I lost my sync key when my harddrive was wiped, so how do I get a new sync key without deleting my saved data?

I synced my firefox bookmarks so that I could reupload them if ever my computer got wiped, so I don't have a second device with the sync key on it. I made the mistake of only saving the sync key on the computer. I just got my computer back from the shop and they wiped my operating system without asking. Now I don't have my sync key and the only way to access my sync account requires that I change the sync key and delete all the data saved on the server. How can I get access to my data?

Sorry, without your Sync Key your data is worthless, it can't be de-crypted, and creating a new Sync Key will wipe it from the Sync server.
BTW, the Firefox Sync service isn't meant for "backups", it is meant to synchronize your Firefox data between different "devices". Any chance you had more than one device setup with that Sync account? If so, you can use the Sync Key from that device.

    Not true at all.
    You only buy the right to your own personal use.
    You do NOT have the right to distribute to others.
    This is illegal.  There is no doubt about it

    If you have lost your serial number then the first thing you should do is to check your DVD if it is attached on the sleeve of the DVD.  Also, if you registered your product withy Adobe then your account should have a record of your serial number.
    If neither of this apply then you can browse the Amazon website and look for a bargain on PSE12.  PSE12 runs better on new computers and you also get updates for new cameras.
    It looks like you have to buy a new product because serial numbers are not something you can get free of charge here.
    Good luck.

  • We lost our yahoo bookmarks when updating to Firefox 8. How can we get them back?

    we updated firefox for yahoo and we have lost our yahoo bookmarks. I can't find them anywhere under bookmarks.

    Tyler,
    No, it isn't, otherwise I wouldn't have lost it all of a sudden. I knew the 27.0.1 update was coming, and thinking back now I think this is what happened:
    I don't think it asked me about import, it just started the automatic import process (with compatibility check). This import process shows a dialogue on-screen, and I think when moving windows around I wasn't expecting that one to come up - as I did not initiate the update process and only very recently modified my preferences to automatically update instead of asking me first (I changed that back already).
    So I guess what happened is that I accidentally cancelled the automatic import process.
    So in that case my question is: Where can I find my pre-update profile?

  • How can I get a new serial key for Photoshop Lightroom 4 student & teacher edition?

    I bought a new laptop, and I Lost my serial key to my copy of Lightroom 4 student & teach edition. If somebody can help me, that would be great

    If you took the time to register Lightroom with Adobe then you can log into your Adobe account and get your serial number from there. If you still have the old computer with Lightroom installed on it the serial number can be retrieved from C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Lightroom. Open the lrreg file using Notepad and you can read the number. Note that the ProgramData folder is a hidden folder. It will be necessary for you to change so that your system browser will show hidden folders. If you are on a Mac the path is /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Lightroom.

    You don't need to delete anything from your phone or you old computer.
    Copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder from old computer or backup to /Music/ on new computer.
    If you cannot use the old computer or don't have a backup...
    -> Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device
    Then immediately make a backup of your new computer.
    Get an external drive and plug it in and use -> Time Machine

  • Harddrive was wiped out, how do I restore my iPhoto pics?

    My harddrive started acting up a few weeks ago, took my MacBook Pro into get looked at, I'm out of warranty, so they rebooted the harddrive. How do I restore my iPhoto pictures? There are tons of pics that strictly went to iphoto and now I have nothing.

    so they rebooted the harddrive.
    Do you mean, the hard drive was replaced by a new drive? Then you need to restore your iPhoto Library from your backup copy of your computer. The iPhoto Library is by default in the folder "Pictures" in your homefolder. You will recognize it by the "fan of Pictures" icon.

  • I updated my iphone and lost all my notes there is lots of important notes, how can i get em back especially that on itunes when i sync my iphone a note appear that there is no back up on icloud,and i cannot restore?

    i updated my iphone and lost all my notes there is lots of important notes, how can i get em back especially that on itunes when i sync my iphone a note appear that there is no back up on icloud,and i cannot restore?

    Without a backup on iCloud, there needs to be another device using the same @icloud address that is syncing to the notes.  Without that, there is no way to go back in time to create a backup before performing a major update.

    Drag the Safari icon straight up and off the Dock so it goes, "poof" ...
    Now click and hold the Safari app in the Applications folder and drag that to the Dock.
    See if you can open a webpage in Safari.

    I installed Win 8.1 on my computer and Now need to reinstall Adobe X.  I lost my key, how do I get a new one?

    The serial number, you mean? That's kind of an expensive thing to lose. If you registered, it will be in your account info on Adobe's web site. Hope you did, good luck!

    I synced a movie from my laptop 2 my iPad but lost some music video I purchased from iTunes store. How can I get them back ? Thxs

    Sorry, but movies cannot be downloaded more than once without charge, so if you don't have a viable backup, you may be out of luck. You can, however, contact the iTunes Store, explain the situation, and see if they can make an exception for you.
