Firefox just vanished from my mac! What happened?

The Mac Book Pro was turned off and when it was turned on the whole Firefox program and any history was gone! completely wiped from the computer, not in trash... nowhere!

I assume this is on Windows?
If you go to the Start menu, search box or Run box, and type or paste the following, then press Enter, does Firefox come up?
firefox.exe
If that works, you might just need to create a new shortcut on the desktop for Firefox. One way would be to go into the Start menu > All Programs, find Mozilla Firefox, right-click > Copy it, then on the desktop, right-click>Paste to copy the shortcut there.
Or if you mean you want a shortcut directly to your email website, there's a different way to do that (more info if needed).

Reinstall the software properly. Migration is useless due to the specifics of the activation system.

I bought a HD and the Itunes Stores say that the movie (Pretty Women) has Itunes Extras. Why I can not find it? It is a mistake from Apple? What happen if I buy the movie because the Extras and now I can not watch it? I have an Ipad last generation.

What version of iOS do you have on your iPad (Settings > General > About > Version), and is it connected to wifi ?
From Buy and play movies with iTunes Extras - Apple Support :
Here’s what you need to stream the new iTunes Extras:
Mac using OS X Mavericks v10.9.3 or later and iTunes 11.3 or later
PC using iTunes 11.3 or later
Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation or later) using Apple TV software 6.2 or later
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iOS 8 or later (You need to connect to Wi-Fi. Extras won't appear if you're connected to a cellular network.)
An active Internet connection
You can use the steps below on your Apple TV, Mac, PC, or iOS device for any purchased, HD movie that features Extras:
On your Apple TV, select Movies, then select your movie to see the Extras menu. Extras aren't available from the Computer tile on Apple TV (Home Sharing).
On your Mac or PC, open iTunes and go to the Movies section in your iTunes library. Double-click your movie. If there's no Internet connection, the Extras menu will be skipped. The movie will immediately play if you already downloaded it.
On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, tap the Videos app, then tap your movie. If you're connected to the Internet via Wi-Fi, the Extras menu will appear.

If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore.
If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software. If the errors persist on another computer and known-good USB cable, the device may need service.

Does it still charge if you use the wal adapter? If yes, let it charge for about 15min, then connect in recovery mode to your computer, explained here: iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to restore
If this does not help, contact Apple to get it serviced: Apple - Support - Service Answer Center

Just updated iMovie today. What happened to the Ripple transition?

Just updated iMovie today. What happened to the Ripple transitions?

I had the same problem. After about and hour with Apple care and several different people, I was told Apple eliminated the Ripple transition as part of the 9.0.6 update. It's gone...no way to get it back in 9.0.6. I was just finishing a project that used a bunch of this transition, so I found a work around. I used Time Machine to revert back to the old version of iMovie (9.0.4). When asked if I wanted to replace or keep both files, I elected to keep both files. I now have a version of iMovie called iMovie (Original). That still has the Ripple effect. Seems to be working fine also. I can't image why Apple did this. I left feedback in the feedback forum. Recommend we all do it so they will place the Ripple back. This is the first time I've really used iMovie for a big project. I've discovered I'm probably better off with something like Final Cut or Adobe Elements. That's what I know. Hope it helps.

Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!

Swapping drive from old Mac to new Mac - What happens to boot camp/Windows?

Hello,
The HDD that was in my Late 2008 Macbook will be going into a Late 2008 Macbook Pro with discrete GPU. The HDD already had Bootcamp installed, with Windows XP, and all of my programs.
I understand that OSX may not boot up right away with the new Mac, and I may have to run the install disks from the new Mac, and it should keep the applications/files/settings intact from the previous installation (thank you forums for telling me this)
What happens to bootcamp/Windows? I'd like for all of my applications and files to remain in tact. The partition and file system should be fine, but will I run into any issues since I'm moving to slightly different hardware? Will I have to reinstall the boot camp drivers? Reinstall of Windows?
I don't mind reinstalling Windows or Boot Camp drivers if necessary, but my priority is to keep all of the files and applications intact upon re installation.
Thanks,
Jonathan

Unfortunately my older MacBook is no longer accessible (long story) and I have no other Macs to test/clone this one on until this Tuesday when the Pro arrives.
I have the XP discs here. I guess in short, I'll just have to wait and see how XP behaves and try to fix as needed.
I was running 10.5.7 on the MacBook. I don't know what the Pro will ship with (its a Refurb from Apple Store) - http://store.apple.com/us/product/FB471LL/A?mco=MjE0NjE5MA
Thanks for your help.

Mac book pro will not start up. Charging light is on, but no response from computer. What happened?

The Mac Book Pro was fine, and then just stopped working. I connect the power source, and the light is on as if it is charging. However, when I try to turn the laptop on, nothing happens. There is no response whatsoever. Any ideas what happened and what I need to do?

Examine this support article for possible solutions:

If no success, a trip to an Apple store genius bar is the best recourse.
Ciao.

Where is the app I just bought from the Mac App Store?

Hello there!!
My name is Dani G. I use the Pixelmator app a lot to make book covers, banners, story ads, and some other graphics for people on Wattpad, and I always use Pixelmator. When my 30-day-trial ended, I bought it from the App Store with my App Store gift card, and my money even showed that I bought it.
But when I installed it to my Mac, it just showed that it was downloading, then the app would disappear from my dock. I stared, shocked, so I tried looking for it in my Finder. I couldn't find it anywhere, and I kept trying to install it again and again.
I even deleted the old Pixelmator trial app I had, and it still wouldn't show up.
Whys is this happening and how can I find my purchase on my computer to start using it?

Try purchasing a free app from the Mac App Store and see what happens. Essentially it needs access to the Applications folder, so if you have experienced any permission issues with that folder, you may want to consider running Disk Utility and repairing the permissions for Macintosh HD.
If you think it's Dock-related, try dragging another item to your dock...either another application from Applications, or a folder right next to the Trash (NOT in the Trash).
Start with the basics, restart the iMac and check your Purchases in the MAS to see if Pixelmator is listed.
