Um... Mozilla help?
« on: May 31, 2005, 09:52:42 pm »
Ok, was having problems dl'ing a file to get on Mirror Mirror... so I closed all the Mozilla windows that were open...

I went to re-open it... and it asked me for a user profile.... I tried to use the one there and it said it was already in use and didn't open...

So I made a new profile (didn't delete the old one) and Mozilla started right up...

Problem is ALL my book marks, cookies, and saved pw's are gone.

Anyone know how I can get back to the other profile?

Have you tried rebooting?

Ok, problem solved... needed to run a program to change it back... thankfully it was in the Mozilla help pages.

yeah sometimes mozilla bugs out like that. When it asks you for a new profile I usually reboot... but sometimes i make a new one and delete it on the next reboot.
