My bookmarks tool bar will not take me to website

I have many items on my bookmark tool bar. All of a sudden, they do not take me to the web address they used to. I have made no change to my options and cannot figure out why this is no longer working. When I mouse over the bookmark, it tells me in the lower left screen the web site assigned to the bookmark

Problems with bookmarks and history not working properly can be caused by a corrupted places.sqlite database file.
You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox profile folder.

  • My big fish and Norton tool bar will not work with fire fox 4

    My Big Fish Tool Bar and my Norton Tool Bar will not work with firefox4. However they work fine on internet explorer

    Symantec need to update their Firefox add-ons so that they are compatible with Firefox 4. They have indicated that for Norton 360 they plan to release an update to Norton 360 to support Firefox 4 in early May - http://us.norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20100720113635EN&ln=en_US
    I do not know about the time scale for updates for other Norton products. Pending the update by Symantec, if you want to use the Norton add-ons you will need to downgrade to Firefox 3.6.
    To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
    You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
    To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.

    Based upon a number of other postings about problems with the Yahoo Toolbar extension, it may not be completely compatible with Firefox 6 and may need to fixed by its developer.

  • My bookmark tool bar does not show even though I checked it under Options.

    When I go to FireFox/Help the toolbar shows. How can I get the tool bar to show?

    Part of me understands the need to have purchases protected.  I hope this does not get more and more complicated for "within family use".  It is nice to buy music and share it with my wife, as we used to do with books prior to the iBooks "upgrade" - which mostly consisted of making it impossible to share books.  Thanks though for your response;  I was hoping for some luck and that maybe I had missed some simple step.  To Apple:  lighten up.
    Best regards and thanks again for taking the time -

  • Tool bar will not respond

    All of the Fox Fire tool bars, drop down menus (ex: Tools or File) just have a blank box.
    Also, I can not minimize or close Fox Fire without using the taskmaster "end program" function.
    If I restart Fox Fire everything works properly for a few minutes, then the same problem re-occurs.
    All other internet programs work fine. (ex: Google, Explorer..)
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == After updating to lastest Fox Fire version

    You may need to use '''[[Safe Mode]]''' (click on "Safe Mode" and read) to localize the problem. Firefox Safe Mode is a diagnostic mode that disables Extensions and some other features of Firefox. If you are using a theme, switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes <u>'''before'''</u> starting Safe Mode. When entering Safe Mode, do not check any items on the entry window, just click "Continue in Safe Mode". Test to see if the problem you are experiencing is corrected.
    See:
    '''[[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]'''
    '''[[Troubleshooting plugins]]'''
    '''[[Basic Troubleshooting]]'''
    If the problem does not occur in Safe-mode then disable all of your Extensions and Plug-ins and then try to find which is causing it by enabling <u>'''one at a time'''</u> until the problem reappears. <u>'''You MUST close and restart Firefox after EACH change'''</u> via File > Restart Firefox (on Mac: Firefox > Quit). You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window.

  • My webroot tool bar will not install firefox. How to Help needed. I did the reinstall from the start button in windows. Thanks

    The toolbar for my webroot account will not install on firefox for some reason. It remembers my accounts and passwords along with the sign in pages of my accounts.

    It works again, thanks. It was only a small thing but so annoying. Do you know why this happened so I can maybe avoid it in future?

  • Address bar will not go to any website that I type, just opens a blank page.

    When I type an address into the address bar, it just opens a new blank page. If I type in google.com, google, or www.google.com it still does it. I have to type it into the search bar and then choose it from the list that comes up. The only addresses that work are ones that are remembered in my history.

    Tried to fix the problem opening FF safe with no luck
    I 've disabled all addons and plugins with no luck too
    Addresses that does not work: http:// chrome:// file:// ...
    '''Also search box does not work and there aren't any engines available.'''

  • How do I get a Vista 64 bit XP machine to show a "+" icon on the tab bar to "Open a new tab" and the "Open a new tab" icon on the far right of the Bookmarks tool bar?

    I have Firefox 4.0.1 installed on two laptops, one with Windows Vista, 64 bit and the other with Windows XP. Both machines have the "Open a new tab" icon on the far right of the Bookmarks tool bar. The XP machine also has a + icon on the tab bar to "Open a new tab" while the Vista machine does not have that + icon. I like using that; is there any way to get it on the Vista machine?

    After weeks of trying, I stumbled on the solution:
    # Right-click on an empty section of the Tab Strip, select Customize... and the Customize Toolbar window will open.
    # At the bottom of the Customize Toolbar window, there are additional options for changing the appearance of the icons in your toolbars. From the Show drop-down menu, you can choose what to display in the toolbars — Icons, Text, or Icons and Text together. By default, Firefox just shows Icons.
    # Select Icons and Text
    # When you are finished making changes, click Done to close the Customize Toolbar window.

  • Tool Bar is not active & some projects state "No Masters"

    Hi,
    My edit tool bar is not active and some of my projects state that there are no Masters. The photos in the project folders are the "masters". I feel I may have clicked on something by accident or unchecked something. Any suggestions?
    Thank you!

    I think you have the Quick Preview active. Right hand bottom corner of the viewer. A little box will be yellow. Click on it, and the adjustments are then available.
    Always use quick Preview when looking through your images. Clicking on one of the tools at the bottom of the viewer will also take Quick Preview off.

    I have CC and while attempting Light Effects, the Light Effects Layer will appear in the layers panel, but the option bar will not appear and neither will the Properties panel. All my preferences are set correct, and my computer has a compatible video card and RAM. Please help!
    I tried to delete the layer attempt again. I am in a Photoshop class, but the work is all online, so all my teacher is going to do is send me to this site. I am trying to edit a photo for this class, and without this working, i go to filter>render>light effects. the bar and panel will pop up for about 2 seconds, then disappear. How do i get the options bar and properties panel to display?

    I was about to suggest resetting LE from the Workspace drop-down top right corner, but if you can't see the Options Bar, I guess that is not going to happen.  The normal Tool reset is grey out for LE, so it might be a case of resetting Preferences.

    Windows — Hold down Shift Ctrl Alt immediately after starting Photoshop
    Mac — Hold down Shift Cmd Opt immediately after starting Photoshop

  • How do I get the bookmarks in the bookmarks tool bar to actually display in FF4?

    In V4, when I turn the bookmarks tool bar on as described in the help, Firefox creates a blank row in the tool bar area, but the bookmarks in my toolbar still do not show. I've tried to turn on display of the tool bar through both the Options menu and by right clicking in the tool bar area - both approaches create a blank row in the tool bar area, but neither actually shows the bookmarks stored in the tool bar.

    Answering my own question, I right clicked the empty tool bar, went to Customize, Add New Tool Bar - the bookmarks tool bar suddenly appeared and no new tool bar was added. Clearly there is a glitch in displaying the book marks tool bar, but at least I have it back!

  • Tool Bar is not working

    I upgraded my browser. I used Mozilla firefox. Ever since then my tool bar does not work. say if I wanted to go to www.facebook.com. I type in the web address and it will not even go to the site, or the drop down menu

    If you are successfully running Firefox in Safe Mode, this might be an indication that you have too many, or simply have any out of date, Add-ons which creates a too much of a workload for your system.
    You can find out which version of Firefox you are running by choosing About Firefox from the Help entry in the Menu Bar.

  • Address bar will not work

    The address bar will not load the page I typed, nor will the search bar work. I have used the mouse to click and enter to load the page but nothing happens.

    That issue can be caused by the AVG Safe Search extension

  • Firefox 4: the drop down menus in the top menu bar will not appear in Google pages.

    ''locking as a duplicate - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/808729''
    Firefox 4: the drop down menus in the top menu bar will not appear in Google pages. For example, when I click "more" it is like clicking a dead link. Nothing happens. When I click the "tools" icon or my email address to log out, same thing.

    Could you do the following please.
    In the location bar at the top, type '''about:config''' and hit Enter
    In the filter at the top, copy/paste the following setting:
    '''browser.urlbar.maxRichResults'''
    If the figure on the right is a single number, or a minus figure i.e. '''-1''', right click it, choose '''Modify''', remove the current setting and replace it with the figure "'''12'''".
    Then close Firefox and restart it again.
    I went to Google Maps, but as you can see from the screenshot, directions appear to be working.
    You could also try creating a new Profile. See [[Managing profiles]]
