Firefox 3... Dam.

Firefox 3... Dam.

I was using Firefox 2 and had all my history, bookmarks, etc saved.

Then came a message, "You want to update to Firefox 3" So i guessed why not.

I hope that it will be like previous updates and transfer everything over... but after the updates my bookmarks are gone

I have to find a way to restore them..

 

When I updated, all my bookmarks and plugins were not changed..

 

For me i keep all my data when i did the update

 

I updated many times, never loose any bookmark.

 

Try asking on FireFox Forums

 

Close all of your ff instances. (use file ~ exit)

click on start ~ run

type firefox -safe-mode

tick on the option of resetting toolbar.

ok.

 

Redownload FF2 from somewhere and your bookmarks should come back.

 

I don't like FF3 because it make me working less efficient.

 

in your document settings/user/application data/mozilla/firefox/profiles something there's a bookmarkbackup folder. try to see if it's still there

 

All my data was saved when I upgraded. You almost had to have uninstalled firefox2, and then installed firefox3 for that to happen. Good luck!

 

I don't like version 2 or 3! I'm still on version 1.5.0.10!

 

I don't use firefox that much so never bothered to upgrade it
Try using opera once and you won't even use firefox again...It even got online synchronization...you can keep a backup of your stuff online from where you can retrieve it whenever/wherever you want and yea, it's automated too(you just gotta enter the username and password once)

 

you've got to be kidding me

 

my bookmarks stayed...wonder what happened to yours.

Anyway they are probably still in a file somewhere on your computer, it's a matter of finding them and putting them into FF3.

Or do a system restore to a point yesterday to when FF2 was installed, get them back, save them somewhere and upgrade.

 

What I always do is backup my bookmarks before updating. Coz for me I consider my bookmarks GOLD ...

Have you check the firefox program folder, coz maybe the new one is installed in a different folder?

 

Well, looks like no one other than you had any problems with his FF. Try checking your PC for any problems or changes.
Anyway, thanks for posting this.... even i was thinking of updating it to FF3 , now i think i better stay quiet with the older version for sometime.

 

You would not have updated...

 

FF3 was definitely...Not my choice at all! It's suck and have so many bugs...!

 

i am use FF3 for Mac OS X Leopard, and its work superb...

but lot of my friends that use FF3 for Windows said that FF3 is bad bad bad and bad...

i don't know why, but i guess this version of FF fits only for Mac ?

 

Can't say I've had any problems with FF3. Well, only occasionally when I used the nightly releases while everyone else was on FF 2...
