When I click on my bookmarks they no longer open in a new tab, what do I do to fix it?
I just uploaded to the newest version of Firefox. Now, when I click on a bookmark the link opens in the same tab - they won't open in a new tab. However, when I click on a link in an existing page that link opens in a new tab. I miss having my bookmarked links open in their own individual tabs. Please put that function back in.

Right click the bookmark and select, "Open in a New Tab."
Some add-ons like Tab Mix Plus offer that as an option, but I do not recall that ever being a built-in function if Firefox.
Have you tried Middle+click or Ctrl+click? See (under Web Navigation section): http://www.7is7.com/software/firefox/shortcuts.html

You can middle-click or Ctrl left-click a bookmark, just like every other link, to open the link in as new tab. See Use tabs to organize lots of websites in a single window
