Saved passwords disappeared after forced reboot of the system.

As I said. After force reboot of the system the list of all my passwords was cleaned up. Bookmarks are ok. FF was closed, before reboot. Any ideas how to return them ?

Hi Ishini,
No problem. Firefox would not keep a back up of "key3.db" anywhere. So, if you want to recover your passwords, try to use the following tool.
* [https://www.piriform.com/recuva Piriform Recuva]
Just download the free trial and attempt to recover the "key3.db" file. Just point it to your Firefox installation directory.
This should solve your problem, but there is no guarantee that the file will be there.
So, if this helped, mark it as helpful, so other users who are facing the same or similar issues, can resolve their problem as well.
Have a good one,
Michael.

After a reboot of the system firefox 6 take about 5 minutes to start, I thought it was suspposed to be faster

I upgraded to firefox 6 on Monday, and rebooted the system today (friday) when I tried to open firefox 6 it took almost 5 minutes to start up, and then it was completely available for a about another minute or so.
I thought 1 of the key advantages of upgrading was that firefox 6 was suspposed to start up a lot faster.

My ipod shuffle disappears after I click on the icon in Itunes. I reinstalled Itunes and my computer has been updated. What else can I do?

The shuffle icon in iTunes disappears, after you click on the icon in iTunes? If so, if you do not click on the shuffle icon in iTunes, does it remain there indefinitely? Are you looking at the shuffle icon in the iTunes sidebar?

How do I make drag sources disappear after being moved to the correct drop target in Captivate 7

How do I make drag sources disappear after being moved to the correct drop target in Captivate 7

Thank you so much. I could have searched a very long time and not found that. It is counter-intuitive to me that I would set the behavior for the drag source on the properties for the drop target.

Any reports of Firefox 19.0.0 causing XP to eratically causing a reboot or the system, or crashing and lockups

XP erratically, and at random, shuts down, and reboots for no apparent reason. Will run for varying lengths of time between failures. Any reports of Firefox 19.0.0 causing XP to eratically cause a reboot or the system crashing and lockups. Seems to have begun after installing Fire Fox 19.0.0

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.

You need a computer with iTunes installed to regain use of your iPod. Unless you have the iPod backup file from the syncing computer all you can do is to restore the iPod to factoery defaults/new iPod. You will also need to place the iPod in recovery mode is you restore the iPod on other than on its syncing computer. For reoverymode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
Remember the passcode is a security feature.

Why did my saved passwords disappear, and now even with private browsing off I cannot get Firefox to save the passwords over again. Care to help on this????

The most recent version of Firefox just loaded onto my computer and all of my previously saved passwords are gone. To top it off I went in to the Privacy settings and turned off private browsing in order to start saving my passwords again, and it will not save, it doesn't even give me the pop up to ask if I want to save it. Care to help here? I'm way beyond angry right now, some of those passwords were rather unique and I will have a hard time recalling them exactly so not looking forward to having to reset them...

You can force Firefox to reimport the passwords from the signons.sqlite file.
* reset the signon.importedFromSqlite pref on the about:config page to the default value via the right-click context menu
* delete the logins.json file in the Firefox profile folder with Firefox closed
When you restart Firefox then you should have the signon.importedFromSqlite pref with the value set to true and you should have the passwords imported in the Password Manager unless there may have been errors.
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar.
You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.

Windows 8 offline files on network share disappear after offline reboot

Hello,
We are using Group Policy Preferences to map a drive for our users. Windows 8 users who make this drive, or some of the files\folders in it, 'Always available offline' are finding that the network drive disappears completely if they do an offline reboot.
Windows 7 users are fine - their drive\files\folders continue to be visible and available even after an offline reboot.
Our domain is Windows 2008 R2.
I've had a look around for suggested solutions to this issue. So far I've tried re-initialising the offline
file cache and ensuring that hotfix 2795944 is installed on the Windows 8 machines as these seemed to fix similar issues for other people. However, neither have worked for me.
Can anyone suggest anything else that might solve this issue please?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Ros

Hi Roger,
Thanks for your reply, but I'm afraid your suggestion hasn't worked.
I added that DWord value ([HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System]
"EnableLinkedConnections"=dword:00000001) into the registry and rebooted while connected to our network. When
I logged back on, I'd lost my network mapping completely. I ran a gpupdate /force to reapply the group policy. When I logged back on, the drive mapping was back but incorrectly - it was mapped to the root of the 'Users' directory on the file server
instead of users\username as it should be.
I deleted the registry key, rebooted and my drive mapping was back to users\username as expected. However, it still loses the mapping as soon as I do an offline reboot.
The 'Reconnect' option is not checked in our Group Policy.

My saved passwords disappeared unexpectedly.

I don't know what or why but my saved passwords have disappeared a couple of different times now. I've read the article on passwords, but that has not solved the mystery or answered my question.
== This happened ==
Just once or twice
== unknown

Do you mean names and passwords in the Password Manager or do you mean that you are no longer logged on to (remembered by) websites after closing and restarting Firefox?
If the latter happens then you have a problem with cookies that are not kept or the file that stores the cookies is corrupted.
Make sure that you do not use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the "Cookies" and the "Site Preferences"

Saved Passwords disappearing one-by-one, FF 5.0

Since upgrading to Firefox 5.0, '''some''' of my stored passwords are disappearing. Earlier this morning I logged into a webmail site where I have more than one account (with saved password). Later, I went to log on to another account on the site, and I noticed the username/password used earlier, were no longer in the list. I checked in 'Tools - Options - Saved Passwords', and that entry was gone. This has happened to multiple passwords to multiple sites. How can I prevent my passwords disappearing?

-> go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Privacy -> History section -> '''Firefox will: select "Use Custom Settings for History"''' -> REMOVE Checkmark from '''"Permanent Private Browsing mode"''' -> place CHECKMARKS on:
1) Remember my Browsing History 2) Remember Download History 3) Remember Search History 4) Accept Cookies from sites -> click '''Exceptions...''' button -> click '''Remove All Sites''' at the bottom of "Exception - Cookies" window
4a) Accept Third-party Cookies -> under "Keep Until" select "They Expire" -> click '''Show Cookies''' button -> select the Cookies you want to Delete and click '''Remove Cookies''' -> click '''Close''' button
-> REMOVE CHECKMARK from CLEAR HISTORY WHEN FIREFOX CLOSES
-> '''When using the Location Bar, suggest: select History and Bookmarks'''
-> Click OK on Options window
Check and tell if its working.

I do have the exception saved password box that opens&removes but the do not have the Security seach bar for saving site passwords how do I get to this?

How to add websites to the Options then to Security to Remember password on sites to Exception pass words?

Sorry, I don't understand what you are asking. See if this add-on has ther features you want.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/saved-password-editor/ 
Adds the ability to create and edit entries in the password manager.

Today withI have lost all my bookmarks passwords profile after Firefox updated to the newest versionout asking me first

I have lost all my bookmarks passwords profile etc after Firefox updated to the newest version today without asking me first. I liked what I had & several times a day it would say there are updates but I closed those popups or messages. Im now using the latest version just so I can have some use while I try to sort this out & get help.

I'm adding that I tried system restore several times .... & my last full backup.... but each time something was corrupted or would not launch or there was no '''.exe '''file in the program folder...Ive never seen this before, & the Mozilla backup I had was useless... it was unable to launch either

Has anyone had this message come up after a reboot unfortunately,the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped?

I get this weird message after I down loaded the 4.2.2 update saying that gapps has stopped

You mean 4.4.2 download of KitKat. 4.2.2 was Jelly Bean.
If you haven't seen it again, I wouldn't worry too much. I think on my LG G2, post upgrade, I saw it.
You could go to Settings | Application manager then scroll to the right till you see All, then scroll down, and make sure you see Download Manager, and press it, and verify that it is Enabled.
