Early 08 MBPro-TCP/IP settings are not saved

On my home wireless network I have MAC address filtering enabled and broadcast SSID disabled. All MAC addresses are entered in the router's filter. An early 08 MBPro does not retain network settings for Verizon router on the network. When I look at the TCP/IP settings in network prefs I see they are nothing like other computers on my home network. If I click "assist me" then "diagnostics" in Airport setup I get walked through a process which allows me to choose the network I want to join. There is a list of available networks which does not include mine (since SSID is disabled) and a button which allows me to choose closed network, which I take. After entering my network's ID and WEP password I finally get connected and get a message that my connection is OK. Problem is, when I put the computer to sleep or restart I can't reconnect and the old settings which don't work reappear. It appears that the TCP/IP settings are not being saved. Could this be some corrupted preference of does it sound like a hardware problem? Thanks for any insights.

Odd. You may be able to repair this with the 10.5.7 Combo Update This is a fuller install, as opposed to an incremental "delta" update so it should overwrite any files that are damaged or missing. It does not matter if you have applied it before.
Remember to Verify Disk before update and repair permissions after update from /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility.
Oh, and please be sure to re-boot your modem and router.

Settings are not saving

Hi Guys
I am fairly new to my iMac (since Christmas). Everything was working perfect and now I am noticing that my settings are not saving. Some examples are:
1. I set it so my pictures can be shared with other users. The other users of this mac still cannot pull up the pictures in their iPhoto.
2. I have the settings for software update set to check monthly. Every time I wake up my computer it checks for updates automatically.
3. The log in settings are set to log in without a password every time I wake up the mac and it still requires a password.
What is going on??? It is so frustrating, please please help???

So even after opening iPhoto, there is no file "com.apple.iPhoto.plist" in your ~/Library/Preferences folder (that is in your HOME folder, NOT the Library folder at the top level of your hard drive)?
If so, there is an issue with permissions to write to your ~/Library/Preferences folder. Go up one level to your ~/Library folder (again, the one in your HOME folder), click once on Preferences folder, then chose menu File>Get Info. At the bottom of the Get Info window, next to your user name, the Privilege column should say Read & Write.
If it doesn't say "Read & Write" next your name, you have to change it so that it does. Click on the lock icon in the lower right of the "Get Info" window, enter admin user name and password. Change the Privilege column next to your user name to "Read & Write." Then click on the little gear icon at the very bottom of the Get Info and select "Apply to enclosed items."
You might want to go through that procedure even if it does say "Read & Write" just to make sure, because it really sounds like you have a problem with permissions in the Preferences folder.

Sorry Photoshop -- Problems solved -- I read the details -- turns out you need to make changes with no files open for the preferences to apply to all files.

Mail settings are not saved any more

Hi,
after my mailbox structure has crashed, I tried to reset Mail as explained in this answer: https://discussions.apple.com/message/22302114#22302114
After restarting Mail all settings were deleted (as expected) and I set up my accounts and settings again. Then I recognized that the settings are not saved any more. I tried some times but Mail didn't save the settings.
I hope there is a chance to fix this problem.
Thanks for help.

Thanks for linked document but I find it funny and someone rude that the article assumes that EVERYONE knows the lingo used - i.e. Profile Folder is in "%APPDATA%\Mozilla\" . Where the hell is that???? Jesus, it's much easier to switch to Chrome.

Form settings are not saved on one client

Hello,
What are possible reasons that form settings like size and position are not saved.
I have one client with SBO 8.8 PL15 installed. On this client this settings are not saved.
So the user has to resize the forms everytime he opens it.
I tried it myself with his SBO user directly on the server and a terminal-server. No problems there, all settings
are saved even if i switch between the systems.
If i am correct these settings are saved in the UserPrefs field in the OUSR table.
Any ideas?
Thank you for all your help.

Hi,
Have you searched the forum?
You may check this to start:

Distribution settings are not saved in a .cds file

I have successfully created a distribution for my CVI8.0 application, and deployed it with no problems. However, although the settings work, a .cds file never gets created - I checked in the directory. When I close CVI and start it up again, it complains that the .cds file is missing. My distribution settings are gone, and I have start all over again, from 'Manage Distributions > Add' etc.
I want to be able to save my distribution settings.
The only way I have found to make CVI create a .cds file on the disc, is to go through the process, then click 'remove'. Then I get a prompt 'Save changes to the distribution?', when I click yes, the file gets created. After that, I can add it back in again. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?
Dave

Hi Dave,
In 8.0, the expected behavior is that any new/editted distribution is saved to disk (as a .cds file) when you OK the Manage Distributions dialog. It is also saved if you edit it from the Distributions>>Edit <name> menu item. I am unable to naively reproduce the problem you describe. Even looking at the source code, there is not an obvious scenario that might produce the behavior you describe.
If you could check a few things for me, it might help me figure out how this is happening.
1. Confirm that you have CVI 8.0 (not 8.0.1).
2. What is the path of the .cds file? Is there anything noteworthy about this path or the drive?
3. Try creating a distribution for one of our shipping samples (e.g. CVI80\samples\apps\finger.prj), and see if you have the same problem.
4. Make sure this happens even when you don't edit or build the new distribution. That is, hit the New button on the Manage Distributions dialog, OK the New Distribution dialog, OK the Edit Installer dialog, and OK the Manage Distributions dialog.
Also, please let me know your OS version and what other NI software, if any, you have installed.
Thanks.

Any suggestions as to how to solve this?
Thanks

Sorry, to reset firefox will require me to install a number of plug-ins.
All my settings were lost.
Luckely I created a backup using MozBackup.exe.
Some add-ons can easily be re-installed, but what about stuff like Acrobat PDF creator and Norton Vulnerability Protection. I think those add-ons are installed when an application is installed, so it would require me to re-install such applicatons.
Preferences not saved: nothing is write protected.
Deep sigh...

Xserv - user settings are not saved - help!

I've noticed that user settings do not get saved under OS Xserv...
Whenenver I login I get the default dock, with all the admin icons missing!
The desktop is saved in the root as /desktop/. (?!?)
When the machine was installed the first user was setup as Administrator (Admin) but it was deleted (against my sound advice) and since then things like the FTP server malfunctioned... The keychain seems to pop up a lot as well, and can't be opened / used. And the bookmarks don't get saved as well.
I'm assuming that user settings like the Dock should be saved somewhere.
Please help!
Everything else seems to be running but loosing all UI configurations at log-offs is taking a lot of time which I currently don't have enough of.

Anyone?
I was hoping that I'd get an answer through the forums.
I'll wait till next week and if there's still no post I'll contact Apple's Phone support.
Please post any suggestions - a Mac Server shouldn't be so fragile!

Develop settings are not saved

Hello,
I'm working mainly with jpeg and psd files and trying to save all settings and metadata automatically to be able to use it from other applications (e.g.Bridge). The two catalog options "Include develop settings in metadata..." and "Automatically write changes to XMP" are activated.
However, Lightroom does not save the modifications that I made in the Develop module. All other metadata changes (ratings, title, IPTC, etc...) are saved and available in other applications. I'm using version 3.3 on 64bit Windows. I'm not 100% sure but as I recall I didn't have this problem with previous versions.
Is there any solution?
Thanks!

It's not clear what you actually expected. Outside of Lr or Camera Raw the only way that an image will be rendered as per your edits is if they had been exported (i.e. newly fully rendered version of JPEG or PSD). Simply saving the setting does nothing other than embed a bunch of metadata.
