About:Config Preferences Keep Getting Reset

I got a new computer and installed Firefox from scratch. The default search engine was set to Yahoo on the new install, but I want to use Google. I'm slightly familiar with About:Config, so I was able to change the settings and it uses Google now, but when I close Firefox and reopen it, the search engine is set back to Yahoo. I don't know what option to change to make Google stick.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window or otherwise make changes.

My homepage keeps getting reset to something I do not want. How to I keep my homepage from being changed

I go to tools and set my homepage. Everytime I click on home it changes it back to some search page I do not want. How do I prevent this

Set the Integer pref browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes to 0 on the about:config page to get the about:sessionrestore page immediately with the first restart after a crash has occurred or the Task Manager was used to close Firefox.
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes
That will allow you to deselect the tab(s) that you do not want to reopen, but will allow to reopen other tabs.

To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
*Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
*Preferences that have been modified show as bold (user set).
*Preferences can be reset to the default via the right-click context menu if they are user set
*Preferences can be changed via the right-click context menu: Modify (String or Integer) or Toggle (Boolean)

My Apple id keeps getting reset. How can I stop this?

My Apple id keeps getting reset. How can I stop this?

That's fine. I just didn't understand, but suspected that's what you meant.
You should contact Apple about this. Go to this website, find your country, and call Apple and ask to speak to Account Security about this.

My apple id keeps getting reset. I have had to change my password at least 6 times in the last two weeks and it has now reset again

You probably are mixing up your password with passwords from other accounts. If i were you i would write down your password somewhere easy to acess and make it very hard to guess if you ever reset it.

I can't seem to remove Incredibar from about:config. When I reset, it still comes back

I have removed ALL instances of incredibar/incredimail from my laptop. When I go into the Firefox configuration (about:config), I reset ALL of the incredibar extensions. However, when I restart Firefox, ALL of the incredibar extensions come back. This is really annoying because I have completely removed incredibar. Please help. Thanks
-James Sullivant
P.S. I don't want to lose any of my Firefox customizations, either.

Hope this video helps you to get rid of it. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVNwJPuy898 How to Remove Mystart By Incredibar Toolbar from Firefox]

Password keeps getting reset.

Hi there.
I've had my password been reset about 20 times in the last few months, not by me. I keep getting emails saying that my password has been reset without my consent. I've changed the password back every single time, each time making it increasingly obscure. I've also changed all my security questions to almost impossible to guess answers even by my close family.
I'm now starting to believe that somebody is either hacking my account or my computer has contracted some sort of virus.
This issue is making me absolutely livid. It's a real nuisance.
Any suggestions very welcome.
Charlie.

I'm assuming that you're talking about your Apple ID password? Most likely, these e-mails either represent a phishing attempt, in which case there's nothing to be done but send them to your junk mail folder, or someone is repeatedly trying to reset your account password. To rule out the latter, enable two-factor authentication on your Apple ID, which will prevent any password reset attempts without providing some additional authentication.

How do I disable "Exceptions" button for "Block pop-up windows" in Content tab?. I am able to Disable other Exception buttons in this tab using about:config preference.

Need a way to disable "Exception" button for "Block Pop-up windows" in Tools-> Options -> Content tab. I want to be able to do this for Locking Down Firefox preferences.

That button doesn't have a pref associated with it, so you can't disable that button with a pref on the about:config page or a lockPref call.
That only leaves the choice to remove that button with code in userChrome.css

"Including when automatically checking" keeps getting reset

I am using MobileMe including a MacBook Pro and iMac. Set up my work email account as POP3 on both systems. I keep unchecking "Including when automatically checking for new mail" because I don't always want to be downloading these for a few reasons. However, the box keeps getting re-checked on both systems! how do I prevent this? Also have this on iphone but the account is not active.

I think the problem might arise from the process of retrieving mail. I've gone into Mail, Preferences, General and have set retrieval to Manual rather than every minute. I'll also avoid using the 'Get Mail' button, as I think this is part of the problem - I think it might cause the 'Include when automatically checking for new mail' box to be checked.
So, given that the MobileMe mail account pushes new email to my computers instantly, I'm still getting my mail quickly, with no routine checking.
I'll report back if this keeps working.

Im trying to set up my msn accout on my iphone 4. It worked fine until about a week about. I keep getting "unable to verify account information".

I'm trying to setup my msn email account. About a week ago, I stopped receiving emails. I deleted acct and tried to re-setup, but I keep getting "unable to verify acct. information". Any suggestions???

How do I copy extensions, extension settings, and about:config preferences to a new profile (different Windows login or different computer)?

I have/had no trouble with Firefox at all. What I have is a new computer, with multiple users. I would like to use my relatively secure Firefox setup (i.e. NoScript with a LOT of configuration and site data stored, PrefBar and TabMix configuration, a bunch of custom settings in about:config) for all the user accounts on the new machine, but give users the option to change their settings afterwards (i.e. use the old profile to initialize all the new user profiles).
I understand why this is not recommended when one has Firefox issues and has to make a new profile. This is not the issue here.
I have the old profile (actually the entire Documents and Settings/<username> folder) backed up, but do not have a setup whereby I can run Firefox using this old profile.
How do I do this?
PS the computer I'm posting this from is neither the old nor the new computer in question, so the "educated guesses" section is meaningless.

Never mind - I successfully brute-forced it in about half an hour. Renamed the profile folders and copied everything, emptied the cache, deleted the password store in all the accounts but mine, and fired up Firefox.
Works great.

My password keeps getting reset

Nearly every day now my Apple ID password gets reset. I had some problems with my security questions being changed so had to ring up Apple to sort it. I don't have another email which I'm guessing will stop this? I'm running out of passwords to have.
Help :(

This explains it. Too bad apple hasent said much

My proxy settings keep getting reset to Manual Proxy Config on every Firefox4 restart.

Tried disabling all add-ons and plugins and still no avail. Please help! Every time Firefox restarts, I always have to go Option > Advanced > Network > Settings and click No Proxy. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Disabling the extension (add-on) FireShot did it for me =)

Resolution keeps getting reset by sleep mode

This is on an older Mac Mini. I bought my latest right before Yosimite came out. I tried Yosimite on the older Mac Mini to see if I liked it and so far I'm torn between Yosimite and Mavericks. I've been running Yosimite on this Mac Mini almost since it became available in the app store. Recently however every time I go into sleep mode my screen resolution gets changed and other nasty things happen. I've been using caffeine 24/7 to keep this machine out of sleep mode as a work around, but this is going to shorten the lifespan of this computer. This started after a security update from Apple.
Specifics about the system.
Mac Mini late 2009 2.28 ghz intel core 2 Duo.
Graphics Nvidia GeForce 9400
System goes through a Trendnet KVM switch to a Samsung widescreen monitor using VGA (Apple brand adapter)
The internal HD is dying so I run Yosimite off an external Seagate drive.
Logs are not much help though this one I am curious about. Remotecontrol SHOULD be disabled.

Have had major problems with flash crashing the last week or so. Seems like I'm installing a new version of Flash every other day and each is less stable than the last. I'll be SOOOO glad when HTML5 takes over and no more Flash.
Any ideas?

Roger youre way off base, it has happened to me countless times, confirmed by Apple stores that it is an original email and have spent hours with them both in store and on the phone, have changed my password so many times and two days later it will not give me access.
Rog if they are guessing my passwords I salute their knowledge of Latin, Greek and random thoughts of mine.
But I have found the answer. I am buying a Samsung and smashing my IPhone.
Never again Apple crap.

Why does my password keep getting reset?

I find that about 2-3 times a week, my password to my account stops working. I have to regularly reset it. Has that happened to anyone else, and any idea as to why that would occur?

I haven't heard that so far as. How much i am aware there was a password revok that happened with some users few weeks back. But that should have been fixed by now.
Try resetting your password once again and let us know in case you face the same issue in future.

Computer Clock keeps getting reset

My computer clock keeps resetting itself. I have replaced the PRAM battery with a brand new one and I still am receiving this error message. What else could be going on?

The card was already installed, working fine. To troubleshoot another issue (I cannot export video from my Canopus ADVC300), I removed all PCI cards. All 4 slots are used. After I removed the 4 PCI cards, my Mac started losing time. I then replaced the PRAM battery and reset the PRAM. This didn't solve the issue. When I put the other 3 PCI cards back in, nothing happened as well. When I put the Sonnet Tempo SATA back in, the computer started retaining the time. Unfortunately, I the computer is not retaining the time anymore- even with all 4 PCI cards installed. How do you reset the MOBO?
