How do I get my bookmarks back after I deleted the folder called "Profiles" accidentally

I deleted the profiles folder accidentally and restarted firefox, I signed in my account again and all Bookmarks, Add-ons and Preferences disappeared. Now how do I get them back?

Sorry about that. Unless you have a backup of your Profile your data is gone.

  • How can I get my bookmarks back after uninstalling Firefox?

    When uninstalling Firefox, it asked me if I wanted to delete my bookmarks, etc. I clicked in the check box to delete them, but after a couple days, I realized I should have saved them. Someone told me there is probably a temp folder that is hidden somewhere for just this reason. Can anyone help me get my bookmarks back please? Oh yea, my OS is Vista and I have reinstalled Firefox 3.6.8

    You can try with an undelete program like Recuva if you can restore a JSON backup in the bookmarkbackups folder.

  • How do I get my bookmarks back after updating to Windows 7?

    I updated to Windows 7 on a new hard drive. I backed up my C:\ drive to a Seagate external hard drive first. After installing Windows & all my programs. I restored the data from my Seagate drive, but I don't have any bookmarks from Firefox. I had over 50 bookmarks and they are all missing. I tried opening the backup and starting Firefox from inside the backup, but I got the newly loaded Firefox with no bookmarks. How can I get them back?

    The "Application Data" folder in XP/Win2K and the "AppData" folder in Vista/Windows 7 are hidden folders.
    * Use %APPDATA% in the "File name" field or make sure that you see hidden folders

  • How do I get my bookmarks back after update?

    I did the new update on my work Mac a couple days ago and it added all of my Safari bookmarks from my personal MacBook Pro. I deleted a few of the bookmarks that I didn't need on that Mac.
    I just did the update on my MacBook Pro, not thinking anything about it, and now a couple of full folders of bookmarks that I had are gone and all of the bookmarks from my Mac are there too. Is there a way to get my old bookmarks back and to prevent them from disappearing if I delete on one Mac and not the other??
    This is so frustrating...

    You get the import wizard if the profiles.ini file that registers all Firefox profiles is missing.

    You can check if there still is an older profile folder.

  • How do you get a message back after you deleted it?

    On accedent I deleted an important message and I need it back how can I get it back and I don't have I cloud

    Are you talking about text message or email?
    The only way to get a text message back is to restore from a backup that included that message.
    For email I would check your trash folder on your PC.

  • How do i get my contacts back after updation of the software on iphone 4S

    when i updated my iphone software to ios 6.0 all my contacts got deleted....what do i do?

    Hi there!
    May I confirm whether you used iTunes (while the iphone was plugged into the computer) to perform the update, or if the update was performed "wirelessly" through the device's settings?
    Regardless, your solution should lie within your last backup (typically performed automatically when the phone is "sync'd" with itunes on the computer).

  • How can i get my memories back after itunes deleted it?

    case is,
    i connected my iphone for the first time ever to itunes, it showed two options, to choose it as a new iphone or if i have any other user. so i thought i had an old user, so i just chose the second option. it appeared i didnt have any old user for my iphone but only for my ipod, and the next step itunes did was restarting my my phone, and deleting all of my memories. since it was the first time ive ever connected my phone to itunes i didnt do any back up for it, i didnt use icloud, nor dropbox. so what can i do to get my memories back?

    If you did not back up, they are gone.
    That's the whole reason to backup.

  • How can i get my bookmarks back, after mozilla crashed and got stuck in safe mode?

    I was using mozilla as usual when suddenly it crashed and then my computer turned off. i restarted it and said it had gone into safe mode. i tried to restart the computer again but it was stuck on safe mode.
    The bad part is that all my bookmarks are gone and apparently there is no way of getting them back.
    please help!

  • How do I get my bookmarks back after upgrading to Firefox 4?

    Well I just upgraded to Firefox 4 and I can't find my bookmarks.They were pretty important and I really need them.I'm pretty new to Firefox so I don't know if I lost them or not.If I did, can I get them back?

    This can be caused by a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • How do I get my pictures back after icloud deletes them without my approval?

    I upgraded to the new OS, 5.0.1 (9A405) and just like that, all my photos are gone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
    I would love to show you my newborn at day one or that incredible sunset at Key West, but they are gone, GONE!!!!!!!!!  I am not the only one having this problem, but I have not seen anyone with a solution to this major problem.  My phone is a iPhone 3Gs.  I brought up iTunes on my PC and the pictures are GONE there, too. 
    I am viewing the CAPACITY bar meter at the bottom of the iPhone summary page within iTunes, and it shows 0.39Gb in OTHER.  Could these be my pics????  I would love to know.  If you have any clues as to how to fix the problem, please let me know.  Thanks.

    Remember, icloud is someone else's server, in someone else's building, in another state.
    Restore YOUR pictures from YOUR backup hard drive that you have in YOUR possession.

  • Installed 4.0.1, bookmarks not migrated, backup exists but restore doesn't work. How do I get my bookmarks back?

    I upgraded to 4.0.1 today. After upgrading, I looked for my bookmarks but they were not present. I attempted to use the restore function. It appears to work, but still no bookmarks. I looked at my profile directory and the file I attempted to restore from under 'bookmarkbackups' has valid data in it. Why does restore not work? How do I get my bookmarks back?

    Woo,
    I reinstall the firefox (3.6.4 ) again. Then all of the above problems are gone. So, no need to worry....
