FireFox has lost all bookmarks after failure

• I have reset firefox and lost all bookmarks. No backups.

  First of all I discovered I could no longer type a web address directly into the address bar and access a site. Then, on the advice of online support, I reset Firefox, and the result was that I lost all my favorites. I tried backup to a recovery point, but it was not good. Help!

  For best results, I wouldn't use Windows System Restore feature. This can lead to mixed files that do not work well together...

  You're low space by chance? Reset feature duplicates a lot of data and sometimes it does not end when the disk space.

  Could you search for your old settings folder in the following two locations:

  • Windows desktop: the folder named "old data of Firefox.
  • Firefox profiles folder: copy the following text and paste it into the search box on the start menu, and then press ENTER:
    
    %AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
    
    You will certainly find your current (incomplete) record, but there is also an older file (old modified sense just before your reset).

  If you find one of them, recover bookmarks, you can restore a backup by following the steps described in this article: restore bookmarks from a backup or move them to another computer. At the step where you choose file, point you Firefox in this profile folder everywhere where you found it, and then in the folder bookmarkbackups inside.

  You can also save other settings of the folder. This article can help, or for more specific help post-return: recovery of data from an old profile.

  A bit of luck so far?

• Firefox has lost all the tabs and bookmarks on startup.

  Computer ran out of memory, I quit firefox because he did not like it usually does, and then when I restarted, all the Favorites have disappeared, the bookmarks bar is now empty and all the Add-ons have disappeared from the top of the browser, but not the background. However, all the Add-ons are still there, but not all work (e.g. further development of Reddit). I tried to restore the bookmarks or even import chrome, but this says it fails in the first case and terminates the process, but nothing happens in the second.

  What is going on? I really don't want to switch to chrome after using firefox for more than 5 years.

  You can check for problems with the database places.sqlite file in the Firefox profile folder.

• Fact a system restore and you need to download firefox so that it can work, but now have lost all bookmarks, is it possible to get them back?

  A system restore to see if that could solve the problem with registration to Xbox games. It corrects this problem, but firefox would not work. So I downloaded again, but now lost all bookmarks. Is it possible to recover?

  I don't see the restore function.

  Hmm, when you are in the dialog box (Ctrl + Shift + b) library, you have the menu "import and backup"? Restoration is expected to be in this menu.

• Upgrade windows 8 to 8.1 FF24 - lost all bookmarks. Help!

  With the help of FF24 for several days with windows 8. Today, after having "upgraded" to Windows 8.1, I lost all bookmarks. Interestingly, I also lost all my email in Thunderbird.

  I tried to import Firefox bookmarks from a windows vista without success machine. Try as a JSON file and HTML file.

  Before you go all bookmarks manually, I hope there is an easy solution.

  Thank you

  JR

  The Windows 8.1 update create a backup folder called C:\Windows.old? If so, your data can probably be found here:

  C:\Windows.old\Users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles

  These items can help with exploration and the recovery process:

• I asked firefox to block an image on my blog, but firefox has blocked all images on the blog, there are no images in posts, pages, the theme, each image have been removed from the blog. Is it possible to restore the images.

  Hi, I was working on my wordpress blog that uses the theme "Intrepidity". I wanted to remove a header image I added to the header but could not find a way to remove, so I click right for an option. the option I took was "do you want firefox to block the image? I clicked Yes, and this is the last time I saw a picture on the blog. Firefox has deleted all the images in the blog, even the side bars are gone, the header is not more, every single photo on the post, pages disappeared. The blog is just a shell now. Is there a way I could have restored the blog images. This is the name of the blog:
  http://www.weightlosscontrolreviews.com/

  With the display site, click the site identity button (for more details about what it is to see the How do I know if my connection to a Web site is secure? article), and then click more information. This will open the page info dialog box.

  First, select the permissions tab, make sure that 'Load the Images' is set to allow (default selection should work as well)

  Then select the media tab, and then click the first item in the list. Use the down arrow key to scroll the list. If any element has the option 'Images of block of (field name)' selected, deselect the option.

  This should hopefully solve your problem, but see also the problems that cause to not show images.

  Some add-ons can also block images, for example, if you have AdBlock Plus installed, make sure that you have not accidentally created a filter to block images.

• After the upgrade to Windows 8 Pro, I lost all bookmarks in FireFox. Favorite Internet Explorer are intact. How can I restore bookmarks firebox?

  Internet Explorer Favorites are intact, but Firefox bookmarks disappeared. Shady shot from Microsoft!

  OK, so I found my backups. That's how I did it.

  1 make sure you can see hidden files/folders - in Explorer in Windows 8, click view, and then make sure that "hidden object" is checked

  2. go to:
  \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\c9i1rqwk.default\bookmarkbackups C:\Windows.old\Users\ < yourusername >

  3. I copied the newest .json file from here to my office

  4. open Firefox, then open the bookmarks library

  5. click on import and backup, and then restore, then "Choose file". Identify the .json your desktop file.

  That's what me sorted. If all goes well it can help you.

• lost all bookmarks with Firefox 34.05 was last updated

  My favorites have been fine for years. And I have a lot. Now they are ALL gone!

  After that I've upgraded to the latest 34.0.5 Firefox, the bookmarks bar is empty and is so the list of dates of Firefox updates have been applied. Where they go, why is Firefox is no longer showing them and how can I get back them?

  With the enormous problems that FIrefox has continually to provide updates that work actually, it seems that Firefox cruelly an option "back out upgrade" so you can always revert to the previous version... Please implement as soon as POSSIBLE.

• Firefox has lost my passwords and account synchronization information

  I need help fixing and diagnose a problem:

  (1) all my passwords that are 'saved' in Firefox have disappeared. I noticed that, when a site was filling in my passwords more and checked this by checking the Security tab in the menu options.

  (2) my sync account details are in the past. In the menu 'Tools', it now says "Set up the sync.." instead of "Synchronize now". If I go to the tab sync options in the menu, it says "determination of status of account...". "but after waiting a long time, nothing happens.

  This problem has affected all of my profiles. However everything I see is not affected: bookmarks/history/cookies not affected, unaffected, preferences not affected Add-ons.

  I tried to restart firefox, I tried to restart my PC, then I tried restarting firefox with disabled modules.

  I'm using Firefox 37.0.2 on a Windows 7 computer.

  I think that the problem has been resolved by uninstalling the add-on to remember the password. Curiously, for a profile 'disable all add-ons' was not enough to solve the problem, but it does not work in another profile. This brings me to try to uninstall this add-on, which didn't work.
