Solution To Restore the Downloads Library Window in Firefox...

For those of you who want to restore the Downloads Library window in Firefox instead of the tab, there is a rather simple solution instead of downloading add-ons or the non-working browser.download.useToolkitUI Boolean.
Instead, in about:config, add the Boolean string browser.download.manager.showWindow and set it to True. This will show the Downloads Library window instead of the tab.
I discovered this by accident the other day as mine stopped working randomly. So looking through the about:config, I saw the download.manager Boolean strings and figured why not try this, and Voila!, it worked. Hope this helps everyone else! Please pass it on!

What extension do you have installed that adds support for the browser.download.manager.showWindow pref because that pref is not part of Firefox?

How can I restore a single image from an aperture time machine backup, do I have to restore the entire library? that does not make sense

I hope there has been found a more efficiant solution for this, how can I restore a single image from an aperture time machine backup, I really hope I don't have to restore the entire library? that does not make sense
any suggestions?

Did you try browsing your backups in the Finder ? That is, do not go and "Enter Time Machine". Instead, navigate to your Time Machine backup via Finder and then manually go to the time period (by folder name) you are looking for ... when you find your Aperture library you can then "Show Package Contents" and find the Master you are looking for.

How can I re-open the Inspector/Library window?

I'm new in these programs and I don't know what I did and suddenly the Inspector/Library window disappeared and I can't re-open it. I tried it from the Window>Inspector/Library and relaunching the application, but this window doesn't appear. Has somebody any idea how I could do it?. Thanks.

How do I re-enable showing the download files history in the download manager window?

System: Windows XP
I am trying to re-enable showing/retaining the list of downloaded files in the download manager window. I want to be able to drag and drop directly from that window into a folder of my choosing. (I used to be able to do this, but apparently I messed that up...)
I have tried the suggestions that could easily be found, including setting Firefox to remember all history in the Privacy tab of Options.
I also deleted the mimeTypes.rdf file to "reset" the browser defaults, but to no avail.
Any ideas/help?
Thanks.

By the way, a few other things you probably know:
(1) The setting to keep the downloads list displayed after a download is here:
orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > General
Check "Show the Downloads window..." and ''uncheck'' "Close it..."
(2) You can always show the list by pressing Ctrl+j
The mimeTypes.rdf file isn't particularly relevant to this problem; it affects what application Firefox uses to open a particular type of file.
However, there is a database file which stores your download history which might be corrupted. You could rename that file and have Firefox start building a new one.
(1) Open your personal settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder
Help (or Alt+h) > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
(2) Switch back to Firefox and exit the program (e.g., File > Exit)
(3) Wait a few moments for Firefox to finish updating files in your settings folder, then rename '''downloads.sqlite''' to something else, like downloads.old. Alternately, you can delete the file.
(4) You're done with your profile folder and you can restart Firefox now.
Any improvement?

It's not just Download Helper v4.8.3, it's also RealPlayer: the download display window shows .mp3 files downloading, but nothing shows in the folder when it is done downloading.

# Question
It's not just Download Helper v4.8.3, it's also RealPlayer: the download display window shows .mp3 files downloading, but nothing shows in the folder when it is done downloading.
Also in the '''Properties''' window of Windows Explorer I '''no longer have the Details tab''', so I can't update my mp3 files with Artist, Album, Genre, etc. But the details tab does show up when I access it thru Windows Explorer.
I ran the AVG rescue disc an no viruses found. Now on '''FF3.6.15''' '''RealPlayer''' shows when I right click but then '''immediately disappears and an icon appears in the System Tray''', but as soon '''as I hover my mouse over it it disappears'''.
Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions?
How can I get this fixed? I have time-sensitive mp3s that I won't have access to anymore if I don't get this resolved in a hurry. (no pressure on you, I'm the one that's stressed about this) Can you help? Thanks so much for responding to this '''inquiry.''''''bold text'''

From some reason (i'm not sure why..) my whole iphoto library got deleted. I restored the whole library from my backup. The photos are blank but steel have the photo info. (date, res., size etc.) Do you know what's the prob.? why can't i see my pics.

It's says that file does not exist. How come? And why does it still show the image info.?
Where can i find those files (i have a daily backup)
The original image files are missing form your iPhoto library or iPhoto cannot find them, because the link to the originals has been broken. The image info is stored in the internal libraries, independent of the original files. That is, why you are still seeing them.

Try restoring from an older backup, from before you first noticed the problem.
How large is the library, that you restored? Is the file size large enough to hold all your photos, or has the size been reduced? If the library is still large, the photos may still be inside, even if iPhoto cannot find them.

What happened, before your iPhoto library got deleted? Which applications have you been running, or which new software have installed or upgraded? Have you moved the library to a different disk or tried to use it from different user account or access it over the network?

In the middle of undating to iTunes10.6.3 a window comes up saying an older version on bonjour cannot be removed. Then further into the download a window comes up that says the download was interrupted and can not finish and try at a later time.

I am attempting to upgrade to iTunes 10.6.3 and halfway through the download a window pops up that says "cannot remove an older version of Bonjour", then I click Ok on that and then further into the download and upgrade a window pops up that says cannot complete , itunes upgrade was interrupted, try at a later time.What do I do now?

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

I restored the iPhoto Library from yesterday's backup but the photos end in August 2013. Help!

Hi,
my iPhoto library is located on an external hard drive.
Each time I import photos to the Library I perform a complete Time Machine BackUp with the external drive and iPhoto Library mounted before deleting them from the camera or iPhone.
Yesterday I did just that but something happened that corrupted my iPhoto library.
I opened Time Machine and scrolled back to the last backup, selected the iPhoto Library file and clicked restore.
After it completed. I opened iPhoto. The most recent photo in iPhoto is from August 2013.
It looks like all of the photos between August 2013 and yesterday are missing.
Is there any way to restore the complete library back to the most recent version?
Note, each time I ran the Time Machine backup the external drive with the iPhoto Library was connected to the Macbook Pro and included in the locations to be backed up.
What, if anything, can I do to recover the photos from August '13 to the last backup of the iPhoto Library file from a couple of days ago?

How can I edit or change the name of a bookmark in the bookmark library window?

How can I edit or change the name of a bookmark in the bookmark library window? I can figure out just about everything else I can do in the window, but can't seem to edit a bookmark.
thank you

In the Bookmarks Manager you can change the properties of a bookmark in the Details pane at the bottom right.<br />
That Info pane has a More/Less button to show or hide extra properties.
* You can change the Properties (including the name) of a Bookmark or Tag in the Details (Properties) pane at the bottom of the right pane in the Bookmarks Manager (Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks: Shift+Ctrl+B) after selecting an item. You can rename a tag by selecting the Tags folder in the left panel and change the name in the Info pane at the bottom right.
* You can make changes to a Bookmark in the Bookmarks menu drop down list or in the side bar (View > Sidebar > Bookmarks, Ctrl+B) via the Properties entry in the right-click context menu.
* You can open a bookmark in a tab and click the yellow (blue on Mac) star in the location bar to open the "Edit This Bookmark" dialog and see in which folder a bookmark is located.

Restoring the iTunes library from an iPad to a "new" macbook pro

Hi! Really need help here, so this is what happened:
The hard disk of my macbook pro crashed and I sent it for repair.
After the repair, all the data e.g. itunes library, iphotos library
are gone (sigh, i didnt do a backup at all)
So now, the macbook pro is technically "new" and thankfully everything in my itunes library
is still intact in my iPad. I'm trying to sync it back to the mac. Well thats the only way for me to restore the whole library
Is this possible? Please let me know how to do it
MANY MANY THANKS!!!!

Disabling 'Remember History' results in the Download library to malfunction.

I had disabled the 'Remember history' option and when i download anything it doesn't get listed in the 'Downloads' library. It gets downloaded in the background but i am not able to see its progress. When i enable the option to remember history, the current downloads get listed. I am using firefox 26.0

If you do not remember history then you enter Private Browsing mode and you do not keep download history as well.
Firefox manages downloads in the Downloads folder in the Library (History > Show All History)
*Downloads are treated as history items: clearing history removes included download items and vice verse.
*When downloads are in progress you see an animated download button on the Navigation Toolbar showing an estimate of the remaining time
*The Download button gets a green highlight once all download are finished to make you aware that new downloads are available.
*Pause and Resume can be found in the right-click context menu of an item.
The about:downloads page (Show All Downloads) shows the downloads while in Private Browsing mode, but you can't keep them in the Downloads folder in the Library.
