Hey fam, today I noticed a s*** ton of my bookmarks have been deleted off Firefox when I booted up my Mac today.

S***’s never happened before & idk what to do.

Are there any solutions?

do u have a firefox acct ?

No :/

Idk how this happened.

Everything was fine last night, now everything is missing.

did you have those bookmarks on multiple devices?

support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/restore-bookmarks-from-backup-or-move-them

Only on my Macbook.

I'm floored by this.

I tried restoring them from an earlier date, but they are still missing.

hmmmm maybe try looking for your bookmarks.html file in documents and see if they're in there?

File isn't there...

Thanks for trying to help, I appreciate it.

Just gonna have to live with it I guess

no worries, sucks but you'll live.

try this:

go to your Finder and click Command + Shift + L

this should open a folder called Library correct ?

Yes

brave wins again

okay go to Application Support > Firefox and tell me what u see

3 folders

Crash reports, Pending Pings, & profiles.

yes go into profiles and tell me what u see

I see 3 different folders.

I checked all 3 & went into the "Bookmarkbackup" folders for all three & my latest backup's are from 2020 :/

Which is strange cause I thought I had automatic backups turned on.

thats very strange

are u able to restore from those at least ?

Yes, but a whole years worth of them are still missing.

It sucks, but I think I can live with it.

Just don't understand how they can get deleted like that over night.

Thank you for your help though!

I really appreciate it!
