In Firefox updated, my new bookmarks (Favorites) do not appear in Unsorted Bookmarks... or anywhere... and are not for editing when I double-click on the star.
Used Firefox (and Xmarks) for many years without problem.
Since the upgrade to the latest version of Firefox, I can't create new bookmarks. When I have a Web page 'star', it does not appear in the folder of Unsorted Bookmarks OR at the bottom of my list of unsorted bookmarks. I'm unable to 1) find my bookmark ANYWHERE and 2) double click on the star to change my bookmark.
Why am I having this problem? I spent too much time quite several times now trying to figure out what was once a task fundamental, almost blind.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
You can check for problems with the database places.sqlite file in the Firefox profile folder.

When I click on the Blue Star of bookmarks, it hops on the folder on the right, but when I click once again, I can't see the menu so that I can mark and drop my favorites. I don't even know if my pages are still really be set bookmark. I guess that if they are, they are all in the unsorted bookmarks. What can I do to get the ranking and tagging features?
jscher2000 - I am doing the HAPPY DANCE! Who did it! I should have suspected IE. I can't stand IE and I don't need the tab. I sometimes used it for Web pages which seemed to act opposite and hang up in FireFox. Thank you so much!

Above is clear
Does the location bar drop down list?
If so that's the list that shows when you start typing in the address bar or from the list that appears if you click on the arrow down on the far right?
It displays a list of Web sites that you typed or pasted into the address bar.

When I double click the bookmark (star) button a window still down so I can change the bookmark or place it in the folder I want. Now, after the last update of FF13 (June 2012), I can click once and the page is a bookmark in the "home" folder, but when I double click nothing happens. (1) I restarted FF, did not help 2) I rebooted the computer, did not help.
You just click on the star once if the star is high already turned on to indicate that a site is bookmarked. Normally, you would click once to bookmark the current site, then click once, if you want to change the new bookmark. If you double-click and you open and close the pop-up edition.

I'm a prisoner of the "new private window? Is it OK if I don't want that? God is going to punish me? It certainly looks that way.
I got Win 10 for 4 months and until yesterday, 11/10, I didn't even know about the 'new private window' and the flag purple now appears when I right-click on the Firefox icon. Someone tried to help her by suggesting new privacy settings. So I lost most of my desktop shortcuts but not the private window! I'll be back most of the shortcuts, but I'm still stuck with the purple flag company. I have a background of tech and only for this reason that I try to keep things simple. It is vital that, how did you before? Any help or clarification will be appreciated. Thanks for listening.

I always get requests to update on my office home page. After the most recent, most of my quick start icons are badges of adobe. Except a few functions are not open. When I right click on Firefox (for example) it says 'READ' rather than 'OPEN' and then displays the Adobe error box. The only other answer I received (from Ask.com) is that the update was a virus. I'm not computor savy and my pc is quite old. I just want to come an hour before this recent action, but I can't open Norton power eraser or even the ability of the computer to return to an earlier point in time to cancel the action. Each of these attempts of task appears Adobe error box. I am currently showing Adobe Reader X 10,0

With Firefox 29.0.1 by double clicking on the arrows on the right in the tab bar or the left creates a new tab at the end of the right hand of the tab bar. It is embarrassing behavior that violates standards around UI design click and double-click. A double-click should extend the behavior of the single click rather than do something completely different (opening a new tab). An example would be, in a Word, a single click selects a Word, double click selects the sentence and a triple click selects the paragraph. Note that this is a separate issue from double click the tab bar itself to create a new tab.
When there are more tabs on the tabs in the window toolbar, that highlight the tabs on the side will not hold show tab in use. I can click on the left and right arrows at the end of the tab bar to scroll the bar in this sense to bring a tab I want to select in the display. I believe that the double click on the arrow to the left would scroll the bar completely to the right, exposing the tab on the left Double click on the right arrow would scroll the bar left entirely exposing the rightmost tab.
It is a logical extension and expected behavior of single click. Single click - scroll once (seems to be the value of the tab in three), double-click on - scroll all the way.
For now, if I want to access the tab on the left, I have to click the arrow slowly and carefully until I get to it. I used only one quick click on the arrow to the left until that shponkah stop scrolling without having to count how many clicks. It is possible that my simple quick clicks were actually double-click. However, the bar tabs would stop scrolling when it reaches the end.
Now, the behavior is really annoying and unexpected. Double click on left dead entirely right tabs completely left arrow and creates a new tab at the end of the right hand. Ditto the arrow right in the opposite direction.
While I can (maybe) see that the value of a double click on the tab bar itself to create a new tab, double click on one of the scroll arrows should show a new tab.
Double click on the arrows of the tab should scroll the tab fully for this purpose bar. If the tab bar is already entirely Scrolls towards ending extra clicks (single, double and triple...) should be ignored.
I like the idea of opening a new tab to the right of the one that has the focus. This should be an option of the contextual right click menu.
That should not occur if you click the scroll buttons in the tab bar.
A double-click should act as page up/down and move a full screen and a triple click should move to the left (first tab) or the right (last) until now tab.Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.
- Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
- Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe

It was when I right click on the tab in Firefox I could use the option 'Move to the new window'. Now when I go down to this option, it seems it will work, but nothing happens. The other day I changed some options in Firefox, but I don't remember changing anything that sounded as if it would have this effect, and now I can't find all the options that seem to fix. Thanks in advance for any help.
Hello Beorn, probably the problem is an extension that is not working properly. Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most of the modules.
(If you use it, switch to the default theme).
- You can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
- Or open the Help menu and click on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item while Firefox is running.
Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot mode safe. "
If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. To do this, please follow article Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems .
To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.
When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. It might help others who have the same problem.
Thank you

Hi SKennedy1311,
There are several ways you can remove sites the location bar AutoComplete drop-down. It is probably easier for you to see than to explain. Take a look at the Awesome Bar - find your Firefox bookmarks, history, and the tabs in the address bar. This article will give you all the information you need.

Hello
The double-click feature applies from the lock screen, not the home screen.
To check that it is always enabled, go to: settings > portfolio & Apple pay > check that double click on the home page button is enabled.

I'm on windows 7 64 bit and when I try to save a site by double clicking on the icon star on the address bar, bookmark box flickers power on and off and then disappears. I did some research and found that the default theme is the cause. I installed a different theme and the problem goes away and that's why I don't know the root cause. Anyone with ideas on how to solve this problem? I like the default theme!
Try to uncheck the box next to 'use acceleration hardware when available' in the Options. Worked for me!
