only some of my bookmarks are showing on toolbar though they're all in library. How do I get them all to appear on left?
Most of my bookmarks are missing from left bookmarks toolbar. They are in my bookmark library and a search for a bookmark not showing in the toolbar still brings up the right entry. I've closed firefox; rebooted. How do I get all bookmarks to appear?

Places Maintenance {web link} Allows to run Maintenance tasks on the database that drives Places, the bookmarks and history module behind Firefox.
Open the Add-ons Manager. Locate the add-on and press the Options button. Select All of the tests. Then press Execute on the bottom.
You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file (bookmarks, history) in the Firefox profile folder.

If the Places Maintenance extension can't repair the places.sqlite database file then remove all places.sqlite file(s) in the Firefox profile folder to make Firefox rebuild the places.sqlite database file from the most recent JSON backup in the bookmarkbackups folder.
You can use this button to go to the current Firefox profile folder:
