I backed up and restored Firefox but my passwords will not restore

I have followed the instructions on how to back up and restore my Firefox profile (which I had to do after a full system restore), however, my passwords have not been restored. My bookmarks are all there, but the "saved passwords" area is totally empty. Is there any way I can restore them?

Hi leece, did your backup include these files:
* logins.json (current file format)
* signons.sqlite (older file format)
* key3.db (needed <s>if you set a master password</s> in all cases)

Whenever I click on iTunes store, it just takes me to this huge add to download the new version of iTunes. I have tried clicking the download box and downloading it, but it still will not let me past the add so I can buy music. What gives

Whenever I click on iTunes store, it just takes me to this huge add to download the new version of iTunes. I have tried clicking the download box and downloading it, but it still will not let me past the add so I can buy music. What gives

this is a follow up from the profane post earlier....
i have done this twice in two other posts..
here is my problem.. i started off trying to update itunes, it failed twice and said i needed to install manually via tools.
the only place to get to tools is the pop up box that appears when you click check for updates.. if there is an available update then the pop up shows up with the quick time and itunes files to download. so i finally figured that out. i clicked on tools and manual update, four files were saved to a file. Apple mobile device support, another one similar, itunes, and another one i cant remember. I only downloaded the itunes file seeing as though thats all i needed to accomplish in the first place.
so then i restarted my computer bc you need to reboot and then reopen itunes for update to take effect. once i have itunes back open i plugged in my new 5s which i am trying to sync to my computer to get all my stuff back bc i lost my previous phone over the weekend.. once i plugged the phone in an error stating i needed to unistall the apple mobile device support and itunes and then reinstall. well i dont know where those files were originally stored on my computer AND since my itunes was updated, just not the other 3 associated files, when i click check for updates it says its up to date and then pop up containing the quick time and itunes does not pop up thus i cant get back to the tools tab to manually save the 4 files again.
so i was just going to uninstall itunes all together and then i thought well what happens if it erases all my photos apps songs etc... which would defeat the whole purpose in the first place of me trying to sync my new phone to get all my stuff back.
so i literally have no idea what to do at this point.. if you have read this you are probably just as confused as me...

You can only sync with one iTunes library/computer. To switch:

I have Mac itunes and a touch 2G. My wife has Win7 and touch 4G (both iOS 4.2.1). She got a new iphone, I now have her touch 4G, and am trying to sync it to my Mac itunes. The music and videos sync to the 4G, but apps & podcast will not. All are checked to sync. During sync, it gets to "determining apps to sync" then immediately goes to "finished syncing". No apps or podcasts from my Mac itunes are on the touch 4G.

You can only sync to one iTunes library but you can manage music and videos among different computer/libraries.
It appears that you are trying to sync with a different library.
- If you want to make the Mac you syncing computer:
--- Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by:
iOS: How to back up
--- Restore the iPod from that backup. Note that synced media like apps and music are not in included in the backup.

I have a I-MAC and have used firefox, but lately it will not open from the dock, any suggestions?

As stated above, have used Firefox from the dock for quite a long time, but recently it did not do anything when I clicked on it, just sat there. Have been able to get to it using spotlight, but even then have to go thru extra steps and go thru a step that says something like "this application was downloaded from the internet. Do you want to open it? YES/ NO " Any ideas ? Should I dump it and reinstall, and if so , how would I uninstall?

Hello Chelleuri,

Firefox was hanging up, I uninstalled and downloaded firefox 18. It will not load, says I have to remove older versions which I have done several times

I can't load firefox 18. It asks if I want to uinstall older version if you answer no it dumps you out. If you answer yes it reboots and nothing changes

Please turn off the computer and turn it back on to see if it helps.
Also please try a clean profile.
Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox and any leftover program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps one by one:
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu) and confirm all upcoming messages.
#Now, uninstall Firefox by following the steps mentioned in the [[Uninstall Firefox from your computer#w_uninstall-firefox|Uninstall Firefox]] article.
'''IMPORTANT:''' On Windows, the uninstaller has the option to remove your personal data and settings. Make sure that you do '''not''' check this option; otherwise all of your bookmarks, passwords, extensions, user customizations and other Firefox [[Profiles|user profile data]] will be removed from your computer.
After uninstalling Firefox on Windows, delete the "Mozilla Firefox" program folder, located by default in one of these locations:
* '''(On 32-bit Windows)''' ''C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox''
* '''(On 64-bit Windows)''' ''C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox''
#Go to the Windows Start menu and click on "Computer".
#In the Explorer window that opens, double click Local Disk (C:) to open the C:\ drive.
#Find the "Program Files (x86)" folder or "Program Files" folder.
#* On 32-bit Windows, double-click the '''Program Files''' folder to open it.
#* On 64-bit Windows, you will see a "Program Files (x86)" folder AND a "Program Files" folder. Open the '''Program Files (x86)''' folder.
#Look for a '''Mozilla Firefox''' folder. If you find one, right-click it and select ''Delete'' and confirm that you want to move the folder to the Recycle Bin.
Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
#Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
#Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
Please report back to see if this helped you!

Ran a Windows 8 Refresh and reinstalled Firefox. Now, it will not start. Error: Your Firefox profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible.

I have tried following the steps under Starting the Profile Manager but the error message just pops up:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles#w_starting-the-profile-manager

This is a problem with the profiles.ini file and should be fixed by deleting the profiles.ini file to force Firefox to create a new profiles.ini file and a new default profile.

Suggest you update all these apps on iTune (computer) and sync them to your iPad.

After updating Firefox and Java, Firefox gets stuck loading,will not work, and I have to use End Now to exit it.

I started to have problems after I updated Firefox and then I did a Java update, hoping this would help. Firefox will not finish loading, it gets stuck, I cannot go to websites with it, it is stuck. Then when I try to close it down, I get the message that it is not responding and I have to use" End Now". I am having to use Internet Explorer as my browser, which works fine. My computer is a six year old quite feeble PC with a 37GB hard drive with only about 5GB of available space left.

Yes, you will lose all your data stored on the sync server if you reset the sync (recovery) key.
If you do not keep changes after a restart then see:

Is the password manager working properly?
You can find the sync password and the sync key in the password manager on the computer where you originally created that sync account (email).
*Tools > Options > Security: Passwords: "Saved Passwords" > "Show Passwords"
Look for:
* chrome://weave (Mozilla Services Password)
* chrome://weave (Mozilla Services Encryption Passphrase)

My Iphone 4 has locked me out. Homescreen will show up but cannot get slider to open keypad. SOmetimes if I tap enough things the key pad will display. When I enter the passcode it will not register. If I hit each passcode number twice it will register but then tells me I have the wrong code. I also have boxes and rectangles that appear to highlight items which never used to come up. Anyone have any experience with something like this?

Wow! Its impressive for you to load iOS 4.2 onto the iPhone 4S. How did you do that?
Moving along, press and hold both the power button and home button together for about 10 seconds. Then, press the power putton to turn it back on.

I has to have my harddrive wiped and I reinstalled Mozilla Firefox but now it will not start when I click on it on the desk top?

I have used Mozilla Firefox on my lap top before and it worked well. However, since I had to have my harddrive wiped, I had to reinstall Firefox and now everytime I click on the icon to start it, my computer bluescreens! I do not know what to do?

Did you reinstall from backups, or www.Mozilla.org?

My Ipod WiFi shows the Ip Adress and Subent Mask but the router will not show when it says I'm connected

When I try opening Safari it says cannot connect because not connect even though I am connected. When I go into the settings my Ip Adress and Subnet Mask show up but the router or DNS. I have tried resotring,resetting and forgetting the network but nothing has fixed it so far

What iP address is shown? If it starts with 169 yo never connect to the router.
