Hi, All of my collection of bookmarks were lost. I have attempted to restore them a number of ways. Apple support was unable to help. Is there some reason that the Firefox bookmarks cannot be restored using Apple's backup Time Machine? If there is a way to use Time Machine please detail the specifics. If not, then any other way to restore would be appreciated. Thank you, Marc

Let's try this; Restore Bookmark Backups

To open the Bookmarks Manager, press the Alt or F10 key bring up the tool bar, and select Bookmarks. Hot key is <Control>(Mac=<Command>) <Shift> B.

Once the window is open, at the top of the page, press the button labeled Import and Backup. Select Restore. From the list, pick the file you want and click it.
