Do not want userids stored

one of my web sites has a userid and password to log in. my userid keeps appearing in the userid field. I do not want it displayed. I went and deleted the cookie or that site and even blocked the site from using cookies. I enabled delete cookies after closing firefox. And when I deleted the cookie it seemed to pop right back up without going back to the web site.

thank you, that worked. I never would have thought of trying something as simple as that in a million years. I think that once before I got rid of them by completely deleting history, cookies and cache, but then I lost my type ahead for url's that I used.
I was able to delete the entries in the list however the next time I went back onto the web page my new entry was there. is there a way to prevent auto complete from working? I'll go ahead and try to find the solution myself but if you already know please post it. thanks again.
got it. I guess part of the problem was knowing the nomenclature for this feature. if I had searched for auto complete I might have found the solution myself.

  • My itunes library is stored on an external hard drive. How do I set it up to be able to use with my work macbook pro? I do not want it stored on my laptop.

    How do I store my itunes library on an external hard drive and access it on my macbook pro? I do not want to store my library on my macbook because it is a work computer and do not want to take up storage space there. I know it can be done because I had it that one on a previous laptop but I cannot remember how I did it and would really appreciate a quick step by step process. I do not mind if it seems elementary. I am admitting my lack of knowledge and would really appreciate basic instructions. Thank you for anything anyone can do to help.

    iTunes>Preferences (Cmd+,)>Advanced
    Choose the Ext HD (and the appropriate folder) as the location for your library.

  • Is there any possible way to speak to a person about fixing my firefox browser? It will not open and I do not want to lose the information stored there.

    My firefox browser will not open, so I can not try most of the solutions recommended. I do not want to lose stored information such as bookmarks and pass codes so would unstalling and reinstalling cause me to lose that information? I need to speak to a person to help with this, but do not know how to go about it. Should I be contacting Norton or Mozilla?

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".
    :[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.

  • How do i see what photos are stored in my icloud.  I cannot do this without installing 8.0 or above which i cannot do as i do not have enough space on my iphone.  I do not want to delete the pics to make enough room to install 8.0 without checking

    how do i see what photos are stored in my icloud.  I cannot do this without installing 8.0 or above which i cannot do as i do not have enough space on my iphone.  I do not want to delete the pics to make enough room to install 8.0 without checking first that the pics are saved.  Thanks

    Good day AMELIASARAH,
    One resolution to your issue would be to update your iPhone using iTunes on your computer rather than over the air. This requires much less space on the iPhone as most of the work is done by the computer. See this article for how to do it -
    If you need more space for an iOS update - Apple Support
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Safe computing,

  • Why does Apple not want me to know where my files are?

    There is one aspect that I find absolutely ridiculous and frustrating on Mac-OS. When I'm in Apple applications, it is impossible to find out where the file I'm working on is. For example, I have multiple files in my system, in different directories, lets say direcotories AA and BB and the file is called FooBar.txt. I open one of them in TextEdit. Great. Now I want to know which file I'm editing, AA/FooBar.txt or BB/FooBar.txt.
    Traditionally, I would go to File and do a "Save As" and devine where the file is by where TextEdit thinks I need to save a new version of the file. Unfortunately, this is no longer available in Lion.
    Okay, I understand that Mac is now doing verisions and the "Save As" was a user hack ... but it worked. I have tried to go to the Files->Properties, no luck this is just metadata about the contents of the file entered by the user, not system metadata about where the file is located, its size, owner, etc. I do not want to have to make a Dupicate of the file just to find out where when I do the save its going to put the file. I don't want a duplicate, all I want to know is where is the file I'm currently looking at.
    I know this is all part of the mis-guided Apple idea that I shouldn't care about where my files are stored ala iPad and Apple iCloud and that I can find my files using Finder, but the reality of the situation is ... I do care where my files are stored. The files afterall belong to me not to Apple and Apple does allow me to have a directory tree structure which I choose to use to organize myself.
    Yes, I know that Finder is wonderful and to unsophisticated users, this is all they need. But for those of us who are more sophisticated, we want-to and need-to know where our files are. And, yes, we will have many files with duplicate names.
    As for Finder, I would like to be able to have a column dispolayed that lets me see where the files it found actual are. Then I want to sort on this. As far as I know, the only way to do this is to go to finder, type in the name of the file, then choose the Show all in Finder and then click on each file which then shows me a directory breadcrumbs on the botom of the screen. Again, this might be acceptable to the unsophisticated user, this is very awkward to the sophisticated user. Example, I find a file called xml.config. Great. I now want to not only edit the file but to open up a Terminal in the directoy where I found the file xml.config. Again, I know that a Terminal is not a thing an unsophisticated user wants-to or needs-to do. However, this is a feater of Mac-OS and I want to use it. yes, I can co through the Unix CD command and ultimately get there, but what a pain!!
    So, hopefully, all you very sophisticated users will just point me to the right settings, swtiches and commands to make my life easier or that your designers will try to look at the sophisticated use cases and provide us with new tools, commands and options to make our lives easier. At the present, these frustrations remind me of the Microsoft ... we know beter .. attitude. So please, proove me wrong ;-)

    While most likely not of interest to you, Spotlight can also tell you where the files it finds are located
    Hover the mouse pointer over the name, and press Command-Option and the path to the file will be displayed.
    As for opening a terminal session in the directory where a file is located, there is Applescripts that do just that as well as specific features in Lion/Mountain Lion terminal:

  • IPhoto is not showing photos stored in albums in the last week, and when I add recent photos, they don't show, or show as black.

    iPhoto is not showing photos stored in albums in the last week, and when I add recent photos, they don't show, or show as black. What's happening ?  I show an incompatible upgrade available for OSX Maveriks, which I have not yet installed.

    What version of iPhoto are you using?  Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • How to I delete all contact on my iPhone at once. These are contacts ABOVE the contact folder that says From My Mac. I do not want to erase all of the other settings and content from my iPhone -- just the contacts.

    How to I delete all contact on my iPhone at once? These are contacts ABOVE the contact folder that says, "From My Mac."
    Someone said create a new empty folder on the computer and sync to that -- didn't work .
    Another person said, "Reset information in settings to restore to the default." That would erase ALL of the conetent I have on the phone and I do not want to erase all of the other settings and content from my iPhone -- just the contacts.
    There has to be a better way than gong through and deleting one-by-one.

    Go into Settings...Mail, Calendar and Contacts and siwtch off the Contacts section from the account in question.
    The phone should ask you if you want to keep or erase the contacts stored on you phone.
    However, if they aren't synched to anything and only exist on your iPhone, you'll have to delete them all one by one

  • HT4910 I do not want to backup my email, how do I remove this from the icloud backup?

    I do not want to back up my emails to iCloud, how do I deselect my emails to free up space on my iPhone?

    You can't deselect it.  Your mail isn't stored in your iCloud backup, it's stored on the iCloud mail server and the space used is charged to your storage plan.  If you want to delete some of your mail so that it takes up less space you can do that either on your phone or on icloud.com, but if you delete it, it will be deleted from the server and therefore from all of your devices that access your mail account as well.

  • If you log out of your apple ID on your iPad and let someone else use it and they use facetime.  How come it shows my facetime history and not theirs?   I do not want them to have access to my history.  How can I prevent that and they can see their own?

    If you log out of your apple ID on your iPAD mini and let someone else use it and they use facetime.  How come it shows my facetime history and not theirs?   I do not want them to have access to my history.  How can I prevent that and they can see their own?  Or is the history associated with the iPAD mini itself and not the actual icloud user account?

    You are logging out from
    Settings -> FaceTime, right?
    My guess would be though, that the FaceTime history is stored locally on the device, so anyone using it will see the entire device history (I cannot imagine that FaceTime uploads the history to an Apple server anywhere - I'm sure it is just logged locally on the device - based on my iPhone and iPad show completely different histories, for example).

  • I do not want to pay for extra storage,But i do want a backup to remain on my iMac

    I am happy to use icloud for 5gb of free data . As I neared the maximum amount I was e mailed by Apple to ask if i wanted to buy more
    cloud space . Not wishing to do that but threatened with loosing my ability to use my me.com e mail account I decided to delte some data stored in the cloud.
    Before i did that i went into iTunes on my iMac and backed up my iPhone.
    Having done that went back into manage iCloud storage and unticked the box that said back up data ( this was by far the largest amount ).
    I am worried by the warning that suggests that data on my iMac will be deleted if proceed .I do not want to delete data on my Imac as i wish to have a back up somewhere . Is this error message incorrect ? . Screen shot below :

    iCloud backs up your iOS device (not your Mac) automatically. You can remove the backup:
    http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mm122d3ef202
    and it will not back up again. This will not affect a backup made using iTunes. The notice you see refers to calendars, contacts, iWork documents and so on, which live on the server and are read from there by your Mac, and so will obviously disappear if you turn iCloud off altogether (which you don't need to do) or turn off Documents (which you don't need to do either).

  • ICloud I do not want to share some documents in the cloud.  I f I turn off iCloud it says I will delete everything already there. How do I know what is already in the cloud

    iCloud I do not want to share some documents in the cloud.  I f I turn off iCloud it says I will delete everything already there. How do I know what is already in the cloud

    Thank you.  When I go into system preferences, then iCloud, then manage, it does not let me view what is there only says:  ex: The documents stored inside Pages take up 623.3KB and gives me the option to: Delete Documents and Data.  It does not let me see what files are there.   I think it is time for me to go back to my apple store and get more acquainted with iCloud and storage and how to manage it.  I had some issues with my mac about a month ago after downloading an updated version.  The issue was related to syncing, iCloud, iTunes, calendar and storage.  I am nervous about loosing more documents, photos, etc..from my Mac.  Thank you for the information.
