bookmarks lost everytime I open Firefox 31 since update Mac OS X 10.7.5
have reset Firefox; uninstalled and reinstalled. Nothing works. Only way to get to bookmarks is cumbersome, many steps and slow. To do that, I have to pull down Bookmarks menu, Show All Bookmarks, go to 3 bars, reset bookmarks, wait, wait, wait, bookmarks come back but gone next time I close Firefox and reopen bookmarks gone.

You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox profile folder.

- https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Bookmarks+not+saved#w_fix-the-bookmarks-file
- Places Maintenance: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/places-maintenance/
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
- Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
I tried what cor-ei said, worked temporarily but when Firefox closed and reopened, same lost bookmarks problem
Try to repair the disk permissions:
The fix you suggest only covers up to Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) I have 10.7.5 installed which is Lion.
