Bookmark bar in Firefox 3

Chuffy

Hi all, some time ago I installed FF3 prior to the full release. Since then my bookmark bar has been completely blank. I've subsequently installed the full release and the bar is still blank.
Anyone got any ideas?

Hi, what happens when you save a new page to the Bookmarks Toolbar?

Chuffy

When I try to drag a tab to the bookmarks toolbar I get the 'no entry' icon.
When I click on bookmarks, bookmark this page & add to bookmark toolbar it appears in the bookmarks toolbar in the menu but not on the bar itself.
Did that make sense?

I've had this too - because I started using a Beta.
They changed the bookmarks toolbar from 2 to 3.

It used to be that you could assign any folder to be the bookmarks toolbar. Now there's a specific one built in.

I'm afraid I don't know how to fix it since I just created a fresh profile and moved to that

If you want to create a new profile just click Run from your Start menu and paste in:
firefox -p -no-remote
Then you'll see the profile manager and you can create a new profile.

Hi,
Some options:
1. See if this helps.

2. As mentioned above, try a new profile to see if that resolves it.

3. Completely remove all trace of Firefox and install again. (save your bookmarks first).
