trouble bookmarking a page
in the past few weeks, every time I try to bookmark a page utilizing a right-click, it goes directly to some other folder without asking me to choose which folder I want to put the page. I then have to right-click again which works.

Hi, there is an option in the bookmarks star dropdown for bookmarks to automatically save straight to Other Bookmarks. If you don't want that to happen, you can either click the blue star as if to edit, then select the 'Show editor when saving' box. Or, type about:config into the address bar, press Enter, accept the warning, click Show All, then scroll down the alphabetical list to browser.bookmarks.editDialog.showForNewBookmarks and if it is False, click the toggle button on the right to change it to True. More - Bookmarks in Firefox.
Note that you need to keep your mouse pointer over the star dropdown to prevent it from disappearing.
