My daughter deleted my bookmarks and history. Can I get them back? I have Firefox 3.0 and a Mac.

On July 1, 2010 on about 4:30 pm, my browsing and history files were erased by a member of my family. I had very important information and messages that were saved from February of 2010 up until June. Is there any way of retrieving my history back? I have gone to Firefox and done everything but it doesn't seem to be working. I have Firefox 3.6 installed and my computer is a MAC. Please any kind of help would be very helpful. Thank you.

Hello Sandra.

You're using 3.6, actually.

Anyway, you can get your bookmarks back. See this article.

As for the browsing history, I don't believe it's possible to recover it.

Unless something different happened. If that's the case, my above help won't help you. Please tell me so we can work from there. If it does help, that's as far as I can help, I'm sorry.
