After I boot my computer, I have to reinstall all of my addons

When I reboot my computer, I get 12 tabs asking me if I want to install each of my addons. Does not happen when I shut down firefos, just when I reboot windows. I have windows 7 and the latest firefox. Actually this has been going on for the last 6-9 months, through the last few updates.

There are quite a few different options you can try.
Open the Firefox [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder] via '''Help''' ('''Alt''' + '''H''') > '''Troubleshooting Information''' > '''Open Containing Folder''', exit Firefox and delete the files named '''extensions.***''' , start Firefox and repeat the above procedure one last time. Check if it holds.
You can also [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Managing-profiles?s=profile&r=0&e=sph&as=s#w_creating-a-profile create a new profile], [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Recovering%20important%20data%20from%20an%20old%20profile?s=profile&r=1&e=sph&as=s copy needed data] from the old profile and [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Managing-profiles?s=profile&r=0&e=sph&as=s#w_removing-a-profile delete the old profile]. You may have to install all the addons again.
Otherwise you can also do a clean install. While uninstalling, select to delete all files and preferences, and then do a clean install. Again, you have to install all the addons.
You may want to [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Backing%20up%20your%20information?s=backup&r=1&e=sph&as=s backup] important info like bookmarks, history, passwords etc.

  • My ipod is not recognized on a new computer after old one crashed.  I have painstakenly restored all songs and playlists.  I deautorized all, and the reauthorized new computer.  It won't sync.

    My ipod is now recognized on a new computer after old one crashed.  I installed itunes on the new computer, and have painstakenly restored all songs and playlists. I also purchased several new songs from the itunes stores.  Now my ipod will not sync with the new computer.  I deauthorized all computers, then reauthorozed the new one.  My ipod still won't sync.

    ...after running diagnostics through itunes, itunes says  "device not found"  Seems there are a lot of others having this problem,and it seems to be related to new version of itunes.  Apple should do something to fix this.

  • If I replace the HD do I have to reinstall all apps

    If I replace the HD on my Mac Book Pro 13 inch, do I have to reinstall all apps...?

    If you properly backup, it is fairly painless.
    Short answer: Make a CarbonCopyClone bootable copy of your startup disk on a self-powered external drive.  Then boot from that clone to prepare your new disk (formatting) and clone back your original OS fully functional.
    Long answer, read this (https://discussions.apple.com/message/16276201#16276201) and ask back when done reading.

    If you didn't have the opportunity to deactivate the installations then you should contact Adobe Support thru chat and ask them to reset your activations for all the serial numbers involved.
    Chat support - For the link below click the Still Need Help? option in the blue area at the bottom and choose the chat option...
    Make sure you are logged in to the Adobe site, have cookies enabled, clear your cookie cache.  If it continues to fail try using a different browser.

  • Will I have to reinstall all my plugins that I have in Photoshop CC into Photoshop CC 2014 since they did not migrate?

    will I have to reinstall all my plugins that I have in Photoshop CC into Photoshop CC 2014 since they did not migrate?

    Linking to self-contained plug-ins via a shortcut can be a good way to keep things organized, but be aware of one thing: 
    Many plug-ins today are not truly self-contained, but actually install additional things like DLL files into the Photoshop installation area itself (something I regard as a bad practice).  What this means is even if you are to link to another place from the plug-ins subfolder under the new Photoshop CC (2014) installation area, your plug-ins may not all run properly.  If they have an installer, your best approach is to use the installer.

  • If I upgrade from 10.5.8 (Leopard) to 10.6.5 (Snow Leopard) will I have to reinstall all of my applications? Along with that, will it update all of my applications?

    If I upgrade from 10.5.8 (Leopard) to 10.6.5 (Snow Leopard) will I have to reinstall all of my applications? Along with that, will it update all of my applications?

    You can upgrade 10.6 right over 10.5 with hardly any issues.
    You will not have to resintall any applications, and the only applicaitons that get updates are the bundled one's Apple includes. Not your third party ones, those require your manual updates, but likely not paid updates for the most part.
    10.6 is for Intel processors, offeres video card driver improvements, some new UI tweaks and strips out the PPC processor code your not using.
    Your sort of already using Snow Leopard already under Leopard, as Leopard is for both Intel and PPC processors.
    Now if your thinking of updating to 10.6 to get to 10.7, then yes, your older programs from Leopard and even some from Snow Leopard will not work in Lion 10.7
    So 10.6 is as far as you go.

  • After installing 5.0 lost my apps. They appear in the apps purchased but not on screen. Do I have to reinstall all and will it  cost me again?

    After updating to 5.0 lost the apps I had purchased.  They Still appear on app site. Do i have to reinstall them all and will it cost me again?

    You can re-download apps for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519 . If you download them to your computer's iTunes you could then try restoring to your iTunes backup and see if the apps and their old content/settings get copied over.

  • Its a long story, but the short version is my computer has been lost at the repair shop.  So now I have another computer and have to download all my purchases and other stuff .  How do I down load Apps which I have purchased again?  Also talking books?

    Its a long story, but the short version is my computer hads been lost at the repair shop.  I now have to download all my purchases, Apps and books down again onto my ipad.  I have found my purchase (songs and TV Shows) but I cant find my apps I have all the receipts.  What do I do now?

    Before you do what Hunter suggested, you need to authorize the iTunes account on the new computer.  To authorize, Store > Authorize This Computer.  Use your current Apple ID and Password.  Then connect your iPad and transfer your purchases.

  • The computer that My ipod is synced to is in another country and now i want to take my music and add it to the computer i have but keep all of the music, can i do that?

    The computer that my ipod is hooked up to is in another country with a sibling and i want to get the music off my ipod and put it onto the computer i have but i dont know how or if it is even possible

    You can only sync to one computer.
    You would have to transfer purchases, but the apple ID would need to be the same.
    Or find a 3rd party app to transfer content.

  • Have to reinstall all my applications on my second computer

    Hi,
    I work on 2 computers at my job. One near the space i shoot my pictures and one at the office. I have one account, but when I ordered Adobe cloud they said it would be no problem if I installed cloud on both computers. I use it on both computers, not simultaneously ofcourse, but when I use it on my second computer, it does not work. I have to start application manager before the cloud app even works. And when cloud starts up, all the apps i downloaded like Photoshop are deleted and I have to reinstall it agai, which makes no sense.
    Does anyone know what I can do to fix this problem?

    This has nothing to do with Adobe. You have a local issue on your computer where you are not allowed to make changes to the system on a permanent basis or a system restore is resetting your system to a previous state. You need to figure out that part.

  • If i upgrade from lion to mountain lion, do i have to reinstall all of my adobe CS5.5?

    im just currently in the middle of a few big projects, and dont have the time to waste reinstalling all of my programs

    No. But I would suggest you wait until you are done with your projects. Or, be sure you have a bootable backup you can restore should you need to.
    You should never install system upgrades until you can determine that it is compatible with all your mission critical software.
