How do I delete or move bookmarks that aren't in folders?

I am on a Mac using El Capitan and Firefox 45.0.2. When I go to "show all bookmarks," I only see folders, not all my bookmarks. When I go to bookmarks from the menu bar, if my mouse touches a bookmark, I am automatically taken to that page and have to hit the star button and delete each bookmark individually, With over 25 years of bookmarks that need organizing this is onerous. I am also not able to move bookmarks by dragging. They automatically go back to their original place. Is there a fix for this? I am not the most computer savvy person, so a really simple answer will be tremendously appreciated.  :-)

Valgt løsning

You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database (bookmarks and history) in the Firefox profile folder.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • Switch to the DEFAULT theme: "3-bar" menu button or Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
  • Do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Safe Mode start window
