Bookmarks go missing after each update - why???

with frequent updates, after each update all my bookmarks have gone

Which update to Mac OS X are you speaking of? Your profile is incomplete; you should indicate exactly which Mac model and speed you have, along with the specific version fo Mac OS X and any external peripherals that may be connected. There was no update for Mail. And where did you get IE for Mac, since it hasn't been available for several years now, not even from Microsoft. It's dead; extremely insecure, unsupported, kaput.
As for your bookmarks, I don't think they're gone, since you didn't find them in the Trash; they're probably still on your system. You should look in this directory for a file named Bookmarks.plist: /Users/your username/Library/Safari. If you see it there, then you do have them; if not, try searching your entire hard drive for that specific file to see if it's still there and where it's located.
If her hard drive has 10 GB or less of space, time to start clearing out the junk you don't need or don't use. That fact alone could have been a factor in this problem, but it's unclear at this point.

Why icudt49.dll is missing after an Update?! Now I can't use the itunes now! Please fix it.

I just updated the itunes and after the update, it says icudt49.dll is missing and asked me to try to reinstall again and I did. But it does not work. This is very upsetting. Please fix it as soon as possible.

Today withI have lost all my bookmarks passwords profile after Firefox updated to the newest versionout asking me first

I have lost all my bookmarks passwords profile etc after Firefox updated to the newest version today without asking me first. I liked what I had & several times a day it would say there are updates but I closed those popups or messages. Im now using the latest version just so I can have some use while I try to sort this out & get help.

I'm adding that I tried system restore several times .... & my last full backup.... but each time something was corrupted or would not launch or there was no '''.exe '''file in the program folder...Ive never seen this before, & the Mozilla backup I had was useless... it was unable to launch either

Apps are missing after ios5 update

after ios5 update on ipad2 all my apps are missing, how do i get them back?

I have the same problem. I disconnected and synced, and I can see them in itunes,
Disconnected from what? the computer? Did you connect to the computer again, launch iTunes and then do as I described above?
You have selected all of the apps to sync - put checkmarks in all of the boxes next to the app names and have the Sync Apps heading checked as well?
Do you have restrictions set on the iPad? Settings>General>Restrictions>On?
Are you signed into the correct iTunes account on the iPad and the computer?

Native Camera App missing after iOS4 update

Hi
After the update to iOS4 (iPhone 3G) I moved all my camera apps into a folder named 'photography' and the naitive camera app has disapeared! I have tried restore and it came back, but went when I synced to my iPhone backup.
Just read the other thread and tried the 'restore home screen layout' but still nowhere to be seen! Have tried searching spotlight for it and nothing!
Please Help! None of my other camera apps work without it.
Thanks
Simon

Just wanted to add my name to this topic.
I'd read elsewhere that it is thought to be caused by adding and removing Exchange settings. I noticed it was gone after I re-enabled my googlemail via Exchange protocols ... but that is probably a coincidence.
I think I may have to do a iOS4 reinstallation, but not restore from backup and configure the phone as new. Aaargh.

Why are some of the icons in my Bookmarks list missing after 8.0 update

I installed the 8.0 update a few days ago, and when I opened my Bookmarks lists some of the icons associated with the various websites are missing. Is there a way to correct this problem?

I don't know how many photos you're trying to post on one page but if you put too many PCs using Internet Explorer may have problems loading the page. I prefer to keep the number down to less than 50 and have more than one page which will be indicated by the page links at the top of the thumbnails:
These smaller pages will load faster and in more browsers.

My former Firefox Profile and bookmarks are missing after a Firefox 29 update - how to get them back?

I've tried all the Mozilla support articles without success.
Where are my bookmarks/passwords/etc. saved in my Mac desktop computer?
Help!!!

It is possible that there is or has been a problem with the profiles.ini file that registers all profile and that a new default profile got created.

If you sue the Time Machine on your Mac then you can try to recover files that way

Podcasts badge still not working after latest update WHY??

I was hoping the latest update would have fixed the problem with the badges in podcasts! But no still the same!
It's just crazy to me they used to work before i think it was version 5.2, you just opened the podcast apps and the badges told you how many unplayed episodes you had perfect!
Now you have to open each podcast and then come out for the badge to work WHY??
I have tried to go back to version 5.1 but no Apple will not let me so stuck with this inferior version!

Take the device to Apple for evaluation, most likely the hardware has failed.

New photo upload missing after I updated to iPhoto 11

Hi and Help!
I was prompted to update to iPhoto 11 on the weekend (don't know why now particularly, I'm in iPhoto all the time). So I followed the instructions, library updated, all existing events and albums are there. I uploaded some more pictures and created a few new albums and did some new year spring cleaning, moving stuff around etc. And I started making a calendar.
I've opened it up today, my calendar project is still there as are all the new events, but the pictures are empty outlines. If I open up a picture I just get a large exclamation mark "!" but I can still see the thumbnails showing in the slider in the bottom - I don't know if that means the source files must still be there somewhere, or if it just means it captured thumbnails yesterday.
I've gone into the folders via "show package contents" and there just don't seem to be any masters for an upload this weekend. I also had a look in the last import folder. As I scrolled down through the folder the images were there and literally disappeared in front of me - by which I mean, the thumbnails were there as I scrolled down and then would turn into empty outlines...!
All my old folders are still there, thankfully (although they're of course the ones that are also all safely back up).
Because I don't have the cable for my camera, I uploaded them through a card-reader, I don't know if that may affect their date-stamp (and so therefore where to find them in package contents route). I've uploaded previously this way though, and it hasn't been issue regarding losing the images.
Although I have a timecapsule, my photo library is too big to keep on my hard drive, so I keep it on an external drive - meaning it only gets backed up when I do it manually (thanks Apple for that, I will never understand why it was designed to work - or not work - that way). So if the pictures have been lost then they are gone for good which is horrible (I just got back from South Korea and was in the middle of sorting out all my shots from that trip). Plus there was stuff on the camera dating back to the summer.
It seems that this can only have happened because of the update - I should have known better than to have pressed yes.
I'm on a macbook pro and using OSX Lion.
If you have any suggestions, I'd be most grateful!
Regards
R

Hi,
ok - on the many other back up solutions available front: I guess I have bought into the Apple 'plug n play' 'it all works seamlessly' dream. I have twice been sold supposed total solutions - in 2009, on the advice of a Miami Apple store, upgrading my old macbook pro's OSX to I think snow leopard, specifically to get time machine, and buying a La Cie 1TB external drive and WD 0.5TB portable external, to work with the airport extreme I had at home....
then, after my iTunes armageddon last year, when I was unable to resolve it through several very long Apple-care calls, I went into the Genius bar at the Shanghai store, where I now live, and left with a partial recovery...and a new 2TB time capsule, 1TB La Cie external drive, and the Lion OSX. To go with my current macbook pro. So, having invested significantly in Apple's solutions, I'm looking to them to work rather than replace them with something else when I don't know if they'll be any better. People who are supposed to know have told me that it couldn't sweep from peripherals, so I've taken their word for it. Does that make me a mug? Very probably.
Re format:
1) La Cie -
Kind: volume
Format: exFAT
Capacity: 1TB
Available: 400.55 GB
Sharing & permissions: I can read and write
2) Time Capsule - when I click on 'get info' I don't get very much info, just:

External drives went missing after Security Update 2015-002

I'm running late 2009 iMac 27" with up-to-date Mavericks (10.9.5).
I just ran the Security Update 2015-002 and now:
- my external Firewrie drive won't show up (WD MyBook Studio II 2TB)
- my external USB drive won't show up (WD MyBook Studio 1TB)
Both drives show up perfectly on another Mac (with Yosemite). Just not on this one.
Tried the usual, repaired permissions, reset pram, etc.
Any help would be great please

Lots of YouTube subscription videos missing after last update?

After the latest software update for Apple TV I noticed a LOT of Youtube videos were missing from my subscriptions, and in some cases, entire channels. The channels are still there to be selected, but it acts as though they contain no videos. This even includes Apple's own YouTube channel among those affected. Some other channels have a few, but not all of their videos, and some were completely unaffected and still have all their videos.
I submitted a bug report to Apple, but wanted to know if anyone else has had this issue since it seems to have happened only after the last software update.

I have recently updated to version 8 and not only does my library seem to be missing but my playlists are gone too. I am currently adding my music folders into iTunes again so i hope that fixes the library issue but I am not so sure about my all my playlists.

Sorry if I should be starting a new thread, but I can't figure out how. I can't even contemplate updating to 8 without getting the playlist problrm solved.
For no apparent reason, some months after moving my library to an external drive,following one or another "For Dummies," after syncing, all the playlists disappeared from my ipod (though not from my computer).
I suspect that I need to move something else between C-drive and external K, but can't figure out hoe to do that. Since I have 125 GB on the ipod and a 60 GB C-drive (and a 320 K-drive) there's a lot I could mess up.
I REALLY need my (many many many) playlists back on the ipod!
Thanks so much for any help you can give.
