After desktop crashed, how can I synch Firefox on my new one

I had Firefox synch on my desktop and 2 androids. The desktop crashed and had to be reformatted. How can I download my synch to Firefox on a new drive? I can log onto synch but can't download it, and I don't have a 2nd computer that's running it. The androids have been synched but are of no use for this purpose.

Hi!
You need the Recovery Key (sometimes known as Sync Key) and to follow these instructions: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How%20to%20sync%20Firefox%20settings%20between%20computers#w_what-if-im-not-near-my-first-computer
If, as you say, your Android devices are logged you can get the Recovery Key from them with this add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/mobile/addon/aboutsynckey/

Tabs cannot be created

My iMac hard drive crashed how do get my apps on the new one?

The hard drive for my 27 inch imac crashed how do I get the iphoto and other owned apps in my new hard drive?

General File Recovery
If you stop using the drive it's possible to recover deleted files that have not been overwritten by using recovery software such as Data Rescue II, File Salvage or TechTool Pro. Each of the preceding come on bootable CDs to enable usage without risk of writing more data to the hard drive. Two free alternatives are Disk Drill and TestDisk. Look for them and demos at MacUpdate or CNET Downloads. Recovery software usually provides trial versions that enable you to determine if the software would help before actually paying for it. Beyond this or if the drive has completely failed, then you would need to send the drive to a recovery service which is very expensive.
The longer the hard drive remains in use and data are written to it, the greater the risk your deleted files will be overwritten.
Also visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on Data Recovery.
You will need to install the old drive into an external enclosure to try and access it.
Any applications purchased from the App Store can simply be redownloaded.

App store trying to use my old apple ID - how can I make it use my new one?

Hope someone can help.
I've changed my email address and created a new Apple ID. It works fine on my computer (have successfully bought music), works fine on ITunes on my iphone (again, successfully bought music), but the App store insists on my old ID (although of course it won't accept my old password.
I've logged out and back in again in Settings, and synced before and after successfully making purchases in ITunes but to no avail.
Any suggestions?

I am having that exact same problem too. It locked me out of my old account for some reason, so I created a new one. I am able to log on, I recently bought music, and I changed my apple ID in the store settings in my iPhone. However, when I try to update my apps/try to buy new ones on my phone it keeps defaulting to the old one without giving an option to use a different ID. I rebooted my phone and searched for other areas that I might have to enter the new ID, but I can't find anything...

How can I transfer Firefox to a new computer?

Just bought a new Windows 7 computer and would like to transfer Firefox, with all bookmarks, PW etc. from my old XP laptop. Is there a simple way to do this?

Hi,
You can try copying the old [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder Firefox Profile Folder] to the new system, and on the new system, start the [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Managing-profiles Firefox Manager] > '''Create Profile''' > '''Next''' > '''Choose Folder''' > '''OK''' > '''Finish''' > '''Start Firefox'''. Even otherwise you can try to [[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Recovering%20important%20data%20from%20an%20old%20profile?s=profile&r=1&e=sph&as=s replace/overwrite the needed files] from the old profile into the new, for eg. the '''places.sqlite''' stores the bookmarks + history, '''key3.db''' and '''signons.sqlite''' are needed for the saved passwords etc.

HI! My husband and I share an itunes account, we have different taste in music and are sick of each others crap (so to speak haha). I want to open a new itunes account for him, without him losing his data, music and photos. How do we do this?

I looked on my C:\ for plugin-container.exe and deleted the file as it kept slowing down my computor, however now when I load firefox it crashes, how can I re-install this plugin to disable it properly?

My computor had been overly slow which was not normal when looking at processes running in task manager I found plugin-container.exe to be using alot of memory. I looked online and found that this was an update of firefox which was not essential, I then looked on my C:\ drive for the application and deleted it hoping this would solve the problem as I could not find it when looking at my firefox plugins. However now when I open firefox it quickly crashes, how can I reinstall this? Do I need to reinstall firefox completely or is there a more simple solution? I have done the firefox plugin check and it can find no problems.

Probably the easiest way is to download Firefox again from http://www.mozilla.com and re-install it.
If you want to disable plugin-container, see the section on "Disabling crash protection" at http://kb.mozillazine.org/Plugin-container_and_out-of-process_plugins

I have an imac 27 inch O SX 10.6.8. using iphoto 11 Version 9.1.5. I have scanned some photos at very high resolution with each photo being about 45MB. They're saved to desktop. How can I reduce the size of the scanned photo's they are crashing iphoto.

What format are they? Tiif? Jpeg? You can compress them with a lot of apps - including Preivew and just about any graphics editor out there. I'm not sure that 45mb would crash iPhoto thogh, are yo sure that's the cause? I know that some folks have mentioned pixel dimensions causing issues, as can color profiles.

Firefox 18.0.01 (Mac) Won't synch Bookmarks with older FF versions 9!0.5.8 and 10.4.11) How can I synch these versions? Thanks

Firefox just upgraded itself to 18.0.1 on my iMac (OSX 10.7.5, Lion)
I have been using " Synchronize! Pro " for ten years to synch (or Backup) my iMac to my three laptops.
The Laptops are all PPC (non-Intel) iBooks of various vintages, running OS X 10.5.8 and 10.4.11.
The synchs ran fine until yesterday, when FF 18.0.1 arrived
Synchronize! Pro synchronized the drnpcf9j.default folder in the Firefox's profiles folder from the pre-18.0.1 version to the same folder in the three PPC laptops running FF 3.6.24 and 3.6.28.
Now, with the upgrade to ver. 18.0.1, it won't synch. The bookmarks are now located in a folder named "Profiles" which contains two new folders , neither of them named the old "drnpcf9j.default" .
How can I synch (or back-up) my new Profiles or bookmarks to the three older iBooks)
The Firefox synch won't work because the older browsers don't have a synch setup in the "Tools" menu.
Suggestions dearly welcome.
Many thanks
--GG

You can save the bookmarks to another location and restore or import them into the older versions of Firefox from the bookmarks library window.

Following repeated crashing of Firefox 3.6.11, I was required to amend my profiles to correct a security error (I got an ssl error) by deleting cert8.db file. I have lost all my browsing history in the crash, how can I recover it?

The problem originated from Talktalk's Assist & Go software interfering with my browser settings. This caused Firefox to repeatedly crash with message (see below)I then got error "ssl_error_ssl_disabled" when trying to access my webmail- I followed the help instructions and deleted the cert8.db file whcih allowed Firefox to start & me to access my webmail.
But all the browsing history has disappeared, I had about 6 months prior to the crash, how can I recover it, is there a backup?
