A bad synchronisation has replaced my profile with incorrect information. How can I get it back?
I turned on sync on my computer at home without realizing that I implement a sync account for my work computer. Both computers have _very_ different bookmarks and login/password data. Before her, I realized, my home computer profile has been replaced with the profile of my work. My bad for the backup does not my profile, but here I am. I will lose physical access to that computer for four months on 10/23, so I'll try to get back to the former State. How can I do this? I am wary to try a reset, see how I screwed up my system.
My original goal was to have two profiles on my work computer, one for home, for work, and the two synchronized according to the device name.
A big thank you to all those who can help.
Ben
Normally the data would be merged between connected devices.
You should be able to restore the bookmarks from a backup JSON (.json or tablet .jsonlz4) in the folder bookmarkbackups.
- Bookmarks > show all bookmarks > import and backup > restore > choose file
- http://KB.mozillazine.org/Backing_up_and_restoring_bookmarks_-_Firefox
- https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/restore-bookmarks-from-backup-or-move-them
If you have lost the password then try to see if you still the signons.sqlite (and key3db) in the Firefox profile folder to see if you can make Firefox reimport bookmarks from this file.
32 of Firefox and later versions store the passwords in the file logins.json in the profile folder and no longer use the file signons.sqlite.
If you have the file signons.sqlite which has been used in Firefox 31 and more, then you could try to recover the passwords stored in this file (you lose passwords saved in Firefox 32).
You can force Firefox to re-import the passwords in the file signons.sqlite and regenerate the logins.json file.
- reset the signon.importedFromSqlite pref on the topic: config page by default via the context menu
- Delete the logins.json file in the closed Firefox with Firefox profile folder
When you restart Firefox, then you should have the pref signon.importedFromSqlite with the value set to true and you should have the passwords into password manager, unless he could have errors.
You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder currently in use:
- Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory: see file (Linux: open the directory;) Mac: View in the Finder)

The bar (task line?) in the upper part of the return emails has disappeared. When I hit the reply to an e-mail message, the new e-mail arrives, but I can't send after typing because there is no command bar as there had always been? It was a bar, tab, the line (don't know what to call it) that had a button to send, spelling, attachment and I think another item.
Firefox send an e-mail, it's strictly a web browser.
If you use Firefox to access your e-mail, you use "webmail". You must seek assistance from your service provider or a forum for this service.

The address bar has disappeared from the top of any tab, I opened, so there is nowhere to enter a web address. Could I have accidentally made it happen? How can I get that back?
Just to be clear, it is not on the tab bar is? (It's the new style in Firefox 4 and 5).
To show or hide the toolbars, you can use the old view menu.
If you have the orange Firefox button, press the Alt key to temporarily show the classic menu bar.
Menu view > toolbars > check the Navigation bar
If you view the navigation toolbar, but it is incomplete or damaged, you can reset your toolbars.
Menu view > toolbars > customize
In the great dialog box with the icons, to the bottom, click on restore by default.
Does this help?

My lbp6000 has stopped working when I upgraded to osx 9 mavericks. How can I get it back?
Hi gkharris!
I know that this issue is frustrating. I'll be happy to help you.
When upgrading to new operating systems, we recommend that you uninstall and reinstall the drivers. Please uninstall the printer by following the instructions in the article:
Uninstalling the printer driver (CAPT V3.55)
After uninstalling the driver, please download the latest driver on the Canon USA site. Please click the link below:
http://USA.Canon.com/Cusa/support/consumer
Once you are on the site, enter your model number. Your operating system will be detected automatically. Click on the word 'Pilot', and then select The CAPT Printer Driver Ver.3.65 and save the file. Then, open it from the save location and install the driver package.
Finally, save the printer in the print queue by following the instructions in the following article:
Registration of the printer with USB (Mac OS X Lion) ( CAPT LBP Series Driver3.36)
* Although it shows OS X Lion, the instructions are the same.
I hope this information is useful for you. If you need assistance, please contact us at 1-800-OK-CANON (1-800-652-2666).

I lost the sound recorder. The program has disappeared. How can I get that back?
I lost the sound recorder. The program has disappeared. How can I get that back?
Hi dstaub53,
In "gone", I assume that you do not see the menu of all the Programs.Accessories? Try clicking on the Start button and typing sound (or tape recorder) in the search box. The sound recorder.exe file should then appear at the top of the search list.
Click or double-click the exe of tape recorder to open the sound recorder.
