Bookmark missing after updating to Firefox 31

Hi there!
All my book marks & history setting are gone when I did my update to Firefox 31. Tried to restore from the auto bookmark backup but is prompt with "Unable to process the backup file." Tried downloading the Place Maintenance as suggested but doesn't seem to make any difference.
Can't figure out how to deal with changing the profile part as I'm not exactly very tech savvy. Any step by step on how I should go about this?
I did not do any backup, export or migration prior to the update and is at a loss now that all my bookmark are gone. :(
Any advise are greatly appreciated!
Thanks folks!

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

NoScript v2.4.6 icon missing after updating to firefox v13.0.1

I can no longer access the NoScript icon after the latest firefox upgrade, so I cannot turn Javascipt ON when reguired by a web page. Is there a fix, or is this a bug?

Many thanks for your prompt reply - it enabled me to fix this problem, and introduced me to another user-friendly firefox feature!

How do I remove the bookmark toolbar icons for websites? After updating to Firefox 22, add-ons don't help.

In the Bookmark Toolbar, the icons for websites take up too much space and are distracting. I used to use the Bookmarks - Deiconizer add-on but after updating to Firefox 22 it doesn't work anymore.
I tried adjusting the userChrome.css as in other posts but that does not work.
Please help!

Hi haweyext,
Did you see this thread from yesterday:
[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/964732 How do I keep the icons out of my Bookmarks Toolbar (tried Bookmarks Deiconizer) even after downloading files?]
If userChrome.css isn't working (note: you need to exit and restart Firefox before it takes effect), you can apply that rule to Firefox using the Stylish extension instead.
Does any of that help?

After updating to Firefox 7.0.1, menu bar for Google,yahoo, Facebook (message,notification,profile,home) and others site are disabled. How can solve this problem?

after updating to Firefox 7.0.1, menu bar for Google(web ,image,video,map etc),yahoo, Facebook (message,notification,profile,home) and others site are disabled. even I cant log out from different sites cz the log out bar is completely disabled. I tried with Firefox 4;5 and 6, same problem exist . I tried by active all add ons for facebook, same problem exist. If I use internet explorer , I don't find such problem with it.
How can I solve this problem?

Thanks a lot for your swift response. And sorry if it was a bit too hectic to go through my detailed query (which I did because it was misunderstood when I asked previously). As I've mentioned above, I was informed that updating to 5.0.1 would '''require''' me to '''delete''' the current version and then install the new one. And doing so will involve losing all my bookmarks. I guess I should have been more specific and detailed there. By losing, I didn't mean losing them forever. I'm aware that they're secured in some place and deleting and installing the software doesn't harm its existence. What I meant that if I install the new version, I'd have to delete the old one. And after installing the new version, I'd have to transfer them (bookmarks) back from wherever they are. Get it? When it updated from 3.6.9 to 3.6.13, and from 3.6.13 to 3.6.18, I didn't need to follow that process. They were already present on their own.
BTW, I'm having no problems with 3.6.18 but after learning about the existence of version 5.0.1, I'm a bit too eager to lay my hands over it.
Thanks for your help; hope this wasn't extremely long.

Did you have a sync account attached to the mobile device?
A third party back up may be required to restore the profile.

After updating to Firefox 8.01 all my add-ons are disabled & I have to manually reinstall those that still work after each reboot??

After updating to Firefox 8.0 & 8.01 all my add-ons were disabled.
I have to reinstall those that still can be enabled manually after each reboot. These, that I can reinstall, are:
Download Helper 4.9.7/WOT 20111107/Adblock 1.3.10/DivX plus Web Player HTML5 2.1.2.145/
All my other add-ons are incompatible with this version of Firefox! This includes Ghostery which I particularly miss,
This is annoying!

It is possible that there is a problem with the file(s) that store the extensions registry.
Delete the files extensions.* (e.g. extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini, extensions.cache) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox profile folder to reset the extensions registry.

New files will be created when required.

If you see disabled, not compatible, extensions in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the Tools button at the left side of the Search Bar (or click the "Find Updates" button in older Firefox versions) to do a compatibility check or see if there is a compatibility update available.

It sounds like you restored from an old back-up. Did you back-up just before your software update? It will use your last one and if your last back-up was a ywear old then it will use that one.
In general, if you are getting these messages on your iPhones select logout (when you get that Apple Id request) and then log back in with your newer ID.
Sorry for your losses.
Cheers

I got that message with all of my libraries. Do see if the galleries are still on your iDisk mount your iDisk and go to the iDisk/Web/Sites folder and look for a folder titled "_gallery". Inside of it should be folders for each of your galleries. The folders are titled with 6 digit numbers which makes it difficult to know which folder is for which gallery.
Thanks. "_gallery" is empty
Have you tried re-syncing as Larry suggested?
I'm sure it will work, but I'm perplexed as to how this could happen.
Do you find that iPhoto now launches faster? Perhaps it's because my web galleries are gone?

After update to Firefox 15 it crashes after javascript call window.close();opener.alert('test');. Is this working as intended or is it a bug?

After update to Firefox 15 it crashes after javascript call from a popup window.close();opener.alert('test');. Is this working as intended or is it a bug?

According to the pages linked to the crash ID, there is a bug report on this.
Does the crash occur as soon as you run those two lines of code, or after dismissing the alert()?
If this is your application, why are you running script commands after calling window.close()? Could you avoid the problem by using an approach like this:
 window.setTimeout(function(){opener.alert('test'},250);
window.close();

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in [[Safe mode]]:
* Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

Unable to install any addons after updating to Firefox 7.0.1

I am not able to install any addons after updating to firefox 7.0.1. Addons are still working. Addons will start to download but will get stuck at 100% download progress.

Old passwords appeared after update to firefox 32

After updating to firefox 32 all passwords added or changed in august disappeared or returned to their previous states. But if I downgrade to previous version all passwords are on the right place. How to fix this? Thanks.

hello, have you switched between firefox 31 and a higher version in august once - there has been a change in the database that holds your passwords and the migration will only take place once - the first time you update from firefox 31 to a higher version. if you switch back to 31 again afterwards (downgrading isn't a path that is commonly supported) your pw changes won't be reflected...

Can't pause flash with right mouse click on mac osx 10.6 after update from firefox 3 to 6

After updating my firefox 3... to firefox 6 I can no longer right click in a flash video and pause it

My camera is a 1Ds mk II..
and for that one it says
All versions tested. All versions tested. Supported only through Lightroom 4.1.
however, it also says
Windows XP, Vista, 7; Mac OS X 10.5 or 10.6
which is plain wrong, because Canon never supported any drivers for Windows Vista or Win 7, not to speak of XP 64bit. (You cannot connect the camera via firewire, without the device drivers!)
