Hi,

Just recently I migrated to Firefox 68.2.0esr from FF 60.9.0esr by automatic update after ack manually. OS is Mac OS X / mac OS Sierra 10.12.6 and managed network user account.

Unfortunately, most of the bookmarks were lost or destroyed. The majority of bookmarks seems to be lost, some entries remain with label only and URL empty, some longer list of bookmarks in some folders remain.

Any advice? Any observations similar?

Did you make sure you have the latest SQLite version installed in your Mac OS in case Firefox on Mac still uses native SQLite ?

Do you see a places.sqlite.corrupt file or other .corrupt files in the profile folder?

You can use the button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page.
