Will I loose IE8 on my computer if I download foxfire to my PC?

I still need Ie8 to run some of my childs home school websites. Still others will not pull up on IE8 or say they will not function properly and to update to a current browser............Will I loose IE8 if I download foxfire? Will I still be able to make hughesnet what appears first on my compuer (which has my bookmarks on it) when my computer boots up? I use Windows xp and have IE8 as my curent browser - IE9 does not support xp anymore.......what to do for the programs that say update browser to use this site? What to do for what I still need on IE8? Sorry but I am not a computper guru...............help?

Firefox will run independently of IE.
You have the choice as to whether you want links in other applications to open in IE or in Firefox: this is determined by which one you set as your "default browser." Either way you go, that setting is easy to switch later.

    No you will not lose any data. However a pop up will come up telling you if you want to sync with this computer, and that if you do, that it will erase the data. Just click "No" and you can still update your phone. I've done this a few times.

    If you upgrade from 10.6 to 10.7/10.8 yes there is a risk you can lose your files if something goes wrong requiring a erase and install to fix it.
    Your PPC programs will not work in 10.7/10.8
    Mac's earlier than a Early 2011 machine shouldn't really upgrade to 10.7/10.8 due to slow performance issues.
    If you Software Update from say 10.6.3 to 10.6.8, there is less risk, but possible.
    You should make backups regardless, a 10.6 clone and extra copies of files on a external drive.

    will i loose all my music and pictures and apps if i use a different computer?

    In order to use a different computer than what the device was originally synced with, you would need to use a 3rd party application to back the information up, prior to syncing with iTunes.
    If you try to sync on a different computer than usual, you will get a message stating that it will wipe all data out and start from scratch... and it will erase everything.

  • Computer Crash - If I Hook Up My IPOD again, will I loose all my songs?

    My computer just crashed, and I lost all my documents in a user file, and all my songs on Itunes. If I hook up my Ipod to Itunes again, will I loose all my songs, or the songs stay in the Ipod?

    You can a keyboard command to prevent your iPod auto-syncing with iTunes. While connecting the iPod to the computer on Windows with iTunes 7 installed hold down the Control and Alt keys (or Shift + Ctrl keys in older versions). This will stop the iPod from auto-syncing with iTunes and the iPod will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 20 to 30 seconds depending on your computer: iTunes 7 Keyboard Shortcuts for Windows
    From here you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Also when using a lot of the utilities below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button: Managing content manually on iPod
    Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. If you have any iTMS purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. A paragraph on it has been added to this article: Transfer iTunes Store purchases using iPod
    The transfer of non iTMS content such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there is a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows. The procedure is a bit involved and was written long before iTunes 7 so it requires a little adaptation, also it won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
    If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. This is just a selection, you'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, they are generally quite straightforward. You can also read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    YamiPod Mac and Windows Versions
    iGadget Windows Only
    iPod Access Mac and Windows Versions
    PodUtil Mac and Windows Versions
    iPodCopy Mac and Windows Versions
    TuneJack Windows Only
    CopyPod Windows Only
    Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up in case you have problems again. External drives are comparatively inexpensive these days and you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

  • What all information will i loose if I sync iPhone with another computer?

    Hey,
    Just wanted to understand what all information will i loose if i sync my iphone with another computer?
    will i loose my contacts and messages?
    Thanks
    Cheers

    Syncing your iPhone with iTunes on another computer will not erase all data on your iPhone. SMS/MMS will not be touched, photos/video in your iPhone's Camera Roll, the same for notes, email accounts, and iPhone settings.
    In regards to iTunes content, an iPhone can be synced or manually managed with an iTunes library on a single computer only, and photos can be transferred from a single computer only. When transferring iTunes content and photos from another computer, all iTunes content and photos transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPhone first with a warning message provided indicating this will happen.
    You can sync contacts, calendar events, and Safari bookmarks with the supported applications on multiple computers.
    You can transfer iTunes content and photos from one computer along with syncing contacts, calendar events, and Safari bookmarks with the supported applications.
    When connecting your iPhone to iTunes on another computer, you will be provided a warning message that your iPhone has been synced with iTunes on another computer. If you don't select to transfer any iTunes content or photos from another computer, no iTunes content and photos that were transferred from a different computer will be erased from your iPhone. If you select to sync contacts, calendar events, and Safari bookmarks only with the supported applications on another computer, only this data will be touched on your iPhone.

  • Trying to get icloud, installed snow leopard, now it says I need OSX, but my processor isn't right for it. Is this possible? Do I need to buy a nw computer? will I loose all my mobile me storage?

    Trying to get icloud, installed snow leopard, now it says I need OSX, but my processor isn't right for it. Is this possible? Do I need to buy a nw computer? will I loose all my mobile me storage?

    You will lose the entire contents of your iDisk whether or not you migrate to MobileMe as there is no equivalent in iCloud and MobileMe will be terminated at the end of June. You will need to download any data which you don't have on your Mac already.
    Snow Leopard is not compliant with iCloud and most of the facilities will not work. You can migrate from MobileMe to iCloud at http://me.com/move even with Snow Leopard: when asked to confirm that your Mac is running Lion just lie and say 'yes'. Of course you won't be able to access iCloud directly from your Mac.
    If you have MobileMe mail set up to collect mail from external POP accounts you should cancel this before migrating, or you may find it still working in iCloud (where it isn't supposed to) and with no way of stopping it.
    This will be the situation with Snow Leopard when you have migrated:
    Your email, calendars, and 'Find my iPhone' will be migrated to iCloud. Contacts and Bookmarks cannot be migrated from a Snow Leopard Mac.
    Your iDisk, together with website hosting and Gallery, will continue to work as before until next June.
    Syncing of Dashboard Widgets, Dock Items and Keychains between Macs, and Mail Accounts, Mail Rules, System Preferences, Signatures & Smart Mailboxes between Macs & iOS devices, will cease altogether.
    You will be able to access email and calendars on the iCloud website at http://icloud.com provided your browser is reasonably up-to-date.
    You will not be able to sync contacts or bookmarks from a pre-Lion Mac.
    You will be able to enter the server settings for email manually in the Mail application and access your email.
    You will not be able to sync your calendars directly.
    Some people have been able to set up calendar syncing by using the method detailed here - this is an unsupported hack and may not be reliable, and may stop working at some future point.
    There appears to be no method of syncing contacts (though Address Book on a Mac can be synced with Google or Yahoo address books - I don't know how reliable this is).
    There are a couple of third-party solutions which may be of interest.
    BusyCal is an iCal-like calendar application with extra facilities: it can sync with the iCloud Calendar while running on Leopard, Snow Leopard or Lion. A single user licence (two machines allowed) is $49.99.
    Soho Organizer can sync Calendars and Contacts with iCloud on Leopard, Snow Leopard and Lion. A single user licence (multiple machines allowed) is $99.99.

  • HT1296 in trying to update my dad's iphone version, i connected it to my computer.  now i am getting the restore itunes symbol.  what do I do?  If I restore it, will he loose all of his contacts?

    in trying to update my dad's iphone version, i connected it to my computer.  now i am getting the restore itunes symbol.  what do I do?  If I restore it, will he loose all of his contacts?

    By the "restore iTunes symbol" do you mean a USB cable and the iTunes symbol? If so the device is in Recovery Mode and the device has already been erased and it needs to be Restored using iTunes. If your Dad had a backup you can Restore from backup after the iPhone is up and running. Follow the link for instructions > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    If this is not the case please post back and we'll try and help.

  • If I do a repair the windows small business server 2011 standard repair console, will I loose the user's and computer's that are currently setup on the server ?

     will I loose the user's and computer's that are currently setup on the server?

    Hi,
    Based on your description, I understand you want to repair SBS 2011 console (please refer to
    the TechNet article:
    Repair the Windows Small Business Server 2011 Standard Console). However, worry about losing users and groups that be created by Windows SBS Console. As far as I know, those will not lose.
    Since, when you create users and groups via SBS console, those are added to Activity Directory.
    The SBS console is a GUI component, which makes it easy to configure and manage your Windows SBS 2011 Standard network. When you repair the SBS console, this component will be affected.
    In view of your concerns, please back up before operation. It will help us to avoid some unexpected
    issue.
    Hope this helps.
    Best regards,
    Justin Gu

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.
