I had no idea Aurora used the same actual App Data file as it's own source, I thought it was just emulating Firefox. I unistalled it and lost everything...

I had installed Aurora 21.0a2 some time last year and had only used it once. I recently uninstalled it and without knowledge that it used the same exact App Data files as Firefox does, so I removed all data. Now I have lost 100's of bookmarks... I do backup my system often but not my browser data, I had only once made a copy of my Firefox data in August 2013, so I was able to copy and paste that info, which had maybe 35-40% of my bookmarks...
I had tried Windows Recovery a couple times, it says it wasn't able to restore the data successfully each time. I had also tried Recuva, not really sure if it found the file I was searching for, so I would kindly ask any of the Forum Mods or users who would suggest this method, what "file" exactly should I search for.
I had been searching for ".default" and ".defaults" files, and any other data relating to Firefox but with no success.
Do I really have any options of recovery or ....?

You should never choose to remove "personal data" when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords including data in profiles created by other Firefox versions.
You will have to try to recover a recent JSON backup (bookmarks-####-##-##_xxxx.json) in the bookmarkbackups folder of that removed Firefox profile folder with Recuva or another undelete utility.

  • Can two players use the same game app without erasing each other's scores?

    Can two players use the same game app on the same device without erasing each other's scores?  My two sons build up their characters and progress in their games, then the other one wants to play, erasing the first son's progress.
    Is it possible to create two player identities in the Game Center? 
    Is it possible to have two different Apple User ID accounts on the same device?  Is that even desirable?
    Many thanks!

    You can create as many individual user accounts on a Mac as you like. Then, any one or more of those users can remotely log in from another Mac and use that Mac as their own, simultaneously. Each account will remain separate from all others.
    However, since each user needs to have a Mac to do that, I'm not sure how you could effectively double the number of users as you describe.

  • Can multiple accounts use the same purchased apps from the same computer?

    Hope one of you guys can help me out!
    Ive got an iTunes account with over 1300 app store apps, most of which are paid, my kids have just got an iPhone4 and an iPod Touch4 for xmas presents and Im currently setting them up for them to use straight away on xmas day.
    The issue is;
    For them to be able to use all my apps on their devices Ive had to use my account, this causes issues with things like GameCentre and FaceTime, because we are all on the same e-mail address and account!!!
    Is there any way for me to set up there own accounts in such a way as they can still have access to my apps?????
    Please help if you can, it would be greatly appreciated,
    Thanks, James

    How do I authorise them all to use the same apps etc?
    that's basically very easy. all you have to do is +log out+ of one account (click on the account name in the Store window and select +sign out+ from the pop-up dialog) and into the other, and then they will both be authorized.

  • HT201272 Can two synchronised ipads use the same purchased apps

    I have two i-pads with shared free apps, but when I purchased one from the i-tunes store recently it would not show up on both.  How do I share this language course with both i-pads?

    If you are using the same iTunes account on both iPads then you should be able to re-download the app on the second iPad via the Purchased tab in the App Store app. If you always want any new app purchases to download on both then you should be able to turn on automatic downloads via Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores if they are on iOS 6).

  • Multiple users, using the same web app items?

    Iam building a service for familes were the parents should be able to read / add / edit the same secure web app items.
    So when logged in the user have access to the same user submitted web app items.
    I found a thread answerd by Liam and my guess this is not possible? Can it be partial be done e.g. just let the "family" read the familys items? And no there is not possible to add / pair the users in backend because there are to many.
    Any tip where to look? I have tried to use the "uniqe ID, datasource, unique template" method but do you "wizards" :-) think that's the way to go?
    This thread suggest it's not doable.

    Not in association Johan no.
    You can have one "Family" login they all use to log in but it will kick one out if the other logs in and of course, multiple people sharing the same login increases the security risk.
    You can only set one owner as well.

  • Two phones using the same apple id

    I use the same apple ID for my daughters phone, hoever i do not want her to have my conatcts, etc... and vice versa but it has automatically copied them, how do i get rid of these and stop it happening?

    1. To create an Apple ID, you need a valid e-mail address.
    If you don't have one, there are a number of free e-mail account you can get e.g. Google GMail, Yahoo, Microsoft Hotmail.
    2. Once you have a valid e-mail address, create Apple ID below:
    https://appleid.apple.com
    3. You can share the purchasing Apple ID for both iPhone in
    Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID: > apple id here to share purchases eg. Books, Music, Apps...
    4. All other Apple services (FaceTime, iMessage, iCloud, etc...) you can use the same purchasing Apple ID and your daughter should use a different Apple ID.

  • How do I get six family apple devices to be able to use the same iTunes account to make purchases?

    Our family has an iPad, a MacBook Air, 2 iPhones, and 2 iPod touches. I tried to access music in iTunes on my MacBook Air and a message came up that said you can only have 5 devices use the same iTunes account. What can I do to allow us to all use the same account?

    Get a second Apple ID. Perhaps you should have two different Apple IDs for each iPhone and iPod Touch.

  • WAR within EAR is using the same classloader as the EAR

    Hi all,
    From documentation, I understand that each WAR web application that are packaged within EAR should have a separate (child) classloader and should not be using the same classloader as the EAR. I have two WAR files and some JAR files all packaged and deployed as an EAR. Using the Classloader Analysis Tool, I think the two web applications (WARs) are actually using the same classloader as the EAR. I say this because:
    1. The application class loader listed for the web apps has the same hashcode as the class loader listed for the EAR.
    2. I tried to add the <prefer-web-inf-classes> element within the WAR's weblogic.xml file and it doesn't seem to work. The web app is still using classes loaded in the EAR. This is consistent with my observation that the classloader for the WARs has the same hashcode as the classloader for the EAR - therefore I think they are using the same classloader.
    I don't understand this behavior. I thought WARs are supposed to be using different/child classloaders from the EAR by default. Do I have to specifically declare my own customer <classloader-structure> within weblogic-application.xml in order to have child classloaders for the WARs within my EAR?
    Thanks for any help.

    We are doing it currently as we are switching over from Exchange 5.5 to OCS. We set up a profile using the Oracle connector and then go into properties and add the Exchange account. We used this method to move files from the Exchange server to the Oracle server by having both profiles running.

    what if i change to new iphone can the apps & contacts been copied to my new devise use the same icloud/apple id?

    Yes, they can ... best way ist to backup your current device with iTunes and setting up the new iPhone from this backup ... iTunes will ask you this when you connect your new one for the first time ...

    You might find useful advice on this Web page: Time Machine Troubleshooting, particularly item C13.
    The crazy thing is tht on my ProBook I still have them even though it uses the same Time Capsule, which to mind mind they are still there on the Time Capsule.
    Not necessarily.  Each Mac using a particular Time Capsule has its own set of backups that are independent of those of any other Mac.
    Has anybody else had this experience or has any suggestions how I can retrieve the info on my Mac?
    Why are those backups so important to you?  My advice is to move on and live without them.

  • Just got my other new ipad yesterday and am setting it up.  Wanting to use the same e-mail address but won't let me.  Any idea's.  We would like to be able to get into e-mails on both ipads. Thanks.

    Just got my other ipad2 yesterday and would like to use the same e-mail that I use on the other one, but it won't let me. Any idea how to set that up.  I thought you could have like 5 on one acct.  Thanks.

    No it's not stealing. They have an allowance that you can share with so many computers/devices. You'll have to authorize her computer to play/use anything bought on your acct. You can do this under the Store menu at top when iTunes is open on her computer.
    As far as getting it all on her computer....I think but I am not sure (because I don't use the feature) but I think if you turn on Home Sharing in iTunes it may copy the music to her computer. I don't know maybe it just streams it. If nothing else you can sign into your acct on her computer and download it all to her computer from the cloud. Not sure exactly how to go about that, I haven't had to do that yet. I wonder if once you authorize her computer and then set it up for automatic downloads (under Edit>Preferences>Store) if everything would download. Sorry I'm not much help on that.

  • HT201272 I have always had and used the same Apple ID, so where are the rest of the songs I bought from itunes? I've bought at least 400 songs and I only am being able to download 178. Where are the rest of my purchases?!

    I have always had and used the same Apple ID. I have changed credit card information on my Apple ID account several times though. Does that make a difference when downloading past purchases? I'm very angry at Apple and Itunes because I have been using itunes since 05/2005 and I do not have even close to the amount of songs and albums that I have purchased from itunes. If the credit card info does make a difference even though the account is the same one then itunes needs to make sure to notify users of this because I am not the only one who is wondering this same thing. I have numerous friends who i've talked to about this and they say the same thing, that they too have songs purchased in the past that have disappeared when trying to download past purchased items. It should not make a difference. $12 is $12. Especially since I have ALWAYS used the same account. If itunes does not change their ways, I will not be purchasing songs or anything else for that matter from them ever again. I will go back to buying CDs where I KNOW that it will always be with me and I don't have to deal with this. I will also make sure to find a better more reliable source to download music from and will make sure everyone I know and come in contact with knows what it is and how much better it is than itunes. There should be no experation date on the music I PURCHASE, nor should there be any other little loop holes that allow itunes to rob us of rightfully purchased products. What's the deal itunes??

    There should be no issues. Its designed to work like that.  You don't change Apple IDs just because you get a new device.

    Is there any chance that the phones can fall out of sync?
    Unlikely. But nothing is impossible.   Though I don;t see how that would happen. As long as both are signed into the Same Apple ID / iCloud Account they will be N'Sync. (Bad Joke)

    If I get a message or buy an app or take a photo on the iPhone 5, how do I get those things onto the iPhone 6?
    If you buy an App, you have 2 ways to get it to the iPhone6: If Automatic Downloads is enabled in Settings->iTunes & App Store, it will automatically download to the iPhone 6 when you buy it on the 5 and vice versa if you buy it on the 6, it will download to the 5.
    Alternatively, you can simply go to the App Store App->Updates->Purchased and look for the App there and download it. Purchased Apps will not require payment again. i.e They'll be free to download to the iPhone 6 once purchased.
    SMS Messages will sync over using Continuity as long as they are on the same Wifi network. Otherwise, restoring the iPhone 5 backup to the iPhone 6 will transfer all messages received up until the backup was made onto the iPhone 6.
    Images, can be transferred either through Photo Stream
    My Photo Stream FAQ - Apple Support
    Or any Cloud service you want such as Dropbox, or One Drive.

    Also, something i forgot to ask initially: Should I update the iPhone 5 to iOS 8 first or does that not matter?
    If you want the Continuity features as explained above you need to update the iPhone 5 to iOS 8. Otherwise its not all that important.

    I had to take my hp back to factory setting and reinstall itunes, when I tried to use Itunes match it said i had to Deauthorize all my computers. I am using the same computer and desperately need access to my music.

    When you reset to factory settings, the computer is de-authorised.
    In iTunes menu Store > View Account > sign in > App Store > Deauthorise All.
    Once done, authorise this computer iTunes.
    Note: you can only do that once a year.

  • Can I Delete my Current Apple ID Account then Re-Create/Re-Register a New Version of It but Use the Same Apple Username & iCloud E-Mail Address I Had Before?

    I already had an Apple ID before registering for iCloud e-mail.
    This means that my Primary Apple ID is my @gmail.com e-mail address (the one I originally registered my Apple ID with), however I'd prefer that my Primary Apple ID were my new @iCloud.com e-mail address.
    Yet, I already know that it is simply not possible to make my new @iCloud.com e-mail address my Primary Apple ID in any easy/simple sort of manner.
    My understanding is, the only possible way I could use an @iCloud e-mail address as my Primary Apple ID now is to make a brand new Apple ID account. However, I want to keep/continue using my current @iCloud e-mail address and my Apple username (JRCSaunders) -- I don't want to have to choose a new @iCloud e-mail address or Apple username.
    So basically what I'm wondering is if there is any possibility that I might be able to completely delete/erase my current Apple ID and then re-create a new Apple ID using my current/existing @iCloud.com e-mail addressas my Primary Apple ID and re-using the same Apple username I have now (JRCSaunders)?
    I'm just trying to think of a work-around so that I can make my current/existing @iCloud e-mail address my Primary Apple ID, which does not seem possible without having to create an all-new Apple ID account. But I don't want to create a new account if it means having to change any of my current addresses/names/etc. to new/different ones. So, is what I described (deleting then re-creating using the same names/addresses/info) possible?
    Thanks!

    Oops, I realized I posted this question in the iPhone section by mistake.  Is it possible to delete this message and re-post it over in the iPod Touch section?
