I lost all my bookmarks and add ons , firefox sync restore only three addons and no bookmark.

I perfom a format to my computer and install firefox again but sync doesnt work.

Hello there,
Unfortunately Firefox Sync isn't meant to be used as a backup device, but merely to sync data between multiple devices. So it is not guaranteed that you can restore data from the Sync server.

    When I bring up my Mozillafirefox, all I get is a window with a blank white screen, (and the firefox logo). (After using Firefox very happily for over a year, I had to 'reinstall' Firefox 3.66 about a month and a half ago, (and lost all my bookmarks as a result therein), and hope I can get my firefox back this time without having to reinstall. Mozilla Firefox is still listed as one of my active programs). HELP! Is there a way to get my firefox back without reinstalling? Many thanks!

  • My internet connection went down for 24 hours when it resumed I had lost all my history and bookmarks and I can't get them back.

    Since my internet connection went down I've lost all my bookmarks and history. When I try and save pages to Bookmarks I'm unable to. I've also lost some of my taskbar items

    Firefox 3.6+ versions have a feature to allow the user to hide the Menu bar.
    Hit the '''Alt''' key to temporarily show the Menu bar, then open View > Toolbars and select Menu bar, so it has a check-mark. <br />
    The F10 can also be used on most PC's to temporarily reveal the Menu bar.

  • Updated and now it has lost all my history and bookmarks and won't open

    I updated Firefox on 9/18/11. No problems until yesterday 9/22/11. I opened firefox and a window came up saying something like -oops, how embarrassing, we lost all your bookmarks and saved pages. That was bad but then it also wouldn't open anything after that and the rainbow wheel came up and the app did not respond further. I've tried: turning the computer off and on, deleting and re-installing firefox. I called AppleCare and they suggested I call you. I have a MacBook Air. Please help.

    Thank you. I did just what you said and on my computer(sadly not an MacBook :( ) and I saw my things were still there. I "turned off" the iTouch and everything came back. But I did notice that every once in a while(it has happened 3 times within 15 days) my info(notes/contacts/calendar events/reminders/ and even access to my e-mail's junk folder) disappears randomly. Is there anything I should do to prevent it from doing that?

  • Lost all my bookmarks. According to Mozilla Health Check I got 58 (thought it was more). How to I get them back? Tried to follow your notes but got nowhere.

    I have iMac upgraded to Snow Leopard. 30/7/13 obliged to reboot my computer and when it restarted found I was upgrading to Firefox version 22. Lost all my bookmarks. Understand bookmarks are in profiles/places.sqlite. Upgraded to version 23 on 7th Aug. and repeated attempts to restore bookmarks have failed.

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

  • I lost all my bookmarks,after switching to 3.5 silent how can i get them back?

    i lost all my bookmarks,after switching to 3.5 silent how can i get them back?

    Clarification:
    I believe now you potentially lose all extensions, plug-ins when you use the new reset function, but you will let me know.
    If that is the case, your find corrupt file method maybe better. However, I reviewed the two help articles and there appear to be more files than just the delete search.json file and a possible search.sqlite file in the Firefox Profile Folder. I am confused. Then I have to find the folders. I think help articles mentioned how to find the profile containing the files, but not sure.

  • I lost all my bookmarks on my iPhone running IOS 6

    This morning, I lost all my Bookmarks on my iPhone 5 running IOS 6. Bookmark folders are still there, but they are empty 

    The places.sqlite file stores the bookmarks and the history, so if you replace the current version with another copy then you lose all current bookmarks and history.
    I don't know why you did restore that copy.
    You can restore the bookmarks via one of the backups in the bookmarkbackups folder, but that will replace all the current bookmarks as well.
    If you need to keep some then remove the others and export the bookmarks to an HTML file.
    Then you can import this HTML file to merge those bookmarks.

    There are no more detail. I just lost all my bookmarks. I want them back ! ! ! !

    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
