Firefox for iOS Support Forum

I used to be able to choose the location of my bookmarks, but now when I change the folder I want the bookmark to be in there is no done button to confirm my changes. No other button is missing. I am on Firefox mobile. Please help.

I am frustrated by the bookmark feature on the mobile app and am coming here to ask if I am missing something. My firefox account is synced across three devices (two desktop, one mobile). I want all of my bookmarks in one place, regardless of what device I save them on.

When I save a bookmark on mobile, it goes to Mobile Bookmarks — which, for me, is not where I want them to go. I then have trouble moving the bookmark. I can select the multi-step DESKTOP path but often the SAVE button does not appear and therefore I can not save it. If I keep closing and reopening, the save button sometimes appears. The attached two images shows: 1). landing spot for saved bookmarks on mobile 2) the lack of the "save" button to successfully move said bookmark.

Also, is it possible to make a mobile shortcut to all of my synced desktop bookmarks? Currently, the path is tedious to access. It involves: Hamburger button => Bookmarks => Desktop Bookmarks => these trio of options: Unsorted Bookmarks (unnecessary), Bookmarks Toolbar (the only one I want), Bookmarks Menu (unnecessary). I would like to go directly to the Bookmarks Toolbar from my mobile homepage. And if possible remove the cluttered/redundant options (re: Unsorted Bookmarks, Bookmarks Menu).

Thanks for reading.

Today I accidentally find out that all my tabs in my ios browser are gone by unknown reason. Yesterday I've delete my history data but I did it many times before and all the tabs was at their place(tumbler to erase all tabs is inactive all the time). When I get into History section Recently Closed tabs was inactive(grey). Then I moved to desktop browser and face that it sees bookmarks on my iphone(all of them).

How it's possible? And how to restore them?

Best regards

Good afternoon. Recently, bookmarks added via iPad have been added to the "mobile bookmarks" folder. Previously, when adding a bookmark, I clicked on the "Edit" button, chose the path - now the button for applying the new path has disappeared there. When viewing the list of bookmark folders on the ipad, the "mobile bookmarks" folder does not show at all (only when viewed from a computer).

Screen - there is no "apply" button.

I have taken two screenshots describing what I mean. Usually, you see a edit/save tab when you click bookmarks to either bookmark a page or edit the location of an existing one.

This has been happening for a while. And I have kept my device and all apps updated to latest available.

For this post, I tried to bookmark a page. Then tried to edit it’s location to “Lending” for instance. In both screenshots you can see there’s that edit/save button missing.

Because of this i am unable to edit my bookmarks’ location.

When I go to save a bookmark, the “done” or “save” button is missing. I can’t get bookmarks to save because I can’t complete the selection process. Can someone please help me troubleshoot this?

I have been saving my bookmarks in Firefox on my iPad mini. I was creating various folders and then when i same across a website that i wanted to save I would bookmark it. Recently when Igo to save a bookmark after selecting the folder I want to put the bookmark in it doesn’t show the edit or save buttons so I am not able to save the bookmark in the desired folder. At first I thought it was a coincidence but then tried it for various webpages. The only thing I am aware of is a recent upgrade to a newer version of IOS. I have been using the same version of Firefox for IOS as far as I am aware of. The IOS version I am running is 16.4.1

Can anybody provide any suggestions or solutions on how to fix this. I have restarted my iPad and that did not work. I also checked for newer version of Firefox - this version is the latest. I have research/that I am doing and need to be able to save my bookmarks to specific folders for future reference. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks/in advance…

Hi,

When using the Edit bookmark feature I can no longer see the button that allows me to actually save changes. I took a screenshot of the edit bookmark window and have attached. As you can see while the window pops up, it no longer contains any buttons to make the edit changes. As a result I can neither edit, or add new bookmarks any longer

Thanks,

Hi there,

since almost a week I got the problem, that I can't see the bookmarks in my bookmarks toolbar or edit them. The space, where they should appear is still there, just the icons are not. When I use the menu "Bookmarks" I still can see and use them.

I use a mac mini M1 of 2020, mac OS 13.2.1 (22D68) and the Firefox version 111.0.1 (64-bit).

I recently started using Firefox on both desktop (Windows PC) and mobile device (iPhone). I rely on my bookmark organization a lot. One thing I noticed is that there's discrepancy in name of "Other Bookmarks" (called "Unsorted Bookmarks" on iPhone) folder placed on desktop Bookmarks Bar (I only use Bookmarks bar and this folder for all my bookmarks).

Is it safe to assume this is merely a temporary and cosmetic discrepancy and this folder will be renamed to "Other Bookmarks" on iPhone too? Or does it have some special properties? Last thing I want is Firefox unsorting my carefully sorted bookmarks...

I'd really like keep one set of synced bookmarks between all my devices and accessible completely from Bookmarks bar on desktop. Is this OK thing to do?

I have a login screen that is book marked in Firefox. When I use this on my PC (Windows 11), it correctly displays and then Norton Password Manager prompts to complete the id/password. However in Firefox ios, when the screen appears, it is preloaded. I dont know where it get this data from, but either the website doesnt allow it, or the password entered is wrong. Either way I have to delete the password and re-enter it to continue.

WHere is it getting this autofill from and why does it do it in ios but not the PC version?

Bookmarks does not work. Please fix and post good instructions. See the many other negative complaints about Bookmarks. It should not be this hard to establish a bookmark folder and place an item in that that folder. Very frustrating to use!

Attempted to scroll through a folder of bookmarks (Firefox for iOS on an older iPad Pro that’s been fully updated to iOS 16.1). About halfway through the scroll, the app shuts down. Upon restart, it restores tabs, but also apparently clears cache, forcing me to re-login to accounts.
