My old computer was damaged. I can need to recover my bookmarks on my new computer

My issue does not seem to be addressed here.. I hope someone can help me.
my old computer is totally gone, no way to back anything before it happened.. So now I have a new computer. I am desperate to recover all my bookmarks I had in firefox..gmail account
currently, the new profile and bookmarkbkup is showing a new date since I got this computer.
I do not know the old firefox profile name....Is there a way to recover the old profile name, and maybe I can recover bkmarks that way.
thanks for anyones help.....all of the articles I found only address the issue if you have the old and new comuputer.

In a lot of cases the hard drive is still functioning and can be build in an enclosure that can be connected to the computer via an USB interface.
That would allow to access the Firefox profile folder and recover your personal data.
If that hard drive has been crashed as well in such a way that no access is possible then I'm afraid that your Firefox personal data is lost if you do not have a backup.

Why can't I recover my bookmarks after Setup new Firefox virgin Although I have Sync Key ?

Before I Change my old OS I created an account on Firefox Sync to backup my bookmarks, after Installing new OS windows 8.1 specifically and setup new Firefox virgin "29.0.1" then trying to retrieve my data using my Sync key I figure out that I can't because the system has changed , please I need support immediately.

To access data that was stored using the old Sync version you would have to install a Firefox 28 version and restore your data from the Sync server.
After having done this you can update to Firefox 29.0.1 and use the new Sync version.

I just updated my phone to the latest version.... but when restarting it asked for a passcode. I haven't had a passcode in at least six months and don't remember what my old one was. What can I do to access my phone?

You can get a replacement by Apple, but you'll have to pay for it, if it is not covered by warranty:
Apple - Support - Service Answer Center
Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
Or search the Internet for 3rd party repair companies

Extracting music from older (not iCloud compatible) iPod- old PC was damaged & I want to be able to add/ remove songs using my new PC (can't unload software properly- PC damaged beyond repair).

I have an old iPod that was associated with a PC that has been destroyed (I didn't unload iTunes from it before it was damaged). I know that if I plug the iPod into my new PC, it will erase all of my old material.
Is there a way to extract the material from my old iPod, load it onto my new PC, and be able to manage my music & keep it on my iPod?
I have an iPhone, but do not want to load all of the music onto that; my iPod (though older) still works perfectly fine. I just need to be able to add/ remove songs, etc.
Thanks in advance.

Since you dropped the iPad and it was damaged accidentally, the repairs would not be covered by Apple anyway.

A recent drive failure forced a complete re-install of all windows Vista system software I was able to revive old hardisk & I need to recover my bookmarks.

I recently suffered a hard drive failure that managed to take months worth of valuable work when it failed. I replaced the hard disk drive in my laptop and completed a fresh install of Windows Vista and all the programs that were used on that system which included Firefox. After finding an exact match of the drive that failed I managed to get the drive running again by replacing the drives control board and I am now able access the data on the drive.I usually really anal about backing up all of my valuable data but I have been so busy with my current project my usual habits went to the wayside. I need to recover the Firefox bookmarks from the old drive and recover them to the new drive but I haven't been able to find the file that contains the bookmarks from the previous installation of Firefox. Could somebody please help me locate these valuable bookmark files

My laptop was stolen how can I re-sync my iphone to the new laptop without losing all of my data?

Hi to all,
I hope someone can help me. I know this question has been asked in various formats but I can't seem to find exactly what I am looking for, so please forgive me if this type of question is asked again.
My laptop was stolen a few months ago and I have finally been able to replace it. The common issue of course is that I can only sync it to one iTunes library at a time, which was on my laptop that some thief is currently enjoying the use of.
I don't have a lot of money so all of my backups were on the stolen laptop as I don't have an external hard drive. I understand you can authorize iTunes or the iPhone to go on upto 5 computers at a time?
As soon as I plugged in my phone (on the new laptop) I created a backup of everything on there using iTunes. I guess my question is, if I plug in my iphone and ask it to restore from back up, will it wipe the phone and replace it with the first back up on the new laptop or will it still delete everything altogether as the original content is not on the new laptop?
As much as it would be a pain, the music content is the least of my concern. It's more a case of making sure I keep my contacts, photos and purchases from the app store. I have read somewhere that you can transfer your purchases but I'm not sure how to do this.
I really hope someone can help and apologies for the repeat topic!
Thanks in advance to any who take the time to read and reply, I will appreciate any input/insight you may be able to provide.

Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.

I can't find my lost bookmarks or add new ones

I can't find my lost bookmarks having upgraded to Firefox 3.6 and when I try to add a bookmark I get a message that the server is busy. I have tried all the options under help.

[https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Lost+Bookmarks]
AFAIK, Firefox doesn't need to contact a server for anything related to bookmarks, unless you have an addon that modifies standard Firefox behavior or adds features to Firefox.
I see by your UserAgent that you have the Google Toolbar extension installed, are you using the Google Bookmarks feature?
Maybe that is your problem, Google bookmarks attempting to "call home"?
What else do you have installed that might be causing that problem?
Open up Help > Troubleshooting Information and hit the '''Copy all to clipboard''', then paste that information into the '''''Post a Reply''''' box in this thread.
That will give us a listing of all you installed addons.

My old iphone was stolen. Can I wipe it remotely if I know the IP address from which someone is trying access my accounts?

I was in Europe last week and was pick pocketed and my iphone 3GS. Now someone is trying to access my gmail account from Romania. I was notified by google and given an IP address from where the attempt is coming from. I have since upgraded my phone, and was only using it as an ipod. For that reason, I didn't have any security settings (no password). But, there's quite a bit of personal things on there (text, tons of pictures, etc) Is there any possible way it could be wiped remotely since I know the IP address where it is located? I also remember setting up a locate my iphone thing some years back, but have never needed to use it (so it seems some of the information needed may not be up to date). Seems like I'm SOL if I don't have icloud or whatever.
