All my bookmarks were lost and i tried going to library and restoring but nothing came up! help!
i did what the help section said about trying to restore old sessions but it said error.
Thank you very much for your help.
What worked for me was to close down Firefox, delete the "places.sqlite" file and restart Firefox. My bookmarks instantly came back. This file is inside the "application data" folder which is a hidden folder. You must unhide the "application data" folder first in order to delete the "places sqlite" file using windows explorer.
There may be an easier way but this worked for me.
Thanks again

Since a FF8 update, all bookmarks were lost and none of the recommended restore methods work, even though I have been able to find the backup ".json" files; I continually get "Unable to process the backup file" for all methods of importing or restoring the bookmarks from the .json files. As others note, I can also no longer add any new bookmarks to my now empty bookmarks tab. My profile has not changed, so that's not the problem. This is really a pain.
Did you try to delete the file places.sqlite to make Firefox rebuild the places.sqlite database file from a JSON backup?
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_process_the_backup_file_-_Firefox
A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

I started firefox this morning just like normal, I didn't change ANYTHING on firefox or on my computer. Now all my bookmarks were randomly erased, and now Hulu is not working. This is the error message from hulu:
"It appears that software on your computer is blocking JavaScript. To enjoy Hulu.com, you'll need to enable JavaScript in your web browser. Please configure your security software or browser plugins to allow Hulu.com to load JavaScript. "
Then when I go to hulu's tech support and follow their direction to enable Java, their directions are incorrect!!!! For the skeptics: http://www.hulu.com/support/article/406387
I tried looking for bookmarks backups and there are none on my computer, so I am now forced to go through and remake all my bookmarks.
This makes absolutely no sense and I don't understand why no one has a decent answer. I better not see a god damn moderator get on here and tell me "this is not typical behavior". What a load of crap! I've seen other questions on here about the same damn thing that are still unresolved.Okay, take a deep breath. Everyone is responding to your problem of losing your settings. Firefox settings folders are called profiles. If you can switch Firefox from whatever pretty much empty profile folder it is using now back to your previous profile, this should resolve your issue. Hopefully with that context in mind, the earlier replies will make more sense.
Also, Java is a plugin used to play certain applets and JavaScript is a technology built into Firefox. For now, you can ignore Java and focus on JavaScript.
JavaScript is enabled by default. To switch the setting, you can use the about:config preferences editor. Here's how:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''java''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) If '''javascript.enabled''' is user set to false, double-click it to switch it back to the default value of true. -
I updated from Firefox 3 to Firefox 5 (Windows XP), and all my bookmarks are lost. Maybe I should have thought of making a backup but I did not think of this and previously after an update I could find them again. Now I can not find my bookmarks anywhere, all files in my profile have a date and time from the new installation. Is there any chance of finding my bookmarks somewhere else on my computer? If so, where are they and how can I restore them?
Thanks for the answer. I read the article but it seems that the solution to my problem is not in there. Apart from the lost bookmarks Firefox is working fine, also I can make new bookmarks and delete them without problems. When I restart Firefox I don't loose them.
Apparently after installing Firefox 5 everything of Firefox 3 was deleted including my profile. The only bookmark .json file I have is from the new installation, which means it does not contain any of my old bookmarks. It now has today's date and time.
In my profile I have three 'places' files, now all with today's date and time:
- places.sqlite (10240 kb)
- places.sqlite-shm (32 kb)
- places.sqlite-wal (865 kb)
But even though places.sqlite is large, it apparently does not contain my old information. Or could it? Then how to get to it? -
I'm trying to update iTunes to 10.5.2. I have a Windows 7 64-bit Dell laptop, and when I try to update it, I get the message "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor."
I went to the troubleshooting page and did all of the steps they listed: uninstalled iTunes, deleted by Temp files, even disabled AVG while I downloaded again and tried to install. I still get the same message. If anyone can help me, I would really appreciate it!You must have gone to the old microsoft post.

Plug your device into the original charger & block in a wall outlet and leave it alone for a couple of hours. Then, while it is still plugged in, restart it by holding down the home button and the power button for 10-15 seconds until you see the Apple, then let go.

Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times. -

Whenever I opened Firefox Start Page, all my bookmarks were displayed on the left side. I accidently hit something, and now all my bookmarks are gone.
Firefox has a Bookmarks Sidebar you can open and close using Ctrl+b. That's pretty easy to hit if you're trying to bold something, but if a website doesn't intercept it, then it affects your sidebar.
Was that it? -
I turned off my phone and when I turned it back on, all my apps were deleted. I tried to reinstall my apps, but it wouldn't let me. My storage still remained the same even though, all my apps were deleted. How can I get my apps back?
Hold the home and power button down until your phone restarts. If that doesn't work, backup and restore using iTunes.

Re-installed Firefox wiht Dell and my bookmarks were lost
I was having a problem with Adobe Reader and Dell Tech support suggested re-installing Firefox. It worked but later I noticed all
my bookmarks were gone. Are they still on the computer capable of being restored?A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

I have a ton of files on my iPod and just got an iPhone. Last time I updated all my files were lost; how do I prevent this from happening again?
Max,
It really can take very long to import and process so many images - I would not dare to make a prediction.
Can you open the Activity Viewer?
From Aperture's main menu bar: Window > Show Activity.
This window will tell you the filename of the image that is currently being processed.
if you are seeing, that the import is still far from being finished, you might to pause certain tasks directly from this panel, like the generation of previews or scanning for faces. I'd let the import run, if you see that it is making progress.
Have you enabled very time-consuming options, like the generation of high resolution previes or scanning for faces and places? if yes, and the import is not making any progress at all, I'd disable thes options in the Aperture preferences for the initial import. You can add these later for the projects where you want to use these features.
Regards

In setting up my IPAD,all of my Kindle books were lost and I am not allowed to access them. They do not appear on my cloud either. How do I fix this?
iCloud doesn't sync books so you wouldn't find them in your iCloud account. I don't use Kindle but it looks like you can redownload you purchased books from the Kindle app. See "Book was accidentally deleted from the Kindle app" here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html/ref=help_search_1-2?ie=UTF8& nodeId=200438490&qid=1349822479&sr=1-2.
