My local folders disappeared. How do I get them back?

Turned computer on. Mozilla asked for email password, for some reason it set up a new account and now my local folders are gone and with them information that I need.

Does the following help?

    By reinstalling do you mean that you deleted the app and redownloaded it ? Deleting an app will remove the app and its contents. Do you have copies of the PDFs in the Books part of your computer's iTunes library so that you can sync them back ?

  • The notes section in all of my contacts disappeared. how do I get them back? Help!

    All of the notes in my Contacts dissapeared. How do I get them back??!! I rebooted my phone. Also, although my iPhone 4S is marked in settings to back up my contacts to iCloud, there were NO contacts saved...now what...?

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. 
    Regards
    TD

    Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
    *Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    See:
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
    You can create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See "Creating a profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
    If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from an existing profile to the new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

    Try to boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.
    If that helps then you most likely have some security software that isn't working properly.

  • New e-mail server, all my old e-mails disappeared, How do I get them back?

    I changed my e-mail provider from Comcast to Verizon and when I updated the accounts in Mail --- all my inbox messages to the Comcast account disappeared. Is it possible to get them back or at least see them?

    What type of accounts are these (POP, IMAP)?
    Mail stores all mail in ~/Library/Mail/. For each account, there is a folder whose name starts with the account type (POP, IMAP, Mac), followed by the account username, and the incoming mail server. This is where all account-specific mailboxes are stored.
    You should have created a new account in Mail, rather than changing the settings of the old one. I've seen people reporting that doing what you did caused the old account folder to be wiped out (and all the mail stored within it to be lost) without warning. This would be a serious bug, but I've been unable to reproduce it. It could very well be that the old account folder is still there, yet inaccessible.
    Take a look at the contents of the ~/Library/Mail/ folder. Do you see account folders for both the old and the new account there?
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user's home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the file path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the file path there.

  • HT201210 my contact names disappeared how do i get them back?

    My iPhone erased all my contact names, but people's numbers are still listed.  Any idea how do get them back?

    Quit Safari completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the Safari icon. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    If that didn't work - try this. Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • My contacts have disappeared; how do I get them back?

    2 days ago, when I returned to "mail" from contacts, my access to contacts had disappeared from my menu, and I can't get back to contacts. I want it back. Thank you.

    It's hard to say what would cause that but I doubt you are doing anything wrong.  They only way you could intentionally make you contacts or calendars disappear is if you either turn off iCloud syinc for contacts and calendars in Settings>iCloud or signed out of your account.
    If it continues to happen, you might want to completely sign out of your account, then sign back in.  To do this, you would want to start by saving any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide your password and choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (your data will still be in iCloud), then sign back in.

  • I tried to move my saved messages to a folder in MyDocs, but instead they just disappeared; how do I get them back??!!

    The messages are/were apparently stored buried somewhere in the program files - I want them stored in MyDocs where they can easily and regularly be backed up. What I thought was the message store probably wasn't, but where is it? And where are the messages gone?

    You can not store mail in "my documents" or a collection of other standard windows folders. That is because the data is application data not files and it is considered unsafe. Microsoft in their design of Windows about 20 years ago designated that application data be stored in the folder "application data" with the advent of Vista that became appdata. So I suggest you modify your backups to include that folder, as it contains data for most programs on your system, not just Thunderbird.
    If you type %appdata% into the search box and press enter windows explorer should open and show you the physical location the environment variable appdata points to. It is by default a hidden folder and as such the content is not available to windows search.
    Now as you have not really said exactly what you did to loose your data, I have no idea where you put it. If you could be more descriptive of what you actually did, perhaps someone can figure it out.

  • Imovie 3.0.3 edit buttons have disappeared, how do I get them back?

    I am trying frantically to finish a project for work and when I opened imovie this afternoon after working with it all morning, my edit buttons have disappeared. I can view the movie but have no way to add clips, audio, etc. without the buttons. This happened once before, right after I updated my OS to Tiger 10.4.9. When I spoke with AppleCare, I believe they had me rebuild my preferences folder. It been awhile and I did not write the steps down. Can anyone help me with this?
    iMac   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    iM has the award 'worst iM version ever' ...
    and the combo of 'new' Os and 'old' iApps... hmm...?
    anyhow:
    quit iM ...
    user/library/preferences
    search for
    com.apple.iMovie.plist
    (... probably com.apple.iMovie3.plist ...)
    drag into Trash, empyt Trash, relaunch iM ...
