I have followed the easy to understand step-by-step directions for deleting bookmarks, but they will NOT delete. I've printed the directions and followed them meticulously, but to no avail. I must be doing something wrong which can be fixed with your good advice. Thanks!

If you have sync, and there is a problem anywhere, Shut Down Sync Immediately On All Devices to prevent the problem from spreading. Once the problem is fixed, perform the same repair on all computers/profiles before using sync again.
