My problem is urgent.

I installed the latest FF at home and it lost all my bookmarks from 3.6.28.

Now Flash Player refuses to work with FF 3.6.28 ...AT WORK. This will cause horrendous problems in 2 days time, Mon 2 April. That is why I have stayed late for three hours of my own time to try to sort this out.

There are NO error messages. Flash content simply will not load.

If I install FF 4.0, I cannot spend half a working day searching and re-saving 400-500 indispensible work bookmarks.

So.... there can only be 2 solutions that can work for me and my employer....

- either please advise how 3.6.28 can be made to work with Flash Player

- or instruct how to install FF 4.0 without losing indispensible work bookmarks.

Doing my job effectively on Monday depends on this!

Please help urgently!

Thank you Will Golden

You shouldn't be losing bookmarks when you update to Firefox 11.

If that does happen then you may have a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

You would need to install Flash player 10.3.183.18 to make it work in Firefox 3.6.x (Flash player 11.2.x needs at least Firefox 4+)
