This may explain the Amazon issue then, as it does seem to jump about and not be very repeatable. We all know that they have a little carousel that loads stuff they want to flog you but that should be in another frame but its not in 58 or if it is nvda does not treat it as such.

Open the part of the library in firefox that deals with bookmarks. The command is control shift b. Open the menus with alt. Right arrow to import and backup and down arrow through the items. You will find an item that says import book marks from another browser. press enter and do what is appropriate. When finished, close the window and return to the main browser window with alt f4.
