I was doing some cleanup/organizing in my bookmarks and some wouldn't delete or move.

Spent hours trying things and searching for the answer online.

Seems this last update of FireFox has some issues in this area.

Finally got things back to almost normal, but was wondering if anyone else had this problem.

Yes, come to mention it... Our laptop upstairs, lost some of its bookmarks (doesn't have many). But most still work. It is odd how the lost ones just skip around the list.

This unit is unaffected so far. (that I know of that is..I have a jillion on this unit and only use a few daily.--the rest are reference)

and I thought it was just my normal level of confusion.

you might want to do a bookmark backup so you have them saved somewhere else on the computer just in case they all mess up.

I backed up, and exported, all of bookmarks to IE and Opera {just downloaded Opera yesterday because of this}.

I tried the fixes from the Mozilla site but none of them helped.
So after I backed up and exported my bookmarks to both other browsers.
I tried to re download FF but it kept coming up as corrupted...

so I tried a system restore which it said it couldn't do either ... so i was wondering what the heck, is going on.

but after the sys restore did it's reboot and told me it didn't do a restore- then everything was working normally again LOL.
So either way it seems to be fixed
and just to be sure there was no other problems ,I ran 2 scanners and my reg cleaners.

crazy machines LOL.

well I spoke too soon or jinxed myself..
my bookmarks work and are there when i click the toolbar but if i go to organize them nothing showed at all

so i followed the info about making a new profile for FF and then imported the bookmarks from IE and my back up file - that worked
and I still can go back to my old profile if I need to see something or whatever.
I gives you the option to choose the old or the new profile when you start FF.

So if you have any major annoying problems bothering you I can help you though the new profile set up if this link doesn't help you.
It's easier than it sounds.
Basically you copy this - firefox.exe -ProfileManager
and then close FF and paste that into the "Run" area hit OK and go from there.

I'd guess it's something to do with the last upgrade you did.

I remember way back with the upgrade to Firefox 2, a lot of us were having problems with our bookmarks as well.
