How to restore bookmarks after fully uninstalling?

Hello, I accidentally fully uninstalled my firefox and cleared all the settings but I forgot to backup my bookmarks. Can I recover my bookmarks? I need them cause lots of important materials for my work was bookmarked there. Any kind of help will be greatly appreciated. And I used Iobit Uninstaller in advanced mode to uninstall firefox. Please help.

Best is to first find and undelete the previous profile folder and then undelete the bookmarkbackups folder in it with the JSON backups (bookmarks-####-##-##.json)
If you can recover an uncorrupted JSON back then you can use it to restore the bookmarks.

  • Restore bookmarks after uninstall

    Yesterday we changed internet service providers. They were unable to connect to the internet via firefox but were able to connect via firefox. We were advised to uninstall firefox and reinstall an updated version of it. It did not occur to us that all of the bookmarks would be erased. Is there a way we can recover this? I went throught the steps to "restore bookmarks but there are only "restores" for last night and today. Nothing previous. Is there any way we can recover the lost data on my mac? PLEASE?

  • I restored bookmarks after resetting firefox. Now when i try to bookmark a page none of the restored folders show up. How do i fix this?

    detail is in the question

    if you want to know where the folders you restored are placed they should be located in "all bookmarks" -> inside a folder called "restored bookmarks" or "backup"
    you have to manually drag the folders out of there and place them where you want them to be. then navigate (as normal) to that folder to add bookmarks to them.

  • How to restore photos after i tried to delete them, they are still there

    I tried to delete some photos to give me room on my start up disc. First I tried saving them to a thumb drive then tried deleting the pix. The photos come up blank but I still see them sometimes. how do I restore them completely.
    part 2 what is the best way to store them off the hard drive?

    assuming that you deleted them in iPhoto to totally remove them empty the iPhoto trash and then the system trash
    to move your entire iPhoto library to an external drive
    Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
    And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
    And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive
    How to restore them - if you deleted tehm in iPhoto open the iPhoto trash and right click on them and restore to library

  • How to restore documents after a clean install when location is not known?

    I have had some troubles with my computer recently and the person at the genius bar said I should wipe my drive clean and include everything except my library folders and system folder. The only thing I don't know how to restore is documents that aren't stored in a known location in the finder. What I mean is programs like LittleSnapper or Macjournal that have their files contained with the application (in another words I don't go to the Finder to save or open these documents.)
    I did a search for some files from "Things" and it looks like these get stored under the library. Therefore if I choose to not restore the library (like the Genius said) wouldn't I lose access to these files?! LittleSnapper appears to save it's files in a hidden folder on the hard drive called "private". How can I restore that folder if I don't even have access to it?
    Do I just export the files from these programs to the finder and then reimport them later? "Things" doesn't even appear to have a way to export it's files that I know of.
    Thanks in advance for any help you can provide in this matter.

    "No program keeps stuff in the private folder."
    The reason I thought that is if you open a LittleSnapper screen shot in Photoshop or where ever and then command click on the windows title it shows the private folder on the file's path.
    "Before you do reformat, try creating a new user account. See if you're problem still exist within that new user."
    Yes I still have the problem with the new user account.

  • How to reset bookmark after audiobook has finished playing?

    I get audiobooks through audible.com. When playback is stopped a bookmark is saved. When playback is resumed it is possible to advance or rewind from this point. However, when an audiobook has played through to the end (sometimes accidentally) the book mark is at the very end so that the file does not actually begin to play at all! This makes it impossible to rewind it. The only way I have found to do this is when the iPod is conncected to iTunes where there is a slider associated with the file which can be adjusted. How can a bookmark at the very end of an audiobook file be reset when the iPod is not connected to anything?

  • How can I restore bookmarks after I pressed clear data for Firefox on Android

    I have pressed clear data for Firefox in Android Application manager. On SGS4 it is Settings->Options->Application manager->Fitefox->Clear data. Can I restore my bookmarks now?

    Android's Clear Data button completely deletes your Firefox settings files. I am not aware of any way to undo that unless there is an "unerase" tool for Android files as there are on desktop operating systems.
    Some ways you might have made a copy of those bookmarks:
    * Did you ever set up Firefox Sync and sync the bookmarks to a Firefox Account?
    * Did you ever use the [https://addons.mozilla.org/android/addon/copy-profile/ Copy Profile add-on] in Firefox for Android?

  • How to restore files after a Hard Drive crash?

    I just had my Hitachi 320 Gb Macbook HD crash (out of the blue started clicking when restarted, and the folder with question mark appeared).
    Good news is that I have a duplicate of the entire HD (using Retrospect "duplicate" function) from about a week ago.
    I have installed a new HD in my MacBook and I'd like to restore all my old files without losing any bookmarks, preferences, having to re set up email etc.
    I thought I could just drop the whole Retrospect duplicate on to the HD but that didn't work, then I loaded the OS X disc (10.5.6) and tried getting everything on to the HD using Migration Assistant, but nothing showed up in the Migration Assistant box......?
    I know all the data I have backed up is good, I'm just looking for the best way to avoid having to manually drag everything over in case I miss ssome things, or there are some preferences etc that are stored someplace and I miss them?
    Also, does the user name have to be exactly the same for this to work (my name was mis spelled by one letter on the old HD, should I make my new user name match?
    Thanks for any help!
    Alan.

    Boot from the external drive that contains the duplicate. Use Disk Utility to prep the new drive:
    Extended Hard Drive Preparation
    1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID (for Intel Macs) or APM (for PPC Macs) then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    When formatting is completed use the Restore option of DU to restore your clone to the new hard drive:
    Clone using Restore Option of Disk Utility
    1. Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
    2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
    3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
    4.Check the box labeled Erase destination.
    5. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
    6. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
    7. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    Destination means the new drive.
    Source means the clone drive.
