After CTRL+N for new window, bookmarks toolbar disappears on the new window

When I already have a fully, correctly functioning window with tabs running, with the Bookmarks Toolbar visible, and then I use CTRL+N to open a new window, the 2nd window does not show the Bookmarks Toolbar.
When I go to View > ToolBars, the Bookmarks Toolbar show a check. It is not there in the new window, but it in the first window. Seems like a glitch caused by CTRL+N?
This is repeatable, and has happened many times. I have 12.0 but this happened with other Firefox versions as well.

hello, can you replicate the same behaviour when you're running firefox in safe mode? it might be one of the addons interfering...

  • Every time I open Firefox 8.01, on my WinXP laptop, the "bookmarks" toolbar disappears but the checkmark in the view/toolbars menu is still checked when I reopen it, just no bookmarks toolbar showing on screen, Is There A Fix For This?

    I've tried everything including reinstalling Firefox. It began after a new WinXP update. If I go into the view file and uncheck, then check the bookmarks toolbar it shows up and functions fine but to have to do this every time I open the browser is annoying and it just started happening

    Hi,
    The "Tools" are in the old drop down menu, which are not shown by default in the new Firefox Design. To show this menu:
    Firefox Menu > Customize
    On the bottom left there will be Show/Hide Toolbars. The Menu will be listed here.

  • How do I get my bookmark toolbar back on the top instead of in a drop down box under bookmarks.

    I have a check mark in the "view bookmark toolbar" but it still doesn't show. This just changed after I turned my computer on again. When you go to bookmarks and click on "bookmark toolbar", all the websites are still there, but I want them to show up again across the top of my page. Help please!

    You can try go to your profile folder:
    *[https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profiles-where-firefox-stores-user-data Profiles]
    Close Firefox. Delete or rename the file localstore.rdf and restart Firefox and try show your bookmarks
    Also, maybe the bookmarks toolbar is in the customize window, go to '''View''' >> '''Toolbar''' >> '''Customize''' look for the bookmarks toolbar drag and drop on the toolbar and close the window

    Hi. I just downloaded Firefox 4. Some of the new features are missing such as the new "Firefox Button" and the new location for the bookmarks button. It almost looks just like Firefox 3. I am using Windows XP on this desktop computer. On my laptop, running Windows Vista, Firefox 4 has all the updates advertised. Why is this happening? How do I fix?
    Thanks

    Thanks so much!

  • In Firefox v4.0.1, custom toolbars disappear from the toolbar menu when I open a "New Window".

    1.
    I created a new toolbar in Customize... / Add New Toolbar. It's on the list of toolbars and opens up '''most times''' I start Firefox, but not ''always''. I have tested it and it is completely random.
    2.
    Same type of problem as 1., but '''''everytime''''' I use the 'New Window' feature the custom toolbar disappears from the toolbar menu and if I need to use it, I have to '''save all tabs as bookmark''' then close and reopen FireFox so I get my original window [where the toolbar shows up]. AARRRGHH.
    I've been using FF for 7 years now, so I know enough to rule out corrupted localstore.rdf, new or updated add-ons (I could be wrong though, as I often am...).
    Has this come up with other users? Am I being cursed? [lol] any help would be appreciated.

    cor-el,
    Sorry it took so long to get back to you.
    You know, you're right. I should try everything, no matter how smart I think I am!
    It's been 3 days since I deleted the localstore.rdf file and so far so good.
    Thanxs for the help

  • Bookmarks disappeared in bookmarks drop down menu and bookmarks toolbar disappeared too after upgrading

    I still have all my bookmarks so they are not lost (I can find them under 'bookmarks'>'Edit bookmarks' and also when I put them in the left side windowframe by clicking 'View'>'Sidebar'>'Bookmarks'
    I saw them appear once again in the dropdown menu but now they're gone again.
    The Firefox help page suggest to go to the 'add ons window' and select 'Extentions'>'Torbutten' but I don't even have that. They say that if you don't find the button, that means the torbutton is not installed. And then they leave you without another possibility. But I think that's only for when your bookmarks are totally lost anyway.
    I always use the drop down menu and the bookmarks toolbar so would love to get it back. Adding, erasing and moving the bookmarks in the 'edit bookmarks' window all works just fine.

    This issue can also be caused by a missing "Bookmarks Toolbar items" on the Bookmarks Toolbar.
    * Make sure that you have the "Bookmarks Toolbar" visible: "View > Toolbars"
    * Check in "View > Toolbars > Customize" that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
    * If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the Customize window onto the Bookmarks Toolbar
    * If you do not see the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" then click the "Restore Default Set" button

  • After moving my music library from my old mb to the new one, my new mb pro does not play the files evenly. It takes a break for two sec's and starts playback where it stopped. Ideas anyone?

    I may have found an answer here:

    They only thing I can assume is that my external hard drive was slow to start and iTunes defaulted to its old directory (see the last paragraph at the link above). However, once my external was recognized shouldn't everything have fixed itself?

  • Bookmarks toolbar changed from the right side of the drop-down menu to the left. How can I change it back on Firefox 4.0.1 for Mac?

    I just updated to Firefox 4.0.1. Some changes I don't like, especially that the Bookmarks toolbar opens to the left of the drop-down menu instead of the right. How can I change it?

    You may have bookmarks that have long title. Firefox 4 shows the full text of the bookmark name, so if it doesn't fit with opening to the right side the Firefox will open to the left side. You can scroll through the list and make the bookmarks with a long name shorter.

  • Bookmarks toolbar disappears every time I close the browser. Have tried all recommendations.

    I have been running Chrome from several versions back when Firefox became very slow. I am now trying to switch back to Firefox. I have 27.0.1. My bookmarks toolbar disappears every time I close the browser. I have tried all recommendations I can find including reset and renaming, etc, but nothing has cured the problem. Restore to default used to work for the current session, but now that does not work. I am about to give up and stick with Chrome as this bookmark toolbar issue is driving me nuts. I am about to try uninstalling Firefox and reinstalling. And that will be my last resort unless I get a solution to this problem. I have been a Firefox user from the very beginning up till 16 or 17 and like Firefox, but this seems to be a common occurrence from my research. BOOKMARKS TOOLBAR IS A MUST HAVE!

    Hello,
    Firefox automatically creates backups of your bookmarks, which can be helpful if your bookmarks are lost or missing. To recover them, follow the instructions below.
    #Use <u>one</u> of these methods to open the Bookmarks Library window:
    #*Click the ''[[Display the Firefox button menu instead of the menu toolbar|Firefox button]]'' to open the menu and click on ''Bookmarks''.
    #*Click the ''Bookmarks'' menu and click on ''Show All Bookmarks''.
    # At the top of the Library window, click the "Import and Backup" menu and select Restore.
    # Click the date of the bookmark backup you want to recover.
    # In the new window that appears, click OK.
    # Your bookmarks from the selected date should now be restored.
    For more information, see the [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]] article. For other solutions, see the [[Recover lost or missing Bookmarks]] article.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • Upgraded to 4.0. Bookmarks Toolbar disappeared. Can get back my changing View or in Options but I have to repeat this every time I open Firefox = a pain!

    After upgrading to 4.0, bookmarks toolbar disappeared. By clicking off Menu Toolbar I can get it to reappear (or by clicking off, clicking on Bookmarks Toolbar) , but why do I have to do this for every Firefox session? Why isn't it remembering I have Bookmarks Toolbar checked under Views?

    See:
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Corrupt_localstore.rdf
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Bootcamp and Windows 7 and 8 on the new Mac Pro (Dec 2013)

    I want to install bootcamp on my new Mac Pro (Dec 2013).
    Bootcamp says it supports Windows 7 and 8, but there is a bunch of new hardware with the new Mac Pro, so I am concerned about bootcamp support for it.
    Are there any issues with Windows 7 Pro install?  How about Windows 8 Pro?

    From what I see, only Windows 8 is supported on the new Mac Pro (Late 2013) with Bootcamp.

  • How can I keep the bookmarks toolbar open down the side?

    How can I keep the bookmarks toolbar open down the side?

    View > Sidebar, click Bookmarks to place a check mark ~~red:'''''OR'''''~~ Ctrl+B
    If the Bookmarks Sidebar is open when you Exit Firefox (File > Exit), it will be open when you start Firefox again.
