How do I remove a profile account from one computer without deleting the data?

Hi! I want to delete mozilla from one computer and remove my profile account so that all of my data on this computer is deleted. But I use the same profile in mozilla on another computer and I don`t know if my profile will keep the data stored on this computer after deleting it in the other one. Can you please clarify this issue for me. Thanks!
Best,
Vanya

If you want to delete your personal data on a computer reliably then you would have to perform a secure wipe to clear the data on the hard drive.
Otherwise Windows will only mark data as deleted.
Best is to disconnect from Sync before deleting data on a computer to avoid other computers from getting affected.
You can use the Profile Manager to remove a profile.

  • How do I remove my iCloud account from an iPhone without deleting the account?

    I need to know if there is any way to simply remove it from this iPhone, but not delete it.
    The only button I can see on the iCloud screen at Settings -> iCloud is "delete account".
    As I use this account for both iTunes and iCloud, pressing it is not a risk I want to take.
    Thanks in advance.

    Don't worry - Delete Account just means that it is deleting it from the phone. Trust me I've done it a bunch of times with many accounts and they are all perfectly fine

  • How can I remove an iTunes account from a computer I'm giving away?

    How do I remove my iTunes account from a computer that I am giving to a student in my school? I want the music I purchased to play, but I don't want the student to have access to my email address or my credit card that is tied to "my account". I went through the steps to deauthorize a computer but encountered two problems:  1) The only command offered was "deauthorize all". There was no list of the authorized computers where I could check a box to select the one to deauthorize.  2) If I want to leave the music with the computer, but remove the authorization.

    If you are giving the computer away you should not include music you've purchased: the purchase doesn't include the right to make copies to give to other people, which is what you would in effect be doing. The same applies to any purchased sofrtware which wasn't bundled with the computer when new.
    The proper procedure when selling or giving a computer is to erase it completely and restore it to its out-of-the-box condition from the original disks. You should also make sure to include the disks which came with the computer.

  • HT5622 How do I access the notes in my iCloud account from an iPad WITHOUT deleting the other iCloud account?

    I'm borrowing an iPad from a friend and don't want to mess up their settings too much, but I really need to access something in my Notes and for that I need to access my iCloud account.
    Please Help!

    I was not aware of the fact that you could not sign into your own iCloud,con account from another computer. Actually, as far as I know, you can. When you go to iCloud.com, you simply sign into your own account.
    I can access my iCloud.com account on a Mac running Tiger and here is a screenshot that shows it. I access my Pages files from work on the Mac. I used it yesterday in fact - and I am using an ancient version of Safari as well.

  • How can I transfer a profile to my new computer without overwriting the existing profile?

    I have a new Window 7 computer and have started using TB. I now want to transfer my messages from my old (Window XP) and do not want to overwrite the data in the new computer. Is there a way to transfer the old data and add it to the new profile?

    For downloads of CS3 see THIS thread.
    For your serial number, if Photoshop is still running on your old machine;
    Start Photoshop. Goto Help > System Info. Buried in amongst all the stuff in there will be your serial number. Read through it carefully.
    If Photoshop is not installed / running on your old machine, then you are indeed pretty much hosed.
    This is always assuming software that old will run successfully on a new machine, of course.

  • Is there a way of adding music to an Iphone from a computer without deleting the music already on there?

    I have music on my iphone that is not in my computer's Itunes library and visa versa, i would like to download a specific group of songs from my computer's itunes library to my Iphone's. The problem is I do not want to go through the entire process of syncing my entire library again and I fear that if do the songs that i have on the iphone will be deleated. is there a way this can be solved, maybe through icloud or something?

    The home page '''''about:home''''' is built in to Firefox and should/would not be affected.
    Though it should/would not affect '''''about:home''''', there is an entry for Mozilla on their list, if you are using some page at mozilla as your home page. On my installation that item on their list is shown as disabled; I do not recall disabling that item myself, therefore it could be their default (disabled) and they know that item is not functioning properly on their list.
    You may be correct in that there could be a conflict with another add-on. The only way to determine that is to experiment by installing '''''HTTPS Everywhere''''', disabling/enabling a few extensions (or plugins), restart Firefox and repeat until you find the conflicting item.

    The only other thing that comes to mind is a possible corruption of '''''HTTPS Everywhere''''' during download/installation.
    Post back once you locate a solution yourself, if it is a conflict with another add-on, or once you hear back from Electronic Frontier Foundation with a solution from them.

  • Is there a way i can add music from my computer without deleting the music i alread have from a different computer?

    No. iTunes will first erase everything from another computer. It is designed to work that way.

  • How can I remove version 3.5 from my computer... the add/remove programs will not work, I have 3.6 installed and 3.5 is taking up over 2 gigabytes of disk space according to the add/remove in the control panel and nothing I do will remove 3.5

    I have been trying to make room on my C drive and have been removing stuff I don't use. I have version 3.6 Firefox but my settings show I also have 3.5 which shows over 2,000 megabytes of disc space being used. I try to remove it but nothing happens, nor can I find it when searching "my computer" to try and kill it. Why would any program use up 2 gig of space?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I was trying to find a way to clear up space on my C drive

    If you need to consider removing 30MB folders to create space then I imagine your hdd is seriously short of space. Normally I think it is often suggested a minimum of 20-25% free space be left on a Windows machine hdd. How much free space % wise have you at present.
    You probably have already thought of these, a lack of space could slow things down and may even contribute to crash problems.
    *Not using the Hibernate feature will release one largish chunk.
    *Not keeping video files on the HDD unnecessarily is also likely to save space.

  • How can I update multiple IOS devices from one computer without downloading IOS each time

    My company is on a VERY slow internet connection, and at the moment we are using a cellular modem to increase our bandwidth.  This connection is a metered connection.  The 1 Gb download for IOS 7 will kill all of my purchased bandwidth, and has a potential to both take a while and/or cost a fortune.  I need a way to update 58 iPhone 4's, 4S's and 5's to IOS 7 while only downloading IOS for each device type once.  We are using iTunes to do this update as the update utility on the phone has caused 3 of our units to crash and lose all their data.  2 of which were bricked and had to be replaced by applecare.  We had a utility for that when I worked for apple a few years ago that used iTunes in this manner, but I am not sure this exists on the consumer side.  Does anyone know where i can look for this solution?

    - Since you have iOS 4.x, the only way to update the iPod is to connect the iPod to a computer and update via iTunes. See:
    iOS 4: Updating your device to iOS 5 or later
    - If you following these instructions you can update the iPod without losing anything.  WHen you restore from backup as the article says the iPod will also be updated.
