Surprised by the horrible FF29 update, I tried system restore, and it completely obliterated my install. Is there an easy way to repair this?

I wasn't pleased with the auto-update to 29. So I figured I'd roll back to 28 until I had more time to look into the various quirks and whatnot of the new update. Well, in my haste, I didn't really research the best way of doing this and opted for a system restore.
Now my browser install is completely effed. It won't launch at all, and when I attempt to uninstall (via the app or by using the control panel) it does absolutely nothing. Is there (simply) some new file that is causing this problem (and can be removed)? Or is the entire install wrecked? Since uninstalling doesn't seem to be working, will I need to re-install over the top of it? Will I have to go in and manually pull files/folders in order to re-install?
What are my options?

I actually gave you the wrong instructions:
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
More information about reinstalling Firefox can be found [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-and-diagnose-firefox-problems?esab=a&s=troubleshooting&r=3&as=s#w_5-reinstall-firefox here].
<b>WARNING:</b> Do not run Firefox's uninstaller or use a third party remover as part of this process, because that could permanently delete your Firefox data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and saved passwords. <u>These cannot be recovered unless they have been backed up to an external device!</u>

I am trying to convert a .fla file to an .flv file, is there an easy way to achieve this.

I made several movies using symbols and motion twens and now wish to save these as an flv to play in a web browser.
Could someone please respond with an easy solution as I am just learning about this.
Thankyou.

Cheers for the head up, it worked, now I feel like a simpleton. I only saw the choice for doc.fla and thought it must be complicated.
Kind Regards

If I've downloaded my music to an itunes library from an external hard drive and I have several duplicate songs, is there an easy way to delete the duplicate songs? Or, do I have to go through my entire library song by song to delete duplicates?

HT1399 When I import a CD to itunes, it splits the album in to multiple entries. I have changed the info on some but others just will not merge. Is there an easy way to do this and can I stop them from splitting in future? Thanks

Okay this is what fixed my problem. Some kind of error/glitch occured half-way through importing that third cd that prevented further imports from any other cd. Once I completely removed the half-imported cd album from my library I could further import cd's without any problems.

I have a new computer and want to sync my Iphone and Ipad2 to the new computer, is there an easy way to do this?

I have a new computer and want to sync my Iphone and Ipad2 to the new computer (PC) instead of the old one, is there an easy way to do this?

Extract from one of our senior participant.
Syncing with new computer
1) Without connecting your iPad to your laptop, start iTunes. Click on Edit. Click on Preferences. Click on Devices. Check the box next to "Prevent your iPod etc. from automatically syncing." Click OK.
2) Now connect your iPad to your laptop and start iTunes.
3) When iTunes starts, right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select Transfer purchases etc.
4) After it finishes transferring all your apps to your new laptop, right click on your iPad and select Backup your iPad.
5) After it finishes backing up your iPad, right click on your iPad and select Restore etc.
6) After it finishes restoring, left click on your iPad , then click on the Apps tab on top, and check the box next to Sync Apps, then click on Apply below.
If everything on your iPad looks good after the sync, go back and click on Edit / Preferences / Devices and UN-check the box next to Prevent your iPod etc. The only other thing you may want to check is if your contacts, bookmarks, etc. are syncing correctly now. If not, go to the Info tab after connecting and make sure you indicate which features you want to sync with what sources.

Import a playlist from Spotify to buy the songs on iTunes? Why isn't there an easy way to do this? Low hanging fruit Apple.

Yeah, once people get hooked on streaming music, they tend to be much less interested in purchasing downloads, and especially not from a music store that sells songs in an inconvenient (AAC) format instead of the de facto standard, MP3 format.
However, let me not deter you. If you would like to make the suggestion to Apple, you can use the iTunes Feedback page:

HT4623 my iphone 4 needs rebooting after trying to update through air, but i dont have access to itunes. Is there any manual way to do this?

my iphone 4 stop working after trying toupdate, how can i reboot without itunes?

If you mean it's in recovery mode, no. There is no way around it. It must be restored using a computer running iTunes.

HT1711 I think the new upgraded version of itunes is terrible and I would like to know if there is a way to revert back to an older version ????

''"...although I've explained to him that he should not change anything in the Options area, he continues to do it. If there is not a way for me to prevent him from changing anything in Options, then I have no alternative than to prevent him from using the computer at all."''
Maybe taking away his privileges will could teach him a valuable lesson------respect other people's property!

Go to iCloud on a different device sign in and from there youy can also edit your contacts

Updating a PDF form and keeping it accessible... is there an easier way?

So I have some InDesign files that were converted to PDF files then brought into Acrobat X where they were turned into accessible forms.
Now edits need to be made to the content. I've been trying to figure out what the best approach with the least amount of steps to update these accessible PDF forms.
So I export the PDF from InDesign, then..
Option 1:
Open the newly created PDF and the old version of the accessible form and Copy+paste form fields from old file to new file.
The good: Tags, Structure, hyperlinks and reading order transfers over from Indesign.
The bad: Time consuming. Tabbing order for the fields usually needs a lot of manual adjustment. Manually have to add language, title, subject, keywords
Option 2:
Open old PDF form and replace the page with the new PDF file.
The good: Fast! Form tabbing order set. Language, title, subject, keywords all good set.
The bad: Tags, Structure, hyperlinks and reading order are gone! Manually touchup reading order, add form fields to tags (which sometimes deletes fields and crashes)
Option 3:
Open old PDF and use edit document text to fix little issues.
The good: It works for small issues.
The bad: Not an option for anything besides a typo. Can't change layout. Have to do the edit again in Indesign, or have out-of-date files.
Anyone have a better way of doing it?
BTW I'm using InDesign CS5.5 and Acrobat X on Mac

I have two FormCentral accounts and would like to move a large number of my forms from one account to the other without having to recreate them. Is there an easy way to do this?

I do know that I can Export either the design Form OR the Responses then Import them into my other account but I don't see a way to export the entire Form WITH the Responses.
Thanks!

Iphone 3GS won't hold a charge, won't leave the recovery screen and the screen itself is very dim. Is there an easy way to fix this?

I left my phone out in the rain and it got wet, the water got inside the phone and you could visibly see water in the screen. Inside the phone the hardware was a little wet but not soaking. None of the water dectors have been tripped. I have to leave my iphone plugged in otherwise it won't turn on. When it is turned on I can barely see anything other than the recovery screen. On top of that, when I try to restore iOS 6.1.2 I get "unknown error code (1611)." The battery is proberly dead right?

No one on this forum knows anything?
