HT201272 ok I rented to movies yesterday. I went to watch them today for the first time and they are gone? How do I get them back?

What happened to the movies I rented????

Welcome,
If you are refering to the Dock Icon which showed you your Downloads folder then open a Finder Window on your Home folder and drag the Downloads folder to the dock. It will create an Icon for the folder.
Not sure about the Bootcamp icon, don;t use it but if there is a Bootcamp folder the procedure should be the same.
regards
BTW Starting a discussion is the same as asking a question.

I used to have Emoji on my iPod when I first bought it. I had to restore my iPod because it went into recovery mode and it deleted everything. How do I get Emoji back? Do I have to buy it off iTunes?

I've just found the keyboard shortcut in Garageband for 'copy region' had changed from cmdC to ctrlC. I went to Preferences and clicked Restore Defaults for shortcuts. Now its altC . How can I get it back to the original commands.

When I use find file http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/30073/find-file (which does tend to find files that "Finder" can't), it's not coming up with any other itunes library files that have been modified in the past week, which I know it would have been - unfortunately, I don't have a very recent backup of the hard drive. It would be a few months old so it wouldn't have the complete library on it....any ideas? I'm wondering if restarting the computer might help but have been afraid to do so in case it would make it harder to recover anything...I was looking at this thread https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4211589?start=0&tstart=0 in the hopes that it might have a helpful suggestion but it's definitely a different scenario.

The power went out and when it returned the network name and password was lost. I can see the network in my connections and connect to it. How do I get it back to the orginal name and password. I have an HP laptop

Chances are, there was a signficant power surge or voltage fluctuation just before the power went out. This type of thing can cause the AirPort Extreme to reset back to default settings.
If this occurs, your only option is re-configure the device again, just as you did originally.
In order to improve your chances this next time this happens, (especially if you live in an area where thunderstorms are severe), a good quality surge suppressor / voltage limiting power strip will really help, and may save you the entire device or a nearby computer next time something like this occurs.

HT4623 The icons for my camera and facebook have disappeared. How can I get them back

I installed IOS6 recently on my IPhone and now my camera and facebook icons have disappeared. How can I get them back? Help!

For your camera, go to Settings>General>Restrictions and be sure that Camera is set to On. Don't know why you can't find FB, be sure you checked all your screens and inside all your folders.

Screen turns off after a few minutes and needs to be closed then opened

hi, as the title suggests my powerbook screen turns off after a few minutes before my screensaver is set to come on and when i come back and press a key or move the pad it wont start up so i need to close the powerbook then open it up again for it to activate. its not a huge problem but my programs which connect to the internet seem to lose their connection when i open it up again. is this normal? is there a setting i can change?
thanks

Is there a way to "disable" Standby, Suspend and Off just when watching movies (in fullscreen or not)? I want them to do what they usually do in all other cases.
Setting them to 0 in xorg.conf does the thing, but I need that functionality only when I'm wathing movies. Making a script that alters adjustments in xorg.conf isn't the best solution - you'd have to restart X every time you want to watch a movie .
Cheers,
Daniel

Shutdown restarts after a few minutes and sleep shuts computer down.

When I shutdown my computer, the shutdown process starts, computer goes into "logging off" and continues for a few minutes before restarting automatically. When I go into "sleep mode" , computer appears to go into the proper mode, but a few minutes later, shuts down. When I log on again, Windows advises that I had an abnormal shutdown. Sleep and shutdown appear to have reversed for some reason.

Hello hankaree,
Knowing what model computer you are using and what operating system you have will allow me to provide you with exact instructions if needed, however try disabling all non Microsoft applications to startup on the computer and put the computer in a clean boot state.
1. Click on start
2. Type in the search field or click on the run application depending on your OS
3. Type MSCONFIG
4. When the mosconfig window comes up click on the startup tab
5. Disable all
6. Reboot
7. Test
If the system behaves as normal then we can start enabling things to see if we can find what is causing the issues. If the problem persists we can start trying to looking at other solutions.

You System Details List shows "browser.newtab.url: about:blank", so you currently have set the about:newtab page to an empty page.
To get the about:newtab page you can reset the browser.newtab.url pref to about:newtab on the <b>about:config</b> page.

In the top left on my screen where the back arrow is, there used to be a drop down arrow to skip back many pages. After installing 4.0.1, it has disappeared. How do I get it back?

In the top left on my screen where the back arrow button is to go back to previous webpages, there used to be a drop down arrow just to the right so I can see many of my previous web pages. Since installing Firefox 4.0.1, that arrow disappeared.

You can get the drop down list by either right-clicking on the back/forward buttons, or holding down the left button until the list appears.
If you want the drop-down arrow you can add it with the Back/forward dropmarker add-on - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker

Firefox on my wife's laptop has lost the black bar that used to show Maps, Gmail etc. Now at the top of the screen there is a blank bar, triple height, with just the Google search input box. How do I get this back? Or is this a question for Google?

When I open Firefox there is a black bar, sometimes vertical, other times horizontal, across the top, with links to Maps, Gmail etc. When I open Gmail the same links are listed across the top of the screen, right under the Tabs. In my wife's laptop this appears in the Firefox start-up screen, but not in the Gmail screen. At the top of her screen is a super-wide gray bar with just a Google search input box. Is this a Firefox or Google problem?
She has XP Home SP3 and Firefox 9
Thanks for any help.

What happened yesterday may have been caused by the SOPA protest action that was joined by a lot of sites yesterday and such an action won't happen that often.

Can anyone help I have lost my SETTINGS app on the opening screen of my iPad and can't find out where to retrieve it. I have re set the factory settings but it did not re-appear. Without this app I can't change any settings. Thanks if anybody can help with idiot guide instructions I would be very grateful.

Hello
Lost mind last week. Remembered a post: impossable to delete this app and one should look in all the folders on the home pages.
Found it in a news folder. So have a look in all of your folders. Hope you haven't to many
Best of luck
