For a week or more in my Yahoo toolbar (which I use on any browser that I can, incl. Firefox) I have my bookmark icon, but no bookmarks. There's a little gear icon at the end of the toolbar, which should at least help me "refresh" things, but on Firefox, that has stopped working as well. The Yahoo toolbar bookmarks work fine on, say, IE.

Hello,

Firefox automatically creates backups of your bookmarks, which can be helpful if your bookmarks are lost or missing. To recover them, follow the instructions below.

  1. Use one of these methods to open the Bookmarks Library window:
    • Firefox 29 and above: Click the Bookmarks button Bookmarks-29 and select Show All Bookmarks.
    • Previous Firefox versions: Click the Firefox button and click on Bookmarks. (If you don't have a Firefox button, click the Bookmarks button Bookmarks button win 2 or Bookmarks menu item and select Show All Bookmarks.)
  2. At the top of the Library window, click on Import and Backup and select Restore.
  3. Click the date of the bookmark backup you want to recover.
  4. In the new window that appears, click OK.
  5. Your bookmarks from the selected date should now be restored.

For more information, see the Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer article. For other solutions, see the Recover lost or missing Bookmarks article.

Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!

Thank you.

I haven't tried the final suggestions (i.e., Restore bookmarks from backup, etc.) but I don't have the icons the top instructions tell me to use. I have Firefox 32.0 but I don't have a bookmark icon as depicted in the instructions. I have the 3 horizontal lines icon, but the options it displays when clicked don't include anything to do with bookmarks.
