After a recent update, the Bookmarks menu has an extra folder called "All Bookmarks" which appears to be a copy of the bookmarks. It is causing problems and how do I fix it?

I recently updated Firefox. The Bookmarks menu shows a new menu item called "All Bookmarks". It appears to be a copy of the bookmarks. When I try to add a new bookmark, the All Bookmarks folder is the only one shown in the dialog. I tried deleting the All Bookmarks folder, but then nothing is shown in the dialog when I try to add a new bookmark.

If I do add a new bookmark, it is put under the All Bookmarks folder and does not show up under the top-level item I want it under. Any ideas about what I can do to fix this.

The update went normally without my intervention.

Thanks

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

I was able to fix the problem after following the bookmark backup and restore procedures on the following page:

http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locked_or_damaged_places.sqlite#Problems_limited_to_bookmarks

I also had to restart Firefox so that the "Bookmark This Page" dialog would show the normal bookmarks.

Thanks.
