It sounds as though your favorites file may have become corrupted. (This is a bug that should be fixed in our upcoming 2.1 release.)
Are you able to export your favorites?
Try opening Favorites / Organize Favorites and then click the Import and Backup button and select Export HTML...
If that works, and your bookmarks get saved to the HTML file, then do this:
(1) Quit Flock entirely
(2) Locate your profile folder and rename the file "places.sqlite" to "OLD-places.sqlite".
(3) Restart Flock
(4) Open the Organize Favorites window again and import the HTML file you saved.
Hope that helps. Let us know how it goes.

Inappropriate?Hi Vanessa,
There are a couple of ways to delete favorites. Try going to the Favorites menu and selecting "Manage Favorites" or "Organize Favorites". In that window you should be able to delete favorites by selecting them and pressing the "Del" key, or else right-click and select "Delete" from the context menu.
Let us know if you still have problems.
Regards,

Inappropriate?I tried both of those and it still would not delete.
I am using a MacBook Pro and
OS 10.5
I’m undecided

Inappropriate?Hi Chris,
So if you right-click on the favorite and select "Delete", the favorite just stays there? -
Inappropriate?That is the case, right-click (or ctrl-click on the mac) and the favorite just stays there.

Inappropriate?Do you see any error messages listed in Tools / Error Console after you try to delete a favorite?
Also, do you have any extensions installed? Most Firefox extensions work fine in Flock, but some (particularly those that have to do with Firefox bookmarks) have been known to cause issues...

How would I check for extensions?

To check for other extensions, go to Tools / Add-ons. -
