boolkmarks gone to favorits and can'nt retreve them

Hello Patsee.
Although possibly not related to your problem, I will remind you that the version of Firefox you are using at the moment has been discontinued and is no longer supported. Furthermore, it has known bugs and security problems. I urge you to update to the latest version of Firefox, for maximum stability, performance, security and usability. You can get it for free, as always, at [http://www.getfirefox.com getfirefox.com].
As for your issue, hopefully this support article is what you need:

  • I have no bookmarks in Firefox 4 and can't restore or import any.

    After I upgraded (?) to Firefox 4, I opened Bookmarks - Show All Bookmarks and it was empty. None of my bookmarks, no default bookmarks, no bookmarks at all. Weird, but easy to fix, or so I thought. I went to Import and Backup, Restore, and picked a date two days old. I got the expected This will replace all of your current bookmarks with the backup. Are you sure? and clicked OK. It immediately pops up Unable to process the backup file. Next I tried the same with two more dates with the same results.
    Okay, let's try to import. Selected Import HTML then From HTML file and selected the one I created before I updated Firefox. I could see the bookmarks in the preview pane at the right, so I know they are there. I click Open and the dialog box goes away, but no bookmarks. No error message, no bookmarks.
    I then picked a website, went there and clicked Bookmark This Page. I tried this with a few pages. No bookmarks, none, not one.
    I uninstalled Firefox and installed it again, watching carefully for errors, problems, anything. It seemed to go fine, but still no bookmarks. I tried all the above steps and got the same results. I tried Firefox Safe Mode and once again, you guessed it, no bookmarks.
    I looked in support and the forums. All I found was people who were unhappy with Firefox 4 and the advice Go to Import and Backup . . . yeah, that doesn't work.
    I returned to Firefox 3.6.13 and did a restore from two days ago and it worked fine. I had bookmarked a site since that date, so next I imported from the HTML file I created before this mess all started and that worked fine as well. This proved that the HTML file and the JSON file were not the problem. I'll stay with Firefox 3.6.13 until they fix this problem with Firefox 4.

  • Where has the Application Bar gone in CS6 and can I get it to show?

    I use this a lot in CS5 and notice it isn't showing in CS6, is there any way to make it show?

    The Application Bar was intentionally removed. A majority of users told us they'd rather have the extra vertical space for their images than the Application Bar.
    All of the commands are available elsewhere or can be access more easily with keyboard shortcuts:
    Mini-bridge is accessible from the bottom panel (now a part of the default UI).
    Cmd + Opt + o (Mac) Ctrl + Alt + o (Windows) to launch Bridge.
    Show Guides: Cmd + ; (Mac) Ctrl + ; (Win)
    Show Grids: Cmd + ' (Mac) Ctrl + ' (Win)
    Show Rulers: Cmd + r (Mac) Ctrl + r (Win)
    Zoom level can be controlled via keyboard shortcuts or UI found at the bottom of the document window.
    You can access the arrange options under the Window>Arrange> menu
    Screen mode has been added back to the bottom of the tool bar.
    CS Live has been discontinued.

  • Why did Firefox reset itself and delete all my bookmarks and favorites and how can i restore all my important information ? thank you .

    Hello , this is what happen ! I turned on my Desktop from being in sleep mode and as it came on Firefox restored everything and made me lose all my settings and all my toolbar favorites and bookmarks , all my work was on here and all the compan y's I have dealt with in automobile restorations .
    I tried a system restore from a date of a week ago but nothing came back , I really need someones help to restore my Favorites .I would also like the other version of firefox I feel lost with the version I have now and I dont like change .
    Thank you .

    Click on "Bookmarks" in your "Menu Bar".
    Next click on "Show All Bookmarks"
    The Library Dialog will open to you bookmarks. At the top of the dialog will be the option to "Import and Backup". Click "Import and Backup" scroll down to "Restore", when your hovers over "Restore" a list of backed up bookmarks should appear. If not, quite possibly Firefox has not been saving backups.
    You can also manually save bookmark backups from the "Show All Bookmarks" portion of the Library by clicking "Import and Backup", and then "Backup..."
    Also if you open another tab, you can type "about:config" in the address bar and press <ENTER>. This opens options not normally accessible. The first time it gives you a warning, you can disable the warning or leave it in place for the next the you open "about:config".
    In the Search Bar type "bookmarks" and press <ENTER> . A list of attributes should narrow down to a few attributes about bookmarks. Look for "browser.bookmarks.max_backups" see what value is set... it should be set to "10". It sets the maximum number of automatic updates. To change it to a different value double click that attribute and increase/decrease just don't go overboard. Also you can delete older backups, just be careful. My bookmarks are listed with the newest ones first.

  • Can no longer get safari to work on my ipad.. bookmarks gone..etc.

    I can no longer get safari to work. bookmarks gone..google will bring up cnn.com but I can't scroll it or get ride of keyboard...

    First, double tap on the home button and your recent apps will appear in an area across the bottom of the iPad. Find the Safari icon and hold down on it until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the icon to quit the app. Tap the Home button again to stop the apps from wiggling then tap anywhere on the screen to return to the home screen.
    Now go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, clear cookies, clear cache. Then tap the home button again to return to the home screen.

  • I formatted my hard drive and have tons of bookmarks I saved, but I can't figure out how to get them from my old folder into my new folder for my bookmarks.

    I formatted my hard drive and backed up all my bookmarks to an external hard drive. I now want to take my bookmarks from my external hard drive and put them into my freshly formatted computer but I can't seem to find the place on my hard drive to save my bookmarks to. I searched everywhere online and it keeps telling me to import an html, but that doesn't help when I have about 20 bookmark folders and about 100 bookmarks altogether. Please help. Thank you.

    '''''"... I have about 20 bookmark folders and about 100 bookmarks altogether. " '''''
    Firefox doesn't store bookmarks like that, sound like a Windows / IE favorites scheme used for '''''url''''' files and folders which isn't directly compatible with the way Firefox does things. Firefox uses a '''json''' file for bookmark backups, a '''bookmarks.html''' for import and export is bookmarks, and stores the users bookmarks in the '''places.sqlite''' file, along with browsing history.
    Put those folders and bookmarks in the '''\user\Favorites\''' folder so they are in IE and export your IE Favorites in HTML format, so you can import them into Firefox.
    In IE:
    File > Import/Export - Export to HTML file
    ''then in Firefox:'' <br />
    Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks -> Import & Backup - Import HTML... = From HTML file

  • How do I create a LINK to BOOKMARKS which will open FireFox like favorites and IE ?

    Click on a 'link' in FAVORITES and the default browser will open and present the web page for the link!
    HOW do I CREATE a 'BOOKMARKS' that will display my FireFox links that will open the default browser ((FireFox)) and present the web page for the link?????

    Firefox can export your bookmarks as a web page when you exit the browser, and you can set a specific location for that, so in theory you could have a shortcut to a reasonably up-to-date version of the file. I don't know whether it can be pinned to the Windows 8 start screen, but a shortcut on the traditional desktop interface should allow this regular swapping of the target file (or you could simply save it to the desktop directly).
    To set this up, you need to do a little work in the about:config preferences editor. Note: this is based on [https://support.mozilla.org/questions/967389#answer-465903 cor-el's post here], and I haven't tried it myself yet.
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''book''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click the '''browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML''' preference to switch it from false to true.
    When Firefox exits, your bookmarks should be exported to a web page named bookmarks.html in your currently active Firefox settings folder (profile folder). To change the location and/or file name:
    (4) Select and copy the following preference name:
    '''browser.bookmarks.file'''
    Next, right-click any existing preference and choose New > String
    Paste browser.bookmarks.file as the name and then Firefox will prompt you for the location. You can put anything temporarily, then come back and double-click to edit and paste in the desired full location and file name such as:
    C:\Users\''username''\Desktop\mybookmarks.html
    (Your ''username'' obviously will be different than mine...)

  • Why is there favorites and bookmarks in Safari?

    What is the difference between adding a web site as a Favorite vs Bookmark in Safari on my iPhone?  Why is there both and when do I use "bookmark" vs "favorite"?

    I'm not sure about the operation of bookmarks on Safari, but in Internet Explorer, there is a specific category in Bookmarks called the Favorites Bar. That is what shows up when you open Safari the first time on the phone. If you sync your bookmarks from the computer to the phone, then when you tap on the bookmarks icon on the bottom of the screen, you will see your entire bookmarks list from the computer. You can select any of your bookmarks from there. You also have the option to save a particular website to the homepage of the phone. The only problem with that versus using the bookmarks is the clutter on the homepage that would result.

  • HT200274 Most of my contacts are not available.  I see numbers in favorites and recent calls.  Most are deleted from contact log but some are still there.  I can type in the name and it brings it up.  How do I restore phone.

    Make that four.
    If you have any commercially advertised/available antivirus software installed on your Mac, completely uninstall this per the instructions on the AV developer's website.
    Antivirus software can slow down the normal operation of OS X and can negatively affect OS X performance and operation.
    Do you have apps like MacKeeper or any other maintenance apps like CleanMyMac 1 or 2, TuneUpMyMac or anything like these apps, installed on your Mac? These types of apps, while they appear to be helpful, can do too good a job of data "cleanup" causing the potential to do serious data corruption or data deletion and render a perfectly running OS completely dead and useless leaving you with a frozen, non-functional Mac.
    Plus, these type of apps aren't really necessary. They really aren't.
    There are manual methods to clear off unnecessary data off of your Mac that are safer and you have complete control over your Mac and not just leave a piece of auto cleaning software in charge of clearing off data off of your Mac.
    Their potential of causing OS X issues outweighs the implied good and benefits these types of hard drive or memory "cleaning" apps are written to do.
    Plus, the software companies that write these apps make it hard to easily uninstall these apps if something DOES go wrong and these apps work in a way where you have no recovery or revert function to return your Mac back to its former, working state in the event something does go wrong.
    It is best to never, EVER download and install these types of apps.
    The risk to your system and data is too great a risk!
    Search the web to learn how to correctly and properly uninstall these kinds of apps.
    They all uninstall differently.

  • When I scroll over bookmarks a long list that I moved to my new computer as HTML show up, but when I try to bookmark a new file, and select "choose" no files in my list show up. I also can't seem to find "organize bookmarks"

    I can't organize or add to my files. I just got a new computer and wanted to save old Firefox bookmarks. As above, when I drop down my menu of bookmarks and files, all the ones I imported are there. However, when I try to bookmark a new website and try to "choose" a place to organize it, none of my past bookmarks and files for organizing bookmarks show up. Help!

    Hi,
    You can try deleting the '''places.sqlite''' file which stores the bookmarks + history, in your [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder Firefox Profile Folder] after exiting Firefox. You can also open the profile folder via Firefox '''Help''' ('''Alt '''+ '''H''') > '''Troubleshooting Information''' > '''Open Containing Folder'''. The file will be recreated at the next Firefox startup. You can restore the bookmarks from a backup or via '''Bookmarks''' ('''Alt''' + '''B''') >''' Show All Bookmarks''' > '''Import and Backup''' > '''Restore'''. From here you can also '''Export Bookmarks to HTML''' and later '''Import Bookmarks from HTML'''.
