Mac Tips – Deleting Bookmarks From Firefox

One thing I’ve seen many people (including myself) searching for is how to delete a bookmark you have made in Firefox. If you have placed this bookmark within a folder on the bookmark menu, you cannot simply right-click on it and delete it when you want to remove it; you have to drag it to the toolbar, THEN right-click it to delete it. WTF? Still can’t find the answer as to why that doesn’t work, but shall press on regardless.

OPTION 1

1. Open the bookmark you wish to delete.
2. Click the star in the address bar.
3. Click “remove bookmark” in the pop up box.
OPTION 2
1. Click on the “Bookmarks” drop down menu at the top of Firefox.
2. Select the “Show All Bookmarks” option.
3. From there you can right-click on your bookmarks and delete them.

These options are relatively straight-forward, however, I would prefer there to be ability to right-click and delete rather than doing this.

  1. Great tip!!! been looking for this all along and indeed it works as you described, since Mac been known for ‘user friendly ‘ however, a very simple tool like so is not so user Friendly at all.
