I can't add a bookmark to my bookmarks bar
I recently had to do a complete reset of Firefox. I added on the Restorer Classic theme, as I did before, except now I can't add a bookmark in the toolbar (where you can drag and drop a webpage in the zone just below the address bar). I have the bookmarks toolbar option checked and there is a bookmarks menu, but when I click on it, it shows all my favorites, which lists all the bookmarks that I had in my toolbar until I had to reset Firefox Bookmarks Toolbar. Someone help me please. I feel like I have tried everything - play with the options, Googling the problem - and I am at a loss. It's really frustrating.
Make sure the toolbars as the 'personal bar' are visible.
- Firefox '3-bar' menu button > customize > show/hide toolbars
- View > toolbars
Press the ALT key, or press F10 to display the Menu bar - Right click on empty toolbar space
Open the Customize and set the toolbar to display items.
- Firefox '3-bar' menu button > customize
- Make sure that the "Bookmarks toolbar items" is on the personal bar
- If "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the bookmarks toolbar, then FRY it in the palette to customize the window customize to the bookmarks toolbar
- If the missing elements are in the palette to customize then drag them back into the window to customize the toolbar
- If you don't see an article on a toolbar and in the palette to customize, then click on the "Restore default settings" button to restore the default toolbar configuration

can I add a bookmark to Favorites already imported
I had to completely remove firefox from my pc because it has been infected by malware. I downloaded and installed the latest version. I imported my bookmark until I did, so they appear as imported bookmarks. I have 10 years of bookmarks. Now again I bookmarked, I'd like to add, but I have to start all over again with a new bookmark menu. I would like to add all new bookmarks to the ones I imported. Is it possible
In which one or more folders are bookmarks you have imported located?
You can only add new bookmarks to one of the three folders root (Menu bookmarks, Bookmarks Toolbar, Unsorted Bookmarks) or a subfolder of those.

I have been unable to add new bookmarks for awhile now,-either by click on the Star then the bookmarks icon in the toolbar (blue, flying star in the toolbar animation is happening, but the star remains empty) or in the menu on the right by clicking on a tab. I can add/edit the bookmarks if I go to the bookmark manager.
I know that this issue was raised before, however, none of the answers posted (that I got at least) helped.
I tried the solution places.sqlite. It did not help.
I tried the addon in maintenance of places. It did not help.
Thank you
Most likely, this is caused by the IE Tab + extension. Try disabling or deleting on the page modules. Either:
- CTRL + SHIFT + a
- "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then you can find IE Tab + on the right side.
Often, a link will appear above a disabled/removed extension to restart Firefox for the changes to take effect. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links in the last step.
Which solves the problem?
Note: I don't know if all the IE Tab extensions will be updated to fix this all seem to cause in Firefox 40. If you need to load some sites in Internet Explorer, you can use the following extension place - it sends the URL IE to load: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/open-in-ie/

I can't add new bookmarks all of a sudden. Always occurs in safe mode
I can add new bookmarks are no longer. The box will not be displayed on all Web sites, but is displayed on the yahoo homepage. I tried to disable a material option as suggested on mozilla troubleshooting guide located under options > tab advanced no chance... issue always happens in safe mode and I tried to reset my firefox settings with no luck.
I forgot this option (when you use the full menu bar, this icon of the menu is hidden). So normally the White Star in the address bar icon turns yellow and a grave opens and allows you to change the bookmark (or cancel).
I'm surprised that it works on one web page, but not others. Since you have already reset Firefox, two things come to mind:
(1) install Firefox on itself to replace all the damaged program files. You can download the installer from: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/fx/#desktop
(2) work through the fixes in this article: cannot add, change, or bookmark - how to fix.

How can I prevent the bookmarks bar to open at startup?
I already have the bookmarks bar unchecked under options, but it always opens automatically when I first start Firefox? Is there a way to stop this? Thank you.
Hey Copenhagen,.
Are you talking about the bookmarks toolbar? The one along the top of the screen? The checkmark comes bock when you restart Firefox?
Whatever it is, you should take a look at article in the Knowledge Base How to repair preferences that will not save . It may be that Firefox has struggle to write in the pref.js file.
If this does not work, you can also try to create a new profile.
Hope this helps!

Tried to restore a bookmarks file (I have a dozen), but I get the message "failed to process the backup file". By clicking on the 'star' to add a new bookmark seems to work until I click "Show all bookmarks" which reveals a still empty library. Any help is appreciated. Thank you
You can check for problems with the database places.sqlite file in the Firefox profile folder.

Whenever I use the new bookmark button in firefox, it puts the bookmark into unsorted bookmarks and I want them all to go into the menu of bookmarks instead of as it used to.

History is not being recorded, either, but I still have my downloads. How can I find my favorites? I've never saved. Thank you.
One possible cause is a problem with the places.sqlite file that stores the bookmarks and history.

How can I remove the bookmarks bar favicons?
I've just updated to Firefox 29... and it disabled an add-on, I am using for some time (deiconizer bookmarks). Is there a way to remove ugly and unnecessary favicons in my bookmarks toolbar in order to make more room for real and functional bookmarks?
You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder currently in use:
- Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory: see file (Linux: open the directory;) Mac: View in the Finder)
- Create the folder chrome (lowercase) in the .default < xxxxxxxx > profile folder if the folder does not exist.
- Use a text editor such as Notepad to create a userChrome.css (new) file in this folder (the names are case-sensitive).
- Paste the code in the userChrome.css file in the Editor window and make sure that the userChrome.css file starts with the default @namespace line.
- Make sure that you select "All files" and not "text files" when you save the file via "save file as" in the text editor as userChrome.css.
Otherwise, Windows can add a hidden .txt file extension, and you end up with a file not work userChrome.css.txt or userContent.css.txt.

In Firefox 3, there was a button that would open up a new tab. This button was close to my address (next to the home, refresh, buttons etc.) bar and can also be used when I had no open tag (unlike the + on the tabbar, who is only there when I turn on my tabbar).
Although there is a button I can add that will open a new window, I would like to know if it is possible to have a similar button that will open a new tab.https://support.Mozilla.com/en-us/KB/how+to+customize+the+toolbar
There is a button tab in the Customize Palette, simply move it to a location of your choice.

Hi duinker,.
You should look at article in the Knowledge Base of Bookmarks Toolbar - view your Web Favorites at the top of the Firefox window . It will show you how to create and manage bookmarks in the bookmarks toolbar.
It is quite similar to the management of all the bookmarks, then you might want to take a look at this article as well.
