All my bookmarks and bookmark bar entries were gone when I installed Mountain Lion on my IMac. When I installed in on my two MB Pros, they carried over without a problem. How can I retrieve them? Thanks.

Make an archive copy from one of the MBP (File>Export Bookmarks). You may not need it, but if things sync the wrong way on iCloud, you may lose them on all your devices.
Then check out iCloud on the iMac. Is your stuff on iCloud.com? Maybe try logging out and back in again.

I can't use the Norton Toolbar on Firefox 4.0 because it says they're not compatable... how can i get them to work?

The Norton toolbar and the last Firefox i had worked fine together, however, when i updated Firefox, as the information was transferring, it told me that I could no longer use the Norton toolbar because they weren't compatible. It said this even though both of them are updated.

Sorry Tony but that is a chicken-*! response!
I just spent 2 hours getting my system back to 3.6 using your instructions. In the end I had to find the last download of 3.6 in my archived files to make it happen. No Firefox 3.6.x file could be found on the Mozilla or Firefox sites contrary to your instructions.
I deleted all the "extensions" like you suggested. It would have been very helpful if Firefox had stopped me before the installation of 4.0 proceeded to explain the "real" consequences of not having my Norton 4.0 toolbar.
I have been very happy with Firefox for the past 5-6 years but now you have given me a good reason to go research other browsers like Google Chrome.
IMHO it was * poor planning on Firefox's part for this launch!

I recently uploaded 10.8, but I have a number of VALUABLE old files which I can no longer read because "power PC applications are no longer supported. How can I retrieve them?

Here is a post I assembled for another with a similar problem:
Unfortunately you got caught up in the minor miracle of Rosetta. Originally licensed by Apple when it migrated from the PowerPC CPU platform that it had used from the mid-1990's until the Intel CPU platform in 2006, Rosetta allowed Mac users to continue to use their library of PPC software transparently in emulation.
However, Apple's license to continue to use this technology expired with new releases of OS X commencing with Lion (and now Mountain Lion). While educational efforts have been made over the last 6 years, the fact is that Rosetta was SO successful that many users were caught unaware UNTIL they upgraded to Lion or Mountain Lion.
Workarounds:
1. If your Mac will support it, restore OS X Snow Leopard;
2. If your Mac will support it, partition your hard drive or add an external hard drive and install Snow Leopard into it and use the "dual-boot" method to choose between your PPC software or Lion/Mt. Lion;
3. Upgrade to an Intel compatible versions of your software, or find alternatives that will open your data files;
3. Install Snow Leopard (with Rosetta) into Parallels:

Full Snow Leopard installation instructions here:
http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1365439
NOTE: STEP ONE of the instructions must currently be completed on a Snow Leopard or Lion Mac and the resulting modified Snow Leopard.cdr install file can then be moved over to your Mountain Lion Mac for completion of the remaining steps.
NOTE 2: Computer games with complex, 3D or fast motion graphics make not work well or at all in virtualization.

Just a guess here, but when you are in Contacts, look to the top where it says Groups. Could yours be set to Hide All Contacts?

I've just upgraded Aperture and seem to have lost all the folders and albums. How can I retrieve them?

When I opened Aperture a dialogue box appeared suggesting I upgrade. The upgrade was done, and now all the folders and albums previously in Aperture have disappeared. How can I retrieve them?

. The upgrade was done, and now all the folders and albums previously in Aperture have disappeared. How can I retrieve them?
When you opened your new Version of Aperture you probably created a new, empty Aperture Library.
Do you remember where your original Aperture Library is located? Usually it resides in your "Pictures" folder, and is named something.aplibrary. If you do not remember where it is, search with Spotlight for ".aplibrary".
Quit Aperture, if it is running, then select your old Aperture Library and double click it to open it. This will launch Aperture on your correct library, and you should see all your projects and albums again.

Some of my notes disappeared. How can I retrieve them?

Some of my notes disappeared without even erasing them. How can I retrieve them?

I'm afraid to say that all of my notes disappeared yesterday, on my iPhone and iPad because they were connected by iCloud. I guess they are in the great blue yonder somewhere. The annoying thing is that I am a songwriter and use notes to jot down lines as they come into my head.and suffice to say that I have lost a great deal of material. To make matters worse, I haven't even updated my phone to ios6, only my iPad not wanting to put all of my eggs in one basket so to speak.

Restore the library to a backup copy from just before the problem occurred. Otherwise you'll have to reflag them.

My mac won't read my external harddrive's videos that I took with my Nikon. Half the videos won't play, and those are .avi files. WHY won't they play anymore and how can i retrieve them?

What exactly is your problem? Is it, (a) your Mac doesn't read your external disk, or, (b) you can't retrieve your videos, or, (c) you can't play them, or, (d) you were able to play them at one point, but not any more.
What version of Mac OS X are you using, what app are you trying to play your videos with, what happens when you do, and what error messages, if any, do you get?

I updated my iphone all my contacts and photos are gone. How can I retrieve them?

I updated my iphone all my contacts and photos are gone. How can I retrieve them?

Have you failed to use the device as designed?
If using the iPhone as designed, contacts are synced with a supported application on the computer or a cloud service. Pictures taken with the device would be copied off to the computer on a regular basis.
If you have been using the device as designed, simply sync the content back.
If you have not been using the device as designed, you can try restoring from the most recent backup. However, if that does not restore them, they are gone.
