Firefox Sync synchronizes DPI settings for Gmail

I set up Firefox Sync on a computer with a large monitor (a TV actuall) and I had to increase the DPI in the Gnome monitor settings in order for text to be readable on the large monitor. Now, using Firefox Sync on a laptop with a much smaller monitor, it appears the DPI settings have been synced for Gmail. Gmail somehow stores this information and Firefox has synced it. Is there a way to avoid this? Perhaps I should ask Google instead?

nokia messaging email is supported in your device. Install it using the settings wizard(if preinstalled in device) or go to nokia messaging email site and choose your device and enter your phone no to get a link to download the app. Using the app you can choose to setup your multiple accounts in a single app to access all your mails together or you can set up a manual mailbox in messaging folder that delivers messages manually for a single account that you choose for.

For multiple users on a computer, will Firefox Sync synchronize all the users on a computer or only the one logged on? For instance my spouse and I will share a laptop and I want to sync my Firefox when I log on there also but do not want to sync her data.

After formatting the partition and installing Firefox again, I wanted to get my settings, bookmarks etc. back by syncronising with Firefox Sync but accidentaly settings from a fresh browser was uploaded and now I cannot have the browser the way I used to have.

Hi zoomy,
First check that you still have data in your sync account.
Firefox button > Options > Sync > Manage Account
It should tell you how much data is stored in the account. Is there any?
If there is still data in the sync account then you can follow the instructions in this article [[What is Firefox Sync?]]. Refer to the 'How much of my data is synced?' section. Change the option to 'Replace all data on this computer with my Sync data'.
I hope that works for you.
If there is no data in your sync account you will be able to get it back by syncing from another computer. Just make sure that the settings on that computer are not replaced by the blank account again. You can use the 'Replace all other devices with this computer's data' option to prevent this.
Please note that Firefox Sync is designed only to sync details between devices not as an online backup tool. If you are formatting a partition it is generally best to backup your profile folder along with any other data. See [[Managing profiles]] for more detail.

* Make sure that you not run Firefox in [[Private Browsing]] mode. In Private Browsing mode some menu items are disabled (grayed) and features like visited links and disabled and not available.
* You are in Private Browsing mode if you see "Tools > Stop Private Browsing", possibly grayed.
* You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
* To see all History settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting '''Firefox will: Use custom settings for history'''

Hello,
Firefox on Windows is now following display scaling options which may render text larger on high resolution displays.
You can adjust your screen resolution.
To modify it do the following:
* Type '''about:config''' into the Firefox address bar and tap on the Enter key.
* If the warning '''This might void your warranty''' appears, click '''I'll be careful, I promise'''.
* Search for '''layout.css.devPixelsPerPx'''
[[Image:Fx22layout.css.devPixelsPerPx]]
* Double-click on layout.css.devPixelsPerPx to modify its value. The default is -1.0 in Firefox 22 and above. Change it to '''1.0''' to make it work like in previous Firefox versions.
If necessary, further adjust the value in 0.1 or 0.05 steps. Use values between 1.0 and about 0.5 to reduce elements in size. Use values greater than 1.0 to increase size. For example, a value of 1.25 will increase font size to 125% to accommodate the default DPI setting in Windows 8. '''Double check the value that you enter.''' Setting a too small value will make everything disappear and a too large value will blow things up.
If web pages still need to be adjusted then you can look at the [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level/ Default FullZoom Level] or [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/nosquint/ NoSquint] extension.
To adjust the font size for the user interface, you can use the [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/theme-font-size-changer/ Theme Font & Size Changer] extension.

Thank you.

Firefox Sync doesn't work for me.

<pre><i>Locking duplicate thread.
Please continue here: [[/questions/970621]]
</i></pre>
It says, "Sync encountered an error while syncing: Unknown error. Sync will automatically retry this action".
Is there a way for me to find anymore details about this error so i can post it here? Everytime i try to sync, it asks me to setup and account or use existing account. So i always use the existing account and i have to input my username, password, and recovery key every time. How can i make Firefox sync remember my information for my profile?

Try to delete the current sync account and set up a new account in case something is wrong with the account you currently use.
* https://services.mozilla.com/ Firefox Sync » Home
* https://account.services.mozilla.com/
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Creating a profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from an existing profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem.

GMail. Changed password on PC email account, and did same on IPhone 4 Settings for Gmail. App opens but tells me username or password for Gmail is incorrect. Have ensured both are correct...still no access

GMail. Changed password on PC email account, and did same on IPhone 4 Settings for Gmail. App opens but tells me username or password for Gmail is incorrect. Have ensured both are correct...still no access

If you have 2-step verification set up for your gmail account, you will need to generate an application-specific password for your iphone applications (because those apps apparently don't support 2-step verification).
Go into your google account, look in accounts/security/2-step verification, there is a link called "Manage your application specific passwords" Use that to generate a special password for your iphone apps and use that instead of your usual gmail password on your phone.

Email - settings for gmail on iphone; Gmail or Exchange?? what's the dif??

hey there, can anyone itemize the differences between using Exchange for GMail, versus just using the GMAIL setup for email on the iphone4?
In the past i have had IMAP and GMAIL, and the single exchange.. NOW I am using exchange for access to all my gmail accounts. why should I use the GMAIL settings, instead of Exchange? for my gmail activity?
thanks

Thank you for your help.
I've read in numerous places that Safari should play .mp4 files fine and many of the iPhone presets output .mp4 files. In general, I've read, including at Apple's website, to enode using H.264 MPEG4 part 10, AAC audio, etc. I have tried creating custom presets and different subsettings, such as bitrate, frames, etc.
I cannot get anything to work correctly when trying to view the video using Safari on iPhone or iPad.
Anyone else know of any specific settings that will work?

SMTP settings for Gmail account -- Error 5.5.1 on Outlook for Mac

Which are the correct settings for gmail in MacBookPro

I want to use mac mail to access my gmail. Can I ? instead of going directly to web to access my gmail.? Which are the correct settings for the incoming and outgoing servers ?

Hi,
Yes. You can absolutely access your Gmail account from within either Mail or Microsoft Outlook for Mac. Make sure, that you have enabled POP/IMAP in your Gmail settings, then follow the instructions here: http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=180188 if you wish to access your account via POP3 instead of IMAP, change the incoming mail server to pop.gmail.com

"Take All Accounts Online" [Outgoing SMTP settings for GMail and other?]

i am having issues with outgoing server settings on my Desktop machine which means that business email that i /thought/ went out in the morning gets hung up and i don't know this happened until i get a prompt showing the email and it asks if i want to edit the message or try and resend using the same server.
Edit Message, Try with Selected Server
this happens on the desktop machine running Lion with my Website Based Email (i.e. i send a message and it gets hung up in Sent folder trying to go out for like five or ten minutes and then i get a prompt showing the email asking what i want to do).
however, i am also seeing an error on the iCloud account and am always having to try to take GMail "Online" on the desktop which is a wired connection. when i run Connection Doctor i get a "Trying to log in to this SMTP account failed. Verify that username and password are correct".
in the past i used to get an SSL error so i just UNCHECKED this option in SMTP and i have taken off App Specific Passwords in GMail because i had to enter this so many times when something changed (like at least three times on 3 different devices for each email client since i have two b/c i can/t just rely onMac Mail...).
anyway, is there a reason why i have to take all my Accounts online all the time?
should i keep SSL unchecked on everything?
should i check or uncheck USE THIS ACCOUNT ONLY?
is there a TRASH THE CACHE option for Mac Mail?
perhaps i should migrate to another email client?
thanks for any advice even anything that will get me up and running temporarily so my email goes out and in.

Roger's might have changed its email configuration. Contact their help desk to ask for assistance.

In firefox sync their is option for prefrence and tabs

In firefox their are option of prefrence and tabs
which data is stored under those option
what effect will be on my browsing experience if i remove those from syncronisation data.

Preferences synchronizes the parameters that you can customize in the "Preferences" window. If you uncheck Preferences and Tabs you will sync your History, Passwords and Bookmarks.
I'm not exactly sure about the details of your questions. Could you build exactly the case that you are envisioning? Are you worried about some of your data not being synched if you don't check the Preferences box?

Where do I change the dpi settings for creating a jpg in Bridge CS5?

I upload jpgs to an online site to be viewed in a browser. I've been using Bridge CS5 to batch process the jpgs from high quality pdfs.The settings I see when I do the settings to create the jpgs will only give me Maximum settings and the option to set it on 12 but when I open the jpg that's created in Photoshop, it's still 72. I would like to have at least a 150 dpi setting. I've searched and can't find any help online. What am I doing wrong, or isn't there any place to give me the option to change the settings to a higher dpi in Bridge? If this isn't possible, what do you suggest to make the process go faster? I'm using the Adobe CS5 programs.
Thanks in advance for any help.

"Maximum" and "12" usually refer to compression (influencing image quality and jpeg file size in bytes); and as Curt wrote, dpi is meaningless for display by and viewing in web browsers. (It could be a different matter if you are uploading the jpeg files for someone to download from the web to print.)
What are the sequence of steps that you and your batch processing take from Bridge?
You can use call Photoshop's Image Processor from Bridge to create the jpeg files (Tools > Photoshop > Image Processor). In the Image Processor you can set jpeg compression, pixel dimensions if desired, also convert to sRGB (good idea for web display). In my experience the image processor leaves unchanged whatever dpi is set in the source file; or, if none there as might be for a pdf, it will set the dpi value in your New Document Preset Print Resolution (from your Photoshop Units & Rulers preferences).
