your fix for finding my missing bookmarks requires the use of the tools drop down. I do not have the tools drop down to find the missing file

Firefox 3.6+ versions have a feature to allow the user to hide the Menu bar.

Hit the Alt key to temporarily show the Menu bar, then open View > Toolbars and select Menu bar, so it has a check-mark.
The F10 can also be used on most PC's to temporarily reveal the Menu bar.

Which fix are you referring to?
Are you searching for the Firefox Profile Folder ?

Missing bookmarks can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
