For the last couple of days, every time I reboot my computer, I lose all bookmarks in Firefox.

Yesterday when I opened Firefox and clicked on my Bookmarks, the drop down was empty. All of my previously saved bookmarks were gone. I tried several suggestions from the troubleshooting guide, but none helped. So, I began bookmarking sites again. This morning when I opened Firefox, the bookmarks I saved yesterday were now missing! Help!!!

Problem solved!

I had been trying the suggestions in 'Lost Bookmarks'. I followed the 'Bookmarks not saved' suggestion of deleting the places.sqlite file, then restored the bookmarks from an earlier saved file. I then exited Firefox and rebooted my computer to make sure the bookmarks were still there.

Thanks!
