How can I rename a bookmark or bookmark folder

I don't need to ask this question any more because I found the answer. But I couldn't comment on the answer without registering. And I couldn't register without asking a question. That seems like an unnecessarily long-winded way to register. If you want to see my comments find other threads on this topic. If you (or I) can't find other threads then my suggestion to rename is:
1. Click View/sidebar/ then select bookmarks. All your bookmarks will then be permanently displayed in a sidebar.
2. Find the bookmark or folder you want to rename
3. Right click and select "PROPERTIES"
4. Type new name over the existing name
5. Click on "save"

Hi Gordon50501,
You would have to manage the bookmark folders on a Desktop computer. [[How do I set up Firefox Sync?]] would allow you to do this.
You can remove individual bookmarks by tap an holding on one of the bookmarks and selecting "Remove"

How can I rename my Bookmark folders?

I am using Firefox V 25.0.1 on my Mac with OS X V 10.8.5. I used to be able to rename folders, but have been unable to do so. I have no "Bookmarks Manager" or anything identified as a "Library." I have no "Manage my folder" menu tab or "Properties" tab and I am unable to highlight the folder name to rename it. I see nothing under the "filled-in star" in the sidebar. Any way I can rename a sub-folder?

Here is the easiest way. Right click the bookmark (on the taskbar) then click properties. In the small window that will pop-up, you will see the current name in blue highlight - so change it to whatever short name you want it to be - then save. All done!!

How can I have ONE bookmark folder and no tool bar/option, but alphabetized?

i don't want bookmark tool bar, all I want is "show all bookmarks" alphabetized

Usually if you choose Show All Bookmarks, Firefox opens a separate window called the Library. Is that what you meant?
As far as I remember, Firefox doesn't have a setting to keep your bookmarks alphabetical as you add them, but you can alphabetize them in the Library dialog. In the left column, right-click Bookmarks Menu, then Sort by Name.
And you can close the Bookmarks Toolbar. Right-click a blank area of the tab bar (or the new tab "+" button on that bar) and "uncheck" Bookmarks Toolbar.
To access your bookmarks without the toolbar, you can use any of the following:
* Bookmarks menu on the classic menu bar (Alt+b) or on the compact menu behind the orange Firefox button
* Bookmarks button (drop-down list) on a toolbar ''(if the classic menu bar is not displayed)''
* Bookmarks Sidebar (Ctrl+b)
Does that help?

I have multpulpe Firefox profiles on one windows user account, how do I move a bookmark folder to a different Firefox profile on the same windows user account?

''locking this thread as duplicate, please continue at [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1015870 /questions/1015870]''
I'm trying to organize my different Firefox profiles like into profiles such as, Jeep Stuff, Shopping, things to build, computers, ect. So how can I move a bookmark folder to an other Firefox profile bookmark bar. Or how can I move all my bookmarks into one area to organize them and then place them into the different Firefox profiles?

What happens if you rename the iPhone "Wife" when it shows up as "Hubby", then choose a different set of apps/playlists to sync with? iTunes is supposed to be able to manage multiple devices, each with their own selection of content. Perhaps you "restored" "Wife" with a backup from "Hubby" when you first set things up which is now causing confusion.
To create a new library press and hold down the shift key as you click the icon to start iTunes and keep holding shift until asked to choose or create a library. You need to use the same technique to switch back.

How can i recover my bookmarks and saved passwords?

i have accidentally uninstalled Firefox software. how can i recover my bookmarks and saved passwords for the various sites. Please help on this regard. I'm in a serious trouble now.

If you have removed your personal data when uninstalling Firefox then the Firefox profile folder that store your Firefox personal data has been removed.
If you do not have a backup of the files in this folder then your only option is to try to recover this data with an undelete utility like Recuva.

How can I display my bookmarks toolbar with text only, but still have the rest of my toolbars (search, navigation, tabs, etc) display icons?

I have a bunch of bookmarks in my bookmarks toolbar. How can I make my bookmarks toolbar display only text but have my other toolbars (navigation, etc.) display only icons? It seems like I have to choose between icon, icon and text, or text for all of the toolbars. I want it to look like it did with my old version of Firefox. All my bookmarks in the toolbar fit, but now they dont because I cant get rid of the icons.

You can do that with the Bookmarks Deiconizer extension - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/bookmarks-deiconizer

I am not able to access Firefox under one user account on my computer so I created another account. How can I transfer the bookmarks from the old account?

I use windows Vista and I cannot open Firefox under one user account (I keep receiving the "firefox profile cannot be loaded . . ." error message) on my computer so I created another account. How can I transfer the bookmarks from the old account?

NOTE: you can skip this 1st step.
Step 1
I'm on Win7 so the paths might be slightly different... C:\Users\(YOUR PC ACCOUNT)\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\bnelgkol.default\bookmarkbackups ... Find the "bookmarks-[DATE].json" you want and copy it to the profile you want. You may want to change the date to a name you will recognize.
Step 2
Then on your browser "Bookmarks>Show All Bookmarks or Ctrl+Shift+B ". This will bring up the Bookmark Organizer, I think they call it Library now. From there click "Import & Back up>Restore" this will bring up a drop down with your back ups. If you followed step 1, find the json you added and select it. If you skipped step 1, from "Import & Back up>Restore" select "Choose File..." Then browser for the json you want to import. Which should be in a similar location as mentioned in step 1.
NOTE: "AppData" is a hidden folder, will have to set show hidden folders to be able to see it.

I re-installed XP and kept the old program files on another drive, how can I transfer my bookmarks list to the new Firefox ?

I re-installed XP and kept the old program files on another drive, how can I transfer my bookmarks list to the new Firefox ?
I tried shifting the Profile folder contents from the old to the new, that seemed to work but I kept getting a message that my security was affected and that the problem could be in that folder so I shifted it back.

Hello Kencrews,
When you connect the iPod to the computer and iTunes is authorized for your Apple ID, then you will get a prompt to transfer the purchases from the device to the computer. Keep in mind this will only transfer purchased items from the iTunes Store.
Here is a helpful article to assist getting that done.

How can I import Firefox bookmarks, now stored in User folder on same (new) PC, into Firefox?

How can I import Firefox bookmarks, now stored in User folder on same (new) PC, into Firefox? I have exported the Firefox bookmarks from my old PC into a [Windows 8] folder on my new PC.
When I use the Firefox import facility, it will only import one bookmark at a time - and then it bookmarks all the main pages on the bookmarked website, not just the one which I originally bookmarked. It also does not import the information stored in the bookmark tag.

Sure thing.
# Open the run dialog by holding the Windows key and pressing R
# Type <code>%appdata%</code> into the run window and press ok
# Open the ''Mozilla'' folder
# Open the ''Firefox'' folder
# Open the ''Profiles'' folder
# Copy the folder that is located in this folder to a USB drive
# Install and run Firefox on the new computer
# Close Firefox
# Repeat steps 1 to 5 on the new computer
# Open the folder that you copied from the old computer
# Copy the contents of that folder into the folder located inside of the new computer's profile folder
# Allow Windows to replace any duplicate folders with the ones that you are copying onto the computer is prompted

How can I show the bookmarks toolbar in Firefox 6 all the time?

The bookmarks toolbar is hidden by default in Firefox 6, and "view bookmarks toolbar" will only show it until a link is clicked or the tab is changed. How can I display the bookmarks toolbar in Firefox 6 all the time?

On your toolbar area right click an empty space and open Customize.
Then drag the bookmark icon up to your toolbar area and drop.

How Can I get my bookmarks From My Sync account without my sync key after a hard drive crash?

My Computer Hard Drive crashed before I could back up my Sync Key or add another device. How can I get My bookmarks from my sync account without resetting the sync key and wiping my data?

Not from Mozilla. Nobody knows your Sync Key except for you. <br />
Is that hard drive usable at all? Like as an external disk in a USB hard drive enclosure?
If so, you can recover your Firefox data from that drive. <br />
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Recovering+important+data+from+an+old+profile
Your old Profile is located here in Vista & Win7: <br />
''drive'':\Users\''Windows login user name''\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\''profile_name'' <br />
Make sure that you unhide "Hidden files and folder" in the Control Panel > Folder Options -> View

How can I consolidate "Favorites, "Bookmarks," etc. from various browsers?

I came here to close out or rephrase a question that wasn't getting any replies, but I discovered that it wasn't here. Maybe that's for the good, because the situation, and the question, has changed.
I have Internet Explorer, Safari, and Firefox. All of them have "bookmarks" or "Favorites". Eventually, I intend to use Safari as my default browser, but it's not ready yet, and I'll be using Internet Explorer until it is, mainly because I can again access Foxnews and Amazon with it, but not with the other two browsers.
I'd like to eliminate Firefox for now. How can I transfer the "Bookmarks" I have in that browser to Safari?

You can use a program like URL
Manager Pro.
Thanks, I'll check it out. Incidentally, I didn't respond earlier, because I just saw your message at 8:59 PM, 8/15/06.
