Are you assuming you can't change the name because
Chrome says bookmark added before you edit anything? I seldom add new
bookmarks in Chrome but I experimented. If I use control d to add one,
Chrome says bookmark added but I am still on the edit field where I can change
the name. It wasn't announced as an edit field for some reason with
NVDA. I don't know what other screen-readers would do. I tried
typing and I was able to change the name as in any standard edit field.
That's an example of looking around an not assuming
what your screen-reader says is always relevant. Somewhere, Chrome says
bookmark added but that is misleading and it hasn't been actually saved
yet. If something seems wrong, look around.
As far as finding a book mark after you save it
even if you don't know the name, if you know what folder it is saved in, it is
the first bookmark at the end of the list. If you are in the list and up
arrow, it will be the first one. I don't work enough with book marks in
Chrome to discuss specifying a folder much but I can tell you a little if you
want to know.
I can't answer the other questions about how to
move all bookmarks to one folder, etc. But creating bookmarks in Chrome is
similar to doing so in other browsers.

But I want to edit the bookmark name before I save it, not afterward, since I won't be able to find my bookmark if I don't know what Chrome automatically named it. Also, I'd like to move all my Internet Explorer favorites in Chrome from the Imported from IE directory to the root of wherever Chrome stores favorites. AI want all my favorites sorted into the directories I assigned them, not grouped by the browser from which they were imported. Thanks, Orlando
