In Firefox 4 how can I cause the date on downloaded files to be the current date? (Some are and some are not. In FF3 the dates were ALWAYS the current ones.)
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I upgraded to Firefox 4 (beta)

Firefox 3.6.* and earlier set the downloaded file's modification time to the current time. In Firefox 4.0 the behavior has been changed, if a server returns a timestamp telling when the file was last modified (Last-Modified header), it is used instead.
You can revert to the previous behaviour by using the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/93121/ Download Timestamp] add-on.

  • I recently downloaded 2 movies in iTunes on my windows PC and movies will not play, they will open up to the main menu, mouse overs work as well as extra features.  However the main movies will not let you play.

    I recently downloaded 2 movies in iTunes on my windows PC and movies will not play, they will open up to the main menu, mouse overs work as well as extra features.  However the main movies will not let you play. On mouse over in itunes the 'play' buttion is not enabled, yet is however enabled on previously downloaded movies.

    For me I have follow several of the help articles. When I play the movie in iTunes the screen is black with no audio, the timer status says it is playing (although it does not work all the time). I am able to play and have audio on the extras. I tried to use just QuickTime to play the movie and that as well does not work. I have started iTunes in safe mode and when the movie would begin to play, iTunes crashes and I have to restart. I have tried fresh clean installs of iTunes as well as QuickTime with no luck.
    It looks to be a QuickTime problem however I cant verify that. Any help would be great.

  • How can another user on my system share their document if they cannot access a public drop box, do not have an email account setup on the system and we don't want to use iwork?

    Please help. My DS created a document under his login on my PowerBook and now, I cannot seem to access it. He doesn't have an email account of his own, I can't seem to save it as a public document in a drop box like I can from my own login and we do not want to use iwork. Is there a way to save it so that I can access it from my login to email to his teacher. I don't want to have to retype it into Pages under my login.

    Save the document from his account to an external drive or thumb drive.
    Set the permissions (using Finder > Get Info) for "Everyone" to Read and Write.
    Your DS will likely be the owner of the file, so you may need his login password to change the permissions.

  • How can I make sure that a downloaded file goes to the left of the desktop

    Hi all,
    This may be a stupid question but I havent found the answer after much searching. Basically I like to have my dock on the right. And because of that, I life to have all the icons on my dekstop on the left. No problem so far. I managed to move the HD icons by making aliases and unticking the keep arranged option. So now all my desktop icons are on the left exactly where I want them to be. However when I download a file, that file shows up on the right of the desktop! I would really like it to just fall in line with the other icons, i.e. on the left.
    You may think im being picky but the thing is, I download a lot of files, and what ends up happening is I get a column of files on the right, very close to the dock (so close in fact that their names are hidden by it). So it is quite annoying.
    I would appreciate any help.

    Hi kakeez,
    If I were you, I'd create a folder named "Recent Downloads", place it on the left on my desktop, and set my browser's preferences to
    "*Save downloaded files to:*" this folder.
    Note that you can also play with the Finder's View Options (command+J) so that size of the icons combined with label position (bottom or right) make it look good and handy with the dock on the right.
    That's what I do myself. I use icon size 40 and text size 11pt, with the label on the right.
    With the "Snap to Grid" option checked, it all fits beautifully with my Dock on the right of my screen.
    Tip:
    One of the known factors of slowing down Mac OS X, is to have a lot of icons (no matter which) on the desktop.
    So if you don't care about a beautiful wallpaper, free of cluttering icons all over it,
    at least consider this slowing down aspect:
    ~ it is much better to create folders within the Documents, Pictures, Movies folders, or also at the top level of Macintosh HD or each User's,
    and organize your work that way, so you can keep as few icons as possible on the Desktop.

  • Whenever I change from My Music to iTunes Store and then back to My Music, it sends me to the top of My Music instead of where I was when i switched.  How can I get it to return to where I was when I switch out of and back into My Music?

    Whenever I switch from My Music to iTunes Store and then back to My Music, it sends me to the top of My Music instead of where I was when I switched.  How can I get it to return to where I was when I switch out of and back into My Music instead of going back to the top?

    Firefox will reload a page and reposition at the top if the copy in the cache has expired. However, that shouldn't happen right away.
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

  • How can I force Time Machine to make a complete backup of my Hard Drive.  I just installed a new external drive for Backup since my previous one failed.  Now when I back up, Time Machine only backs up my data folder and the Users folder.

    How can I force Time Machine to make a complete backup of my Hard Drive.  I just installed a new external drive for Backup since my previous one failed.  Now when I back up, Time Machine only backs up my data folder and the Users folder.
    When I start a backup. Time Machine says "Oldest Backup: None; Latest Backup: None", so it seems like it should do a complete backup, but it only does a partial. 

    Hi I'd like to jump in here. Your app showed me this:
    Time Machine:
              Skip System Files: NO
              Mobile backups: OFF
              Auto backup: YES
              Volumes being backed up:
                        Macintosh HD: Disk size: 749.3 GB Disk used: 453.81 GB
              Destinations:
                        Plastic Wrapper [Local] (Last used)
                        Total size: 999.86 GB
                        Total number of backups: 64

                        Last backup: 2013-11-17 01:40:47 +0000
                        Size of backup disk: Too small
                                  Backup size 999.86 GB < (Disk used 453.81 GB X 3)
              Time Machine details may not be accurate.
              All volumes being backed up may not be listed.
              /sbin excluded from backup!
              /usr excluded from backup!
              /System excluded from backup!
              /bin excluded from backup!
              /private excluded from backup!
              /Library excluded from backup!
              /Applications excluded from backup!
    Aside from the size of my backup drive, which I will increase at some point, I'd really like to have time machine backing up all system folders, especially Applications. How to I reset this hidden exclusions?
    Thanks,

  • I bought Numbers because my Excel files would not work with Mavericks. How can I import a non-functioning Excel file into numbers? (As of now, the file NAME transfers but data is not.) but

    I bought Numbers because my Excel files would not work with Mavericks. How can I import a non-functioning Excel file into numbers? (As of now, the file NAME transfers but data does not.)

    HI Dave,
    I'm surprised you get no message when you attempt opening the Excel document in Numbers.
    I'm assuming Numbers 3.1, since you are running Mavericks.
    Does the Numbers file that opens show any content?
    Does it contain a table?
    How large?
    Does it contain more than one tab (indicating more than one sheet)?
    Do those other tabs contain a table?
    Have you checked those tables for data content?
    There have been cases in the past of imported documents opening with white text on a white background, giving the appearance of containing nothing. Check for this by selecting a block of cells, then applying a Fill colour or a Text colour using the Format button (paintbrush).
    I'd also suggest attempting to open the Excel files using LibreOffice, which can be downloaded from the linked website.
    Regards,
    Barry

    i have a htc wildfire, and if i try to install firefox from android market place it says that my device is not compatible with firefox. how can i install it ?

    According to a random website... the HTC Wildfire S uses a Qualcomm MSM7225 processor. This processor unfortunately does not support the full ARM version 7 instruction set, so Firefox cannot run on it.

  • How can I remove my company's iCloud Contacts account from a former employee's iPhone and have the current information removed as well?

    How can I remove my company’s iCloud Contacts account from a former employee's iPhone and have the current information removed from their iPhone at the same time as well? Will just changing the iCloud password be enough? Our company shares an iCloud account for convenience but when someone leaves we don't want the information to stay on their iPhone.

    Changing the password would only block them from accessing the iCloud information.  They would still have access to the local copy on thier phone.  To delete the local information, you would need to go to Settings>iCloud on the phone, tap Delete Account, then choose Delete from My iPhone.  (This only deletes the iCloud account and data from the phone, not from iCloud.)  This, obviously, must be done during the exit process as it requires access to the phone.

  • In iWS 4-6, how can I cause a user to re-login after 30 minutes of idle time?

    We are using NSE 3.x as well as iWS 4, and 6 for several websites. They all use Directory services and SSL. I want to be able to force the user to re-login into the site after a specified amount of idle. Also, if possible, I would like the user to be able to log (him/her)self out at any point without closing the browser. How can this be done?
    Thanks in advance,
    scott

    Hello,
    You didn't mention on which platform you are running the iplanet web server. I assume that you are running iWS on (UNIX/LINUX) platform.
    you need to set the CGIStubIdleTimeout directive for the required time to logoff the user idle for seconds, which causes the server to kill any CGIStub processes that have
    been idle for the number of seconds set by this directive. Once the number of
    processes is at MinCGIStubs it does not kill any more processes. The default is 45.
    CGIExpirationTimeout limits the maximum time in seconds that CGI processes
    can run.
    Thanks

  • How can I cause HP Mobile Printing print jobs to default to duplex printing?

    I purchased an HP Officejet Pro 8620 a few days ago--for use with my Windows 7 PCs. I want all print jobs to default to two-sided (i.e., duplex) printing.
    I used Windows' Devices and Printers to access the printer's preferences. I selected "Two-sided (Duplex) Printing" as the Printing Shortcut. This causes all print jobs from Windows to default to two-sided printing.
    (Side-point: I notice that all of the printing shortcuts have padlocks on them; if I change any of the properties, a new entry ("User Specified Print Settings") is created; I press the Cancel button to avoid creating the new entry.)
    Then I opened a 10-page PDF on an Android device and printed it using HP Mobile Printing (i.e., the HP Print Service Plugin on my Android device). The plugin interface has limited print options; duplex isn't one of them. The printer did not print the PDF duplexed!
    How can I cause *all* print jobs (including those from HP Mobile Printing) to default to duplex printing?

    Hi,
    There are several different printing solutions available for Android, such as HP's built-in print solution for Android, the HP ePrint mobile app, HP's built-in print solution for Android, etc..
    As much as I aware, none will allow setting duplex printing as default, still.. mobile printing is more limited than a standard PC..
    The HP plugin allow printing to a printer connected to the same local network from several apps which support the plugin, its features are limited as included in my previous link.
    The HP ePrint mobie app allow printing to both a printer connected to the same network or via the cloud using the HP ePrint service to print even when the Android device is not connected to the same network as the printer.
    As well there is a new 3rd party service, the Mopria Print Service which allow printing from specific apps through the local network, it should be quite similar to HP's built-in print solution for Android
    The following document list different printing solutions available for Android and can be viewed as a reference:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03679829&tmp_task=useCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=e...
    The following document also list different prinitng solutions for Apple or Android devices and include a description of any of the options I included above:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03722645&tmp_task=setupCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&lc...
    I surely do not mean to confuse you, but would like to provide you any of the options (Yes, I know, it is quite a confusing field..) and worth trying if it may allow changing the default settings, I personally not aware so it worth trying..
    Hope that helps,
