Aurora updated to 35.0a2 (x86 en-US) and I lost all the passwords in Save Password Editor
The computer is used for my office and Mozilla was set to automatically update. Prior to the update earlier today, I looked into Save Password Editor 2.8.1. Later, after Aurora updated to 35.0a2, the add on (Save Password Editor) did not exist. I downloaded the add-on again and it is empty (as I thought it would be). Can I still access the passwords? They are on a computer that was used by my now deceased business partner. I was going to restore the computer to a previous date (earlier than today) but this computer was not set up for a system restore. Any help to either revert to an earlier Aurora edition or to access the passwords would be greatly appreciated!!
You need to recover the logins.json (or possibly signons.sqlite) and key3.db files to restore the passwords.
*C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>\
The "AppData" folder in Windows Vista and later Window 7+ versions and the "Application Data" folder in XP/Win2K are hidden folders.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Show_hidden_files_and_folders
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Firefox 32 and later builds store the passwords in the logins.json file in the profile folder and no longer use the signons.sqlite file that has been used before (the matching key3.db file is still needed).
If you still have the signons.sqlite file used in previous Firefox versions then you can try to force Firefox to migrate the passwords saved in that file (you will lose passwords saved in Firefox 32+ versions).
You can force Firefox to reimport the passwords from the signons.sqlite file and rebuild the logins.json file with these steps:
* reset the <b>signon.importedFromSqlite</b> pref on the <b>about:config</b> page to the default value via the right-click context menu
* delete the <b>logins.json</b> file in the Firefox profile folder with Firefox closed
When you restart Firefox then you should have the signon.importedFromSqlite pref with the value set to true and you should have the passwords imported in the Password Manager unless there may have been errors.

Looks like you restored your backup file to her phone. If you didn't back up your wife's phone first, then the data is gone, sorry.

I tries using itunes to sync the music again but it failed to transferred any songs over to the iphone. When I click on the MUSIC icon in the iphone, it shows NO CONTENT.
Have you followed http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1559 ?
Also try settings>general>reset>reset all settings
If you have followed that article and restored your phone and set it up as new and you're still having that issue you may call and explain you followed the article and are still having the problem. Most likely they will either set up a replacement for you. If they ask you to set up the one time phone support agreement, and they assist you with a restore again, they won't bill you if they end up having to repair it. -
I cant seem to download and install the latest iphone software update. I have tried since the release and have been unsuccessful on more than 7 occasions and lost all the data on the process. Anyone have that problem an how do I fix this problem?
Hi
Thanks but I have tried doing the above - when I said 7 times I was modest, its more like 15 times.
And I am referring to the 5.1 software update. I dont have wifi so I guess I will have to try that seeing that my husband also has the same problem - he has also tried downloading several times. It always times out en says that the connection is lost but yet there are always an internet connection and a decent signal once it stopped. Think it said error 32052 or something!
I am disappointed because the update includes inprovement on the battery life - did you guys notice any difference? -
My iPhone3GS running iOS5 has recently been reluctant to upgrade Apps. The App store asks for my password and then marks all the Apps as being updated. Often only one or none actually update. Usually I get a message saying "Unable to download application" and "<app> could not be downloaded at this time - Done or Retry".
It's not an iTunes login / password issue because sometimes one or two of the Apps will download and the others stall with the blank progress bar. The internet connection is working fine in all other respects.
Sometimes, many restarts later the downloads will complete. Is this a known bug? Is Apple working on it? Any fixes?My iPhone3GS running iOS5 has recently been reluctant to upgrade Apps.

I updated my 3g iphone to the ISO 5.0 & now i lost all the music that I had downloaded from CD's, but all the music i purchased is still there. How can I get my CD music back on my phone?
for purchases from the iTunes store do this:
connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
for everything else check out this post by Zevoneer. -
My husband bought an iPad 2. I have a Mac. ITunes is in my name but I have turned sharing on. When we updated to OS5 we lost all the free apps that he downloaded in his user name. Is there no way to update using my iTunes without losing his software. He is frustrated using the iPad because he never knows whether to use his user name or my user name.
Apps are only tied to one account... You can set up two iTunes accounts on your computer, however, and let his iPad sync to his account. If he has never backed up his apps to a computer, however, he will have to redownload all the apps. Afterwards, he can backup to iCloud instead of your computer.

I Connected My IPad 1st Generation To The Computed To Have It updated And I Lost All of My Pictures, How Do I Get Them Back?? Help, Please!
Did you backup the iPad first? If you did - restore from the backup in order to restore the photos in the Saved Album on your iPad. If the photos were synced to the iPad, then sync them back again via iTunes.
How to backup and restore from a backup
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
If you did backup first, you will be restoring your most recent backup and you should be OK. But know that when you restore from a backup, you restore everything that is in that backup onto the iPad .... All documents, device settings, all data and so on. You cannot just select photos to restore to the iPad. It's all or nothing. -
I updated my iphone to 5.0.1 and it deleted all of my photos, how do I get them back?
Have you synced back up to your iTunes account? This happened to me too, and when I synced back up with iTunes, all of my photos were backed up to my iTunes account and loaded back onto my iPhone.

Why, when I try to install the latest iTunes update, itsays that I have an "invalid" signature...I have used this same machine and have installed all the previous updates with no problem.
That one suggests the installer has gotten damaged during the download.
I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer? -
When I updated my iphone 4S to iOS 6.0, I lost all of my phone contacts. How can I retrieve them?
Just a guess here, but when you are in Contacts, look to the top where it says Groups. Could yours be set to Hide All Contacts?

I have an ipad 2, yesterday I updated my ipad going in to settings software update, then the ipad went into resore mode saying it needs to connect to itunes. I did that and itunes said it was goingo to do a resotre and I lost all my info, pictures, contacts. Is there a way to recover all my info?
You should be able to reconnect to iTunes and then you should see an option to restore to your ipad from your last back up in iTunes.

updated my iphone 4 to iOS 5.0.1 and then lost all my apps. how can I restore them?
As long as the apps are still available in the store, and you use the same iTunes account as you originally used to buy them, then you should be able to re-download them for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519 . If you download them to your computer's iTunes you could then try restoring to your backup and see if that restores them and their settings/content back to your iPhone - a backup doesn't contain the actual apps, just their content/settings, so for the restore to work fully iTunes needs access to the apps so that it can restore them.

You calendar info should also be mirrored on your computer. Use the option to replace all events on the iPod with the info on your computer during the next sync. You can find this option in the info pane, Advanced section.
You can also use the latest backup to restore from, it contains the calendar info as well: iTunes: About iOS backups
