I cannot find my bookmarks since updating firefox.

I updated to ff4 and gradually lost all of my bookmarks within 24 hours. After 24 hours I had NONE. I tried every trouble shoot but cannot recover. Please help.

This can be caused by a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

I cannot find the bookmark icon (star) on the location bar. Please help!

I just started using Firefox today, as I have had enough with IE freezing up whenever I try to close a link that opens from one browser window. Now after going through the Getting Started tutorial, I see that I cannot find the bookmarks icon (the star) on the location bar. I'd appreciate your help with this!
Thanks!

Hello Jignesh.
This issue has been reported before by other users, and it turns out it's the effect of malware. In other words, your system is infected. To scan for malware, install, update and run these programs ''in this order''. They are all free for personal use, but some have limited functionality in their "free mode", but the features you'll miss are not really needed to find and remove the problem you have. Remember that ''not all programs detect the same malware''!

Hi Clkster, if you're happy with your screen the way it is now, then there's no need to post a screen shot. If you still have any remaining problems with it, you could describe those if you like.

Since updating Firefox I have problems with playing Zynga games

since updating Firefox I have problems with the Zynga games I am playing. The functions often stop working so I have to reboot the game. Also there are often a lot of items missing on my screen so I can't play at all

I have this problem, as well, since the upgrade to 4.0.1. After the upgrade, I found several 'Recovered Files' in my Trash. On taking a look, they all had to do with the Crowdstar app. Happy Aquarium, I believe, but there are several folders of them. Some of them could have to do with Zynga's FarmVille.
However, after repeated problems, I installed Chrome 10. to see if the Facebook apps. would work. They did, without problems. That tells me the folders in Trash shouldn't have anything to do with whether they operate or not but it has something to do with something Firefox has done, or not done, with this upgrade. Frankly, I'm baffled and more than a little annoyed. :/
However, thinking back to the upgrade, it happened suddenly while I was on the phone with AppleCare on another matter. It was they who suggested I needed to upgrade my browser and I did it immediately, on-the-spot. It wasn't what you would call a 'clean install' because I was on the phone but also online with AppleCare. The process went so fast, I remember there were things about the installation that didn't quite seem right and I do remember that the earlier version of Firefox was not removed prior to the upgrade. Is there any chance something could be out-of whack because of this? If so, I need to know how to save my passwords, bookmarks, profile, and any other critical info that would need to be transferred.

I have downloaded the latest pages update on my iPad, but my iMac still has Pages version 4.3, and I cannot find out how to update it on my desktop. When I try to send something from my iPad pages via email to be opened on my desktop in Pages, it won't open in Pages. I get a message that it can't be opened because the version is too old. I sent the document as a PDF and it worked. But I want to be able to use Pages back and forth. HOw do I update the Pages version on my desktop iMac?

The file format used by the iOS versions of the iWork apps can only be read by the new iWork apps on your Mac - i.e. Keynote 6, Pages 5 & Numbers 3. Those versions for the Mac require Mavericks, OS X 10.9. The "too old" error on a Mac comes if you are trying to open an iWork '08 or earlier file in the newest apps. If you do have the newest apps you can open the files from your iPad.
If you can't or don't want to upgrade to Mavericks & the newest iWork apps your best option would be to export/share the files from the iPad to a type an older version of iWork can read such as Word, text, Excel, etc.
Or contact AppleCare. They made this mess, let them fix it.

i cannot find a way to update my itunes to 10.6.8. i need this in order to sync my new ipod. i just updated to 10.6.3.help!

As Limnos says, you first need to update to OS X 10.6.8 before you can install iTunes 11 (please note the version numbers).
To update OS X close all running applications and make sure you have a current backup. Then pull down the Apple menu and select Software Update. This may show you several items that you can update. Choose OS X 10.6.8. This may take some time. After the process is complete you will be able to run Software Update again and it ought to offer you iTunes 11.

I have HP Simple Pass on my HHP laptop & all saved passwords are no longer avail since updating Firefox.

All of my saved passwords that I could enter by swiping my finger on my HP laptop with SimplePass are no longer useable since updating Firefox. I receive the following error message every time I try to use Simple Pass: "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (dpql) isn't associated with any program,"

Digital Persona got out of the consumer touch pad software business, and HP selected Egistec to handle HP Simple Pass.

Since updating firefox, the virginia gov site times out. no problem with other sites

Since updating firefox a couple day ago, I get 'The connection has timed out
The server at www.tax.virginia.gov is taking too long to respond''
when I try to get on that site. I had to email my payment info to a friend to pay my sales tax. (She could get on the site) I have no problem getting on other sites.

Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

Since updating Firefox, Google appears as a string of foreign characers

Hi, since updating Firefox, as the title says, any google page just appears as a string of foreign characters. I've had pages like this before, but only when connecting to live streams. I've disabled all Google-related plugins and addons, but still the problem persists. The solution in the other thread to do with about:config (changing an option to 'true' failed. The only other difference to it is that it won't connect in http any more, just https. Any help?

Hey TheDefiniteArticle,
We've been tracking this issue for a few days now. What date did it start to occur? Wondering if it's an extension update or something.
# In the url bar, type about:config and hit enter. Confirm that you will be careful and proceed.
# In the search bar at the top of the page, past this text without the quotes "network.http.accept-encoding"
# This should narrow down the values in the config file to a single line. In the column that says "Value" please tell me what you see.
# This field should read "gzip, deflate" without the quotes. If that is not the value, double click on that field and paste this vale in.
# Restart Firefox and try a page that has had strange encoding previously.

My canon p-150m scanner gives the error message "cannot load drivers" ever since updating to yosemite

Same question answered here : https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5762314?tstart=0
I just popped in with using Mavericks (I got rid of my MBP about a year ago, and just got another one when I got an Air for my wife) and noticed that Mavericks is not working and playing well with a couple of programs I already owned (Paraellels, for example...yes, I spelled it wrong...). I looked for maginon.com and it didn't exist, nor was my google search directed to another location for them, so I postulate that the device may not be in production anymore, thus: no driver updates from the manufacturer.
From my mac-noob-layman's perspective: get some vmware, run windows and use the scanner in your virt machine to capture your images. Put the images in your mac side and work your mac magic on them there.
Peace

Please help me, cannot start I-tunes since Update 7,5

Can anybody help me, i don´t now what to do now. I hade my new I-pod, because i have only problems, please help me to love it again.
Ulrich

ok I am no expert on PC's or itunes but I have had the same problems as a lot of you on here. Have a look at what the solutions are. You need to remove the itunes 7.5 program and the quicktime program as it is causing the problem. Uninstall may or may not work, manually deleting the programs will work but your regisry will still indicate it is installed. My advice is to install
Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
I am not sure how to make an active link to it so have a look through this forum, install it, run it, remove all traces of itunes and QT then install from the downloads section version 7.4.3 which was ok. Then dont update, not yet, let them get sorted first. I hope this helps, it did me after about 4 hours and the info was right there all the time.

I cannot open JAVA since updating Firefox

I used Java successfully for one web site until my last update with Firefox. Now Java will not open and a popup explains that the app I tried was not registered with Apple by an identified developer. Also it says the safest approach is to look for a new version of the app from Mac App Store or check for an alternative from an identified developer. It also says I can override my security settings and open the app anyway.
Since I used it for so long I don't understand this glitch or what is safe to do. I cannot find an app for JAVA for mac in the Mac App store.
Any one else have this problem? Any advice on what is safe to do? I haven't tried to open it within Safari because I didn't want to use Safari for Java.
Thanks.

DL = download
SE = standard edition
JRE = Java Runtime Environment component
The only way to tell which JRE version you have installed in Lion or larter is to run this commend in the Terminal app:
/Library/Internet\ Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/Contents/Home/bin/java -version
It should return something like this:
java version "1.7.0_67"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_67-b01)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.65-b04, mixed mode)
