please try to go into the customization panel again and restore the layout to the default - afterwards enable the bookmarks toolbar, exit the customization mode and see if it is working correctly afterwards...

To clarify, it appears that the bar itself is there; however, I cannot drag & drop url, nor can IO right click and create folder as before. bar appears, but is non-functional

Note that "Bookmarks Toolbar Items" needs to be placed on the Bookmarks Toolbar.


Make sure toolbars like the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible.

  • "3-bar" menu button -> Customize -> Show/Hide Toolbars
  • View -> Toolbars
    You can tap the Alt key or press F10 to show the Menu Bar
  • Right-click empty toolbar area

Open the Customize window and set which toolbar items to display.

  • "3-bar" menu button -> Customize
  • check that "Bookmarks Toolbar Items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
  • if "Bookmarks Toolbar Items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the Customize palette to the Customize window to the Bookmarks Toolbar
  • if missing items are in the Customize palette then drag them back from the Customize window to the toolbar
  • if you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the Customize palette then click the Restore Defaults button in the Customize palette window to restore the default toolbar set.
