For approx. a year, on at least two different computers, I'm having the following problems with bookmarks: -have selected repeatedly for it to organize alphabetically/according to name, but it repeatedly scrambles itself, either just a few things, or large sections of the list -order of the list "rearranges itself, duplicating parts of the list, etc. -often when I type the name of a new folder & hit enter, it renames the next or the previous folder THAT NAME -select one folder, e.g., to save a page, and hit enter. it jumps to a different folder (saving it in the wrong place) -folders get renamed by themselves (as explained above) and my bookmarks are all scrambled, not only the main files themselves, but within the files I hope some of you can help me. This wastes my time and research!!!

This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
