Bookmark Toolbar Icons
I've installed Firefox on a Toshiba Encore 2 10" tablet running Windows 8.1.
The Bookmark Toolbar is visible but does not contain any icons. The icons and details are there when viewed in the Bookmark Manager.
Is there a solution for this?

For bookmarks to show on your bookmarks toolbar, an item called "Bookmarks Toolbar Icons" needs to be on that toolbar. By default, it is on the Bookmarks toolbar but can be removed by accident. To see if you have it on your toolbar, you need to go to your customization page:
- Enter about:customizing in your address bar and hit Enter
- Go to > Customize
If it is not on the toolbar in your customization page, you will need to click and drag it onto there. Exit your customization page after doing so and see if your bookmarks appear.

Hello,
Try going to your customization page, either:
- Enter about:customizing in your address bar and hit Enter
- Go to > Customize
On this screen, click and drag any tools you want on your bookmark toolbar. If you want your bookmarks on there, click and drag the "Bookmarks Toolbar Items" onto the bar.
Alternatively you can click "Restore Defaults" to return Firefox to the default interface.
Please see the article Customize Firefox controls, buttons and toolbars for more information.
I should have read this reply more carefully as it would have solved my problem at this stage!

I attach two images. One showing the totally blank Bookmark Toolbar and the other showing the Toolbar items visible in the Bookmarks Sidebar.
I hope this explains my problem more clearly.
