I can not longer delete bookmarks from the bookmark file since "organize bookmarks" is no longer an option in Firefox 4. Also the bookmarks that didn't fit in my bookmark tool bar used to be accessible to the far right of the toolbar in a drop down menu. Now I have "bookmarks" in my bookmark menu taking up space instead of a drop down arrow with just my selected bookmarks that didn't fit in the toolbar.

"Organize Bookmarks" has been renamed to "Show All Bookmarks" in the bookmarks menu.

The Bookmarks button is for accessing the bookmarks that are not in the bookmarks toolbar. You can hide this button, if you do that, to access other bookmarks you can click the orange Firefox button then select Bookmarks.

To remove the bookmarks button, right-click on the Navigation toolbar and select Customize. This will open the customize toolbar window. Drag and drop the bookmarks button which will now be on the right hand edge of the navigation toolbar and drop it onto the customize toolbar window. Click Done to complete the process.
