Firefox Problem

Can't access (read/write) your Bookmarks after updating the firefox
Its because you installed the firefox as the root and the user files permissions got changed to root, and you launched firefox without root permission and cant access those files

Now to access your bookmarks you need to change the permission

Goto->Terminal->type sudo nautilus
nautilus is a filemanager
Now navigate to your home
Press ctrl+h
Now navigate to .mozilla->firefox->xxxxxxxx.default now change the permission of the file places.sqlite-journal
NB: if u have any problem with cookies, change the permission of the file cookies.sqlite.journal
