Ask Ubuntu is a question and answer site for Ubuntu users and developers. It's 100% free, no registration required.

None of my bookmarks (Documents, Pictures, Download, Dropbox, Ubuntu One, Music, Public) are correctly shown but they won't open if I right click on the Home icon and select them. The only ones who work are Home and Open A New Window.

I've read similar questions (unity home quicklist not working when nautilus is closed and unity home quicklist not working) but my problem seems different... Anyway I can't solve with the suggested workarounds.

Are u using 12.04? – blade19899 Sep 20 '12 at 8:49
please post the contents of your /usr/share/applications/nautilus.desktop file and also the ouput of ls ~. – green7 Sep 20 '12 at 9:02
Done. You won't find the bookmarks in .desktop file, and this should be pretty normal for dynamic quicklists, as they DID work until some days ago. – jasmines Sep 20 '12 at 9:23
