My daughter deleted my bookmarks and history. Can I get them back? I have Firefox 3.0 and a Mac.

On July 1, 2010 on about 4:30 pm, my browsing and history files were erased by a member of my family. I had very important information and messages that were saved from February of 2010 up until June. Is there any way of retrieving my history back? I have gone to Firefox and done everything but it doesn't seem to be working.
I have Firefox 3.6 installed and my computer is a MAC. Please any kind of help would be very helpful. Thank you.

Hello Sandra.
You're using 3.6, actually.
Anyway, you can get your bookmarks back. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Lost+Bookmarks?s=restore+bookmarks&as=s#Restoring_bookmark_backups this article].
As for the browsing history, I don't believe it's possible to recover it.
Unless something different happened. If that's the case, my above help won't help you. Please tell me so we can work from there. If it does help, that's as far as I can help, I'm sorry.

My daughter deleted a very important imessage, can i get them back?

Help, a real important imessage was lost or erased, how can i get it back? ipod 4th gen latest update

If the iPod was last backed up with the message on the iPod then restore from backup.
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
Make sure that you do not backup the iBod since that will overwrite the last backup.
You can also try using a recovery program like one of those discussed here:

Restore from your back up seems an obvious solution.

I deleted some photos by mistake, can i get them back?

i deleted some photos by mistake, is there any way to get them back?

Hi,
First, don't give up and DO NOT restore your ipad. That will guarantee your pictures will be gone. Can you give more info? Has it been synced with itunes before/after you took the pictures? Please let us know all info including whether or not you use icloud backups.
Meanwhile, you might want to read this - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5463971?start=0&tstart=0.
More info might help you get more specific info to retrieve your pictures.
Also, I just googled the question "how retrieve deleted pictures from ipad" and a list of sites/links came up. I haven't/don't have time to read them right now, but if you google it you might get some answers. However, don't act too fast. Know the source of the links and consider those sources. Read them and user reviews/responses to see if the different solutions work.
Hope this helps.

All my emails just disappeared, deleted from iphone...can i get them back?

I was opening an email and the application got stuck with a blank white screen. I turned it off and back on and all my saved mail was gone...everything I've received, everything i've sent...everything. All my accounts are still there and it is receiving new mail fine just like it should. It is just that all my old mail is gone.
Does itunes backup mail when doing a sync backup? I've never had to restore before so i am afraid...will it restore to original phone (blank phone) or will it restore it to what was on the phone before i backed it up?
Please help! I need my old emails back! Thanks so much!
~Karen

No, I haven't been able to get them back. I have searched and searched and can't find any information on it. I guess they are gone forever...which really stinks because I use my iphone to send most of my emails so they were all on the phone instead of in my Outlook.
Please let me know if you find out anything!

I foolishly removed the firefox toolbar ( meaning I have no file,view, edit, bookmark, or any other kind of tab including the search box or even a address bar). How can I get them back without reinstalling firefox please?

Hi, I wanted more room to view on the web, so I thought I'd get rid of some of the toolbars that were taking up space. I went to the edit tab (i think) and then selected toolbars and then just unticked the ones I wanted to lose.Worked like a charm...
Only problem was that I unticked the wrong one. Now I can't search on the web or enter a url as there is nothing there anymore. Any I do mean NOTHING expect my roboform toolbar and the "Getting Started" Firefox tab just above that.
Reason I stressed the "nothing" is because I went on yahoo answers and someone just said...go to edit and...He obviously didn't get that I don't have any kind of firefox tabs left on my browser ( except for the "getting started" tab)
I don't want to uninstall and reinstall as I'm worried I'll lose my bookmarked pages.
Would be really grateful if you could advise me of an alternative solution to getting my tabs, search bar and address bar back please?
Many thanks
Paul
ps as I don't have any tabs I can't tell you which version I have installed, but your clever software looks like it's got it right.

Try this: press F10 or tap the Alt key to display the menu bar temporarily, then
View > Toolbars > Menu Bar
If that doesn't work, you could reset your toolbars to factory default using Firefox's Safe Mode. First, make a backup of your computer for safekeeping. To back up Firefox, see [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information].
Next, start Firefox in Firefox
[http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode], and check only the box to reset toolbars. Be careful not to "reset" anything else if you didn't back up.
Hope this helps.

Deleted some contacts...can I get them back if they are not in my backups?

I used an app that let's you delete a ton of contacts at once, I think it was called Cleanup.
Now when I conntected my phone to my computer after deleting a few thousand contacts outlook synced my computer's contacts with my iPhone (not sure if this is regular) and so all of my contacts that got deleted from my phone also got deleted from my computer and now I'm missing contact info from about 3,000 of my clients.
I downloaded a backup recovery program but only 2 backups showed up and both contained the address book I currently have. Is there any other way I can get my contacts back?

According to this document: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 Contacts are not included in the backup. Only the settings for Mail, Contacts, Calendars accounts. It's not worded very well, but that's what it means. The information regarding the accounts are synced to is backed up, not the contacts themselves. Contacts are intended to be synced with an address book or cloud service. There is only enough contact information in the backup to maintain the "Phone Favorites" list. (the emphasis below is mine).
Backed-up information includes purchased music, TV shows, apps, and books*; photos and video in the Camera Roll; device settings (for example, Phone Favorites, Wallpaper, and Mail, Contacts, Calendar accounts); app data; Home screen and app organization; Messages (iMessage, SMS, and MMS), ringtones, and more. Media files synced from your computer aren’t backed up, but can be restored by syncing with iTunes.

Facebook Albums have been deleted, yet still in iphoto - can I get them back on Facebook?

Something has happened on my Facebook account, and all my albums are missing (70+ albums)
However, on iPhoto - All of the Facebook albums still show up under the WEB section.
This would be ok, BUT, when i click onto an album a message comes up saying "Facebook album 'Holiday' has been deleted from Facebook, it will now be deleted from iPhoto" the only option is to click OK, or to force quit.
Is there a way to re-sync the albums back onto Facebook?
I know there are lots of forums on syncing the other way - from Facebook to iPhoto, but this question concerns syncing from iPhoto back up to Facebook...

exact same problem. I was doing a big clean up on my hard drive. and the FB section kept turning and turning. then I started to realize it is dumping my albums on FB!!
The weird thing is I've been synching albums to FB for years and never had this problem when I delete albums form iPhoto last year. I think this is the first time I have this problem. ie, there are albums that I have deleted on iphoto before and theya re still on FB now, I wonder if it is an iPhoto 11 problem.
grrrrr.. seems like Apple have given up on this one. so much for convenient synching. no more iPhoto I guess. maybe someone can recommend a Mac photo app that will treat ppl a bit nicer than iPhoto.

10.8.2 has deleted my user settings how can i get them back?

I logged on to find that my desktop had changed. I launched itunes and there were no songs there. I checked Macintosh HD/users to find that there weren't any folders there. I've looked at my disk usage and there is 160gb unaccounted for, so maybe there's hope to recover my lost data.
10.8.2 running on Mac mini "Core 2 Duo" 2.53 (Late 2009).

Maybe you have multiple accounts that's why your purchase history is empty. You can try checking for possible Apple IDs that's existing for you or you can ask for assistance from support.

Your iOS device backup only includes data and settings stored on your device. It doesn’t include data already stored in iCloud, for example contacts, calendars, bookmarks, mail messages, notes, shared photo albums, iCloud Photo Library beta, My Photo Stream, and documents you save in iCloud using iOS apps and Mac apps.

My daughter deleted my bookmarks and history. Can I get them back? I have Firefox 3.0 and a Mac.
