I can't save new bookmarks or delete existing ones.

My bookmark system worked until a few days ago and now will not let me save new pages or delete existing ones. Tried both methods described on the main site, neither worked.

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

  • Favorite Menu works, but the library of Favorites folder is empty, no import bookmarks or save new bookmarks.

    I can see and use the previously marked pages to a bookmark in the bookmarks bar. However, the Favorites of the library folder is empty. I can't import or restore bookmarks to it, and it will not save new bookmarks. In fact, 'add bookmarks' lists all records in which put new bookmarks. I tried trashing Firefox and download a new version. Did not solve. I searched the troubleshooting resources and assistance only I found suggested opening the profile folder to delete maybe corrupted files as places.sqlite but could not find such a file or files on my hard drive. Help! Thank you!

    I got this yesterday after the 3.6.4 problem upgrade. I'm not sure if I saw all the things you did, but I have def lost all bookmarks and the back button. I fixed it by:
    1. go to the Firefox profile directory, which for me is here but 1st bit will be different for you as mine work specific:

    C:\Documents and Settings\U049177\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\soez0lvk.default
    2 delete places.sqlite and places.sqlite - journal

    3. start Firefox (you should have the back button now works but not Favorites, he recreated to these 2 files)

    4. in the menu, bookmarks and then organize bookmarks, then button import and backup, then restore, then select a day to restore from. You should now have your backups Firefoxes bookmarks.

    Hope this works for you

  • What happened to save a bookmark in an existing folder? Now, I have to save and then change the bookmarks - huge time waster

    I'm sorry if I'm simply not see something obvious, but save and organize bookmarks appear to have taken a huge step backward. It seems I can save only a bookmark in the zone unsorted bookmarks and then need to open the bookmarks library to move the bookmark to a folder. In the past, you had options to save a new bookmark in an existing folder or create a new folder and save here.
    Again, I'm sorry if I simply don't see a method to achieve that is right in front of my face.

    • By clicking on the star in the toolbar navigation go to bookmark the page in the "Unsorted Bookmarks" folder and the star lights in blue to show that
    • Bookmarks > 'Bookmark this Page' (Ctrl + D) going to bookmark the page in the folder of bookmarks Menu (you will need to confirm that)
    • 'Bookmark this Page' is accessible via the context menu in the area through the bookmarks menu or navigation in the menu or Firefox menu button drop-down bar (Alt + B)
    • If the URL in the Navigation bar is set bookmark and the star is blue highlight then click on this star highlighted or use the menu item "Bookmark This Page/Edit this bookmark" (Ctrl + D) to change the properties of the bookmark as the name and the location and move the bookmark to another folder or delete the bookmark
  • I can't add new bookmarks

    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/

  • How can I save a bookmark in multiple locations?

    In previous versions, I could save a bookmark in one folder, then in another. This option seems to have disappeared with 29,0. Reference articles describe how to do this.

    Does anyone have a turn in their bag, which will do us this?

    I know that I might be able to use tags, but I have thousands of bookmarks filed and can not start a new process now with the launch of a major upcoming project.

    Thank you!

    Allan

    Hello allen, in the library of bookmark you can copy and paste bookmarks in several locations. However as you said, tags are probably a much more efficient way to organize your bookmarks...

  • How can you save a bookmark in a folder in one step?

    I use Firefox for years and just upgraded to the latest version. I already have a bunch of folders of bookmarks created.

    My first problem was when I chose 'Choose' to scroll through my folders and choose which one I want to save the page to, it took me rather to the unsorted bookmarks folder. The only other options in this window were Bookmarks Toolbar and Menu bookmarks, and any of the three to take me to a list of my bookmark folders when I click on them.

    After playing with him, now it only gives me even this choice when I click the icon in the bookmarks toolbar, it just saves the page to Favorites not sorted automatically.

    I know that I can go and organize bookmarks after the fact, but it seems a bit ridiculous to have first save it to a location of reserved space. I have not found this dealt with in the FAQ of bookmarks, so I hope someone can ' splain to me how to solve this problem.

    BTW, I'm running Firefox on Windows XP, but have the same problem on a PC running Windows 8.

  • I have Firefox version 34.0.5. All my favorites are gone and I can't add new bookmarks. The 'library' is empty. Help!

    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

  • 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.
