Some bookmarks do not incorporate the coloured logo on the left side-why not?

A handful of my bookmarks in Bookmarks Toolbar have a blank square to the left of the title.
How do I get these to be filled in with the appropriate coloured logo?

Thanks for your reply-unfortunately it didn't work for three of the items:
MBNA credit card register home page
Admiral home insurance register home page and
Unity glasses
Can't understand this as they all had favicons on my Google bookmarks.
Any thoughts?

Whenever I opened Firefox Start Page, all my bookmarks were displayed on the left side. I accidently hit something, and now all my bookmarks are gone. Help.

Firefox has a Bookmarks Sidebar you can open and close using Ctrl+b. That's pretty easy to hit if you're trying to bold something, but if a website doesn't intercept it, then it affects your sidebar.
Was that it?

My bookmarks came up on the left side of my screen. How do I hide them?

I was just going throw my bookmarks, when all of a sudden they came up on the left side of my screen. How do I get them out of the way?

Ctrl+B will open or close the Bookmarks Sidebar.

Why did my bookmarks icon disappear and why is my bookmarks menu suddenly on the left side?

Recently, Firefox updated to 23.0.1 (beta?) and once the browser was back up, I noticed that my bookmark icon (the star) was gone. I fixed the problem easily enough by setting it back up to where it originally was. Now my problem is that when I click the icon, my menu appears on the left side of the screen rather than the right as it did previously before the update. I downgraded to 22 and that didn't fix the problem. I would really like for the menu to be back on the right side, as the left is just frustrating me. I did not find any quick fix in the customization menu, or in safe mode. Can anyone help me out?

I'd like my Bookmarks to view on the left side of page (as they used to) and I can't find how to do that. Is this possible and why have they moved?

Bookmarks are now on the right side of my browser window and I'd like to put them back on the left side. Please help.

They moved after I installed Marginize. Removing Marginize moved it back.
You have Marginize, so this is likely it.

How do you set the left hand margin when writing emails. Some characters disappear off of the left side of the page because the margin is so close to the edge

When writing emails the left hand margin is so close to the edge of the page that some characters disappear from view on the left hand of the page. How can I set the left hand margin to not be so close to the left edge of the page?

Oy. You beat your head for hours and finally concede to asking for help, only to solve it two minutes later. Here's the answer.
In the inspector, on the Layout tab, there's a checkbox that reads, "Show Thumbnail Track".
UNCHECK that box and the gutter goes away.

How do I get the bookmarks to appear on the right side of my screen? It currently displays on the right side.

in the past, when I click on the favorites icon, all my saved bookmarks would appear on the left side of my screen. For some unknown reason, it now appears on the the right side?

hello bingseto, can you test if the same is happening when you launch firefox in safe mode once - maybe a theme or extension is interfering?!

I want my bookmarks on the left side of my page always in firefox

Not had this problem before but as of this morning I cannot get my bookmarks to stay on the left side of my pages ALWAYS, (much easier!) I thought you could use ctrl/shift/B and it's not working, just bringing up the bookmarks page of options. I just want to pin my bookmarks to the left side of the pages at all times for easy access.

Press the "CTRL" and the "B" buttons at the same time.
No "shift" button is needed.

A bookmarks list has appeared on the left side of my screen and I can't get rid of it. Tried restore and even uninstalled & reinstalled Firefox 4.

I don't know what I can add. The bookmarks list is on the left side of the screen and crowds everything else to the right so that I can't read it. I've tried everything I can think of to move it or get rid of it.

How do I pin the bookmark sidebar to the left side of my screen?

How do I pin the bookmark sidebar to the left side of my screen? My bookmark sidebar (vertical on the left side of the screen) is gone. When this would happen in the past I wold F10 and then select to view (or pin...can't remember the wording of the command) the sidebar. It was always visible with my bookmarks sorted. Now that sidebar is gone and I can't figure out how to add it back. HELP!

*You can toggle the Bookmarks sidebar on/off via "View > Sidebars > Bookmarks" or Ctrl+B
*You can toggle the History sidebar on/off via "View > Sidebars > History" or Ctrl+H
Press F10 or tap the Alt key to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily if the Menu Bar is hidden.

I would like to have my bookmarks appear permantly on the left of my Firefox screen. How do I do this?

On earlier versions of Windows and Firefox I could have my internet bookmarks listed down the left side of my Firefox window.
All I seem to be able to do now is to click on the Firefox tab on the very top left of the screen and select Bookmarks/unsorted bookmarks to get a list but it isn't on my Firefox screen permanently

Adding to Tylerdowner, after you have pressed '''Ctrl+B''' and the bookmark window appears on the left side, make sure it is open at the time you exit from Firefox. On doing so, this bookmark window would reappear automatically when you start Firefox again.

Little horizontal lines at the left side of the page, printed on the HP Laserjet 4 plus?

Folks, It seems that when I print to my HP laserjet 4 plus, I see some tiny horizontal lines on the left side of the printed page, spaced 4-5 inches apart, all at the very furthest left side of the page. Is this something that I can turn off? Are they some sort of binding marks? I am printing to this printer via jet direct card, over TCP/IP, from a Windows 7 64 bit PC. I love this printer, and recently changed out the exit assembly rollers, and now works like it was new. I also have a 500 sheet drawer and a duplexer installed on it, and I would like to figure out how to get rid of those little horizontal tick marks that show up on the left side of the page. Any help or assistance is GREATLY appreciated, Thanks so much in advance!

The bookmark tab went from the right side to the left side. I did not change that. what cause the change from the right side to the left side?

The bookmark tab went from the right side to the left side. I did not change that. what cause the change from the right side to the left side? Also the the Mozilla Firefox tab on the upper left hand corner changed.
Its was a red colored tab and now its blue in color. I did not change any thing!

Hey jimmiet,
There were some recent ui changes around the downloads manager. What version where you on before? Anyway, you can customize things in Firefox really easily. Take a look at [[Customize Firefox controls, buttons and toolbars|this article on customizing Firefox]] for details. Should be a piece of cake to move the bookmarks button.
As for the color of the button, you might be in [[Private Browsing - Browse the web without saving information about the sites you visit|Private Browsing]] mode. That changes the color of the button from orange to a purplish color.

Mozilla crashed yesterday and now bookmarks are not showing along the left side of page as they did before. They are on the menu bar but hubby does not like this location. Anyway I can get it back to the left side of the page?

This spring we changed from IE to Mozilla after upgrading to Win 7. Everything has been fine with Firefox until yesterday when it crashed when I attempted to open an email. Since then the bookmarks (or favorites as my husband calls them) have not been in their usual place which was along the left side of the page. They are located in the Bookmarks bar at the top of the page but husband prefers the old IE way which we had until yesterday PM. Is there any way that we can get them back to the left side of the page other than going back to IE? Now that I have gotten used to Firefox I like it just fine.

*You can open the Bookmarks in the sidebar via View > Sidebar > Bookmarks (Ctrl+B)
*You can open the History in the sidebar via View > Sidebar > History (Ctrl+H)
Press F10 or tap the Alt key to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.
You can find toolbar buttons to open the bookmarks (star) and the history (clock) in the sidebar in the toolbar palette and drag them on a toolbar. 
Firefox 4 versions and later have two bookmark buttons with a star in the Customize window. 
One star button has a drop marker that open a Bookmark menu. 
The other star button without the drop marker opens the bookmarks in the sidebar.

Tell me how to make Ctrl-B open the bookmarks panel on the left side and NOT open Bing.

For years the Bookmarks panel on the left side would open when I press Ctrl-B. Now it opens Bing. How can I fix this?

Does the sidebar open correctly if you use View > Sidebar?
*Press the F10 key or tap the Alt key to bring up the hidden Menu bar.
There aren't any extensions listed in the System Details List that could cause this, so I'm not sure why this would happen.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
Are you sure that you aren't opening a specific bookmark in the sidebar?
Opening in the sidebar is the default for bookmarks that are created via a link or button on a website. 
You can check the properties of a bookmark via the right-click context menu in the sidebar (Ctrl+B; Command+B on Mac). 
In the Bookmarks Manager (Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks) you can click the More button in the Details pane at the bottom right.
Make sure that "Load this bookmark in the sidebar" is not selected.

Some bookmarks do not incorporate the coloured logo on the left side-why not?
