If the URL you are using is “old” and you are being redirected then it is likely the favicon is missing. Copy the link from the address box and edit the bookmark, the favicon should reappear. However that only worked on a fraction of my bookmarks.
I still have missing bookmark favicons from sites that previously displayed them. This is occuring on all our machines.

Up until the latest Firefox update, I was able to choose an icon as an identifier, quick and simple.
Now all the folder are a simple white folder, and they all look the same. There is no option to change them. The properties option has gone.
Does anyone know if it is possible to get them back? Using icons, is useful to those with visual problems, so it is a shame it has been removed

I have adopted the habit of regularly saving the favicons.sqlite file in my profile, so that I can use it to replace the one in my profile that has been corrupted causing the favicons to disappear.

Once the browser picks up the favicon it will show in your bookmarks or favorites .

thank you so much! I was wondered why I didn’t have faveicons anymore, after got a new iMac yesterday and imported my old Bookmarks to Firefox.

For me it was the missing “s” in a few domains. After correcting from “http” to “https” and reloading the bookmark, the Favicons were displayed again. =)

The article helped me a lot, thank you very much! :-)

Many Regards from Germany,
Alex :-)
