Why do my Bookmarks added to home page all change to the Firefox icon and label "Firefox" after a reboot?

I bookmark a website, rename it to a short, simple name, then add to home screen. They're beautiful and most have their own pertinent icon. Then, after shutdown and later turn back on, all my shortcuts---or bookmarks---have the Firefox icon and all say "Firefox". Totally useless that way. What is wrong, please?

Considering it's getting the Favicon (Web Data), This may be the problem. Try reinstalling Firefox for and see if this helps.
