FF 4 does not retain user website preferences - help!

Hi.
In IE 8 there is a provision under Tools -> Delete Browsing History to Preserve Favorites Website Data, like CNN and MSNBC settings, etc.
I don't see how I can do this in FF 4.
I tried leaving the Site Preferences box unchecked, to no avail. All of my personal website settings are deleted anyway.
What's up?
Please respond.
TIA :0)

  • Does not retain system sound preference settings

    I use a Tascam US 1800 audio I/O with my Mac Pro, but I have to reset the System Preferences to the US 1800 every time I restart the computer. The computer defaults to Line In and Line Out.
    I thought perhaps there was something wrong with the US 1800, so I tested it with my MacBook Pro and that computer retains the Sound preferences to the US 1800 when shut down and restarted. So it seems like the issue is with the Mac Pro.
    Does anyone have an idea what may be causing this and how to remedy it?
    Thanks!

    The permissions are totally wrong. It looks like someone has intentionally changed them.
    First, since I don't know what other damage has been done, you should at the very least back up all data and then run Repair Permissions in Disk Utility. That action may fix some (not all) other files with wrong permissions, but it wont fix this one.
    If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out these instructions.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below to select it:
    sudo chown 202:202 /L*/P*/A*/*.audio.*.plist; sudo chmod -N $_
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. Confirm. You don't need to post the warning. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    Quit Terminal and reboot.

  • Does not retain window position preferences

    I have a new Mac Pro. When it came it was loaded with Lion. The windows prefernces (position, list view vs column view, etc) wouldn't be retained. This wasn't just between restarts but even if I opened a folder, closed it and opened it a half-hour later. So I got the free upgrade to Mountain Lion (I had bought the computer just after June 2012. I thought the upgrade might help but it didn't.
    Itried deleting the .pref for the finder and some other fixes I found online. No luck.
    Still the same problem going on.

    Contact Apple's Express Lane. Do note that if you have AppleCare's protection plan and you're within 50 miles (80 KM) of an Apple repair station, you're eligible for onsite repair since yours is a desktop machine. Should apply to new machines within the first 90-day period.

  • Safari does not retain Full Screen state

    Yosemite: version 10.10 (14A389)
    Safari: version 8.0 (10600.1.25)
    Safari does not retain Full Screen state when opening, or re-opening, quitting and restarting Safari, or rebooting the computer, even when the last state was in Full Screen.
    Under Lion, this did not happen. Safari would always keep the last state used even after quitting, or rebooting the iMac.
    In God's Harmony

    navigate to your Users Library folder ( it is hidden , so use Finder's "go to folder" menu ) , then locate inside the Library folder "preferences", search for com.apple.safari and delete the plist you find for Safari.
    then restart Safari and it should present all new Lion Options.

  • Bridge does not keep my Label Preference

    I want to be able to rate my images in Bridge CS3 using only the number keys. So I go to Preferences - Labels - then uncheck "Require the Control Key to Apply Labels and Ratings". This works fine and I'm able to rate images by tapping keys 1 through 5 (for star ratings) then 6 to 9 for color labels.
    The problem is when I close Bridge CS3, it does not keep my labels preference. Every time I open Bridge again, the Control key is required to rate images. If I check the preference, that option is once again checked off.
    Is there a way to keep that UNchecked???

    Adobe has started to release really crappy software. Their bug testing is God aweful, and their willingness to fix their problems is even worse!
    Bridge constantly crashes for no reason whatsoever for me. If I leave it open, but haven't used it in a while, when I pull it back up, it often crashes. Explain that! I'm not even doing anything with the program.
    I'm having the same problems with labels retaining the preference. Inexcusable, and a complete failure of proper testing.
    How long has it been since Vista's been released, and yet there's STILL no native DNG preview? Sure, you can buy one for $30 bucks from a third party. Remind me again why I need to pay a third party to do Adobe's job?
    And because they make some of the best stuff, they can get away with this shoddy workmanship. But only for so long. Keep it up guys, and you'll inspire a competitor to do a better job.

  • Browser: Print to PDF does not retain hyperlinks

    Hi,
    I was wondering if someone can give me some guidance.
    I have several html pages that contain numerous hyperlinks throughout the page
    On each page there is a javascript print button (ie. onclick="window.print();returnfalse..........)
    Whenever a user chooses the option from the print dialog box to print the page to Adobe PDF,  the output (pdf) does not retain the hyperlinks.
    Is there a way, feature, or product that will allow external users to print to pdf and still have the hyperlinks work?

    Printing to PDF never includes interactive elements - it is what it says, a digital copy of a printed page. No links on a sheet of paper = no links on a PDF printout.
    To retain interactive content you must save the page as a PDF, for example using the Acrobat plugin for IE or Firefox.

  • Does not retain sort state

    App Store does not retain sort state when returning from viewing an individual app to the full list of apps. If the full list spans more than one page, the page you were on is also not retained.
    I have no idea if this is a bug, a feature (or lack thereof), or an oddity on my computer. Since I can't find any other way to request a feature or post feedback to Apple, I'm putting this here.
    If by some chance this is an issue with my computer only or I'm missing some preference somewhere (ha!) I'd appreciate any help provided by the community.

    Yes, it is indeed VERY frustrating that the App Stores don't return you to where you left off browsing if you stop to click on an app to read more about it. Once you're done reading about an app that interests you, you're dumped right back at the beginning. So, just to get back where you were, you may have to plow through ten pages of apps. I get so fed up with being whisked back to page 1 all the time that I just give up and leave the App Store in disgust. I hate wasting my time paging backnthrough all the apps I've alread covered. ALSO, when looking over GENIUS recommendations on the App Store, why is it that even when I click on NOT INTERESTED for a given app, the app just stays there? It's like my clicking NOT INTERESTED has no effect whatsover. What's the problem with the App Store?

  • Immediate postback does not retain field values under a dataTable

    A fairly common input dialog requirement is allowing the user to enter a variable number of rows of data -- as a concrete example say the form has one <h:inputText/> for a subject followed by a <h:dataTable/> initially with one <h:inputText/> for a URL, with a <h:commandButton immediate="true"/> called "Add Row". The user fills in subject, enters a URL, and then pushes "Add Row" to allow the entry of a second URL. This is an "immediate" button, and the action just adds a new element to the backing bean property which is a list of URL's.
    This almost+ does what the developer wants -- the form is redisplayed with a new empty URL row, the subject field remains filled in with what the user already entered, but the problem is the already filled in URL field is reset to blank.
    So it appears that input fields inside of a <h:dataTable/> do not retain user input if the form is submitted in immediate mode, but fields outside of <h:dataTable/> are preserved.
    I am using Sun's RI JSF 1.2, and it is not clear if this is just a bug, or some fundamental limitation. Given that the input fields in a data table have unique names that include the row index it seems possible that the posted parameters for the rows in a data table that remain after the action method adds or removes a row can be applied to the new view, just like for fields outside of the data table, and furthermore, this is what the user and developer would expect.
    The questions are:
    <ol><li>Is this a bug?</li>
    <li>If it is not a bug, what is another way to achieve the desired behavior?</li>
    </ol>

    Hello.
    I'm using Apex 4.1.0 on Oracle 10.2.0.5 and Oracle app server (mod_plsq).
    Unfortunately, whenever I change this field to "InActive" in an existing row and then click my "Add Row" button, the tabular form re-appears with a new row but the modified row still has "Active" as the setting.
    I checked the values in my COL_CHOICES collection to be sure that the "active_status" field actually changed from "Active" to "InActive" for the existing/modified row. And it did. The modified row in the collection shows "InActive" as the value, even though the page displays "Active" for the value.
    How then can I make this drop down show the actual modified value?
    I've looked at the APEX_ITEM docs and have tried various combinations of the parameters but nothing works.The second parameter to <tt>apex_item.select_list</tt> is the value for the control. Your code has
    apex_item.select_list(16, null, 'Active;Y,InActive;N', 'style="color:darkred;"', 'NO', '%NULL%', '%', 'f16_' || '#ROWNUM#', NULL, 'NO') active_statusThis will always have the value NULL and thus default to the first option "Active". You need to use the appropriate column from the collection here instead of NULL:
    apex_item.select_list(16, c021, 'Active;Y,InActive;N', 'style="color:darkred;"', 'NO', '%NULL%', '%', 'f16_' || '#ROWNUM#', NULL

  • Facebook login does not add user and password to the account

    Hi
    PROBLEM
    Facebook login button does not create user and password for login.
    We wish we could ONLY use facebook login button to allow users the account creation on our campus.
    So we disabled the user creation webform.
    And only out facebook login buttons that students can only login to our campus using their fb account in the hope that they dont share it (hopefuly)
    AND
    This is a problem BECAUSE if I publish events and capture leads ALL those users have problems creating their user account latter.
    CASE IS
    1.- A person comes to my website and leaves a comment. This creates a register with their email and name.
    2.- Days later this same user comes back and clicks a facebook user login/ account creatio.
    2.1 The page now shows that user name as it comes from Facebook. BUT NO USER AND PASSWORD information added to that person's register in the CRM.
    So
    If some one leaves a comment, register to our mailing list FIRST
    and SECOND tries to create his account afterward. IT DOESNT WORK
    Any ideas?
    Thank you so much in advance.
    P.S.
    This is the web page. If you 1) Leave first a comment and 2) click on fb login/create account button the profile renders unusable. I have to delete it so you can create your user

  • Firefox 29.0.1 Does Not Retain Options Settings. Cookies Enabled.

    On only one of my XP profiles, Firefox 29.0.1 does not retain the settings made under tools-options.

  • Adobe form created in LiveCycle does not remember user input

    Adobe form created in LiveCycle does not remember user input when the file has been re-opened after it has been saved.
    Example:
    "Check box" that has been selected and who have registered Action script (may be that it should be disabled), seems to be reset when the file is re-opened, although it apparently is checked.
    Are there settings or script that can prevent this?

    Hi there,
    usually if the values are not kept in form after saving and re-opening the form, it would be because of your code... or because it is not Reader Extended PDF...
    If your code has a function which is to return a value to your field without it to be working based on your Design, it will reset any data..(variables)
    Which means...
    e.g.: You have an array/var/JSONobject which you populate varying on the data entered in the design, as long as you are in the actual form, without closing and re-opening the form, it will keep all values inside that array / variables / JSONobject. But, once the form closed and re-opened, if you have a function that returns a value to your field, whatever the field, from any variable in the script it will return nothing because every variables are reset. To avoid such a thing, you must repopulate all variables that were assigned previously before closing the PDF Form. To do so, I recommend to have a page(hidden) which contains every important values according to that function and you must repopulate those variables according to the values in the keepVar page...
    If you do not have any function that returns a value to a field based on your variables, this is not the solution you are looking for and I am not aware of the reason why it behaves like this... Maybe more information on the behaviour of your form would help locate the issue...
    Hope this help

  • MW64,  cs6 bridge when I move or copy files the  context menu does not retain  recent folder destinations after I close the program

    W64,  cs6 bridge when I move or copy files the  context menu does not retain  recent folder destinations after I close the program. The context options that show are the ones from original install. The workspace I set up is also gone. I have every explorer box and cleaner checked to save recent. Had to disable nivedia desktop software because of weird display conflict. Have Dell pro support and they cannot fix. Any ideas to help me with this would be appreciated.

    Self-solved!  I work in column view in Finder so get there in a Finder window with folders and files appearing.
    There really is no problem, just select an ITEM in the COLUMN before right-clicking!
    The "old" context menu will appear. If you click in the white space in that column (or anywhere in a Finder window) and then place the cursor over a folder or file WITHOUT selecting it and right-click you will bring up the secondary context menu - Open, Copy, Duplicate, View Options and a greyed out Labels option. No "Move to Trash".

  • Scroll bar does not retain its position after or before pack

    Hi
    My Scroll bar does not retain its position after pack in my application.
    But i need to retain its state.
    My code snippet is :
    System.out.println("VAlue--->" + getHXValue());
    scrollPane.getHorizontalScrollBar().setValue(getHXValue());
    pack();
    My VAlue printed is 100.
    But my positon of scroll bar is at 0 th location.
    Can any one help me.....

    Swing related questions should be posted in the Swing forum.
    My code snippet is :Snippets don't help.
    If you need further help then you need to create a "Short, Self Contained, Compilable and Executable, Example Program (SSCCE)",
    see http://homepage1.nifty.com/algafield/sscce.html,
    that demonstrates the incorrect behaviour, because I can't guess exactly what you are doing based on the information provided.
    Don't forget to use the "Code Formatting Tags",
    see http://forum.java.sun.com/help.jspa?sec=formatting,
    so the posted code retains its original formatting.

  • Copy and Paste on Safari 5.0.2 does not retain formatting

    Hi there.
    I'm on Safari 5.0.2. and when I copy and paste something (in this case, on a message board--vBulletin, but it doesn't work on anything else) it does not retain the original formatting (for example--bold, italics, underline, etc.) If I copy something from Safari and paste it into another program, TextEdit for example, the formatting remains and works fine.
    This is extremely annoying. Anyone have any ideas?
    *If you're on Safari, try copying* and *pasting this sentence in a reply* --it will remove all the formatting for some reason. It will work in TextEdit, however. It's not just this message board software either...try it somewhere else too.
    Message was edited by: FINALBOSS

    Hi
    copying formatted text & pasting in Safari does retain the formatting, so long as the place you're pasting it supports varying fonts/styles.
    So copy/paste here, just shows as plain text.
    c/p to blogger.com in the 'compose' tab - works fine
    c/p to blogger in the 'html' tab - plain text
    same with textedit: paste from safari to textedit +in a plain text document+ -you get plain text.

  • Server does not recognise user and password

    unable to email photos. server does not recognise user and password

    This is a quite interesting issue. Perhaps it may help if we start by trying to understand what caused the issue and then we will consider how you might recover from it.
    One of the things that Cisco wanted to do as they released version 15.0 was to improve the security of passwords in IOS. So they designed and implemented a new "type 4" password which they intended to replace the previous "type 5" password used for enable secret or for username secret passwords. So in those versions of 15.0 if you configure enable secret or username secret for passwords the IOS would create the new type 4 password.
    Then you reacted to some problem and loaded an older version of IOS. 12.2(55) does not understand the type 4 passwords. So as your switch booted on this version of code and it read lines in the startup config that had type 4 passwords it did not understand them and marked them as invalid input. So the result is that your switch does not have an enable secret and perhaps usernames do not have passwords.
    I do not know if you will be able to recover without doing password recovery but I have a suggestion which you can try. See if you can login on the console. It may depend on how your switch was configured whether it will let you do that and whether it will let you get to enable mode on the console. The default behavior was to allow the console to get to enable mode without a password. If your configuration includes aaa authentication enable default enable then the console may not work and in that case I believe that your only alternative will be password recovery.
