In the past when I clicked on the Bookmark button in the top menu bar, I saw the list of my bookmarks with a few management tools at the end. Now when I click on the button, I get an intermediate list of management tools which has to be navigated and clicked before getting to the Bookmarks. Greater complexity is not an improvement.

How do I get back the simpler access to the Bookmarks? Even better would be for the list to appear on hovering over the Bookmark button.

You can add the "Bookmarks Menu" button that shows the bookmarks in a drop-down list to the Navigation Toolbar via these steps:

  • click the bookshelf 57 library icon icon on the Navigation Toolbar or alternatively use the Library menu in the "3-bar" Firefox menu button New Fx Menu drop-down list
  • click Bookmarks
  • click "Bookmarking Tools", then click "Add Bookmarks Menu to Toolbar"
The Bookmark Menu button Bookmark Menu icon (star on tray) should appear on the Navigation Toolbar.

You can also drag the Bookmarks Menu button from the Customize palette to the Navigation Toolbar
