I have 18 folders in my bookmark drop down window. When I try to save a page only some of the folders appear in the list of folders to save the page in. The folders that do appear are not in any sequence. Some are recently used some are not. I tried sorting by name but that does not change what shows up when I try to bookmark a page. The folders that appear are not in the order of my recent bookmarking activities.

Do you know that in the bookmark window, just to the right of the list of folders, there is a "down arrow". If you click on this arrow, Firefox will increase the size of the bookmark window and show all of your folders?

That is not the case. I'm familiar with the arrows but the most I can get to display are six folders. The arrow to the right of Bookmarks Menu brings up the seven folders. The down arrow in the buttons allows me to make a new folder but do not show any existing folders. I think I'll try downloading Firefox again to see if there is a bug in what I've got installed.

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
