mac os x firefox bookmarks favicons disappear

[RobertJ]

My last shot. Try creating a new temporary profile. Then with FF not running copy the places.sqlite file from the old profile to the new temporary one and see what happens.

that doesnt solve either.

With FF not running remove the places.sqlite file from the new profile. Restart FF, you will have no bookmarks. Go to a site you previously had bookmarked and bookmark it. Does the favicon appear in the bookmark?

[favicondisappear]

sorry for the late post, nope that doesnt help.

[RobertJ]

OK. With FF not running toss this file

/Users/<user_acct>/Library/Preferences/org.mozilla.firefox.plist

and this directory

/Users/<user_acct>/Library/Caches/Firefox/Profiles/<random>.default

See what happens.

Toss = put in trash

Sorry for my assumption about your English. It's much better than my Turkish; which, is zero.

i ve deleted those files but still the same.

[RobertJ]

Use the Disk Utility.app and under the First Aid tab run Repair Disk Permissions.

[favicondisappear]

repair disk permissions complete but nothing changed, any other idea?

Great. But it should have worked without that. I guess it will just be a mystery; although, I somehow suspect xmarks.

Have a good evening.
