One thing which has been bugging me for a while is that the drop-down menu -
the menu which allowed you to specify into which folder you wanted the
bookmarked page to go - has suddenly disappeared and now all bookmarked
pages are added to the end of list of bookmarks.
I am using 3.6.13 on Maverick (up to date) and, if I understand you,
do not see this. When I click Bookmarks> Bookmark This Page I get a
dialog that allows me to enter the Name, Folder and Tags. You could
try when logged on as a different user to identify whether it is
something messed up in your FF profile.

Great! Thanks. It's in my profile. But where? :'(

Or do I start from scratch and then copy over the bookmarks (and whatever) into the new profile?
