Firefox updated its version on my iMac desktop two days ago and all my bookmarks are gone. There's a message at the top that says: "For quick access, place your bookmarks here on the bookmarks toolbar. Manage bookmarks..."

All my bookmarks are gone as if they were never there. I have a My Passport Backup hard-drive but I don't know where I can find them and restore them.

OMG someone please help me...I have used Firefox forever as my work browser. I have saved passwords to client accounts for 3rd party sites, etc. It has EVERYTHING. I updated my Mac with the latest software install today and when I opened Firefox it didn't restore my tabs. I got stuck in a loop where it would not update to the current version of Firefox. I uninstalled Firefox and re-installed it and LOST EVERYTHING. I AM FREAKING OUT because all my bookmarks are lost and I don't even know what they are - I have tried to restore bookmarks and it goes back to 2022 and 2023 and when I restore nothing happens. ANYONE SOMEONE please tell me you know how to help me find my stuff otherwise I am cooked.

The launch of Firefox Profiles seems to have obliterated everything in my account: bookmarks, history, open tabs, and extensions are all gone completely. I have an option to import files from another browser, but not from my own past firefox. I logged into my Mozilla account, but I didn't have any other devices so I think it was still unable to recover the data? Is there anything I can do about this, or is all of my data truly gone?

My Firefox book marks have disappeared. The toolbar is open but has nothing to display.

I've gone to my Firefox Library window, but the entire page is blank. The table gives no entries for Name, Tags, or Location. Lines below (Name, URL, Location, Tags, and Keyword) are empty.

Searching my MacBook Air I found my Firefox Profile folder. In it there's a folder ending in "default-release". That folder contains a folder called "bookmarkbackups" containing files with titles indicating recent backups.

How can I restore my booksmarks?

For some reason all of a sudden my bookmarks don't show their identification icons that are associated with that web site. Those icons are to the immediate left of the site address. I used to use those colored icons as a quick reference to select the web site I wanted. Being I have MANY bookmarks, those icons to the left were a GREAT help to locating a specific bookmark.

   I could locate a bookmark by the web site icon that is shown to the left of the site address. Now that icon just shows a non colored ball with globe in it.
  Is there a way to show a earlier date of my bookmarks? Maybe that way I could see the old bookmark menu the way it used to be shown when I accessed my bookmark menu? 
   Can someone please help. Thank you.
