  I had a row of bookmarks above my tabs in the previous version.

  I'm not really Diggin ' this new UI, so I followed the steps to achieve the classic look, with square on the bottom tabs and the star to bookmark, but at some point during the fight with this hot mess of a customization menu, I dragged my toolbar bookmarks to his home under my nav bar and accidentally back down and to remove from beneath my navigation bar.

  I rightclicked in space above my tabs and double checked the bookmarks toolbar option, but all I have now is the black and White Star "Bookmarks" icon in my navigation bar. By clicking on this button sometimes brings up my bookmarks menu and sometimes does nothing. In this menu, listed under Favorites bar, is all of my old favorites, but they will not appear in the toolbar itself. I tried just to recharge my bookmarks toolbar by dragging a tab to the top inside (which is much more difficult if the tabs are on the top, because then it just moves the window), but nothing appears in the toolbar, even if it adds the page in the menu bookmark recently.

  I tried to reset the default customization, restart Firefox in safe mode in case there was a few broken add-on, restart the addons, but after much dragging and clicking and coaxing, I still have an empty bookmarks toolbar. I miss my favorites. How to make a comeback?

  Well, after a few edits, I discovered this.

  There are in fact three things in this hot mess of a customization that focus on bookmarks menu.

  1. "bookmarks" in the Customize menu, it's a star. It puts a toolbar of bookmarks to the top with a black and white icon with the text "Bookmarks" beside it, and clicking on this shows the Menu bookmarks menu drop-down.

  2. "bookmarks" it looks exactly like the first in the Customize menu (one star), but implements a black and white icon without text and clicking on this shows the bookmarks bar.

  3. "Bookmarks Toolbar items" has another icon in the Customize menu and implements all marked pages bookmarked that used to be in my bookmarks toolbar, which is exactly what I wanted.

  I think that the Customize menu could use a little refinement, but in the meantime, I hope this helps someone.

• customize the bookmarks toolbar

  I had spent time make the perfect, setting up bookmarks bar as I wanted with a mixture of bookmarks, folders and addons. And it worked fine for a day, until all of a sudden (without even closing the browser), everything was just gone. The only thing remaining is the basic "bookmarks" that came with the browser.

  Now, I can't add anything to the bookmarks bar. I wanted to start using firefox, but now I'm the Delete instead. This thing is just a fraud.

• I can't add bookmarks to the bookmarks toolbar - get a circle with a line though it.

  Updated for Firefox 13... She has not any of the previous version went to build a new bookmarks toolbar and when I tried to drag an item from the Web site to the toolbar (as I used to be able to do easily in the previous version) I had a circle with a line through it - which basically said sorry you can do. Backgraded to 12 Version and I have the same problem. I don't have any extensions running. The bookmarks bar is checked (forthcoming) and there is an empty up there... just cannot add anything to it. Any suggestions on what I may be missing would be appreciated. I wouldn't give up this late date on Firefox. Thank you!

  Well, I'm embarrassed to admit that I followed all of your suggestions with little chance... but then I started to 'pitch and putt' with practically everything what they allowed me to view and customize both and to the high jump bar Bookmarks imported when I've updated - but was not showing... I suspect it was the thing to restore default setting that worked at one point. (I'm definitely NOT a geek as you might have guessed.) But what worries me is that I don't really know what I did, and if I go on another machine and have the same problem I'm going to start on (but knowing that I CAN fix it if I'm persistent). Thanks for all the suggestions! I'm back with Firefox again.

• Roomy Bookmarks Toolbar Favicons

  I use spacious bookmark Favicons and some elements are missing favicons

  so I want to provide image JPG/PNG etc missing favicons.

  What is the best way to bind a file JPG/PNG local with favourite favicon/bookmark toolbar icon

  Change bookmark icon, I posted in my first answer, certainly works for me with roomy Bookmarks Toolbar - see image below.

  Everything I've done for the image below, has been with the right button on a bookmark in the roomy bookmarks toolbar.

  If it doesn't work for you, maybe you have a contradictory add-on:

  1. Firefox Safe mode allows to find a problem with an Extension or a Plugin:
     • Do not check whatever entering in Safe Mode, just continue
     • If the problem does not occur in Mode without fail, it's probably an Extension or a Plugin at the origin of the problem

• I have used Firefox for about 8 years and yesterday lost my bookmarks toolbar. Any suggestions? Yet the bookmarks and it still seems in sight.

  I have used Firefox for about 8 years or since first of all, it has been developed and I love it! I especially love the personal bar and he used all these years without any problems. Yesterday, I lost somehow the bookmarks toolbar. It is still listed under view in the Menu. When I check, besides, that area expands a little and when I uncheck the box decreases a little. All my favorites are still there, but not the toolbar. I tried everything I know to try. I uninstalled and downloaded Firefox again and reinstalled. I have restarted my computer several times. I tried dragging the new bookmarks in the toolbar of the address of the site area. Nothing works. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what can be the cause and have a solution? I HATE that, without this toolbar. Thanks in advance!

  If the menu bar is hidden, then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key to make the call of menu bar.

  Make sure the toolbars like the toolbar 'Navigation' and the 'personal bar' are visible: "view > toolbars".

• How is it that after that I updated to Firefox 8.0.1 I have not only lost my bookmarks toolbar, but FF opens two tabs, whenever I open it?

  After I updated to FF 8.0.1 I lost my bookmarks toolbar. Every time I open FF, the toolbar is missing; only the stars and "Bookmarks" will appear on the line, but everything else is missing. Can I get back if I uncheck it and then save in the options.

  Not only that, but now, when I open FF, it automatically opens two tabs, instead of one.

  I tried to uninstall and reinstall, I tried to reset my toolbars and opening in safe mode, but none of this has worked.

  Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problems.

  See "basic troubleshooting: a new profile:

  • https://support.Mozilla.com/kb/basic+troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile

  There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "tools > Modules > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.

  If this new profile works then you can transfer files from the old profile to the new profile, but make sure not to copy corrupted files.

• How can I restore Favorites button to the Bookmarks Toolbar?

  I did all of the remedies detailed in helping restore the Favorites button to the bookmarks toolbar, but nothing helped. The favorite button is still missing from my bookmarks toolbar.

  He disappeared last night when a few cosmetic changes appeared on my Navigation bar.

  I had previously imported my Internet Explorer Favorites, but they are buried deep in the bookmarks menu and do not add a new favorite - so they are not practical to use.

  If I could synchronize my favorites to my favorites, I could finally give up favorites in favor bookmarks - but apparently Firefox does not provide this possibility.

  Disappearance of the favorite bookmarks toolbar button makes it practically unusable Firefox for me - unless I can find a solution.

  I have no Add-ons and no new plugin that could cause this problem.

  I solved the problem by a suggestion on the support Forum: I just exported my favourites, as a HTML file, from Internet Explorer 8.0 on the desktop. Then I imported the file Firefox by selecting import bookmarks in HTML... under the import and backup button in the toolbar of library.

  Finally, I closed and reopened Firefox. There was my favorite button once more on the bookmarks toolbar.
