HT1766 I made a genius bar appt. I don't know how to do a back up as my problem is I dropped my iPad and smashed the glass. It is still in one piece. Is a backup in this case really needed?

Right clicking on your ipod in the device list an d choosing "transfer purchases" will copy apps and bought media from iTunes to your computer. Due to the new iTunes library on your new HD, iTunes will erase your ipod during the first sync. To save your data to the computer take a look at this article about saving data from your device to a computer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
Basically it's backing up manually, transferring her purchases (apps and bought music), letting iTunes erase the ipod due to the new iTunes library, and restoring from the manual backup again, to get all the data and settings back.
Make sure your new computer account is authorized in iTunes. Disable autosync in itunes, connect your ipod, right click on it in the device list and choose backup.
This will save data, pictures and settings to itunes. See what's included in this backup here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
Transfer your purchases the same way to copy all apps and bought media from the Store to your computer.
Set up at least one contact and event on your computer to be able the merge your calendars and contacts after your ipod got wiped during the first sync.
The rest of the data can be restored from the backup you made.
Restoring: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

Your's may look more like this...
...if you're running Mountain Lion. I'm in clamshell mode right now, so I don't have any mirroring options. AFAIK, there's no more "Show displays in menu bar" in Mountain Lion.

The address bar disappeared from all webpages and I don't know how to get it back. Can someone help me?

The address bar disappeared from all web pages and I can't type in a webpage. I don't know how to get it back. Can someone PLEASE help me get it back? Thanks!!!

Hi Jordyn. I'm assuming you're using Safari. Open it. On the top bar click on View > Customize Toolbar. You should see the address bar there and simply drag it where you want to place it in Safari. Hope this helps.

When I open a pdf file, after a few seconds, it hides the toolbar and I don't know how to get it back. I use multiple monitors and, without being able to grab the toolbar, I am unable to move the pdf file to a different monitor. How do I stop this?

Does Firefox switch to full screen if you press F11 ?
You can also try the F10 key to see if that brings up the menu bar.

I have completely lost all toolbars, menu bars, command bars and don't know how to get them back. What do I do?

I have the Mozilla Firefox bar across the top of the computer screen and then the tabs for the windows I am in...that's it. I need help getting the bar with file, view, edit, etc. back again.

Please see here: [[Menu bar is missing]].

So last night I went to a really important event and I took many pictures. This morning I had an update for the iPhone so I did it. Then afterwards I lost all those new photos. I haven't backed up my phone so I don't know how to get them back. HELP!!!!!!!

I really need these photos. I updated my phone and I had to put all of my apps back on there. But what I really care about are these photos. I need them....PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!

Well, if you have not backed them up, they are gone.
Next time, when you have important material in only one place, back it up.

All my menu bars, status bars, address box, links etc. have disappeared, and I don't know how to get them back!

Everything was OK earlier, but when I started Firefox again, the only thing that shows is the tab! I can't search, there are no menus, I can't enter a URL, I can do nothing! I had to (shudder) use IE to enter this question!
Help!

Can someone tell me how to access my iphone again?
Last night I changed the passlock code and when I put the new one it did not recognized it. Now I am locked out of my iphone.

You will need to try to restore your iDevice from the same computer that you most recently synced to.
Read this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
If you can't do the restore then you will need to try Recovery Mode.

Hi i've lost the main top bar of Firefox so i cannot go to File, Edit, Bookmarks etc ... i don't know how to get it back .. plz can u help ?

I can't go to file, edit, bookmarks as that toolbar is no longer there at the top. The first one i have now is the back and forward, refresh buttons and the home etc ... plzzz can anybody help me to get the main top settings back ???

For details of how to restore it, see the [[menu bar is missing]] article.

Trying to update but after saving the file it doesn't happen. Suggestions made is to install but I don't know how or see anything re installing?

I am advised that my latest update has not been installed. When I click on requesting installation a box appears asking if I want to save the file. I have answered yes and the file is saved. Despite this installation does not occur automatically and the directions state that if it doesn't I should "click here" which I do and the same box asking if I want to save the file continuously appears. I went into the general question area and see that I need to '''install''' it but I don't see anyway to do so.

Try '''manually check for updates''' read here for all ''must how'' information, it very easy:

thank you
Please mark "Solved" the answer that really solve the problem, to help others with a similar problem.

Just installed up-dated Firefox. I lost my FB and game tool-bar. Don't know how to get it back.

Fire-Fox just got updated today. I did not add on my Facebook and Game Tool-Bar. I need to re-install and don't want to mess things up.
Please help. Thanks!

Soup,
I am with Pierre here, in that I do not see, from your screen-cap, what is missing, or what has changed for you.
If the suggestion to Reset Workspace, or trashing your Prefs, does not fix things, please post another screen-cap, showing exactly what is missing, or what has changed.
Good luck,
Hunt
