Some sites I can't drag and drop to the bookmark toolbar.
My bank recently changed their login page so I had to update my bookmark for them.
For some reason, when I drag the site icon onto the bookmark toolbar it doesn't add the site but instead puts a line with an arrow pointing down on top of it (almost looks like a Microsoft word editing markup).
Some sites work fine, for instance I was able to drag cnn.com to my bookmark toolbar and it worked as expected.

Is there sufficient room on the Bookmarks Toolbar for the title of that bookmark?
Otherwise the bookmark might get moved to the overflow drop-down list and you need to click the chevron and possibly edit the title to make it shorter.
Hmmm, good try but there is only a couple of bookmarks on the toolbar and the "Cheveron" does not appear to be click able or editable.
Here is the site I am trying to add to the toolbar:
No problem to drag the tab on the Bookmarks Toolbar to bookmark the page.
Hmmm, perhaps time to remove and re-install firefox
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
- Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
- Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window
Looks like safe mode didn't make a difference either.
Does it work if you drag it into the Bookmarks Sidebar > Bookmarks Toolbar folder?
Ctrl + B to open the Bookmarks Sidebar, then open the Bookmarks Toolbar folder.

If you already have that book mark, that might be the problem.
Try this. go to the log-in page. Click the bookmark star. Then click it again. A small popup should come up with the bookmark's current information. On the Folder line, go to the far right and press the down arrow. Select the bookmarks toolbar.
