hello 542merks,

can you please "Refresh Firefox"

1)on the URL Bar,type in - about:support 2)Click "Refresh Firefox"

Note: Refreshing firefox restores it to the default state,preserves your Bookmarks,Browsing history,Passwords,Cookies,auto-fill info etc. but removes Extensions and themes, website permissions, modified preferences, download history, plugin settings, toolbar customization etc.

Check and let us know.

I've noticed that it seems to be mainly video sharing websites, like youtube and dailymotion, that won't bookmark.
