I had a ton of favorite bookmarks showing on the main top of the browser and this morning they are all gone. I did the restore as the instructions said to do but now all of them are gone completely and the favorites toolbar with all my needed favorites are gone and it is blank. I added a few new ones today to that section and they are not there again. It is not saving. I needed those and that is why I put them on the main page for easy access. Please help!

Check that you still have the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" placed on the Bookmarks Toolbar

  • Make sure that you have the "Bookmarks Toolbar" visible: "View > Toolbars"
  • Check in "View > Toolbars > Customize" that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
  • If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the Customize window onto the Bookmarks Toolbar
  • If you do not see the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" then click the "Restore Default Set" button

This can also be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
