  • Whenever my new iMac updates or is shutdown, I lose all the Bookmarks that I've created in Safari are gone.  Anyone know how to prevent this?

    Several times now I have created a Bookmark list in Safari but everytime the iMac updates the software, or I shut the computer down, I lose all the Bookmarks.  Only the pre-installed Bookmarks remain.  Does anyone know how to keep this from happening?

    Try resetting PRAM.

    You can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    You can trash Firefox 4.0 then re-install Firefox 3.6, it will use your existing bookmarks, passwords etc
    Mozilla are working to prevent Mac users with non-compatible systems from getting the notification about Firefox 4, and also not displaying the "Download Firefox 4" button on http://www.mozilla.com

  • So did I just lose ALL my photos?

    I moved everything from Iphoto to an External.. then deleted the Iphoto trash... I go into the external and there are NO PICTURES IN ANY OF THE FOLDERS I TRANSFERRED INTO!!!! did i just lose ALL my family photos!!!!!!!

    Exactly what did you do? Exactly what indicates to you that you have no photos?
    Here are my standard instructions for doing this - note the bold emphisis
    Do you have a backup? If you do not you will lose your photos someday even if you have not this time.
    Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
    And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
    And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

  • Firefox does not open at all since I updated to version 3.6.4, not even when I re-download it.

    Firefox crashes (does not open at all) since I updated to version 3.6.4. Not even when I re-downloaded it several times. Now, even the old version doesn't start. I have a Mac OS X version 10.6.4. It doesn't show that pop up window that explains why it crashed. It just stops and quits.

    Hello everyone.
    Hopefully this support article is what you need:
    https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox+will+not+start
    In any case, you may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
    If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.

  • Since upgrading to FF 4, I have constant crashes (updating graphics drivers did not help). now all my bookmarks are gone. When I try to restore them, I get error message: "Unable to process the backup file".

    Since I "upgraded" to FF 4, I have constant crashes (I tried updating my graphics drivers--it did not help) and now all of my bookmarks have disappeared. When I try to restore them, I get this error message "Unable to process the backup file". I have lost years of bookmarks...please help.
    I am using Windows XP, SP 3 if that matters.

    I am also unable to restore any of the backups of the bookmarks, both automatic backups and two backups that I created manually. Since I was able to restore backups before, and since no changes have occurred to these backup files, the problem must be with Firefox.
    Right before my bookmarks disappeared, FF crashed and I accidentally started FF 3.5. When I saw what I did, I ended the Firefox process and started FF 4. That's when all my bookmarks were gone and I discovered I couldn't retrieve any backups. I did note that an add-on was updated when I restarted FF. Maybe that's the problem. Does FF have a Safe mode?

  • Why did I lose all my bookmarks I accumulated on Firefox?

    Firefox is my browser - I accumulated many Bookmarks of websites I frequent often - my PC was not functioning as it should and so I switched browsers to google chrome. When I came back to Firefox later, all my bookmarks were gone -I lost them all, even the links to my email boxes. I am still struggling to find some of them. What to do to prevent this from happening again?

    Did you previously uninstall Firefox and have removed personal data?
    If that is the case then you lost the bookmarks.
    Otherwise you should still have the Firefox profile folder with your personal data.

  • HT1349 im not using my regular computer - it's in storage- will I lose all the bookmarks, contacts etc that are stored on that computer?

    I cannot get to  my regular computer as it is in storage, and therefore cannot back anything up. If I change over to icloud using someones else's computer will I lose all bookmarks, contacts and all things on the computer in storage?

    You have a question for the iCloud support folks, I would imagine.
    We handle questions about the Time Capsule, AirPort Extreme and AirPort Express in this area. If you have a question about one of those products.....we can probably help.

  • I'm changing my broadband provider - will I lose all my bookmarks?

    This may be a silly question, but will I lose all my Firefox bookmarks when I change my internet service? I currently have Time Warner digital service, but am moving out of state and will likely have Comcast as my future provider. Thanks.

    No, the bookmarks are all saved to the Firefox Profile on your comp, service provider will make no difference.
    Only thing you'll lose is any unsaved email and contacts if you used Time Warner's email service. Its always better to keep you email ISP agnostic by going with Google Mail, Yahoo mail, Mail.com etc so you don't have the hassle when switching ISPs in search of a better price.

  • All of bookmarks from previous version are gone

    in updating to version 6 screen said to remove previous version before continuing. Complied and now all of the research contained within the bookmarks are gone. I have performed everything advised on this site and the bookmarks can not be located.

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

  • Why did I lose all my bookmarks, settings and add ons in the recent Aurora update?

    When I was using Aurora it happened to crash so I restarted as i normally would when this happens, but when it restarted it was a new version (Firefox Developer Edition) and not a single bookmark, folder, add on etc had remained (not to mention my previous session that had quite a few tabs some trivial but some a bit more important and ALL of my history was gone). When I tried to go to Sync and see if that would restore anything the option to put in my recovery key was nowhere to be found although in the Sync FAQ it mentioned this older way of using sync could still be used. So I made an account with email and password and still could not find a way to sync anything I lost. I searched around the FAQs and could not find a resource to help with my issue.
    I've been a loyal user of Firefox (since 2005) and I will continue to be but this really caught me off guard as even in previous updates I never had an issue like this.
    Any help with what to do would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

    hello mmendo18, the firefox aurora release channel has been converted into the firefox developer edition. by default it starts with a freshly created profile. in order to get back to your old data, please refer to [[Recover lost bookmarks on Firefox Developer Edition]]

  • Why didn't you warn me that I would lose all my bookmarks when I updated my iPad software?

    I just upgraded my iPad to the new software and when I went to Safari, all of my bookmarks are gone. Why the **** didn't I get a warning about this before the update?  Every time I update software on my iPhone or iPad, something gets f***ed up. For a company that makes such good toys, why can't they update their software half as good as Microsoft?

  • I have flashplayer which works in Internet Explorer but not some sites using Firefox. I refreshed but no change and i DID lose all my bookmarks. Help!

    Listening to BBC Radio was possible until today but now in Firefox I'm told to install Flashplayer. i have tried that 3 times but with no effect. The same with videos on BBC and some other sites but on others it works. If I use Internet Explorer everything is fine. So there is clearly an interface problem with Firefox which has only just started. I tried refreshing believing that it would retain all my favourites and other information/settings but most were lost. I'm 73 not technical so a simple solution if possible please.

    Look on your desktop. Do you see a folder called; '''Old Firefox?'''
    '''https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/recovering-important-data-from-an-old-profile'''
    '''https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/back-and-restore-information-firefox-profiles'''
    These can't get your data back, but will help in the future.
    These add-ons can be a great help by backing up and restoring Firefox
