Bookmarks have been replaced by an old set

After updating to FF 3.6.25 my bookmarks have been replaced with an old set with lots of my newest bookmarks missing.
I've gone through organize bookmarks, restore but the only date is 5th Jan which was when i downloaded the new FF. How do i get the old bookmarks back ?

Firefox 2.0.0.20 uses HTML backups and Firefox 3 and later versions use JSON backups, so you won't see the bookmarks-xx-xx-xxxx.html files from Firefox 2.0.0.20 if you try to restore bookmarks in Firefox 3.6.x.
In that case you need to import the HTML file.
Firefox 3+ versions will automatically rebuild the bookmarks from the bookmarks.html file in the profile folder if there is no places.sqlite file and if there are no JSON backups present in the bookmarkbackups folder that can be used to restore bookmarks.

MAC OSX 10.4.11 I succumbed to the constant messages telling me that I didn't have the latest version, despite being happy with the one I had. My old version and all my bookmarks have been deleted and now my Mac says it doesn't support Firefox!!!!! How can I recuperate my old settings? in English

Firefox 4 versions and later '''do not run on a PowerPC Mac''' (like yours) and require '''at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac'''.
The latest supported version for your os is '''3.6.27''' , you can download it from:
http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
1. Download a 3.6.27 copy of the Firefox from the above link
2. Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install.
3. Install the new version that you have downloaded(3.6.27)
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so probably you won't lose your bookmarks or other personal data, if you don't already ''totally'' uninstall firefox(user data and settings like bookmarks, extensions, etc. located here: ~Library/Application Support/Firefox so you must uninstall it separately, to totally uninstall firefox).

Screen rotation lock is missing. It seems to have been replaced by a "mute on/off" button instead. How do I fix this?

I have also fixed my issue thanks to that thread, thank you.

My file names have disappeared in grid view. Thery have been replaced with a dark bar along the bottom of the previews. If I toggle using the command u it hide the bar but I still can't see the file name. In list view all the file names are OK.

The dark bar is caused by the option "Show metadata below image".
Check the settings for the metadata overlays in Grid view (basic and expanded) by clicking the little "badge" icon below the Browser and selecting "Edit". Is the filename still enabled in the list? And in a high enough position to have precedence for other metadata tags, if the space does not suffice to show all selected tags?

In iPhoto most of my photos appear to have been replaced by much smaller versions. What has happened and how can I get the full size photos back?

That is either a bug in Firefox 5 or the script has a problem with Firefox 5.<br />
It works in all other Firefox versions like Firefox 3 and 4 and 6 (Aurora) and 7 (Nightly).

My bookmarks have been lost and none of the suggestions in the database have helped

using firefox 3.6.3 on mac os 10.6.3
just updated to firefox 3.6.3 and my bookmarks have been lost. i tried restoring through menu > bookmarks > restore, but there's nothing there. i also tried the other suggestions as well, but nothing has helped.

yes, actually, sorry i didn't notice/mention that. everything seems to have been lost. but i didn't create anything. all i did was update firefox (download and drag into applications folder)

Simply put, I do not like like the new color coding "dots" and I do not like having to press the Command key before double clicking to open files in a new window. How hard would have been to include the old version of these two features?

Trying to do a password update but it asks me for a four digit pass code. Does anyone know if that would have been a significant date or set of letters or numbers I was prompt for in the past when I first bought my phone? Thanks.

It rather depends on where you are seeing the demand for a passcode. If, as I assumed, you are trying to change the password at http://appleid/apple.com then that will ask for a passcode if 2-step verification has been set up. On the other hand, if, as Csound1 has assumed, you have changed the password on that website and are trying to enter it in your phone (for which you need to sign out completely before you can do this) and are being asked for a passcode that can only be one you set yourself (unless of course the phone is second-hand in which case that would open a whole new can of worms).

I have been trying to import old family dads into iMovie. I receive the following message "None of the selected files or folders can be imported"

I have been trying to import old family dvd's into iMovie. I receive the following message "None of the selected files or folders can be imported" Is there a problem with the format not being recognized by Imovie? Same home dvd's work on internal dvd player. Any Ideas?

You need to convert the VOB files in the TS-Folder of the DVD back to DV which iMovie is designed to handle. For that you need mpegStreamclip:
http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html
which is free, but you must also have the Apple mpeg2 plugin :
http://store.apple.com/us/product/D2187Z/A/quicktime-mpeg-2-playback-component-f or-mac-os-x
(unless you are running Lion in which case see below))
which is a mere $20.
Another possibility is to use DVDxDV:
http://www.dvdxdv.com/NewFolderLookSite/Products/DVDxDV.overview.htm
which costs $25.
For the benefit of others who may read this thread:
Obviously the foregoing only applies to DVDs you have made yourself, or other home-made DVDs that have been given to you. It will NOT work on copy-protected commercial DVDs, which in any case would be illegal.
And from the TOU of these forums:

No material may be submitted that is intended to promote or commit an illegal act.
Do not submit software or descriptions of processes that break or otherwise ‘work around’ digital rights management software or hardware. This includes conversations about ‘ripping’ DVDs or working around FairPlay software used on the iTunes Store.
If you are running Lion or later:
From the MPEG Streamclip homepage
The installer of the MPEG-2 Playback Component may refuse to install the component in Lion. Apple states the component is unnecessary in Lion onwards, however MPEG Streamclip still needs it. See this:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3381
To install the component in Lion, please download MPEG Streamclip 1.9.3b7 beta above; inside the disk image you will find the Utility MPEG2 Component Lion: use it to install the MPEG-2 Playback Component in Lion. The original installer's disk image (QuickTimeMPEG2.dmg) is required.
The current versions of MPEG Streamclip cannot take advantage of the built-in MPEG-2 functionality of Lion. For MPEG-2 files you still need to install the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component, which is not preinstalled in Lion. (The same applies to Mountain Lion even though that has it preinstalled.) You don't have to install QuickTime 7.

What operating system? What file types?

It seems that many (if not all) of my files have been replaced by older versions. I kind find the multiple versions (listed in the Search as in the same dir) and restore them but this is strange. There is no chance that another user here has done a restor

It seems that many (if not all) of my files have been replaced by older versions. I can find the multiple version including the most recent version using the Search, however, they show up in the same directory even though Finder only shows a single copy. I am able to save and then overwrite in order to restore but this is strange. There is no chance that another user here has done any sort of system restore action (at least intentionally).

I can find the multiple version including the most recent version using the Search, however, they show up in the same directory even though Finder only shows a single copy.
In a OS Extended (HFS) file system there is no way you can have two files with identical names in the same directory.
Of course who knows what spotlight is thinking of most of the time when it does its stupid searches (get Find any File instead) and lists its results? Are you sure it is listing the same directory or do you have a backup and it is finding it there and you aren't noticing it is two different volumes?
You could also try reindixing the volume. Add it to the Spotlight system preferences Privacy and then remove it.

Traffic not showing in Notifications IOS 7. I have all turned on in notifications and location services allowed in Maps. I have been all over internet, followed set up instructions, even re-set settings (fixed weather not showing) but still no traffic?

I should clarify: I didn't know it fell out, but I check my phone often enough that there were only about 10 minutes between when I last put it in my pocket and then realized it wasn't there.
We asked everyone around us if they saw it, and like 10 people were helping us look. But my husband used Find My iPhone and the Prey app right away when we realized it was missing (again, at most 15 minutes from the last time I used it) and it was already in offline / "cannot locate" mode.

Since the iOS update all of my bookmarks have been erased! Also I am unable to add any new bookmarks! PLEASE HELP

I have the router that my ISP provided and that is connected to a airport extreme base station wirelessly
That....will not work. The AirPort Extreme must connect to your ISP provided router using a permanent, wired Ethernet cable connection.
Once you reset the AirPort Extreme back to factory default settings, make the Ethernet connection, and then reconfigure the AirPort Extreme to create a wireless network.......then......the Time Capsule will be able to wirelessly extend the AirPort Extreme wireless network.
If you do it this way, you will not be using your ISP provided wireless network at all, so you might want to consider turning off the wireless on the ISP router.....unless you really need a second wireless network for guests, or the kids, etc.

What happened to the 'more' button on the bottom of the apps store? It seems to have been replaced by the 'updates' button. I want to get the 'more' button back.

What happened to the 'more' button at the bottom of the apps store screen? It seems to have been replaced by the 'updates' button, and I want the 'more' button back.

When using the back button I keep getting the drop down box when I do not want it. For me the hold down time before the box opens is far too short.
I would be quite happy to always right click to get the drop down. Is there any way to disable this feature when using the left button or for making the delay longer?
