Cookies are not being removed

I have tried several times and used different methods of removing the cookies and other website data from Safari without success. I have Reset Safari and gone through the Privacy tab within Preferences. Is there anything else I need to know how to edit my website data history.

Hi..
The cookiees issue with Safari has been long discussed on these forums and so far Apple hasn't engineered a better way to handle cookie maangement. And Apple discontinued support for Safari for Windows.
You'd be better off using Firefox > Install Firefox on Windows | Firefox Help

Cookies are not being cleared when I close the browser although the option is set. Any suggestions?

Under Options; Privacy I have Clear history when Firefox closes ticked and within the Settings for Clearing History I have Cookies ticked. Cookies are not being cleared when I close the browser. Windows 7, SP1 x64

If clearing the cookies doesn't help then it is possible that the file cookies.sqlite that stores the cookies is corrupted.
Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete cookies.sqlite-journal and cookies.txt, if they exist, in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder] in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.

HT5568 cookies are not being blocked

This ***** so bad, the cookies on Safari are not being blocked on my Mac Lion 10. 7.5? What's going on. I can be on for 2 minutes and not visit a website but still have 45 cookies including one saved to my local cache. I though Macs were supposed to be better than this.

Do you have a question?
If it's about blocking cookies, then may I assume you have disabled all cookies via Safari preferences; that the browser is set to block cookies always?
If you're concerned about tracking (I don't know why you're asking about cookies), you could choose to enable and use Private Browsing option.
Realize too that there are other and very effective ways to track clients without cookies; whether using Flash Cookies or so-called super-cookies or via EFF's Panopticlick techniques.

ASA-5585-X 8.4(6)5 Idle connections are not being removed according to timeout settings

Hi,
Just a quick question if anybody has run into a bug where the ASAs "timeout" settings are not being applied to idle connections.
It seems that our ASA running the software level 8.4(6)5 is not tearing down connections. This mainly seems to be a problem in one Security Context where there are around 300k UDP connections (related to VOIP phones) that are not being torn down. Idle timers on the connections are going as far as 700 hours. Common to all the UDP connections is also the fact that only 19 Bytes of data has been transmitted on the connection built on the firewall. I am not sure what the purpose of these UDP Connections is as both the source and destination port is a random high port.
I was not able find any Bug ID which description would match the situation I am seeing. I did not see anything in the release notes of 8.4(7) or its interrim release either that would list thing kind of bug.

Hi Jouni,
This caveat seems to be the closest match as 8.4.6 is the affected ASA code.
CSCuh13899
Symptoms:-
Some connection may not removed even after reaching idle timeout.

You can upgrade to the next stable ASA code as suggested in the referred document.

Suddenly my online IDs, and many website preferences, and/or cookies are not being saved despite trying all the various privacy settings

In the past week, perhaps since I downloaded a new Firefox update my cookies are getting deleted every time I close or restart Firefox. I have cleared the cache and my tracking setting is at "Do not tell sites anything about my tracking" although I have also tried the other tracking settings as well. I have "accept cookies from sites" checked although I have "accept third-party cookies" on Never. I have "Keep Unti"l at "they expire" I have removed all extensions. This just suddenly started happening about a week ago although I can't recall changing any settings or installing any other software. The problem only seems to affect Firefox as Safari still remembers my online IDs etc. Is there a bug in the most recent Firefox update for Mac desktops?

Note that this can be caused by a corrupted cookies.sqlite file.
If it happens again then try to rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete other present cookie files like cookies.sqlite-journal in the Firefox profile folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.

Movies I purchase from wish list are not being removed from the wish list

I have a few movies that I bought on apple tv from my wishlist. Issue is with some movies that after I purchase, they still show on the wish list and I cant remove. Anyone know of a fix for this?

Nobody has a solution to this? Apple?!

Cookies are not saved (login info, cookie acceptance, bank cookies etc)

Cookies are not being saved. examples: if I log into the telegraph site the login does not persist, if I accept the cookies from The Register I get asked again, If I set my location on the BBC news site it resets, the same with my bank website.
I have tried:
disabling all add-ons
resetting firefox
uninstalling and reinstalling firefox (no add-ons at all)
deleting my user config files
deleting anything to do with firefox and reinstalling
unsyncing firefox
I'm tearing my hair out now lol. It's making it impossible to use firefox (especialy with banks that set a cookie to recognise the pc etc)
Any ideas what could be wrong or what else to try to locate the problem?

In case you are using "Clear history when Firefox closes":
*do not clear the Cookies
*do not clear the Site Preferences
*Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history": [X] "Clear history when Firefox closes" > Settings
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Clear+Recent+History
Note that clearing "Site Preferences" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, software installation, passwords, and other website specific data.
Clearing cookies will remove all specified (selected) cookies including cookies with an allow exception that you would like to keep.
It is possible that the cookies.sqlite file that stores the cookies is corrupted if clearing cookies doesn't work.
Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete other present cookies files like cookies.sqlite-journal in the Firefox profile folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.

Cookies are not read

Dear sirs,
I develop a web-site which uses cookies. A captcha and log-in state of the site depend on cookies. For unknown reasons the cookies are not read programmatically now by the site. Using an add-on, I see that cookies are being written, but not read. Everything worked just before I updated FF to 35.0
I tested my site in major browser, everything works fine in IE, Safari, Opera, Opera Mobile and MS Page Inspector. But in FF and Chrome cookies are not read.
If you want me to email you my cookies.sqlite, I can do it, it is just around 1MB. Thanks.

Does document.cookie show these cookies if you paste this command in the command line in the Web Console (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer)?
You can enable the Storage tab in the Web Console by clicking the toolbar settings (gear) icon and use the storage inspector to check what cookies are created.
*https://developer.mozilla.org/Tools/Tools_Toolbox#Settings
You can check in the Web Console if there are (JavaScript) error messages about this issue.
You can remove all data stored in Firefox from a specific domain via "Forget About This Site" in the right-click context menu of an history entry ("History > Show All History" or "View > Sidebar > History") or via the about:permissions page.
Using "Forget About This Site" will remove all data stored in Firefox from that domain like bookmarks, cookies, passwords, cache, history, and exceptions, so be cautious and if you have a password or other data from that domain that you do not want to lose then make sure to backup this data or make a note.
You can't recover from this 'forget' unless you have a backup of the involved files.
It doesn't have any lasting effect, so if you revisit such a 'forgotten' website then data from that website will be saved once again.

URLs are not being recognized inside PDF

URL links inside a PDF that I've created in InDesign CS5 are not being recognized.
I have email and website URLs embedded inside a PDF that was created in InDesign. These links are being recognized and I can click on them in Chrome, Opera, IE or Safari on the Mac. Eg, hovering over the mailto or http URLs the cursor turns to a hand and the links are clickable. Firefox is the only browser that does not recognize ANY links in the PDF. The cursor doesn't change to a hand instead it just remains as the standard text insertion cursor. The links are not clickable.
Firefox 26.0
Adobe Reader plugin 11.0.4.63 (latest as of today)

Current Firefox versions have enabled a built-in PDF Viewer that doesn't have all features that other PDF readers like the Adobe Reader have or may not function properly otherwise.
You can change the action for Portable Document Format (PDF) from Preview in Firefox to use another application like the Adobe Reader or set to Always Ask in "Firefox > Options/Preferences > Applications".
You can set the pdfjs.disabled pref to true on the about:config page to disable the build-in PDF viewer.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
You can check the value of the plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types pref on the about:config page and remove the application/pdf part if present or reset the pref to the default via the right-click context menu if you want to display PDF documents in Firefox with another application (i.e. not the built-in PDF Viewer).

Flash CC crashes after publishing iOS app + publish settings are not being saved to file

I have two issues:
1. Flash CC crashes every time I publish an iOS app
2. My Publish Settings are not being saved
1. Flash CC crashes every time I publish an iOS app
Since yesterday Flash CC keeps crashing right after I publish an iOS app. The app is published correctly though. I tried everything from restarting my MAC, reinstalling Flash, removing the folder "Flash CC 2014" inside Application Support/Adobe. But all this did not work.
2. My Publish Settings are not being saved
Since the first day I installed Flash CC, it did not save my publish settings along with the .fla-file. I never had this issue with Flash CS 5.5. This was not a very big issue, but now every time I publish an app and Flash CC crashes I have to fill in all the publish settings manually. Now I'm getting frustrated. Even saving my settings as a preset, storing it inside a folder and importing it again, won't help. Then I will get the message: "Import failed: invalid profile file."
Can please anyone help me with these issues? It is quite time consuming to continuously enter the settings manually after every crash.
Thanks!

Mouse settings are not being saved

I just did a clean install of Lion (10.7.5) on a new SSD in a mac pro 1,1 and am having problems with my mouse settings. The settings are not being saved. When I change any of the buttons, nothing changes.
It's not a hardware problem with the mouse. If I boot up to my previous os drive, lion 10.7.5, the mouse settings are correct and function properly.

FOrgot to add, this is the basic wired mouse. I've also tried the wireless bluetooth mighty mouse as well with the exact same results.
I've tried removing the plist files with no success

Alan, how you're doing?
You already know issue is not with the email account, since it's working on another devices.
Now you have to define whether it is a user specific or system wide issue.
Create another user account through system prefereces > users and groups. Try to set up account on the new test user.
If it works, get back to your main account, open mail application, go to menu > Window > open activity and connection doctor (Make sure you organize these tools in a way that allows you to see both mail windows and activity/ connection doctor... Now, try to send a test email and you will see where the issue is.
Then...
Go to mail preferences > select your email account > click the - button to remove it and + to readd account.
Fill your full name, email address and password. Now, hold down option key and press continue... Insert incoming and outgoing information.
Any doubts, feel free to ask.

Per-service SID's are not being granted correct permissions

Hi,
I had posted this here :
https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/770984/per-service-sid-s-are-not-being-granted-correct-permissions, but no response as yet.
When installing SQL 2012 (on a VMWare VM), based on the following article :
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143504(v=sql.110), I have noticed that the SQL per service SIDs are not being granted the correct permissions. From the initial install, the following is what was observed (the red x's being permissions that
should have been granted but were not).
When re-installing and changing from specifying a domain account, to the default values, during set-up, the 4 service SIDs that were not added to 'Log on as a Service' initially were then correctly granted permission, but the other 4 in 'Bypass traverse
checking', 'Adjust Memory Quotas for a process' and 'Impersonate a Client after authentication' were still not added.
When running a repair on this install, 'NT Service\MSSQLFDLauncher' was then granted the correct permissions, but 'NT SERVICE\MsDtsServer110' was still missing 'Bypass traverse checking' and 'Impersonate a Client after authentication'.
This also resulted in the installation of Reporting Services - Native failing in the original installation with 'Attempted to perform an unauthorized operation'.
If anyone has recently installed SQL 2012, can you check (via gpedit.msc) that the correct 'User Right Assignment' was granted to the per Service SIDs as per
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143504(v=sql.110) ?

Have you resolved this yet? Group policy for the OU with my desktop removes all SQL per-service rights. If group policy is your issue, I'd be interested in how some are retained.

Cookies turned off and cleared, but 3rd party cookies are still being shared after Firefox v16.0.1 update

after firefox updated from v15.0.1 to v16.0.1 on Friday (10/19/12), collusion v0.22 shows 3rd party cookies being shared, and a lot of them. I have firefox in "always use private browsing mode", with cookies not allowed, in addition there are no entries in "exception" or in "show cookies". The check boxes for cookies and 3rd party cookies are NOT checked.
This behavior never happened before the update!
I re-installed v15.0.1, but it is still happening.
Rana full sys scan with the latest Norton Security, which found nothing. Tried a few others too, so I'm semi-certain that my system is not infected.
System: Acer 5251-1245 with windows 7 (current patch levels up to date).
What changed with v16.0.1 update? Did Collusion change?
why are 3rd party cookies being shared, and how is it doing it?
Is there a way to check to see if other browsers have the same issues? e.g. chrome, explorer (yuck!), safari, etc....
I've really liked Firefox, but I am afraid to use it, especially to shop online or any financial stuff (banks, credit card payments, etc.).
Maybe I was better off in blissful ignorance before installing collusion earlier this year, but I only ever saw the 3rd party cookie sharing when I had "cookies" turned on without turning on "Accept third-party cookies".
Again, what changed?

only add-on extensions are "Collusion v0.22" and "Adblock Plus Pop-up Addon v0.4".
The issue never happened until Friday 10/19/12 after the Firefox v16.0.1 update, and was noticed by me on Saturday while using the Firefox to check my work schedule (which sets only its cookie and does not share, but it did and got me worried).
Still wondering if Collusion updated too, and now I'm seeing new behavior.
I do not want to share cookies, which is why I turn them off, and never turn on "share third party cookies".
Do I need to stop using Firefox? :(

My Usernames Passwords are not being saved, the pop up question about saving a password or not never shows. Please let me know how I can fix this problem.

My usernames and passwords are not being saved. I never get the prompt:
"Do you want Firefox to remember the password?"
I've tried the help screens but I can't find the answer. Please let me know how this can be fixed.
Thanks,
Doug Clarke

Make sure that you have set Firefox to remember passwords.
* Tools > Options > Security: Passwords: "Remember passwords for sites"
Make sure that you not run Firefox in (permanent) [[Private Browsing]] mode.
* You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
* To see all History and Cookie settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting Firefox will: Use custom settings for history
* Uncheck: [ ] "Permanent Private Browsing mode"
