To avoid misunderstanding the "Personal Toolbar Folder", I captured it and made red marks.

I have the same effect in: -- Mozilla 1.4b Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030508 -- I can't put anything to "Personal Bookmark Folder". Aside of that (and this is even worse) I can't create any folder from "Bookmarks Manager".

WFM, have you tried with a recent build and new profile ? There were some problems with personal toolbar which should be fixed now. Also, try to "reset" your personal toolbar by invoking "Set as Personal Toolbar Folder" in the View menu.
Well, I've figured this out. The problem I'm seeing is when you've deleted the Personal Toolbar folder, and then try later to drag/drop something on the Personal Toolbar. We fail. Shouldn't we try to automatically create a Personal Toolbar folder and allow the drag and drop to complete?

I too have just run into this issue. As Stephen Donner suggested, I think we should automatically recreate the folder. For a lot of users creating the folder, if they deleted it, is not intuitive, especially if they have done it by accident. By doing it automatically, it is one less user thinking something is broken in Mozilla. Also, once the folder has been recreated, by hand, it is not activated until you re-enter the profile, either through Mozilla restart or profile switch. This adds to the confusion, since it is not immediatly obvious why the folder is not being taken into account.
I am just adding a comment to indicate that this issue is OS independent. Based on my usage of MacOS X and Windows 2000, this affects them both. - Its a shame Bugzilla does not accept multiple OSs for a given bug report, but that's another story.

So this is a dup of bug 88711. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 88711 ***
