Bookmarks got deleted on firefox 4 installation and i cannot restore them or add new ones. how to fix?

ok so the other day i upgraded my firefox to 4 but when it opened i had no bookmarks and could not even add new ones or restore ones from previous days. I cannot drag website onto the bar where you could have button shortcuts either. I would really like to know if i could fix this because I want my bookmarks back.

hello 43kogjvdl94, maybe the file in your profile that holds your bookmarks and history got corrupted. maybe try to rename/delete it so that it will be regenerated (please make a backup first before you proceed): go to ''firefox > help > troubleshooting information'', click on ''profile folder/show folder'' and close all firefox windows afterwards. a windows explorer window should open up - in there rename the file named '''places.sqlite''' - and restart firefox again. your history will be gone, but you should be able to restore your bookmarks through the bookmarks library > import & backup > restore...

I purchased Lightroom 5 and Elements 12 and installed them on a computer. I now have a new computer, and wish to install them on the new one. When I tried to do so, my only option seemed to be Adobe Cloud. When I was asked for my LR serial number, it was not accepted. Please help me install these two products; I prefer stand-alone, rather than a monthly fee. Thank you

I replaced my cracked iphone and had my pictures downloaded to my new one. how do i delete them from my new iphone. it doesnt give the option to delete any of the previously saved pictures.

I cracked my phone and replaced it. most of my pictures were transfered from the cracked iphone to the new one. however, it is not allowing me to delete any of the oringial pictures from the cracked phone on the new one. i am running out of space and want to get rid of pictures i really dont need.

Okay, sorry I was thinking you wanted to delete the pictures on your old iPhone. Go into your camera roll then tap the albums button to get to the album view then tap the edit button (right top) then tap the red circle to delete that album.

Did you really delete that Sync account?
Does it work if you ask for a new password?

I deleted my contacts by mistake and can't restore them from time capsule

Please Help!!
I deleted around 4000 contacts by mistake with a script deleting the annoying duplicates that come with cloud syncs.
I can't restore them from my time capsule, I have read other posts and they suggest to copy the contacts folder in a back up from my time machine, Time Machine volume -> Users ->Yued1 -> Library -> Application Support -> CONTACTS, coping the folder in to my desktop and deleting the one in my computer all with out internet connection so iCloud won't cause problems, export the contacts, connect to the internet and then once connected let iCloud do its thing and then import the exported contacts, it all sounds good but when I mount my time capsule volume I get the folder backups.backupdb>Yued's Macbook Pro>(The backup folder of the date I choose)>Macintosh HD>Users>yued1 but Inside yued1 there is no Library folder, I did the command in terminal to show all files and folders, terminal accepted it relaunched finder but still won't see library, the only folder in my time capsule with library, is inside Macintosh HD but doesn't have a contacts folder inside application support.
I have OS 10.9.4 processor 2.2 GHz i7 and 4GB 1333 MHz DDR3
I don't know what time capsule I have except that is a 1TB from 2011
I really appreciate your time helping me out. thank you!

Thanks for your help,
It takes forever to go from one window to another back in time, once I get to the one I want and click restore It goes back to my desktop as it would when restoring something else but the contacts stay the same...
I do see all the deleted contacts in the snapshots, but can't restore them

I have all the files from my itunes on an old computer and want to move them to a new one

I have all the files from my old computer but purchased a new one.
How can I have all of my playlists and things preserverd and moved to the new PC?

Type "move itunes library" into the google search bar

Made the switch to an mac from a PC. I imported the files but looks like my folders are protected and i cannot access them. Any thoughts on how to remove permissions?

All the pictures and files that were migrated are in folders that I do not have access to on the mac now. They imported fine, but now I cannot access them, Any thoughts on how to get them?

What you can do is this:
Open the Terminal application in the Utilities folder. At the command line prompt and paste the following line:
sudo chown -R `id -un`:`id -gn`
Put a space after "-gn`" and drag the folder that has all the imported folders into the Terminal window.
Press RETURN. You will be prompted to enter your admin password which will not be echoed.
This should give all the files and folders the same permissions as your Home folder so you can access the data. If the folders with your files are not contained in a single folder, then create a new folder on your Desktop (COMMAND-SHIFT-N) and drag all the imported folders into this new folder.

FireFox crashed and when I opened it the only way to get my tabs back was to restore them in a new window,how do I fix this?

This Isn't the first time this has happened to me.
The tabs have to be restored in a new window Instead of the main one
witch just displays my home page.I have to restore my tabs in a new window every time I open Firefox and the only way I have found to fix this is to open all my tabs one by one in the main window.
I just want an easier way to transfer my tabs so they open every time I
open Firefox.Is there a way to do this other than the method I mentioned because its annoying to have to open all my tabs one by one every time this hapens

Hi Steeloid
click on the Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > General panel > Startup > Show my windows and tabs from last time .
see for more info : https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/startup-home-page-download-settings#w_startup

Since this is an XP machine, which version of iTunes do you have installed? Is it the latest version?
Have you tried starting iTunes, attach the USB end of the cable, then while holding the home button on the iPod connect the 30-pin connector end of the cable to the iPod...that is the recovery mode but also should make iTunes see the iPod.
If that doesn't work you may need to take the iPod back and have it tested by the genius bar techs to make sure the connector is not bad.

I have the disks from my initial installation of elements 10. My computer crashed and I cannot reinstall elements on the new one. What's wrong?

I cannot reinstall elements 10 from the disks I have. My original computer crashed. I would like to retrieve the work that I have in elements and continue. What can I do?@

hi rick,
don't forget that, in fact, your photos were not "contained" in photoshop, but on the hard disk of your ( now crashed ? ) computer. Tell us something about that crashed machine: do you still have it , did someone try to retrieve some info out of it, what was the diagnostic of repairmen, etc...Did you have a backup of these photos ?

Thanks, but, using the "free" version of Reader, there is no opportunity to open nor import the xml data - the menu options do not exist - there is no import listed.
If we try to open the xml file directly, then we get an error - something to the effect of "unsupported file type, or the file is corrupted".
I just noticed in my Pro version that there is the command File ->Form Data ->Import Data to Form... command. Is this what you are referring to?
What do you recommend? Perhaps the easiest thing to do would be to purchase a few copies of Acrobat Pro for the reservations people to use? I was hoping that the free version of reader would do it, but perhaps not?
Thanks again,
Rob

Restore from backup if you have one:
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

I lost my bookmarks and I am unable to save any new ones.

I re-installed FF3.6 and lost my bookmarks. I also cannot add any new bookmarks I did this 4 times and gave up and I unfortunately deleted my default user files so I cannot restore from the automatic bookmark backups. I had backed up my bookmarks to a flash drive. The bookmarks are all there and in HTLM form. I tried to restore from this backup but can't do it.
I know I have made a mess but I was thoroughly pissed off. I had also tried to come here but my password could never be changed so I couldn't ask a question. It was finally changed an hour ago.
If someone has any suggestions I would be grateful. I had tried FFv4 bur Roboform does not work there and I am not going to start paying them $20/year just because they won't update their plug-in.
Thank you very much for any help.

Thank you for answering. I think I have the log in problem fixed at least for today.
I have tried to import a copy of my bookmarks from a flash drive but it won't work. I think I have to make a new profile. When I looked at the old profile there weren't any bookmarks in the folder. If I do start a new profile would I be able to import my html copy of bookmarks? I am getting so frustrated and having to use IE doesn't help matters. I know the support for FF 3.6 is short lived but roboform will not work in FF 4 and I haven't tried FF5 but I assume it would be the same. They just want to make the older versions a thing of the past so they can charge the $20/mo. and I don't want to do that. But I may be forced to. I could change to another like LastPass but I don't really know anything about that one. I really need a password manager for my iphone. Sorry if I have asked about more than one problem but I really want to keep using FF.
Thanks for any help.

Ever since the last update I don't have my old bookmarks, can't add new ones and can't import my HTML file. How do I fix this?

ever since the last firefox update I don't have my old bookmarks, can't add new ones and can't add my HTML file of my bookmarks

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
