Windows XP crashed and Firefox 5.0 closed improperly. When I relaunched it, I mistakenly clicked New Session button instead of Restore previous session. How can I get that session back now? Thanks

I am on Windows XP/Firefox 5.0 Computer crashed overnight closing Firefox improperly. When I relaunched I got choice to restore previous session. By mistake I clicked on Start New Session. Now I cant restore that session through Menu, relevant buttons are greyed out. I cant see any pertinent information online either. I appreciate any help. Currently I am digging through the history but for some of these tabs I dont know when I opened them (may be a while ago).

I don't have a good sense of what is going wrong.
Was Firefox stable in step 3 -- open with no sessionstore.js file and then exit?
If that was stable, it might be easiest to cull the open URLs from your sessionstore.js file and re-open the most important ones manually. You will lose the ''detail'' of your session on those pages (e.g., data you had entered into a form), but if that's okay, it might be the next step.
I found a script on mozillaZine that will extract URLs from the sessionstore.js file; I just changed the formatting of the output. To run the script:
(1) Return to your profile folder and rename sessionstore.js to sessionstore.old again, then copy it to a convenient location
(2) Start Firefox (it should be in a new session)
(3) Open the following link, select all (Ctrl+a), copy (Ctrl+c) to copy the script to the clipboard: http://dev.jeffersonscher.com/sessionstore_reader.txt
(4) Open the <s>Error Console</s> Browser Console (Ctrl+Shift+j), click next to <s>Code</s> the caret (>>) and paste, then press Enter <s>or click Evaluate</s>
(5) A file selection window should appear. Navigate to the convenient location and open sessionstore.old from there.
(6) As long as the file is not corrupted, a new tab should open with a list of all the URLs the script found in the file. You can save this page for future reference if desired. Also, you can close the <s>Error</s> Browser Console now.

I have an old Ipod 5th gen that I have been using for downloading music from my library. Upon purchasing an Ipod touch and registering it in Itunes, I can no longer sync tunes to my old ipod. How can I get that option back on my old ipod?

- iTunes purchases by maybe
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
- For other music you need a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
newer copy
BTW, this is the iPod touch forum.

I accidently deleted a convo with a important video on it and its not backed up into itunes and i have ICloud turned off how can i get that video back?

I have deleted a conversation and it held a very important video, I need to get that back i didnt download it into my photo album and i didnt back it up into my itunes and my ICloud is turned off because i had a problems with it. How can i get that video back?

No way to recover it unless the other person didn't delete it on their end but the Perfect time to activate iCloud Drive and you won't ever need to worry. If you set it up correctly.

Loaded icloud and it erased everything from my calendar. How can I get that info back??

Once I loaded icloud into my iphone, it erased everything from my phones calendar and didn't forward any
of that information to my icloud online acct either.
I NEED that info back. How can I find it and get it back??
PLEASE HELP!!

I thought this happened when I first updated the software on my iPad. I didn't see any of the calendar events. Eventually they showed up tho. I am not sure exactly how long it took (or why the delay) but all the events were there when I checked again a couple of days later (may have been earlier but I didn't check). Maybe it's just the same thing?

My new version of Firefox crashes as soon as it opens, even in safe mode, at the 'restore session' page. How can I get that session back?

I updated to the newest version of Firefox and restarted the internet. When it reopened the browser, it had the 'about session restore' tab open, but when I clicked on it, it crashed. I've restarted the computer three times to no avail.
The browser opens, then says 'Not Responding' before you can click on anything, then crashes.
The Mozilla Crash Reporter appears, and I click to restart (or quit - same results) then it suggests to open in safe mode, which I do, but the same thing happens repeatedly and I get nowhere.
It wasn't even generating a crash report but finally one went through to my email: bp-0a80049a-6643-452d-b3b2-d8c622130823.
I want to restore my previous version, as I had tabs open that I need to go back to.
Could you please advise me how to proceed?
Thank you.

I have macbook pro. The pinch open and close is not working in firefox 4, but works in safari. How can I get that feature back

To find pinch open and close and how it works in macbook pro go to the apple icon. Open system preferences and the choose trackpad. Each item is illustrated.

You can restore the zoom feature by changing the values of the related prefs on the about:config page.
* browser.gesture.pinch.in -> cmd_fullZoomReduce
* browser.gesture.pinch.in.shift -> cmd_fullZoomReset
* browser.gesture.pinch.out -> cmd_fullZoomEnlarge
* browser.gesture.pinch.out.shift -> cmd_fullZoomReset
* browser.gesture.pinch.latched -> false

I have recently bought a new netbook. all my itunes songs are stored on an external drive, however when i downloaded itunes again for the new netbook, they no longer showed in itunes. how can i get my song and podcast library over to the new netbook?

can anyone help with this please? i feel its wrong to have to pay Apple £25 for something that should be more obvious and easier to do.

Go into the iTunes preferences and turn off the options that have you Copy Music To My Library.
Then, add the top folder which contains your music to iTunes - it will create links to your remote folder rather than copy all music to your netbook.
** Edit
You can set the location of your music here too.

I downloaded a movie last minute before vacation and the next day my kids somehow deleted the movie before I came home to hook it up to the computer. How can I get that movie back?

Everyone tells me if it is on my itunes account I can download it again. I just don't know how to do that.

That article only applies to previously purchased music, apps and books.
Currently iTunes does not allow for re-downloading movies. This may happen in the future with iCloud, but that remains to be seen.
Your best bet is going to be to contact iTunes via email here:

Usually takes about 24 hours for a response.

Thanks, this was the clue I needed to figure it out.
From Settings you can pull up Control Center.
In Control Center you can enable "Access from within Apps" (also "Access from Lockscreen")
Now when I'm playing music, I can swipe up from the bottom and a little control center window slides up. Neat - this is new since my old iPod. On this window, the name of the current Bluetooth connection appears. Tap on that, and a list of connected Bluetooth items appears. I just tap on the one I want to connect to and I am now playing through the speakers I want.

I made a project with multiple tracks and had it all panned and mixed. Now it's only playing in the right speaker. Not even regestering a left side in the master volume? What happened, how can I get both sides back?

Thank you for that info.
For video, the codec is MPEG-4 Video (XVID) and for audio it says MPEG Audio Layer 1/2/3 (mpga).
There are two issues with that file:
The first is the Xvid CODEC (not meant for editing), and then the MPEG Audio/MPGA. I would convert that file, to something that is more editable.
Good luck,

My battery died and then when i charged the phone it is asking me to connect to itunes and restore. if i restore how can i get my data back

My iphone battery died and on charging the phone it asked me to connect to itunes and restore the phone.
If i restore the phone how can i get my data back and how can i check when i last backed up my phone

If you have been syncing regularly as the iphone is designed, then you can sync the data back.
Regardless you will have to restore the iphone.

Hi,
I wanted to unlock my at&t iphone 3gs that i had for 3 years. i was told to back up the data on my phone and then restore it as new. now i don't have any data i had before it was restored. how can i get that data back onto my iphone 3gs? can i put that data on my ipad?

Is it an iTunes backup or an iCloud backup? If iTunes, connect the iPhone, right click on the name of the iPhone under the DEVICES section in iTunes. Click on Restore from Backup.
If iCloud, on the iPhone go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. When the device powers back on, you will see the original setup screens you saw when your iPhone was fresh out of the box. One of these screen asks you if you want to restore. Choose Restore from iCloud backup.

Media and apps are not part of the backup. They need to be re-synced from your itunes library or re-downloaded from the store.

Hi- apparently I also had a similar moment of madness and thought that 'freeride games' would be fun. Well, so much for that! It added a ton of things to my tool bar, I would like to uninstall it, any suggestions for this one?
thanks :)
