Compressor custom settings will not save after reboot

I am having a problem with compressor removing my custom settings after I restart the program. I will save a custom format and it will show up in the custom folder however as soon as I close compressor and restart it shows 0 in the customer folder. I am guessing this is a bug in the new version but does anyone have any ideas? Also where do I submit a bug for compressor? Thanks

I, too, have been experiencing this for quite a while in Compressor 3. I upgraded to Compressor 4 this week, thinking that that, might solve my problem, but no. Same thing is happening in Compressor 4.
I have trashed my preferences, but still no luck.
very frustrating.

When I try to allow cookies, the security option of use custom settings will not save after I push the OK button.

Am unable to get to hotmail because cookies are blocked.

The "Use custom settings for history" setting allows to see the current history and cookie settings, but selecting that setting doesn't make any changes to history and cookie settings. 
Firefox shows the "Use custom settings for history" setting as an indication that at least one of the history and cookie settings is not the default to make you aware that changes were made. 
If all History settings are default then the custom settings are hidden and you see "Firefox will: (Never) Remember History". 
"Never Remember History" means that Private Browsing is active and "Always use private browsing mode" gets a check mark.

Various settings will not save after restart or reboot.

Macbook Pro 15 Early 2011 here. I keep modifying my dock and some of my trackpad settings, but everytime I restart my computer it goes back to the default state. Safari also opens with the same webpages everytime, as if it's stuck in the past or something. Is this a permissions issue? If not, what should I do to fix it?
Thanks in advance,
Ryan

What your describing with the Dock and trackpad sounds like either wrong permissions or corrupted preference files (.plist).
Download the free OnyX here and run all the first checks, then do ALL the cleaning and maintainence tasks and make SURE to reboot when your done!
http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/11582/onyx
Note: for Snow Leopard or earlier operating systems, scroll down you need to MATCH the OS X version your using.
After you do that run OnyX again and under the Verify is a preference file checker, check the box that says "show only corrupt .plist" files and run that.
Note all the corrupt .plist files, we will have to find them and delete them using the free Easy Find
http://www.devon-technologies.com/files/EasyFind.app.zip
Once you do those two things, reboot the machine and try to set your preferences again in the Dock and trackpad.
Another way is to open the Users/Library/Preferences folder and look for
com.apple.systempreferences.plist
com.apple.dock.plist
and deleting those files that way.
Far as Safari, that could be a feature to open all previous web pages, OnyX will clean that out for you when you ran it, but likely it will do it again when you use Safari as it's trying to be helpful or something should be able to disable it somewhere.
Tell us what your OS X version is and your MacBook Pro model, it's something like MacBook Pro 3,1 or 8,2 under your Apple menu > About this Mac > More information.

System Settings will not save my desired mouse scroll direction

I understand the Apple genius of wanting the Settings: Mouse: Scroll direction: Natural box to be checked. But **** it, this is MY iMac and I want the scroll direction to remain Unchecked, so the screen scrolls in the direction I’ve been used to for YEARS.
The problem is the System Settings will not save the unchecked scroll box. I have to return to the System Settings every time I log on to UN check the Scroll Direction: Natural box.
Will Apple ever fix this so that I, and others, can operate the scrolling as THEIR LONG-TIME USER sees fit?

Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

Do a backup.
Quit the application.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Restart, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.
Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.

Settings changed wont save after reboot

Any changes that i do in my Mac, wont save after reboot.
If i change the settings on my mouse (unchecking Scroll direction) next time i reboot, it will be checked again.
Any changes that i do to my Finder sidebar (like adding My Main Drive not visible, add downloads and pictures, change the foler view as columns) they are all gone after i reboot. Its getting freakin anoying. I Google for a solution but to find none.
When trying to opening Calender, it says that i dont have permission. I have gone to the application and checked and made sure that all acounts have r/w permissions.
On the Dock, i uninstalled an app and next reboot i will get a question mark, even tho i removed it before it comes back after the reboot.
Thanks for listening.

May sound silly, but are you sure you're not logging in as the 'Guest' user? What privileges does the user account you're using have? Check in
 > System Preferences... Users & Groups
that the account you're using is Admin. If you're using a Standard account, are parental controls enabled?
If you are admin, try resetting your permissions and removing the sys pref property file. Before you do that, backup your system and user data. Once you're backed up, open Terminal and copy/paste the following into the Terminal window:
rm ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
hit 'return'. If the prompt returns without an error (as it should), paste this
sudo chown -R `id -un` ~
hit 'return'. Enter your password as requested, but type carefully as it will be invisible while you do.
This will take a while, but after the command finishes (i.e., when the prompt returns), restart the mac.
After the restart, set the mac up the way you want, then test whether the problem is fixed by restarting again to see if your changes were kept.

Photos will not save after upgrade to iOS 7

Hi!
My iPhone 5 will not save the photos I take with the camera, or other apps.
After I take it and goes to the Camera Roll, there is nothing there.
This was not an issue with the iOS 6. And the settings are the same.
Everything is ok in Settings-Privacy-Photos. And in Settings-General-Privacy everything is Allowed.
Does anyone else have this problem?

Firefox will not start, after reboot.

For a few months now Firefox will not start after I reboot my computer. In order to get it to start I click the exe then must go into task manager kill it, click the exe again, kill it again then, from there it will typically start, but sometimes it may take one or two more trys. When clicking the exe firefox will appear in the task manager under processes but will will start with ~7% CPU usage, then quickly drop to zero every time until it does actually open and start. I have ran a full system recovery and started anew after reinstalling mozilla several times failed to fix the problem. I run virus and spyware checks often and come up clean, and also run Chrome as a default browser.
== This happened ==
A few times a week

Hello Tom.
You may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.

Firefox security settings will not save any of my passwords even when i click on the check box for saving passwords. please help.

When a pop-up comes up on the screen it will ask to save my password or not, well, I click on save password but it doesnt save any passwords even when I have the check box checked for remembering my passwords for certain sites it will not save any type of passwords at all. What am I doing wrong? I am using linux-mac OS user.

Simply because I don't think about using this option that takes more time to close... I always close ALL my windows with the X.
Firefox doesn't hang at exit also...
Using Firefox / Exit doesn't always save the bookmarks also... let's say there is 80% chances it will but not always... I noticed the first time I open firefox after booting the computer... Bookmarks won't be saved... But if I close firefox and re-open it, then it might save it... 50% guess...
I tried the safe mode, but since its closing firefox and re-open it... new saved bookmarks sometimes work, sometimes don't... it's pretty unstable...
Hopefully there is a solution to this problem in a near update, annoying... else I will simply reverse to firefox 3.6.16

CP will not save after Importing slides

CP 2 is a flakey one, often requiring 10 times the amount of
work to do the simplest of things. My project is two steps away
from CP app-so it shouldn't be getting lost. But, after importing
only 2 slides into my project it will not save. It just sits and
spins until I have to crash it using Task Manager. The project is
not corrupted-it just won't import slides.
For $600 Adobe should be prepared to release something a
little more stable than this. For all the problems of Camtasia
plug-ins, I'm thinking it's still a less aggravating alternative to
CP.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

Lion Wiki Server - Custom sidebar will not save

I have migrated a 10.6 Server installation with a fairly large wiki over to 10.7 Server. The upgrade seemed to go smoothly, however I have found that I cannot add a new custom sidebar. It allows me to click the button to create a new one, enter the Label and the Tag, but when I click "Save", it drops me back to the General section of the wiki and the custom sidebar was not saved.
I've seen other mentions of this issue, but the solutions did not solve the issue. I have 4 total wikis and it affects all of them. I also created a new wiki and the issue persists. Erasing and starting over is not an option for me at this point.
My Lion Server is bound to an OD Master and all the permissions seem to be fine. Anyone have any suggestions?

Ok, I made it happen! Here is what I did:
DELETED com.apple.net.racoon entry from Keychain
DELETED /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.RemoteAccessServers.plist
DELETED /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.ppp.l2tp.plist
In Server.app, turned off VPN Service with the big ON/OFF button
Rebooted computer
In Server.app, inputed the settings and switched to ON
The settings stayed on, the shared secret did not disappear and I was able to connect to the VPN from outside my network.
Sweet!

Your iPhone is in recoverty mode at the moment so to possibly get it back up and running you would need to do a restore as you have been trying. Follow the steps in the article below for the specific error messages you have been receiving. If after following all steps the issue remains book an appointment at a local Apple Retail Store to have the iPhone evaluated.

How to fix "OS X Lion user's custom preferences are not retained after reboots"?

How to quickly fix "many of user's custom preferences from within OS X Lion 10.7.x and/or MtLion 10.8.x are not retained after Mac reboots and/or log-offs"?

If many of the user’s custom preferences from within OS X Lion 10.7.x and/or Mountain Lion 10.8.x are not retained on Mac after reboots and/or log-offs, then implement this following QUICK FIX procedure:
Login to user’s OS X login profile… access & select the Finder pull-down menu Go… next select Library (just user’s Library only available when holding-down the Option key here within OS X Lion + MtLion)… find-select-and move the Preferences folder out from the overall user’s Library to the user’s Desktop area for temporary safe keeping. Then log-off user and/or reboot Mac… log-in as user, and reset all user’s custom preferences (System Preferences, Dock icons, etc. [OS X system now recreating all user’s login profile preferences]) according to their previous Desktop setup. Finally reboot after making all new user preferences setting changes… log-in again as user, and check to ensure that all user custom preferences now stays retained. If all OK, then you may move the corrupted Preferences folder from the user’s Desktop area to the Trash for final deletion.
*NOTE: Is this above-written QUICK FIX completely acceptable to Apple's OS X Lion + MtLion troubleshooting standards? So far this solution appears to have fixed a recent iMac user's issues with custom preferences.

HT200197 Menu will not appear after rebooting.

After reboot, the menu no longer shows up.
Only Computers and Settings icons appear.
Can anyone assist?

This indicates a Internet connectivity issue. Although you are the 3rd posting I've seen on this today so it may also be an issue with Apple's servers.

OSX will not start after reboot from single user mode

Hello,
Yesterday my iBook G4 was only starting in BASH mode. I've looked at discussions describing Kernel Panic and have followed the advice posted to the following post:
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=1553062#1553062
When I reboot I get past the language setup and the boot progress screen/progress bar gets almost complete before going to a continuously stalling/reloading blue screen.
When I try the command:
rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
described in one of the responses I get a 'No such file or directory' message
I assume that as when I try:
cd /System/Library/CoreServices/Setup\ Assistant.app/Contents/MacOS
It returns '-rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 58912 16 Aug 21:10 Setup Assistant'
it is the file that is missing.
As the discussion thread I was following seemed to go off on a bunch of other tangents (and was completed), I am hoping somebody might have suggestions for my specific problem under this new discussion.
