Abiword slow smoothscrolling FAQ fix didn't work

I love abiword but this laggy scrolling is driving me nuts. The FAQ solution did nothing. The custom section of Abiword.Profile looks like this:
<Scheme
name="_custom_"
ZoomType="100"
RulerUnits="cm"
AutoSaveFile="1"
EnableSmoothScrolling="0"
ExtraBarVisible="1"
/>
Is there some trick to editing xml? I used leafpad.
There is a EnableSmoothScrolling="1" entry in the builtin section at the top of the file, but when I set it to 0 it just resets itself.
Thanks very much! I recently got printing working, audio, consistent Chinese fonts, 'open with' working in pcmanfm, and some other things, this is actually my last niggling issue. For now...

Automatic Update Firmware Fix didn't work?

I have some graphic pixel glitches and sometimes my iMac is freezing. So I wait until Apple released the Firmware fix. When I installed the Firmware Fix using the automatic updater I noticed that the updater didn't want to restart my iMac - which makes me wonder because I think a firmware update is something to restart your Mac - or am I wrong.
Ok, after the Update I made myself a restart and my iMac freezed withing a minute and I had some pixel glitches on my Desktop. So I moved my iMac to the Apple Store for replacement.
Yesterday I got a call from them - saying that I didn't made the Firmware Fix and they did it now and that everything is working now?? So I ask myself, did the update manager didn't install the firmware fix propper?
To all of you still having problems with your iMac - try to download the patch and install it manualy again - if the patch don't shout that it is installed already - install it and your problems should be gone.

Thanks Steve,
but what I wonder about is that the firmware update was in my regular automatic update list. I installed the update as any other updates but the Mac didnt restart after this update. I thought this is ok but it seems not. So I think the firmware update that comes with the regular updater had a problem and didnt install propper without letting the user know. At the Apple Store they found out that the firmware update is not installed - I think this is a bit confusing to people who only run the normal updater and don't know how to install a firmware update. So if there are any more people out there who think that they did the firmware update - but the freezing or pixel problems are still happen - download the firmware manualy and install the firmware update again. If the update is already installed you get a message so there is no way to harm your mac.

After trying Chris CA's fix, the music library was still incorrect, despite "Copy files to iTunes" being checked.
I created a new, empty library. Impoertd one cd. Quit. - THe library works where it is and all iTunes 'special' files are in place -
I then opened iTunes, and dropped good copies of my iTunes music into the library window. After an all night copying session, I am left with the following.
1 album (the original) in my library.
iTunes with the correct library address, but all the music added.
(Odd, I thought, as there is only one album fodler in the iTunes Music folder)
So i got info on a few tracks.
iTunes has placed them all in the Trash, maintaining the folder structure.
The iTunes .xml file says that they arelocated in:
<key>Location</key><string>file://localhost/Volumes/Pythagoras160/RAH%20iTunes%20Library/iTunes%20Music/_.. And%20You%20Will%20Know%20Us%20By%20the%20Trail%20of%20Dead/The%20Best%20(Live)%20-%20Single/01%20The%20Best.m4p</string>
But the info on the track in the iTunes library says, emphasis mine,
Pythagoras160:.Trashes:501:new iTunes Library:_..And You Will Know US By The Trail of Dead:The Best (Live) - Single:01 The Best.m4p
And, despite it being in the trash, it plays.
Suggestions on how I can get all of my music into that folder and have iTunes realise that it is there? Telling it to copy the music into the folder in preferences doesn't seem to have worked.
No, I'm not planning on emptying the trash.

Do you have the orange Firefox button, which is an abbreviated menu?
If you have no menus ''and'' no toolbars, check that you're not in full screen mode. Use the F11 key to switch between full screen and normal modes.
To reset your menus and toolbars, you can use Firefox's Safe Mode.
First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
Next, close Firefox, hold the Shift key on the keyboard, and restart. You should get a dialog with various reset options. The only one to check is toolbars. More info: [https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode].
Does that help?

Some emails keep being reloaded, even from 2+years ago. Forum-suggested fixes didn't work.

Tbird regularly loads emails 2, 3, even 4 or more times from my Hotmail account. (Some, not all - seems random.) Sometimes, I've read them but not deleted them, but most times, I've already deleted them from Tbird (though I still want them in Hotmail). I know it's not because I'm being sent the message more than once, because some are automatic, news updates, and others are suddenly showing up from weeks ago. Other forum suggestions have not worked - I've deleted hidden trash files, removed everything from inbox to local folders, deleted trash and junk, compacted all folders (had already been doing this periodically), etc., and NOTHING CHANGES. I started deleting a bunch of old emails from my inbox (had accumulated too many, I know), and now it wants to download 1900 messages every time I try to get mail - even emails from 2012! I can't use Tbird at all now. One forum suggested that I change from POP3 to IMAP, but I want to keep emails in folders on my PC, because I live in Uganda and can't always get online, but need info from the msgs. I don't want to lose emails in the online site either, so I don't want to delete them from there. I've never had this prob before, and I've used Tbird for YEARS. Ready to drop it and try another client. HELP!

It sounds like your Popstate.dat file has got corrupted.
It keeps a record of what has been downloaded so that it does not redownload emails. Clearly, something has wrong.
You would need to delete the 'popstate.dat file and then Thunderbird will create a new one. The downside is that it will download everything that is on your server Inbox again, but just once.
If you really need to store email on the webmail account, I would do the following in the order shown to avoid downloading all those emails.
'''1. Logon to webmail using a browser.'''
Pop mail accounts can only get access to the server Inbox, so move all your older emails - eg: everything older than eg: a month into other folders in the webmail account.
This will prevent a complete redownload of all those emails.
''' 2. make hidden files and folders visible on your computer'''
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Show_hidden_files_and_folders
The AppData folder is folder is a hidden folder; to show hidden folders, open a Windows Explorer window and choose "Organize → Folder and Search Options → Folder Options → View (tab) → Show hidden files and folders".
'''3. Locate popstate.dat file '''
In Thunderbird:
* Help > Troubleshooting Information
* Click on 'Show Folder'
A new window opens showing your Profile folder.
* '''Close Thunderbird now - this is important'''
* Click on 'Mail' folder
* click on mail account name
* locate and delete this file: '''popstate.dat'''
Restart Thunderbird.
It will download anything left in the webmail server Inbox.
You can easily remove the duplicate emails.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

You can not merge accounts.
Apps are tied to the Apple ID used to download them, you can not transfer them.

In more specific terms. The apps that came on the iPod like the weather and maps and whatnot have been working flawlessly. It's just when I download an app and then disconnect from wifi it's almost like I'm on a timer until the app stops working. It acts like it wants to open, the screen flashes black then resets to the home pages. I've tried all of the basic fixes, rebooting, reseting, uninstalling then reinstalling. But like in my...long...question, the reinstalling option only seems to be a temporary fix. I just recently downloaded the 5.1.1 udate (I think that's what it was) does that have anything to do with it, or am I just derpy when it comes to iPods?

I just figured out the print quality issue for my wife with her new iMac and new printer.
She replaced both at once and she couldn't understand why her Artisan 730 was lower quality then her Epson R280 when they had the same specs.
Turns out the newer printer had the option to connect via wifi which we used during setup.
The driver options are completely different depending on how you connect.
Once I connected via USB the correct options were available and the print quality was better.
Looking at the R2400 it dies not have wifi, but while researching the problem for my wife someone esle was having an issue updating to the latest printer driver.
If you go into the print utility from the Printer and Scanner system preference and under the general tab you should have driver 5.5.
One user had to delete the old printer driver before Software Update loaded the newer printer driver.

On my MacBook Pro (w Snow Leopard) I always had to reconnect my wifi at home when it woke up. I upgraded my router from an old Netgear to a newer N D-Link and stopped having to do that.
I would be surprised you would have that problem with an Airport Extreme, you might check to see if there is a firmware update for it.

Removed. Re-synced. Still not working. Factory reset the phone, re-installed music... made a GIANT "Other" file instead of actually adding any songs.
Factory resetting again. Any other solutions?
EDIT: If It helps, I'm doing this all over USB connection, not trying to sync music through wifi or anything.
