First, please update to Firefox 17.0.1 Update Firefox to the latest version

Then, do you want to delete a bookmark, or export it to a different browser? They are two different things.

See:

If bookmarks and/or history working properly then you can check for problems with a possibly corrupted places.sqlite database file in the Firefox Profile Folder.
