Upgraded Firefox, where is all my saved tabs (buttons) and quick links?

I upgraded to a new version of Firefox, supposedly to make it run faster, but why do I have to spend an hour setting up my home page again? I didn't save my buttons to favorites because, well I had the buttons.Why can't I just get the improvements without having to start over?

This can be caused by a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • I opened FF today and found that all my saved tab bookmarks and bookmarks on the little arrow off to the side are gone, help?

    Im not sure what its called but there is a little bar(should be) under the search bar, and you can just drag a tab there and it will automatically save. also off the the side there usually are arrows where if you scroll over them it will bring down a drop down menu with all the pages you have dragged there. I had many important things saved. Can anyone help? :\

    Make sure that toolbars like the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible.
    *"3-bar" Firefox menu button > Customize > Show/Hide Toolbars
    *View > Toolbars<br>Tap the Alt key or press F10 to show the Menu Bar
    *Right-click empty toolbar area
    Open the Customize window and set which toolbar items to display.
    *"3-bar" Firefox menu button > Customize
    *check that "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
    *if "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the Customize palette into the Customize window to the Bookmarks Toolbar
    *if missing items are in the Customize palette then drag them back from the Customize window on the toolbar
    *if you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the Customize palette then click the Restore Defaults button to restore the default toolbar setup

  • Firefox 5 has lost all my chrome tab's and capabilities which came with 4? how do I un install 5 and get back to my version 4?

    firefox 5 has lost all my chrome tab's and capabilities which came with FF4? how do I un install 5 and get back to my version 4 & retain all my bookmarks at least I's also like to retrieve my Chrome capabilities as well?

    Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac. There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
    If you prefer, you can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    Mozilla are working to prevent Mac users with non-compatible systems from getting the notification about Firefox 4, and also not displaying the "Download Firefox 4" button on http://www.mozilla.com

  • After recent upgrade to Yosemite on Macbook air bluetooth audio cuts out and associated video stops with audio. Likewise with airplay and Apple TV. I have deleted all my saved wifi connections and restarted numerous times. I do not expect a resolutio

    After recent upgrade to Yosemite on Macbook air bluetooth audio cuts out and associated video stops with audio. Likewise with airplay and Apple TV. I have deleted all my saved wifi connections and restarted numerous times. I do not expect a resolution from the community, but hope to get the attention of Apple engineers. If you are having same problems or have a miracle cure I am all ears.

    May start my own thread, but I'm having similar issues.
    I've been using an old iMac (running 10.7.5) and Apple TV for years with no issues. Last week I bought a new Macbook Pro running Yosemite and have had audio issues multiple times. The weird thing is that sometimes it works flawlessly, other times (like now) I spend half an hour just trying to get a song to play.
    My issues are: When I got to "computers" in Apple TV to stream my music, my music is sometimes chopper or intermittent, and I seen to know when it's going to happen based on the status wheel just before it plays. When I choose a song, the status wheel will spin for an unusually long time, usually an indicator that the audio is either not going to work, or stutter.
    When it does finally pull up a song, the playhead sits at the beginning of the song for a good 3-5 seconds before actually playing. Then, when it starts playing, it's all downhill. It will play a few seconds, drop out, play a few more seconds, drop out, and then ultimately the playhead will keep moving across the song as if it's playing, but there's no audio.
    Again, this is a new phenomenon never experienced by me. I've tried everything I could think of, some of them all at once:
    • restart Apple TV
    • restart Macbook Pro
    • quite iTunes/open
    • turn off Home Sharing on iTunes then reconnect it
    • unplugging and cycling both my modem and router
    None of these have alleviated the problem.
    The odd thing is, like this morning, the audio started up perfectly and never gave me any issues. It wasn't until later in the day that it started. Perhaps after the macbook pro had been put to sleep? Not sure.
    Regardless, this is an annoying trait, one that's new to me and my system (as stated, worked flawlessly until my new purchase), and is 100% limited to either a) the macbook pro b) Yosemite or c) both of them.

  • My tabs are seperated into groups. Once I accidentaly opened a site in a new window (not a new tab). After that, I accidentaly closed the Firefox window with all my grouped tabs. Now, I can't recover it. Are there any solutions?

    I have my tabs seperated into several groups (for example, bank tabs, music tabs, social life tabs and so on). I do this with the help of the button in the top left corner. While I was surfing the internet, I accidentaly opened a site not in a new tab (as I usually do), but in a new window. The new window was without all the grouped tabs, which I had in the previous Firefox window. And then I accidentaly closed the Firefox window with all my grouped tabs. Now I can't recover it. Are there any solutions?

    Hi,
    We have rolled out a fix for this issue.
    Please log off and log back in to your machine and the issue should be resolved automatically. In case that does not work, please manually run the msi installer posted here (may require reboot).
    For details, please refer to the KB article here: Multiple RunOnce keys created 11.0.10 and 10.1.13 Acrobat | Reader
    Please let us know if you still face any issues.
    Thanks,

  • After crashing, Firefox is not re-openeing saved tabs from my last session, but is re-opening tabs from a session over a month old. How do I find my saved tabs?

    After crashing, Firefox is not re-opening saved tabs from my last session, but is re-opening tabs from a session over a month old. How do I find my saved tabs?

    This can be a problem with the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
    Delete [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
    If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.

    I can't find My Photo Stream album after getting the iOS 8 upgrade. Where did all my pictures go??

    That album, My Photo Stream, is no longer used.
    Instead, look in "Recently Added" within Albums, and also within Photos in the various timescale views. Both places should contain photos taken by any of your devices.

  • WHY, WHENEVER FIREFOX UPDATE I LOSE MY SAVED ID'S AND PASSWORDS?

    EVERY TIME FIREFOX UPDATES ITSELF, I LOSE ALL MY SAVED ID'S AND ANY PASSWORDS I HAVE SAVED

    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?
    Details like websites remembering you (log you in automatically) are stored in a cookie.
    It is possible that a website invalidates cookies when they detect a change in the user agent when Firefox is updated.
    If that is the case then there is not much to do about this.

  • In Firefox 4, there is no New Tab button in the Customise Toolbar window - is there one for Frx4?

    In Firefox 4, there is no New Tab button in the Customise Toolbar window? Is there one for Frx4?

    You can find the New Tab button showing as a '+' on the Tab bar.<br />
    You can open the Customize window and drag the New Tab button from the Tab bar on another toolbar and it will become a regular toolbar button like the New Tab button that you have in Firefox 3 versions.<br />
    If you want the New Tab button at the far right end of the Tab bar then place a flexible to the left of it.
    Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"

  • I currently have Lion, when I upgrade to Mountain Lion, all my apps, music, videos and other files will be erased?

    I currently have Lion, when I upgrade to Mountain Lion, all my apps, music, videos and other files will be erased?

    Lion dropped application support for PowerPC. An OS may drop or change what to use to open a file, not the file.
    Of course CCC is what many have used for 10 yrs now and it is or will be $20 like SuperDuper - commercial.
    Always use something like those in addition to or instead of TimeMachine.

  • Si want firefox to ask me about saving id's and passwords at web site

    when I visit a web site i want firefox to ask me about saving id's and passwords after/when entering them

    How to get Firefox to remember your ID and password for signing in to a particular web site, when you have passed up the invitation to do so on your first visit and Firefox does not offer you a second chance.
    Delete the particular web site you are interested in from your Bookmarks.
    Go to Firefox Preferences: Privacy: check “Clear history when Firefox closes.”
    Quit Firefox. Start Firefox again; uncheck “Clear history when Firefox closes.”
    Go to the desired web site; Bookmark it; enter your ID and password.

  • I have lost the tabs on the top where bookmarks are, and all my saved tabs. The screen is very big and the icons on the bottom are gone as well.

    I noticed the tab on top where it says file edit bookmarks etc was missing. There was a Firefox with a down facing arrow and I clicked on it to see if I could find my bookmark tabs. I don't know what I pushed but the 2 other saved tabs under the first one went away. also the icons on the bottom of the screen also went away. I am very computer illiterate and don't know what I did or if I can even get it back.

    Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: command+Shift+F).<br />
    If you are in full screen mode then hover the mouse to the top to make the Navigation Toolbar and Tab bar appear.<br />
    You can click the Maximize button at the top right to leave full screen mode or right click empty space on a toolbar and use "Exit Full Screen Mode" or press F11.<br />
