Ctrl+D not working
Hi. I recently updated Firefox to 29.0.1 and after I did that the shortcut for "Bookmark This Page" (Ctrl+D) has seized to work. Whenever I press that combination it doesn't do anything, and if I go to the Bookmarks menu it says to use Ctrl+R which does not do the same thing as that just refreshes the website.
I have looked into add-ons that could change the shortcut button combinations, but none of them list this option.
What can I do to get that shortcut back as it really is annoying to have to go to the menu all the time to save a bookmark.

If you are using the language pack then you should be able to fix this easily by editing the involved file in the nb-NO.xpi file (an XPI file is a ZIP archive)
- nb-NO.xpi/browser/chrome/nb-NO/locale/browser/browser.dtd
<!ENTITY editThisBookmarkCmd.label "Rediger dette bokmerket"> <!ENTITY bookmarkThisPageCmd.commandkey "R"> <!ENTITY bookmarkThisPageCmd.commandkey "d">

I have now also tried this in Safe Mode and it still has no result.
Does the "Bookmark This Page" menu item at least work (i.e. only the keyboard shortcut fails)?
Which Firefox locale (user interface language) do you use (pref: general.useragent.locale on the about:config page)?
The menu item itself works fine yes, but not the shortcut menu.
I use the nb-NO version and it worked fine until I updated it.
That is a bug:

Oh, good. At least it has been noticed then.
Is there a fix for it or do I just have to wait for a patch?
