I've got a new computer. My hold hard drives are installed and have Firefox on them. But I can't seem to find the old bookmarks. Any help?

"Application Data" in XP/Win2K and "AppData" in Vista/Windows 7 are hidden folders See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Show_hidden_files_and_folders

Go to: Control Panel > Folder Options > "View" tab > under "Hidden files and folders", select "Show hidden files and folders" You may want to un-check the box "Hide extensions for known file types" to see the file extensions of all files
