How can I restore corrupt form history and prevent duplicate entries?

After having used 3.6.2, I recently upgraded to the latest version because I was getting tired of sites not working properly. For the most part, the transition has gone smoothly, but I lost all of my form history. It's not a huge deal, but having it was incredibly convenient for me. Instead of continuing to make all new form history entries, is it possible to use the old ones again? I have the original formhistory.sqlite file, but whenever I try to use it, it gets renamed to formhistory.sqlite.corrupt and Firefox creates a new file. Is the original too old and incompatible or is there something I can do?
Also, I'm having a bit of an issue with Firefox regularly creating duplicate form history entries. For instance, when opening the list for a Username text field, "ZombieToast" will be listed twice. I delete the duplicates when I come across them, but they keep sprouting up and I don't know why.

hello, the duplicate form entries are a bug in firefox 23 and will be fixed in the upcoming version.

I recently downloaded a program and have now lost Firefox's "awesome bar" which has been replaced by the program's own search bar. How can I restore the "awesome bar" and get rid of the other search bar?

I recently downloaded Bearshare.com which then overrode my Firefox "awesome bar". Now when I enter a search item in the search box at the upper right of my screen, I'm automatically shunted to this new search bar where I have to re-enter my search item and click return before it will begin a search. Previously, the Firefox "awesome bar" opened automatically together with my home page and I had the choice of searching using it or the default search box at the upper right of my screen. I 'uninstalled' Bearshare but it now continues to come up when I search using the right hand top search box , forcing me to use it instead of the search box at the upper right of my screen. How do I get rid of it completely so that only the "awesome bar" appears as an extra tab when I open Firefox browser?

First, some clarification:
* The location bar (often called the "awesome bar") is the larger bar on the left that shows you the address of the page you are currently viewing. As you type in the location bar it searches your history and bookmarks for matches.
* The search bar is the smaller one on the right. It typically displays an icon of whichever search engine is currently selected and may display search suggestions as you type in it.
It sounds like you are referring to the search bar rather than the location bar. You can change search engines for the search bar by clicking on the icon on the left edge of the search bar and choosing a different one. You can also choose "Manage Search Engines" to remove ones you aren't interested in using.
It also sounds like Bearshare might have changed your homepage in Firefox. To restore that you will need to open the preferences menu (click Tools > Preferences), go to the General tab (first on the top left), and click "Restore to Default".

How can I restore corrupted Dreamweaver without original CD ?

I have Dreamweaver CS5 on an iMac desktop using 10.10.2. I am getting error messages when trying to open Dreamweaver and then it quits. I recently moved and mislaid my original CD. Unfortunately I did not keep a copy of my serial number. I tried restoring from Time Machine, but that didn't work. Adobe has no phone support any more. How can I remedy this situation?

Sounds like you've got a CS5 Design Premium Suite.
Download the CS5 Design Premium suite and install only Dreamweaver (if that's all you want).
Download CS5 products
During installation you can select which components of the Suite you want to install: one, some or all.
The same serial number works for all software titles in that suite so you can install the others later if you wish.

How can I get rid of "History and Bookmarks" section from the search history drop down menu in safari 6.0.2?

Let's just say I have saved bookmarks of things that i do NOT want my friends to see when they use my computer occasionally. I know they could go and find these bookmarks anyway in the bookmarks menu but they dont snoop around my computer. i would rather it not just pop up when they go to search for something or type in a webpage. If there is no way to customize what shows up in the drop down menu for search results then that is something apple overlooked. Not everybody wants things all in one place. Whats the point of deleting search history and website history if its just going to show the certain things you have bookmarked? Any solution to this would be appreciated. One solution i thought would work was disabling search from suggesting, but i guess that only supresses the webpages not the url/search bar. Oh and this is for safari 6.0.2 please dont give me outdated advice.
Thanks

How can I restore my purchased games and music from a external hdd backup?

Hi!
I have formatted my iPod and reinstalled Windows. Before doing that, I have made a copy of my entire iTunes folder on a external hard drive. Now I cannot restore my games by simply copying (my thought) "iPod Games Library.itl" file and "iPod Games" folder into the new iTunes folder under my Music. With the music I didn't trid because I dont't have much space right now.
In my purchase history I see I cannot re-download stuff.. Only "report a problem"/"done".
I know that a better option for backup would have been a CD backup from iTunes, but now I cannot go back in time to do it.
So, could you help me, please?

I would try opening itunes using a blank library and try this - just drag one game (one with the ipg file extension) into v8 and see if it shows up under applications.
Don't sync your ipod to it, though - you'll probably lose all game info/stats by doing this. This is just a test to see if itunes can see the file as an ipod game.

How can I restore all my apps and pictures on my iPhone from iCloud?

I recently lost my iphone and got a new one. Can anybody help me how to retrieve all my apps and pictures from my old iPhone to my new one. I backed it up on iCloud. Thank you!
Edited: I backed it up and I only retrieved my contacts and music playlist.

Backing up does not restore anything, it simply makes a backup of the content on the device.
I suspect you intended that you synced the device as this would put contacts and media from iTunes back on the device.

How can I restore my old history & bookmarks if I didn't run backup before re-installing a new clean OS? I've been using Firefox for 7 years as default, help me

Hello,
I believe that what I'm asking is simple & clear. Do you or do you not store user data backups on your servers? I've been using Firefox, as the default browser, for over 7 years. Naturally, I had to upgrade my
pc's & operating systems several times through this period. Every time I use a new device & of course a
new OS, I normally lose my old data (History & Bookmarks).
If you keep records or backups of old users' data, there will be no problem & I could restore all my old data
following your instructions. If not, which is probably the case, I'd like to suggest you consider developing or
at least put more stress on running backup before uninstalling & re-installing a new OS for the users to pay more attention to this issue.
That's all, thanks.
Regards,
Aly Hamed

hello aly, mozilla doesn't keep any of your history or bookmarks on its severs without your expressed consent (would be a horrible privacy policy otherwise) - there's the [[Use Sync to share your Firefox bookmarks, passwords and more with Firefox for mobile|firefox sync feature]] which will store parts of your private data encrypted in the cloud, in case you've used that in the past you'd need 3 components to restore this data: your username, password & the recovery key...
otherwise i don't know of any way to get to your old data if you haven't kept any other backup of some sorts - unfortunately most of us are reminded to the importance of backups when it's already too late :-/
in regard to your suggestion: during the firefox uninstall procedure your personal data isn't removed per default, so it would still be there after a reinstall of the application - you'd have to explicitly check the option to clear this kind of data in the uninstaller. some general information on where to look if you want to backup your firefox data in the future is available here: [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]

How can i print a form off and for it to look exactly how it looks on the web

I have just labelled my "SUBMIT" button as "PRINT FORM" as the form I have created is a Delivery and Packing Note and I need to share this with the production department so that they can fill out the relevant details at the time of packing, hit the print button and hand it to the driver who will then basically hand the printed version over to the buyer for them to check the delivery and sign for it in the field space provided. That is my desire but, there does not seem to be an option within the form creation suite to allow for this sort of printing preference.
Am I missing something? Please help.@

Start by getting this form to draw on the screen.
Then you'll just the replace the screen Graphics object with the printer Graphics object

How can I restore corrupted purchase download for my second Apple ID without 90-day ban

Hello!
The common thing leading to problems with Apple ID — I changed the country.
I have a lot of software / music that I bought in AppStore/iTunes for my previous country, however recently my previous credit card was, say, gone, and I don't want to revive it for the moment. I've paid a dept (it was hard to find a way to pay a dept in a country where there's no gift cards, but it is another story) and decided to change the card to None not to mess with new debts (and it works).
I've searched through a lot of forums here and I found that it is pain to change country for an existing Apple ID (it leads to problems updating software not accessible in other country AppStore), so I've created another, new Apple ID and attached it to a new credit card.
Few days ago I've purchased several music albums with the new Apple ID and it started downloading it to my iPad, but the connection in the end was bad (I've started downloading with Wi-Fi and some time later forgot this fact and moved out of the hotspot, while songs continued to be downloaded), and iTunes downloaded just several songs from some albums and haven't downloaded several complete albums, while removing them from download list (and I am sure that I haven't cancelled them manually!). Now I have just parts of the albums, but when I try to re-downoad them from iTunes, it says that my Apple ID will be blocked to be used on this device for 90 days if I will do it — Agree / Cancel. So I cancel all the time.
I don't want to make this new Apple ID primary on any device since I use truly a lot of software and listen a lot of music I bought for an old account and I have no such in new one. However, I can say, "let's this iPad be the source for the new music I've bought and I will listen the old music on some other Apple device I have" (but what if I'd have none?), but there seems to be no way to do it, since I will also lose all previous software on this iPad if I will make this ID primary.
Auto-downloading is totally off for both accounts, however, as I understand, it is an issue with iTunes in the Cloud.
Is there a way to resolve it or it is just another post of pain? I actually bought music for both accounts, it seems to be something illegal with the fact I can not download it without limitations.

Not so. All my computers are bound (authorized) to the old Apple ID and I don't want to change it because, as I get it, then I will lose all the software I need (I mean, updates/re-downloads and that stuff) for 90 days (among with music I previously bought, but it is secondary). Also I can not authorize any other computer for my id (unless their owners are not my enemies ) because they will be in the very same situation.
Re-downloading music/purchases second time (and iTunes treats that failed one as the first one, like "you got these files", while actually I'm not, for all devices where I login with new Apple ID) requires authorizing computer or device to the new Apple ID which sequentially bans all re-downloading for 90 days.
I know everyone is tired here of posts like this one, I see there are a lot of similar discussions, and I also think that it is required to do something to solve al least most of problems of guys who change countries and this strange re-download restriction (I understand it's about security and downloads fee). So it is discussed a lot here and may be something changes, and anyway if not, my post will do not add something new to it. I have a single problem I hope will be resolved, because I bought this stuff and I can not use this stuff (even if I'd be stupid enough to cancel this downloads by myself — I own this stuff, files are still fragile things, even when they are spread to the clouds), digital purchases in iTunes are still not like non-digital where I have guarantees.

How can I restore my original files and settings?

I had a computer crash and had to send my laptop in for service, in the process of it, I lost some files. All of my files are backed up on external hard drive, though, but I cannot get firefox to open the files now. I lost my custom preferences and saved passwords. Even though I have these files backed up, if I put them into the firefox folder again, firefox will not open them. Is there another way to retrieve my settings and passwords? I did manage to restore my bookmarks, at least.

How can I restore to factory settings and wipe harddrive?

I am selling my macbookpro 2.16GHz 120GB Duo Core online and I want to be sure that any information cannot be reclaimed from the hard drive. So far I have transfered my files to an external HD and erased all files on the laptop through the trash can application, including emptying the trash. I then inserted the original install disk which I believe returned the computer to factory settings because once it is turned on it begins with the welcome/ set up screens. But I really just want to be sure that I have erased everything and that nothing can be rebuilt from the hard drive. Should I have done something else to "deep clean" it?

Boot from your OS installer disk. The one that came with the MBP. Select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Select the hard drive and then select Erase. You have several choices for the erase procedure so select the one you prefer. The more passes you select the longer the procedure will take. Then install the OS. After the last reboot when Mac Setup Assistant begins to run quit it and direct the Mac to shut down. The next time it's booted (by your new buyer) it will run again and they will have the opportunity to set it up from brand new.
