Could we review the file(s) you have? For example, did you save a sessionstore.bak file that contains the windows and tabs you want to re-open? Make sure to have a backup of this in a safe location (e.g., Documents folder) before proceeding, since this file will be overwritten at Firefox startup.
If you have an intact sessionstore.bak file, try substituting it for the sessionstore.js file. Here's what I mean.
Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using
Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
Leaving that window open, switch back to Firefox and Exit
Pause while Firefox finishes its cleanup, then rename '''sessionstore.js''' to something like sessionstore.save to keep your latest session available for future access.
Note: If the .js extension does not appear on sessionstore, you should turn off the Windows feature that hides file extensions from you, so that you can work with file names as accurately as possible. This Microsoft support article has the steps: [http://support.microsoft.com/kb/865219].
Then copy your sessionstore.bak file that contains the windows and tabs you want to reopen back into the folder and rename it to sessionstore.js.
Restart Firefox and restore your previous session. Success?

  • My old computer (a Sony) with my iTunes crashed. I have a new MAC and want to make sure I can keep all of my music (mostly from old CD's that have been lost). I bought iTunes match hoping that would work but it isn't using the data on my phone. HELP!

    Since you have purchased a new Mac (which, BTW, is not typed in all capitals) why not buy a Time Capsule <http://www.apple.com/airport-time-capsule/> which is designed specifically to work with OS X and Time Machine?
    You don't say what part of your Sony "crashed." If it was not the HDD it is possible to take the computer apart, put the HDD in an external case, then recover the data off of it (including the music) simply drag-n-drop. If it was the HDD that "crashed" that makes it more difficult.
    If you are able to recover the music from the Sony you can then add it to the iTunes library on the Mac and iTunes Match will then scan, match and upload the tracks to be mirrored in the cloud.

    New & frustrated Mac user - trying to transfer files PC to Mac must be easier than this?  After unsuccessfully trying other suggested Help methods of transfering files from old  PC to new MacBook Pro  (eg iTunes files) tried Migration Assistant - when I press continue on PC, Migration Assistant shows message - error has occured in preparing data for transfer & quit buttion appears.

    Importing your music folder will add in the tracks, but your playlists all live in the original .itl file. Not quite sure why any playlists were imported at all, though if you have exported m3u files then they could have been added in when you added the folder. iTunes records absoulte paths in these lists and ignores any file it can't find.
    The stuff in the Temp folder can be thrown away once everything is working. Just safer than deleting in case you wanted/needed to reverse any actions.
    At step 6 you should have had your original library complete with ratings, playlists, date added values etc., so I'm not quite sure where things have gone wrong.
    When you moved everything up one level did that include an iTunes Library.itl file? Another way of asking the same question is when you got to step 6 did you have a completely blank library with the prompts to add music.
    Perhaps the .itl file was corrupt. The .tmp files indicate something may have gone wrong at some point. What are the sizes/dates of the files in the Previous iTunes Libraries folder? The most recently dated of these, providing it is at least of a comparable size to its predecessors) may well be a better starting point. You can rename the current itl as iTunes Library (Temp).itl, copy the the older file up to the iTunes folder and rename it as iTunes Library.itl.
    Use iTunes Folder Watch to update the library with tracks that have been added or removed since the backup file was created.

  • Trying to move iPod touch to new computer.  iTunes library from old computer already on external hard drive.  Don't want to lose playlists, apps, etc.  Help?

    I am trying to move iPod touch to a new computer.  My iTunes library was already on a 1 TB external hard drive.  I downloaded iTunes on my new computer, plugged in my external hard drive with my iTunes library, and changed my iTunes media folder location (preferences-advanced) to my external hard drive location. But now all my songs are "checked" (all were not before) and none of my old playlists are present.  When I plug in my iPod touch to the new computer, it asks if I want to erase and sync.  I do not want to lose my playlists, apps, etc.  How do I move over to my new cpmputer without erasing my iPod and losing stuff?

    Forgot to add, my iPod touch is backed up on iCloud

  • How to make ipod shuffle 4th to play podcast in normal order from old to new ones?

    It plays only in crazy reverse order from new to old podcasts. I've looked through bunch of forums but didn't find adequate answers. Stupied Apple, it even doesn't have normal support......

    The only way you can control the order of podcast episode playback is to put them on a playlist (in iTunes), in any desired order.  Then, sync that playlist to the shuffle.
    On the shuffle, set the power switch to the play-in-order (middle) position.  Use VoiceOver to select that playlist.  The podcast episodes should play in playlist order.  Another advantage of this method is being able to "mix and match" pisodes from different podcasts on one continuous playlist.
    You can set up the iPod's Podcasts screen in iTunes to select this playlist under Include Episodes from Playlists, which automatically synca changes you make to the playlist (in iTunes) to the shuffle, the next time the shuffle is connected.

  • TS3406 My iphone 6 loses audio to/from the caller randomly.  It is working fine then drops audio both ways.  Also sometimes when I make a call, it goes through, but no audio to/from. Rebooting corrects. Help?

    iPhone 6.  When making a call, I have no audio in/out of the phone, but the other phone rings and connects.  It happens randomly.  I have also lost audio in/out in the middle of a phone call as well.  Rebooting resolves the problem until it happens again.
    is this a software issue or does my hardware have an issue?  Currently running iOS 8.1.1, but it has happened since the phone was new with 8.0...

    Well, I think I figured it out... at least I've stopped it from happening...
    I have a third party bluetooth receiver that I use occasionally in my car that is hooked up to the stereo's AUX port.  One time, when my phone cut out in the middle of a call, I looked down and the phone call had been switched to playing through that bluetooth device.  I told the phone to forget the device, and it hasn't happened since.  (About 3 weeks)
    What is odd is that this would happen when I was 500 feet away from my car at my office and couldn't have sensed the bluetooth signal.  (Also the car had been off for hours).
    It doesn't happen with my phone still acknowledging the handsfree bluetooth in my car, but I seem to have solved my inability to speak or hear...  I just need to forget the bluetooth adapter every time I stop using it.

  • I am trying to clear files from my computer. I have a bunch of .m4v protected files that will not delete. They are lectures from college that I do not need anymore and would like to delete them to make room on my computer.

    I am trying to clear files from my computer. I have a bunch of .m4v protected files that will not delete. They are lectures from college that I do not need anymore and would like to delete them to make room on my computer. I have looked at the help sites and they seem to give directions to change files that people are saving in the future and not regarding past files. I am unable to change anything about the file including the name, so I can not change these past files from .m4v to something else which is deletable such as .mp4 etc. Any help would be much appreciated!!!!

    Well, most of what we can tell you is already stated in the message you are getting.  A phone can only sync with one library at a time.  You have apparently synced your phone with a different iTunes library in the past, or changes have been made to this library so the phone no longer recognizes it as the library with which it was synced.  To know which you will have to provide the information.
    If you bought them using the AppleID you use with this phone it may simply be easier to re-download them directly to the phone rather than sync them, though you will want to resolve that issue at some point.

  • What makes a file unreadable or readable when trying to move it into the library

    What makes a file unreadable or readable when trying to move it into the library

    Any more info? It could be many things including what you are doing - you do not "move" anything to the iPhoto library - you use iPhoto (or image capture) to "import" into iPhoto
    We know nothing except what you tell us so full information and correct terminology is critical to getting valid answers - the more that is left to one guessing and assuming the better the chance of a bad answer

    When you set  up your Mac you had to enter a admin password to set up your user account.
    If you did not enter one then try using the  "blank window" as your password. ie Just hit return with nothing entered.

  • Format over catalog file, tried to recover file but now corrupt?!

    I recently performed a format of my hard drive.  When doing this, I did not back up my catalog file from photoshop elements(I have pse 8.0).  I backed up everything else, and I do have all of the original full size photo files from my hard drive, ~11,000 image files which are now all put back to their exact same location on the hard drive as before the format. Horrible mistake on my part not to back this up, but I thought this info was stored in the individual photo files itself, but I know now that this info was in the catalog file that I more than likely have lost.
    First off, following the format elements 8.0 was installed and all of my photos were migrated into elements(all thumbnails visible in organizer with no problems).  Elements and the organizer worked perfectly fine, besides the fact that I had lost all of my tag and album info that was stored in the catalog file. 
    My husband purchased some file recovery software following the format of the hard drive to try and recover the catalog database file from the hard drive.  The recovery software did find the file and was able to recover it from the partition of the hard drive that had been formatted over.  Following the recovery of the file, he tried to move the file manually into the folder C:\program data\adobe\elements organizer\catalogs\my catalogs\.  Doing this replaced the new catalog file that had been recently created by photoshops elements following the reformat with the one that was recovered by the recovery software.  Next, he opened up Photoshop elements and tried to launch the organizer.  Following this, we received the following message from organizer: “the catalog could not be opened, it is either corrupt, or the version is out of date and cannot be updated”. We then clicked on ok and then tried to hit the repair button, which it then told me that the catalog file could not be repaired.  We also tried the File>Catalog> Open command in elements organizer to open the new catalog file and this gave me the same exact error message and same results.
    We have also tried to run the psedbtool found on the web on the catalog file that was recovered by the recovery software.  Unfortunately, the file is unreadable by the tool and the tool gives me the following message when trying to use the tool on the recovered catalog file: "can't open catalog database: file is encrypted or is not a database". I also tried the -csv file and -printVolumeTable options of the tool and it gives me the same message.  Because I am getting this error message, it does not seem as if this tool will be able to help me with the recovered catalog database file.
    Is my catalog file that I have recovered corrupt and unusable, or is there some way to get this file to work? 
    The recovery software I used if from Pareto Logic named "Data Recovery Pro".  Could the problem be with the recovery software and maybe a different recovery software may do a better job of recovering the file?
    Thnks for any help!

    To make the story short, have you backed up your photos?  If the answer is yes then why can't you create a new catalog and import the photos to this new catalog?
    To create a new catalog, the basic process is:
    1) Open the Organizer and click on File
    2) Click Catalog
    3) click New
    4) Type a name for the new catalog
    5) Click OK
    Now it is a question of importing the photos to this new catalog.  the basic process is as follows:
    1) Open the Organizer and Click File
    2) Click Get Photos & Videos
    3) Click From Files and Folders
    4) click "down-arrow" icon to choose the folder
    5) CTRL+ Click on your photos to import (or CTRL + A to select all photos)
    6) click Get Media
    7) Click Show All to view your photos
    Hope this gets you started.  Your formatted hard drive will not let you get your old files so you are stuck.  You should always make a habit to back-up your data on a flash drive because they are very robust and can be stored safely  away from the computer you are working on.  Your your machines own Hard Disk as a back-up store is definitively not a good strategy.
