Firefox update 3.6.15 seems to have broken all addons

Since I update to the most recent firefox (3.6.15), all my addons are broken. In the addon tab, they say that they're enabled, but I can't click on the preferences buttons of any of them. Some of them display a green exclamation point, but the ones that don't are still broken. At the top of the addons tab, it says "Restart Firefox to complete your changes" but if I restart, it still says that and it didn't update them.
I've tried updating several of them manually, but they don't update and they don't work. The addons don't appear anywhere in my browser at all; for instance if it's a toolbar, there's no toolbar and no option to get the toolbar when I right click. If it's a button on my main bar, it's gone, and when I go to "customize" the button is still not available.
I've googled this a bunch and am not seeing anyone with my problem.

You might want to add more details in "Computer Model Information" lines.
Is there any source of interference nearby?
The Mac Pro - does it run on a dedicated line / circuit? UPS and/or line conditioner? It shouldn't be putting a real tax on the circuit, unless it is shared with a lot of equipment. They've been known to push the limits for some.
I've seen more than a couple threads reporting problems with ViewSonic (gladly my LCD VGA is older and seems safe).
Are they running off X1900 Radeon?
Sometimes a system ships and even DIMMs can be loosened, maybe video card needs to be reseated?
Hopefully it is just a loose cable somewhere.

After the last update of itunes I seem to have lost all my music (Cds that I had downloaded into itunes) except the once I had purchased from the itunes store. Can anyone help? Do you know what might have happened?

After the last update of itunes I seem to have lost all the music that I had downloaded from my Cds. It was a lot of music! All I still have is the music that I had purchased in the itunes store. And before you asked. No, I did not have a backup. Never got around to do it.
Does anyone of you have an idea if and how I can maybe get my music back?
Your help is very much appreciated. Would it help if I recover my computer from an earlier date?? I am not even sure if I make sense here.

Hi - I seem to have a similar problem. I was prompted to update to iPhoto 11 yesterday (don't know why yesterday, I'm in iPhoto all the time). So I followed the instructions, library updated, all existing events and albums are there. I uploaded some more pictures and created a few new albums and did some new year spring cleaning, moving stuff around etc. And I started making a calendar.
I've opened it up today, my calendar is still there as are all the new events, but the pictures are empty outlines. If I open up a picture I just get the "!" but I can still see the thumbnails showing in the slider in the bottom - I don't know if that means the source files must still be there somewhere, or if it just means it captured thumbnails yesterday.
I've gone into it via "show package contents" and there just don't seem to be any masters for an upload yesterday. I also just had a look in the last import folder, because of a comment from someone above. As I scrolled down through the folder the images were there and literally disappeared in front of me - by which I mean, the thumbnails were there as I scrolled down and then would turn into empty outlines...!
All my old folders are still there, thankfully (although they're of course the ones that are also all safely back up).
Although I have a timecapsule, my photo library is too big to keep on my hard drive, so I keep it on an external drive - so it only gets backed up when I do it manually (thanks Apple for that, I will never understand why it was designed to work - or not work - that way). So if the pictures have been lost then they are gone for good which is super-frustrating (I just got back from South Korea and was in the middle of sorting out all my shots from that trip). It seems that this can only have happened because of the update - I should have known better than to have pressed yes.
If you have any ideas, I'd be most grateful!
Regards

Update from apple software - seems to have broken displays

I have just taken delivery of my mac pro (felt like christmas) - ran through the setup all of 6 minutes (eat your heart out Bill) - ran software update as it popped up to get it up to latest settings etc..
now monitors do not work they flash on and off and display signal not detected every three to four seconds then come on then go black etc.. and it continues
they setup from the base installation was sweet and this only started after the update ran and rebooted
i can't seem to find any detaisl on a rollback feature or after zapping pram and disconnecting everything and rebooting still no change
any ideas
monitors are benq 22" in res 1680X1050 and as i said they were working brilliantly till the update ran
any help appreciated - think it might be re install of system software to get it back to original settings

Update seems to have broken openbox theming.

I updated about 2 hours ago and it seems to have broken a lot of my window manager.
I use openbox as a standalone window manager and have had no issues so far.
I update every few days and today caused the resizing-freeze issue, so I downgraded the suggested packages which fixed that.
However I have another issue with theming.
Programs such as firefox, thunderbird, thunar etc... all have the correct theme. However I use some gnome programs such as rhythmbox and nautilus and neither of these are themeing correctly as well as terminator and all appear to have the default gnome theme.
I use obconf and lxappearence for themeing normally, however these seem to have no effect.
I've done a fair amount of searching and googling and am now very tired and am going to bed.
If anyone has any advice it would be much appreciated. If I am being stupid in my sleep deprived state please feel free to point it out XD.

Hi all. I'm also running Openbox and have done the following so far;
1. Installed gnome-themes-standard. Created a new folder ~/.config/gtk-3.0/; Created the file in the folder "settings.ini" with the following code;
[Settings]
gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme = true
gtk-theme-name = Adwaita
gtk-fallback-icon-theme = gnome
Thanks to the info on the thread here
2. Checked out the post here. Downloaded the tar of Adwaita from this.page and did the usual "makepkg -s" magic and rebooted.
What I'm now getting is nm-applet in tint2 with the dark theme of Adwaita which is great but doesn't really match my dark theme axiomd but it's better than before.
What I'm wondering is how to manage this in lxappearance, change font etc?? If I select the theme Adwaita it's a light theme? Having looked in the directory there is both gtk-2.0 (i think this is the light one?) and gtk-3.0.
I've also noticed that it is affecting rhythmbox; slow to load and the status icon setting in the plugins is missing, so you close the GUI and find the app quits rather than the previous behaviour where it would close but the notification icon would still run in tint2 enabling one click control access to the GUI again.
I appreciate this is obviously a new implementation and will take a bit of time to learn but any tips from those in the know would be great!? TIA.

My gen 3 iPod Touch seems to have duplicated all my music since updating to IOS 5 so that it now only holds half as much. What can I do about it? I'm using the same iTunes library with OS 10.6 and all software up to date.

Is the camera damaged? Could be a hardware problem.
Try:
Close the Camera app in the multitasking bar, then try again.
Restart/Reset/Restore your iPod. In that order.

While I was updating my ipod touch there was an error and it said my ipod needed to be restored so I did that but I seemed to have lost all the photos I had on my ipod. Is there anyway to get them back?

- Try restoring from a backup that include the photos. See the restore topic of:
iOS: How to back up
- If you use PhotoStream you should be able to get the last 30 days worth from your PhotoStream. See:
iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer

I'd suggest being more specific. What do you mean by "it seems to have thrown windows out of the system?" The Windows virtual machines should still be in the Virtual Machines folder in your documents folder. Are they there? What version of Fusion have you updated from and to?
You might also consider raising your question in the VMware Fusion forum: http://communities.vmware.com/community/vmtn/desktop/fusion?view=discussions&sta rt=0.

HT4910 I seem to have deleted all my films on my iPad and can't find them on my pc or iCloud. How do I get them back

Whilst updating my iPad I seem to have deleted my downloaded films from iTunes. They have also gone form my PC and nowhere to be found. How do I locate and download them again?

Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not available in all countries; apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this). Movies currently available in the USA only. Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later. Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list, or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid.

I seem to have lost all of my playlists and more than half my songs. How do I get them back? Dont know what I did wrong? Please Help

I seem to have lost all my original playlists and more than half my songs. How do I get them back, where did I go wrong?
If I was to press "restore" does this wipe everything off my library? I always thought that you could never loose songs? That they were always stored somewhere
in there. Please help,

If those tabs aren't in History > Recently Closed Tabs or Windows then they are probably lost.
You can try to search them in the History if you haven't bookmarked them.
Using the "Show my windows and tabs from last time" setting is a more reliable way to restore session data.

My email seems to have lost all the saved messages

Email stated it was updating earlier. Now it seems to have lost all my old messages.

It's a Finder feature, related to Quick Look. You can hit the space bar in the file list to get a preview.
If that doesn't work, you may have an issue witha preference file or similar. I find rebuilding the launch databse works quite well resilving tis kind of thing, as does trashing Finder preferences

I had to erase my data to upgrade my iPhone software from an older version. I backed up first, but seem to have lost all my notes. Does anyone know how retrieve my old notes?

I had to erase my data to upgrade my iPhone software from an older version. I backed up first, but seem to have lost all my notes. Does anyone know how retrieve my old notes?

Is this the note you are referring to:
Not sure if this can help you.
I checked my notes. They are stored here:
MacintosHD/Users/MYHOME/Library/Containers/com.apple.notes/Data/Library/CoreData /ExternalRecords/
xxxxxserie.of.numbers.probably.yours.are.different/IMAPNote/_records/0/
If I go tot this window on finder and enter Time Machine I can go back and find old notes...
If so, am I doing this on my new hard drive on on the time machine? When I do this on the time machine, what is "my home"? Also, I am unable to find "containers".
If I go to users/jeff/library, then I see components, compositions, contextual, etc, but not containers.
Thanks

Numbers seems to have broken

I was using Numbers this morning -- no major problem except that it didn't properly recover from page view (leaving junk on the right of the table).
This afternoon it seems to have broken. ALL my files, including the one from this morning have mostly blank cells. The contents seem to be there - if I click a cell the contents show up in the formula bar (or whatever it's called). And if I double-click to edit the contents reappear. But then go away again as soon as I finish with the cell.
Some (but not all) of the header cells in Gray Headers style show up, and some are simply a pair of faint white squares at the end of the text string. Check boxes show up OK.
Oh, and if I double click on a date it shows up for editing with the year as 00002010.
This is very distressing. I have a lot of data locked up in Numbers and as of now, all is unusable.
What's going on?

Thanks for the help. Actually I should have mentioned that I tried that (I've been using Macs since my Mac IIfx in 1990 so I picked up a few tricks) as well as restarting. The problem remains.
In the meantime I've tried opening my files (remotely) with another machine. No problems. It's local.
Next I'll try reinstalling Numbers, if I can find the disks

i tried transferring my iphoto library from my old macbook onto my new macbook pro (via external hard drive), but when i open the new iphoto, it seems to have transferred ALL images ever used on my old macbook. so i tried to just delete all those images so i could try a different approach to transferring, but the new iphoto won't let me do anything and every time i try to delete anything it crashes (since the image amount is so high). please help!!
MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2), iphoto '11, version 9.4.2

To move an iPhoto Library to a new machine:
Link the two Macs together: there are several ways to do this: Wireless Network,Firewire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet, or even just copy the Library to an external HD and then on to the new machine...
But however you do choose to link the two machines...
Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
Then launch iPhoto. That's it.
This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.
