This is the issue:

I have 200 bookmarks from the last few years. When I go to "Organize bookmarks"then type in a search for lets say, photo

it shows me all of my bookmarks with photo in it. However, it does not tell me which folder I saved it in so I can access it faster next time. IS there a way to find this out? It is only showing me : Name Location Tags

But not which folder it is saved in

After installing "Show Parent Folder" add the "Parent folder" column by double-clicking on any column header in the Library List, you cannot sort on the "Parent folder": column, and you should go to the extension's options and turn on "Show folder hierarchy".

Does not seem to work in Firefox 8

Did you install the Show Parent Folder extension and made the "Parent Folder" column visible (Views > Columns)?
