12 core system prefs not saving settings??

Got a new 12 core a couple of days ago but I when I change my setting...i.e. for the sound to play out of my external speakers, I have to let it to line out every time I boot the machine again.
Anyone else experiencing this?
Any ideas why?
Thanks all!!
-Rob

The only thing I can think of is to remove the following preference file:
YourHomeFolder/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.screensaver.xxxx.plist
where xxxx is a long hexadecimal number.
(this will do no harm to you system; the file will be re-created automatically).

MSI GT70 not saving settings

Hello, I have a new GT70 2oc-008us and when I purchased the laptop I also bought a Samsung 840 120gb ssd and I installed and migrated the OS myself. Everything else works fine like games but I have this weird issue with non of the MSI installed programs saving their setting after a shutdown. For example, the killer network manager is not saving the setting in which it shows the dialog on close or auto updating which is kinda annoying and the sound blaster cinema is not saving settings like when I plug in my headphones it goes to 5.1 surround instead of headphones or when I play around with the equalizer or the surround sound option to optimize movie or gaming experience. This is quite annoying because I play a lot of games and watch a lot of movies and I do not like constantly changing my settings. So if you know of a solution to my problem could you please help me out?
Thank you

For the toolbar problem delete the com.apple.Safari plist from Home/Library/preferences. To have a link open in a new tab you must command-click on the link and have the appropriate box checked in Safari>Preferences>Tabs.

Bridge not saving settings.

I am using Bridge with CS4 and have the following minor but irritating problem.
Bridge does not save the current settings such as last folder used or screen view settings when the computer system is shut down.
These setting are saved during periods of opening and closing bridge while the computer remains powered up but are not saved (presumably to the registry) when the computer is powered down.
I am using Windows XP / service pack 3
I presume that there is an entry in the system registry that needs editing. I would appreciate if anyone with knowledge of a solution for this problem would assist me.
TIA
Roy Berger

Thank you for the information, it is most helpful.
Of course you are correct about me having bridge set to "autoload on
startup". It will look into closing Bridge before shutting down.
Appreciate the prompt reply,

ITunes not saving settings

Every time I start iTunes after a reboot, the "first-time" wizard pops up, and my settings are not saved. I have tried to unset the Application Data folder from Read-Only, and I have tried deleting both of the .prefs files. This seems to happen every time I install a new program or modify the registry in any way. How can I fix this problem?

Any help?

Energy System Preferences NOT SAVING...

I'm trying to set my computer to wake at a certain time. i've checked the box and entered the time/date i want the computer to start up in system settings, then LOCK the changes.
when i go back to system settings a few seconds later, my settings are not saved and the lock is UNLOCKED (without me having to unlock it, enter my admin info, yada, yada, yada).
what gives?

If Carolyn's suggetion doesn't work...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then Trash these 2 files...
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.AutoWake.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
Reboot & set it up again.

System preferences not saving

Every time I log out, any system preferences I had set up are not saving. Such as what should boot up in the dock or what programs should be in the system bar or the settings for the keyboard and mouse.
Thanks for any guidance on this issue.

i did the:
chmod -RN ~/Library/Preferences
workks great and now my preferences are saving, but my MAIL preferences not, at least i fix one problem.
i found this:
" WillytheKidd
what I did or seem to have found is that if I do a clean install of Lion and do not use the Snow Leopard preferences from the Time Machine Backup I have I do not have a problem. I have tried several ways to fix this and the only thing that worked for ME is a complete clean install OS and apps. "
I used the preferences from my TM, maybe thats the problem.

User prefs not saving

Recently, preferences set by my users are not saving. Even if you set your prefs, shut the program down and re-start it, nothing is saved. Of course, if they log out and in again, its the same thing.
All users are using LDAP to the server to login, and all user folder are mounted over the network. The only recent change was a system update yesterday, but I did this in hopes of solving the problem (It did not).
Any ideas on what I can look at to try and resolve this issue?
Thanks!

Lion not saving settings, iTunes not working, iPhoto not repairing

having a ton of issues and not sure if it's upgrading to Lion, updating iTunes or something else causing the problem.
When I'm logged in as the main user getting a ton of problems including;
1) no matter which box I check or uncheck or which windows I close before shutting down, every time I log in as my usual user it opens about 20 windows including about 6 files in Excel which I've already closed, said I wanted to delete (they were recovered), etc. Other windows that open are firefox, settings, a video I started watching about a month ago, etc
2) applications are frequently crashing
3) nothing will synch with itunes. I plug in the iphone, ipad or touch and it recognizes that it's there and then proceeds to do the rotating rainbow thing for ever (I've tried leaving something plugged in overnight) or until I force quite
4) iphoto indicates that the library needs repairing - repairing does nothing, rebuilding does nothing, repairing permissions does nothing, removing and reinstalling does nothing.
5) most settings are not saved. things like changing the Login Items, 'Restore Windows when quitting...' option do not save but things like file sharing options does save.
what I've tried that didn't work;
1) reinstalling Lion
2) reinstalling itunes
3) reinstalling iphoto
4) reinstalling itunes with iphoto removed
5) tried quitting applications with option-command-Q (they still reopened when I re logged in)
5) also tried to manually delete the 'saved application states' but can't get to the folder (can find the library folder but it says the saved application states folder does not exist)
the only thing that works is setting up a new user and logging in there. Most of the problems seem to go away but all my files, itunes library, etc are under my other user.
so, anyone have any ideas? if not, is there an easy way to transfer all my files, itunes library (hopefully including playlists!), etc?
Thanks for any help!

Sounds like something malicious or malfunctioning in your user.
What you can do is use the Grouping or other tag feature to tag all your songs in certain playlists, this will apply to the song file itself.
For instance I have music grouped like this:
Popular 00's Medium Hits
Popular 90's Hard Hits
Classic Rock 80's Very Hard Hits
Blues 70's Medium Hits
So I can create Smart Playlists containing the keywords in the Grouping.
No you don't have to go through all that. Something to think about in the future when you switch machines or need to transfer to another user.
You can simply transfer your entire iTunes folder into the Music folder of the new user via the Users/Shared folder, open a copy of the
iTunes Music Library.xml
In TextEdit or another text program with "find and replace" ability.
Change all instances of your old user name with the new one, save and relaunch iTunes, it will load this file and have the correct pathname/user to locate your files so the playlists remain intact.
Once your up on the new user, delete the infected or corrupted one, as that what it seems to be occuring.

I´m using a MacMini with the latest updtes and only apple harware, suddenly the mouse stoped puping up the dashboard, when I go to system preferences the scroll botton is not asigned to the dashboard, a click on it and then it works fine as long as i do not close system preferences, if I do close them then it stops working and if I reopen system preferences the button is again not asigned to the dashborad, the fact is that the preferences I define for the mouse regardless of the funcion i asign to them are not saved after closing system preferences.
Thanks for any help.

Sounds like you might have a series of corrupt preference (.plist) files, or else more problems.
likely a corrupt
com.apple.systempreferences.plist and a com.apple.dockpreferences.plist files in your User/Library folder
However it might not be just that alone

System Prefs not showing all disks

It's been some time since I backed up and I've just copied over to my Lacie 500 drive the contents of my main drive. On checking with Startup Drive in System Prefs I note that I don't see the Lacie nor my second HD which I use with FCP editing content. (I was going to treat my Lacie to being the startup Drive as a test). What I have sshowing is the normal HD startup drive and Network Startup showing. No second HD nor the Lacie. In About This Mac, no Lacie drive is showing.
What have I cocked up, if anything?

I'm wondering why mine now aren't! I've cocked up something and maybe the drives need validating?
I thought this was answered. You copied over the contents of your internal either by dragging or using copy and paste. Startup Disc is looking for volumes that will boot the computer; that's why it's called "startup..." I'm beginning to think your drives were never bootable and therefore, never available in Startup Disc.
You can continue using these drives as data drives by dragging things over, but if you want a bootable drive -- and this can be very useful if your internal ever fails, and be up and running right away, or if the internal, startup Volume starts to show serious problems, in which case you can always do a reverse clone from a healthy external back to the internal -- you need to make a clone.
There are two distinct ways you have of creating a bootable, i.e. startup copy of your Internal. You can use Restore from Disc Utility, or, generally much more practical, you can use a cloning application.
There are several; the one I use, which is excellent and is freeware, is Carbon Copy Cloner. Once you do the initial clone, CCC offers the option of doing incremental backups. This will keep the clone looking exactly like the internal (or, since it's a MacPro, secondary drive.)
There is lots of documentation about using CCC and help for getting started at the site.
http://www.bombich.com/
You need to start from a clean, properly Formatted (this is done from the Partitioning area of DU) drive. See this about Formatting. (You have to find out if your MacPro is PPC or Intel. PPC will be Formatted APM (Apple Partition Map) and Intel will be Formatted GUID. For that, look in the Apple Menu> About this Mac>More info> Processor.) Note that Formatting will erase all the data currently on the drive.

System prefs not recognizing Mighty Mouse

I am working on a G5 1.6 Ghz 17" iMac, and have a Mighty Mouse... the mouse scrolls and I can use the right click feature, but system prefs will not recognize the mighty mouse, so I cannot configure it. Nothing happens when I squeeze the side buttons, either.
In system prefs, it just shows the screen for the normal mouse. I thought this was weird, so I plugged the mouse into an old G3 (400Mhz) PowerMac. It worked fine, and system prefs ran fine, there. Both machines are running on 10.4.2.
Any clues would be appreciated!!

It didn't come with a CD – it just came with one of the new G5s that my company ordered, and the IT person gave the mouse to me to use on my G5.

Windows 8 not saving settings

I have a problem with Windows 8 Pro.
Basically, it doesn't save profile settings, for example, created docs, desktop personalisation, log on window personalisation, etc.
So every time I log off or shut down the computer, all settings are reverted to default, like a fresh install.
Even the setting of Other Software's are also not saving, for example, when i change settings of media player's and restart my pc its reverted to default. Even the download history of Internet Download Manager is also reverted back when i shutdown.
Thanks for your help in advance!

I suspect you installed any third party software which restores the previous state. Please check that.
If the computer is in domain environment, please contact IT stuff if there is any group policy to perform the restore.

Battery not saving settings in Logic

Anyone else having trouble saving settings in Battery?
Here's an example of the problem:
1. Open Session1 in Logic (X or 9), open an instance of Battery, open a kit (e.g. 909 Detailed Kit), save, close.
2. Open Session2 in Logic (X or 9), open an instance of Battery, open a kit (e.g. Reggaetoni Kit), save, close.
3. Open Session1 again, Battery reverts to Reggaetoni kit (from the last open session, instead of the current session).
Am I missing something obvious? Could this be a Battery bug? I have searched the interwebs for some info on this, and I seem to be the only one with this issue.
Thoughts?
Thanks!

Maybe you missed previous posts.
Omnisphere is not compatible with Logic's Preset Settings feature. (Both in L8 and L9). The last Omnisohere update fixed a few bugs but not all. For one thing, when you save a patch, Omnisphere will automatically turn on Stack mode, which could completely change the sound if it had Live mode on.
There was a response from some Spectrasonics guy here on the forum who promised a fix, but given the track record of Spectrasonics lately, I wouldn't get my hopes up to high:
* Atmosphere/Trilogy Wrapper disaster (aka unusable)
* Omnisphere compatibility issues with Logic
* Strange Delay of Trillion (death of the shipping person two weeks before the release date causes a 4 month delay???)
Too bad that they still produce the best sounding plugins on the market so it is hard to avoid them.
