I have an active Sync function, that normally makes sure, that my bookmarks are syncronized, but now all bookmarks have disappeared, and I need help figuring out, how to restore them. I have not exported/saved bookmark-exports, because I didn't think, that this was nesecary. How can I restore the bookmarks?

How old was that "older version of Firefox"? Before Firefox 29.0?

Are you still logged into Sync? Check the 3-bar "Open menu" button and in the Menu Panel that appears does it show the Sync username / email address or say "Sign in to Sync".

Whatever you do don't request a new Password for Sync / Firefox Accounts; that will completely clear your data from the Sync server.

Hi! I have an installation of version 3.6.19; I am using the tool called NaviCrawler, and in order to make it work, my professor told me, that I had to have an older version of firefox installed, and so I followed his and other people's advise and installed a firefox version, that would make NaviCrawler work. Probably stupid.

I am still logged into Sync, and it is showing my e-mailadress. And the box called 'bookmark' is checked (and has been all the time, I have not changed anything in those settings).
