Running 8.0 I have bookmarks, like most people, nested by categories. Under my main bookmarks I have a folder called sports. Under that are ones for football, soccer, etc. Some of these folders show the bookmarks in them , some do not. I have tried and delete the folder...add it again and add a bookmark but once I get to the nested folder no bookmarks will appear. They do appear if I go into show all bookmarks.

Viewing in the sidebar is easier and more straightforward for me -- most of the time. The only disadvantage of the sidebar is that there is no way to collapse everything at once (subfolders and main folders all at once).

The entries from Bookmarks menu (menu bar) or the Bookmarks button with the drop-down are delayed, try exiting Firefox (File > Exit, or "Firefox" button > Exit -- using the Mac equivalents of those shortcuts), and then restarting Firefox that should update your Bookmarks menu.

I deleted the places.sqlite file as posted and still have the issue. Again...some subfolders show the urls in them, some do not.

Any other ideas? Thanks.
