Uppdated to 18.0.2 and suddely all my bookmarks are gone. Restore does not work.

Hi There. Just updated to 18.0.2 and all my bookmarks (16 years!!!) are gone. Tried restoring but Firefox says it can't read the files.
What to do?
Best / Michael

Problems with bookmarks and history not working properly can be caused by a corrupted places.sqlite database file.
You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox Profile Folder.

You can also try to reboot the computer or run Firefox once as Administrator.

Whenever I opened Firefox Start Page, all my bookmarks were displayed on the left side. I accidently hit something, and now all my bookmarks are gone. Help.

Firefox has a Bookmarks Sidebar you can open and close using Ctrl+b. That's pretty easy to hit if you're trying to bold something, but if a website doesn't intercept it, then it affects your sidebar.
Was that it?

I use firefox 16 on windows 7 with Xmarks and now all my bookmarks are gone.

I recently began using Xmarks with Firefox 16 on a Windows 7 platform. I got some sort of an error message (I think from Xmarks) regarding "Bookmarks". I clicked on the message to fix the problem and zapp all my bookmarks were gone. I found my "bookmarksbackup" profile file. but can't get it to open. I suppose that I need a JSON viewer. I downloaded a opensource viewer that looked good, but still don't get anything that remotely resembles my old bookmarks. I thought that I might be the victim of a virus, but I'm probably just the victim of my own ignorance.

hello pianonanda65, please refer to [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]]

Ran software update and now all my bookmarks are gone.

I ran a software update and when I opened Safari I noticed all my bookmarks are gone. I located the Bookmarks.plist and it shows nothing of my old (2 1/2 years worth of) bookmarks in it. Is there any way I can get them back or am I toast?
Any help would be great.

You may be toast.
Do you have any backups of your system, or at least your user library file?
Have you used Spotlight to search your system? The installer via Software Update updates the app, however leaves the Safari folder in the User Library alone. If for some reason you moved this folder, a new one would be created when you started up Safari after the update.
Please post back.

Firefox did an update on 5/4/2011 and now all my bookmarks are gone?

why did all my previous bookmarks disapear when i started firefox this morning it was like i never had them at all i cant even go back in the history to find them i tryed to relogin on my pc and the whole reboot thing but nothing
OMG they are gone and now i have places i can not get into cause they are gone!!!!!!!!
To bad firefox has to update like every 3 months

When did this happen?
Firefox 4 saves 10 rotating backup, one each day that you start Firefox. So you can try to restore the bookmarks from an older JSON backup. The file size can be an indication about how many bookmarks are in the file.

I recently got my laptop updated and Firefox was deleted and now all my bookmarks are gone. Is there any way to get them back?

I had over 20.000 bookmarks and I really want them back. Please tell me theres some kind of backup system. Been using Firefox as long as I can remember and I love it!

Did you create a backup of the Firefox profile folder?

Something happened to safari on my iPhone5 and now all my bookmarks are gone

How do I get them back? I have no idea what even happened. I just went to go look for one thing I bookmarked and I just noticed that everything is gone.

After an automatic upgrade, all my bookmarks are gone, none of the troubleshooting answers help - how do I get them back?

I just simply turned on my computer and clicked FireFox as always. Looks like some updates installed and now all my bookmarks are gone. I've looked at all related troubleshooting answers and nothing works. How do i get my bookmarks back?

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

If you are unable to reset the iPod (assuming the hold switch is not in the On position either), then you'll have to let the iPod's battery fully drain. Then connect it to a charger and leave it to charge for a couple of hours.

You should be importing pics to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera. Nothing should only be on your iphone. You should keep everything on your computer.
If you have failed to do this, then they are gone.
You can try restoring from backup.

I was trying to rename my home folder I then restart my computer and now all my stuff are gone. Can anyone help?

Choose Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu, provide /Users/ as the path, and move the files to your current home folder. Alternatively, open the Accounts or Users & Groups pane of System Preferences, unlock it, control-click your account, choose Advanced Options, and change the path to the home folder.

The iphone is designed to be synced to your computer regularly. Your contacts will be in whatever program you have chosen to sync. Just sync them back
