I start firefox and all my settings are gone. Why?

Firefox reset all my settings. For example the toolbar layout.

Check that you haven't created a new profile.

Uninstalled firefox and ALL sortcut icons are gone off my laptop..HOW do I get them back?

I installed firefox and had problems with my laptop running slow so I uninsalled it andnow all icons are gone

Which icons are gone?
If you uninstalled Firefox and removed your personal data then you have lost the Firefox Profile Folder with the bookmarks and other personal data.

If you do not have a backup then that data is lost.

"Updated" Firefox and all my bookmarks are gone

I've already clicked on "show all bookmarks"-- but the library's empty. So I clicked on Import and Backup, and Restore the previous bookmarks to earlier today (and yesterday and the day before and...), and after being told this will replace the current list, I get a "unable to process backup file" dialogue box. I also can't find where it is on my C: drive (is it not saved under program files/mozilla firefox?). Where did they go, and how do I get them back? I can't lose them!!
I'm using Vista, Service Pack 2

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

How did your pictures get there in the first place? If they were synched to your phone from iPhoto, just synch them on again.

I updated Firefox and all my bookmarks are lost; how do I restore them?

I just updated Firefox to 8.0.1., and all my bookmarks are gone. NONE of the suggested articles dealt with this: How do I restore the bookmarks? And why wasn't I asked during the update if I would like to have the bookmarks imported? Also why wasn't I warned that I would lose them all? Thank you.

Use the following to see if you have more than one profile or your lost bookmarks
in the bookmarkbackups folder.
Type about:support into the location bar the click on "Open Containing Folder" that will take you to your current profile. The bookmarkbackups folder has 5 backups (.json files) any of which can be restored with Firefox up through restore bookmarks.
but if you created a new folder see ...next...
=========================================================
(continued...)
Lost passwords, bookmarks, is a profile issue. Sounds like you
created a new profile instead of using your existing profile.
Open your profile folder and go up one level to see if you have multiple profiles ...
:  HELP (Alt+H) --> Troubleshooting information... --> "Open Containing Folder" (or type about:support into the location bar then click on "Open Containing Folder")
:note the filename, then go up one level to see if you have additional profile folders.
Check the dates of places.sqlite (new in Fx3) for update date just before you went to Fx6 Since it is updated each time you close your session that would be a good place to check.
If you find one then note its filename (the profile name is part of the filename) and then start the Firefox Profile Manager and open with that profile.
To prevent the problem in the future don't let Firefox start up for you after downloading and installing a new version. Instead exit the install at that last point, and restart Firefox in your normal manner.

Trying to publsh changes to my website. I get a message "There was an error communicating with the FTP server. Try again later, or check with your service provider." I did, and all my settings are correct, but still cannot publish

Trying to publsh changes to my website. I get a message "There was an error communicating with the FTP server. Try again later, or check with your service provider." I did, and all my settings are correct, but still cannot publish.
Any other ideas?

Most likely you are suffering from a bug in iWeb that doesn't let you publish websites if an image you have added to your site begins with space. You can either search for that image and remove it.

After restarting firefox all tabs go under startup window and all other windows are gone

ok, so i have 5 or 6 different windows with firefox's new tab feature. Each windows has about 6 websites/tabs in them. Whenever i close and reopen firefox all the tabs go under the startup window, and all other windows are gone.
Should firefox 4 not restart with all windows and all tabs under the correct window?

If you're sure Settings are correct then do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears)
Note: You will not lose any data.

Hello again V.K,
I'm taking the computer to assistance as suggested. Even tho I'm almost 100% sure that this isn't a hardware issue.
Here is why I'm not wasting my time on my affirmative. I'm computer science bacharelor, I know about computer architeture and S.O architeture and also I'm computer developer for more than 10 years now. All behaviors presented have no connection with hardware problems. What I'm trying to say is that I'm not just saying things for saying, I have a logic behind what I say.
For a short example, whenever mouse right click stops working on a specific window/software, if I click on the window top border and drag it around and go back to the window content, the click works again.
Also, my keyboard and mouse work via usb. Usb is working normally. If I plug a usb memory stick it shows that usb is working as it should be.
On windows, right button click is also not working inside any software window, but if I click on start button, icons on desktop, anything on windows epxlorer, it works as it should be. Isnt't there bootcamp underneath windows ?
on top of it, it's a brand new mac, i have it for 5 months.
All these people that have the same problem, do u think all of them have hardware issues? Do you think Apple would keep releasing new computers with hardware problems and they wont have any information/recall for them? and worst, the problems start in a random date ?
This is my first mac and all these problems, being hardware or not, makes me lose all confidence on Apple products.
Davi.

Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!

I just updated my iPod touch and all my pictures are gone!!! How do I get them back? Please help!!!

I just updated my iPod touch 4th generation to iOS 6.0.1 and all my pictures are gone!!! Everything else is there but my pictures! How do I get them back? Please help!!!

If the photos were i your iPod's Camera Roll album (taken by or saved to the iPod you can:
- If your PhotoStream is on you can get the last 30 days worth back. See that topic here:
iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
- Or you can restore from backup if you backed up when the photos were on the iPod.
If the photos were synced to the iPod then you have to get them from where you got them the first time.
