I'm sure its something simple to change it back to the right layout, but for the life of me I can't figure it out, and he can't remember what it was he clicked on :(
Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: command+Shift+F).

The "missing file" thing happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout, or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then say no when asked to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions. I can provide a step by step guide if you give me the two paths.
In some cases iTunes may be able to repair itself if you go through the same steps and locate the lost track. It may then offer to attempt to automatically fix other broken links. Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes.

I am on a iMac using Firefox 3.6.3, and my "Bookmarks" are not working properly after my last upgrade. When I go to "Organize Bookmarks" the boxes for name, tags, visit date, etc. are blank and the arrows are gray. Just in case my Bookmarks are hidden, I tried to restore them by going to the Library window. However Firefox did not ask me "to save the bookmark backup to a folder" on my hard drive as stated in your article "Restoring bookmark backups" 2.2.) Number 4 of the same article tells me how "to restore one of the listed backups" and when I tried this I was told Firefox is "unable to process the backup file." I also tried to go to "Choose File" from the Restore Menu (instead of automatic backup) and clicked on Applications and then Firefox just to see what would happen and was told applications is an "unsupported file type". Also, FYI Torbutton is not installed on my iMac. I don't want to "Create a new places database" without knowing that my Bookmarks are in fact backed up, especially since I received the above message. I was wondering if should uninstall the 3.6.3 and just go back to the 3.6.2. It seems that Firefox updates have a history of wreaking havoc on the older programs. Do you recommend waiting to update until I have gotten feed back as to problems it creates?
This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

When I open iPhoto5, the list (albums, trash, etc.) next to pictures has disappeared. How can I get it back?
You can move your cursor to the far left of the iPhoto window and grab side of the source pane and drag it open - or
A good general step for strange issues is to renew the iPhoto preference file - quit iPhoto and go to "your user name" ==> library ==> preferences ==> com.apple.iPhoto.plist and trash it - launch iPhoto which creates a fresh new default preference file and reset any personal preferences you have changed and if you have moved the iPhoto library repoint to it. This may help
This does not affect your photos or any database information (keywords, faces, places, ratings, etc) in any way - they are stored in the iPhoto library - the iPhoto preference file simply controls how iPhoto works - which is why renewing it is a good first step.

The smaller picture in face time bounced around the screen and has disappeared. How can I get it back.?
I take it this was during a call? Close the app and open it again.
Failing that, and when the call is over, do a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank. Be patient, the device will power ON again in the normal way. It is app and data safe!] -
My old iMac and OS 10.4 will not accept the New iTunes Version 10 application and I can't get past the screen offering to download iTunes 10. This is wrong and I need help getting past this situation. Help!
Sure, you can get around it if you don't need the newest version of iTunes. I still use version 7.5 because the newer versions didn't strike me as offering anything I needed.
If you do need a version 10-something then you will have to upgrade your operating system to Leopard (fi your computer will support it) at least. If you need 10.5 for some reason then there's no getting around it, you will have to buy a new computer. -

Firefox is hidden to the side of the screen and I can't get it back
I have an HP Quad computer running Windows 7. My Firefox browser is hidden off screen and I can't get it back. I've searched problem solving links and nothing has helped. I've uninstalled Mozilla and then reinstalled it and it has the same problem. I've changed the Windows to CasCade Tiles view and it doesn't fix it. I haven't been able to use the browser on my main computer for a week. HELP! PS this is on a different computer than the one I am writing you on. I have been consistent with updates.
The address has now gone - all I needed was another restart. But it did take two attempts. Thanks for your interest. Have also found that the iMac is slower at the moment. Goodness only knows what else I will find when I restart other progs.

dear, there.
how to change the default search engine? I accidentaly change it from google to yahoo, and I can't get it back. I changed my homepage to google too, but it isn't solved. ThanksClarification:
I believe now you potentially lose all extensions, plug-ins when you use the new reset function, but you will let me know.
If that is the case, your find corrupt file method maybe better. However, I reviewed the two help articles and there appear to be more files than just the delete search.json file and a possible search.sqlite file in the Firefox Profile Folder. I am confused. Then I have to find the folders. I think help articles mentioned how to find the profile containing the files, but not sure. -
when i am on my home screen or locked screen, my battery usage and service toolbar has disappeared. How can i get it back?
Yeah there's no setting for that. So either you don't have an iPhone, or your iPhone is jail broken. If it's jail broken, just restore to factory and all will be fixed :)

Upgrading to V4 has lost all of my Bookmarks, I still have the restore files in my profile data but they will not load, I have tried importing the html backup file too but it didn't work either. How can I get them back?
Ok this is bizzare!
Thank you for your response, I went throught each and every step without any luck, even got the recovery programme, and painstakingly tried to sift through all that mumbojumbo to find what i needed. finally found the bookmark bit, but it had been fully overwritten :(, so on reading about previous ff versions, found the sqlite thingys, and they were relatively unscathed(partly written over, but saveable apparently TG), saved them to adiff drive, amongst other possibly good folders. Then looked up how to install them, and it said to close FF, and install to profile folder.
So i tried to close FF, and the original problem from a few days ago, where it asked me if 'i was sure i wanted to close this window as it has X tabs open', popped up again. This is where 'open blank page' selection was set, over 'open previous tabs'. Wanting to save that info on how to sort out these friggin files, I reset the Option to 'open previous tabs', and closed FF. After unsucessfully searching for the profile folder on my laptop, i opened FF intending to search online for where i could find said folder.
AND BANG, surprise surprise, the FF I had just closed with only tabs open about finding out what the heck to do, had disappeared, and instead my original saved tabs were up, and my bookmarks are there..... I am gobsmacked! what the heck just happened there???
I have made 3 back up in different folders now, of those friggin bookmarks. I am weary now tho of shutting it all down.... what if its back to the other pages I had with no bookmarks, tomorrow :( -
All the images in my Speed Dial thumbnails have disappeared and I can't get them back.
All the images in my Speed Dial thumbnails have disappeared and I can't get them back. When I check the settings all the thumbnails have the site shown in the details so should be showing the site in the thumbnail, but they're just blank. I uninstalled Speed Dial and installed it again, but to no avail. Something is stopping the image appearing but don't know what. I paused blocking on Ghostery, but that makes no difference. Any suggestions would be welcome!
See [[menu bar is missing]].
