Where is the import bookmark function in the new firefox 57.0?
I cannot find the import bookmarks function at all in version 57.0.
Hitting: library icon -> bookmarks -> show all bookmarks does absolutely nothing. Nothing happens when I do this.
By the far the most annoying browser to use.

Show All Bookmarks should open the Bookmarks/History Manager (Library).
Do you otherwise have problems with bookmarks or history?
This should still work.
- Bookmarks -> Show All Bookmarks -> Import & Backup
You can also try to open this chrome URI in a tab:
- chrome://browser/content/places/places.xul
You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database (bookmarks and history) in the Firefox profile folder.
- use "Verify Integrity" on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page

Thanks for the well informed instructions there. I relaunched the browser and found that the pop window now appears with the aforementioned details.
Thanks!
