When I select "choose" I get only "unsorted bookmarks" and "bookmarks toolbar" to choose from. I am able to bookmark the page under "unsorted bookmarks" and then later copy it to the directory of my choice, but this is a round-about-way. How can I get the complete list of my directories to appear when I want to place a new bookmark in the proper category, without having to first file it in the "unsorted bookmarks" directory?

If you do not see the Bookmarks Menu folder where the other bookmark folders reside then you may have a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
