Mouse rollover on bookmark shows wrong name & location text
FF 22.0, Win 7. Don't know when this started but when i hover the mouse over a bookmark (in my bookmark display) it displays the incorrect name and location text. It is displaying the info for another bookmark. It does display the correct info for the bookmarks on the Bookmarks Toolbar.

This was a bug in Firefox 22 that is fixed in Firefox 23.
Option #1 - wait for Firefox 23 to release next week (officially scheduled to release on August 6th)
Option #2 - install the beta test version of Firefox 23 now from the main beta page
Option #3 - change your layout.css.devPixelsPerPx to 1.0 as noted above (however, if you like the font sizes in Firefox as they are, I don't recommend doing this)
Reference to the fixed bug: 890374 – incorrect tooltips in the sidebar when interface are scaled. Please do not comment on closed bugs. There's no way to hurry the fix along any faster!

Going to the Firefox 23 beta version fixed the problem,thanks for that tip!But I see that I am now on the beta channel(?),does this make a difference when the regular Updates comes through next week?
Hi urlnts, what will happen next week is you will get the beta for Firefox 24.
To switch to the final release of Firefox 23 when available, you can:
- Back up your settings "just in case": Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles
- Run the installer that will become available here: https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/fx/#desktop
