How can I restore from last backup before IOS upgrade?

My toolbars are mostly empty. What happened? How do I restore the original settings?

My toolbars are mostly empty. What happened? How do I restore the original settings?

* If, on Windows, in Firefox 3.6 the menu bar is hidden then press and hold the Alt key down or press F10, that should make the "Menu Bar" appear
* Go to "View > Toolbars" and check-mark "Menu Bar" with a click on it to make that permanent. See [[Menu bar is missing]]).
* Make sure that you have the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" visible: "View > Toolbars"
* If items are missing then see if you can find them in the "View > Toolbars > Customize" window
* If you see the item in the Customize window then drag it back from the Customize window to one of the toolbars.
* If, in "View > Toolbars > Customize", you do not see that item then click the "Restore Default Set" button

How can I restore Parental Control Settings from Time Machine Backup?

I was trying to adjust one of the parental controlled accounts for my child. I disabled parental controls, rebooted, and re-enabled it. Now all the settings that I had setup before are gone. How can I restore Parental Control Settings from Time Machine Backup?

Hi ...
I've found a solution to my problem.
Time Machine locates extenal HDD backups differently depending if they were done via a network or via a USB/FireWire/Thunderbolt connection.
My initial backup was done via a direct Thunderbolt connection. I ran into the above issue b/c the second time when I tried looking for the backup file the HDD was conencted to my iMac and I was accessing it via a network conenction.
I simply connected the drive directly to my MacBook pro and ... voila. I was able to see the backup, select the iPhoto library and begin the restore.
Hope this helps.
BTW - I found this out by reading the 'blue box' selection on this page: http://pondini.org/TM/E2.html
(Thanks goes to Pondini!)

How do i restore my iCloud settings after my daughter has accidentally deleted them while setting up a new phone to the iCloud account

how do i restore my iCloud settings after my daughter has accidentally deleted them while setting up a new phone to the account?

Hello Emily,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
If you need to sign out of your previous Apple ID on your device, but do not know the password, then you will need to reset the password on that account. Since you do not have access to the email with that Apple ID, you will either have to reset the password using the security questions or contact Apple ID account security.
If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
Contact Apple for help with Apple ID account security - Apple Support
Take care,

How do I restore Firefox Last Session?

After a crash: bp-1dc9064f-fcc3-44f8-9c04-e058d2120127
I missclicked Restore Session button and clicked on the New Session instead. Then I tried to click on the History -> Restore Last Session button but it was "grey" (i.e. inactive).
I thought it is some bug, so I took the common advice (Have you tried to turn it off and on?) and closed Firefox and run it once again. Now the button was active. So I clicked on it, but it just took me to the previous wrong session.
Realizing I'm in great trouble I googled and find out about Sessionrestore.js and Sessionrestore.bak ... but too late I read I have to close Firefox first and then edit those ...
So I renamed the backup, closed Firefox -> which just saved the session and overwrite the file ... open it ... and everything was doomed and screwed by me ...
I had opened about 300 tabs of unsaved (not in bookmarks) work from past few years ... URLs I do not have in bookmarks neither in history - as I simply do not close and reopen them ... Mainly a huge pile of important articles I was digging through.
I tried to search my local drive for some more backup files ... only one I came acroos with the name and date seeming to be old enough was: startupCache.4.little. Immediatly I made a copy of it, just to ensure I won't screw any single remaining chance to somehow restore my last session ...
Now if I remember it correct, after every single crash of Firefox, there's a report being send to Mozilla and in this report there should be included pages that were open during the crash.
So my question is: How to get to the data from this report? (ID above) And how to extract the URLs of the tabs opened during that crash from it?
Second question: Is there any other way of how to get to the data (URLs)?
PS: My history contains about 50.000 of URLs, I tried to dig through, but that was somewhat impractible ...
PPS: I tried to use the Shadow copy method -since I run Windows 7, but somewhat despite Drive Protection being On space assigned to it was 0% ...
It just seems to me that some higher power wanted really badly to wipe my Session off ... well if so I respect it, but if there just a tiny little bit of a chance to restore it I'M ONE BIG EAR!!!

I would recommend taking a look at this article:
[http://kb.mozillazine.org/Breakpad#Mozilla_Crash_Reporter http://kb.mozillazine.org/Breakpad#Mozilla_Crash_Reporter]
It should help you find the data, using your crash report number. Hopefully that contains what you need.

HT2731 how do i restore the factory settings on ipod?

daugther put her password wrong 3 times. now blocked how do i restore factory settings?

If it's showing the red disabled screen then you will need to connect it to the computer that it's normally sync to and you should then be able to reset the iPod and restore/re-sync the content to it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212) - you may need to put the iPod into recovery mode in order to be able to reset it : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
If you do it via a different computer then :
If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.

I have a HP Probook 6445b how do I restore to factory settings please help thanks

How do I restore my HP Probook 6445b to factory settings

Hi:
If you have a recovery partition, boot up the PC and at the beginning of the HP welcome screen, tap the F11 key and you should be presented with the system recovery menu.
If that doesn't happen or you don't have a recovery partition you will need to order a set of quick restore disks for your PC by calling HP for the country you live in at the link below.
http://www8.hp.com/us/en/hp-information/summary/ww-contact-us.html
If there is a separate phone number for business PC's/notebooks, call that number.
Inform the customer services rep that you need a set of quick restore DVD's for your notebook.
You will be asked for the model number and serial number, so have those handy.
Cost ranges from free in countries such as the UK, to $10 in the USA/Canada, to more than $10 elsewhere.

How to restrict restoring to factory settings on iPhone 4S

Hi,
Is there anyway to prevent my phone being restored back to factory settings if someone was to steal it without using a pass code every time I use my phone? Exactly like the restrictions but I couldn't find out how to stop them restoring my phone back to factory settings.
Thanks

Nope. Since it looks like you are on ios7 then in order to restore you need the apple id and password you used to set it up. Anyone that steals your phone cannot restore it. Although not using a passcode is not recommended because then if it is stolen they can get all your personal information off the phone.

How do I restore my ipod settings?

Hi,
I've have somehow messed up my ipod mini that when I plug it into my laptop and itunes tries to read it, it says that it is unable to read my ipod and i need to restore my ipod, but i can't do it thru itunes ...is there another way to restore my ipod?

Assuming you have the new iTunes version 7 (because that's where the updater is now), connect the iPod and when the iPod status screen appears click on summary (in fact that screen should automatically appear) and there's the option to update or restore.
