Look on your desktop. Do you see a folder named '''Old Firefox?'''

These can't get your data back, but will help in the future.
These add-ons can be a great help by backing up and restoring Firefox

FEBE allows you to quickly and easily backup your

In fact, it goes beyond just backing up -- It will actually rebuild
your saved files individually into installable .xpi files.
It will also make backup of files that you choose.

  • HT5622 had not used my itunes in awhile and the other day I was not able to access my itunes account, had to reinstall itunes and now I can not find any of my apps that I had in my library.

    Have not accessed my itunes account in some time, the day I found that I could not get itunes to run or even open up, I then tryed to reinstall itunes to my computer, I then was able to access my account and some of my library, but not any of my APPS??? How does one recover APPS lost in a reinstall.

    Are the files still physically on your HD?
    [User]/Music/iTunes/Media/Music is the default location. Unless you suddenly have a bunch of new "free space" on your hard drive, they're still where they were, you just need to create a new library file.

  • Had to reinstall OS, and now GB can't find my loops

    I had a problem that forced me to reinstall my OS (Tiger 10.4.10), and now GarageBand can't find my Apple Loops although they are clearly there in the root Library in the Audio folder. What can I do to get it to "see" them? I have dropped them on to the Loop Browser and it looks like it's reindexing, but nothing shows up int he Loop Browser window. Help!

    first question: in what time signature is your song?

    I updated Firefox and now Realplayer can't download any videos( download button in upper right corner of video don't pop up and there is no download option if I right click) if I use Internet explorer it works fine, I also went in to make sure I had it checked to pop up it is?! So it's not just youtube for me its all videos!
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == the last firefox update
    ''locking due to the age of this thread''

    haven't tried it myself but saw this earlier in a blog somewhere:
    "try retro installing FF v3.6.3",
    makes sense 'cos I've only been experiencing the same problem with mozilla & realplayer combo since updating to latest FF v3.6.4
    noted that under IE realplayer plugin still works fine, button to 'download this video' comes on as before.....
    from what I read retro install will pick up all your bookmarks etc. do no worries there
    naughty, NAUGHTY mozilla people! you were 'bombproof' until today....what happened? good luck sorting it out though!!!! I still luv you!

    "Rebooting" means restarting &, as fruhulda said, that won't cause things to disappear. If you mean you had the hard drive erased & the system reinstalled, you will have to find the original disk with the AppleWorks installer.

  • I moved all my music from c: drive(because it was full) to an external harddrive and now itunes can't find any of my music. Is there a way to get Itunes to find music on external drive without having to place all the music back onto the c: drive? Thanks

    Hopefully you moved the entire iTunes Media (or iTunes Music) folder to a new path on your external drive. Copy your iTunes library folder out to the root of the external drive, e.g. X:\iTunes (where X: is your external drive), then move the media folder inside it. Hold down shift as you start iTUnes and keep holding untila asked to choose or create a library. Choose the library at X:\iTunes\iTunes Library.itl. Should all be good.
    Failing that, download and run my FindTracks script and point it at the new location of your media folder.

  • I backed-up my iphone to my computer and now I can't find any of my music, does anyone know where it went?

    I backed-up my iphone 3GS to my computer and now I can't find any of my music.  I doesn't seem to be anywhere in itunes.  Can anyone help me?

    Backing up the iPhone to the computer won't transfer the music to it; to do that, you need to use the Transfer Purchases function. If you're looking for music already on the computer, search it for files with an extension of mp3, m4a, or m4p.

  • I had to reinstall iTunes, and now I can't transfer all my songs!!!!

    Hello everyone, this is my first and hopefully only post, assuming that I have no more problems with my iTunes/iPod.
    Ok, I recently had to have a new hard drive installed in my computer, and I got it back today. I had to reinstall iTunes, and after doing so I tried to transfer all the songs from my iPod to my new iTunes. All of the songs that I purchased from iTunes transferred without a hitch. I have many songs that I've copied from my CD collection on my iPod, however, and none of these will transfer to my computer now. Can someone please tell me how I can get these songs from my iPod to iTunes without going back and recopying every single CD I own?? Thanks in advance!!

    The transfer of content sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
    Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    Comparison of iPod managers
    TuneJack Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod2PC Windows Only
    iDump Windows Only

    iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide

  • I installed firefox and now I can't find my bookmarks

    I installed firefox-and thought I had imported bookmarks from internet explorer. unfortunately not. is there any way to retrieve them? Without individually retyping then

    Check the Bookmarks menu, is there a folder called "From Internet Explorer", if there is that folder should contain your IE favorites. If they are not there, see the [[Importing favorites and other data from Internet Explorer]] article.

  • I downloaded the newest version of Firefox and now I can not use any of the clickable link tabs in yahoo mail, gmail, or hotmail. Do you know what is causing this.

    Go to msn.com for example: at the top of their page they have clickable link to hotmail. When I upgraded to Firefox 7 this link no longer works. Same thing happens with my yahoo mail, gmail and hotmail. If you open up yahoo mail for example; I can not click on the signout tab.... it doesn't function with firefox 7. I worked prior to uploading new version. I don't have that problem on my windows 7 platform.

    That problem can be caused by the Yahoo! Toolbar that extents too much downwards and covers the top part of the browser window and thus makes links in that part of the screen not clickable.

  • So I have the iPhone 4 and just updated iOS 8.1.2 on my phone using my computer, and now I can't find any pictures or messages from last Tuesday (1/6/15). How would I be able to get it all back?

    I was trying to put more music on my phone, but iTunes said I had to update and restore my phone. The only reason why I update using my computer is because I use up too much space to update using wi-fi, and I'd rather not erase everything to be honest. I started around 5-ish on 1/12/15 and finished around 12-ish on 1/13/15. (I had to keep restarting my computer and phone to get the system update like the troubleshooting website suggested.)The last time I backed up my phone was about a week ago on 1/6/15. But now when I look at my text messages and pictures, everything ends at 1/6/15 as if I never used my phone since then. Honestly, it's really frustrating. I know that you have to back up your phone before updating and everything, but I just wanted to know if there was a way I can get all of my missing stuff back. Maybe I did something wrong?? I'm just hoping there's a way for me to get my pictures and messages back. I don't even really care about the update to be honest lol. Any suggestions would help!!

    You cannot update iPhone 4 to IOS 8.1.2, the highest you can update is IOS 7.1.2.

  • Recently updated iphoto and now I can't find any videos made earlier than the middle of '08. I'm not sure what's going on or how to fix this. I'm fairly clueless about Macs so please help!!

    I'm worried that the videos have disappeared but I'm hoping that the problem is something related to the upgrade and the new version of iphoto being unable to read the videos. I don't remember whether they are avi, mov, or something else and when I try to look in iphoto on my external drive I'm prompted to convert the photo library so the new version of iphoto can read it. I assume that would make it impossible for me to see the videos so I don't want to do it. Thanks for any help!! Kim

    When a movie is imported into iPhoto it's automatically give the keyword "Movie". So create a smart album in your library with the criteria: Keyword is Movie. That will display every movie in your library and let you know if any are missing.

  • 4 won't download, has to be saved and now I can't find it

    I tried to load 4.0 and had to save it and now I can't find it

    You likely had FF 3.6 instead of 6. At the moment, FF 4 is the latest version. If you wish to rollback to an earlier version, you can download your preferred version for your OS here:
    http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/
    FF 4 is the latest and greatest. If you are not experiencing specific problems that force you to roll back to an earlier version, you will probably want to stick with FF 4.
    If you do roll back, you may want to back up your profile for safekeeping:
