Calculator no longer remembers

Until recently, when I opened Calculator in OSX 10.8.2 Mountain Lion or earlier, it would remember what was on it the last time I used it. I always use the Paper Tape window. I use it to add and subtract in my checkbook, so I like having it remember what was on it. I can always clear it if I want to. Now, for some reason, Calculator no longer remembers what was previously on it. It comes up blank every time I open it. I cannot find any preference settings to change it. Is this supposed to be an improvement from one of the recent updates?

Thanks. That did it. but the odd thing is, I am pretty sure I had already unmarked that box before. It seems to have marked itself since.

  • 10.5.8 Finder no longer remembers open windows in FileVaulted home director

    I am having a strange problem since upgrading to 10.5.8 - in my FileVault home directory, the Finder no longer remembers which windows are open. Each time I log in, I get just a clean desktop no matter how many windows were open before. This does not affect any non-FileVaulted users on my system.
    Is this a permissions issue? And if yes, how do I fix it?
    Thanks,
    Michael

  • No longer remembers position in playlist

    I have had my First Gen iPod shuffle for about a year and a half, and for the most part everything still works dandy.
    However, it no longer remembers its position in a playlist or a song from the last time it was turned off. I have tried resetting the firmware (and doing this with different versions of iPod updater) but I still have the same problem. Other than that, the thing plays fine and updates with no problems. I just have had this very strange problem, and haven't found anyone who has had a similar problem who could help me out. This has unfortunately prevented me from using the shuffle for playing audiobooks (as I previously enjoyed doing).
    Has anyone else had this very odd problem, and know how to help me out? I'm running iTunes 6.0.5.20 (I can't run 7 on my machine) and iPod Shuffle firmware version 1.1.4.
    Any help would be greatly aprreciated. Thanks!

    It's not a fix, but a workaround. Don't turn the shuffle off. When you want to stop listening for a while, pause the shuffle. After a period of time it will go to sleep and use a negligible amount of battery.
    To resume playing, press the Play/Pause button. The green LED will blink for 3-5 seconds while the shuffle wakes up, then press Play/Pause again.
    This is the way I use my shuffle, but I don't have any experience with audiobooks.
    Good luck

  • CS4: Rasterize EPS No Longer Remembers Settings

    I rasterize a lot of vector EPS files into high-res bitmaps (2400 ppi 1-bit), and the Rasterize EPS dialog no longer remembers my last-used settings (even if I haven't closed Photoshop since the last one!). It always defaults back to 72 ppi, CMYK. I have to manually change it to 2400 greyscale each and every time, which is incredibly cumbersome when done repeatedly.
    All previous versions remembered the last-used settings (as any application should IMO). Does anyone else see this, or is it just me? Why was this changed? If it ain't broke, don't fix it...

  • IPhone no longer remembers position in track properly

    I'm seeing a couple of problems related to audio playback in OS 3.0. Playing audio in the iPod application doesn't properly remember where I stopped playing a track previously, and doesn't consistently show which track is currently playing. Both of these may be related to playing tracks at 2X speed, but I'm not sure that's always the case.
    I listen to a number of podcasts and sometimes speed through them at 2X speed. Sometimes when I'm doing this when the current track is finished playing the progress slider still shows that it is only half way through the track. Then, when the next track begins it still shows the old track information, although sometimes it eventually advances the display to the next track.
    In addition, almost always, when I try to continue playing later the iPod app no longer properly remembers where I left off. This seems to be related to the above problem in that it continues where the progress slider was last positioned, which, as I mentioned, isn't where the audio is actually.
    So, are others seeing this? Any workarounds?

    Apple, any update on this?
    I listen to long mp3s with the 'Remember Playback Postion' setting checked which are not updating correctly when I sync back to iTunes.

  • Calculations no longer working in Reader on mobile devices

    Hi,
    After upgrading to Adobe Reader 11.2.1 build #90937 the timesheet template that my team uses is not longer adding the hours where it should be.  There appears to be no calculations at all.  I removed Reader and reinstalled and am having the same issue on all devices. 

    Field calculations are performed using JavaScript.
    Starting from Reader for Android 11.2.0, JavaScript support is disabled on Android versions 4.1.x or older.  (Another way of saying is that JavaScript is supported only on Android versions 4.2 or newer.)
    Please see the description below in Help > What's New.
    If you can update your Android OS to 4.2, field calculations should work again.
    We apologize for the inconvenience.  But improved security is our top priority.

  • Javascript Calculator no longer works in FF. Other browsers OK.

    I see that the answer that I posted yesterday got lost by restoring a forum backup, so I'll repost my answer.
    I see that you have already applied the change that I had suggested.
    You need to use document.getElementById.
    See https://developer.mozilla.org/en/DOM/document.getElementById
    <code>function doMath() {
    var one = eval(document.theForm.elements[0].value);
    var two = eval(document.theForm.elements[1].value);
    var m2 = Math.round(one * two);
    var m3 = Math.round(one * two);
    var maxhstopqty = Math.round(m2 / 5);
    var minhstopqty = Math.round(m2 / 8);
    var minhblockqty = Math.round(m2 / 5);
    var maxhblockqty = Math.round(m2 / 3);
    document.getElementById('squareMeters').innerHTML = m2;
    document.getElementById('squareMeters2').innerHTML = m3;
    document.getElementById('minhstopReq').innerHTML = minhstopqty;
    document.getElementById('maxhstopReq').innerHTML = maxhstopqty;
    document.getElementById('minhblockReq').innerHTML = minhblockqty;
    document.getElementById('maxhblockReq').innerHTML = maxhblockqty;

  • Gmail no longer remembers cache in the subject line of a new email

    Per Gmail, they are saying my browser is the cause of no longer remembering history/cache in the subject line of a new email. They suggested going to the security information on my provider and there does not appear to be any button to activate remembering that type of history/cache

    Hello Kevan.
    The Mail.app stores all message recipients in the list of Previous Recipients in Mail (which are stored in the Address Book data file) and the address autofill feature pulls from the Address Book and list of Previous Recipients.
    At the Mail.app menu bar, go to Window and select Previous Recipients.
    A previous recipient that is already entered in the Address Book will have a vCard icon to the left of the name or email address. You can remove a previous recipient from the list or add a previous recipient to the Address Book.

  • The 'Music' app no longer remembers the place when playing Audiobooks.

    I have been downloading Audiobooks from Audible to iTunes for around 10 years. I always ensure that the settings include 'remember place' before uploading them to 'Music' on (currently) my iPhone 4.
    In the last few weeks this seems to have stopped working.
    I selected all of my Audiobooks and applied the 'remember place' flag to all of them and connected the iPhone again to sync it.
    It worked! ... Once. Second time I stopped the player, when I went back to it, it returned to where it had started the previous time; 3 hours 41 minutes. Now, every time I stop the player it returns to 3:41.
    I suspect that the cause is that the 'lock screen' shows the player with the book, and always stays at 3;41, even when playing. My feeling is that this overrides the players pointer, because the minute the phone is unlocked, back it goes to 3:41.
    Does anyone have any ideas how to get round this?
    Many thanks
    Regards
    Cleonw

    WORKAROUND: In iTunes, select the podcast files and hit CMD-I (show info). Set the genre to something other than "Podcast", and in the Options tab, set the Media Type to Music. You can do this to the files that are on your iPhone. If you do this to the files on your computer, they will no longer show up as Podcasts - they'll be mixed in with music files in your library. You can then put these podcasts into playlists on the iPhone, and they'll show up on the phone once it's disconnected. You might need to fool around with this a bit - try it more than once, etc. - I had some podcasts not show up on the iPhone until after a SECOND connect-and-disconnect operation with the computer. Others here might do some experimenting and figure out a smoother set of instructions that will always work - but this is a starting point.
    Note that I ALWAYS "manage music and video files manually" - I NEVER "sync" music and video. Your mileage may vary.
    Apple - please listen: The handling of podcasts in iOS 7 is not a feature, it's a bug. As you can tell from the comments here, MANY people need to manage podcasts as if they were music files (and sometimes, THEY ARE!!!!). The arbitrary decision to treat podcasts differently is WRONG - an audio file is an audio file. I don't need to buy one TV to watch sports and one TV to watch news - because video is video. Get it? If you want to provide a Podcasts app, that's fine, and anyone who wants to use it can do so. But don't RUIN the previous, excellent functionality that we had before, when it's completely unnecessary and a colossal pain (not to mention insult) to your customers. And in some cases, it's a serious driving safety issue.
    I'll be watching this space to see if others can refine the basic workaround that I've found.
    UPDATE: It appears that changing the genre is unnecessary, only the "Media Type". It's probably best to do this only to the copies on the iPhone, so the files in your computer's library are not altered.

  • Firefox no longer remembers history and prompts suggestions from keywords in the locations bar.

    Since updating the latest version of Firefox 3.6, I can no longer type in a keyword or beginning of a url and get prompted for suggested urls in the location bar. I have chose in preferences to remember my history and offer suggestions in the tool bar but it doesn't work. Nothing comes up.

    This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • Calculator no longer accepts pasted equations

    I used to be able to paste an equation into either the Mac or the Windows calculator! I noticed that in the 10.4.3 update Calculator was made to filter out (unusable) characters from anything pasted into it, BUT I only just noticed that that seems to now include things necessary for equations, such as "+" or "-" or "*" or indeed a carriage return or line feed.
    Hence, pasting "101112" or "101112" unhelpfully yields "101112" in the calculator, with no operation having taken place!
    It is a pain if it is now necessary to either manually type the entire list or start up a spreadsheet in order to simply add up a single list of numbers from a shopping list or credit card statement.

    It wouldn't work in Spotlight either, but I found an even better solution!
    A freeware program called Longhand, http://scottfr.googlepages.com/
    The only requirement in pasting the text of the equation is that it all be on the one line, so that rules out a column of numbers, but it at least enables editing the text in a text editor and then pasting the equation in.

  • Zen Xtra no longer remembers where I left off in a tr

    Hi,
    I downloaded and installed the most recent drivers and firmware for my Zen Xtra, and now it doesn't remember where I left off in a track. I listen to long audiobooks in my car so this is very important.
    I used to be able to power down and then when I came back to my car I could just turn it back on and pick up where I left off. Now it always goes back to where I left off many sessions ago, no matter how much I have played since then. In one particular audio book it always goes back to 2:59:0 or something, which is where I left off many many sessions ago.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    chris.

    Both my 1st and 3rd generation models still work with resume, as does my 2nd generation models.
    You are not on your own though, as others have reported similar issues. As yet I haven't seen a solution, but wonder what happens if you hold down the centre button and mark the movie as watched or unwatched and then try again.

  • Has anyone calculated how long it'll take 4K to become the norm?

    Just wondering something, When did 1080p become the norm and how long did ittake to get there? I wanna try and estimate how long it'll take for 4K broadcat/display will be on tv's. and for sale at reasonable prices etc.

    Jordan Canada wrote:...  When did 1080p become the norm and how long did ittake to get there?..
    first 1000-lines TV was broadcasted by the BBC in 1940 ,,,
    in the mid-80ies, socalled D2-MAC was established as a norm, and  was used '92 for broadcasting the Olympics from Barcelona.
    in the US, '96 HD-tv was broadcasted on a regular base... Japan launched HD-tv around 2000...
    There are few hurdles to go: standards, bandwidth and content.
    Standards - are just a pita ... licences, patents, 'political' interests. 4k is incredible amount of data, so compression is of paramount importance - but which one? h265? VP8? ...
    Bandwidth - actual satelite transmissions are for economic reasons often 'crunched to death': by numbers a 1080 picture, but so highly compressed it looks more like VHS
    Speaking of VHS: the 'tape wars' then (VHS vs. the 'better' betamax), was finally decided by the p***-industry...
    which leads to 'content': the fail of home-3D is mainly based upon the lack of content. each 'standard'=company offers a few titles - done.
    To produce now in 4k is probably the future-proof decision; but as long as the consumer has no real 4k-'experience', we will stay with 1080p for quiet a while.
    My personal foreseeing is:
    4k-screens are used to display multiple pictures simultanously - just watch how the younger generations consume media: watching a YT-video, searching for the next, 'texting' WhatsApp meanwhile, receiving pics by FB, listening to Spotify all the time..
    .. and maybe, some content gets delivered in native 4k ..

  • When opening Firefox (3.6.16 or 4.0) and go to another link, firefox no longer remembers that initial (home) page.

    3 computers (all Win 7, 64 bit):
    1) upgraded to 4.0 from 3.6.16 and since reverted back to 3.6.16
    2) upgraded to 3.6.16 from 3.6.15
    3) completely new 4.0 installation.
    When browser is opened to home page and any link (or bookmark) is selected, the back arrow stays grayed out and the currently selected page becomes the "anchor" page that can be returned to.
    Same behavior on all three computers.

    Checked this morning and all three computers' Firefox are working correctly now.
    No Windows patches have been applied and no Firefox updates are evident. The only software that could have updated and been causing the problem appears to be McAfee.

  • Bridge no longer remembers last folder used

    I know it used to do this properly, but lately any time I reboot my computer bridge forgets where it was in my folder tree. For awhile it was always going back to a folder that I hadn't used in ages but lately, it just forgets where it was. I just spent about 1/2 hour going through all the preferences in both PS and bridge but couldn't find a relevant button or check box. Any thoughts out there as to why? Thanks.

    Thanks Curt I'll give that a try. The crazy thing though is that up until 6 mon to a yr ago the thing worked even with it being set to start bridge at logon. The about 6 mons'ish ago bridge latched on to one particular folder and always went there no matter what other processing I had done. No it just defaults to the absolute top of the tree view and I have to burrow down to what I was last doing. There should be a button or check box in preferences to fix this.
