I cannot save page into bookmarks. I have some addons, see here http://cropme.ru/s/e/6/8/d92747cf.png

when I press on a star, the page is not saved anywhere. star after that refreshes and doesn't look like blue star. I can put on it as much as I can, nothing happens. It refreshes so on and so on; What should I do????

This happens in safe mode?

Maybe you have a places.sqlite corrupted, try go to your profile(maybe you need unhide then hidden files and folders), and rename or delete the 'places.sqlite file(close Firefox before). Then restart Firefox and try again.

"when I press on a star, the page is not saved anywhere"

Did you look in the Unsorted Bookmarks folder? That's were a single-click on the star places the new bookmark. Two clicks gives you a dialog box that allows you to select where to place the new bookmark.

It works after I have renamed this file. But it weights 92 mb , so I don't think it is good.
