For some reason when i click the bookmarks button i am not seeing all of my bookmarks anymore.

I am not sure if this happened in a update or if something went wrong with the browser. But when i do ctrl-shift-b i can still see they are all there. Just not when i use the bookmarks button.

The list is not that long. But for some reason there was something wrong with firefox. I tried deleting the bookmarks and some would not delete. So i ended up deleting the profile and creating a new one.

Which ended up solving everything.

Is the list too long? Can you scroll down?

Note that such issues can be caused by a problem of the places.sqlite database file.

If it happens again then you can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox profile folder.
