Unsorted bookmarks not showing up when clicking "Show all Bookmarks" therefore, I am unable to delete them.

I wanted to organize my bookmarks and clicked on "Show All Bookmarks". All of my folders are there with their respective bookmarks, however none of my "unsorted bookmarks" show up. The unsorted bookmarks are there and able to be clicked on from the Bookmark dropdown menu. Why can't I get access to these unsorted bookmarks to delete them?

Also, I tried going to the bookmarked pages and deleting them from the "star" icon. Only some of them come up as a blue star and I'm able to delete those. Other bookmarks don't change the star to blue, so I have no way to delete them.

In the "Library" dialog, there should be a separate "category" for Unsorted Bookmarks in the left column. They don't appear on the Bookmarks Menu list in this dialog.

All Bookmarks - Bookmarks Toolbar - Bookmarks Menu - Unsorted Bookmarks

I'm aware that there is a folder for Unsorted Bookmarks on the left. I've clicked on that and none of my bookmarks show up, even though they show up in the dropdown bookmark menu and can access them. I just can't reorganize or delete them.
