Upon turning on my computer, Firefox was Yahoo optimized w/o asking me, and I lost all my tabs....How do I get them back?

I am furious....I dont want to optimize my browser for Yahoo.....and when I started my computer this morning, it started in Firefox without asking me, without my Walnut add on, and no tabs, of which I had many.....now I have the walnut add on, but am missing all my many tabs that I used every day....is there a place where they are stored? Why did this happen? Who said it was alright for Yahoo to step in and optimize for themselves? I dont want Yahoo search, I want Google search...

I think I found your backup ...
from Apple Support:
iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: If you do not see the AppData or Application Data folders, you may need to show hidden files (Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7), or iTunes may not be installed in the default location. Show hidden files and then search the hard drive for the Backup directory.

Hi All,
I did the last update, there was a 'catastrophic failure' i had to restore my iPhone and now have lost all my apps, how do i get them back? Any ideas?
Thanks
Clare

All of your apps should be in iTunes on the computer, simply sync them back.
If they are not, go into the purchase history and download them again.

My computer had to be restored at the apple store. When they did it my Microsoft word, powerpoint, and excel were all deleted! How can I get them back? Who do I talk to, Apple or Microsoft?

you are responsible for reinstalling any apps. It is not Apples responsibility as outline the the service agreement. Do you have the product key?

I just downloaded Firefox and it replaced Mozilla completely and I lost all my bookmarks. Anyway to get them back??? I wouldn't have upgraded if I knew this would happen.....

I upgraded from the old Mozilla browser to Firefox and all my bookmarks disappeared. Now what do I do? Also does Firefox have an email system? I'm using Mozilla but don't want to lose all my emails.....thanks

Do you mean you were using Mozilla Seamonkey - or something even older - sometimes called 'The Mozilla Suite'?
If it was SeaMonkey (or the old Suite) then the bookmarks may still be in your SeaMonkey profile:

Firefox does not include an email client. You could use Mozilla Thunderbird

From backups you made to iCloud and/or iTunes, and items you synced from iTunes originally.

Hello. I just got the iPhone 5s today and I did a restore from icloud to it but none of my apps transferred. I checked on my computer and only Facebook and candy crush show up. How can I get them back?

Try restoring the backup again. Your apps and other purchased media should have been restored from your backup if they were on your old phone when you backed it up.

HT203167 My computer crashed and I lost all downloads. How do I recover them?

My computer ceased functioning. When I had it repaired and reinstalled iTunes, most of my music was gone as well as the movie Forks Over Knives that I just purchased. How do I recover them?

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup, not good, then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

After downloading iOS 6 on my new I phone 5 both the FaceTime and iMessage app icons have disappeared yet if you go into settings they are both still turned on, I have searched my full device to find these apps and nothing has showed up. How do I get them

Basically I have downloaded iOS 6 on my new iPhone and both the FaceTime and iMessage app appeared to have been wiped from the phone but if you look on settings it says they are both turned on. how do I get these features back on my phone?

They could be on another page on your iPhone, try doing a search for the apps. If you still don't see them restart your iPhone by holding down the on/off and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo. If you are still having problems try to reset your home screen.

The new Firefox has removed my Yahoo mail and other settings. Why? How do I get them back? It gives me a screen that says go "here" but nothing happens.

Before the latest update, I used Firefox almost exclusively. Now that the new version has removed, or hidden, my entire Yahoo settings and pages, I can't use Firefox at all.

hello, how to restart firefox into safemode is described in the link i've provided in my prior answer.
other users also had problems with yahoo mail when they were using the ghostery addon - do you have it installed too by any chance? if so, add an exception for yahoo mail: click on the ghostery icon while you're in yahoo's webmail, choose "edit blocking options" & then don't block on this domain...

I updated to Firefox 3.6.13 and now have no Web page previews/thumbnails when I open a new tab - how do I get them back?

Whenever I opened a new tab with older versions of Firefox 3.6.n, I would see thumbnails of some of the pages I'd visited before. I love this feature, but I do not know how to restore it after downloading and installing FF 3.6.13. What do I need to do to get this feature back? Is there a possible conflict with another add-on or toolbar? I have these toolbars: Google, The Free Dictionary, and Amazon.com. (The plug-ins you can see below.) Incidentally, the Firefox version displayed in the "educated guesses" section is not correct: it shows 3.0.11 and using the Help menu and choosing About Mozilla Firefox, it displays 3.6.13.

Google Toolbar Options, in the Search tab, make sure that '''Enable the Google new tab page''' is check-marked. If that doesn't fix it for you, see this for support information about the Google Toolbar. 
[http://www.google.com/support/toolbar/?hl=en] 
Or visit the Google Toolbar forum.

As far as your UserAgent showing Firefox 3.0.11, see this: 
https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Websites+or+add-ons+incorrectly+report+incompatible+browser
You might want to consider getting rid of that '''desktopsmiley''' program that has messed up your UserAgent, it is known as Malware.

My firefox had customized buttons on the top. when I upgraded they were gone. How do I get them back?

I had buttons for foxnews, driving directions, gmail, etc.
Also, my firefox opened to gmail before upgrading.

Check that the Bookmarks Toolbar is visible and that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is still placed on the Bookmarks Toolbar. 
If the menu bar is hidden then press F10 or hold down the Alt key, that should make the "Menu Bar" appear.
Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
* Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout" and check that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
* If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the toolbar palette in the customize window to the Bookmarks Toolbar
* If you do not see the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" or other items that are missing in the toolbar palette or on a toolbar then click the "Restore Default Set" button

Firefox extention to work with iphone icloud wiped my contacts list, how do I get them back?

I plugged my iphone into my computer to upload some images. This automatically started Itunes. Itunes wanted to back up to icloud. I initiated the icloud thing and it prompted me to install a firefox extention for compatability. Now my contacts in outlook (2010) are gone. How do I get them back?

hello Rocksterr, you'd probably have to put this question to apple or whoever is developing this third-party addon as firefox itself won't in any way interfere with your outlook contacts.

I had to restart my computer and redownload the I Tunes program, Now none of my music is n my library. How can I get them back?

I had to completely reset my computer and re -download the I tunes program. Now none of the music I had before is in my playlist. Where did it all go? How can I get them back?

You can redownload the stuff you bought from the iTunes Store using the Purchased link on the right side of the homepage.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
You can also Transfer Purchases from your iPhone, but you'll have re-import the stuff off that wasn't bought through iTunes because of copyright laws (or search Google for another app).
