"edit bookmark(delete bookmark)" is displayed on the toolbar. I cannot get "bookmark this page" to appear.
I have tried to work through all the toolbar solutions suggested here without success. I just downloaded firefox today so I assume it is current. Thank you for any help. January 19 2012
When you click the star at the end of the location bar the first time firefox adds the location as a bookark. The dropdown will be headed edit bookmark. Once you have done that the first time if you click the star again the dropdown again shows as edit bookmark, but the next option down and dipplayed is remove bookmark.
Use keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Shift + B to display allyour bookmarks and seewhat you have actually added.

I Bought a iPad and when I turn it on I get the hello scree, then the language page, then the country page then the fourth page says must sign in with Apple id and password and it shows the part of the persons I'd shaded out in grey. It says I need this because it activated my iPad. I cannot go any further than this page. I cannot go to settings or anything.
HOw do I get the device to delete the strangers I'd on iCloud and find my iPad So I can set up my iPad?You won't be able to activate it. It is "Activation Locked". Return it for a refund.

What happened to the "bookmark this page" link on the right-click menu?
I used to right-click most anywhere on a webpage and the option to choose any bkmrk folder, or create a new subfolder. There was no message stating "page bookmarked"; I would select where I wanted to file the bkmrk and the bkmrk would be there. Simple concept. worked well. Was efficient bcs you never had to reorient to any other part of the screen, or at least not the periphery. R-click --> "bookmark this page" menu appears as if it were a context menu. I just downloaded and installed FF 32.0.2. The
r-click feature I speak of disappeared with the upgrade just before this one.Thanks. I think I clicked on that somewhere in the proceedings, but maybe not. i agree with several other posters, though; a lot of changes generally do not seem necessary or to significantly improve anything. However I am a psychologist, not an IT pro and maybe I just don't understand.
What was wrong with it the way it was, I wonder....
Thanks again. I won't lose any sleep over it. -
"Bookmark this page" disappeared from the Bookmarks dropdown menu after I added a bookmark. The help pages I have consulted say that "Bookmark this page" is sometimes replaced by "Edit bookmarks" but I have never seen this choice.
What do you see in the Bookmarks menu?
Does it make a difference of what is shown (it should) if you open the Bookmarks menu with the mouse or use the Alt+B shortcut?
You can try to reinstall Firefox in case something has gone wrong with an update.
Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
*Download the full Firefox installer and save the file to the desktop<br>https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
If possible uninstall your current Firefox version to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove "personal data" when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords including data in profiles created by other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
*(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure NOT to remove personal data when you uninstall Firefox as that will remove all Firefox profile folders and you lose your personal data.

Bookmark this page has disappeared with the update
i have installed the firefox update......... when i try to bookmark a page.............. the window only
shows me how to delete this bookmark.............. what can i do to revive "bookmark this page"??In current Firefox releases the "Bookmark This Page" menu entry in the Bookmarks menu changes to "Edit This Bookmark" once you have bookmarked the page and the star on the Navigation Toolbar is highlighted blue.
So do not get confused by the missing "Bookmark This Page" in the Bookmarks menu and seeing "Edit This Bookmark" instead if you try to bookmarks a page that is already bookmarked.
You can make a extra copy of a bookmark by dragging the link to a folder in the bookmarks sidebar (View Bookmarks Sidebar) or by doing a copy and paste in the Bookmarks Manager (Library). -
What happened to "bookmark this page" selection in the "show your bookmarks" menu on the right?
Now I have to:
1) click again on the stupid blue star to get the menu to place my new bookmark where I choose to instead of have it go to unsorted bookmarks...
OR
2) bring up or have up the menu bar and click on the "bookmarks" menu choice of "bookmark this page" which brings up what I'd call the choice or sort menu that lets me access my bookmarks menu...
...where I wanted to go to create a bookmark AND I get to select "choose", which is what I used to do when adding ANY bookmark.
I want the "bookmark this page" selection back on the "show your bookmarks" list on the right...where it belongs. Why does everyone want to keep hiding the useful tools?
Firefox 29 stinks and I've had nothing but problems from the beginning...and since making the mistake of resetting.
I now have a folder of stuff that I have no clue what to do with as, upon resetting, I got "Oooops this is embarrassing, we're having a problem" or something. Any clues about what to do with all that "junk" (now, to me) might also be helpful.I was used to being able to select the folder to place my bookmark without going into an edit session. This is as useless now as windows "libraries"

The removal of the "Bookmark this page" selection was a huge mistake. None of the answers really solve the issue. Click the star and then click it again so you can edit the bookmark then move it to the folder you want, or install this add-on to manage your bookmarks. The real fix for this issue is simply to put the selection back. People want simple and when they have something that works well they don't want it to change just because the programmer wanted to do it differently. So when will this functionality be returning?
* If you click the ★ Star Icon once, the bookmark ends up in the Unsorted Bookmarks folder.
* If you double-click the ★ Star Icon, you get to pick where to place the bookmark.
* If you right-click (or Ctrl+click on a Mac) an empty area of the web page and choose Bookmark This Page, the bookmark ends up in the Bookmarks Menu folder and you get to pick where to place it.
* If you press Ctrl+D (Mac: Command+D), the bookmark ends up in the Bookmarks Menu folder and you get to pick where to place it.
* You can click and drag the site icon (usually a globe or a padlock) on the left side of the address bar onto either the Bookmarks Toolbar, the Bookmarks Sidebar (Ctrl+B; Mac: Command+B), or the Library (Ctrl+Shift+B; Mac: Command+Shift+B; Linux: Ctrl+Shift+O).
The following add-on makes bookmarking easier in various ways. Among other things, it's able to remember the last used folder.

I see no reason to believe menu items that were deemed clutter will be reintroduced — especially when there are multiple ways to perform the action in question. -
How can I bookmark a page that doesn't allow the dropdown menu to choose "bookmark this Page"
I am on the web page Rothlynn.com and am not getting the option"Bookmark this page" from the drop down menu. How can I bookmark?
Click the star at the right end side of the location bar once to bookmark the current site and click the highlighted star a second time to open the "Edit This Bookmark" window and move the bookmark to another folder or edit the name.

As in question i.e:
"Bookmark this page" option in Bookmark drop downs is replaced by "edit this bookmark" option - so can't add a bookmark now. Recent problem - no problems last week. A recent Firefox update perhaps?You can also open the bookmarks sidebar via the "View Bookmarks Sidebar" button in the "Show your bookmarks" button next to the star and drag the tab or "[[Site Identity Button|Site Identity Button]]" (globe/padlock) to a bookmarks folder in the sidebar.
*You can toggle the Bookmarks sidebar off/on via "View > Sidebar > Bookmarks" or "Ctrl+B" (Command+B on Mac) -
After I select "bookmark this page" from the bookmarks menu, and then select "show all the bookmarks folders" with the pulldown arrow, the bookmarks folder list appears but the right side and the bottom are cut off so that no buttons are showing. Trying to resize the window does not work. Double clicking on the desired folder selects the folder name for editing, however, the caption at the top says "bookmark saved" and sometimes it is actually where I would like it to be added.
After finding that I did not have a chrome folder, or userchrome.css file, I installed ChromEdit Plus. Through this app I was able to create a chrome folder and the userchrome.css file using the information from finitarry. The problem still existed. I then edited userchrome.css changing the values to "min-width:800px !important; min-height:800px !important; " The results were; same problem, just bigger. This code changes the folderview pane in the add bookmarks window. The problem is the pane expands larger than the window. Let me see if I can clairify, When you select "bookmark this page" the add bookmark "window" opens. to open the folderview pane, click on the down arrow to the right of the folder pulldown menu. The window is not expanding to contain the pane correctly and pushes all the other controls off the screen.

Why can I not separate the stupid "Bookmark This Page" Star from "Show your Bookmarks"? I never use that star and now it's all I click on when trying to open my Bookmarks. Very annoying
If you want to remove the ★ star icon,
# Install Stylish and restart Firefox when prompted.
#* https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/stylish/
# Click the ≡ Menu Button and choose Add-ons.
# In the Add-ons Manager, click User Styles on the left.
# Click the Write New Style button at the top. Paste the following in the text box, give the style a name, then click the Save button.
#* You may need to adjust the margin values to get the Ctrl+D bookmark popup aligned properly on your system.

If you don't want to install an add-on, you can use the ''userChrome.css'' file instead, but I don't recommend it.

When i drag a URL over to my bookmarks or click on bookmark this page (on a Mac BTW) it doesn't let me do it. Not even with the star. Like when i try to bookmark some cell phone forums and gamefaq boards it says "website did not supply identity information" and it doesn't even let me bookmark that page unless i go to a different part of the site. Is there any type of fix for this???
Hi punisherbv,
Are you using the beta? it's not fully secure, so try using Firefox 3 instead. If you are already using Firefox 3, it seems like what Firefox is saying is correct- the site is not supplying identity information. So what you could do is go to that exact site, then click on the little golden lock at the very corner of the page. Then, enter the 'permissions' tab and allow everything. Exit, and then try bookmarking the page! -
I create about 25 -50 new bookmarks daily for my business. So, it would seem user friendly to put that command at the top of the scroll down list. Maybe I am unique and others want to "show all bookmarks" repeatedly. I can't understand why one would need to do that more often than add multiple bookmarks on a daily basis. i look forward to your response,. Respectfully MC
cor-el, as you said, that solution puts the "show all bookmarks" all the way at the bottom. How do you either make "bookmark this page" first without changing the order of the other options or force "show all bookmarks" to be second instead of last, the way the menu was before?

I've been trying to find a way to do this since I updated to IOS 7, and I've just found the solution/explanation, even tho is a bit heavy to carry out.
IOS 6 creates custom labels and save them giving you the option to delete them.
IOS 7 creates custom labels but don't save them, so there is no need to have the option to delete them.
But here comes the problem, if you have some custom labes saved in you Iphone / Ipad with IOS 6 and you update it to IOS 7, the device will keep those labels saved, but you wont be able to delete them.
I realized this by going to contacts on Icloud. There those labels that I had on my devices weren't there. So simply restoring your device and configuring it as a new one to later sync your Icloud Contacts, will solve the problem.
I know this post is old, but I might just try this with iOS 8. I have outdated custom labels that annoy me, because I still seem them in the list as options. If I get desperate enough, I may try your solution.
