Every few weeks my bookmarks disappear from my Firefox start page, my home page is Comcast, any idea why
Bookmarks I have put on the menu bar and in the drop down bookmark screen just disappear, no obvious reason, I do nothing different. This started a few months ago, has happened twice since (including today), never happened in years of use previously.

Have you been resetting/refreshing the browser?
Look on your desktop. Do you see a folder called; Old Firefox?

When did you start using the beta version? Was there an update?
These can't get your data back, but will help in the future.
These add-ons can be a great help by backing up and restoring Firefox
FEBE (Firefox Environment Backup Extension) {web link} FEBE allows you to quickly and easily backup your Firefox extensions, history, passwords, and more. In fact, it goes beyond just backing up -- It will actually rebuild your saved files individually into installable .xpi files. It will also make backups of files that you choose.
