Bookmark library becomes unresponsive once a bookmark(s) are deleted.
When viewing my bookmark library, if I select a bookmark and press delete, it is deleted but then I can no longer delete any other bookmarks. I can select other bookmarks but when I press delete, nothing happens. I have to close and reopen the bookmark library to make any additional changes. Is there a reason for this and is anyone else experiencing this? Thanks

Is there more than one service accessing the bookmarks besides Xmarks 4.3.6 ([email protected]) ?
One way to tell is to start Firefox in Safe Mode and deleting an unwanted bookmark.
Try Firefox Safe Mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
- Click the menu button
, click Help 
and select Restart with Add-ons Disabled.
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
- On Windows: Hold the Shift key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
- On Mac: Hold the option key while starting Firefox.
- On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox -safe-mode
(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".
If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems article to find the cause.
To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.
