Why did Mozilla (v.4) erase all my bookmarks which existed yesterday? Can these kinds of disasters happen again in the future with Firefox? Mozilla developers: we are living in 2011...

Firefox makes bookmark backups daily in the following location: C:\Documents and Settings\{Username}\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\123xxx.default\bookmarkbackups (where "123xxx.default represents a randomly named folder).
To restore from one of them, hit CTRL+SHIFT+B to open the Bookmarks manager and then click "Import and Export" | Restore and choose a date. See screenshot.
Before you do that though, could you please hit CTRL+I
Can you see any Bookmarks in there?

  • Each song on my iTunes has a duplicate. How do I delete all duplicates and prevent this from happening again in the future?

    Each song on my iTunes has a duplicate. How do I delete all duplicates and prevent this from happening again in the future?

    After I had updated to Itunes 11 (also on Windows 7), I had the same experience, but I suspect that it was because I accepted a proposal to set up an external media library in order to simplify security backups. An associated result was that I had lost all of my playlists!
    What I did was to restore the entire library off my Ipod, using a very good program called PodToPC (a free download is available) selecting an option to replace all of the stuff in the Itunes library. I use the Ipod Classic simply because it has a large capacity to hold my collection of CD and Vinyls. No way was I going to modify duplicates of 10000 tracks in 750 playslists by hand!  I did have a few residual problems with some of the playlist specs but, after a few hours of work all was restored.
    I hope this is useful.

    I have an iPhone 4s, but wifi the option is greyed out. The wifi stopped working on it months ago. Now I wanted to erase all content and setting from my old 4s and it will not connect to the internet, because the cellular data is no longer connected, since I bought a new iPhone 5c. I can't erase my phone by pluggin it into my Macbook Pro, since I can't disable the "Find my iPhone" App without internet. How do I erase all the data and setting on my 4s without connecting to the internet? It is running ios 7

    I just did it. To enter DFU mode, I had to use "method 3" on this post

    Too bad my 4S is 2 years old. Wifi is dead. I had to upgrade to 5S, but 5S is soooooo much faster than 4S so it's kind of good outcome. Without the 4S breaking down, a stingy person like me would have never upgraded the phone.

  • I just purchased the Life 11 and it erased all of my pictures.  I can't seemI can't seem to contact the store.  What should I do?

    I just purchased the Life 11 and it erased all of my photos.  I can't seem to contact the store.  What can I do?

    Upgrading to iLife shouldn't delete your iPhoto library and hopefully you have a backup to restore from just in case.
    Apple recommends backing up your iPhoto library routinely >  iPhoto '11: Back up your iPhoto library
    Try rebuidling the iPhoto library.
    Hold down the Command + Options keys then launch iPhoto.
    Keep the keys held down until you are prompted to rebuild the library.
    A dialog will appear with rebuild options. Select the options you want to use.
    Click Rebuild to begin the rebuild process. This may take a few minutes to complete.

    Chrome did something. Insetad of all my Bookmarks, settings and Apps it's a fresh Chrome. Like the day it started. Virgin, naked, nothing there.  How do I restore the Chrome that was there?

    Chrome 'syncs' your information to its servers, so you can restore this information when you sign into your account, regardless of what device you are using. As for the latter part of your comment, I am not really following. I don't have Chrome currently installed on my machine so I can not help you step by step. All I know is you must SIGN IN to your google account on chrome and check the chrome preferences.
    Google dashboard will show you all the information associated with your google account stored on their servers:

    Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
    To minimise loss... Connect to iTunes on the computer you Usually Sync with and Restore from the most recent Backup...

    What Mende says is true IF you have previously decided to back up to iCloud and not iTunes on your computer.

    I think this problem may be caused by Yahoo's changes making it incompatible with the klatest version of FireFox.
    This is suddenly affecting many many people who use Firefox and are members of Yahoo Groups. All these people say they themselves changed nothing and have not been locked out before when using Firefox. But suddenly, within the last week, they are.
    What did Mozilla do or what did Yahoo do to cause this problem? I can say that I was not blocking cookies and after trying a number of things to fix it, I went to Yahoo's home page and navigated to my group from here.
    This problem is not anything a user did. Either Firefox is at fault or Yahoo is. I want to know which company is at fault and when they are going to fix it.

  • HT201272 I connected my iphone to iTunes and it erased my ringtones. It also makes me pay for my ringtones over again on the iTunes app, even though it says that I've already previously purchased the item.

    I connected my iphone to iTunes and it erased my ringtones. It also makes me pay for my ringtones over again on the iTunes app, even though it says that I've already previously purchased the item.

    I should mention that I also did a restore hoping that would solve the problem but it did not, and it was after this that I lost some of my music. 

  • I just imported 70 photos successfully, edited them, and then attempted to upload them to a Facebook album.  It did not work and got hung up, so I force quit IPhoto and was going to try again.  The 70 photos have DISAPPEARED!!  Help !!!!

    What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later...
    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 Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places 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.

  • Upon syncing my iPhone and mac all of my ical and iPhone calendar events have duplicated. how can i fix this and avoid it in the future?

    upon syncing my iPhone and mac all of my ical and iPhone calendar events have duplicated. how can i fix this and avoid it in the future?

    Greetings,
    Questions:
    1. What version of the Mac OS are you running (Apple > About this Mac)?
    2. What version of the iOS are you running (Settings > About)?
    3. Do you backup your computer (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1427)? 
    --- If you don't regularly backup your computer, now is the time to start.
    4. Do you backup your iPhone (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766)?
    Check the calendar list on the left hand side of iCal.  Is it that the individual events are duplicated or is it just that you have the same calendar listed more than once?  If its that you have more than 1 copy of each calendar, you can delete one of the duplicate calendars to eliminate the duplicates.
    If you find that it is the individual events that are duplicated then there are 2 options:
    1. Restore your computer iCal database or iPhone from a backup made before the duplication occurred.
    2. Use a duplication removal program (or do it by hand) to remove the duplicates: http://www.nhoj.co.uk/icaldupedeleter/
    If you have a backup made before the duplication occurred, reply back with what kind of backup you have and I'll suggest how to recover the calendars.
    To avoid this issue in the future:
    Keep regular backups.  They are your best defense against data anomalies which are a fact of life in computers (although hopefully rare).
    Keep your computer and iPhone software fully up to date (Apple > Software Update / Settings > General > Software Update).
    Make sure the date and time on your computer and iPhone are correct before you sync the two devices.
    Make sure the cable connections between the two is solid and that the cable shows no signs of physical damage.
    Hope that information helps.

    Max,
    It really can take very long to import and process so many images - I would not dare to make a prediction.
    Can you open the Activity Viewer?
    From Aperture's main menu bar: Window > Show Activity.
    This window will tell you the filename of the image that is currently being processed.
    if you are seeing, that the import is still far from being finished, you might to pause certain tasks directly from this panel, like the generation of previews or scanning for faces. I'd let the import run, if you see that it is making progress.
    Have you enabled very time-consuming options, like the generation of high resolution previes or scanning for faces and places? if yes, and the import is not making any progress at all, I'd disable thes options in the Aperture preferences for the initial import. You can add these later for the projects where you want to use these features.
    Regards
    Léonie
