I was asked to up grade my Firefox, when I did this the system crashed and I have lost use of my book marks and fire fox, I have not been able to fix it.

Two days ago I logged on to Firefox. I recieved a message that told me that I was using an out dated version. I had to up grade . I followed the instruction and when finished fire fox crashed. I am unable to delete firefox, reload it, or use it. I am forced to use Internet Explorer to use my computer. I have lost my book marked sites, and I am at a loss as how to retrieve what I have lost. I have tried to follow the instructions to fix the problem but I have not been able to fix the problem. I sent the crash information but recieved no responce.

I am puzzled by this. The laptop doesn't need the Apple ID - but iTunes does. I could be missing something but ....
Why would you not be able to use your existing Apple ID and iTunes account on a new laptop? If you authorized the computer - you should be able to use your existing account - unless you already had 5 computers authorized with the existing ID - and that was why iTunes would not accept the ID. However, I'm sure that you would have received a popup message from iTunes telling you that you had reached the limit.
I just received a new MBP and my daughter did as well. My entire family shares an Apple ID and we had no issues at all with my Apple ID and iTunes on our new computers and I did not have to sign up for a new account. Did you even try the old ID?

I am trying to sort my bookmarks A/Z. I go to organize book marks and click that command and it puts everything A/z but when I go back to my normal page and click bookmarks it is not A/Z. One I organize it how do I save it that way?

Sorting Bookmarks in the Library window (Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks) is for temporary display. The Bookmarks are not permanently sorted.
To permanently sort, open the Bookmarks Sidebar (Ctrl+B opens or closes the Bookmarks Sidebar ---- Cmd+B in OSX), right-click (Cmd+click in OSX) the "Bookmarks Menu" folder and choose "Sort by Name".

Firefox 4 does not allow me to organize book marks and does not automatically fill web sites I start to type.

Since upgrading to Firefox 4 I no longer have the option to organize bookmarks. Also when I start to type a website and I click on the suggestions that appear as I start to type... they do not appear in the space where I have started to type. This did not happen with my previous verion of Firefox. Everything worked perfectly.

Thank you Tony E... it did solve my book mark problem... but do you know why Foxfire 4 does not fill in websites they suggests to the area where I start to type in a search.
For instance I might start to type in Firefox to indicate that I want to go to the Firefox web site. But before I start to finish typing Fir... a box pop up with the suggestion Firefox. If I click on this suggestion it should fill the area I am typing and take me to the Firefox web site.
Unfortunately it does not do this now... they way it used to do before... in the older version of Firefox.

Lost address book settings and mail box whilst trying to copy inf

I have been trying to copy my old disc (onto an external hard drive) as i have a new machine and different disc.So i have been copying stuff from old disc to external but it has been interrupted a few times so had to go back and start process again.And because i had to do this I got rid of stuff on original hard disk , such as library , as i did not want it to copy this again.But in doing this I seem to have lost my mail box and emails and info which was in my address book such as email contacts.I have looked onto where copied library too but can not find the address book and mail stuff i need to bring back in order to get my old info back.I have tried importing from new copied library but am not sure where to go ? Does anyone know a way i can get old info back (mail and address book) (which i would then export in some way to get onto new disc ?).I have tried copying new library back onto/onto old disc but get message as it begins that something ? port something is in use so it can not be copied.Basically does any one know what i need to copy and paste back into/onto old disc (library ?) to get my old info back into mail and address book.I can not understand how else i could have lost it ? (apart from deleting
library ?).Any suggestions please.
thanks

Hi Rick, there are actually 3 Library folders...
/System/Library/
/Library/
/Users/YourUserName/Library/
This last one is where your Mail & AB info would be.
On Mail...
First Quit Mail & Address Book.
Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail
Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail Downloads
(Could be a different folder here if you chose such in Mail Prefs)
Only the plist is separate.
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
For Address Book...
Files...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.AddressBook.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.AddressBook.abd.plist
Folders...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/com.apple.AddressBook/

What files constitute Safari Book marks and other files

Hi -- I recently installed a new internal Seagate 1TB SSHD drive into my MBP 15" Late 2011 to replace the OEM 500GB internal HD. Did a clean install with OS X Recovery. So far so good. But I didn't transfer over the Safari settings. (Though I have them on my backup drive -- that is I transferred all the system files to the external drive). Would someone please let me know the names of the critical files for Safari settings (including book marks etc). Also if you could tell me where these files actually reside (i.e. what folders, etc). Thanks!

Open the home folder on your backup and then Library/Safari/; all of the Safari database files for your user account are in it.

Pdf printing gets a black screen, and unable to save

When saving a pdf (saving as), I get a message "unable to save as ...", when printing, it print all black pages...
The file is OK, as I am able to perform both operations from IE running in parallel...

Hi..
Open the Finder. From your Finder menu bar top of your screen click Go > Go to Folder
Type this exactly as you see it here: /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Click Go
Move the Adobe PDF Browser plugin (or just PDF Browser plugin) to the Trash.
Quit then relaunch Safari to test.

I have Firefox 3.6.13 Since the most recent update from Firefox I lost all my book marks and have not been able to place any pages in the book marks. I also do not seem to keep any History. Help!

I also notice when using a search from the tab on the far right say where Google is that I does not begin a search. When I use a secure email program the normal new window or tab that would open to type the message opens but remains blank. and will not load.
The server we are connected to crashed soon after I down loaded the new update for Mozilla Firefox. It has been replaced with a new one but I still have the above problems. I prefer to use only Firefox and would apreciate being to utilize the program as I did before. I am not happy with the problem with the new update. Or at least that is how it seems to me.

# Quit Firefox.

Lost address book contacts and restore?

Hi All,
I know it has been discussed a while ago, but I have lost all my contact details by overnight. Luckily I have .mac account (now mobileme) and all the address synched with my previous address book items is there. The question is how I can restore it from mobileme.
Thanks: Szimi

How could I recover address book's contact info
There are two possibilities. If you have a backup of your Address Book (AddressBook.abbu file), you can use the File > Revert to Address Book Backup menu option to restore your contacts. If you don't have a backup, you need to get in the habit of always making a backup when you make any change to your Address Book.
The second possibility is to enable the Debug menu in Address Book using this Terminal command (Address Book must not be running when you do this):
defaults write com.apple.AddressBook ABShowDebugMenu -bool True
then press Enter, then quit Terminal.
Start Address Book, go to the Debug menu and choose "Revert from MetaData" and wait to see what happens. With any luck, your contacts will be restored, after which you should make an immediate backup. If they are not restored, that means all the data was lost and you will need to restore from MobileMe, which is a question for their forums.

Iphone 3g sync and lost address book, notes and all data

Have an iPhone 3G and synced with itunes yesterday and installed all updates. After the process wqas completed, my phone rebooted and I lost all my address book contents, all notes, and my calendar was wiped clean. Can I get some help in having these items restored?

This is the Mac OS X Technologies > iSync forum. You appear to be a Windows user - also, even on a Mac, iSync is not used for syncing the iPhone.
I'd suggest asking in the iPhone forums:

Iphoto lost all my photos and won't save new ones

I know this has been asked before, but I am computer illiterate and a first time Mac user (just got my macbook in July). I had approx. 1000 photos saved in iphoto and now when I open the application they are gone! Plus, I just loaded more pics directly from my camera, named and organized them last week (about 25 pics) and now they are gone too! What gives? Am I supposed to be saving these somehow in iphoto? The weird thing is the pics are still in my applications under pictures. (most of them anyway). Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong?
Also, for future reference, whenever I put a cd in and import photos the photos are fine as long as the cd is in, but if the cd is not in the computer iphoto says that it cannot read, also when I try to download photos from friends website it won't show the photo, only a white page with the .jpg logo...this is really frustrating-i never had these problems with my pc, and the reason I got a mac was because of the great pic. capabilities.

I wonder if your database file has been corrupted.
Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums back.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.
Regards
TD
