Bookmarks menu used to work fine. Recently, now when clicking the "bookmarks" menu, it says, "sign in to access your Google bookmarks," but it does no good.
Running Firefox 3.6.3. The "bookmarks" menu is at the top of the page. The "bookmarks" menu used to work fine. Now when clicked, the "bookmarks" menu says, "Sign in to access your Google bookmarks." After signing in to Google, the "bookmarks" menu still does not work, and continues to repeat the "Sign in to access your Google bookmarks."

Looks like Google changed the domain for Google accounts. You'll need to edit the Google Toolbar extension to have the new URL. The alternative id for Google to update their Google Toolbar program for Firefox, but I doubt of that will happen - they have recently dropped support for Firefox. I found these instructions in another support forum.
Open up toolbar.js with a decent editor.
Find: www.google.com/accounts
and replace ALL with: accounts.google.com
Restart FF.
Login through the toolbar. Enjoy.
My advice is to get your bookmarks from Google and import them into Firefox itself. If you want a backup service for your bookmarks, use Firefox Sync or Xmarks instead of Google Bookmarks.
I opened toolbar.js, but was unable to locate the URL to update it. Is there another way to do this
