Firefox won't delete cookies even after set to clear cookies on firefox exit

I have use custom settings for remembering history in firefox.
I set to clear history on firefox close. Under this settings, I set to clear cookies, active login and cache. But whenever firefox exits it doesn't remove cookies.
Also, I set to keep cookies till firefox closes. Still the cookies appears.
This is a big security issue for me..When I click restore previous session, firefox restores the login into sites also which I don't want

Got It!!!
Go To: Firefox/Tools/Options/Privacy/Tracking Checked box/Tell websites I do not want to be tracked/ History Firefox will: Never Remember History/ You may also want to: clear all current history/ Clear now/ click OK, ---> got it, that is your answer.<-- (Right click the left image below to open in a new tab)
And it is my answer as well, as I was confounded with this problem for some time. Now after you do this close your Firefox browser, and open back up Firefox browser, and there will be maybe only one or two cookies, depending on your browsers' home page.
I tried other methods to get rid of persistent cookies that would not delete by, CookieKiller, and TACO Targeted Advertising Cookie Opt-Out, those did not help, and I tried the methods listed on these links but they did not work:http://webdevwonders.com/clear-dom-storage/
Also this method did not work:http://justplainobvious.blogspot.com/2009/03/firefox-wont-delete-cookies.html
Next to make your Firefox browsing possible, go to/Firefox/Tools/Options/Privacy/,Tracking Checked box/Tell websites I do not want to be tracked, History Firefox will: Use custom settings for history, unchecked box Always use private browsing mode, unchecked box Remember my browsing history, unchecked box Remember download history, unchecked box Remember search and form history, checked box Accept cookies from sites, checked box Accept third party cookies, Keep until: I close Firefox, checked box clear history when Firefox closes, /settings all nine boxes checked/ click --->OK! (Right click the right image below to open in a new tab)
All Cookies are gone/history/deleted.

  • Even after setting system preferences to Never accept cookies and having deleted all cookies, Safari continues to add cookies.  I've tried to reset safari but the problem persists.  How can make safari Never accept cookies.

    I'm having a problem with cookies on Safari.
    Even after setting system preferences to Never accept cookies and having deleted all cookies, Safari continues to add cookies.  I've tried to Reseting Safari several time but the problem persists.  This is occurring under two different user logins one of whom is an administrator the other a standard user.  How can I get safari to Never accept cookies?  This is a recent problem because in the past it used to work properly. Any idea what might be going on here?

    Hi David:
    I did read (yesterday in another thread) about a similar problem.  I cannot test it myself as I accept cookies (from sites I visit) and do not want to delete all of mine for a test.
    I do not know whether it meets your requirements, but you could turn on private browsing.  I use that (or Microsoft's variant on IE) when I use public computers.

    Thank you, for that. To be sure, I tried your suggestion, and selected "System Proxy" as the choice, for Thunderbird and Firefox. Rebooted, and looked at the outcome.. NO Joy.. :-(
    I believe that I shall send the output of the Error Log in my next post. Perhaps someone can point me in the right direction after looking at the Error.log.
    Thank you...Toad Hall. If you think of something else to try, I am ALL ears.. I shall keep trying..

  • IPOD WON'T TURN ON EVEN AFTER TRYING TO RESET IT

    PLS. HELP! MY IPOD WITH VIDEO WON'T TURN ON EVEN AFTER TRYING TO RESET IT. THE BATTERY IS FULL. IT WILL JUST TURN ON AFTER 24HRS. WHEN THE BATTERY IS DRAINED EVEN WITHOUT USING IT BECAUSE IT IS IN FROZEN STATE. FOR INSTANCE AFTER DISCONNECTING FROM THE COMPUTER SAFELY AFTER CHARGING IT I KEPT IT OPEN BUT WHEN IT TURNED OFF AUTOMATICALLY IT WILL NOT TURN ON.

    Ok well, if you do not have the Ipod starter disk, you can’t do very much to save it anymore. It is completely gone.
    At this point I would recommend you calling Apple and setting up a repair. I would suggest you buy their warrantee plan, ($50 and good from 2 years) and it starts as soon as you buy the plan, NOT when you got your Ipod. The reason I would suggest that is, because if they deny your problem (like they did to me 5 time before finally replacing mine) it will save you a LOT of money. There may also be further issues as well with your Ipod.
    Apples SoS number is:
    1-800-767-2775
    Open 6am-6pm EST.
    They might even have a few ideas on how to fix it as well!
    As for “Viruses” I would highly doubt it. Viruses are programs designed to destroy certain parts of computer. Such as, a virus that destroys windows computer, does not do anything to Mac computer. It does not have the same components. The same thing goes for Ipod, PSP, etc. Files my contain viruses in them, but it would not effect the product in most cases. Only if you transfer the file on it to another computer, could it do anything.
    Your problem is, most likely your ipod just broke. Or should I say, just stopped working. Ipod’s are notorious at doing such things. Apple will take care of it. BUT GET THE EXTENDED WARRANTY! That is the only way to make sure they fix it. It is cheaper than buying a $350-$400 new 60 gig Video.
    Good luck my friend, God Life

  • Webi report would NOT refresh even after setting prompts and refreshing document instance.

    I am a .NET developer and a newbie to the world of BO I have just written a simple application in C# making use of the BO.NET Enterprise SDK and the ReportEngine.NET SDK to open a WEBI document and export it to Excel.  I have got the whole thing working - starting from establishing the EnterpriseSession, obtaining the reportEngine instance and also opneing the Webi document and exporting it to Excel. 
    The problem is the even after setting a different value for the prompts I ALWAYS get the same report  - for example if I set the Country prompt to India I always get the previous one that was set in the universe (Brazil).  These are not optional prompts and I do refresh the documentInstance after calling "SetPrompts"  Did anyone elase have the same problem with caching?.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Please find the snipped of the code attached.

    The link is correct, however you need access to SAP Service Market Place (SMP), which you should have since you are using BOE / BI. If not, ask your BOE / BI administrator to set you up with logon to SMP.

    Hi Sandesh,
    First note that HR:Security Is for HRMS module for restricting data for respective OUs
    MO:Security is for other Modules such as Inv, PO, AR, AP etc., for restricting data
    Change the inventory Org to the one you want and then query data...
    Hope it helps.

  • Still sleeping even after setting Energy Saver to Never

    I'm trying to use my 2.53 GHz (Late 2009) MM as a server but even after setting the 'Computer sleep' preference to 'Never' in the Energy Saver System Preferences panel, the MM still goes to sleep. This isn't a big issue for me since I can and have used Wake On Lan apps/scripts, but it's a major pain in the you-know-what for other people who need to access this server over the internet.
    Could there be some persistent overriding preference somewhere that is allowing this MM to go to sleep when in fact it should not be because of my setting? I've searched but can find anything.
    TIA for any help with this.

    Interesting... I had an EyeTV that I did install on an older G5 PowerMac that I stopped using before I migrated to this MM back in March. I'll check to see if the EyeTV app was also migrated over and uninstall it if necessary.
    I would have thought that the EyeTV software would default to a "Never Sleep" state considering it's purpose. I'll check this possibility out when I get home after the long weekend.

    my new imac won't operate youtube even after installing the latest flash

    Problem solved!
    I had downloaded and then installed Flash, and restarted. 
    The problem?  I was expecting Youtube to work as on my old PC, where you get a little pop-up menu at the bottom of the TV screen to play. pause etc.  That won't happen on a Mac until  you click on the oblong that says Flash in the middle - I didn't know that!
    Hooray!

    Hi huddie71,
    Thank you for your question.
    I've raised the limits on their mailbox, and the aforementioned connector settings, etc.,
    except the Organization Configuration / Hub Transport / Global Settings / Transport Settings / Maximum Receive and Send Sizes.      
    By my understand, we could modify the global settings by the following path:
    Organization Configuration / Hub Transport / Global Settings / Transport Settings / Maximum Receive and Send Sizes.      
    Because it will work on existed user and new user without explicit message size limits sets.
    If there are any questions regarding this issue, please be free to let me know. 
    Best Regard,
    Jim
    Hi Jim-Xu.  That would result in everyone getting an increased limit.  I only want one person to have an increased limit.  See the 2nd paragraph in my original post.

  • My iPhone4 won't turn on even after being charged for 1 hour and when I plug it into my computer nothing happens

    My iPhone4 won't turn on even after being charged for 1 hour and when I plug it into my computer nothing happens. PLEASE HELP

    I have a similar (if not the exact same) problem! Here are some more details if they are helpful.
    My iPhone 4 died earlier today and will not turn back on. It seemed that the battery died while it was not in use. I attempted to charge it on one charging cord in multiple wall outlets and none worked. Assuming it was a malfunction in the cord, I took my phone home to try charging it there.
    Again, I attempted charging it in multiple outlets with a different cord than previously used. None of these seemed to work, though they would flash the Connect to Power screen for a brief moment before returning to a black screen. I assumed that my phone was simply so depleted of battery that it needed a long charge.
    I charged it for 30+ minutes without any success, then attempted to charge it through my MacBook instead of through a wall outlet. iTunes did not even recognize that my phone plugged in (and still hasn't). I've attempted charging it for an extended period of time (1+ hour) with no luck. Sometimes when I press the Power button it will flash the Connect to Power screen once more before returning to black.
    The Apple logo never appears, nor does any apparent progress on charging. I have attempted holding down the Power and Home buttons simultaneously for 10 - 30 second increments. Still no luck. There is no reason anything should be happening with this phone that I can identify.
    I have no warranty and just recently replaced my previous phone which had had similar problems before completely crashing. This is a phone new to me that was previously used but in almost new conditions and factory reset by Apple prior to my purchase.
    Does this mean that my phone battery is dead?
    Is there anything else I can do??

  • Acrobat X Pro won't open.  Even after a reinstall - what can I do?

    My Acrobat X Pro won't open - even after a reinstall.  What can I do?

    Thanks Jeff - what's strange is that I've been prompted a few times since installation to register the software, so I don't know why it would be doing that if it's already registered.
    When prompted, I would follow the links to the registration information page, and then work through the registration process, and then when prompted to enter the serial code it does not accept it. I've tried the serial code that came with the license, as well as the serial codes for the individual products (Illustrator, Photoshop, etc.), and none of those were accepted by the registration form. So "registering to an account which includes your companies information would be sufficient." does not seem to be working for me, unless there is more to "including the companies information" then I've seen in the sign up pages.
    To be clear, I'm not fumbling around blindly here, I've done a lot to try and register the product myself and have yet to succeed.
    My questions are these (and apologies if this is not directly related to the OT), 1) is there a way to confirm the product is registered, 2) if it is not registered, what specifically do I need to tell the purchasing people to do to make sure it is registered properly, and 3) after following the process here: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/acrobat-failed-launch-30-days.html - does this fix the Acrobat issue for good, or will I have to repeat this process in another 30 days? Does lack of registration potentially affect other products in the Web and Design Creative Suite?
    Thanks again for the assistance, I'm hoping to get enough information to be able to give our IT folks a clear resolution to the registration issue.

  • Safari won't delete cookies.

    I know this has been asked before but it doesn't seem to me that it's ever been resolved.
    Safari is version 6.0.5 on Lion 10.7.5. If I try to delete cookies, within a few minutes a lot, but not all of them re-appear. I want to get rid of them because I've noticed that if I visit some sites, then others, all of a sudden ads, sometimes slooooow running ads with video.
    Side note to any advertisers: Being obnoxious and stalking people isn't exactly endearing me to your products.
    I don't seem to see the same problems with FireFox, SeaMonkey, or Chrome, although I rarely use Chrome well enough to be sure. I also have an old laptop PPC running Leopard, and I've noticed that when I kill the cookies on it they're gone.
    Is there a resolution to this?
    Thanks.

    When it comes to cookie management on Safari ...  much better off using another browser.
    It's been discussed here extensively.
    Older versions of OS X such as Leopard. Cookies are not handled the same as in recent Safari versions.

  • HT1349 i pad won't turn on even after plugging into computer?

    I pad will not turn on even after plugging into computer and into wall. Any suggestions?

    Have you tried a soft-reset to see if that gets it to boot up ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo will hopefully appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Outlook shows SOME deleted messages even after restart

    I'm having a problem with deleting messages on Exchange (IMAP). This problem falls somewhere between javamail, Exchange, and Outlook. I do something like this:
        folder = store.getFolder(folderPath);
        folder.open(Folder.READ_WRITE);
        Message[] msgs = folder.getMessages();
        // do processing
        for ( Message m : msgs )
            m.setFlag( javax.mail.Flags.Flag.DELETED, true );
        folder.close(true); //  Expunge all messages w/DELETED flagThis works MOST of the time. For some reason, Outlook 2003 continues to show SOME of the deleted messages in the folder, even if I click on "Send/Receive", and even if I restart Outlook. No exceptions occur during the processing.
    I also wrote a simple program to get all messages in the folder. This program shows that there are 0 messages in the folder, but they continue to show up in Outlook. Anyone know why Outlook still displays these "phantom" messages!?
    TIA,
    Vick

    Here's a debug session sample where the folder shows 2 messages in Outlook, but none in JavaMail. The two messages in Outlook can be opened and viewed. They remain even after "Send/Receive" and restart of Outlook. These two "phantom" messages were deleted with JavaMail in a previous pass using code shown in previous post.
