Hi grannyrosey,

You need to copy/overwrite the places.sqlite from the backup into the newly installed Firefox profile after exiting Firefox. You can open the Firefox profile folder via Firefox Help (Alt + H) > Troubleshooting Information > Show Folder, and exit Firefox before overwriting.

You could also contact Carbonite support - they seem to have remote support - and point them to this resource.
