My firefox sync says that it was synced, but none of the data actually shows up.
I used firefox sync to back up all my bookmarks right before I reset to factory settings on my netbook. I've downloaded firefox again and synced it to my old data. It tells me that I've done so correctly and that it's syncing a certain amount of data, however, none of the bookmarks are showing up in my new firefox.
Hi Melody,
Unfortunately Firefox Sync is not designed as a back up service. Sometimes it can work but it's not guaranteed that your data will be preserved in cases like yours.
In any case, check if you can go back in history on your bookmarks settings by going to "Show all your bookmarks" click on the Start icon at the top of the window. Select "Restore..." and choose a previous version.
Good luck.

When I connect to the iTunes store, I see that it has loaded, but none of the albums are showing.
I connect. I can tell that the page has loaded according to the status bar at the top of the page, but nothing shows up. Just a blank screen. When i click on different tabs, the status bar changes, showing that it is working, but nothing shows up!

ITunes Match playlist titles sync, but none of the song titles show up.
I just activated iTunes Match and all songs and (I assume) playlists were uploaded. Upon turning it on for my iPhone, everything worked as expected except for playlists. They all show up, but no songs are in any of them. I tried turning iMatch off for my iPhone and then turning it back on to force a resync - which it did, but still no songs in my playlists.
Does this iPod have the contents of your library? If so see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device. Otherwise, depending on the nature of the failure, you may be able to extract the hard drive and recover the media from it. Or you will have to rip your CDs again.
If you'd like access to all your media on any device/computer in future you might consider purchasing a subscription to iTunes Match though personally I just maintain my own backup of my library.

When connecting my ipod nano (5th gen) I get an error messege saying that it was recognized but not propperly. I treid everything that the support site said to do but it still not working. What do I do no?
This came from another thread, but worked for me. Problem is with newest iTunes 4.62. Unistall iTunes, as well as its helper programs (Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Divice Support, and Apple Software Update). Reboot, and reinstall iTunes. It will reinstall all the other ones and you should be able to connect your nano. Good luck.

I had firefox minimized while it was downloading a file and i was working in another application and a box came from firefox titled "Software update" which would normally mean firefox was going to update or needed to restart. but instead the box said " Someone is trying to trick firefox into accepting an insecure update. Please contact your network provider and seek help.". Now this has me puzzled as i am the only user of this laptop, and isnt mozilla the only people that can send an update to firefox? I've also been having some other problems as far as speed and plug-ins. mainly quicktime, last time i tried to launch a quicktime video in firefox. it wouldnt work. also when i had the previous firefox, i had more ram then i do with 4. i mean i used to with just firefox 3 running i would have 2545 or at least 2500MB of free ram and that would be with at least three or more tabs open. now i have with firefox 4 only running around 1600mb or free ram and nothing has changed with my system other than firefox.
Oops, sorry about that. I already had wondered why I had missed this thread.
It is best to do a clean reinstall and remove the entire Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\) in this case to remove all leftover files.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the ''Firefox Profile Folder'' and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

Many thanks b Noir
This is a copy of ONEof the keys in the registry I changed as told by Apple support today. I also have changed others as instructed by GEAR software support to manually delete GEAR drivers (that I had installed but couldn't delete some of the others they mentioned from Windows system 32. Then some bright spark at work told me I need the Gear drivers so I downloaded the software and installed again.
Sorry, just this minute went to insert image and it is giving me a message saying this sort of content is not allowed?.
The most recent key I altered is in: HKey _local _machine. System\class - 4D36E965-E325-11CEBFC1-08002BE10318. Upper Filter data: Upper filter NTIDrvr SiRem GEARAspiWDN.
The GEARsoftware info about manually deleting GEAR drive is from:

I don't think I ever registered my 3rd gen iPod. I was never able to update it past its original software because iTunes could never recognize it. Unfortunately, my wife had installed data on it (old & recently purchased) so I've been very hesitant to "Restore" it. I recently plugged it into my laptop & it prompted me to install the iOS 5.0.1 software, but after multiple attempts to do so iTunes keeps giving me the same error message "update install failed. Connection to the update software server has timed out". How do I update the software without losing all my wife's data?
If you already have iOS5.0, Go to settings-general-software update, scroll to the bottom and hit download and install and this should update it without the computer. Then when you connect the iPod to iTunes, it should say 5.0.1. If this doesn't work, DON'T ERASE IT. Just bring it in to Apple. I had the same issue trying to update to 5.0. and eventually I got it to work after waiting for a little while. Good luck!

And I checked my email and apple said that my songs were ready to be downloaded and when I went , it had no active downloads
Hi OverratedBacon,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. I would first try downloading the songs from your past purchases by following the appropriate steps here:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
If you're still unable to receive your preorder, you may want to report this to the iTunes Store:

I recently updated and restored my Iphone on a Mac. My music was erased, therefore, I am trying to sync all of the music from my computer into the iPhone, but it says that I need to use the original computer/itunes in order to sync, but it is the same computer and iTunes account. The error reads: The iPhone, "Name" is synced with another iTunes library. Do you want to erase this iPhone and a sync with this iTunes library? If I click "Erase and Sync," will it delete my contacts, apps, etc?

When I try to sync my iphone I get a message saying that it was unable to back up my iPhone as an error occurred. My iPhone needs a software update but it won't let me do that until my phone is backed up! I have authorised my computer and tried disconnecting my phone from the computer, but nothing is working. Help please?!
I was receiving the same message. I had to uncheck the box that allowed me to sync my phone to my computer (PC) via wi-fi. After that, I have not had any problems. I am speculating that this issue is probably related to the wi-fi problems people are experiencing with iOS 6.
