Lost all passwords suddenly

i used to sync all my passwords earlier but now they are not syncing,it was untick when i found that i could not get to use the saved passwords.what could have caused to loose all my passwords and i want to recover ,my lost passwords,anyone help me please .?

I highly doubt that. Whenever an application tries to access the keychain for the first time, OS X requires that you authorize it.
There is no reason that VB would have needed to do this in the past, so OS X would have asked you to allow VB to access the keychain, unless there were some serious permissions issues.
I really am not sure what happened to tell you the truth.
Maybe a look at the logs from that time would do some good. Was there anything funny trying to access the keychain?

Contacts lost all data suddenly.

My Contacts lost all data suddenly today. I upgraded to 10.8.2 this afternoon. Could that have caused it? Can I do to retrieve my data?

I found the hidden data file but get messge "There is no application set to open the document "AddressBook.data." and I have not been able to choose one that works.
My latest attempt was to go to ~library/Application Support/addressbook. Instuctions said to remove "AddressBook.data" and "AddressBook.data.previous" to another spot for safety, then copy "AddressBook.data.previous" back into the file. Nothing happened.
Any other ideas?

ICal server lost all delegation suddenly & day by day - 10.6.8 OSX server

I really want to say how bad iCal Server is. It always lost all delegation after there are more then 10 people were setup in the delegation.
And it always lost connection, lost delegation, and never smooth. It is so bad that I would like to stop using this.
Is there anyone who know how to config it and make it better?

Oh my goodness, i have the same issue and searching on resolution.

Lost All Passwords on Upgrade to FF33

Clicked update Firefox and when FF restarted all my passwords were gone. I've SYNC activated, everything is there, except the passwords.
I use firefox for long time now, but this makes me want to change and never come back. It's free, it's open source and has been awesome until this stupid bug ???
I'm very disappointed with firefox and the team behind this, shame on you.

Firefox 32 and later builds store the passwords in the logins.json file in the profile folder and no longer use the signons.sqlite file that has been used before (the matching key3.db file is still needed).
If you still have the signons.sqlite file used in previous Firefox versions then you can try to force Firefox to migrate the passwords saved in that file (you will lose passwords saved in Firefox 32+ versions).
You can force Firefox to reimport the passwords from the signons.sqlite file and rebuild the logins.json file with these steps:
* reset the signon.importedFromSqlite pref on the about:config page to the default value via the right-click context menu
* delete the logins.json file in the Firefox profile folder with Firefox closed
When you restart Firefox then you should have the signon.importedFromSqlite pref with the value set to true and you should have the passwords imported in the Password Manager unless there may have been errors.
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar.
You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.

Mail lost all passwords and has taken all accounts offline

Using OS 10.9.4, Mail Version 7.3 (1878.6) and Keychain Version 9.0 (55153)
My mail went offline Saturday and I haven't been able to get back into it. I have verified access into all the accounts using Browser based access so have ruled out their being server issues etc.
Chrome kept asking me for passwords from keychain after the latest OS updates, I checked with Keychain and it stated that my Keychain file needed be repaired, so I selected repair, Chrome fixed and no longer asks. However now I cannot get into Mac Mail, all accounts are shown offline, it won't store any passwords and repeatedly asks me for passwords if I try and update or take the mailboxes on line.
If I go into Keychain I cannot unlock the keychain (ie click the padlock to unlock the login keychain) and I have nothing showing..
Is there any known issues with keychain? I don't know enough about it to try things without risking breaking it...
Any suggestions gratefully received.
Graham

Back up all data.
Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select Change Settings for Keychain "login". In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
From the menu bar, select
Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
If the box marked Keep login keychain unlocked is not checked, check it.
Select
Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.

I updated Firefox to 32.0.2 and lost all passwords. Oddly still have all bookmarks. How can I recover the old passwords?

The title sums it up, if there's more information I need to provide please let me know. Currently when I look up passwords using the password manager in tools, options, security, show passwords it is empty. Hoping there's a way to restore all of the old passwords.

Your System Details list shows that you have a user.js file in the profile folder to initialize prefs each time Firefox starts.
The user.js file is only present if you or other software has created this file and normally it wouldn't be there.
You can check its content with a plain text editor (right-click: Open with) if you didn't create this file yourself.
The user.js file is read each time Firefox is started and initializes preferences to the value specified in this file, so preferences set via user.js can only be changed temporarily for the current session.
You can delete possible user.js and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename (or delete) the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in the current Firefox release.

I've lost all passwords, bookmarks. Maybe saved on external hdd. What to do??

File permissions fouled up. Transferred all files to an external hard drive, then factory reset Windows 7, gave the new administrator permissions on all laptop files and external hard drive files. Installed new Firefox browser, read tons of articles on firefox file transfer, implemented to no avail. Is there a file transfer wizard that I can use, or alternative solution?
Thanks

See if this helps you.

Last night, mail suddenly lost all my emails, which were stored in mailboxes. What happened and how can I find my lost files? I have the latest MacBookPro, running Lion 10.7.2 all software updates installed

Last night the mail application from Apple lost all my old emails, which were stored in mailboxes, neatly sorted by category. What happened and how do I find them?
Details: I shut down mail to run errands outside my office. My late model MacBook Pro was on "sleep". When I returned, I opened the application, and (RATS!) all the mailboxes were missing. They just evaporated.
Operating system: 10.7.2 - all software updates installed and current as of 24 hours ago (12-30-11, 6 AM EST).
ln the mail program, the trash folder is OK and the sent folder is OK.
Yesterday, I did no maintenance on my mail folders.
HELP!

1 - the sudden disappearance of my 22 mailboxes, used to sort the emails that I need to file for future use
That was most likely the result of some kind of corruption, as I've already said, not a bug in Mail. Have you repaired the hard drive with Disk Utility recently? That wouldn't be a bad idea.
2 - at random times, mail (or the server) says that my password is incorrect and I must reenter (fix: usually I can quit mail, restart, and the connection is restored without reentering my password)
This is a known issue, where a failure to respond promptly on the server's end mimics what happens when the password is rejected. There's no need to quit Mail, just cancel when asked to enter the password, take the account back online and try again.
3 - mail seems to resort the mail in my mailboxes at random time. Several times a day, I must reset the sort to (a) by date; (b) by desending
Never seen that before. That points more to some kind of possible corruption in your Mail data or preference files.

What can I do, I do not have the same email that is on my iCloud and cannot remember my password, I lost all my contacts and cannot get them back, what can I do?

I do not have the same email address that I did when I started icloud, I do not remember my password and I lost all my contacts with this newest upgrade, it wants e to sign into icloud, but I cant, what can I do?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If you are saying you can't turn off find my phone because it is still using an old ID, you need to change your ID back to the old address at My Apple ID turn off find my phone then change your ID back at my Apple ID.

I had to re-install firefox recently and lost all my bookmarks and passwords, how do I retrieve them? I have already saved them as an html file on my desktop.

I've been having problems with my computer, and had to delete Firefox entirely several times. I don't believe it was your browser that was the problem, though now I have lost all my saved bookmarks. I did export them to IE as an HTML file, which I still have on my desktop. I am now in the painful process of remembering and resetting passwords that Firefox remembered when I had it originally installed (I am back at ground zero with the browser now).

Please read this article about restoring bookmarks:
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Lost_bookmarks
As far as your passwords are concerned, I don't think there's anything you can do. But for the future, you can use the following add-ons to avoid any future loss:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2848/
or
http://www.xmarks.com/
Both are good.
And a simple way to import your bookmarks (since you already saved it on your desktop as html) is:
Bookmarks / Organized Bookmarks / Import and Export
Good luck.

Lost all email when I deleted email accounts and created new accounts in Thunderbird, this is due to complications changing password. How do I get mail back?

First, I did not do a backup, did not think I needed one, my bad. I recently had to change my passwords in the ISP Server and of course in Thunderbird. There were complications, none of my email clients, both Outlook and Thunderbird on multiple computers, would authenticate the new passwords, in working around them I changed to imap from pop3, then later tried to change back to pop3, did not want to work, so, I deleted all of the accounts and recreated them back under pop3, in that process I seem to have lost all of my mail folders. Is there a way to get them back? I have deleted and recreated accounts before and not had this problem. Thanks in advance for any help.

Your messages might still be there in your Thunderbird profile folder.
You could create a new account and then point to the folder that already exists.

I change my apple ID and password like a week now and after changing all my information and MY apple ID, i noticed that i lost all my picture in my camer roll and my photo stream too ;(.. Can anyone please help me how to bring it back all my photos?

I don't know about your camera roll, but for photostream just do this:
Go into Settings > iCloud > Delete Account and then sign back in using your Apple ID information.
Make sure to do the same thing with your iTunes and App Store options.
Settings > iTunes and App Store > Click Email and sign out, then sign back in.

Lost all saved passwords. how do I retreive them?

I have lost all of my saved passwords in my Tools, Options, Security. How do I go about restarting this so it will save passwords from here forward, or if possible retrieving all of the passwords that were lost. Thank you for any help I can get on this. I have tried everything I know how and I'm unable to retrieve the passwords or get information on how to at least start saving them starting from here.
Thank You

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

It is possible that there is a problem with the files key3.db and signons.sqlite that store the encrypted names and passwords in Firefox. 
Rename the files key3.db and signons.sqlite in the Firefox profile folder. 
You can add .old to the file names (key3.db.old and signons.sqlite.old) or move them to another folder to make it possible to undo the action. 
You need to set a new Master Password after renaming or deleting key3.db and all currently saved passwords are lost. 
If that has worked then you can remove the renamed files that are no longer needed.
