Cannot save my proxy settings

When I try to enter any proxy settings in the network section of the control panel, they do not save. regardless of whether or not I enter automatic proxy configuration file location (for a PAC file) or via the web proxy.
I click 'Ok' then 'Apply' but the settings do not get saved. Am I doing something wrong? This appears to work on my friends MBP.
If anyone has any insight into this problem I would be grateful. It means I cannot use the laptop at my university, which is a bit of a problem.

Cannot save Adobe PDF Settings File error

I'm using Acrobat X Pro with Windows 8. I've downloaded a .joboptions file to add to Distiller. I select Settings > Add Adobe PDF settings, browse to the file's location, select the file, and click Open.
Distiller says, "Cannot save Adobe PDF Settings File."
In the Start menu, I right-clicked Adobe Acrobat X Pro and selected Properties > Compatibility > Run this program as Administrator. It didn't help. Suggestions welcome.

I downloaded it from the linked website, and installed it successfully in Distiller 10. I don't know of a "Repair" utility for Distiller, so maybe you should uninstall and install Acrobat X in order to reinstall Distiller 10.

I cannot save the graphical settings permanantly

In one of the DP planning book, I cannot see the graphical view beyond year2009.
When he changes the maximum date to 2010 and apply those settings it shows view
till 2010. But these changes in the settings doesn't get saved permanantly. When he goes
to tabular form and again on graphics the saved settings go away.
Is it related to authorization?
Is it that I am not authorized to change the settings.
Need your suggestion on this

Hi,
It looks like you have authorisation issue only.
I tried your scenario by saving my graphical settings and then
tried opening again, the earlier saved setting was
restored.
Check & maintain the related authorisation object whether exists
for your user id and then retry the same

Cannot save Basic privacy settings

Hi,
I'm trying to save "Only allow people in my Contact list to contact me" under the Basic options in the Privacy options. When I press save and return to check that that choice has been retained the setting is back to "Allow anyone to contact me". Meanwhile in the Advanced options similar choices save without any problem. However, I continue to receive notices from unknown people wanting to become contacts.
I have tried one solution of signing out for 5 seconds and then signing back in, but this didn't work.
I use W7 x64 and Skype 6.10.0.104. on 2 PCs and I have an Android device running skype too, a Samsung Galaxy S3 and occasionally a Samsung Galaxy Note.
Your help is much appreciated,

There are no Privacy settings that can prevent people from sending new contact invitations to you. Privacy settings have only effect on chat messages and calls, but not on new contact invitations.

Cannot save Port Forwarding Settings

I have a Wireless-N Home Router WRT150N (firmware upgraded to v1.01.9 ).
When I try to set Port forwarding, I get the screen "Settings are successful. Continue". When I click Continue, the Port forwarding page comes back with empty fields, like if I did not enter anything. I tried to reset the Router twice. No result.
The same thing happens for Port Range and Single Port forwarding... Impossible to save any settings in there...
Any suggestion welcome...

Correction: caching was not the problem.
The problem was that before posting on this forum, I did not enter a existing IP for destination (left the default 192.168.1.0. What got me confused is that the Linksys interface comes up with a message saying that the settings have been successfully updated, even though nothing was done for lack of an existing destination IP, hence the virgin table served back.
I think Linksys should revise the GUY to alert the user when the destination IP is not properly set rather than pretending to have registered a new non functional setting.

Cannot save 'Global Storage Settings' in Flash 10- Win7

I am having a rough time with flash at the moment. I am using Windows 7, Google Chrome, and Flash 10.
Lately, half of the videos and games I try to use are not working. I was advised that it was because the website could not save to my computer, but when I try to select "Allow third party flash content to store data on your computer", it does not let me even fill in the checkbox.
I even attempted to uninstall and reinstall flash, but it is unsuccessful. So.. how can I fix this? If someone could sort of walk me through it (I have no idea about some of these advanced solutions I've seen), I'd be very grateful.

I have the same problem (except I'm in Windows XP Home, Version 5.1.2600 Service Pack 3).
I can't tick that box "Allow third party flash content..." or keep that slider where I want it (100KB) as it is always back at "None" if I exit the broswer and return to those settings.
I have been referred from this thread:http://forums.adobe.com/message/3559075#3559075
Okay, I'm just updating my post. My Global Storage Settings are now working. Yes!
I did what was said (%appdata%\Adobe, etc) in Windows Explorer this time instead of Windows Internet Explorer (dah!) and it's all good. Maybe the person who started this thread made the same mistake? If so, Windows Explorer is accessible from, Start > All Programs > Accessories

Settings: firefox will not accept easy hideIP. cannot get firefox proxy settings changed.

easyhideIP will not be accepted by firefox and the prosxy settings of firefox will not change. They are set to auto accept but that does not work, the reload feature does not work. I have uninstalled firefox and reinstalled and the problem persists. I have no problem with IE 8.

If you aren't able to connect in Firefox, but can connect with other programs, the most common cause is a firewall. See [[Firewalls]] for instructions on configuring firewalls. (Make sure you configure all firewalls that are installed)
Another possibility is that you are in offline mode. Make sure "Work offline" in the File menu is ''unchecked''.
For other causes, see [[Error loading web sites]]

Re: Cannot save 'Global Storage Settings' in Flash 10- Win7

Hi,
I'm having the same issues. I'm using Win7 Home Premium, Firefox 5.0.1 and Flash 10,3,183,5. I experienced problems loading embedded Soundcloud-tracks (ie in Facebook it develops from the square with the play button to the player but after that I couldn't click anything) and various flash driven videos (300: player initialization failed: error: error #2134).
After some time I came to the point where I wanted to change the Global Storage Settings, I headed to http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager03.htm l and tried checking the checkbox but nothing happened. None of my settings are saved as well.
I tried de- and re-installing Flash Player and Firefox in various version-combinations but nothing helped. I tried the %appdata%-hint (in WINDOWS-explorer) but it didn't help. It works on my guest profile that normally isn't in use.
I hope I can reopen the thread, maybe there's help 'cause I'm sick of all that searching.

Microsoft Outlook 2010 & 2013 cannot set automatic reply settings

Hello,
We cannot seem to set automatic reply's within outlook 2010 & 2013. We have an exchange server 2010. We
can setup automatic reply through OWA absolutely fine. The error that we receive is 'Your automatic reply settings cannot be displayed because the server is currently unavailable. Try again later.
However we can setup out of office on any other office version below 2010 fine. We have run through
a number of tests and have come to the conclusion that the auto discover service is not configured correctly. I have been told to run through the following
"We need to make sure the IIS service is assigned to the certificate which includes mail.mydomainname.co.uk
name:
Enable-ExchangeCertificate -Thumbprint 62C247B3BD081D0A8B074D4A928A76E6DA3BABBA -Services
POP,IMAP,SMTP,IIS
Then restart IIS service
to apply the changes.
If the user is connect
to mailbox from external environment as your test results, it is recommended to add the autodiscover.mydomain.co.uk name in your certificate with IIS service. If so, the autodiscover
service can be accessed successfully in your posted second steps(https:/autodiscover.mydomain.co.uk/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml). Alternatively, if you don’t want to change your certificate configuration, we need to create a new SRV record for mail.mydomainname.co.uk
to make your autodiscover succeed in last steps of Srv Record lookup method".
So I followed this and opened Exchange Managemnet Shell and ran the following.....
'Enable-ExchangeCertificate -Thumbprint 62C247B3BD081D0A8B074D4A928A76E6DA3BABBA -Services POP,IMAP,SMTP,IIS'
The following output was displayed:

I opened up the Exchange Management

Hi,
We have this problem with some of our users, in that they get the server unavailable error when trying to activate the out of office.
In our case this is because the Proxy is blocking the connection from the PC to the Exchange, so we just go to Internet Options - Connections - LAN Settings - Advanced (under proxy server) then just add *.domain.com into the Exceptions box at the bottom.
This seems to resolve the issue and allow them to set their out of office. The only reason this reoccurs for these users is because their roaming profile for some reason won't save the proxy settings, which is a different issue.
Hope this helps.

Firefox won't save privacy cookie settings.

I had a virus infect one of my home PCs. It came up as "Windows 7 Security 2012" and I could not do anything without that virus popping all kinds of authentic looking security screens.
I finally wound up using another of my PCs (which I am using now), to go into microsoft website, and download a scanner and malicious software removal programs onto a flash drive, which I then ran in safe mode on the infected PC. It seems to have worked, but now the problem I have in Firefox is as follows:
I cannot save privacy cookie settings. I don't want to set cookies on and I uncheck them in the privacy window. However, everytime I exit and reopen Firefox, the cookies are reverted to check marks. I tried the steps of deleting prefs files, and that did not work. I also upgraded to latest level of Firefox because it had been a while since I updated the browser.
None of that worked, and everytime I use Firefox, first thing I do is set privacy and turn cookies, which is too late anyway because I have to also delete the cookies that were set as Firefox was coming up.
This is the first time I have had problem with Firefox, but I also realize it could be because of the virus. I don't know what else to do because I upgraded Firefox and tried the suggested support steps for "Preferences not saved". I hate this also because I have to resort to Windows Internet Explorer, something I absolutely loath. Please help!!!!!

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.
See:

Firefox will not save my Connections settings, so opens on manual proxy every time, rather than No Proxy?

I'm using Firefox 4.01 and it will not save my connections settings when I set them to "No Proxy" keeps defaulting to manual therefore it wont load any pages until I change it to "No Proxy" which I have to do every time I open firefox.

See:
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved

Web page will not open. "Safari cannot open page. I've deleted cache, reset, gone into proxy settings--(will not allow to go further--needs)

I am trying to figure out why some pages will not open. I've tried proxy settings and it does not allow me to check boxes. Certain pages--like groupon stuff--will not open. Is there an easy fix? Will you hep? Thanks

I am so sorry to hear that you cannot open some web pages by typing a URL.
Please supply some specific examples, so other Readers can try them to see what the problem might be. Trial and error is impossible.

Cannot save VPN settings on playbook

Hello, I'm running OS 2.0.1.358. I can set all VPN settings but when I hit save or save and connect they both go dim and it never saves. I've tried rebooting and setting up VPN multiple times, for some reason I cannot save any VPN profiles. Has anyone seen this before? I've checked around and cannot find anything. Thanks,

Upgraded to beta OS and then it worked like a charm... Don't know why???
