Firefox Community Forum

bold textI am trying to restore bookmarks in Mozilla from a stored bookmark.html file. When I go to manage bookmarks and choose restore then choose file, it does not show any files. Please advise

Honestly, I don't know that "topic" best describes my situation. I am not a "techy" and should not be required to be a "techy" to be able to use Firefox and have it not create terrible problems for me.

Where did my favorites and extensions and homepage go? I clicked "refresh" since you, Firefox, RECOMMENDED THAT I CLICK "REFRESH," and

EVERYTHING IS GONE.

Where is EVERYTHING? I cannot get it back and do not have anything saved. I trusted you. There is no Firefox folder saved to my desktop. There is NOTHING. I have simply lost about 50 FAVORITES PAGES that I NEEDED.

This is disgusting and a betrayal. Firefox? Never again.

bold textFirefox does not allow porting of bookmarks from one profile to another!!!!@!!!!!!!!! I can copy bookmarks to an external drive, but then how am I supposed to get them into another profile when the folder is the same as the one I copied--there is only one folder under library/application support etc. so doing it manually doesn't work; new profile gets error message, as account only allowed on 1 profile so Sync doesn't work.

I updated Firefox a few minutes ago and closed everything to let it finish. When I reopened it, all my bookmarks were gone. I checked the restore option in the Bookmarks menu, but only today's date was available, and clicking it did nothing. I found the bookmarkbackups folder in my profile directory, but there's only one file—859 bytes, which is basically empty. I'm signed into a Firefox account now, but my bookmarks aren't syncing from the server, which suggests they were never synced. Is there any way to recover them, or are they just gone?

The electricity here went out briefly. My I-Mac shut down. When the electricity came back on, the bookmarks were gone. And also, now I cannot bookmark anything-cannot initiate a new bookmark

I opened Firefox this morning and there were no bookmarks or history. After looking online, I came to the conclusion that I needed to find the places.sqlite and bookmarkbackups files and folders. However, I can't seem to locate either.

I am running Firefox v153.0 (aarch64) on Mac OS v. 26.5.2

I have Time machine backups, but I need help locating the correct files to restore. Thank you.

I lost all of my bookmarks and saved passwords with the latest update. How can I revert back to my old version so I can at least save them to a file to be imported?
