I have I have been refreshing to Firefox and lost all my favorites!
I went through the troubleshooting and monitoring instructions and my favorites are gone. read a few articles about the recovery, but was a bit hesitant to follow through when he said that I had 14 files, when I know I have a lot more.
Find the folder of old data of Firefox on the desktop. Make a copy of it, just in case you get stuck or need to start. But scrupulously every step:

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?

I am lost without my favorites - can they be restored?
See the following article:
-
Has given the green light to upgrade Firefox to the latest version, to realize that all stored passwords were no longer available.
Can I restore these passwords?Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.
- Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
- Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe
- https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/safe+mode
- https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
You need a (backup) copy of the files logins.json and key3db to retrieve the passwords if you current copies are lost or corrupted.
- Tools > Options > Security: passwords: "saved passwords" > "show passwords".

As soon as I opened the Firefox Start Page, all my favorites have been posted on the left side. I accidentally hit something, and now all my favorites have disappeared.
For your safety, you must do a lot of software updates. You may be holding back for some reason any. Let us know what it is because there may be a fix or workaround now.
To update to the 19 of Firefox, you can use the "Check for updates" button here:
Menu help > about Firefox
To update your Adobe PDF and Shockwave Flash plugins and check for other obsolete plugins, you can use this page:
https://www.Mozilla.org/en-us/pluginCheck/
I know it's tedious, but don't let slip too long or you might get up to have to rebuild everything (the curse of your lack of backups, and if you do regular backups).

My computer crashed (blue screen) and when it restarted a box came asking me to update Firefox. I clicked on OK (thought he was just trying to restore the session) and I have now lost all my favorites, passwords registered etc. There is no 'old Firefox data' folder anywhere on my system - help! is there a way I can get it all back without doing a system restore? I am running Windows 7.
Hi, you can try it for only bookmarks: first open the bookmarks > show all bookmarks > import and backup > restore and see if you have a backup there.
If not and the other favorites, please see.
If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.

Hi, I have just reset my Firefox and he lost ALL the TABS at the top. Bookmarks, history, leadership, Edit and Options tabs are GONE. I don't know that I named all right, but they ARE GONE. Please tell me how to get back them. Thanks, Chris

The toolbars are still on display in your browser?
If you still have the address bar, right click on any part that is not a text box or the icon, or if you do not like that of any space right click on the three horizontal lines on the right side of the address bar window. This should show some options, click on 'Menu Bar' and the tabs you are missing should appear.
As a side note, usually if these options are missing, your icon of firefox in the upper left corner of the window should look different (being a rectangular button itself as opposed to an icon), and the 'file', 'Edition', 'Bookmarks', etc., are found after clicking on this button.
Hope that helps.

I uninstalled aurora and now all my favorites and passwords are left of firefox 4, how can I recover my bookmarks and passwords?
Sorry you have coming.
See the attached screenshot. If you selected the option to remove my Aurora (nightly minefield, Firefox) the personal data and customizations you deleted all your profiles for each version you have / had installed. You can try to use a program for recovering files, like Recuva, to see what can be salvaged.
The bookmarks to the file places.sqlite , or among the backup of bookmarks Favorites-aaaa-mm-jj.json files (10 are stored). Regarding your passwords, you need the file signons.sqlite and signons3.txt file.
