My profiles and bookmarks keep vanishing, I am running windows 7.

New computer, 2 months, running windows 7. Installed latest firefox. It has crashed a few times, and all of my profiles and bookmarks have disappeared 3 times now. Unable to recreate event. Running Trend Micro AV. Any ideas?

What do you mean by '''"I verified the profile and it is selecting the same profile as my old computer"'''?
Have you seen this? <br />

  • CB21AG and a Wyse Client Bridge v90 Running Windows XPe

    Has anyone successfully installed the driver and ADU on a Wyse v90 running Windows XPe?
    When I attempt to install the Cisco software for the wireless NIC we are using onto a Wyse V90 running Windows XP embedded, I get the following message. This file does not exist on the disk from Cisco. I did find a copy of it in c:\Windows\System32 but I think that is the one that will be overwritten during install. If I point to the existing file, the install completes but the software does not work. I am able to config using Windows but when I try to turn control over to the Cisco software I cannot configure anything, all options are grayed out and it tells me my hardware is not installed properly.
    Thanks!

    Bill,
    They are running the latest version. this is what I got from cisco tac:
    As per the case notes, it seems that wireless card is not working in Windows XPe.
    Here's the deal with XP Embedded. It is based upon real Windows XP; however the manufacturers are free to use only subsets of real XP if they want to, so in some cases, particular manufacturers have been known to leave out XP features that are necessary for the CB21AG/PI21AG to function properly.
    Since we can't keep track of which manufacturers' XP Embedded implementations will work or won't, we state that XP Embedded is not supported with CB21AG/PI21AG.
    What I would recommend for a PI21AG deployment in an XP Embedded environment is this. First, verify that CB21AG works as desired when installed in real XP (SP2 is recommended.) Then, you can install CB21AG the XP Embedded client and see if it works. If you are having problems installing it or getting it to work in XP Embedded while it works fine with real XP SP2, then they should bring up the problem with the equipment manufacturer, and this is case you will need get the manufacturer to make it work or qualify this card as being a card that they officially support on their particular XP Embedded implementation.
    Since this is not supported, we as TAC can not troubleshoot or provide additional help directly to this issue, that got a be a a functionality for this Windows XP Embedded that is missing, or not implemented, as the
    real XP do.
    If you got to replicate this issue on Windows XP SP2, I will definitively provide you our full support for this issue!

  • I am going to buy either a Mac Air or Mac Pro Retina 8GB RAM and 256GB. And as I have to still run Windows I will install Parallels 9. As the Mac are both 64bit machines does that mean I need to install Windows 7 64bit ? And office pro 2013 64 bit too?

    I am going to buy either a Mac Air or Mac Pro Retina 8GB RAM and 256GB. And as I have to still run Windows programs I will install Parallels 9. As the Mac are both 64bit machines does that mean I need to install Windows 7 64bit or just install 32 bit? (Going with Win7 as I hate Win8). And I will install Office Pro 2013 64 bit too or 32 bit or is that automatically selected by the underlying OS (I use Word, Excel and Access mainly for a membership database of a local club) ? I am not a power user so would appreciate advice on way to go

    Again thank you.  If I only use word, excel and access in the Win environment and Mac OS for email and safari for internet do I need anti virus software . Ie my connection to the world is mac only and I use office pro only to ruin the club, newsletters, membership database etc. and of course anything I do there can drag/drop to the mac environ to email.  That's my understanding anyway.  Next will my existing .pst file copy directly into mac mail or do I have to runs translator  as I recall reading something about that ages ago when I started thinking Mac

  • How can I make Use of PS and Ai (offer) in spite of running Windows Vista ?

    How can I make Use of PS and Ai (offer) in spite of running Windows Vista ?

    Once you have signed up, you could - in theory - choose "other version" under the icon on the CC website and install CS6, but I'm not sure if that works for this special offer or only for "full" CC. Anyway, it seems simple enough to upgrade to Win 7 or Win 8 and perhaps you were planning on starting fresh, anyway...

  • My former Firefox Profile and bookmarks are missing after a Firefox 29 update - how to get them back?

    I've tried all the Mozilla support articles without success.
    Where are my bookmarks/passwords/etc. saved in my Mac desktop computer?
    Help!!!

    It is possible that there is or has been a problem with the profiles.ini file that registers all profile and that a new default profile got created.

  • [Nightly] Why bookmarks keep opening in a new window (library)?

    In the past, when I clicked "Display your bookmarks" a 1/4 screen size window (not the library) used to appear with all my bookmarks.
    Now, however, when I click the same button, a window named "Library" is displayed with the bookmarks.
    Is that changeable? Any option to return to the old way they appeared?

    Sorry, but the sidebar is not what I were looking for. What I want is that little ''window'' showed when you pressed "Display your bookmarks", just as it happens when you press "Customize and Control Nightly".

  • My toolbar, search bo and bookmarks bars vanished, FF 18.02, Mac OS 10.6.8

    my top two toolbars vanished. I cannot manually enter a URL, when I get a new tab I am unable to enter anything. If I want to run a search I have to go to Google in history, the select search. Are you trying to run users to another browser?

    Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible:
    *"View > Toolbars"
    Open the Customize window to set which toolbar items to display:
    *View > Toolbars > Customize
    *Check that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
    *If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the toolbar palette in the customize window to the Bookmarks Toolbar
    *If missing items are in the toolbar palette then drag them back from the Customize window on the toolbar
    *If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up

  • Moving "profile" and bookmarks from ibook to powerbook?

    I just bought a 15 powerbook after loving my ibook for the last two years. My question is how can I move my files from my ibook to the powerbook so I can keep my bookmarks AND my log-in passwords for website log-ins?
    Of course I'd like to bring my email with me but I think I will import those from the application entourage (don't throw anything at me. I've tried Mail but really think its lacking in features that I enjoy in Entourage including the built in calendar that I've used for several years now). I can simply import using shared files once I get my powerbook online and allow file sharing on my ibook.
    But what files/folders do I need to drag into the powerbook to make sure my bookmarks and log-ins/passwords are imported too. Is there a trick or a source I can read before I get started?
    thanks for your help!

    The Migration Manager is the best way to transfer all of your applications, documents and settings from the iBook to the PowerBook, but if only want to transfer specific files, then you will have to move them from the iBook to the PowerBook manually. Your passwords are stored in the keychain file on the iBook in ~/Library/Keychains. You will need to make a copy of that file and add it to the list of keychains on your PowerBook as described in Mac Help:
    Adding an existing keychain file to your keychain list
    If you have a keychain file from another computer, you can add the keychain to your keychain list.
    Open Keychain Access, located in /Applications/Utilities.
    Select Edit menu >Keychain List.
    Click the Add button, then locate the keychain file and click Open
    You can transfer your Safari bookmarks manually, as well, by copying the Bookmarks.plist file in the ~/Library/Safari folder on the iBook and placing the copy in the same location on your PowerBook.
    Good luck.

  • Blue Screen of Death and USB malfunctions on HP Envy running Windows 7

    Hello.
    I have an HP Envy 14 notebook PC. It's running Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, version 6.1.7601. When I run it, I eventually starts getting an error message from the right of the desktop toolbar telling me that a USB device I plugged in is malfunctioning and did not get installed correctly. This is happening while my USB ports are empty.
    As this is happening, the computer also starts playing background static that you can hear over headphones as well. This sound goes away once you mute the machine. After plugging the computer into a monitor to play sound through its speakers, there is also a curious effect; after I remove all the cords and plug in earphones, I hear amplified booming sounds from small movements, rather than what is meant to be playing. This latter effect goes away once I restart the computer,
    Eventually, the computer displays a blue screen and crashes. The blue screen asks me to disable BIOS memory options such as caching and shadowing. Once the machine restarts, it informs gives me the following report:
    Problem signature:
      Problem Event Name:    BlueScreen
      OS Version:    6.1.7601.2.1.0.768.3

      OS Version:    6_1_7601

      C:\Users\Kristina\AppData\Local\Temp\WER-187341-0.sysdata.xml
    It also gives me the option to check for solutions. Doing so closes the screen and gives no further information. Please advise as to how to address these issues.

    I have the same issue you have had. This happend to my old hp, I thought it was a fluke so when I bought my new hp envy a year ago I was dumbfounded to see that its happening all over again. This time my hp envy 14 is doing the same thing yours did with the same code and all. Can you please tell me what you did to fix this or were you even able to fix it at all?

  • I just updated to the newest Firefox 9.0.1 and now I get pop up ads as a new tab that takes over my web session. Firefox also crashes my whole computer and restarts it. I am running Windows XP Pro.

    Pop Ad tabs include ad, when I close it asks if I'm sure I want to leave the page. I say yes and then there is another survey ad that says I may have won something. This whole process requires at least 4 denials before I can get the page to close.
    Periodically my computer will freeze and restart when I am using Firefox.

  • Installing iTunes and QuickTime on an HP laptop running Windows 7.

    I get error 2738 when:
              installing todays downloads or when
              uninstalling a preinstalled 2009 version of QuickTime.
    I have seen and successfully applied the solution offerred at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1331.
    Twice.
    Restarted the computer and applied that solution again, and again with the message indicating success.
    And each time get the error 2738 message.

    I also looked through the earlier messages and saw something about
    a logon as a simple user.
    Did this and then noticed the uninstaller in QuickTime folder.
    Used this and QuickTime uninstalled without error (2738 or anything else).
    Continued to be logged on as this simple user.
    Ran the iTunes installer (answering yes to security questions).
    Installed both iTunes and QuickTime without error.
