When I start firefox, the previous tabs are there but blank and say new tab, can I restore the tabs?
how can I do this?

I'm not sure what causes this.
As the first step, I recommend backing up your existing sessionstore files.
Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using
Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
Scroll down to the files whose names start with sessionstore. You should find at least sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak. If the .js extension does not appear on sessionstore, you should turn off the Windows feature that hides file extensions from you, so that you can work with file names as accurately as possible. This Microsoft support article has the steps: [http://support.microsoft.com/kb/865219].
Make backup copies of all the sessionstore files to somewhere like your Documents folder for possible later restoration.
Next, try one of the data mining techniques in these posts to rescue the URLs from the sessionstore.js or sessionstore.bak file:
* Using Firefox's Browser Console (formerly known as Error Console): https://support.mozilla.org/questions/969046#answer-471950
* Using Firefox developer tool "Scratchpad": http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=622036&start=60&p=12098147#p12098147

When I start firefox, the previous tabs are there but blank and say new tab, how do I retrieve these tabs?

Firefox recently did an automatic update for firefox to version 29 upon restart and all the tabs I had before won't load as before. It appears that the number of tabs open up saying "new tab" on each one but they won't load once I click on them as before the update. I'm trying to find a way for those links to show again. I used herokuapp.com as mentioned in another article but all the blank tabs are shown as about:blank.

Sorry to hear about that. Can you check your profile folder for a special .bak file created during the upgrade? Here's what I mean:
Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using either
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
* Help menu > Troubleshooting Information
In the first table on the page, click the "Show Folder" button
This should display your profile folder. Scroll down and look for a file with a name similar to the following (the date part will be different):
sessionstore.bak-20140506152807
Make a copy of that file to a more convenient location, such as documents, and try to use one of the file recovery methods to find your missing URLs in there. You might need to change the file ending to .bak or .js if it's hard to load with the date included.
For data mining the URLs, I think you already know the options, but for anyone else reading, see: [https://support.mozilla.org/questions/998414#answer-567734].

Okay, so my friends music downloaded to my iPhone when i put it on his computer to charge and i re-synced it to mine and all his music is still there but blank and wont play how can i get it off of my phone, its so annoying!! My itunes only has like 4 songs because my computer crashed and lost all my songs, and I'm not trying to steal his music. But like I said its still in the music app on the phone but its all blank and wont play. I just want it off.

When he plugs it into his Mac again, he should be asked if he wishes to sync with that Mac.

Whenever I try to open a new tab, the tab just goes blank and says "New tab". I can't open any websites. What do I do?

It started very suddenly. The tab just went blank when I tried to open a new one, and then just continued every time I open a new tab. It loads the selected website for a milisecond, and then just goes blank and says "New tab". In my own language of course. I tried reinstalling, rebooting and nothing seems to do it. I have Tab Mix Plus as a tab manager.
What can I do? Please help.

That did the trick. But I had to start Firefox in safe mode, because it just went to the blank page where the Troubleshooting page should have been, of course. Thanks for the help anyway. Now I just need to get my old addons back.

TS1702 On my iPad 2 the mail app opens and the page icons are there but no mail. I can access my mail in other ways so I know mail is being received.

On my iPad2 the mail app opens and the page icons are there but no messages are shown. I know mail is being sent as I can access it in other ways plus the envelope icon on my homepage continues to show the number of messages received.
I have rebooted twice now but cannot think of anything else to do
Help please

Go to Settings>Mail the account and turn the account off and then back on
Next delete the account from the iPad and reenter the settings.

My iphoto pictures are there but doesnot show them. I see them on the above line but the each individual picture is a blank

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

If other Internet applications such as Mail and iTunes also don't work, run the Network Diagnostics assistant. How far do you get?

I've had all kinds of trouble keeping my iTunes software current over the past year, but have found the easiest way to remedy the issue is to simply download the latest version of iTunes as though I am a first-time user and then just install it into the directory my current version of iTunes is using. Doing this has allowed me to update my software without losing any of my media/data. Hope this helps! Best of luck!!!

Have you tried logging out of your account on your iPod by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then logging back in to see if that 'refreshes' the account on it and if it then works ?

I've upgraded my 4th gen ipod to ios6. I manually manage videos and music. My video playlists(which I can access via the music icon) are there but my videos aren't. I can see the videos when tapping the videos icon so I know they are there. Any ideas?

I've upgraded my 4th gen ipod to ios6. I manually manage videos and music as it is easier to access my videos through playlists which I access through the music icon. Since upgrading to ios6 the playlists are there but when I go into them the individual videos aren't visible. I know they are there because I can access them through the videos icon. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? Thanks.

Does it still turn on to the Apple logo?
If it does, turn it on and hold it up to your ear. If it's making a clicking sound, try hitting it easy a few times on the side. The idea is the hdd is "stuck" and hitting it loosens it. Just don't do it too hard to break it.

Why do my app tabs dissapear when i close firefox each night? I have reset preferences so the tabs are there but they are large tabs not app tabs. thank you!

as instructed, i also exit firefox using the drop-down menu and the cute little app tabs still disappear.

-> Check if you are running Firefox in Full Screen mode
* [[How to Use Full Screen]]
-> If your Navigation Toolbar is missing, see these articles:

* [[How do I customize the toolbars?#w_how-do-i-show-and-hide-the-different-toolbars|How do I show and hide the different toolbars?]]
For your App Tabs problem, did you perform the suggestions mentioned in my previous reply ???

Buttons in the Finder toolbar are there, but empty when window is active

When I am viewing a Finder window, and it is the foremost window, the buttons in the toolbar are empty:
When I click on another Finder window and the previously mentioned window goes into the background, I can see them:
Another interesting artifact of this issue is anywhere in menus there should be an arrow indicating a submenu, those arrows do not display. Also, in Preview, for example, the buttons are all empty.
An interesting correlation is that iPhoto also started giving me issues with thumbnails being black around this same time (2 days ago).
I believe the only thing that changed on my system was I installed drupal with homebrew.
Any help is appreciated, as the strangeness (and lack of usability) of these display issues concerns me.

The only way I found to fix this was to boot to the repair partition and reinstall OSX. All my settings and programs were retained.

After closing firefox 7.0.1,win7 64bit,and reopenning,tabs on toolbar are there but wont open (something new).

Something new today. I am getting recently viewed tabs on the task bar (each of these may have a few tabs) which appear on the taskbar but wont open. In order to get something to open I have to reclick on the Firefox icon on the desktop. Then that session opens okay with multiple windows and tabs...but those other tabs remain unopennable .When hovering over them on the task bar they show blank boxes, whereas the others look ok.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
Delete the files sessionstore.js [2] and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
* Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
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.<br />
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).
