How to retrieve deleted bookmark folder

I mistakenly deleted a bookmark folder on my Mac that contained career search options from the past few months - - -yikes!! I'm hoping there is a way to retrieve it. Any help would be appreciated.

Firefox makes backups of your bookmarks at regular intervals, so you may be able to roll back a few days to the last backup.
But first, please create an export file of what you have now. In case there is a gap in your backup, the export file can be re-imported and you can recover those recent additions. (And then get rid of the duplicates.)
* [[Export Firefox bookmarks to an HTML file to back up or transfer bookmarks]] - choose a convenient location like the desktop, then open the file in a Firefox tab to confirm that it contains the expected data before proceeding
* [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]] - when you restore a JSON backup, it replaces all of your current bookmarks completely (therefore, please do the export!)
Any luck?

    How to retrieve deleted web history.

    If it's firefox, the complete setup is in ~/Library/Application\ Support/Firefox/Profiles.  You can just go get the whole Profiles directory off of a Time Machine backup, grabbing a time slice that was before you deleted the stuff.

  • How to I delete a folder in Contribute 3?

    How do I delete a folder in Contribute? It is easy enough to
    delete files, but I can't see any way of deleting folders on the

    I'm pretty sure that's beyond contribute. It's just meant to
    be a simple content management solution, not a site management
    solution.

  • Please can someone explain how to retrieve deleted text, I was clearing old text when one came through at the same time so was also deleted.

    Can someone please tell me how to retrieve deleted text. i was clearing old texts when a new one came through at the same time and was deleted also.  My last update was  iOS 8.1.2

    You restore from a backup that was created after the text was received but before it was deleted.
    But if you literally deleted it right after it came in, then it's not recoverable.  Have the other person resend the text.

  • How do I delete a folder?

    Just so ou all new I am a brand new Mac user.
    How do I delete a folder in Leopard? I'll highlight a folder, press delete, go to file and select move to trash but it wont do anything. However if i open the folder I can delete the individual files within the folder. Its frustrating! Also every time I click on delete or move to trash it keeps asking for a password. Is there a way I can make it so it doesn't ask that each time I want to delete something?

    Normal way to delete a file/folder is: select file/folder, and command+backspace = put the selected file/folder in the bin (U can ofcause just drag the file/folder to the bin with ur mouse). Then press commandshiftbackspace to empty the bin.
    Command = apple key next to the space key
    Shift key = key to the left with arrow (for uppercase letters)
    Backspace = Same as delete key (but macbooks dont have delete, just backspace)
    AND files/folders must be unlocked to b deleted. Select a file, Press command+I, in the newly opened info-panel uncheck "locked". The selected file is now unlocked and can b deleted.
    BUT as stated elsewhere MAC OS might have a good reason not to allow deleting of systemfiles. You may damage you system if deleting systemfiles.
    As a new Mac user, make it a habbit to ask here and in other mac forums. Mac people are generally very helpfull people, thow they might tease you a bit (they have plenty humor toooo).
    And as a courtesy to those who help out - let them know if you problem was solved.
    Once a mac - u never go back...
    Best regards

  • How do you delete bookmarks in your favorites on the bookmark bar?

    How do your delete bookmarks that you no longer want?

    Lynn
    Are you using Safari, or Chrome? Firefox? If in Safari go to Bookmarks then Show All Bookmarks, look for bookmarks bar, right click on the bookmark and select delete. Chrome and Firefox are similar. Go to Bookmark Manager see where your bookmarks are right click and delete. Hope this helps!

  • I can't delete a more than 10 bookmarks at a time, I can't delete bookmarks folder

    Firefox 25, Mac 10.8
    If I try to delete more than 10 bookmarks at a time or a folder with bookmarks in it, FF hangs, then says there's a script that isn't running properly & do I want to continue or stop the script - I've tried continuing but it just hangs again, and I've tried stopping the script but it still hangs..
    I've restarted FF, turned off Sync, turned on Sync.
    I tried exporting my bookmarks to html, to edit them in a file then re-import them, but the file was incomplete - it did not contain all the folder in My Bookmarks.
    Deleting bookmarks has been a pain ever since Sync was introduced, and Firefox doesn't have an official iOS app and the 3rd party ones don't work consistently, so I don't get much use from sync

    I'm sorry, I wasn't clear in stating my problem.
    I understand how to delete both bookmarks and folders containing bookmarks according to the instructions, and have done so easily in the past.
    But, since update to FF25 I haven't been able to delete a folder with bookmarks in it or more than 10-12 bookmarks at a time.
    I resolved the issue by quitting FF, importing my bookmarks into Chrome, using Chrome's import as FF also was not exporting a complete bookmark list. I cleared out some duplicates in Chrome, exported bookmarks from Chrome to an html file, removed the places sqlite file from my profile, deleted all FF bookmarks, and imported the bookmarks html file into FF, which created a new & functional places sqlite file with the same set of bookmarks as at the beginning. I can only think the places file was corrupted somehow during the update as that was the only file I had to delete to fix the issue - I can now move & delete folders with hundreds of bookmarks in them and delete as many bookmarks as needed at one time.
    "There is no way to select more than one item at a time in the right pane in the mac environnement. " (sic)
    I think you mean there is no way to delete more than 1 item at a time in the LEFT panel, the list of folders, not in the right panel, the list of bookmarks and the contents (bookmarks) of subfolders.
