I am having problems with Library, "Show all Bookmarks" freezing when I add a new folder
I recently moved from windows Vista to a new computer with Windows 7.
I stared having problems with Library (show all bookmarks) freezing when I go to add a new folder.
It also freezes when I move bookmarks.
Can I 're-set' library, perhaps it needs to be cleared of excess stuff ??

First, try this;
Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?
Use with Extreme Caution;
Bookmark Duplicate Cleaner {web link} Scans for bookmark duplicates and allows you to delete them
Bookmarks Checker - check for bad links {web link}
Check favorites for broken or bad links. It checks for bad links and
displays a report if it finds something. Check for 404 links, timeout links.

Are you using Sync to sync the bookmarks?
If you use Sync then best is to disconnect Sync while performing maintenance/repair efforts to files in the Firefox profile folder.
You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database (bookmarks and history) in the Firefox profile folder.
