I am using a shared network computer but always use my own computer and always sign out after checking emails."Bookmark this page" option was there yesterday. Today, in its place is "edit bookmarks". If I go to any other website I can bookmark the page but cannot bookmark gmail sign in although i was able to until today. In addition, a previous bookmark for gmail sign in page just disappeared. No other bookmarks disappeared. Is this just a fluke or is someone messing with my computer?

Maybe you already have bookmarked this page.

In the current Firefox release 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 blue highlighted.
So do not get confused by the missing "Bookmark This Page" in the Bookmarks menu and seeing "Edit This Bookmark" instead.


Firefox 29 and later versions have the Australis interface that looks different than the user interface in Firefox 28 and older versions.

  • With the Australis interface the orange Firefox menu button has been replaced by the three bar Firefox Menu button at the far right end of the Navigation Toolbar
    A consequence of this new menu button is that you no longer can hide the Navigation Toolbar
  • There is a star like button to the right end of the search bar on the Navigation Toolbar to bookmark the current web page and a "Show your bookmarks" button next to it to open the Bookmarks in a drop down menu.
    You can find "Show All Bookmarks" to open the Bookmarks Manager (Library) at the bottom of this drop-down list
  • It is still possible to have the menu bar visible via the right-click context menu on the toolbars to have menus like the Bookmarks menu
