Hello! I imported my bookmarks from my old computer to my new computer. Old computer was running XP, new is running Windows 7. Both have the latest version of Firefox.

On the old machine, when saving a bookmark, it allowed me to select the folder to put it in.

On the new machine, my only choices are the bookmarks toolbar, the bookmarks menu or the unsorted bookmarks. There is a "choose" icon, but when I click it, it give me a new window, but with the same 3 options listed above.

All my folders imported fine, all my bookmarks are there. So, what did I do wrong? Thanks for any help!

Problems with bookmarks and history not working properly can be caused by a corrupted places.sqlite database file.

You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox Profile Folder.
