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. I have deleted the cookies from Mozilla on the chance they may have been corrupted and have also cleared the web cache. The problem remains. Also, it is not clear in the new version how to have Firefox ask you each time before a cookie is accepted. Thanks for you help.

You can try to delete the cookies.sqlite and permissions.sqlite files in the Firefox profile folder.
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
* Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Director: Show Folder (Linux: Open Director; Mac: Show in Finder)
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
You can inspect and manage the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab via these steps:
* Click the "Site Identity Button" (globe/padlock) on the location bar
* Click "More Information" to open "Tools > Page Info" with the Security tab selected
* Go to the Permissions tab (Tools > Page Info > Permissions) to check the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab

  • Firefox 37.0.2 Does not memorize options

    Firefox 37.0.2 does not memorize my option to always open PDF with Adobe Reader, keep asking everytime.
    Another question, is that possible to download and open PDFs files, instead os only opening?
    Thanks

    Open and save is only possible as a two step process.
    You either open the PDF file in an external viewer and save the file in that application via "File > Save As" or similar or you save the file via Firefox and in the Downloads Manager use "Open Containing Folder" to open the file in Finder or double-click the file to open in the default application.

  • Nesting does not retain audio settings

    This one has me stumped. I am working on a project that is being built in segments. As the segments are built I am nesting to later bring them for the final output. One and only one of the nested sequences is giving me trouble.
    Each of the nested sequences has one audio track, mono for VO. All other show two lines of audio when the sequence has been saved as a nested item. When this one is saved it too shows that it has two audio tracks and plays back fine until you take it out of the timeline and then try to re-import it, magicly only one of the tracks appears and only plays back on the right channel. In the browser it does show two outputs just like the rest do but will only pull one in the timeline.
    Anyone have a clue what I'm doing wrong or have had a similar experiance?
    Thanks in advance
    Mac Pro 2.66   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    Something silly you might check is to load the nest into the viewer and check to see that both channels aren't panned right.
    Usually when I get stuff like this it's a render issue which is why I suggested making sure all of your audio is 48k and not needing a render.
    Also, like Steve suggested if your audio is all mixed down it shouldn't be doing that.
    Worst case scenario - can you select all and copy paste your sequences into a final sequence instead of bringing the nests in?

  • IBooks does not retain brightness settings after sleep mode.  Is there a way to configure this?

  • Firefox 3.6.9 on mac running 10.4.11 does not have option for custom headers when printing.

    I am trying to print web content for a college project, it requires custom headers and footers. Firefox 3.6.9 does not have a custom option in the header/footer lists. In the help pages for Firefox is shows this option. Is this missing only on the Mac version? Thanks for any info.

    See if this works.
    Type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit enter.
    Filter = '''print.print''' <br />
    There are 6 prefs for headers / footers. <br />
    '''print.print_header...''' center, left, & right <br />
    and <br/>
    '''print.print_footer...''' center, left, & right <br />
    You can add what you want in the '''''Value''''' column and then Restart Firefox to effect the change. <br />

  • Is there a save option on iPhoto? Sometimes iPhoto does not retain the name on a face I've added to a photo.

    Sometimes iPhoto does not retain the name on a face I've added to a photo. I have 'added a face' then flipped to the next picture then back to that picture and the label has disappeared.

    No.  It's supposed to be automatic.  You might try repairing the library's database and then see if it still crops up now and then. If that doesn't help try rebuilding it the same way.
    Launch iPhoto with the Option+Command keys held down and select the database repair option in the rebild window:
    Then the rebuild option if necessary.

  • 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.

  • 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".

  • 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.

  • Firefox location bar history does not clear

    Problem: When I attempt to delete or clear the Location bar, nothing happens. The Location Bar remains fixed and does not update as I browse. This fixed Location Bar history still remains despite various methods of clearing it.
    Specs: Running Firefox 3.6.8 on Windows Vista.
    Details: Despite various methods, location bar history remains fixed and does not change or update as I browse. I wish for it to display an accurate history but it instead remains fixed. The only way to clear it is to open Tools > Options, and click on Nothing under Location bar suggestions. However, this renders the location bar useless for providing history.
    - Selecting websites in Location Bar and pressing "Delete" or "Backspace" has no lasting effect. The website goes away while the Location Bar is pulled down, but reappears in the exact same spot when the Location Bar is viewed again.
    - Clearing recent history, with time range set to everything and all options selected in the Details panel, does nothing.
    - Pressing Ctrl-Shift-H and deleting all history does not clear Location Bar.
    - While in History, highlighting any websites displayed on the Location Bar and telling Firefox to forget it does not clear the Location Bar.
    - Running Firefox in Safe Mode still gives me the same problem. Location Bar does not change.
    P.S. Location Bar does not display Bookmarks. There are no stars next to any web addresses despite changing Location Bar Suggestion settings to "Bookmarks".
    I simply want to get my Location Bar back in working order, but have been unable to do so following the conventional methods suggested on Firefox Support. Thanks for your help!

  • Firefox 3.6.3 does not save any history, does not save passwords. I have read the forum and checked my settings (ok), started in Safe mode (still does not work).

    Firefox 3.6.3 does not save history, nor passwords. I have read the forum and checked my settings in Privacy (all ok), I restarted Firefox in Safe mode (it still does not remember history or passwords). Running on XP. I think these problems started when I upgraded to 3.6.3.

    I had the same problem after an upgrade to 3.6.3.
    I was using password manager for a number of web sites before. Not using cookies but password manager.
    After 3.6.3 auto upgrade it did not work.
    I could not enter private browsing mode.
    When I looked in tools>options>security at my saved passwords the list was blank. The button in the saved passwords dialog that normally says "Show saved passwords" was actually blank (the button was there but there was no text on it).
    I did have my old bookmarks and was able to create new ones but oddly the bookmark all tabs menu function wouldn't work.
    I decided to reinstall firefox 3.6.3. There is no way something with that many bugs got out!
    I was able to get the full firefox executable from http://mozilla.com
    I closed all firefox windows and ran the installation.
    After re-running the install and starting firefox everything was fine. It must have been a bad download or the original install got messed up somehow.
    I hope you have the same good fortune I had!

  • Norton 360 does not pick up tracking cookies after updating to firefox 17.0

    With firefox 17.0 Norton 360 does not pick up tracking cookies that were picked up with firefox 16.0.2. Uninstalled 17.0 and and reinstalled 16.0.2 - tracking cookies are picked up - updated to 17.0 and again no tracking cookies. I did not see anything in release note that would seem to reflect this situation. asked this question at 08:57 PST 11/29/2012 and the reply stated that Norton 360 should still be able to remove tracking cookies. WELL IT DOES NOT - WHAT HAS CHANGED FROM 16.0.2 TO 17.0 THAT WOULD CAUSE THIS. IS THIS A NEW BUG? The first reply did not answer my question however it was marked as "solved". I have rolled back to 16.0.2 and updated to 17.0 twice and the same thing has happened both times.

  • Is there an issue with Safari in Iphones and Ipads where it does not recognize option disabled="disabled" tag properly?

    Greetings everybody,
    I have run into a peculiar problem with the Safari browser on mobile platforms (IPad, IPod, IPhone) which I hope I can find a solution for in this community.
    I just launched a new website where I sell products with certain variations, for example please view this link: http://www.finerribbon.com/aegean-single-face-satin-ribbon.html
    On this particular product, the product variants are supposed to work in such a way where:
    If you select the value "1/8" from the "Choose Ribbon Width" field
    THEN
    The only options active and available to choose from in the "Choose Roll Size" field should be: 500 Yds, 20 Yds & Sample Swatch
    Now, if we browse to the above link in Safari using a desktop or a laptop, there are no problems at all, but if we browse to the above link using an IPhone or an Ipad, then we have a problem where all the options are available regardless of the values chosen, basically the above functonality does not work.
    I was told that there an issue with Safari in Iphones and Ipads where it does not recognize option disabled="disabled" tag properly, is this true? Can anyone advise me if there is a solution to this problem? I would sincerely apperciate it.
    Thank you very much for your time and help!

  • FireFox 4.0.1 does not support HP Simplepass Identity finger print scanner?

    The previous version of Firefox would work with my HP Simple pass (finger print scanner built into the laptop) to be used as a password for all web sites that require a password. Firefox 4.0.1 does not know what to do when I scan my finger print on a login page. Can I remove Version 4 and go back to the old version that worked?

    Please do not mind my first error, the one about the Finger print Scanner. \
    But please help me with the USB problem.
