When using the same Firefox profile in Ubuntu 12.04 and Windows 8.1, how can I keep autoscrolling enabled in Firefox for Linux?
I access the same Firefox profile in Ubuntu 12.04 and Windows 8.1 (Windows fast startup disabled). I have the newest version of Firefox (26.0) on each system.
Every time I launch Firefox in Ubuntu after using the profile in Windows, I notice that autoscrolling is disabled. So I have to manually enable it every time after using my profile in Windows.
Conversely, every time I launch Firefox in Windows after using the profile in Ubuntu, I'm asked whether I would like to set Firefox as my default browser. I choose "No", first making sure that there is no check mark next to "Always perform this check when starting Firefox". I have to do this every time after using my profile in Ubuntu, despite the fact that if I check my preferences in either OS, "Always check to see if Firefox is the default browser on startup" is not enabled. Note that Firefox is my default browser in Ubuntu but not in Windows, but I have no need for Firefox to check whether it's the default every time it starts in either OS.
I don't know whether these problems are related, but it seems likely that they are. Is there a way that I can keep these settings constant, so they don't reset every time I switch operating systems?
I'm sure that when I close the browser in either OS before switching to the other, the following two conditions are true in the Advanced tab of the Firefox Preferences menu:
1) "Use autoscrolling" is enabled (with a check mark)
2) "Always check to see if Firefox is the default browser on startup" is disabled (no check mark)
The autoscrolling feature allows you to scroll by holding down the middle mouse button and moving the mouse up and down. The extension you linked to, ScrollyFox, enables scrolling by clicking a button in the Firefox UI, which is quite a different feature. So unfortunately the problems still remain.

Can I use the same drive to backup with Time Machine and Windows Backup?
I've got a 1TB external hard drive that I'm currently using for Time Machine backups and also it stores about 300GBs of music. Can I partition the drive to add an NTFS formatted partition and use that partition with Vista's Backup/Restore feature? If so, how do I partition the drive? Forgive me, I'm a neophyte when it comes to Windows. Also, I don't want to lose the music files already saved on the Time Machine partition.
While you can add HFS+ volumes to an existing drive, adding NTFS requires taking chances: change to FAT and then convert to NTFS.
I'd invest in another backup. I don't even rely 100% on any one backup method; drive; let alone TimeMachine. A bootable backup should also be part of your strategy for OS X. So I would create a smallish 40GB emergency boot volume - for OS X use only.
For Vista, I use the built-in features of Ultimate/Business AND Prosoft Engineering DataBackup PC. Norton Ghost started out okay but gradually deteriorated, though their 2009 360 2.0 or something....
I would not want to use WinClone except as one-time 'snap shot' or emergency; useful when moving to a new larger hard drive, and if your Vista partition is small and not 100GB of files.
I'd look at 500GB+ drive to use solely for Vista backup and media files.

Can I use the same TB profile on my laptop and PC via Onedrive or iCloud? If so, how?
I know I can move the location of my TB profile and create new ones using Profile manager. I have done this using my Onedrive account and TB works fine. It would be very useful to be able to use the same Onedrive profile from two PCs but is this possible and how can I do it? Many thanks.
It is possible, but prone to failure.
You can not simultaneously share a profile
Network speed is critical. Thunderbird portable and a thumb drive would be a better solution. -
Can I use the same wall adapter to charge my ipad and my ipod
Can I use the same wall adapter to charge my ipad and my ipod touch
No offense, but that's nice. I heard I was wrong and that what I said didn't make sense, so I simplified it. If I'm wrong, fine, but you have no reason to be such a *****. You never explained why I was wrong and you were right, so how am I or anyone else suppose to know that for sure? Then I tell you my source, and you insult me some more and then ask for my background, which as for this area goes, I already gave you. I worked at an Apple store for Christmas and was told by someone on the Genius team to tell customers not to charge iPads via iPhone chargers, as they had been known to fry the adapter or in one weird case, the actual outlet. Now I could see the outlet blowing be a bunch of other contributing factors, and not directly associated with the charger. However, the topic arose when a customer came in because her iPhone wall adapter didn't seem to be working, but wasn't that old, and admitted to charging her iPad with it. Why would I NOT believe that?
And my DEEPEST apologies on commenting on old threads. I know how vital that is to existance and what an inconvenience it is to EVERYONE else. I'll be honest, I wasn't checking dates as I assumed suggested posts with like one answer near the top of the list were newer.
Fine, I did something foolish, but I still win as I'm not either of you heartless ****** with nothing better to do than Internet harass others. Congratulations on your existences. -
Dear Apple,
I use the same Apple ID on my iPad mini and my iPhone 5. My iPhone 5 was stolen on may 12, 2013. Do you know how to get it back?Click here for information.

Family of 5, all use the same Apple ID/Password/Account. In settings/messages/send>recieve you can "check" my email and up to three phone numbers. Essentially allowing all iMessages to be copied to shared account numbers. Please help me figure out how to prevent my children from recieving my text correspondence.
On the devices for the members of your family that you DO NOT want to see your iMessagees, go to
Settings App
Messages
Send and Receive
You should see a list of available contacts which would make messages appear. Make certain that each family member has their own individual contact and NOT the same one that you use. I find it useful to have each family member have their own icloud email and use that for iMessaging my kids. My kids do not have iPhones, but if yours do, their phone number should be listed as well. For iPads and iTouches, use icloud email addresses. If you need to send a message to all 3 kids, say, you can just add all three emails to the To box on your iMessage.
Hope that makes sense. -
2 iphone 4, 1 computer. i upgraded to ios 5 and just updated my wifes phone as well. her phone got wiped of all apps and all my contacts were put on her phone. we had been using the same apple id but different user acct on our laptop. How do i get her phone back to normal??
Have your wife log in to her user account on the laptop. Launch iTunes, then connect her phone to the computer with the USB cable. Sync. That should put back all apps and media. Since you already upgraded her to iOS 5 she'll have to manually enter all her settings and preferences, and organize her home screens.

Hello, I would like to know if I can use the same nike Ipod sensor with two different ipods. I want to use the same sensor sometims with an Ipod touch and sometimes with an Ipod Nano, I want my trainings with both Ipods to be registered to the same account. I want them to be registered to only one account, not as it had been used by two different people.
Of course. You should use the same AppleID on all your devices. Why would you create a new one?

My gen 3 iPod Touch seems to have duplicated all my music since updating to IOS 5 so that it now only holds half as much. What can I do about it? I'm using the same iTunes library with OS 10.6 and all software up to date.
Is the camera damaged? Could be a hardware problem.
Try:
Close the Camera app in the multitasking bar, then try again.
Restart/Reset/Restore your iPod. In that order. -
Hello - my wife and I use the same appleID (legacy of our first ipod) and now that we've gone to the cloud with multiple devices, is there a smart, easy way to either segregate the data in the iCloud to each of our respective devices or ?? Thx in advance ...
Hello eagjdw
You can keep the one Apple ID for purchases and then create another one for a personal account for contacts and calendars. The article below will assist further

iphoto will not import my photos from my digital camera because it says it is having a problem downloading my photos. I'm using the same digital camera I have always had and have the current version of iphoto and am using snowleapord 10.6.8. Any thoughts?
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there? -
iTunes randomly stops playing purchases that have previously viewed on the same hardware. It has an error message about HD. How can this issue be resolved? What information is available besides the "learn more" option that does not deal with the problem?
Many people have the same problem. However, there is little or nothing readily available to users. This problem has existed for two or more years. Does anyone have anything to offer about this disturbing problem?Thanks for the suggestion kcell. I've tried both versions
9.0.115 and 9.0.124 and both fail with the policy permission error.
I also tried with and without your crossdomain.xml file but
with the same result. It looks like this file is intended for URL
policy, instead of socket policy. Recently Adobe separated the two.
When I run with the files installed on my dev PC, it does
work, which makes sense because the flash player isn't loaded from
an unknown domain.
I did get one step closer. If a crossdomain.xml in the server
root exists and the socketpolicy file is loaded from the app folder
then the first two warnings disappear. The logs now show:
OK: Root-level SWF loaded:
https://192.168.2.5/trunk/myapp.swf
OK: Policy file accepted: https://192.168.2.5/crossdomain.xml
OK: Policy file accepted:
https://192.168.2.5/trunk/socketpolicy.xml
Warning: Timeout on xmlsocket://192.168.2.5:843 (at 3
seconds) while waiting for socket policy file. This should not
cause any problems, but see
http://www.adobe.com/go/strict_policy_files
for an explanation.
Warning: [strict] Ignoring policy file with incorrect syntax:
xmlsocket://192.168.2.5:993
Error: Request for resource at xmlsocket://192.168.2.5:993 by
requestor from https://192.168.2.5/trunk/myapp.swf is denied due to
lack of policy file permissions.
Which basically says, everything is okay, but you stay out
anyway.
PS: I found the XML schema files here:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/fplayer9_security_02.html
and the socket policy schema:
http://www.adobe.com/xml/schemas/PolicyFileSocket.xsd.
UPDATE: When serving up the policy file on port 843 using the
example perl script then the socket connection seems to be accepted
and the connect succeeds. After that flex hangs trying to logon to
the IMAP server.
