After computer crash, ALL Firefox bookmarks gone. Help!
 
After my computer locked up and I had to re-start it with the power switch, ALL of my Firefox bookmarks are gone! There is nothing under the bookmarks tab.

Are they somewhere still? Please, I hope?

Firefox 1.5.0.1

Thanks!

And I love you :)

But the process described there didn't work.

For some reason I have two "profiles" sub-folders. Some of the prior bookmarks are in one of the profiles, and none are in the other.

I wish I'd never "up"graded to 1.5 :(

Thanks. I did that. But a bunch of the newer ones are now gone forever apparently.

No problem. I'll email you that profile of "Teens in Lederhosen" links again, and you should be back in business!

You are such a dear.

I had this problem a few years ago, so I no longer use bookmarks at all, HOWEVER I do maintain my Bookmark Page so that wherever I am, I can access what I need.

Most browsers let you export your favourites/bookmarks into a HTML file so it's just a case of uploading it.

Easier to just use http://del.icio.us and the Firefox plugin :D
