A system recovery was performed on my pc. When I re-installed firefox all my bookmarks had disappeared. This happened more than a wk ago so the solution of recovery for 5 days didn't work. Is there any way to recover them from more than 7 days ago?

On Jun 19 my pc wouldn't load Windows & HP decided to do a system recovery on my pc on Jun 20.
Prior to the system recovery being performed all of my files & programs were burned onto discs.
A few days after the recovery was performed I re-installed Firefox. It was the same day that the newest version of Firefox was released. I was unable to reload the version I was previously using (I believe that it was version 4).
After re-installing Firefox I discovered that I lost all of my Firefox bookmarks.
I thought that the bookmarks would be on the back-up discs but I can't find them on the system recovery files that I loaded onto my pc.
I am using Windows 7 Home Premium. I have a HP G60 series laptop.

Thanks for the info.
I did find the folder as described above. Under Profiles the sub-directory I found was: t6jyvmtf.default
There are 2 files in that sub-directory:
blocklist - which is an XML document &
bookmarks - which is Firefox document
When I selected bookmarks the document that opened does not contain (to my knowledge) the bookmarks.
The heading for the page is '''''Bookmarks''''' & right underneath that heading is '''Get Bookmark Add-ons'''
Underneath that is a heading '''Bookmarks Toolbar Folder''' with the following under it:
Add bookmarks to this folder to see them displayed on the Bookmarks Toolbar, Getting Started & Latest Headlines
That is followed by the heading '''Mozilla Firefox''' which has the following underneath it:
Help and Tutorials, Customize Firefox, Get Involved & About Us
I checked each of the items that could be selected but none of them had my bookmarks.
I also checked the blocklist XML document - it opened Windows Internet Explorer with what appears to be programming language (although I could be wrong). At the top of the document it says - ?xml version="1.0" ?
followed by
- <blocklist xmlns="http://www.mozilla.org/2006/addons-blocklist">
Should I be selecting one of the above to find the bookmarks & I'm just not seeing it?

Your music will only be where you put it.
Did you copy all of your music from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one?

Yes, connect to your computer with the latest version of iTunes installed and restore it. If it doesn't show up in iTunes when you connect it see: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

You could try using 'metarecover'. I don't know if that works after a metaclear, but it's the only think that I could think to try.
I think you could brute-force search for UFS filesystems within the underlying storage, but that's pretty tedious.

My daughter deleted her movies that we had purchased from her iPad2. Is there any way to recover them??

We had purchased movies on iTunes and she came up to me asking where they went.. After a while she finally confessed that she had pressed the "x" on the top corner of the movie not know what it would do. Is there any way to get them back without having to pay for them again??

Was the iPad synched to a computer since those movies were purchased? If so, the movies should be in iTunes on the computer and can just be synched back.
If the iPad hasn't been synched, then sorry but you'll probably need to purchase the movies again since the movie studios have not allowed Apple to provide free redownloading. You can contact the iTunes Store and plead for an exception:

but there are no guarantees.

I synced my sisters phone with my itunes and now all her contacts have disappeared and been replaced with mine and also photos... she has never done a back-up is there any way we can get all her contacts and pictures back?

Look under iTunes>Preferences>Devices...is there a backup listed for her phone? First thing done when you sync is an iPhone backup. If you have not synced since screwing her phone up, restoring from that backup(if it exists) should restore her content. Do not sync after you restore her phone, eject it. So, first disable auto-sync on that same device pane in iTunes before you proceed. If this doesn't work, is your sister bigger than you? If so, run 'cause her data is gone .

Having been without my Mac for a month I've been using iCloud mail. The new mail boxes that I set up there do not automatically show up in Mail on my replacement Mac. Is there any way to transfer them from ICloud mail to Mail?

then import pics to computer

you may need to save pics to camera roll first
then restore the new backup and sync pics back to phone via itunes

Restore your backup copy, this is what it is for.

HT4910 i accidently deleted a note from my iphone 5 is there any way to recover it from an icloud backup?

I accidently deleted a note from my iphone 5 is there any way to recover it from icloud?

You have to start by erasing the phone so if there's any newer data on it that is not contained in your last backup, you'll need to save that first. Then go to Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings, go through the setup screens on the phone and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup. Then sign into your iCloud account and choose your backup to restore from.
Be sure you phone is connected to wifi and your charger as this may take a while to finish.

Iphoto erased all my pictures from my macbook air. I have no back up, is there any way to recover them? Now it is clear why Maverick is free...

iphoto erased pictures from my macbook air. I have no back-up. Any way to recover them?

A few things to check:
Do you have more than one user account? If so, are you signed in to the correct account?
Are there multiple iPhoto Libraries? (Hold down the option key, while opening iPhoto) Also, check the Trash, I've heard of iPhoto libraries ending up there for some reason.
If you are certain the library you are looking at is the correct one, try the iPhoto Library First Aid options by, quitting iPhoto (if it is open), then, holding down the command and option keys, launch iPhoto. Choose the option to Repair Permissions and click Repair. If that doesn't work, repeat the steps and choose Repair Database. And lastly, if the first two do not solve the problem, try Rebuild Database. *It is very important that you have a backup prior to performing any of the troubleshooting steps.*

I had to reinstall windows on my laptop because it wouldn't start. Then I lost all the bookmarks saved on the browser Firefox. Is there a way to recover them from my IP address or any another way? Thanks

My laptop refused to start, then i had to reinstall windows.
I choose Windows 7 instead of Windows Vista.
After reinstalling Firefox, i saw that i lost all the (so vital) bookmarks !
Is there a way to recover them ?
Thank you.

I had the same problem...well... I'm still not over it yet .. :))
I'm afraid there is no way to recover your data from a formatted drive..
A lifetime of bookmarks, gone
P.S. Be strong =)))
Stay cool

All my downloads have vanished - is there any way to recover them?

Today, I started downloading a file, and opened the Downloads window to check on speed. As I watched (and without clicking on anything after pulling the list up on the screen) the entire download history vanished, apart from the currently downloading file. Is there any way to get it back? I've tried searching for a deleted version of the places.sqlite file, but it seems it simply updated the existing file in deleting my data, and so there is no old version for me to use to recover my downloads. Note that my history is intact, with no problem there at all. But the download list is stubbornly empty. I've tried restarting the browser, but even that had no effect.
I know about database expiration, and pruning away old data, but I lost literally everything, even things I downloaded ten minutes earlier.
I am guessing that the download history is gone for good now, but I have to say it's not reasonable for a browser to act so destructively to user data without a specific user request, and without a way of recovering from the browser's failure.
Why not automatically backup these important sqlite files in the same way as bookmarks etc are backed up? Very poor indeed.

Are they removed from the Downloads folder in the Library?
Also note the the downloads are treated differently when you are in private browsing mode and are only shown temporarily on the about:downloads page (this page works in both modes).
Downloads would normally not be removed unless you would clear the downloads via the right-click context menu or otherwise clear (recent) history.

While trying to back up my contacts to icloud, I lost them all. Is there any way to recover them?

Phone: iPhone 4
iOS: 6.1
Previous backups: None
I was syncing my contacts to iCloud (went to Settings > iCloud and turned Contacts to "On"), but after the first 3 contacts, it stopped syncing.
I went to Settings > iCloud and turned Contacts to "Off". I was given 2 options: "Keep contacts on iPhone" or "Delete contacts from iPhone".
I selected "Keep contacts". Now all other contacts except those first 3 have been deleted from my phone.
I have no other backups of my iPhone. Is there any way for me to recover the lost contacts?

All media and apps on the device should already be in iTunes on the computer.
If you have forgotten the restrictions passcode, the ONLY option is to restore as new.
Then sync back any media, apps, contacts, etc back to the device.
You can not restore from backup as the restrictions passcode is included in the backup.
