Are there alternative locations I can find my Firefox profile (in Time Machine)?
I recently erased my harddrive and re-installed Mac OS X Lion, however I forgot to save a copy of my Firefox bookmarks. I do have backups of my system on Time Machine though and was told by Apple Suport I would just need to locate the Firefox folder where bookmarks are stored to restore this file from Time Machine. I cannot seem to find my Firefox profile folder in ~/Library/Application Support, though. Is there another location I can look?

This will bring you to the location of the current Firefox profile, so you can use that to do a search.
