I've been looking to recover my file history. I accidentally deleted my file history. I looked into recovery. I found out how using a youtube video. Using Sqlite recovery app on this file "places.sqlite." However, when I search and looked up a few things, it was basically the history I can already access and that only goes back from now to like december 2023. I want to go back a few years. Did I do something wrong using the sqlite app for that file?

I am on MacOS Monterey running Firefox 130.0. Tonight, I restarted my Mac. Upon startup, Firefox offered to restore my session, as always, but it did not restore everything. In fact, I had one window open that had many tabs (some important) and that is gone.

I'm a bit puzzled and I wonder if I've found a bug?

Hi!

After computer reset I can't open my Firefox, it keeps showing that it's crashing. I have a few really important tabs there and would like to know if it's possible to reinstall it and still keep my tabs from previous session?

Thank you, Tijana

Hihi

I had to factory reset my computer and when i re-downloaded Firefox and logged in my bookmarks where no where to be found. I've look through some the the fixes and they don't seem to work is there anyway to recover my bookmarks?

Today I installed a clean WIN10 version on my PC, expecting to just log into firefox afterwards and have all the data back within minutes, but I forgot my Firefox password... As I'm currently in another country I also couldn't just log in on any of my other devices to recover the password, so I decided to reset it via the E-Mail... well aparantly changing your password deletes the sync data?? I'm guessing there is no way to recover the data? So I got a relative of mine to start my backup notebook which has not been synched for a few months but some data should've still been there, at least I had thought so... password database there was empty... and instead of synching the firefox landing page from my notebook where all my pinned pages were, it copied the page from the new device and wiped that as well... Any way to revert the sync changes on the notebook?

Dear sirs, A few weeks ago I must have hit a button or two that made all my bookmarks disappear, about 200 or so. How do I get them back? Please help Harris Bartine Email removed for privacy reasons

Dear Firefox community ,

I am encountering an issue when attempting to save a PKCS#12 file in Firefox. The following error message is displayed:

• "Failed to save the PKCS#12 file for an unknown reason."*

I have tried saving the file multiple times, but the error persists. Could you please provide guidance or potential solutions to resolve this issue?

Thank you for your assistance.

I have a new computer that I want to sync my bookmarks to. I don't remember my password or recovery key (if I have one). I don't want to lose my bookmarks. How can I save them if my account gets reset and they are deleted?

Hi, I've had a Firefox account for a long time. I recently formatted my computer and reinstalled Windows. I signed in to my Firefox account, but it won’t let me import my bookmarks. Can you please help me? Thanks, Sam

I have been using Mozilla Firefox on my old account and I had a profile, with my data and website passwords saved on this account. On the 5th of September my laptop was stolen. Since then, I could not get access to my old data anymore as if I never had an account with Mozilla Firefox before. My account was through my Email: hanichbib@gmail.com.

Please help me recover my data. Thank you.

I have been a firefox user for 5 years now and i gave my laptop to repair and it was fixed with an ssd (HP NVMe SSD) to better performance and more speed and efficiency but in the process he rebooted and restarted the pc and now all my data is not there , i have some very important webpages and bookmarks in my firefox browser, i had signed in synced and done everything so that i get the data if something like this happens , however and only 3 or 4 bookmarks were imported and all the search history is gone and new even though i signed in with all my accounts and synced and tried to get the data , i remember that i did everything properly to sync and store the account data,search history,bookmarks and password s and now i am not able to get it and i tried doing it with all accounts i had logged in firefox.how do i get my search history,bookmarks,saved passwords back please tell?

I am signing into my Mozilla account on a new computer with a clean Firefox install. I'm able to get into my account using an authorization code to my email, but Firefox Sync isn't working so no bookmarks/passwords/history/etc. I have a persistent "account disconnected" with a yellow triangle icon. Upon clicking through, I see "Please sign in to reconnect [my email address]" with a sign in button. Signing in does nothing. What's really strange is that my other Mozilla account works fine, which leads me to believe this is an account issue—except that I've synced this account across several devices already.

What do?

I utilize folders for organizing bookmarks. Twice now I have had one of my bookmarks deleted by Firefox and I do not know what to do to stop it. Unsure of what I was doing the first time when I realized it had happened. This time, just a couple of hours ago, I was organizing my bookmarks and it was there and I did put a new bookmark in it. When I was done I went into Firefox and opened the tab to make sure it was working correctly and after closed everything out. I did not delete anything but some older bookmarks and made sure that no folders were highlighted and in fact, the folder in question was there before I closed out of Firefox. I come back, without shutting my computer down, open Firefox and it was gone. This is at best frustrating and at worst makes me want to use another browser altogether.
