A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Thanks very much. I finally was able to solve the problem by following the instructions I found in Firefox help. I had tried this earlier (hence my question) and I'm not sure what I did wrong, but it finally did work.
