I recently had to uninstall and reinstall firefox because I could not open it. Now all my websites and bookmarks are gone and I need to get them back. How?

I have lost all of my most visited websites, bookmarks, and all other data due to reinstalling firefox. I have some files in the Mozilla Firefox folder (C:\Program Files\(x86)\Mozilla Firefox) but none of them are able to be opened when I click Firefox>Bookmarks>Import and Backup>Backup. Is there any way to get all of my information back?

IOBit's software is worse than useless and shouldn't be used. Use Window's built in uninstaller for all install/uninstall processes
Firefox data is saved in your user files, which aren't saved via restore points, so if the information is not there (the article I linked to above would help you find it) then it looks like it was lost because iobit didn't give you an option to save your files. Unless you have a backup of your data somewhere.
You could try a file recovery system, but if you've made changse to your computer since uninstalling (like installing new software, restarting your machine even) it's most likely not going to work.

  • I upgraded to Firefox 4.0 Beta 11 & now all of my bookmarks are gone. I need help getting them back ASAP!!

    After I upgraded to ff 4.0, beta 11 all of my bookmarks disappeared & I haven't been able to get them back. I have tried all of the solutions listed in the help section to restore after upgrade, but none of them work. HELP!!

    Did you restore your phone with itunes or check new phone.  You can always reconnect with itunes and restore your phone to old settings and it should replace everything because it is on your computer

  • I've lost my game toolbars and i can't get them back, how do I get them back?

    I have two FF brousers and one of them was safe mode. I clicked on safe mode and a box popped up and had a couple links on it. I meant to click something else but instead i clicked 'disable toolbars' . I went on my normal FF and my toolbars I had, something called our world and frontierville on facebook, were gone! I need help getting them back and i don't know how to.

    You may have disabled all extension, see Tools > Add-ons > Extensions
    If they appear disabled in Tools > Add-ons > Extensions then you can enable them all or you can delete the files extensions.* (extensions.rdf, extensions.cache, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox [[Profiles|profile folder]] to reset the extensions registry. That should enable all extensions on the next start. New files will be created when required.
    See "Corrupt extension files": http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
    If you see disabled extensions that are not compatible on the next start in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the "Find Updates" button to do a compatibility check.

  • Please i need help very urgent !!! after deleting my exchange account because the company changed the password , I lost 150 200 contacts and i need to get them back very soon ! please help

    Please i need help very urgent !!! after deleting my exchange account because the company changed the password , I lost 150 200 contacts and i need to get them back very soon !  i never backed up on itunes ..please help

    No. The contacts are "owned" by the Exchange server.
    The Exchange server is owned by the company.
    Everything on the Exchange server is owned by the company.
    If you quit or were terminated, and your access to the system has been revoked, then there is nothing you and do at this point. Once you deleted the account from your phone, all of the associated data was deleted.
    NEVER store personal information on company systems.

  • Lost my iPhone 6 Plus images and I need help getting them back.

    I may just have to go to the apple store, but I am going to see if anyone out here can help me out.
    Oct 31st I transferred my SIM from my iPhone 5S to a new iPhone 6 Plus. On December 7th(ish) my new iPhone decided that it would no longer focus on anything that was more than one foot away.
    I was hoping that it would fix itself but it never did. So I went to the Apple Forums and there were some people suggested that wiping out the phone and restoring the system would help.
    Before I wiped out my phone I did a back up. After the phone restored all the images and information came back. The camera started working for a couple clicks then stopped. I wiped out my phone three maybe four more times and it each time the images came back I even wiped out and set it up as a new iPhone and wiped back out and restored with my iCloud and the image still came up!!! ... but the focusing would not work for more than a couple of clicks.
    On December 12 I took it into the iPhone store they said I'd needed a replacement one. Before we removed the "find my phone" and wiped out the device we made sure the phone was backed up. Because I had over  5,500 images on my phone I didn't wait around the store to make sure they all popped up and went home.
    When I got home the phone only showed the 4,200 images I had taken with my iPhone 5S up to October 31st!!! However, under my settings my replacement iPhone 6 Plus shows 5,500 images but I cannot locate them.
    The other thing that is odd is that all my "shared images" from October 31st to December 12th that I took with my 6 Plus are still showing up as well as the ones that I sent via which leads me to think that they are lost out in the iCloud Universe somewhere.
    When logged on to my iCloud.com account it would only allow me to see what is on my current iPhone 6 Plus which includes the images before October 31st and the images I have taken since the iPhone 6 Plus. I cant see any of the images that are on my iPad that are set up under the same account, but it let's me see the icon for the iPad and it also shows me the icon for my other 6 Plus. However, the iCloud website will not allow me to click on the two icons and look at the images.
    I believe that after 30 days from December 12th those images will probably by default be deleted from the iCloud system and I want to make sure that I get them back before they do.
    I understand that apple changed the layout of the images and I did go and look at all my albums... so this not the case.
    I can see my back up from Dec. 9 and Dec 12th and have tried to do the restore on this phone the text and the contacts pull up but the images do not.
    Someone please help me out. I have all the images from our recent Disney World Vacation in there and I would really like to have them back.

    cuz me too same case I have also I lost all my photos 800pics

  • I somehow clicked something and blocked photos on facebook and I want to get them back how do i do this

    photos are blocked I want to get them back
    == I clicked something

    Check the image exceptions: Tools > Options > Content: Load Images: Exceptions - See Options window - Content panel
    A way to see if images are blocked is to click the favicon (Site Identification icon) on the left side of the location bar and click the "More Information" button.
    This will open the Security tab of the Page Info window (also accessible via Tools > Page Info).
    Go to the Media tab of that Page Info window.
    Select the first image and scroll down though the list with the Down arrow.
    If there is a tick-mark in the box Block Images from... then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

  • Iphone would not back up in itunes. "restored" it and now all my contacts are gone...can I get them back?

    while trying to update my version, itunes kept timing out.  I successfully updated another phone w/o a problem.  After 8 hours of attempting and even trying 2 different computers, I decided to "restore"!  My bad!!! Was so frustrated by then I just did it.  Now, phone is as if I took it out of the box!  Contacts are gone, calendar entries gone etc.  Is there any way to get back that info?  I checked in outlook, but it appears that none of my back-ups ever "took". Outlook in empty!

    The only way you can get back some info is to restore your phone from the most recent backup.  Naturally, any data added to the phone since that last backup and current, will be gone.

  • I accidently hit "forget about this site" in my history, and it deleted all related sites to it. i desperately need to get them back. how do i retrieve the forgotten or deleted sites from history in firefox4 ?

    i use the firefox4, and when i went to my history, i right clicked to delete a certain site, and accidentally hit the last option; (forget about this site) which deleted all the similar sites to the one i clicked! i.e. if it were facebook site, all facebook sites were gone..
    '''how do i retrieve the sites i lost in history?'''

    Tony, thnx for the prompt response,,
    however, i didn't delete. i hit the below option which reads; "forget about this site" which is the last item in the list that appears when you right click any site in history.
    i was told there are open source programs that can retrieve it.
    '''how sure r u that they cannot be recovered?!'''

  • HELP! Lost all notes with first Sync and need to get them back

    I had some very important notes on my phone and I need to get them back. Here is some background info.
    I bought a new MacBook Pro a couple months ago. I previously have a Sony Vaio. Shortly after I upgraded from 3G to 3GS. Since I couldn't get my playlists from my old laptop to my new laptop, I synced my phone with my old laptop and not my new one for fear of losing everything.
    Today, I finally figured out to get my playlists on my MacBook and then I synced my iphone as usual and upgraded to 3.0.1. Of course, I also upgraded to iTunes 9 right beforehand and it had a couple new options for syncing notes and merging data. I have never synced notes before. Everything else seems fine on my phone except for this. I tried restoring to backup, however, I think that iTunes created a new backup on my Macbook since it was the first time I have synced my phone with it. I no longer have my old laptop. I did transfer all my old files to my mac.
    What can I do?! How can I get them back?!

    If you use the Time Machine on your computer then you can try to find an older copy of the places.sqlite file.

    There are also JSON backups in the bookmarkbackups folder that you can use to restore bookmarks.

  • TS1702 All my entries in 'notes' have disappeared.  I had several different 'notes' entered over the last few months but when I opened the app recently, all of them had gone.  Any way of getting them back?

    All my entries in 'notes' have disappeared.  I had several different 'notes' entered over the last few months but when I opened the app recently, all of them had gone.  Any way of getting them back?  This has happened once before but they just popped back in a few days later.  No such luck this time.

    Not Charge
    - See:    
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
    - Try another cable.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic. I suspect this is your problem
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    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.

    You should be importing pics to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera.  Nothing should only be on your iphone.  You should keep everything on your computer.
    If you have failed to do this, then they are gone.
    You can try restoring from backup.
