I opened a sync account and followed the instructions to verify my account and manage it. But I can not find my bookmarks. I hit the sync button and I can not find none of my bookmarks.

Can you still see them on the other computer? Both computers need to be running the newer version of Firefox Sync.

Sorry, the steps you took left out how you transferred you own bookmarks to the new PC.

What was to source for your bookmarks?

No I only see the bookmarks from my new computer. It looks as if my new computer bookmarks has been sync instead of my old computer bookmarks. My hard drive has already been wiped clean, so I will have to look for a recover program to find the old bookmarks.

Thank You

So I have another problem now. I used Piriform Recuva to recover my deleted bookmark files from my old hard drive. It pulled up a list of file that look like this, Filename: 9E5B8m01 Path: C:\Users\HCIC\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\agi7k0xj.default\Cache\C\EC,

So how to I take these files, there are hundreds of them, and place them in my new bookmark section? Do I have to convert them to a json file or a html file?
