How do I get the word Bookmarks to appear on the right side of my bookmarks toolbar? It has disappeared.
In my Bookmarks toolbar there is a star, an arrow, and a house. There used to be the word "bookmarks" but it disappeared. I want the word "bookmarks" back so that I can click on that. If I right click in the blue area, all I get is Open all in Tabs, etc. There is nothing to say how I get the word bookmarks.

The "Bookmarks" word doesn't appear when that button is on the Navigation bar - a change made for Firefox 23. But you'll notice that a "drop-marker" arrow is there now.
If you would happen to move that Button down to the Bookmarks Toolbar, the "Bookmarks" will appear there and the "drop-marker" arrow will disappear.

Can you please explain what Button you are referring to and how I move it? I don't see any buttons. All I see is a star, an arrow, and a house. None of these can solve my problem. I looked at the article but it does not say anything about making the word "Bookmarks" reappear. Thank you!
Firefox has two bookmark buttons with a star in the Customize window.
One star button has a drop-marker that open the Bookmark menu and may appear on the Navigation Toolbar or on the Bookmarks Toolbar if the menu bar is hidden.
The other star button without the drop-marker opens the bookmarks in the sidebar (View > Sidebar > Bookmarks).

You can drag the Bookmarks menu button with the drop-marker in the Customize window from the toolbar palette on a toolbar (e.g. Navigation Toolbar or Tab Bar or to the left side of the Bookmarks Menu Items).
If you do not see the drop-marker then try them both to see which works.
You only see the Bookmarks Menu button when the Menu bar with the Bookmarks menu is hidden (View > Toolbars or Firefox > Options).
If the Bookmarks Toolbar is visible then the Bookmarks Menu button is displayed on the Bookmarks Toolbar as part of the Bookmarks Toolbar Items (bookmarks), but you can move it from the right side to the left side of the Bookmarks toolbar if the Customize window is open.
Otherwise the Bookmarks Menu button will appear on the right hand side of the Navigation Toolbar.
