Web site icons gone

I am setting up a new computer with newest v of Firefox and Windows 7.
Went to most used web sites (Home Depot, Sears etc) r clicked..pin to toolbar and they were all there. Very Happy. This morning, turned on the computer and they were gone.
What happened? How do I not lose them again?
Thanks!

Thank you for your speedy reply.  I fouond the webpageicons.db file in the Safari file in the Libarary but once accessed asks me what software do I want to use to open it.  So I chose MSWord and got the following odd message
SQLite format 3 @  cø‑[1]˚˚pæ![1]zyÉÅ
!A-ÅIindexIconDataIndexIconData with lots of peculiar small empty rectangles (looking like place holders???) that don't show up on my copy/pasting the text here in this response. 
I don't know what to do now? 
Much obliged for any info you can provide.

  • Web site icon on the dock for OSX 10.7.4

  • Re-installed OS X, Now my web-site is gone

    I was having major problems with OS X. So I deleted everyting and started from scratch. I created a new site in iWeb. I can see some old and the new files in my iDisk.
    However, I can't publish the site. Do I need to completely erase my iDisk and start over? Thanks.

    No problems here either, make sure that if you are typing the full url:
    http://web.mac.com/rietman/iWeb/Site/ the W in iWeb must be a capital W.
    But as Tom says, you can just use http://web.mac.com/rietman
    Your website is contianed in the domain.sites file which lives here:
    User / Libarary / Application Support / iWeb / domain.sites <-- Its a good idea to keep a backup of this file!
    Something that may be worth doing is Publishing All, to do this, press and hold the alt key, to the left of your left Apple key, and go to File > Publish All to .mac.
    This forces everythingn to be uploaded, it may sort it out for you without the need to do anything manually.

  • How do I add an web site icon on to my desktop directly from Mozilla Firefox as I did with Internet Explorer 8 by right click my mouse and send to desktop?

    How do I add a website icon to my desktop from Mozilla Firefox?

    >If they could actually save the filled in document that would be just as good because they could attach it to an e-mail
    In Acrobat Pro, open the form and go to the Advanced menu and choose enable usage rights for Reader users.
    Now, they will be able to fill out the form and save it to send it back to you in an email.
    Be aware that there is a 500 use per form limit so this isn't a good answer for high volume use forms.

  • On desktop almost all icons are Mozilla icons. How do i change them to the icons of the web sites?

    When i place web sites on my desk top, very few of them keep the original web site icon. They change to the Mozilla icon, the globe with the fox wrapped around it.
    How do i change these back to the web site icons?

    You can't and that is very wasteful of resources, good thing computer now have a lot more storage and memory. That used to be something that slowed down system startup.
    I just have applications in the Start, desktop, and quick launch.

    Suggest you make them keyworded bookmark shortcuts then you can call them up from Firefox with a name you assign yourself typically 1-7 characters, could be all initials in some cases, words, or anything.
    * http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/kws.htm
    I keep most of my keyword shortcuts in one folder "K" on my bookmarks toolbar, and the keyword is at the beginning of the title and sorted on the title so they are sorted on the keyword. The current folder actually has a distribution date on it so it isn't as short a name as I had intended. The "AwesomeBar" feature helps me to remember one if I forget it.

  • Apple Web Site Default Icon, Gone..

    Hi There,
    I seem to have tossed my Apple Web Site Default Icon..
    I remember seeing the puff of smoke which means I moved it a little to far, and now I'd like to get it back.
    You know the one, it looks like an A, or an @ on a spring or something..
    Any help would be great..
    Thanks,
    Eric

    Hi Eric
    you can make a new one for any website, not just Apple's....while you're on the webpage you want, click & drag the icon in the address to the dock, the area near the trash where your original one was.
    These 'web internet locations' can also be dragged to the desktop, or any folder you want.
    see this apple doc

  • After numerous display problems with version 5 affecting my job's web site, I've gone back to 3.6.18. Any dangers in this?

    My workplace's web site was recently redesigned and launched and with more recent versions of Firefox [including 5] I had both display and functionality problems I hadn't had before and that aren't happening with IE8. Everything from wrong colors to scroll bars in editing text boxes that wouldn't work unless you toggled to full page view and back, to excessively constrained columns on the main portal page. Two support people at our web site company told me they still used 3.6.18 so I uninstalled 5 and went back to 3.6.18. Some colors are still wrong [I tried the troubleshooting suggestions for that to no avail] but at least the functionality problems are gone. Firefox has been my preferred browser for several years now, but I worry about the ramifications of using such an older version.

    Going all the way back to Firefox 3.0.5 is shear foolishness, it is 14 security versions behind the last 3.0.19 release. And that version is missing at least a dozen security updates that were applied to the 3.5 and 3.6 versions after support for 3.0.x ended.
    If you are not happy with Firefox 4, you should have installed Firefox 3.6.17. That is very similar to the 3.0 and has all the security fixes that have been released since support for Firefox 3.0.x ended last year.

    The first time an iPhone is connected to iTunes that is used to sync with another iPhone or iOS device, you are prompted to transfer the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device or to set up the iPhone as a new iPhone.
    The former does as provided - it transfers the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device to the iPhone replacing all data on the iPhone that is included with the backup being transferred. The latter does nothing allowing you to make your various selections for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
    This is designed to be done right away with a new iPhone.
    If you don't have a backup for the iPhone with iTunes on your computer and don't have an iCloud backup that hasn't been updated since choosing to transfer the backup for your iPod Touch to the iPhone, the data that was on the iPhone is gone.

  • Crystal Report Viewer icons do not show in Web Application Project in VS2005 (Web Site Project OK)

    Post Author: jsdude99
    CA Forum: Crystal Reports
    Hi,
    With Visual Studio 2005, the Icons at the top of the CrystalReportViewer do not show on Web Application Project. However, If I have a web site project, they are all shown. Please note that I found number of posts that people not seeing the icons after the deployment but my case is the development environment. Once I pass the first hurdle I may face further problems like the other people, so If you happen to know answers in both situations, please share your knowlegde..
    PS: I created two new types of projetcs and have just a CrystalReportViewer on the default page. Data is shown fine but the icons are missing (red X placeholders instead of icons) in Web Application Project. Very straight forward test.

    We havent tried that.  We changed the link in the web part to access an html page that claims that the report is loading.  It states in the html that if the page doesnt load to "click here" which redirects to the crystalreportviewer.  Its a temp fix for it.  One thing we are looking at is the 64 bit version of the Sharepoint integration kit.  That may contain a reportviewer webpart.
    Thanks for the reply.

  • After right-clicking the Firefox Icon, a window pops up with one of the titles being "Frequent." Web sites are always being added to this section that I do NOT want. Is there a way to control the number of listings under "Frequent?"

    After right clicking the Firefox Icon, a window pops up above the icon with three sections in it. Two are titled, they are "Frequent" and "Tasks."
    The "Frequent" section each time I see it, has added previous sites that I have visited. This list then has lots of duplicates in it. I do not need that, and would like to keep this listing a a favored few.
    Is there a way to stop having superfluous web-sites added to the "Frequent" list ??
    Thanks!

    Hi--I tried your suggestion and no dice. A window came up with the following:The item 'Firefox.exe' that has this shortcut will no longer work properly. Do you want to delete?
    Another window said 'C:Program files (x86) Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe' specified in the target box is not valid. Make sure the path and file name are correct.
    I have no clue as to what that means. I did delete the shortcut.
    Finally went into our Kaspersky virus protection and found Firefox is in quarantine and that is probably why I am unable to uninstall and reinstall.
    Any ideas????
    Thanks, Ginny

  • Icon/web site popped up on screen.  i can not delete it or put i

    icon/web site popped up on the screen, i can not delete it or put it in the trash. how do i get rid of it without opening it?

    Open your Browser Preferences and uncheck [√] Javascript (and Java as well if that is checked).
    This will disallow any scripts, and give you back control. This works for the "FBI" ransomware as well.

    Installed the new 10.6.2 server update, now all of my web services site are gone. They still exists on the drive and in the folders, but web services will no longer configure or save due to errors stating null fields, even though fields are completed appropriately for setup. What happened?
