I have been browsing the internet for about 3 to 4 hours, there have been numerous crashes, but there is no history retained what can I do?

just checked the settings ... they have been reset to never retain history.... previous history is still there...... settings reset to always retain history & history has begun to collect again.
Is there any way to get my history back?
why did it happen?
is it likely to happen again?

History that is lost can't be retrieved, but if Firefox is currently keeping history then it should be fine for now.
You would need an older copy of the places.sqlite database file to get the lost history back.

  • HT4623 My new iPad mini won't install the update 7.0.6 until it has finished restoring from the iCloud backup.  What do I do to make the restoration complete? I have been using the mini for about a month.

    I have downloaded iOS 7.0.6 but it will not install until the ipad is finished restoring from the Icloud backup.  I've been using the mini for about a month, so why is it not completely restored?  How do I make the restore process finish?

    When and where was the iPad/charger purchased? It's covered by a 1-year warranty.
    The problem may be the USB cable.

  • HT204053 Ugh.  How do I get iCloud on my iPhone?  I have been using my iPhone for about a year and I have an iCloud account but it is useless since nothing syncs to nothing else.  Obviously I don't know what I am doing.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Have you logged into your iCloud yet on your phone, in settings > iCloud.

    If you have iWork 09, then the latest version should be available for free in the Mac App Store. If you have the new version on your iPad, then you'll need the new version on your Mac as well. The whole point of the latest version is that you can access and edit your files equally on iPad/iPhone, Mac, and also through the iCloud website.

    Your contacts are helpd on the server, so if you sign out from your iCloud account and sign into another one they will disappear. If you sign back into the original account they will reappear.

  • Hi, my apple ID verification email does not contain the link for me to click in order to verify my account. Re-submitting has not worked, what can i do to verify/activate my account

    Hi, my apple ID verification email does not contain the link for me to click in order to verify my account. Re-submitting has not worked, what can i do to verify/activate my account in order to access Icloud?

    If you want to change your iCloud ID or password on your phone go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account, then sign back in with your updated information.  Note: this only deletes the account and any synced data from your phone, not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account and not changing accounts it will be synced back to your device when you sign back in.

  • Wireless Router RG54SE II disconnecting from the Internet in about 2-3 hours

    I have a problem with my router in which i can't connect on the internet with it anymore.
    My connection type is PPPoE and it worked fine for about 2 years, now i'm getting disconnects and after that i have to unplug it and wait about an hour to reconnect.
    If i put the internet cable into my computer it works fine.(I guess it is not an ISP problem and i tried with another router and works correctly)
    I have tried to reset my router, but it won't reset (pressing the button for about 20 sec and still remembers the modifications made and not factory default)
    I have tried to upgrade my firmware but it says that the file length isn't correct. (file downloaded from http://faenl.msi.com/index.php?dir=Networking/RG54SE%20II%20%28Wireless%20Kit%29/firmware/ ).
    Can i get some help? What shall i do? Do i need to buy a new router, because this is broken?

    Well Thanks for the replies..
    I came home late last night and shut down both computers.. and re-flashed the firmware again to the router.. disconnected the router after re-setting it back to Factory and left it and the computers and DSL modem unplugged all night . I started this morning with a clear head and a little more paitence. 
    I open the lynksys advisor program it came with and followed the initial instructions and set it up exactly as if it was a brand new install. I re-set the router for all my configurations such as my Security Camera DVR so I can monitor my cameras remotely.. and for Torrents for both my desktops..I also flashed the firmware again just for good measures figuring it cant hurt. So far I have been without a disconnect from the internet for over 6 hours.. let me keep my fingers crossed and it stays this way (Connected 24/7) .. I used channel 11 for the router this time as last time I believe I was using channel 6.. ? 
    So far so good.. dont ask me what I did to correct it .. just started from scratch and let the router and modem stay powered off all night .. maybe that did the trick ? I dunno and dont care as long as I now have steady interent again.. hope I didnt jinx myself and post this too soon.. will keep you posted if it happens again. I hope not.

  • HT1695 I am at home and have  a wireless router on my DSL line.  I have been using the iPad for about a month without difficulty and tonight it will not connect.  I do not understand why and yes, I am electronically challenged so be gentle!

    I recently purchased an iPad after using a laptop and PC for years.  I use a wireless router connected to a DSL line at home and have been using the iPad without difficulty for about a month and tonight it will not connect to the Internet.  There is not a problem with the DSL or router.  I am using the laptop now.  Could someone please give this eectnically challenged individual assistance?

    1. Turn router off for 30 seconds and on again
    2. Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

  • My new ipad 2 freezes after using the internet for about 15 minutes. It is properly connected to the network and works fine after I re-start it but it is very annoying to have to re-start it every so often. All other laptops on the internet work fine.

    My ipad 2 freezes when using the internet. Re-starting the ipad fixes the problem but it is very annoying to have to do this. I have tried all of the trouble shooting suggestions including re-joining the network. All other laptops work fine on my network. I think there is something wrong with my new ipad.

    I recommend two things before taking your iPad back to the Apple Store.
    1.  Fully close safari, by going to your home screen, then double tapping your home button to bring up your most recently used Apps.  Using your finger, hold it on any of the used Apps until they jiggle.  At this point, you'll see a to the top left of each App.  Touch the sign on Safari, which will fully close it.
    Then.......
    2.  Reboot your iPad.  Press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time for at least 10 seconds (hold past the red slider to shut down) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad will restart.  You won't lose any settings or data.
    If that does not help, then make an appointment at the Apple store to have your iPad checked.

  • HT5254 I have gone through the process for "Malware Removal Tool" and I cannot find a place where to make this tool work? Can somebody tell me?

    First of all, I would like to know how do I know that I have "Flashback Malware" in my computer? - I have decided to install the removla tool just in case, but cannot find anywhere to activate and start the process of cleaning or detecting this malware. Will appreciate some advise on this subject.

    Did you install it via Software Update or did you download the Apple malware installer software? If so, there's nothing for you to do. It's all automatic. There are no programs to run. See:
    Helpful Links Regarding Flashback Trojan
    Visit Thomas Reed's site for insight and help: Mac Malware Guide
    A Google search can reveal a variety of alternatives on how the remove the trojan should your computer get infected. This can get you started. However, be careful about what you do as new variants of the malware circumvent the efforts of earlier tools.
    Also see Apple's article About Flashback malware.
    Apple has released Java updates for Snow Leopard and Lion users:
    Java for OS X Lion 2012-003; available only for users of Lion with Java installed.
    Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 8; available only for users of Snow Leopard.
    Flashback malware removal tool; available only for users of Lion without Java installed.
    Install whichever shows up in Software Update. It removes the malware (if present), updates Java (if present) and tightens up Java settings for the future.  You may download from Apple's web site instead of using Software Update, but it's important to know which one to get, because the other two won't work for you.

  • HT1688 I have tried all the fixes for imessage, no luck? iPhone 5, iOS 7.2, will there be a fix soon?

    Is there a real fix? I can't get imessage to work? I have tried all fixes listed? Ipad works fine sin iOS update, just issue with iPhone 5 and iOS 7.2?

    This is a user forum.  Why would you ask a question that only Apple could provide the answer?
    FYI, I'm having no issues with the battery on my iDevice with iOS 7, nor does anyone I know.  Don't hold your breath waiting for a fix to an issue that probably doesn't iexist.  Have you bothered to read through the forums and try the recommendations provided to extend the battery life?
