Add Bookmark toolbar icon

I recently upgraded to Safari 6.1 and the toolbar no longer has a + to add bookmarks. I know that you can add bookmarks by going to the Bookmarks dropdown menu and choosing command D. But is there a way to get the plus sign onto the toolbar the way it was in the older version of Safari?
I have tried Customize Toolbar but none of the icon choices are "Add Bookmark." I see New Tab, Home, History, etc. but not "Add Bookmark."
Ideas?
Thank you!

I no longer use that version so I'm not sure, but if there is a Share button it may bring up the contextual menu choice Add Bookmark. It's double the steps, but the same function. Command-d on your keyboard might be the simplest option.

How do I remove the bookmark toolbar icons for websites? After updating to Firefox 22, add-ons don't help.

In the Bookmark Toolbar, the icons for websites take up too much space and are distracting. I used to use the Bookmarks - Deiconizer add-on but after updating to Firefox 22 it doesn't work anymore.
I tried adjusting the userChrome.css as in other posts but that does not work.
Please help!

Hi haweyext,
Did you see this thread from yesterday:
[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/964732 How do I keep the icons out of my Bookmarks Toolbar (tried Bookmarks Deiconizer) even after downloading files?]
If userChrome.css isn't working (note: you need to exit and restart Firefox before it takes effect), you can apply that rule to Firefox using the Stylish extension instead.
Does any of that help?

How do I delete just the firefox bookmarks but not the the bookmarks toolbar icons

What kind of problems did you get after installing the extension?
You can try to remove the history manually in the History Manager by doing a search for a colon.
How many history items do you have to remove?
If you only want to do this once or occasionally then you can consider to use this code:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/User:Dickvl/JavaScript_Error_Console#Expire_History_By_Days
You will have to calculate the number of days that you want to keep to remove only history items from 2013 and older (365+31+28+26)
You can open the Browser Console (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer).
Paste the JavaScript code in the command line and press the Enter key to run the code.
*Toggle the devtools.chrome.enabled pref on the about:config page to true to enable the command line
*https://developer.mozilla.org/Tools/Browser_Console#Browser_Console_command_line

day = parseInt(obj.value);

his.removeVisitsByTimeframe(0,(new Date().setHours(0,0,0,0) - day * 86400000) * 1000);
}else{ prs.alert(null,txt,"Error Parsing Days: "+obj.value); }

If hat doesn't work then you may have a problem with the places.sqlite database file and you may have to reset places.sqlite.

You can move (copy/paste) history items that you want to keep to a bookmarks folder.

Now i cannot see my bookmarks toolbar icons in firefox 4, i could before but now the images have dissapeared, i can still use the bookmarks, but have to wait for the box to come up explaining wich link it is to know what im choosing

i had my bookmarks tab set up to show no names of bookmarks just the icons, the button is still there but i cant see any icon, the link works fine, the only issue here is the icon does not show so i cannot decipher between the links unless i hover over each button and wait for the message details

Did you edit the names to clear them or did you use other means like an extension or code in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/UserChrome.css userChrome.css] ?
Many extensions haven't been updated yet to work properly in Firefox 4.0

I had icons for all bookmarks in my other browser, so how do I get them all to appear in the Mozilla bookmark toolbar alongside the name?

I like the icons alongside the bookmark name. It appears that when the bookmark connects, some of the icons get automatically imported - e.g. Google, while others do not, e.g. Southwest Airlines. All of my bookmarks had icons in IE, so I assumed Mozilla would pick them up also. Is this a problem with the bookmarked website exporting the icon to Mozilla, or Mozilla polling the website to obtain the icon to display on the toolbar?

No change in my bookmark toolbar icons, using the add-on above. Again, most of my bookmarks in Firefox have the icon, but others, e.g. Southwest Airlines, Comerica Bank (i.e. large companies that I'd expect Firefox to grab the icons). Clearly IE does something different than firefox to import the icon, otherwise they'd be the same across theboard.

How do I create a larger on-screen bookmarks toolbar? I need a second row of icons.

I've edited the names on my bookmarks toolbar icons to provide room for more icons (22 in place), but still have around 18 key bookmarks 'stacked' in a pull down menu on the right side of the toolbar.
What I'd really like to do is add a 'second row' bookmarks toolbar under the existing one so that my most-used bookmarks show up as icons all the time, rather than be stuck with using a pull down menu.
I need my key bookmark icons available as visuals all the time.
I can't locate any command in Firefox that allows two (or more) rows of bookmarks toolbar to be available in the Firefox window. Could the bookmarks toolbar be changed to allow the user to grab the bottom edge and pull down to create a wider toolbar that shows all the icons?
Would be nice if Mozilla could fix this...

The icons on my bookmarks toolbar are HUGE, don't know how this happened; how do I fix this? Have tried Googling for the answer, no luck. HELP!!!

One day I opened up my firefox browser and noticed my bookmarks toolbar icons are huge and stretched out. I'm completely unaware as to how this happened. I can hardly tell what they are and all of them no longer fit on the toolbar. Please, help me fix this annoyance. I'm usually pretty good at figuring it out myself, but I am completely stumped by this one.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window or otherwise make changes.

How do I make the buttons on the bookmarks toolbar smaller?

I'd like to have more space in the toolbar by removing the extra space around the icon thus making the button smaller. As it is now I have 3/16 of an inch of space between each icon, when I mouse over each there is a greyish button behind each icon using up valuable space. I've searched Google for this but was unsuccessful at finding anything related to this exact issue...
Is there a way to remove this wasted space and have just the icon itself as the button like it was in FF3?
Is there an "About:config: entry that addresses this?
An add-on maybe?

I don't know what CSS is used on a Mac to style that button.
You can try the below posted code in userChrome.css below the @namespace line.

You can use the ChromEdit Plus or Stylish extension to have easier access to the customization files.

I downloaded Macfee security and parental control. The settings have gone back to basic settings but if I try to customise the toolbar by add the "home" icon or adding "contact" to bookmarks until I close and when I open they are gone. Any ideas

Make that four.
If you have any commercially advertised/available antivirus software installed on your Mac, completely uninstall this per the instructions on the AV developer's website.
Antivirus software can slow down the normal operation of OS X and can negatively affect OS X performance and operation.
Do you have apps like MacKeeper or any other maintenance apps like CleanMyMac 1 or 2, TuneUpMyMac or anything like these apps, installed on your Mac? These types of apps, while they appear to be helpful, can do too good a job of data "cleanup" causing the potential to do serious data corruption or data deletion and render a perfectly running OS completely dead and useless leaving you with a frozen, non-functional Mac.
Plus, these type of apps aren't really necessary. They really aren't.
There are manual methods to clear off unnecessary data off of your Mac that are safer and you have complete control over your Mac and not just leave a piece of auto cleaning software in charge of clearing off data off of your Mac.
Their potential of causing OS X issues outweighs the implied good and benefits these types of hard drive or memory "cleaning" apps are written to do.
Plus, the software companies that write these apps make it hard to easily uninstall these apps if something DOES go wrong and these apps work in a way where you have no recovery or revert function to return your Mac back to its former, working state in the event something does go wrong.
It is best to never, EVER download and install these types of apps.
The risk to your system and data is too great a risk!
Search the web to learn how to correctly and properly uninstall these kinds of apps.
They all uninstall differently.

How do I change/add icons on the bookmark toolbar?

I'm really new to Firefox and having a little trouble customizing the appearance. On the bookmark toolbar, some "buttons" have icons that represent the website...google, for instance, has the blue square with "g" in the center, duckduckgo has the duck head icon. Some websites however don't automatically show an icon on the bookmark button. Some show nothing, while others show a dotted square. Is there anyway to set an icon for these buttons? I can do that using IE but can't seem to figure out how to on Firefox.

It works but is nothing like the original solution.
Its a pity that the Firefox Team broke the add-on repeatedly and never bothered to fix the base issue which is the adding and changing of the bookmarks icon should be a BASE feature of Firefox!

How can I Add/Change Icon's for Bookmarks in Bookmarks toolbar?

My bookmarks toolbar at the moment has several links in it, most with just the icon(such as the YouTube logo). But some won't come up with icons, so I have to put a name next to it.
I was wondering how I would go about adding an Icon there, so I can get rid of the text.

How can i use text only instead of text plus the folder icon in the bookmarks toolbar; older firefox allowed this.

I prefer using text only instead of text plus a folder icon in the bookmarks toolbar because it used less space and I can display more bookmark folders in that toolbar. Is that possible in Firefox 4.0? It was possible in the earlier versions of Firefox. If it is possible in Firefox 4.0 how do I do that? Thank you.

First install the "Stylish:" extension then you have thousands of styles available to choose from, most consist of only a few lines, and you can modify them to suit yourself.

After an upgrade, bookmark toolbar revert to labels as well as icons. How do I get back to icons alone?

Eventually (I'm assuming after the NEXT upgrade or so), the icons return minus labels. Since I'm using Firefox on a Mac, I'm assuming that there are differences and that they eventually catch up as far as functionality is concerned. In the meantime, however, I have too many bookmarks in the toolbar to be visible. Which creates some frustration - and my blood pressure is high enough, thank you. : )

Look at your Extensions (''Add-ons > Extensions''). It appears in the information that you submitted with your question (click "More system details" to the right of your question) that '''''Roomy Bookmarks Toolbar''''' is disabled, as are several other extensions

How do I set my bookmark toolbar to text and all other toolbars to icons?

It seems I can change all toolbars to either be text or icons. I want the look of Firefox 3. In Firefox 3 the bookmarks toolbar was text only wile the navigation toolbar was icons. I can't figure out how to have my Back/Forward/Home buttons be icons with my Bookmarks in the toolbar be text only.

'''Bookmarks Toolbar Add-ons''':
*https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bookmarks-deiconizer/ (performs just that one function)

'''To show "icons only" on toolbars''' (other than Bookmarks Toolbar), follow the instructions in the article below to open the "Customize Toolbar" window, the at the bottom left, change "Show" to "Icons", then click "Done" at the bottom right of the "Customize Toolbar" window.
