OK, it looks like I have to go all the way back to the 4/30 backup to get everything restored. The next one after that is 5/10 and it has A LOT of bookmarks blanked out - more than I thought!
Not sure why there's nothing between those two dates...I'm guessing we didn't have any changes for two weeks?
There are bookmarks at work (on the "work" profile) that are not on the 4/30 set (before profiles were in use) that have changed since then.
When I restore the bookmarks, will the ones for only one profile (i.e., "home") be reset or will the bookmarks be reset for all profiles? Is there a way to selectively choose what will be restored, or somehow prevent the current bookmarks at work from being overwritten when I do the restore? Or will the normal merging happen where the newer bookmarks will overwrite the older?
Also, do I need to rename the places file on all computers, or just the one that's causing the problems?

I just checked the links @ the my.xmarks.com site and all of the "blanked" bookmarks have the same link:
https://my.xmarks.com/?mode=profiles#
Where is the original link?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
If xMarks is out of "beta" then why is it deleting links?

Here's an update...I upgraded to Xmarks on my laptop and all of the bookmarks synced perfectly. I then assigned it to the "Home" profile and *POOF* there go my bookmarks - but ONLY on my bookmark toolbar - and ONLY the bookmarks that are in folders on my bookmark toolbar.
I then reverted to *no* profile to try and get my bookmarks back, but no luck.
I need my bookmarks back NOW!!!! I do not have these particular bookmarks ANYWHERE ELSE.
When is the Xmarks staff going to answer this question? I posted the original problem TWO WEEKS ago, and didn't even get a complimentary reply.

Profile sync not working correctlyI've used FoxMarks for awhile, so I'm not new to this by any means. I upgraded my FoxMarks to Xmarks at home without a hitch. I switched everything to the "Home" profile. I then installed it at work (Mac OSX), and suddenly everything appeared on my work computer. I switched to the "Work" profile and edited items I didn't want to have at work.
Here's the problem...It deleted (rather "blanked") the bookmarks for random entries! It seems to be linked with the multiple profiles, but that's all I can figure out. The bookmark entry is there, but there's no data or URL. I can't delete it or change those that got "blanked" and some of those I don't know if I can get back!
Oh, and then I created a new bookmark at home ("Home" profile) last night, and it appeared on my work computer ("Work" profile) this morning.

Reply/DM notifierIs there a way y'all can add some time of notifier (color, bold, etc) so that we know when there is a @reply or DM?

I'm getting the "Enter your PIN" box CONSTANTLY after I upgraded from 2.6.1 to 3.5.3 on our main computer. I have uninstalled/reinstalled. The bookmark sync works fine. Firewall is not running and I'm using the correct PIN.
There is no error code/number/description...the box just keeps popping up. If I hit "Cancel" the Foxmarks Status box just stays there. At one point, it shot my CPU to 99%!
I am **not** using a Master PW in Firefox.
This is getting extremely frustrating!
