A bit of Mac advice would be very welcome.

Sometime today, Firefox did an auto update on my Mac Pro 2009 Snow 10.6.8. After that, any reference to 1Password and all my settings disappeared. I can’t find the data file. In Apple Mail all my mailboxes also disappeared and I had to start Mail as if a new account from new. Once I entered the primary mail account all my emails were present, but not any other account. I also can’t use my kosher Adobe CS5 apps which fail with an Error code 131:4.

I have booted from the Snow DVD and run Disk Permissions twice.

Can anyone shed any light on what may have occurred and how to fix things? I have regular Time Machine backups. About 2 months ago I upgraded (and cloned) from HD to SSD’s using SuperDuper but that has been working flawlessly, so I don’t think that is the problem.

Any suggestions are very welcome. Thank you.

Have you gotten anywhere with this? My only suggestion is to try DiskWarrior. It sounds like something has gone quite wrong.

Thank Joe for your reply. It certainly seems as if FF update 33 broke 1Password, so a warning there for others. I got no response from their forums, surprisingly. I reverted to FF v32 from Time Machine and cloned my 1Password settings from my MacBook Pro running Mavericks and v4 1Password. That in itself was not straight forward. Agile were very helpful. I had to uninstall CS5 and re-install and so far so good thank you.

It seems as though when I ran Disk Utilities and check / repair disk and then permissions, that caused a lot more problems than it solved. Now in Apple Mail, email addresses do not auto type - another major pain.

Not sure why there were so many errors on my boot SSD. I cloned my old HDD using SuperDuper and it went swimmingly and I’m using decent Samsung Pro 840 drives too.

The Adobe 131:4 error can be a missing file or a serial problem, so again, not sure why that sprang up. And Adobe site support send you round in a circle - anything but send them an email.

Thanks sincerely Joe for your reply on a Sunday - much appreciated.
