It's a long story, but at the moment the bulk of my bookmarks are located in bookmarks > bookmarks toolbar > imported > unsorted bookmarks. How can I get my bookmarks back so I can access them from the bookmarks on the toolbar? Thanks for any help!

Hi Elizabeth27, I understand that you would like to move the unsorted bookmarks back to the folder that shows the bookmarks in the bookmark toolbar. I am happy to help.

I created a screencast of how to do this here: http://www.screencast.com/t/RJ6eRwJV Steps to do this are:

  1. Open up the Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks Menu
  2. Search for the bookmark you want to move
  3. Long click on the title and drag it to the open tree "Bookmarks Toolbar"
  4. Let go when you see a horizontal line of the position at the top.
  5. Look for it to show up in the bookmark toolbar

I hope this helps, please do post back with the results after moving one or two to see if it is s permanent solutions.
