When I follow the instructions for importing bookmarks.html nothing happens. I get to the Library window and select the import/export tab but nothing happens. So how, other than typing them all in, can I import and export my Bookmarks. I am using Linux Mint 20 newly installed. Previous was Linux Mint 19.3 and everything worked fine. All appears to be working OK. ................ Al

Try the Firefox version from the official Mozilla server if you currently use a version from the repositories of your Linux distribution.

If you use Sync then best is to disconnect Sync temporarily during troubleshooting.

This can be caused by a problem with the places.sqlite and favicons.sqlite databases in the Firefox profile folder.

  • use "Verify Integrity" button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page

If errors are reported with "Verify Integrity", close and restart Firefox and retry.

If "Verify Integrity" cannot repair places.sqlite, rename/remove all places.sqlite and favicons.sqlite files in the Firefox profile folder. Firefox will rebuild places.sqlite and restore the bookmarks from a recent JSON backup in the bookmarkbackups folder.

  • keep a backup copy of places.sqlite in case a new places.sqlite database has to be created

You can use the button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page.
