I was nagged to update to the latest version yesterday. Despite having problems in the past when I updated, I went ahead. After updating, I opened Firefox to find all of my bookmarks gone. I've tried restoring from Backup. Every single JSON I try to backup from throws the error that it is "Unable to process backup file." I've tried running Places Maintenance, but get nothing but a "Fetching..." message forever. I ran the latest bookmark file through a JSON validator and got 116 errors. I rolled back to an older version of Firefox, but still get the error. Any suggestions? I mean, other than stop using Firefox, since updates to Chrome and IE don't cause everything to disappear every time I update.

You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database (bookmarks, history) in the Firefox profile folder.

See also:

If the Places Maintenance extension can't repair the places.sqlite database then remove all places.sqlite file(s) in the Firefox profile folder to make Firefox rebuild the places.sqlite database from the most recent JSON backup in the bookmarkbackups folder.
