Many bookmarks missing going from xp to Windows 7

Question

I Saved the following files from xp:
places.sqlite
places.sqlite-shm
places.sqlite-wal
signons.sqlite
key3.db
bookmarks-2013-12-02_3268.json
+ all files with "cookies" in it. Why I didn't copy the whole profile folder, I don't know, I'm stupid.
However, almost everything worked except 100eds of bookmarks that I had in this field: http://bayimg.com/eadDhaAFI aren't there anymore.
As I said I had lots of bookmarks there and folders too. Where have thsese gone. My places.sqlite are still as big as it was before (20mb) but these bookmarks cannot be found. How can I get them back?
When I go to "show all bookmarks" and search for bookmarks that I had in that field, it doesn't find it.

Hello,
Firefox automatically creates backups of your bookmarks, which can be helpful if your bookmarks are lost or missing. To recover them, follow the instructions below.
#Use <u>one</u> of these methods to open the Bookmarks Library window:
#*Click the ''[[Display the Firefox button menu instead of the menu toolbar|Firefox button]]'' to open the menu and click on ''Bookmarks''.
#*Click the ''Bookmarks'' menu and click on ''Show All Bookmarks''.
# At the top of the Library window, click the "Import and Backup" menu and select Restore.
# Click the date of the bookmark backup you want to recover.
# In the new window that appears, click OK.
# Your bookmarks from the selected date should now be restored.
For more information, see the [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]] article. For other solutions, see the [[Recover lost or missing Bookmarks]] article.
