I reinstalled my Snow Leopard and now I can't retrieve my saved passwords.

The save passwords option is no longer present in my toolbar. My old saved passwords are not there in Firefox preferences. Nothing I can find on the help site seems to help, including live chat. I did find the two files Firefox says are connected to saved passwords in the material I back-up before I re-installed my operating system. I dragged them to the corresponding location on my new hard drive, and that didn't do anything.

You need to update to Safari 5.1
Safari 5.0.6 is for Leopard v10.5.8, see system requirements here > Safari 5.0.6

  • Upgraded to Snow Leopard and now I can't back up

    Recently I upgraded to Snow Leopard after my hard drive crashed in my MacPro. I had the hard drive replaced and then imported the old information to the new one via Time Machine. All went well. I have been backing up on a Lacie 160 GB external hard drive for years, and like it's designed to, when it's full, the older backups got deleted to make way for new ones.
    Now when I try to back up to the Lacie since the upgrade and the installation of the new internal drive, I get error messages that tell me the device is too full, and I cannot back up.
    Does anyone know how I would go about solving this? My thought it that by deleting all of the old backups on my Lacie, I would then free up enough space for Tim Machine to start working like normal again. But I do not want to do this until I talk with people more experienced than I about the advisability of this action. Any advice?

    Hi, and welcome to the forums.

  • I installed Snow Leopard and now I can't import pictures from iphone or memory chip.

    I installed Snow Leopard to my Mac Book Pro and when I went to import pictures from my Iphone 4 to the Mac I received a message that it could not read the files.  I also tried importing pictures from my camera's memory card and got the same error.  This hadn't happened before the installation of Snow Leopard, what could it be?

    update SnowLeopard to its latest version, v 10.6.8, and alongside that also your iTunes to v10.5
    Use disk utility to repair the OS permissions after all updates are in place.

  • Help please! I have just installed Snow Leopard and now I can't access my gmail account. I can complete the sign in boxes ok but the blue indicator bar freezes and prevents access to my emails.

    I have just installed Snow Leopard, (10.6.3) onto my Macbook Pro and so far it seems to be working fine except that I can't access my gmail account. I can sign in but the blue opening indicator freezes near the end and I can get no further. I'm a bit of a novice at this stuff - help please!

    I would run the combo update to get to 10.6.8 in order to get the latest security updates and so forth. Then run Software Update until you system is current.

  • I've installed snow leopard and now my MX860 won't scan

    I've recently installed snow leopard and now my Canon MX860 won't scan.  I've reinstalled the scan driver from the Canon website.  Any other ideas?

    I suggest that you open Print & Fax, select the MX860 under the scanner heading and remove it using the minus button. Then, still in Print & Fax, click the plus button to add the scanner again. The Add Printer browser will appear and with the Default icon selected the MX860 should appear as a printer and a scanner. Select the scanner entry and ensure the Print Using menu changes to Canon MX860 series. Click Add to complete the creation of the new scanner queue. Now test the new scanner by selecting it in the Print & Fax > Scanners list and then pressing Open Scanner.

  • Updated to snow leopard and now get blue screen

    Hi there,
    I recently updated to snow leopard and now I get blue screen on start-up.
    I manage to get to enter my password and then to my desktop for a few seconds before it flicks back to my login.
    I tried using disk utility from the install disc and it said HD appears to be ok. But it hasn't solved the problem.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated
    Thanks

  • IPhoto says it won't import photos from my Fujifilm Finepix S1000 camera because it's the wrong format (jpeg).  It always has before... but I upgraded to Lion then went back to Snow Leopard and now it's not working.  Suggestions?  Thanks!

    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

  • I installed snow leopard and now videos on my Xfinity home page won't play

    I installed snow leopard and now videos on my Xfinity home page won't play

    You may be in the same boat as me.
    I deliberately bought a refurb Feb 2011 MacBook Pro, because it would have originally shipped with Snow Leopard. I have to run an application for my job, which does not run under Lion.
    Unfortunately, Apple is now upgrading all Snow Leopard machines, before selling them as refurbs. I purchased a legal copy of Snow Leopard, and have tried various downgrade solutions that I found posted on the net, without success. No matter what I do, it always goes into "three beep mode" after trying to install Snow Leopard.
    The latest development came this evening, while I was talking to the "geniuses" at Apple. Apparently, there is now a firmware revision that loads the first time you run Software Update under Lion, and it locks the machine so that it can't revert to Snow Leopard.
    The only option they have been able to offer me so far, is to return the machine and get a refund. This is maddening, as I HAVE to have a Snow Leopard machine, and can't find any other way to purchase one.

  • My 'old' files have been backed up onto time capsule (Leopard), I have upgraded to Lion (thro snow leopard) and now checking back to retosre some old files i can't see or access beyond the date I upgraded to Lion? Help please?

    Use the manual methods.. but it is possible for TM to wipe the old files in trying to fit into the space.
    Try Q16.. but read all the section 14-17

  • I recently upgraded to snow leopard and now every time i open iCal i get multiple events to update in iCal

    I recently upgraded to snow leopard and now every time i open iCal i get multiple events to update in iCal.  Except I don't know where these are coming from or why.   I've check iCal preferences and Help - can't find a way to stop this from happening automatically.  Any Clues?  Also, some of the events are already on my calendar and have been for quite some time.

    Greetings,
    What do you mean by "events to update"?  Do you mean invites to new events or changes to existing invites?
    Troubleshooting:
    1. Your profile indicates you are running 10.6.7, 10.6.8 is the current version Apple > Software update.
    2. First make an iCal backup:  Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal 1 at a time highlighting it's name and then going to File Export > Export and saving the resulting calendar file to a logical location for safekeeping.
    3. Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
    Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
    Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
    Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
    ---NOTE: Removing these files may remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
    3. Launch iCal and test.
    Hope that helps!

  • Upgraded To Snow Leopard And Now The Mic Is Not Working

    I upgraded to Snow Leopard, and now my mic input is not woking on my 2 year old MacBook Pro. Can you tell me how to fix it?

    Dainis,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    You haven't provided much information so there is no way for us to trouble shoot your issue. I'm guessing you plugged a mic into the port, if so go to manufacturer of the mic's web site and see if that device is Snow Leopard compatible. Otherwise our hands are tied on how to help you.
    Regards,

    Your profile says OS 10.5.8, Snow Leopard is 10.6.
    After installing Snow Leopard, did you do a software update? Apple menu / Software update ..
    If you have not run it yet, do so. It will give you the highest versions of Snow Leopard and Safari. That might help.
