All but one of my bookmarks has disappeared from my bookmark toolbar. When I try to add them back by dragging the website icon to the bookmark toolbar, a little "T" appears but nothing else happens.

Does anyone know why one bookmark has remained? Does anyone know how to get my bookmarks back? Does anyone know why I can't add bookmarks.

Thank you, Wisda

Is "Bookmarks Toolbar Items" still present on the Bookmarks Toolbar if you check this in customization mode?


You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database (bookmarks and history) in the Firefox profile folder.

  • use "Verify Integrity" on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page

If "Verify Integrity" on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page cannot repair places.sqlite then remove all places.sqlite files Firefox profile folder. Firefox will rebuild places.sqlite and restore the bookmarks from the most recent JSON backup in the bookmarkbackups folder.

You can use the button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page.
