Windows 8 critical update crashed lost browser and all history and tabs how do i get old browser

Install Windows 8 Critical update; computer crashed and lost everything; Microsoft OS will not let me back into programs, keeps blocking me and gives me a temp password so I can still use PC. Had to reinstall FIREFOX, can't recover old browser and my very important tab. I can't get to backup file and Microsoft is unable to fix the problem, so I am starting from scratch. Tried to use Profile information but it contains only my current profile.
Hope you can help.

If you do not have the original profile folder and its contents, or some backup of that; there is not anything we can do to help.
*Do you have any forms of backup at all ?
*Did you sync with another device ?
I am assuming the original hard drive has been reformatted, or is totally unusable.

HT4059 After updating iBooks on my iPad all my PDFs disappeared how do I get them back? I reinstalled the app again and they showed up and thn they disappeared, what is going on?

After updating iBooks on my iPad all my PDFs disappeared how do I get them back? I reinstalled the app again and they showed up and thn they disappeared, what is going on?

By reinstalling do you mean that you deleted the app and redownloaded it ? Deleting an app will remove the app and its contents. Do you have copies of the PDFs in the Books part of your computer's iTunes library so that you can sync them back ?

Lost all my grouped tabs how do I get them back pls

One minute all my tabs and group tabs were there and the next minute FFox wasn't running. I opened it again and just had the one tab open and the FFox start page. I went to restore the previous session and nothing happened. Pls can you tell me how I can get all my tabs back pls?

How did it get disabled?
Are these apps that you paid for or your school paid for? If they are yours make sure you have entered your AppleID in Settings > iTunes & App Store and download them again. You don't have to pay again.

No Internet Connectivity Following Windows 7 Critical Update August 19th 20112

I experienced a Windows 7 automatic update (Downloaded and installed August 18th 2012 - evening) and when I attempted to access the internet on August 19th, I had no connectivity. Issue is not with wifi or service provider since another laptop functions
normally. I went to system restore as of 15th August and was able to access as normal. But upon closing down the session, the absence of the updates triggers another Windows 7 update automatic install and the exact symptoms return upon restart. Any idea
what the critical updates were for this period and which of them would cause this failure? Are there clear instructions available for starting from an acceptable state (August 15th) and only adding the updates that are compatible? What are the implications
of not installing a Windows 7 critical update? What resident programs are likely sources of incompatibility. I have the usual assortment of annoying Dell crap on my system and I use Mcafee antivirus (which is current and has completed a scan finding
nothing since this problem) but not a whole lot of other software that I can imagine would cause a conflict.

You're welcome!
If you find the one that's causing the problem, Google the KB number and see if anyone else has had a problem with it, and what they did to fix it. Odds are, missing one update is not going to put your system at serious risk.
I would imagine that if there are enough logged complaints about an update, there would be an updated update (like that :-)? ) some time in the future. It has happened before. I wouldn't put too much stock in Microsoft monitoring these forums closely, but
I'm sure they must have something in place alerting them of a mass of particular problem posts.
I can't comment on the "Jumpstart wireless filter adapter" setting since I don't have that option on my laptop's wireless adaptor properties.

Did you have the phone set to backup things to the One Drive on Microsoft servers?

If the music was purchased from iTunes you can redownload it for free (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519). If not you will either have to re-import all your music to rebuild your library, or purchase 3rd party software that can transfer it from your phone to iTunes such as Touch Copy.

Did you backup the iPad first? If you did - restore from the backup in order to restore the photos in the Saved Album on your iPad. If the photos were synced to the iPad, then sync them back again via iTunes.
How to backup and restore from a backup
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
If you did backup first, you will be restoring your most recent backup and you should be OK. But know that when you restore from a backup, you restore everything that is in that backup onto the iPad .... All documents, device settings, all data and so on. You cannot just select photos to restore to the iPad. It's all or nothing.

Hi,
The simplest solution would to restore from your back up - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4112
If you do not have a back, you can select first track on list in song view, from menu > edit > select all. Next ctrl+click and select download from pop up. You may wish to do this in small batches as it will take some time to download.

ok   here's more mystery. i just uninstalled and reinstalled flash player using the adobe uninstaller and rebooting after each step. aqlso installed latest java. i started looking at videos and here are the ones that worked: you tube
                                                                                       imdb

                                  here are the ones that didn't work:    yahoo
                                                                                       msn
                                                                                       reuters
                                here are the ones that partially worked: the blaze (works on videos that originate from you tube, but not from news stories)
                                                                                          bing (work on videos from their video section - entertainment type, but not from news videos)
the common thing here seems to be that news type videos crash and entertainment type don't. also videos seem more likely to crash on internet portals like yahoo

I lost all of my information updating to iOS 6 on my IPhone 4. How do I get it back?

I lost all of my information updating to iOS 6 on my IPhone 4. How do I get it back?

As Lawrence Finch suggests you can recover more recent information if you have a more recent iCloud backup.
To avoid this problem in the future you should check the iTunes settings when your phone is connected. Make sure iTunes is not set to sync automatically when your iPhone is connected. Another step to take is to give your new iPhone a unique name that is different from your old iPhone. Finally, the best way to charge an iPhone is to use the charger that came with the iPhone and plug that into a good wall outlet.

Strangely enough, putting my laptop into Hibernate mode solved the problem. It didn't even take a reboot.

Correct. When you update via iTunes all synced media that is not in your iTunes library will be lost.
As IO said before:
You can redownload most iTunes pruchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
I do not think it included audio books.

TS1363 I recently updated my iphone overnight and today I can't get it to come on, I've tried the restore and nothing works. I've tried syncing with 3 different computers and nothing works. I'm getting the black screen, white apple and a line under that

I updated my phone overnight and now I can't get it to come on. I've tried everything, I have a black screen, white apple and a mine below that looks like it's trying to load but it has stopped. HELP!

You're not alone. I am having similar problems with my Ipod 5th gen 30gb.
When I connect it to my laptop (Vista - basic) it is not recognised by itunes. Itunes simply locks up.
So far I have tried the following to no avail:
Checked my pc's device manager - it recognises the device and says it is functioning properly.
Checked the drivers to make sure they are upt to date.
Uninstalled & reinstalled a previous version of itunes (as it worked fine before the latest release).
Reinstalled the latest itunes.
Reset the ipod.
Put the ipod into disk mode and reconnected to itunes.
Have tried to use the windows tool to scan and fix any bad sectors but it fails to complete a scan without locking that up as well.
Placed into disk mode when fully charged and then allowed the battery to drain completely. Then reconnected ipod (in disk mode)and it still is not recognised and locks up itunes.
At this point I dont really want to part with another $300 odd dollars for a new one.
