Really?? Lost all pinned and tab history!! Not happy.

So my computer updated and when I started Firefox EVERYTHING was gone. I had multiple pinned pages and multiple groups. I loved this functionality but now I get to spend an hour recreating it (if I can). Pretty useless browser if I have to recreate the wheel every time my computer updates. So, how can I SAVE these settings to recover if this happens again and avoid recreating the wheel? If I can't ensure the information/settings are saved, tell me why I'd even bother to set up/use firefox. I'm really not into a make work/hassle program. Thanks. Dawn

yeap, the thing is when i restored the first time there are no more contacts and sms, then i upgrade it to 3.0 again thinking it was the 2.0 (i dunno i cant downgrade to 2.0 anymore)... i think the computer had saved this version as the most current backup... so i think im screwed

Firefox 5 has lost all my chrome tab's and capabilities which came with 4? how do I un install 5 and get back to my version 4?

firefox 5 has lost all my chrome tab's and capabilities which came with FF4? how do I un install 5 and get back to my version 4 & retain all my bookmarks at least I's also like to retrieve my Chrome capabilities as well?

Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac. There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
If you prefer, you can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
Mozilla are working to prevent Mac users with non-compatible systems from getting the notification about Firefox 4, and also not displaying the "Download Firefox 4" button on http://www.mozilla.com

My computer crashed, so I lost all of the tabs I had open in Firefox, and I want them all back.

My computer crashed, and I lost all of the tabs I had open in Firefox. When I re-started Firefox, it didn't ask me about starting a new session or restoring the old one. How can I get back the tabs I had open?

I would try calling the support line and pleading your case, as your movies have gone the same place everything else on your computer did when it 'crashed' - the bit bucket. That's why iTunes has repeated warnings and reminders about backing up your purchases, it's why there is backup software built in to MacOS, and it's why everyone says to back up your computer. The stuff on there is both valuable and fragile, and it only takes a $70 external drive and a few minutes every once in a while to make sure it's all safe.
For the record, it's not "because of Apple" that you can't re-download your movies, it's the studios and their contracts that prevent that.

Syncing does not do this. What was really done?
Is this the comptuer the device normally syncs with?

Bloggie lost all pictures and video taken before new year.

Somehow, the bloggie lost all pictures and video I have taken before Jan 1, 2011. I know I did not delete any of pictures on this camera, but the crossover of the Jan 1, 2011 seems remove all old pictures. Why? It must be a software bug or something.
I bought my bloggie from HBC Canada, The Bay, in December, 2010.
My Bloggie has 8GB memory.
Any idea? Do you have the same problem with your Sony Bloggie?

Check to see if you have the full space available on the bloggie - if they really are completely missing then there are many 3rd party file recovery programs out there, some free, that can be used to recover accidentally deleted or corrupted files. In this circumstance you also have to be very careful - to increase the likelihood of being able to recover the photos and video after they have been deleted don't save any new photos, files or data to your bloggie until you've made the recovery attempt.

Lost all pictures and contact from i phone 4s when trying to download to a laptop

Syncing is not required to copy the pictures off the device to the computer.

"And the beat goes on...." Lost all playlists and 8.0.2 takes away features

Upgrade to 8.0.2 has been a disaster-beware out there. Lost all playlists and have yet to get an answer on how to fix that problem so am just going to create new playlists(could be a good thing).
The latest f...up is that 8.0.2 seems to have taken away the option of creating a "smart shuffle" with songs being played less randomly-used to go to Preferences, Playback, and one of the options was a slider where you could choose how random your shuffle would be. Now there is no slider for that and I keep hearing the same songs constantly in my "random shuffle".
This is one of the reasons people are warned not to ever upgrade your itunes-because Apple ALWAYS takes away features from their customers in their latest upgrades-it's their whole corporate philosophy and mindset. They don't care for their customers-just want to appear "cool" and above everyone else(sometimes called arrogance).
So, is there a way to get the random slider back? Can I "downgrade" my itunes so I can get features that have been stolen from us by Apple?

You might have had a damaged 'iTunes Library' file.
Look in ./Users/Username/Music/iTunes to see if such a file exists.
Unfortunately these damaged files cannot be repaired.
iTunes tries to restore as much information as possible, but some information is lost.
Your missing 2000 tunes probably still are on your HD.
To add these again to the library, drop the 'iTunes Music' folder (in ./Users/Username/Music/iTunes) on the library window in iTunes.
iTunes will now add the missing songs to the library again.
If all goes well, your library will now list the 6200 songs.
Concerning your iPod. I think it's best to start from scratch.
If your iPod is set to automatically update, connect your iPod and immediately press and hold the Command and Option keys. Hold these keys down until the iPod appears in iTunes.
Holding these keys prevents the iPod from auto updating.
Then restore your iPod and set it up the way you want.
Your 'Purchased' playlist will re-appear on your next purchase.
In the meantime you can create a Smart Playlist with the rule:
Kind - contains - protected
This playlist will then list all your purchases.
After the Purchased playlist re-appears, it will only list new purchases. If you want it to contain all purchases, drag the songs from the Smart Playlist to the 'Purchased' playlist.
Or just forget the 'Purchased' playlist and use the 'Smart Playlist' to view your purchases.
Hope this helps.

Lost all contents and settings during 'routine' update to v1.1

Hi all,
Not too sure what went wrong, but I lost all settings and data during what I thought would be a routine firmware update.
In the middle of the update, the phone hung, and the PC gave me the error message that it needed to restore to what turns out to be factory settings. All settings, data, notes and pictures were gone! (no warning given!)
Since I didn't have a chance to download these before I got started, I'm not too sure what to say - if you see a way of backing up your phone before you update the firmware, I'd recommend that you do it.
I've updated a lot of firmware in my life - I'd have to say this is the worst and the first time ever that I've lost data.
In case anyone from Apple monitors this site - is there a way to seperate the data and the firmware area, so that if this kind of thing happens, you only wipe the firmware area?
The phone even initially told me I had to re-register and only offered me a way to make an emergency call ...

Have you docked your Iphone in before updating? If so your contacts and settings should be saved. Yes your picture's are going to gone because you have to manually save them. According to this post http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1069906&tstart=0 it looks like the activation is down with ATT so this is why you are having problems getting all your contacts and settings and having to reactivate.

Your apps will only be where you put them. if you failed to put them on your computer beore updating, then they would certainly be gone.
You can redownload them:

Lost all contacts and dial pad on iphone 3gs after update

Hi, please can someone help, ive lost all contacts and the abillity to add , also my dial pad wont work, all after update , i cant even re ad contacts through my messages.

Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service. For some reason, are you not using the device as designed?
As for other issues... basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Has any of this been tried?

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
