Firefox keeps making me sign in to email though I've checked the keep me signed in option

It also started to freeze a lot. these problems started when I updated to 4.0. I don't know what version I had before that. I went back and got 3.6.3 and it doesn't freeze but I still have to sign into att yahoo email frequently each day. very annoying. attyahoo help chat tried to help by switching from the "leave signed in option" to a different frequency and then back to "leave signed in". It worked for one or two times then went back to telling me to sign in again.

I use the Icalendar at home, at work, and on my Iphone. I don't want to have to "sign in" every time I need my calendar. How do I stay signed in? I have checked the "keep signed in" box, but it does not work.

Welcome to the Apple community.
Staying signed in at iCloud.com is not a problem for me. Try resetting your browser or emptying its cache.

Even though I checked the keep me signed in box, I have to sign in to get to my home page

I have the keep me signed in box checked but I have to sign in to get to my home page. It comes up with the set up your home page.

The default Homepage in Firefox is '''about:home''', which isn't a page on the internet, it is built into Firefox and doesn't have a login. It does look a lot like the [http://www.google.com/firefox Google / Firefox start page] which was used previously, but it isn't the same.
Firefox doesn't use the Homepage setting in Internet Options.
See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page How to set the homepage]
As far as "remember me" for web site logins, that is usually done with a cookie, if you clear your cookies when Firefox closes, you won't be "remembered".

Firefox won't open PDF files after I removed older version of PDF-xChange Viewer and installed the lastest version of PDF-xChange Viewer. MS Explorer which I am now force to use works OK. I have checked the Applications window in Tools/Options and it l

Firefox no longer opens PDF files. Explorer works OK. I have checked the Applications window in the Tools/Options and it says I am using PDF-xChange viewer....It just does not do anything. I get the message in the Download Error window which says...."could not be saved, because you cannot change the contents of that folder. Is the same error which I get when I attempt to open a PDF file on a webpage using the Firefox browser....Explorer works OK so I am now forced to Explorer to read PDF files via a browser.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== After removing a old copy of PDF-xChange Viewer and updating to the last version

The error message suggests that the file (pdf) that you're trying to download cannot be saved in the folder Firefox tries to save it in.
This can be due to several things - it could be a non-existing folder (could be a problem with the updated application), the hard drive could be too full to store the file (less likely if you can generally surf the net without error messages) or it could contain an error.
To complicate things a little further, it seems to me that you have (at least) 3 different PDF-handling plugins in Firefox from different programs:
PDF-XChange Viewer Netscape Gecko Plugin
Adobe PDF Plug-In For Firefox and Netscape "9.3.2"
Zeon PDF Plugin For Mozilla
This shouldn't matter too much, thou, as it will most likely simply use either the latest installed or the first one it finds when looking up associations for files of type 'pdf'.
First, in Tools > Options... > tab General > section File download, select "Save files in" and Browse your way to a (non-writeprotected!) folder on a drive where you're certain there is enough free space - like the Desktop folder to make the files end up on your Windows desktop.
Second, under Applications as you mention yourself, find all document types related to PDF files, and set these to one of the programs. Check the entire list to be sure there isn't one hiding under one of the other programs' document types (Adobe Acrobat document, PDF X-Change and Zeon).
Restart Firefox, and try opening a PDF again.
If it fails once more, try changing the documents again to one of the other programs, like "Use Adobe Acrobat (in Firefox)".
If it STILL fails, change it to simply "Save file". Then you can simply browse your way to the download folder with Windows Explorer, and doubleclick the PDF file to see which program actually handles PDF files as default on the machine, and if it works properly.
If Firefox flatly refuses to save the PDF files in a folder which you're certain both exist and has space for the file, some (probably security related) program is most likely interfering with Firefox, preventing it in storing PDF files on the system.

While signing a .XML file a message "cannot read the file for signing" is displayed. What is the solution.

An official site incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in requires .XML files to be uploaded. When .XML files are uploaded without digital signatures there is no problem. When digital signatures are required for signing the same a message 'CANNOT READ THE FILE FOR SIGNING" is displaced. It happens with CHROME and IE also. The solution which I have devised is that I copy the .XML files in a folder called FAKEPATH in C: drive and pick the file for signing from this folder. The browser allows the file to sign with digital signatures. What is the solution.

I have the ipad3,and I plug my charger in to charge my ipad and it comes up with the charging battery sign charges for a few minuets and then the white apple sign loads up into the screen then my ipad goes dead again,I hope someone can help:)

I have an ipad 3, when I plug my charger in the ipad comes up with the sign to say it is charging and then the apple sign loads up as if the ipad is about to come on,but then the ipad just goes dead again,I've tried holding both buttons down and I have also tried charging it over night but still nothing is working.
I hope someone could help:)

When you say you tried holding both buttons, did you mean you held both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appeared, ignoring the red slider if that appears? If so, exactly what happens?
You may need to take the iPad and charger to an Apple store genius bar to be tested by the techicians.

Firefox requires me to sign in each time I open it though I check the keep me signed in box. How do I resolve this?

Mail keeps making new mail sounds for emails I get that dont trigger notifications.

I want to have the noise happen, but only if it also triggers a notification. I have plenty of rules that shunt emails off to various folders, but the messages that go to main inbox make a notification, and the others dont.
tl;dr -> notification iff sound for new mail

So now everything is working again all one its own on my computer and the icloud page but not on my phone.

Error -603 (could not install extension) notification keeps popping up when I sign into CC even though I've installed the extension trough Extension Manager

Hi like my question says above, purchased an extension and installed it manually because it would not install automatically (error -603) but now I keep getting the same message/notification every time that I log into CC when starting the computer or if I log in manually after having logged out
Any help would be highly appreciated
Richard

Hi,
Would you let us know which add-on show 603 error. Can you find this add-on from https://creative.adobe.com/addons/my_addons (even it is a free add-on)?
And we need following informations:
* Your device (windows or Mac)
* How did you use Extension Manager to install that add-on? Where do you get the zxp file? Did you install that add-on from Adobe Exchange Panel?
1. Create a file called exmancoreliblog.yes and copy it to
Mac: /Users/<name>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Extension Manager CC/Log/
Windows: C:\Users\<name>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Extension Manager CC\Log
2. Restart Extension Manager and reproduce your issue
3. Send us ExManCoreLibrary.log file in that log folder to [email protected]

Firefox will NOT remember passwords although I've checked the "Remember Passwords for Sites" option.

The question is just as I posed it - Firefox forgets to keep the passwords for sites, even after I'm prompted to do so each time a site is opened.

Do you mean names and passwords in the Password Manager or do you mean that you are no longer logged on to (remembered by) websites after closing and restarting Firefox?

FF4 keep asking me to "save password" even if i already pick the "never for this site" option... any solutions?

just that

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the ''Safe mode'' start window.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (on Mac: "Firefox > Quit")

Firefox v. 8.0.1 does not offer to remember passwords on sites even though I have checked the option to 'remember passwords for sites' - I am not in private browsing mode. how can i fix this?

google chrome DOES ask; mozilla firefox does not.
It has some memorized passwords, but all are left over from previous versions of firefox.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

HT1430 my iPhone will not send emails. I have checked the settings and reset the phone, it still does not work. Any suggestions? Thanks

If anyone can help I would appreciate it. Mail on my iphone will not send any messages. I have followed the Apple instructions and still it won't work, even after resetting my iphone. My email provider is BT.

To Avoid Relaying:
If you are sending an email from, say, [email protected], but the return address is [email protected], that is relaying (you are using y.com's servers to send an email where the email "originates" from b.com). Many servers don't allow relaying to prevent spamming.
To make this work go into the email account settings, tap the account "button" that has your email address, go to the Advanced section in "Mail" if there is one, then go to "Outgoing Mail Server", tap it, and then tap "Primary Server", and in the Outgoing Mail Server enter your user name and password. It may say optional, but you need this.
Not all services provide this and the sequence of buttons I describe above may not be exactly the same for each address (look around if different). If you can't set the user name and password, then that email service does not provide a way to get around relaying.
