Q: How to restore lost Firefox bookmarks?
I did something that was supposed to speed up Firefox but in the process I lost all of my bookmarks.I have a Time Machine backup that has the older Firefox. How can I access that to just restore Firefox to its previous state? Thanks.
iMac, OS X El Capitan (10.11.5), 8 GB 1867 MHz DDR3

Open Firefox, click Help>Troubleshooting information, and when that opens, click Profile Folder>Show in Finder. When that folder opens, you can Enter Time Machine, go back to before you lost all your bookmarks and restore the contents of your Profile Folder which is where your bookmarks are stored.
