Why does my history only record my last session,It stopped recording all of my history a few days ago.

Starting a few days ago my history only records my last browsing session.In other words it only records today's history.I am doing a research project and need all of my history.I uninstalled Firefox and loaded it again last night.When I checked today,yesterdays history is not there.So my history feature does not work,how do I restore this feature so that all of my history is recorded.I went into the settings and made sure that it is set to record all of my browsing history.The setting is correct.Would it be possible that I have a virus that is preventing this?
I would like to keep Firefox but if this cannot be fixed I will have to install another browser and I would not like to do this as I have been a Firefox user since 2005.

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in (permanent) Private Browsing mode and that you keep the history.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Private+Browsing
*Tools > Options > Privacy: Use custom settings for history
*Deselect: [ ] "Always use private browsing mode"
In case you are using "Clear history when Firefox closes":
*do not clear the "Browsing History"
*Tools > Options > Privacy: History: [X] Clear history when Firefox closes > Settings

Why does my ipod only show an apple and wont start up

Why does my Ipod only show an apple and wont do anything else> And holding down the two buttons has done nothing!

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Put in more RAM. Visit OWC, DataMem, or Crucial.com to purchase memory for your model. You computer would have more memory had you put more in a long time ago.

Why does my iPad only receive some of my waitrose e mails?

Why does my iPad only receive some of my waitrose.com e mails?

The camera kit will only see photos that follow a very strict naming convention. There has to be a folder named DCIM, and within that the file names of the photos have to be exactly 8 characters...DSC_3584 for example.
It also will not see SDXC cards unless they have been reformatted.
If those phones don't use the right naming convention the iPad kit simply won't see it.

Why does my computer display a spring coloured wheel that stops me from doing anything

Why does my computer display a spinning coloured wheel that stops me from doing anything, the only way to get rid is to switch off and reload...

These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Step 1
For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
          SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
          View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes.)
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the BOOT_TIME log message that corresponds to the last boot time when you had the problem. Now clear the search box to reveal all messages. Select the ones logged before the boot, during the time something abnormal was happening. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
For example, if the system was unresponsive or was failing to shut down for three minutes before you forced a restart, post the messages timestamped within three minutes before the boot time, not after. Please include the BOOT_TIME message at the end of the log extract—not at the beginning.
If there are long runs of repeated messages, please post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
Step 2
In the Console window, select
          DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ System Diagnostic Reports
(not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
          View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of reports. A crash report has a name that begins with the name of the crashed process and ends in ".crash". A panic report has a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends in ".panic". A shutdown stall report has a name that ends in ".shutdownstall". Select the most recent of each, if any. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot. It's possible that none of these reports exists.
I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash or panic, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

Few days ago my Firefox work properly & perfect. After the last update I miss my history and convinient addons. Please HELP : (

Hi,
Few days ago Mozila stop work (I don't remember before or after last update) and ask me something. I answered responsibly, but the result is a hilarious and tragic, as follow:
1/ No bookmarks: They are very important for me because I prepare them from years. I often mark the important sites with "CTRL+D" and by inserting few key words.
2/ No history
3/ Under the tabs, on left side, there was 2 arrows in circle: TO Left and TO Right. With them was very comfortably to navigate. Now there is only 1 arrow: TO LEFT
4/ Under the tabs, on right side is field "Search using Firefox Add-ons". Few days ago was very useful to write some word and Mozilla automatically search for sites that meet the written words by GOOGLE. Now this feature is gone.
Are they any opportunity to restore my previous settings ?
Thank you for cooperation !
Best regards,
Rumen Ivanov

Hello,
Firefox automatically creates backups of your bookmarks, which can be helpful if your bookmarks are lost or missing. To recover them, follow the instructions below.
#Use <u>one</u> of these methods to open the Bookmarks Library window:
#*Click the ''[[Display the Firefox button menu instead of the menu toolbar|Firefox button]]'' to open the menu and click on ''Bookmarks''.
#*Click the ''Bookmarks'' menu and click on ''Show All Bookmarks''.
# At the top of the Library window, click the "Import and Backup" menu and select Restore.
# Click the date of the bookmark backup you want to recover.
# In the new window that appears, click OK.
# Your bookmarks from the selected date should now be restored.
For more information, see the [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]] article. For other solutions, see the [[Recover lost or missing Bookmarks]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

Why does ESC work to exit some full screen apps but not all?

Example, while in full screen if I am in the web browser(I use firefox) clicking esc doesn't exit full screen, but when I am in photo booth esc works just fine. I noticed it with a few apps, sometimes it works and other times you have to go and click the exit option in the top right corner. I'm new to mac, this is my first mac and I only got it a few days ago so I'm quite uneducated with the software.

I found another thread that helped. I switched to 3-finger swipe then back to 4-finger, however everything froze and I lost my curser. I actually had to force quit the Finder twice before it took effect. Now it works. That thread was: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3191453?start=0&tstart=0

I have the "never remember my history" selected in options, yet when I close Firefox and reopen, it goes directly to my hotmail inbox. This just started a few days ago, and it's a security hassel. What can I do?

The only way I can clear it is to actually go in and manually delete my history. Help, please! Before a few days ago, my email session would only stay active as long as I didn't close the browser. I believe this applies to all sites requiring a password.

I wonder whether Firefox is not really shutting down completely. Would you mind checking the Task Manager?
After closing Firefox, press Ctrl+Shift+Esc and view the Applications tab. Firefox should disappear.
Then check the Processes tab. Click the button to show processes from all users, and click the Image Name column heading to alphabetize for easier visual scanning. firefox.exe should close within 15 seconds, after all file maintenance is completed. If it is not closing, then some other process may be keeping it running, preventing your session from ending.
If the session is ending, and your "When Firefox starts" is not set to "Show my windows and tabs from last time", the two normal ways you could be logged back in automatically are cookies and saved passwords.
In case an add-on is responsible, you could try starting in Firefox's Safe Mode with add-ons disabled and see whether Firefox still remembers your session.
First, make a backup of your profile folder for safekeeping. To back up Firefox, see [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information].
Next, see [http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode]. Be careful not to "reset" anything permanently if you didn't back up.
Does that change anything?

The latest automatic update was accompanied by "You should update Adobe Flash Player right now". Having done this a few days ago a new Firefox update arrived with the same "request". Why and what do I need to do to stop this?

The latest automatic update (in March) was accompanied by "You should update Adobe Flash Player right now". Having done this a few days ago a new Firefox update arrived (today 7. March) with the same "request". Why does this happen and what can I do to stop it? Firefox 3.6.15 and Adobe flash player 10.1.82.76 are currently installed.

Shockwave Flash 10.1 r82 is not the latest version of Flash. '''r152''' is the latest.

hey guys, iv recently changed over from the 4 to the 5 and i have lost my 5. Luckily a few days ago i downloaded find my iPhone but when i log in it tracks my old phone and not the new one. I have logged in so i dont know why it wont connect. I'm really upset about lossing it, if anyone one knows how to fix the problem or another way of tracking my phone that would be great.

The iphone 5 can only be located if connected to a data or mobile network. If in Airplane mode or switched off, it can't be found.

iCloud: Troubleshooting the Find My iPhone app

Hi, my phone was stolen a few days ago and I was waiting for it to come online to track the last known location where it was turned on. Now that my phone has been locked but i cant seem to find the last location it was online. I need the last location

Hi, my phone was stolen a few days ago and just a few days ago the phone was online and it automatically locked itself since I've put it under lost mode and the thief probably switched off the phone immediately so that I cant locate it. Is it possible for me to have the last known location where he/she turned on the phone so that I can track it down from the last location? Thank you

Correct.
The only way to locate/disable/erase any lost/stolen iPhone/iPod Touch is through Find My Phone or a similar app. However, this requires that Find My Phone be setup/activated, on your phone, before it was lost/stolen. You would then login at iCloud.com & try to locate it. This requires the phone be turned on & have an Internet connection. There is no other way to locate a lost/stolen iPhone. Apple can't/won't help you, nor will your carrier. Report the loss to the Police, your carrier & Insurance company. Change all of your passwords.
If your carrier offers Blacklisting & they Blacklist the phone, it will be unusable as a phone.
If locked with a passcode, and running iOS 7.0, then phone cannot be activated or the passcode removed without knowing your Apple iD/Password. It will be nothing but a useless paperweight.
If not running iOS 7.0, the phone can be forced into recovery mode & restored.

My iPhone was stolen a few days ago. It appears to be offline on the Find My iPhone app. If the person who has it turns it on only for a brief moment and then turns it off immediately, will the location still be found? Once it returns to being offline will the location still be sent to me? And also, how can I retrieve my pictures from my iCloud?

Anything is possible.
