Firefox did not restore previous session. Is there a way to restore perhaps from cache?

Firefox crashed (v. 3.6.17) I think I inadvertently clicked Start New Session instead of Restore Session. Big mistake. Is there a way to restore at this point, perhaps using cache? I have some very important research through websites that were open. . .

Are you using Time Machine?
If you do then you can try to restore the file sessionstore.js from around that time.

    Do a malware check with a few malware scan programs.<br />
    You need to use all programs because each detects different malware.<br />

  • Is there a way to prevent AnyConnect from caching the username of the last person who connected to the VPN?

    Is there a way to prevent AnyConnect from caching the username of the last  person who connected to the VPN?

    This can be done via specifying the "RestrictPreferenceCaching" parameter as described in the Anyconnect Admin Guide here:
    By design, AnyConnect does not cache sensitive information to disk. Enabling this parameter extends this policy to any type of user information stored in the AnyConnect preferences.
    •Credentials—The user name and second user name are not cached.
    •Thumbprints—The client and server certificate thumbprints are not cached.
    •CredentialsAndThumbprints—Certificate thumbprints and user names are not cached.
    •All—No automatic preferences are cached.
    •false—All preferences are written to disk (default—behavior consistent with AnyConnect 2.3 and earlier).

  • I did the os6 update on my iphone 4 then changed to the 4s but lost my text messages due to the 4s did not have the os6, is there a way to recover them?

    I had a iphone 4, backed it up and downloaded the os6. I then activated a 4s but due to the os was not the 6 it would not download my recent backup. Is there a way to recover my text messages?

    If you install iOS 6 on the 4S, you can follow this by restoring the 4S from the iPhone 4 backup, or select Restore for the 4S which will install iOS 6 and after iOS 6 is installed, you will be prompted to restore from a backup. You will need to manually select the backup for the iPhone 4 since the backup for the 4S will be selected by default.

  • How do I manually restore a browsing session's tabs? Firefox did not reopen them after a computer freeze and shutdown.

    Last night around 4 AM I was browsing in Firefox when my laptop suddenly froze. No mouse or ctl+alt+del responsiveness, nothing, just a frozen unresponsive screen, so after waiting a few moments in vain I forced a shutdown and restart with the power button. I've done this in the past without problems, but this time when I restarted my computer Firefox did not reopen my tabs automatically, or prompt me to restore the session. This is pretty alarming as I have plenty of websites tabbed and kept open permanently that I don't know if I will ever be able to find again. Can anyone give me help in manually restoring a previous session's tabs? I assume this information is stored somewhere on my computer, for Firefox's own use.

    I suspect that Firefox doesn't store session history for private windows, but you could try rescuing all the sessionstore files in your currently active personal settings folder (also known as your Firefox profile folder) just in case.
    Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
    That should take you to the critical folder. Try copying all sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files to a different location (e.g., Documents) where there's no danger of Firefox overwriting them.
    If you check the timestamps, can you tell which one has the best chance of having your old windows and tabs? Open that one in a text editor. You may need to turn on text wrapping. If you can remember any text from the URL or title of the page you were viewing, try searching in the text to see whether you can find it. If not, the quest may be futile.

    Uncheck: [ ] "Always use private browsing mode"

  • I just recently restored from icloud but my passkeeper app did not restore.  I lost all my passwords.  is there a way to rerestore to get that info?

    Please, I am wondering if there is chance that i will be able to retreive my info.  I restored from icloud.  the app that did not restore is "passkeeper".  It's a password storage app that works really well.  Tha problem is that it did not restore. 

    Do you recall what you did? if you remove an extension through the Add-ons page or use Firefox's Reset feature, normally your passwords are preserved. Not sure what else would have been recommended.

  • You just changed Contacts in GMAIL and I cannot restore my contacts from the previous version. I followed your instructions but it did not restore close to 500

    You just changed Contacts in GMAIL and I cannot restore my contacts from the previous version. I followed your instructions but it did not restore close to 500 contacts that i have which are in the Other Contacts area.

    Hi robertsjohn125,
    Contacts are not managed in Firefox, unless you are taking about Firefox Desktop and Firefox Hello?
    Where do you manage your contacts, this might help direct you to the correct support.

  • When iam using jdownloader for dowload, the firefox did not work at any page, as like there in no internet conexion?

    When iam using jdownloader for dowload, the firefox did not work at any page, as like`` there in no internet conexion?``

    you need to check whether '''jdownloader''' is compatible with the Firefox version you are using.
    -> Tap ALT key or press F10 to show the Menu Bar
    -> go to Tools Menu -> Add-ons -> Extension section -> check the Status of '''jdownloader''' extension -> if '''an update''' is available for this add-on then install the update -> Restart Firefox and check again check the compatibility -> if it is '''GREYED with Exclamation mark''' then it is incompatible with Firefox
    Try using this extension to force compatibility.
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/
    Check and tell if its working.

  • HT201210 I updated my 3GS software from Ver. 4.0 to Ver. 5.1 but iTunes did not restore my apps.  Is there a way to retrieve them, or do I have to acquire them all over again?

    I upgraded my 3GS from s.w. ver. 4.0 to 5.1, but iTunes did not restore my apps.  Can I retrieve them somehow, o do I have to download them again individually?

    Sync from iTunes.
    Connect your iPhone to your computer.  Select iPhone under 'Devices' on iTunes left Pane, then select 'Apps' tab on the right Pane.  Make sure SYNC APPS box is checked then click the SYNC button on the lower right window.
    Alternatively, you can re-download individually from your Device

    Yes - I connected my phone to my computer / Itunes and went into the apps section, but from there I have no idea how to manage the push notifications.  I even tryied going into itunes that is installed on my phone.  I still cannot find anyplace to manage these popups.  I have also gone into settings - notifiations - and tried turning all notifications for these apps all off but that didnt work either.  Any guidance is MUCH appreciated - Im not sure where to go from here.

  • I purchased an iPhone 3 and had photos on it. Started having issues within 30 days and could replace it. Moved photos to back up on iCloud. did not restore new phone from back up how can i save the new photos and retrieve the old ones?

    I purchased an iPhone 3 and had taken some photos on it. I started having issues within 30 days and could replace it. So I created an iCloud account and  saved those photos as a back up on iCloud. I did not restore my new phone from back up because I did not realize I needed to restore and not just activitate it. How can I save the new photos, apps, and other stuff but retrieve the old photos?

    If all you want is your old photos, you could backup your new phone using iTunes, then restore it from your iCloud backup, import the old photos to your computer, then restore it from the backup your made in iTunes returning your newer data to your phone.  If you want your old photos on your phone, sync them there from your computer using iTunes.  The process would look like this:
    Connect your phone to your computer, when it appears in iTunes on the left sidebar right-click on it and select Transfer Purchases; right-click again and select Backup.
    Disconnect from your computer and go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content and Settings to return it to new
    Go through the activation setup, choosing to Restore from iCloud backup.  Make sure your phone is plugged into a charger and has access to wi-fi as this can take hours to complete.
    When complete, without connecting your phone to your computer, open iTunes and go to Preferences.  On the Devices tab check "Prevent...from syncing automatically"
    Now import the old photos to your computer (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083)
    When done, open iTunes, right-click on the name of your phone on the left sidebar and select Restore from Backup, choose the backup you made in step 1.
    Go to the Photos tab and select the photos you want to sync to your phone and sync.

  • Firefox did not launch. I downloaded new one. the icon is crossed out. how can I fix this?

    March 25 2011
    I'm on a Mac OS X (power pc)
    After restarting my computer today. Firefox did not launch. I clicked on the icon, it started to initiate and then stopped before anything happened.
    To try to fix the problem, I trashed the application and downloaded a new one. It gave me a message: "The application Firefox cannot be launched -10661."
    I retried the download and the second time, the Firefox application icon has been crossed out. That is it has a circle with a slash over it. Same message comes up.

    Sorry, Firefox 4 is not available for PowerPC Macs. You can re-install the previous version from here:
    http://www.firefox.com/all-older.html
    Or you can find an unofficial version of Firefox 4 for PowerPC here: http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/

    The current version do not support FF 18 so the issue is urgent
    Thanks

    I talked to the Addons people, and apparently your add-on was rejected several weeks ago. They said to read the email you received from them for those reasons. I'm locking this thread as this is a Firefox support forum, not an extension dev support site.
