  Downloaded the latest Windows 7 update yesterday, November 3, 2009 and lost all my "Favorites" in MSN. Also, when I do a reboot, the Verizon FIOS Media Manager starts. Only the downloaded last update - has nothing else. Please notify

  Yes I have FIOS Media Manager installed, but I've done since the start of Windows 7.  For the first week or so it does not start on my download restarts.  It started with this Nov 3 update from Microsoft.  I went to downloads and there were two of them; Update for Internet Explorer 8 for x 64 based and updated Windows Defender definition.

  After you install these two updates on restart FIOS M.M. was live at startup and my favorite MSN have disappeared.  I disabled FIOS M.M., but somehow, he has been activated with this download.  I went on my drive external backup and recovered the Favorites but am always intrigued by this phenomenon and how it changed my registry.

• Updated to iOS 9.3.4 and lost all my favorites across all my devices, iPhone and iPad

  The iOS to day of the week on my iPad Air last and he immediately lost all my favorites.  I have 2 other devices on my account an iPhone 5 and an older iPad.  These devices updated afterwards and had bookmarks until updates occurred.  Later devices only updated when I went to look at the bookmarks they appeared for a few seconds and they disappeared.  All devices have no bookmarks.  Cannot find information on this question - anyone have this problem?

  Hi DannoLaLa,

  Thanks for checking out the communities Support from Apple! I understand that you are having problems with Safari bookmarks that were deleted on your devices. All the time, I use bookmarks for quick access to my frequently visited websites so I can understand wanting to make sure that you have access to your. I am pleased to provide you with advice for you.

  I recommend you take a look at the info in the article below. Specifically, the following information:

  If you go to a bookmark that you deleted in the last 30 days, you can recover it from iCloud.com. Just click settings and under Advanced Options, click on restore bookmarks.

  Even if bookmarks have been deleted accidentally, you should be able to recover them with these steps.

• updated to 37.0.2 - and appears all my favorites have been deleted (Nothing in the toolbar now)

  Hello:

  I upgraded to 37.0.2 today. Fx reboot, I can't see any bookmarks. NO what so ever.
  My bookmarks bar was full.

  So I open the bookmarks in the menu bar top (view all bookmarks] and none show there either.)
  The bar watch bookmarks but not favourites. everything gone?

  Please see screenshot

  Thank you scribe_UK

  (1) I did as you suggested:
  First of all open the bookmarks > show all bookmarks > import and backup > restore and see if you have a backup there.

  (2) all the backups of my favorites are there. My Favorites get saved at shutdown fx, which i usually do daily or every 2 days. Then I copied the latest file on my hard drive. Then I restored it. Just in case something goes wrong.

  (3) it is the good news. The bad news
  > restoring crashed 3 times before it completely restored. When I say crashed... started giving errors js... so I waited and let the script raather than to stop it. After about an hour and a bit it finally done.
  > all bookmarks lost all their icons. So I loaded the fav icon reloader Add on. And it was refreshing icons. A took about 2 hours to refresh.

  so I'm now sorted from the point of view of bookmarks. But the upgrade to Fx always makes me nervous when things like this happen. Not pretty.

  Secondly, since the upgrade, Fx went back slow slow speed that it worked before as I have created a new installation new Yosemite as 5 cool months and there's profile. If something tells me the upgrade of fx is only as a last resort. Like I slow FX now, unless I want to spend even more time, you re-create the Fx profile.

  Thanks for your help.

• I have I have been refreshing to Firefox and lost all my favorites!

  I went through the troubleshooting and monitoring instructions and my favorites are gone. read a few articles about the recovery, but was a bit hesitant to follow through when he said that I had 14 files, when I know I have a lot more.

  Find the folder of old data of Firefox on the desktop. Make a copy of it, just in case you get stuck or need to start. But scrupulously every step:

  • Backup and restore Firefox profiles information

  For just the bookmarks:

  • Restore backup bookmarks or move them to another computer

• My computer crashed and it restarted I asked me to refresh Firefox. I have now lost all my favorites etc. There is no 'old Firefox data' folder - help!

  My computer crashed (blue screen) and when it restarted a box came asking me to update Firefox. I clicked on OK (thought he was just trying to restore the session) and I have now lost all my favorites, passwords registered etc. There is no 'old Firefox data' folder anywhere on my system - help! is there a way I can get it all back without doing a system restore? I am running Windows 7.

  Hi, you can try it for only bookmarks: first open the bookmarks > show all bookmarks > import and backup > restore and see if you have a backup there.

  If not and the other favorites, please see.

  • Profiles of boards - where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
  • Recovery of data from an old profile.

  If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.

• Unable to make a selection in the context of important updates. Grayed. Open as administrator and not user account can not change to receive automatic updates

  Sign on the user account as an administrator, but cannot change the automatic updates.

  Under updates important area is grayed out and cannot select to change

  Hello Bill,

  Thank you for visiting Microsoft Community.

  As I understood it, you experience the problem, you cannot change the automatic updates even if you are logged on as an administrator user account. The option is grayed out on the system.

  Certainly, I understand your concern.

  I would suggest trying the following steps and check if that helps.

  1. Open the editor of the register of the command RUN by typing "regedit" and click OK.
  2. In the tree on the left, open following files-online HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate.
  3. Remove the automatic "Update" folder This will remove all previous settings for automatic update.
  4. Open the automatic update of the control panel and option as usual.
  5. If automatic update is always gray, type the command "gpupdate/force" RUN and click OK or restart the operating system.

  Note: This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

• I can't change the date & time to receive automatic updates of Windows XP - help!

  What happens when you try to do?

• Microsoft Management Console error: this function is not supported on this system. Also noticed that the automatic updates did not install it and returned error 80070005.

  Original title: Microsoft Management Console this feature only is not supported on this system

  I am running Vista 32 bit Business since an administrator account.

  Recently, I noticed that the automatic updates did not install it and returned error 80070005.   After investigation, I found that I could not open mmc at all and always get the message "this function no is not supported on this system.  No major changes have been made to the configuration to trigger it and I can't watch the event log because it is in the MMC.
  I have studied this question in line and tool the following actions, which none worked:
  carried out a complete antivirus scan (I use Commodo internet security)
  created another account administrator
  has run SFC (no problem)
  has run the registry cleaner (no problem)
  has run msconfig.exe and disabled all the startup process
  updated windows right click and run as administrator
  Started in safe mode and tried all above
  After that, I don't know where to go... it doesn't seem to be a download for Windows vista to reinstall mmc.
  I have about 50 updates critical, sitting in my windows update that can not install because of this problem.  Can anyone help?

  Hello Helpmehelpme,

  First, I would check since it is professional Vista was that computer on a field of work or it was already on an area of work? There may be group policies that are in place that prevent to run MMC.

  When did start to happening? Is there anything new on the system which has been introduced into the environment (software, hardware)?

  A few things you could try...

  • Using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, and then double-click Eula.exe and accept the license agreement
  • You can open Adobe Reader by itself?  If so, try to disable the Protected Mode [Edit |] Preferences | (Improved) security].
  • If Reader opens in itself, try to disable the Safe_mode in the registry; Download, unzip, then run the attached registry script
  • It might even be a malware problem; See http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/reader-core-dll-error.html
