I have no folder for firefox in application support... where can I find the stored passwords from my time machine back up!!?

Everywhere I look it says I should have a folder for Firefox in library/applicationsupport/ BUT I don't have one! I'm looking to restore passwords from a time machine back up but there's no Firefox folder so I don't where to look. I even did a fresh install of Firefox on my mac and even then it never created a Firefox folder in library/applicationsupport/... they must be store somewhere in my back up...!?

Hello kamilr, check also in :
~/Library/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/<profile folder>
The tilde character (~) refers to the current user's Home folder, so ~/Library is the /Macintosh HD/Users/<username>/Library folder.
note that in mac 10.7 and above, the ~/Library folder is hidden by default, see : http://kb.mozillazine.org/Show_hidden_files_and_folders#Mac_OS_X
when you find the file seek for '''key3.db''' and '''signons.sqlite''' files.
Your passwords are stored in two different files, both of which are required:
'''key3.db''' - This file stores your key database for your passwords. To transfer your saved passwords, you must copy this file along with the following file.
'''signons.sqlite''' - Saved passwords
thank you

  • Does Mozilla have a lifecycle policy for Firefox? If not, where can I find the end of life support dates?

    I'm trying to find the dates in which Mozilla stopped supporting versions dating back to Firefox 1.5.

    Basically, support ends when Mozilla decides to end it. There are parameters as to when support will end, but "stuff happens" and sometimes they postpone the EOL life date when they feel a security update is warranted.
    I found this via a Google Search for Firefox 1.5 EOL. <br />
    http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=389977
    For Firefox 2.0 it was like 12-29-2008, when 2.0.0.20 was released. That version is dated 12-17-2008.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mozilla_Firefox#Release_history <br />
    Has the release dates for each version, but not the EOL dates.

  • On installation of Firefox 4 beta, it tells me that it won't run on my Mac. When I go to system requirements, it takes me to a page for Firefox3.6 requirements. Where can I find the requirements for the beta?

    The link to system requirements for Firefox 4 beta takes you to a page that gives you the requirements for Firefox 3.6 instead. I assume that the requirements for the beta are different as I can't seem to install the beta on my Macs. Where can I find the beta system requirements?

    I never expected Mozilla to neglect the users of Apple's PowerPC (PPC) computers, while still supporting much older operating environments such as Windows XP. So, I should just throw away a $6,000 system, which is still fast and functional, and contribute masses of heavy metals to land-fills because…?
    I'm hurt and confused after supporting Firefox for many years — installing and using it not only on my own computers but on most of my customers' computers. Now I have to tell my customers with PPC Macs they can't have a secure cross-platform browsing experience from Mozilla. They'll have to learn to use some other browser, or buy a new computer.
    If one doesn't buy a new computer every year, one doesn't deserve Firefox 4. This is sort of sounding more like a Microsoft™© doctrine. (But wait, I can still have Firefox 4 on a ''SERIOUSLY CRAPPY WINDBLOWS XP pile of rubbish?!'') Please open your eyes Mozilla. This just doesn't make sense.

  • Where can I find the WEP password for my older airport extreme?

    I have a log-in password for my home network, but my HP printer wants a "WEP Password."  I don't know where to find that.  Any ideas?

    It's a brand new printer, just out of the box.  It should connect via wireless, but it doesn't recognize the network security password.  The router is an old Airport Extreme, the kind that looks like a big white chocolate chip.  I tried through the airport utility to check on its security settings, but the dialog box said this version of airport utility didn't support the router and to download airport utility 5.6.  I did that, but it wouldn't let me do anything, not even update to 5.7, which it recommended, because it didn't recognize the password.  The password works to access the network from other devices, though.
    I suppose the next thing to try is to reset the router completely, but I hesitate to do that because I am not sure it will let me back into my network after I do that.  Since it only recognizes its password sometimes.

  • Where can I find the serial key for my creative cloud academic membership?

    I installed after effects with creative cloud login-ed with my academic membership ID. But when I try to start the application of after effects, there comes a dialog ask me to activate the software with serial key, WHY? I have never faced this problem on other adobe application.
    Where can I find the serial key of my academic membership?

    Hi Yuki,
    Creative cloud do not need a serial number. it will be using your Adobe ID on which you have purchased the creative cloud membership.
    So you need to login with your Adobe ID and password to activate the cloud membership.
    Same issue also has been discussed in the below mentioned links.
    Re: Where is the serial number for Creative Cloud membership?
         Creative Cloud applications ask for serial number
    Let me know if it helps.
    Thanks!

  • Where can I find the file sizes for each application before downloading?

    Where can I find the file sizes for each application before downloading? I have limited download (525 MBs/day) because of Hughsnet and I need to know each applications total size before I download.

    You can go to the trial page to get an estimated size.  As the Creative Cloud products change over time though this may become less accurate.
    If you are on a limited bandwidth account then you may want to consider purchasing a perpetual copy of Creative Suite 6 as opposed to subscribing to the Creative Cloud.

  • Where can i find the option of, when i close firefox that he saves my current tabs and when i open my firefox i will still have them?

    Where can i find the option of, when i close firefox that he saves my current tabs and when i open my firefox i will still have them?

    Firefox 4 and later versions save the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session.<br />
    Use "File > Exit" or "Firefox > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit Firefox") if you want to restore multiple windows or otherwise have problems with restoring tabs.<br />
    You can use "History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session at any time.<br />
    You may need to click the orange/gray Firefox button to see History.<br />
    There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default <b>about:home</b> Home page.
    Using the "Show my windows and tabs from last time" setting is a more reliable way to restore session data.
    * Tools > Options > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show my windows and tabs from last time"
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Menu_differences
    Make sure that you do not use "Clear Recent History" to clear the 'Browsing History' when you close Firefox.

  • I had a new hard drive fitted to my imac and restored it from my time machine back when I try to open itunes I get this message "the itunes library extras.itdb file is locked, on a locked disk, or you do not have write permission for this file"

    I had a new hard drive fitted to my imac and restored it from my time machine back up on an external hard drive when I try to open itunes I get this message "the itunes library extras.itdb file is locked, on a locked disk, or you do not have write permission for this file"

    To solve this issue all I did was check to ensure that the file permissions were set as described by the earlier posts, followed by simply deleting the iTunes Library Genius.itdb file.  Once the file was deleted I was able to open iTunes without difficulty.  Note that I am running Windows 8.  Hope this helps!

Tutorials are included for each of the products on the respective sections of the website. For instance, this site Website builder | Download free Adobe Dreamweaver CC trial gives you access to the trial version as well as tutorials.
    I suggest that you go to http://creative.adobe.com and explore the various options available.

    Call Apple with the Serial and they will send you the ones that came with the Mac. Or search the Net.

    My son (3yrs) just deleted the iPod application to watch videos and to listen to music on my iPhone 3Gs. Where can I find the download to reinstall this vital application? The fact that the application is called iPod and there are millions of hits for the iPod makes the search very tedious...
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    It can't be deleted, it's been moved to another page where you most likely can't see/find it, so do this: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout...see if you see it now.
