I cannot bookmark a page in existing folders; I can't scroll to all folders under choose.

New hard drive installed. Firefox 4 installed April 9, When I reach a web site, and I go to Bookmark this page, edit this bookmark, New Folder, Choose, and the first few existing folders are displayed. Choose does not display all folders, for me to scroll down & select, from an existing folder, as I did in the previous version of Firefox, on previous hard drive. All folders are there when I look for a previously bookmarked website.

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

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
