User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10 When you have firefox running, open a file dialog, e.g. with a "Browse" button on a website or "File --> Open File", leave it and open a new instance of firefox, the bookmarks toolbar and bookmarks sidebar will be empty. As soon as you close the dialog from instance 1, instance 2 will show the bookmarks. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open Firefox 2. Choose "File --> Open File" 3. Leave the dialog open and 4. Open a new instance (new window) Actual Results: Bookmarks toolbar and sidebar are empty Expected Results: bookmarks toolbar and sidebar show bookmarks reported here: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=133863
Other notes: using: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8a4) Gecko/20040925 Firefox/0.9.1+ The problem with the boomkarks toolbar does go away after you close the file->open file... dialog. Other problems encountered: *) customize (for the toolbars) does not work *) Clicking on bookmarks inside the Bookmarks menu do not go anywhere *) File->Open File... cannot be used. *) Find in this page dialog (on older builds) opens but cannot be closed *) Print Preview will not work (says "Preparing...") *) Going into Tools->Options... restores the Bookmarks toolbar and allows bookmarks to work again. It does not fix the Find dialog problem (on older builds), however. *) File->Import... also restores the Bookmarks toolbar

very similar to bug 257121
Confirmed. Strange, If the open file dialog is open, delayedStartup just doens't happen _it is_ called ( setTimeout(delayedStartup, 0); )
Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Ever confirmed: true

not a "blocker" in that sense. Needs investigation/fixing, but we've shipped with this many times, so I'm not too concerned if we don't figure it out.

Bah.
Duplicate: bug 338225 -> bug 257121, as bug 338225 was a regression which happened much later then the current bug.
No longer depends on: 257121
