I get a 3.
Interesting you've been upgraded to Apple's new improved bookmarks syncing.

The hard part is that I don't think I can even blame BookMacster. It exports just fine to Safari. I don't even have syncing on so it's not like it can be breaking anything.
Probably true, although I'm not sure it's impossible for BookMacster to be at fault, particularly if the BookMacster version is earlier than 2.4.12. iCloud works in strange ways. You are on BookMacster 2.4.12 or later?

It's when I turn on iCloud syncing on one of my iOS devices that it all goes crazy.
I've trashed iCloud bookmarks dozens of times while during the last couple months, but always found deleting all bookmarks and starting over from scratch to fix everything. If the misbehavior indeed happens when you switch on iCloud syncing on a
iOS device, this implies that the iOS device still has bookmarks in it. Are you sure you are deleting all bookmarks in iOS devices too?

I should probably also mention that only have about 250 or so bookmarks. It's not like i have thousands. I do have a fairly specific folder structure, but nothing abnormal.
OK.
If you are using BookMacster 2.4.12, I'd like to see if I can reproduce the problem, using your data, on one of my iCloud test accounts. It is possible that something in your bookmarks is triggering some rare bug in BookMacster or iCloud. To send me your data,
Run BookMacster
Click in the menu: Help ▸ Trouble Zipper
For Question X (Extra Extension Tests), answer "No"
For Question B (Bookmarks), answer "Include Bookmarks"
In the list which appears, choose "Safari".
For Question L (Sync Logs), answer "Include Sync Logs"
For Question D (Documents), answer "Include Documents"
"Dropbox" me the resulting .zip, as instructed.
