Before the upgrade to 29, using the down arrow next to the refresh arrow, would show the most visited sites.

Now with 29, only the most recent visits are shown for the day. Sometimes there are random sites from visits long ago.

We miss this feature. Yes, I did search how Bookmarks are used now. However I use bookmarks to mark a page that I will not use often and can't email the page to myself to keep forever.

I also read about the 'awesome' search by typing in the first letter. Not awesome at all. Many steps to get where I want to go that was so easy before.

If the site I visit everyday was in the down arrow before, how do I get it to stay there in the new 29? Or long enough until a new site becomes the favorite of ours and replaces the old site that now drops off to the bottom and then out of site. Dropping out is OK as it is no longer on the 'fast track'.

How simple was that? Open Firefox, click down arrow and go to XXX, done with that one -- hit arrow and go to YYY.

8.1 upgraded to 8.1.1 and Firefox to 29 all in one day. Hate to tell you Firefox, but it was easier to get around the Microsoft upgrade than this 29. Go figure that one.

"Most Visited" is also available on the first icon at the left of your Bookmarks Toolbar. If that toolbar is not visible, right-click in the empty space to the right of your tabs and check the box next to Bookmarks Toolbar.

Thanks for the answer. I just did that and we will have to 'build' up a list of most visited now. For right now it is showing Mozilla Support page and some others that I did today. However, I am sure it will start showing our favorites as we use them everyday.

I did notice that it makes the top bar with another layer, taking up more space. It seems that the arrow that is already there did the trick without using anymore space. If it captures most of our favorites, than it is still time saved from what I was doing since the upgrade. Thanks again for your time.
