I can see only the default set of bookmarks in the Bookmarks folder
Your bookmarks are associated with the Firefox profile you are using. There may be instances when you or Firefox creates a new profile containing the default set of bookmarks (for example, if you make a separate installation of Firefox or when you downgrade Firefox). A new profile may give you the impression that you have lost your bookmarks.
Determine if Firefox has created a new profile
To see if another profile exists, type about:profiles into the Firefox address bar and press the EnterReturn key. This will open the About Profiles page, which will list at least one profile and could list many. The profile that Firefox is currently using will show: This is the profile in use and it cannot be deleted. If you have another profile listed, you can launch that profile in a new Firefox browser window to see if it contains your lost bookmarks. See Recover user data missing after Firefox update for more information.
Firefox creates a new profile each time it starts
A new profile is automatically created for each separate installation of Firefox (see Dedicated profiles per Firefox installation for details). If you are running Firefox directly from the disk image (Firefox .dmg) file you downloaded, it may be detected as a new installation each time you start Firefox. Do not run Firefox directly from the .dmg file; move it to the folder instead. See How to download and install Firefox on Mac for instructions.
My Bookmarks Toolbar is missing

, then click and select

My bookmarks have disappeared

- Click the menu button to open the menu panel.
Click and then click the bar at the bottom.
- In the Library window, click the button and then select .
- Select the backup you want to restore from the list of dated automatic backups.
- You can also select to restore bookmarks from a manual backup, if you created one.
- After confirming your choice, the bookmarks from the backup you selected will be restored.
For more information, see Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer.
There is an "Old Firefox Data" folder on my desktop
In some cases, Firefox may create a folder on your desktop called "Old Firefox Data". This folder contains a complete backup of your Firefox profile and can be used to restore bookmarks and other missing information. If you have this folder on your desktop, see Recover important data from an old profile.
No bookmarks are visible after installing an add-on
If you have restarted Firefox after installing an add-on and your bookmarks are gone, it's possible that Firefox did not close properly before restarting itself. To recover your bookmarks, restart your computer.
I can't find my bookmarks after importing them
If you imported your bookmarks from another browser, you can find them inside a specially-named folder, for example, From Google Chrome or From Microsoft Edge depending on the browser, in one of these locations:
- At the end of the Firefox Bookmarks Toolbar.
- At the bottom of the Bookmarks list accessible from the Bookmarks Menu toolbar button.
- In the Bookmarks Library. To open the Bookmarks Library window: Click the menu button to open the menu panel.
Click and then click the bar at the bottom.
If your source bookmarks were stored in a hierarchy of folders, the folder structure is preserved inside the specially-named folder. If desired, you can move your imported bookmarks to other folders. See Bookmarks in Firefox to learn more about organizing your bookmarks.
