All options to bookmark don't work. Examples are right clicking on page to select bookmark this page, double clicking gold star, and clicking bookmarks on task bar to save.

Chosen solution

Problems with bookmarks and history not working properly can be caused by a corrupted places.sqlite database file.

You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox profile folder.
