How do you get your old bookmarks back that is gone from firefox upgrade?

Firefox really screwed up with the bookmarks with the new browser. I found another work around besides the other post. You may need the older browser so go to the other link and install the older browser after you uninstalled the new browser. Right now I am using Palemoon browser to post this which is a true 64bit browser and looks like a clone of Firefox. Really impressed with Palemoon so I am going to continue to try it out.
Go here for instructions to restore your old bookmarks. Like I said you may need to reinstall the older Firefox. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/restore-bookmarks-from-backup-or-move-them?esab=a&s=restore+bookmark+from+backup&r=0&as=s#w_restoring-from-backups
If your bookmarks are on another PC computer go where Firefox keeps a backup of your bookmarks in your pc. In Windows 8 it is located in
C:\Users\lion\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\5eczdook.default\bookmarkbackups
In Windows 7 and XP it is located somewhere in the AppData. Just browse to the AppData folder and find your way to Mozilla
In the Mac it is similar but in the Library I believe. With a Mac just use common sense and Linux basics.
Once you located the bookmarks, look for the file with the date you want. Copy that sucker and paste it in the proper folder on the other computer where you want your bookmarks restored. Then run the Restore and mentioned above.
Your done!
If you want to check out Palemoon goto http://www.palemoon.org/ ...Palemoon defaults with Duckandgo search engine which is an up and coming search engine that doesn't track you and provides listing that focuses on keywords. I am liking it also.

Hi gman411,
This forum is for questions about Firefox. Please see the Palemoon forum [http://forum.palemoon.org/]

  • HT202213 How do you get your old songs back on your device?

    Do I use iCloud or HomeSharing?

    That depends on where the songs are. If they are on your computer, you can sync them with iTunes.
    Connect the iPad to your computer with the cable
    Launch iTunes
    Click on the iPad name on the left under "Devices"
    Click on the Music Tab in iTunes on the right
    Click on all of the artists, or playlists that you want to sync - or choose the "Entire Library" option
    Make sure that the Sync Music heading is checked
    Click on Apply or Sync in the lower right corner of iTunes
    I don't use iTunes Match, (the cloud), but this should explain it to you.

  • How do you get your old back ups back

    how do you get your old back ups back

    Typically iCloud and iTunes only save the latest backup. In reality, when you subsequently backup, the last backup is modified with the changes and you only have one backup. The except seems to be if you restore from backup it appears that that backup is retained.
    Go to Settings>iCloud>Storage and Backup>Manage Storage and to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and see if more than one backup is listed.

    how do you get your ring/text tones that were purchased back on your phone

    Hey there oops31,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you want to know how to get tones that you’ve previously purchased on your iPhone 4s. The article linked below outlines the options for downloading past purchases and includes information about syncing tones from iTunes to your iOS device.
    Download past purchases - Apple Support
    Audiobooks, ringtones, and tones
    If you made a backup of these items on your Mac or PC, you can sync the items to your iOS device. You can't download these items again from iTunes in the Cloud.
    Cheers,

    It boggles the mind.  The Verizon store on L Street downtown Washington, D.C. cannot access my Verizon account.  They can only sell cellphones then it's up to me to contact Verizon on my own to get the hook up. I even asked "Are you Verizon employes?  Is this a vendor store or is it really a Verizon owned and operated store?"  The answer "Yes, we are Verizon employes, yes this is a Verizon owned and operated store" ...
    Yes, it indeed boggles the mind.  I'm of course referring to the fact that your post concerns Verizon Wireless products and services.  This forum is dedicated exclusively to Verizon Communications services.   As you probably know, Verizon Wireless and Verizon Communications operate as separate companies.
    If you need help for a Verizon wireless product or service, it's best to direct questions to the Verizon Wireless forums.  You can reach them by clicking on "Wireless" (either here or at the top of the page).
    Good luck and I sincerely hope you get your issue resolved.

  • IMac Replacement Program - Do you get your old drive back?

    Hello all,
    As per question really.
    I have a CCC clone of all my data but still wary about deleting everything off Macintosh HD.
    Do Apple give you your old drive back or not?
    Thanks.

    Apple doesn't give you the old drive. Seagate gets the hard disk to investigate what's the problem with the hard disk. That's why it's important to erase the disk with a security option if you don't want to give the hard disk with your data

  • How can I get my old bookmarks back?

    I tried copying and pasting the places.sqlite from my old harddrive onto my new one but it didn't do anything. Is there any way to get my bookmarks onto my new computer?

    Are you copying the places.sqlite file into your active profile folder? You can open your active profile folder this way:
    Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Open Containing Folder" button
    Close Firefox before copying the file in so it isn't overwritten when Firefox closes.
    Your '''old''' profile folder also should contain a folder named bookmarkbackups. You can restore a JSON file from that folder. See this article for more information: [http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Backing-up-restoring-bookmarks Backing up and restoring bookmarks | How to | Firefox Help].

    running windows 7 with the new firefox
    computer was restored to windows 7 after it stopped working. still has the same drive and i still have all of my old files in the "windows.old" folder.
    how do i restore my bookmarks that i had from before the crash?

    Your bookmarks (and history) are in a database file named places.sqlite in your old Firefox profile folder. If you restore that folder to the expected location, you should pick up where you left off (which is good if Firefox was working well at the time).
