How do I retrieve the rest of my browser history?

The browser history that is older than 6 months has completely disappeared (it doesn't show up in the sidebar)! I would very much like to be able to see it again. How do I do this? I know for a fact that Mozilla Firefox used to have a feature where it let you see all your browser history (it put it under "older than 6 months"). I really like to go back and look at all my history. Please tell me this is possible. This really annoys me that this happened.
I downloaded my current version of the browser last June & the browser history is only showing October & onward. In my browser settings (tools- options), in the "privacy" tab, I have it set where it says the browser "will remember history", & I have the cache set to 1024 MB (but for it to override the cache management). I hope someone can help me, because I really want to be able to see the rest of my browser history. Thanks.

You can't restore history in Firefox that has been deleted and that no longer shows in the sidebar or history manager.
That said you can try to restore an older version of the places.sqlite file that stores the history and the bookmarks.

Note that this will replace the bookmarks that you currently have so you may want to create an HTML and JSON backup.

  • How do I increase the length of my browsing history; all I get is today and yesterday and I want to go back 100 days.

    When I go to History: Show all History all I have is today and yesterday, but I want to see the sites that I was on a week or even a month ago (I realize that this may slow things down a bit, but it is a price that I am prepared to pay)

    The setting for a specific number of days to save History was removed from Firefox several versions ago. Why? Too much History was slowing the loading time for Firefox and sometimes making Firefox sluggish.
    Current versions '''''automatically''''' determine how much History to save based on your system's resources (RAM, etc.). It is a complex algorithm, and though I have seen some try to experiment with a few settings, the results were generally not very successful.

  • I accidently hit "forget about this site" in my history, and it deleted all related sites to it. i desperately need to get them back. how do i retrieve the forgotten or deleted sites from history in firefox4 ?

    i use the firefox4, and when i went to my history, i right clicked to delete a certain site, and accidentally hit the last option; (forget about this site) which deleted all the similar sites to the one i clicked! i.e. if it were facebook site, all facebook sites were gone..
    '''how do i retrieve the sites i lost in history?'''

    Tony, thnx for the prompt response,,
    however, i didn't delete. i hit the below option which reads; "forget about this site" which is the last item in the list that appears when you right click any site in history.
    i was told there are open source programs that can retrieve it.
    '''how sure r u that they cannot be recovered?!'''

  • I have mistakenly deleted a mail folder which I had created. Can't remember if it was located to 'iCloud' or 'On My Mac'. How can I retrieve the emails contained in this deleted folder? Your help will be immensely appreciated!

    I have mistakenly deleted a mail folder in which I had created. I can't remember if it was located to 'iCloud' or 'On My Mac'. How can I retrieve the emails contained in this deleted folder? Your help will be immensely appreciated!

    Yeah not a problem. It does seem though that if you did not have a Time Machine backup then you may not be able to recover the deleted folder :/ But for future reference to prevent any of this, a Time Machine backup is a great investment.
    What it does is create an entire backup of your computer anything from personal information down to the screen saver.
    What you first need is a new external hard drive (I would recommend a 1TB or higher just to prevent running out of space soon).
    after that, just plug in the drive to your computer.
    once it is plugged in, in the top right hand corner, close to the wi-fi symbol, you should see a symbol that looks like a clock with a backwards arrow around it.
    click on that and select "open time machine preferences"
    just turn the button to the "on" position, and select the backup drive and Time Machine does the rest
    very great tool

  • How to programmatically retrieve the real field name from a view object ?

    Dear all,
    when I map a business component (a database table) to a view, the fields are automatically converted by JDeveloper, for example, a field named 'user_id' in the oracle table definition, becomes 'userid' in the view.
    The question: how can I retrieve the right table column name from within a backing bean ? Please explain also what should I bind and how; should I use an iterator ?
    Another more: since we can change the label of a field on a view, how can then I get the mapping between the column name on the view and the column name on the table in the database ?
    Thanks in advance,
    Sergio.

    Hi Timo,
    many thanks for your answer.
    The rest of my question: you know we can drop a view from the DataControls onto a ADF page, with each field of the table having a label.
    That label is initially set like the internal table field name, so for instance, if user_id is the real table field name, userid will be the (by JDeveloper) internal renamed table field name, and the label would be userid too.
    If I then change the label text to, for example, "myUserid", the question is: how can I know which real table field does "myUserid" point to ?
    In other words, when my form is submitted, I want to know which field name has been changed and prepare an update sql in a bean.
    For this purpose I bind each view field to a validator function in the bean, and collect al the pairs "label_name + submitted value" in an hash table.
    Now inorder to build up that update query, I need the mapping between the label_name ("myUserid") and the real table field name ("user_id"). The question: how to map the label to the real table field name ?
    By the way, I'm using JDeveloper 11g rel. 2.
    Regards,
    Sergio.

    Hello Sophie59
    You should be able to see two different tabs when setting up the email if you go to Other > Add Mail Account. Once you enter in the email address and password, you should be at the next screen to provide more details about the email as far as incoming and outgoing servers and at the top there will be a blue section to add it in as a POP or IMAP email account. Check out the article below for further troubleshooting and emails setup options.

    I've tried and tried to import them rom iTunes vis "Library"  " Import"

    Hey kbert73
    I would do a transfer of purchases from the phone and not sync. If you sync then it will want to start over and sync music that is on the MacBook Pro. If you want to transfer the music, check out the article below that will give you multiple options on how to move. I have also provided on how to sync with multiple computers.

  • I updated my iPod and it erased everything i had on it.  How do i retrieve the songs that i bought from the iTunes store?  when i try to download/buy them again they tell me i have already purchased them do i want to buy them again?

    I updated my iPod and it erased everything i had on it.  How do i retrieve the songs that i bought from the iTunes store?  when i try to download/buy them again they tell me i have already purchased them do i want to buy them again?  I have authorized my computer but none of them are in my music now.

    You buy one and only one download.
    It is your responsibility to move/copy/backup your music.
    Certainly you did not update your ipod without making sure that you had transferred anything purchased on the ipod to your computer and included it in your regular backup copy of your computer.

  • I have 528 contacts on my phone, but only 290 on my Icloud how can i move the rest over from my phone to my Icloud nothing is working

    I have 528 contacts on my phone, but only 290 on my Icloud how can i move the rest over from my phone to my Icloud nothing is working

    Go to Settings>iCloud, turn Contacts to Off, choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (they will still be in iCloud).
    Download the app My Contacts Backup to your phone.  Use this app to backup the remaining contacts on your phone (from your exchange account) as a vCard attachment to an email that you send to yourself.  Confirm that you have received the email on your phone.
    Go to Settings>iCloud and turn Contacts back to On.
    Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Contacts section), set this to iCloud.  (This will cause new contacts added to your phone to be added to the iCloud account.)
    Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...tap your exchange account and turn off contacts syncing (otherwise you will end up with duplicates on your phone).
    Open the My Contacts Backup email and tap the attachment to import the contacts from your exchange account back to your phone.  They will be added to iCloud and appear on icloud.com and any other devices syncing contacts with your account.

  • How can we retrieve the Payload information from B2B

    Hello,
    We are trying to send the payload information back to the client for a failed BPEL Transaction from B2B's b2b_instancemessage view. We are enqueing messages to IP_OUT_QUEUE using BPEL. We see the payload coming correctly in the B2B Business Message Reports. But we don't see the payload coming in the b2b_instancemessage view for failed B2B transactions. How can we see the payload in b2b_instancemessage view for failed B2B transactions as well? or How can we retrieve the Payload information from B2B?
    Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks. - Sam.

    I am not sure about the PDK API to get the group name. But using LDAP API its easy to get the User Group.
    If you find the answer to get the group name using PDK API, Please update in forum. It will really help others.

  • I forgot my password to get inot email on Thunderbird. How do I retrieve the password or set a new one?

    When I ttry to get my email through Thunderbird, it is now asking me for my password, but I have forgotten it, it has been so long since I have been asked for it. How do I retrieve the password, or set a new one?
    YOU CANNOT EMAIL ME MY ANSWER SINCE I CANNOT OPEN MY EMAIL. CALL at 240-305-7128 or email at [email protected]
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == yesterday

    You need to go to the website of your email provider, only there can you change your password, or let them send you a new one to a different address. Thunderbird can't help you with that.

  • I recently removed an outlook account and now all of my calendar events are missing. The majority of them were added from my iphone 4s. How do I retrieve the events? Backing up with iCloud did not help, as I assumed it would.

    I recently removed an outlook account and now all of my calendar events are missing. The majority of them were added from my iphone 4s. How do I retrieve the events? Backing up with iCloud did not help, as I assumed it would.

    Outlook is a mail client for PC's (and Macs). It is not a type of account. Do you mean an "Exchange Account"?
    If so, then re-add it. The calendar events live on the Exchange Server. The only way to get them back is to re-add the account to the phone. The contents of Exchange and IMAP accounts are not part of the 'backup' as they already exist elsewhere.

    Before I updated my iPod I had all of the songs to an album that I bought on iTunes. After I updated my iPod I only have 5 of those songs from the album. I would like to know how I can get the rest of the songs cause I already paid for the album and I went on my computer and it said that I have to pay for them even though I already paid for the whole album. So what do I do?

    Sync with the same computer iTunes that you normally sync with.
