Teema arhiveeriti. Please ask a new question if you need help.

Why have you eliminated Favorites. Using Bookmarks is now a problem.

I just reloaded Firefox after major repair on my computer. Now there is no Favorites tab, just Bookmarks, and when I imported Favorites from IE it is jumbled between those in folders and those not. Also, I have to click on "Imports from IE" to open it. Also, your Bookmarks program is difficult to organize.

Firefox has never had a Favorites menu item, just Bookmarks. Did you ever have the PlainOldfavorites extension, that one adds a favorites menu item - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/plainoldfavorites

I have been using Firefox for about 6 years and have always had a Favorites tab. I do not know what you mean about the Plain Old Favorites extension, but am interested.

If the download page for that extension, that Tony hyperlinked for you, doesn't have enough of an explanation about that extension for you, see the developers website for more information about the PlainOld Favorites extension, and for a Firefox 4.0 beta version of POF.

Guess I wasn't seeing clearly on the first response, but have now downloaded the extension and have Favorites back again. Very weird though that I have always had a Favorites tab before.

Thanks to both of you for the help.
