Synced new computer
Synced my new computer, received bookmark toolbar and 10 year old bookmarks from when i switched from interent explorer, but all my more recent bookmarks and bookmark folders are still missing on the new computer. Also didn't seem to transfer passwords and autofill info.
Chosen solution
Solved the issue. I followed the instruction for adding a sidebar, and made it bookmarks only like the old one, and there they are. Thanks for the help. Seems like getting a new computer and transferring everything gets harder each time. The 10 yo laptop only required a usb cable and a couple clicks and i was done.

Where is the old computer?
Old laptop is right next to the new computer
I just noticed both computers have the "folder icon Other Bookmarks" with what synced over. The old laptop w/ all the missing bookmarks is a "rectangle box w a vertical line in the middle w/ 3 dots in the right box" that say " Show sidebars"
