Retrieving applications after a system restore.

Today, my little brother was playing around and accidentally restored my iPod Touch.
So, I retrieved all of my songs, music videos, and shows.
But WHERE are my applications? ._.
I'd really rather not spend hours upon hours attempting to remember every application I've ever downloaded. Same goes to looking at my purchase history and searching for it, downloading, going back, searching, downloading, etc.
And trust me, anyone with as many applications as me would NOT want to do that.
I spoke to a representative on the phone a few minutes ago, and said I can send a request to apple by going to http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/
Any specifications?

You are sure that they are in browser\searchplugins and not in \searchplugins in the Firefox program folder?
There has been a change and in current Firefox versions some files and folders have been moved to the browser folder and searchplugins is one of them.

Uploading previous iWeb work after a system restore?

How do I upload previous iWeb work after a system restore?
I backed up my data on a Hard-drive then I did a factory reset or restore of my hard-drive....
Now I am attempting to open my previous iWeb work online and it is not working please help.....

Your domain.sites2 file is the file that iWeb stores all its data and it is this file that you need if you want to continue updating your website in iWeb.
It is found under your User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder and then the domain.sites file.
Your user library is the one with the house and this is where your personal user information is stored as opposed to your System Library which is general and where iWeb is not.
If you don't have your domain.sites file then you will have to re-build your site from scratch as iWeb does not have the ability to read or open html files - so a previously published site - it is a one way street creating html files upon publishing.

how do you retrieve information after the system has been reset to default?

From a backup on itunes or icloud, assuming you have made backups. Connect to itunes and in the first tab for your device, choose to perform a restore.

If the problems arose after a restore from a Windows restore point you may need to resort to reinstalling Firefox, as sometimes Windows restores have been known to break Firefox.
Security software including Firewalls is another problem that can slow Firefox or cause it not to work. You need to ensure the security software recognises the current version of Firefox (Again I wonder if a Windows restore may have affected this also.)
* [[Configure Windows Firewall to allow Firefox access to the Internet]]
*also see [[Firefox hangs or is not responding - How to fix]]
If you are getting crashes are you able to provide the Crash IDs for a couple of recent crashes.
* see [[Firefox crashes - Troubleshoot, prevent and get help fixing crashes]] <br/> they can be found by navigating to about:crashes
Also see
* [[Firefox does not work - Common fixes to get you back up and running]]
*[[Configure Windows Firewall to allow Firefox access to the Internet]]
Apparently you say there is no problem in Safe Mode, if so try Firefox with Hardware Acceleration off, if that helps then instead of leaving it off look at your graphics drivers.
* see [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems#w_turn-off-hardware-acceleration]]_turn-off-hardware-acceleration
* maybe your graphics driver rolled back on the restore, and needs reinstalling see [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]

How do I get application manager to install products after a system restore removed them?

I had some issues starting the computer and had to use system restore to get it runnng.
But that meant that all the applications I installed using creative cloud were gone.
When I started the Application Manger, It read that all the applications that I had installed were still installed.
I don't know how to reset anything to reinstall what I lost. As you can see I says the installed programs are up to date. But they are not on the hard drive.
If anyone can help, thank you very much. Or I wait till they open tomorrow. Barry

Hi Mylenium
i did a Forum search upon AAM issues and came here.
My system and all installed CS6 Applications are running smoothly, just AAM shows some odd behaviour
Most needed applications are installed, but under the "All" Tab, AAM shows "install" on the right, see my screenshot below.
Contrary to that what is seen on the screenshot up there from user "Bar".
under "Updates" it shows all up to date (see screenshot below)
This way, I'm cannot be sure if AAM works correctly or not.
So i have followed your suggested advice and cleaned everythig up, downloaded and installed everything again, ugh!, but problem still persitis.
Usually it should show up which Applications are alredy installed, respectively are up to date and which application are still not installed.
Is there a known issue with AAM?
Thank you.

How can I install the programms again after a system restore?

After my system went down, right after installation of the programms with the Adobe Applicaton Manager, I had to restore the system. Of course by then all the installed applications weren't working.
I will have to reinstall them. But unfortunately I can't download and install the applications again because AAM thinks they are allready installed. Thus far nothing works. Who can help me?

Run the Cleaner tool to remove all the Adobe Software and then check in the AAM.

Losing I-tune purchased songs AFTER using "system restore"

I beg someone to help me. I will get to the point asap, but please be patient with my ramblings since the problem eventually gets to I-tunes.
1-I constantly get this message when launchig yahoo messenger or watching DVD on computer or wanting to listen to my I-tunes purchased/downloaded songs" "The computer's audio output is already in use by another application". Sometimes, I get a message which states that my audio configutation is not correct. This just happened recently. ANYWAY.
2-I decided to do system restore....and restored my system to an earlier version. THIS WAS great.....my audio configuration went back to normal. NOW, THE MAIN POINT:
3-After doing a system restore...I totally lose my I-tunes registration. Even though I restored back to an earlier time...I should still BE able to log back into my i-tunes and store and EXPECT to find my songs. But..boom the songs are gone..it is as if I-tunes never recognized me as a user/purchaser. AND yes, I restored my computer to an earlier time BEFORE I purchased songs from I-tunes. But I do not see how this can be an issue..since....I have alread purchased the songs..and I-tunes or Apple.com has me in their system.
So, my need is: getting my songs back, even though I did a system restore to an earlier date. Yes, I can use system restore again and go back to my recent restore point when I had I-tunes and I can find my songs..but....then...MY AUDIO configuration problem exits, again.
sorry for rambling.
Any help...would be be more than appreciated.
thank you

Error code 0xe0ef0003, No "BOOTMGR" after a system restore, no disc/self system.

So ... my HP Pavilion dv7 NB, that I've owned just a mere two days shy of three years, decided to get extremely lazy late last night. I have malware programs in place, strong security, etc. but I suppose that something might have slipped in ... but unlikely because of the issue I'm having. Which is the same issue that, well, everyone else is having! I do use my PC a lot so no big deal. Since I did everything that is suggested to do prior to an extreme act like a system restore I figured that I had no choice but to do a restore and that all will be well. Saved what images, music and a couple of other things that are important to me onto a disc and started to wipe things clean. I've done this before on my desktop ... which I've had since 2004 (Sony VAIO VGCRB42G) and is still going strong even though it's considered a "relic" at this point. I do take very good care of my things ... So after saving what I wanted I began what I thought was going to be a fairly short process. That started last night. 24 hours and hundreds of posts later I am no closer to figuring out what is going on. Maybe the OS? Microsoft and W7 really isn't ALL that ... it's good but not great by any means. Or could it be the components? Built by HP ... or FOR HP over seas, maybe? Regardless, my experience with HP products lately has been less than stellar. And after reading reams of the same issues that others and I share, with no cure for the elusive 0xe0ef0003/No BOOTMGR bug, it seems that my actions of a mere 6 months ago were spot on .... stop buying HP products.
There was a time when HP was king. They had great products, built right in my own backyard. Heck, my mom used to work for Fairchild. Who probably made some of the components that HP used in their products ... I think ... right here in the good ol' U.S. of A. I used to deliver skids and skids of freight to HP way back when. Now their campuses look like ghost towns. Yet there was a recent major ad campaign and their brand is still taking up shelf space at Fry's on Durham Rd. ... uhh, 'scuse me, Automall ...
I've read a number of "Solved!" messages to which none helped me. But I do appreciate this community for trying ... sorta. Too many of these 'Solved!" messages included the suggestion of purchasing a restore disc, HD or something else. A recovery/restore disc ... something that was always included for free when one bought a new PC. Something that I got with my VAIO. Something that I've only needed to use once with my old a$$ VAIO! I am amazed that my ancient relic of a desktop outlasted my NB by 6+years ... and still going.
So after searching high and low and employing every other suggestion that I haven't tried already, all one of them, that doesn't require me spending more money I've resigned myself to accepting that if I want to be "mobile" with my PCing ... I'll have to buy another. Brand. Don't get me wrong, I love to spend money and I would gladly spend the extra dough if my NB was a little older but since it's so young and already needs a "heart transplant" I'd say the outlook for the rest of it's existence is pretty short and dismal anyway. So I'll just be "putting her down" ...
I'd like to thank you for allowing me the space to rant a little. Please be kind in your responses. I'm not really looking for help to fix my NB. I consider her dead. There are plenty of posts with folks who have the exact same issue. A ton. Mega tons! Chock full of replies and answers on this issue already. Do a search for yourself if you don't believe me! No, I just thought that maybe a muckety muck might be listening. I doubt it but ya never know!
As I am typing this up on my desktop I can't help but notice that I still have two pieces of HP product that I'm still employing: The wireless keyboard and mouse that I'm using at this moment. I sure do hope they don't burn up under my hands before I hit "Post"!

Firefox 4 could not be made to show bookmarks on Vista 64bit. I used system restore to get back to older version. Now Firefox won't open at all even after undoing system restore

I use Vista 64 bit. Was fine with older Version of Firefox (3.6, I believe). Upgraded to Ver. 4. Couldn't access extensive bookmarks file or bookmarks toolbar. Tried all the Firefox help recs and they didn't work. Clicking the top button would give list of toolbars but when I tried to move to bookmarks toolbar the menu changed. Tried going thru tools and options and that didn't work. So decided to use System Restore to get old Firefox version back. Icons remained but program wouldn't open. Tried many ways, including start menu. Old version is still on program control file but only option is to uninstall. So went back to System Restore to get Vers. 4 back and it's not there. What to do?? I can use Google Chrome or Internet Explorer but I want all my 100's of bookmarks back. Thank you.

I did a system restore, trying to get rid of the new update (which I HATE), and now when I try to open iTunes, I get an error message telling me that "This version of iTunes has not been correctly localized for this language. Please run the English version." You can't change the language option unless you can open iTunes - and IT WON'T OPEN!!! What a piece of crap! If there existed an iTunes substitute, I would purchase it in a hot minute!

Strip it out and start again.
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
If you really want to roll back to 11.4 uninstall all iTunes/Apple components as described in the second box, restore the pre-upgrade version of the library as described in Empty/corrupt iTunes library after upgrade/crash, then download and install from one of these direct links:
iTunes 11.4.0.18 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe (2014-09-09)
iTunes 11.4.0.18 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2014-09-09)

1.Backup to External drive 2. CoverArt lost after Windows system restore

I recently spent many hours searching for and applying cover art for my music which was mostly ripped before cover art was readily available.
Because of this investment, I want to be sure my library is fully backed up. I want to use space on an external drive, rather than DVD's.
I noticed as I added art, iTunes started acting sluggish. I thought it might be because of the new version or a recent Windows Vista update. So I decided to run system restore. I was appalled to discover that restore wiped out the art I had added. So I reversed the restore and the cover art returned. It became clear to me that the art must be stored in some other way than in the actual music file. I've searched the forum and found others who had problems with system restore, but no explanation of exactly what I should do if I want to proceed with a system restore. I use system restore several times a year and I have never lost anything in iTunes before I started adding cover art. I also never had a problem with sluggishness til I added a bunch of cover art.
My library is large at 3000 items.
Is there a way to compact or optimize the database to improve responsiveness?
Is there a way to backup to an external drive? Is it just a file copy and export library file?
If I export the library as an xml file before I do a system restore, can I then replace it after the restore and protect my cover art.

To be completely sure what you're doing please take a look at your iTunes Folder and see what Vista stores inside it. To find it, go to Start>Computer>Hard Disk C>Users>Your Name>Music>iTunes>.......
Please note there is an artwork folder PLUS a music folder!
My guess is that your system restore point pre-dated the time you added artwork to your iTunes files. (Celebrate that system restore still works for you--I have not been able to successfully restore for over a year now--Norton Internet Security causes system restore failures for many Windows users! I've tried to do this using Windows XP and Vista--and I can never successfully restore anymore.)
To fully backup your library, just copy the entire iTunes folder to another source--second hard drive, USB drive, or burn it to a CD or DVD, etc.
If you're experiencing "sluggishness" it may be due to the amount of RAM on your system. iTunes needs a great deal of RAM to run smoothly. You can choose to: increase the RAM on your system, OR, turn off cover flow/album view and see if things run more smoothly.

Lost purchased iTunes after computer system restore

How can I retreive purchsed iTunes that I lost after I had my computer system restored? I re-loaded the iPod + iTunes disc and non of my songs seem available to me.

That is going to depend on what you mean by "restore". If you formatted your hard drive and did not have a backup then the music files are gone and you will have to re purchase them all. Same thing if you
If you still have your music files all you need to do is add them to iTunes. Go to File > Add Folder to Lib... and point to where the files are.
If you believe you still have the music files but do not know where they are try doing a search for *.m4p, or *.mpb, or *.mp3. If the files are still on your hard drive then that should find them.

After a system restore, my search bar can't be used

My computer had a system restore after a storm shut my computer off after being frozen. No other issues are going on other than when I try to use the search bar, nothing happens. If I use the drop down box in the search bar, the only options I get are Add "Firefox Help", and Manage search engines. If I click on manage search engines, usually I get a list of options, google, yahoo, etc, but it is completely empty and restore defaults is grayed out.
Per other suggestions on this forum, I have upgraded to the latest firefox version, I have also downloaded the serachreset addon which didn't help. Also, there was another post on deleting the formhistory.sqlite file under my profiles, however, when I went to try this, there was no such file for me. (from this website's instructions http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_search_or_add_new_engines)
Please help as I don't want to have to delete the entire program just to find that upon reinstall, I don't have a fix.

You are sure that they are in browser\searchplugins and not in \searchplugins in the Firefox program folder?
There has been a change and in current Firefox versions some files and folders have been moved to the browser folder and searchplugins is one of them.

Kernel panic after full system restore

Yesterday I noticed that my computer was quite slow. Seeing as how the hd has never been formatted since I have bought the computer in 2006 I thought the drive was badly fragmented. Since there are no free defrag solutions available for mac, I thought I would just format the drive and do a system restore using time machine. I did a full format with 1 pass of zeros then did a system restore. After the restore when the computer rebooted, I got a kernel panic. The kernel panic mentioned something along the lines of "Version mis-match between Kernel and CPU". I then chose to restore to an earlier backup but that yielded the same results.
I have done a lot of googling and most of the solutions to this problem indicate that the restore is being initiated from a Leopard install disc rather than a Snow Leopard install disc. I am using a snow leopard disc.
In the end, I did get my system working by installing snow leopard over top of itself then applying the latest combo update. The reason for this post is so I can hopefully find out why I got the kernel panic. This incident had cost me a lot of time and if I cannot rely on time machine as a backup solution then there is really no point in using it.
Thanks.

Doubtful. See: [About disk optimization with Mac OS X|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1375].

Something in your installation of OSX was probably corrupted, damaged, or missing, and Time Machine backed up the corruption (as would any backup utility). So when you restored, you brought the problem back.
That's likely also the reason your Mac was running "quite slow."

After a System restore event I am unable to 'unpack' the Abobe Creative Cloud App to load it.

I purchase a subscription to the cloud (Lightroom / Photoshop). The APP all downloaded fine after the purchase and the short cut worked, I managed to download the 2 software packages and started to use them. I then had to action a Win 7 Systems restore. Following this the software was no longer on the Laptop. I therefore tried to re-download the APP. This initially seemed to work OK but when running it, the APP appears to start the loading process, then just disappears after a few seconds. I have waited for hours to see if it would finally burst into life. Can anyone suggest what I need to do to restore functionality and what the issue is? Many thanks in anticipation.
