Sorry, merely updating Firefox shouldn't have resulted in data being lost from an individual device. Data should stay on the PC thru the update process and Sync really shouldn't enter the picture.

Did you uninstall Firefox and then reinstall it? .Rather then doing an "update"? If so, did you use the uninstaller option to "remove all data and customizations"?

Any chance that you using the Master Password feature with the older version of Sync? If so, the new version of Sync doesn't synchronize bookmarks on devices where the Master Password is being used. But the bookmarks that where on that device previously wouldn't be affected - they should still be on that device and should work properly. That would only affect data being sent to or from the Sync server.
