I have purchased music, apps, or books with multiple Apple IDs. How can I get all of this content onto my iOS device? 
First, you need to copy all of your purchased content so it is on the same Mac or PC with iTunes. This computer should be the one you sync your device with. For more information on how to move your content, see these articles:
Mac: iTunes for Mac: How to copy purchases between computers
PC: iTunes for Windows: How to copy purchases between computers
Next, authorize your computer to play content with each Apple ID in iTunes. Once your computer is authorized for all your content, it can be synced to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
Cheers,

YOU CANNOT EMAIL ME MY ANSWER SINCE I CANNOT OPEN MY EMAIL. CALL at 240-305-7128 or email at [email protected]

Every time Firefox opened

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.

How can I retrieve a password for a document?

You won't believe this....
I made a document in Acrobat 9 on my Win7 computer, password protected it, typed it in a 2nd time, then saved the document. Just seconds later, I went to test the document to make sure it'd open, so I tried to open it, and ..... it wouldn't open. It said 'wrong password'. So I must have had my fingers on the keyboard in the wrong home base position, and typed something other than I thought. I typed the same "password" with my fingers in different spots on the keyboard, but couldn't replicate the mistake.
How can I retrieve a password?
1) I thought there was something on computers where you could find out previous keystrokes, especially if you've not yet turned off your computer. I read one time where you do some steps then paste the results onto a .txt file, and it will show your previous keystrokes.
2) I almost bought one of those Password Recovery software programs online last night from Daosoft. I wonder if they're a scam, or if they really work?

You can't recover the password. If you could, I could have as well and the whole purpose of encryption would be moot. This is why it is a good practice to save the original PDF before you secure it.
If the password that you created was a really strong one (other than word 'password' or some other word) I doubt that the password recovery programs would do the work. They are usually good only for fairly simple passwords.
Acrobat X added new way of encryption that is almost impossible to crack and Acrobat XI added the password strength indicator which tells you how good the password that you're entering is.

How can i retrieve my password to access my backup restore for my iphone

how can i retrieve for backup password for my iphone

If you use a Mac, when you set a password you can select to store the password in the keychain for retriever.
Warning: If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and then forget your password, you will not be able to restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable. If you forget the password, you can continue to back up and use the device, however you will not be able to restore the encrypted backup to any device without the password. You do not need to enter the password for your backup each time you back up or sync.
If you cannot remember the password and want to start again, you must perform a full software restore and when iTunes prompts you to select the backup from which to restore, choose set up as a new device.

How do you retrieve a password?

Until today I had a password which gave me no trouble. Then I must have made a small error when entering it because I got a message to say it was wrong and I was invited to "retrieve or change " it. In effect this meant changing it, but the new one was unacceptable, another had been used in the past year, I managed to set another new one, but when I used it to try to download an app. I must have mistyped it or something, and had to change it yet again. I've now run out of ideas for passwords, the one I'm using now is a last resort, and I am sure I'll have forgotten it tomorrow!
Why can't one simply retrieve a forgotten password? This is ridiculous to the point of paranoia!

I certainly cannot dispute your logic with regard to the terminology used in the heading. It makes no sense to say recover the password when you are in fact creating a new one. I'm assuming that "recover" is used very loosely in this case. a better title might be how to create a new password - or - maybe "how to recover your account". You can't use the account without a password so that might make more sense.
Anyway, we could discuss the semantics all night long but unfortunately - or actually - for security reasons and for your protection - the password can't be recovered - but you can create a new one.
