When I open the bookmarks tab on the toolbar, all of my folders show up, but when I am trying to add a page and right click to add it, most of the folders do not show up, so I cannot add pages to already existing folders. I have Windows 7.

On the right hand side of the location bar where you normally type in a web address, you'll see a grey star. When you want to add a bookmark, double click that and then click arrow to the right of "Unsorted Bookmarks" and click the word "Choose".

See screenshot. The image on the right is what you get when you click "Choose" in the one on the left.
