V 31. installed would not connect to internet, restored to 30, now the pinned tabs due not persist between starting and closing FF.

Installed version 31.0 from version 30.0. It would not display any web pages, e.g. google, had a message about not being able to connect. Did a Windows system restore point to version 30 (I had created a restore point before the install) . FF will now not save pinned tabs between sessions and it will not restore the last page from a previous session. All it will display is the Default FF page.
Can someone give me some idea's about how to fix this. I tried reinstalling version 30 but that did not work to fix the problem.

Hi,
First, thanks for everyone responding. Here is what the problem was....
For some reason, there is a profile under Local in Mozilla and another profile under Roam. The Roam profile was the one that was being pointed to from the Troubleshooting tab under help. The local profile only had some partial files not including sessionstore.js. I copied all the files from the Roam profile to the Local profile. This restored the pinned tabs but not the open tabs from the previous session. I then updated Roam and Local profiles with the last sessionstore I could find in the Roam directory.... for some crazy reason this restored everything. Updating to FF v 31 was what initially caused this.
I did create a restore point before the update, which would not connect any tabs to the internet (e.g. Google). I then restored from the restore point, and ended up with the damaged FF v30 installation, which would connect to the internet but would not pin tabs and remember them or display the last page I had visited as a start page....
So, I hope someone gets a chance to look at FF v31, and why there is a Roam and Local directory with profiles in them ?
Thanks
Gv

  • HT5730 After I installed 10.8.48.4 Internet browsing slowed down to the pace of a dial-up connection.  How can I get back to normal operating speed?

    After I installed 10.8.4, my Internet browsing slowed down to the pace of a dial-up connection -- unless it froze up completely.  How do I get my system back to a normal operating mode?  Can I dump 10.8.4 and go back to the one that at least worked?

    Please answer as many of the following questions as you can. You may already have answered some of them.
    1. Have you restarted your router and broadband modem since you first noticed the problem? If the answer is no, do that now and see whether there's any change.
    2. Are any other web browsers installed, and are they also slow?
    3. What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
    4. Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they also slow?
    5. If you can test Safari on another network, is it slow there too?
    6. If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference?

  • TS1398 My ipad says it is connected to WiFi, which is workingly perfectly for several other devices, will not connect to internet.  It keeps giving the message 'Cannot Connect' or error has occurred or just blink off site or icon?

    My ipad says it is connected to WiFi, which is workingly perfectly for several other devices, will not connect to internet.  It keeps giving the message 'Cannot Connect' or error has occurred or just blink off site or icon?

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • I want to email a Pages document as a Word doc. I used to be able to do this by clicking on share then send via mail then on Word and an email would appear with my word doc attached.  Now the email does not come up.  Why?

    I want to email a Pages document as a Word doc. I used to be able to do this by clicking on 'share' then 'send via mail' then on 'Word' and an email would appear with my word doc attached.  Now the email does not come up.  Why?

    It's difficult to do more than guess when you don't say what version of OS X or Pages you're running, but if you're on the latest, have you tried the Share menu -> Send via Mail command?
    If that doesn't help, you may have better luck if you ask in the Pages forum:

    The icon for his library was there and was not updated when you left his house.
    When you tried to reconnect, it updated and correctly removed the icon.
    To get it back, go back to his house and get on his local network.

    download connections doesn't close after I cancel the download, it keep like I am downloading and only close when I disable the network adapter or reset the router or the firewall.
    I use pfsense as my firewall and see the traffic not reseting to zero when I cancel download.
    Also, IE doesn't have this problem. When I cancel the download the traffic drops to zero.

    And this problem seems to be systemwide. Since I created a new user and under which problem still exists.
    Hope apple will look into it

  • While trying to instal Mountain Lion OS on my macbook pro, I got the error message that my HD was damaged and it reverted to my Lion OS. Why does this happen? I bought the OS online through the app store

    While trying to instal Mountain Lion OS on my macbook pro, I got the error message that my HD was damaged and it reverted to my Lion OS. Why does this happen? I bought the OS online through the app store.

    The Mountain Lion installer looks at your internal drive to make certain that it's error-free before continuing installation. You should have an application named "Install OS X Mountain Lion.app" in your Applications folder now so you shouldn't have to download it again. Do this...
    Boot to your Lion recovery partition by holding down both the Command and the R keys while booting. Open Disk Utility from the Recovery partition and select your hard drive (usually named "Macintosh HD" unless you've renamed it) and click on Verify Disk. If you come up with any errors, click on Repair Disk. At the end of the cycle you will get a message that the disk was successfully repaired or a message that the hard drive could not be repaired.
    If you're able to repair the disk, just reboot as normal and open the "Install OS X Mountain Lion.app" and the installation will proceed. If Disk Utility was unable to repair the disk, you need to get to your local Apple Store as soon as possible so that they can see if the disk is salvageable or beyond repair.
    Good luck,
    Clinton

  • Photos not syncing between Mac and iPhone since update to Photos on Mac.

    Ever since I updated to Photos on my Late 2013 macbook pro retina, photos are not syncing between it and my iPhone 6. Both are updated to the most recent software update. Photo stream is on. Does anyone have this problem or know a solution?

    You will have to go the the Photos tab in iTunes when you connect the iPhone.  Then reset the photo sync options.  They were reset with the upgrade to use iCloud by default, but you can change the settings back to sync folders, just like before.

  • IBooks not syncing between iOS7 and Maverick

    iBooks not syncing between iOS7 and Maverick
    Just updated my MBP to Mavericks and only a few items have synced from my phone to the mac in iBooks.  The phone was also updated to iOS7.0.3 (the latest) today too before the Mavericks update.
    Does anyone else have this problem?  Is this a bug which will hopefully be fixed shortly? Or is there something I can do to resolve this?
    I have a number of .pdf´s in iBooks (.pdf books) on the phone and would obviously want everything on the phone accessible on the computer, as is the idea.
    Many thanks for your help/advice.
    Susan :S

    This has been my headache since day one and a complete swing and a miss by Apple.  I haven't been able to get ANYTHING I have not explicitely purchased from iTunes to sync in iBooks across device.
    For example:  If I load an ePub or PDF into iTunes and "manually" add to a device, this works just fine.
    However, if I open a PDF file on my iPhone into iBooks, it doesn't show up in any of my other devices, including the new iBooks on my iMac with Maverick.  it doesn't matter which device it's added, nothing syncs if it's not purchased from iTunes.
    Please, someone make me a liar and tell me I've completely missed something.
    Apple:  Why or why can't I add PDF files to iBooks on my iMac and have them automagically show up in the collection I created on all my devices?  Because I didn't purchase them from you, you say?  Stupid, stupid, stupid.
    Then don't let me add it in the first place and stop advertising "my content anywhere on any device" because this has been broken from day one.
