After a few downloads, using "Save image as..." causes Firefox to download the image again even though its already on the screen.

You would think that having downloaded an image and displayed it on the screen, Firefox would be able to save the image to disk (using right-click, "Save image as...") without need of downloading it all over again. But that's exactly what it does after just a few image saves.
This can be both expensive and time consuming when I happen to be working via a mobile or dial-up connection, which is often.
Any ideas?

As an addendum, the 10.6.8 OS has also been sluggish when I log in or out of my computer (my old PowerBook G4 boots faster after being off).  Otherwise, everything else seems normal.

    used wrong charger with ipod classic, now it wont turn on, displays the low battery icon even though its connected to the wright adapter.
    Can anyone help ?
    please?

    WHow long have you left it to charge?  Have you tried resetting it after a short period of time to see if that can help jumpstart the charging process? To do this, press and hold both the Select/Center and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

  • If I switch my installed PS6, Illustrator and InDesign over to the Cloud, will I have to pay monthly even though I already purchased the programs? And will I then be able to use the program on another computer when I sign into my adobe account?

    If I switch my installed PS6, Illustrator and InDesign over to the Cloud (from an installed program with the code, like Adobe used to do it), will I have to pay monthly even though I already purchased the programs? And will I then be able to use the program on another computer when I sign into my adobe account? I know how to switch it over, I just want to make sure I won't also have to pay monthly even though it's already been purchased.

    Your purchase of licensed version of Adobe applications does apply to CC subscriptions.  If you subscribe you will pay for the subscription on whatever periodic basis you choose (monthly versus annually).

  • HT4889 How do I get the files that transferred from my old mac to this new mac to all merge so I am not using 2 set ups? In other words, I have stuff on the "new mac" and everything else on the "old mac" even though they are on the same computer.

    I need to merge my files that were transferred from my old mac to my new mac - for some reason I now have 2 separate setups on my new mac.  I need everything merged to one account.
    Thanks!

    Did you use Migration Assistant? If you set up your new Mac first, you created a user account and when you used MA later, it transferred over the old one. The only way to avoid that is to use Setup Assistant at the beginning of the setup. I used MA once and spent a long time getting rid of duplicates - you can either do that manually or start over: use recovery (Command + R or Command + Option + R keys) during startup, go to Utilities > Disk Utility, erase your disk and download/install again. While going through the setup, use Setup Assistant - it will port over your one and only user account rather than create another.

  • I preordered a movie a while ago and received an email with the confirmation but now that it is available to everyone i can't seem to download it, it says that i have to purchase it again even though i already payed. HELP MEEEE PLEASE

    help

    You are sure that you've paid for it, it's been deducted from your payment method e.g. account's balance or credit card ? Pre-orders aren't paid-for when you pre-order them, you are charged when they are released and you download them - at any time up until that point you could cancel the pre-order, so you can't be charged until then.

  • I plugged my new iPhone 5 into iTunes and my wife was still logged on now when I want to download it comes up with my wife's I'd and not mine even though when I check the iTunes I'd on the phone it has my ID any help would be good

    I plugged my new iPhone into iTunes but my wife was still logged in, now when I try and download or purchase anything it comes up with my wife's ID even though when I check the apple ID on the phone it is my ID, how do I correct this.

    I recently had a 32gb iphone 4 I backed up the phone via cable to my pc and when I tried to sync the 16gb iphone 5 no apps synced and some other data as well there was an error message saying there is not enough room.  there is plenty of room on the new phone for apps, is there any way i can access the photos and apps that are on my pc?  I am mainly concerned about my photos. Do I have to buy a 32gb phone now?

    When I record with my iSight camera, after a few seconds it stops recording and tell me there is "Dropfame" images. What do I have to make?
    A few weeks ago, my camera doesn't do that, but since 1-2 weeks it becomes impossible to record with it.

    Hi mstearns59,
    If you are having issues with the audio in a movie in iTunes and video playback issues I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -

  • Premiere cs4 Not Responding after a few mins use

    Hello,
    I have been using premiere cs4 to make stop motion videos for awhile on this computer and have started having problems with the software.
    Everytime I try to use it after a few mins sometimes 5 sometime less it goes white and says not responding resulting in having to close the program. Im starting to get late on deadlines and this is becoming a problem. Ive resorted to doing one step saving then having to close the program and repeat the process.
    My system...
    i5 750 OCed to 3.5ghz
    8gb 1600mhz ram
    I know its not the best but untill now its done this work for me fine. I am using stills at a res of 1920x1080 at 150 dpi and there are thousands of stills but again This is a new problem and I have been doing this for awhile with no issues.
    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello,
    Thanks for the quick reply.
    I did attempt a small batch sized as you stated but it did not help. It doesnt seem to matter what I'm working on within the program I could have no content and just click different menus and within mins the system will stop responding.  That being said the final video must be in 1080p.
    Here are the the items requested in the FAQ given.
    i5 750 OCed to 3.5ghz also tried stock clock settings.
    8gbs 1600mhz ram
    2 hhd set up as follows
    500gb 7400rpm hdd, program Pagefile, Media cache
    1tb 7400rpm hdd, media, project file, previews
    4gb virtual page file
    win 7 fully updated
    premiere pro fully updated
    No Audio used
    Ive tried various file sizes and settings to match those files all with same result.
    As I state above the actual conent size, type and quantity doesnt seem to matter 3-5 mins in and it just stops responding.
    Things ive tried so far.
    I did extensive mem tests on my ram with no issues
    reverted my over clock to stock settings
    reinstall the software several times.
    Also of note my ram never goes over 50% usage so Im not using all my ram.
    I hope this helps i tried to include everything mentioned on the listed FAQ

    In Illustrator, I have a saved artwork, then I'm saving a copy as PDF, as usual.
    After I keep the AI file open, making some modifications which I don't want to save, so I close the file and click "Don't Save".
    Even though I clicked that, the file's modification time is changing.
    (The modifications I made are not there, so it's not really saving but why the date is changing then?)
    Please find the cause of it! Thank you!

    All I can suggest is that you open that file on the MBA and save it as a new file, then see if you can open the new one on the iMac.

    I'm running Snow Leopard on my iMac. I have a heap of documents that were created using an old word processor application called Apple Works and it wont work on Lion or Mt Lion. So I'm stuck with Snow leopard for the moment. I guess I can't use the new iPhoto either then...

  • Safari won't trust ANY website certificate, even after I tell it to, and i can't connect to the APP store even though I'm clearly connected to the internet.  This all started immediately following a RAM upgrade.  Please advise.

    Safari won't trust ANY website certificate, even after I tell it to (click Always trust this site option), and i can't connect to the APP store even though I'm clearly connected to the internet.  This all started immediately following a RAM upgrade.  Please advise.

    Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. If the problem isn't solved, ask for further instructions.
    1. Are the current date (including the year) and time shown on your system clock? If not, correct them and test.
    2. Disable any third-party firewall, "security" software, or network filter.
    3. In some versions of OS X, Parental Controls has a bug that prevents loading of secure websites. Turn it off.
    4. The process by which OS X checks the validity of root SSL certificates doesn't work behind the authenticating SOCKS proxies used on some enterprise networks. If applicable, contact your network administrator. The proxy server may need to have its settings changed.

  • My iPod shuts off repeatedly when using the Nike running app. Have already tried the headphones solution that Apple has recommended. Can anyone help?

    My iPod shuts off repeatedly when using the Nike running app. Have already tried the headphones solution that Apple has recommended. Can anyone help?

    Using the 5th generation iPod. Purchased it a few months ago before the new one was launched. Yes the workout randomly ends when I am no where near the time or distance I have programmed in. I keep tried to restart the workout and the same thing keeps happening over and over again. I figured it may have been the headphones but I have even tried holding the headphone connection in place, and different headphones as well and it continues to happen.

  • Kaspersky save banking module causes Firefox to crash; in Internet Explorer no problem

    Problem relates to combination of Pc Win 8.1, using Firefox 34, Kaspersky Internet Security 2015 and Rabo Internet banking. When I use Internet Explorer, utilise the KIS Save Banking Module and log in to the Rabo site, all goes well. When I do the same with Firefox, the browser opens a save window and waits for Rabo to connect. This goes on endless and the Firefox window gives "does not react". The only way of continueing is closing Firefox and start all over again. When I switch of the Save Banking module there is also no problem i.e. that the https site of Rabo works as normal. In earlier releases of KIS the problem never occurred.
    Rabo technicians say, that there is no problem with their certificate (which indeed seems not the problem). Kaspersky says that Firefox updates so quickly, that development of compatible add-ons is difficult.
    What do I wrong?

    '''''Kaspersky says that Firefox updates so quickly, that development of compatible add-ons is difficult.'''''
    This Rapid Release schedule has been in effect for well over 3 years now ''[started with Firefox 5.0 on June 21, 2011]'' - so it's not "new".
    Ask Kaspersky why they even offer add-ons for Firefox if they can't keep up with Firefox updates. ''FWIW, Chrome is on the same type of 6 week update routine that Mozilla uses, but with Chrome their updates are hidden and can install an update without Chrome even being open. Their "updater" runs whenever the PC is running; unlike Firefox which "looks for" updates while Firefox is running.''
    Also, Norton / Symantec along with AVG are able to keep up with the Firefox Rapid Release schedule, and Roboform is fairly consistent; ask Kaspersky why "they" say ''and prove'' they are unable to keep up?
    IMO, they're selling a product with features that they have no intention of keeping updated properly or in a timely manner. ''And I wonder how the US boycott of their home country's economy might be impacting their updates.''
