Fx Print - not remembering settings though i saved them

Hello:
I am not sure why, but the Fx Print Dialog is not remembering my settings.
see screenshot:
I desire the settings:
> print selection only
> and I choose print to PDF
I am a bit bored of having to choose these 2 settings EVERY single time i print a page. I never print as in print out. Always to PDF.
I have made these 2 changes, clicked preset and said save. But still Fx does not register I have done this.
Maybe these 2 settings cannot be remembered.
So if anyone knows how i can have these 2 settings remembered, please lmk. All I want to do is click my print icon on my toolbar and these 2 settings be defaulted. I always select the content (e.g. without the headings etc..) then I click the print icon.
thankyou for your help in advance.

Try this from the Presets: select "Save Current Settings as Preset.." and select for this printer only.

All my contacts have been wiped even though i saved them to the cloud. how do i retrieve them!?

All my contacts have been wiped even though i saved them to icloud. Seems I have deleted them from my Mac before selling, and it deleted from the cloud, and my IPhone and IPad now have followed suit and removed all the contacts there also... How do i retrieve them!? Or are they lost now...

A friend of mine gave me some information on this when I told him what I was experiencing. If you save your details to the iCloud some time ago and the device you are using now is on a different iOS, then it will not retrieve the details properly.
I updated my old iPhone4 to iOS6.01 or whatever the latest one is and backed up the info to the iCloud. Then updated my iPhone4S to the same iOS and RESET it, switched it on and went through the setup process again and it successfully pulled the information from the iCloud to my iPhone4S.

Print dialog not remembering settings

I have a very simple saved setting for my Lexmark E332n printer that sets the paper feed to manual. The problem is that since upgrading to Leopard, the manual paper feed setting is not remembered. In fact I have tried deleting the saved setting, setting the paper feed to manual and then saving that... and watching manual feed be reset to Auto-Feed with no other intervention on my part. Saved print settings are a great feature. I hope Apple can fix this problem so that it again works as well it did in Tiger.
By the way, I downloaded and installed the latest drivers on the Lexmark web site, and I'm getting the same behavior before and after doing so.

Windows not remembering settings in MacBook Pro 15"

hey all,
I have a MacBook Pro 15" released in 2008. I have dual booting set up between Mac OS X.5.6 and Windows XP. I have what I'd consider a unique problem but may be someone else out there has had similar issues.
Every time I launch into Windows, *it does not remember any of my settings such as my bluetooth wireless mighty mouse and my bluetooth wireless rocketfish keyboard or to use my external 28 inch Hannspree monitor as my primary.* I don't care so much about windows not remembering my monitor preference but it would be nice every time I log into windows having my mouse and keyboard ready to go.
When I launch into OS X, it remembers everything, from the external keyboard and mouse to setting the dock and top bar to the external 28 inch monitor.
Any thoughts on how to get this to work in Windows. Is there some some application that can do this.
Thanks,
Doug

Is this what you've tried:
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.

Location bar under privacy tab not remembering settings

Ever since Firefox 16 and 17 versions came out I've always had this issue with the location bar not remembering my option. "When using the location bar, suggest: Nothing." Is what I prefer but if I ever reboot my computer or simply restart firefox over all, it always goes back to the option "History and Bookmarks." I find this very annoying. The reason I waited so long to report this is because I had hoped the next version of Firefox would take care of it. Is there anything I can do to fix this problem or will I have to simply wait till it's fixed by Firefox itself?

Unfortunately, that didn't help me. I went ahead and uninstalled Firefox completely without saving any customizations and reinstalled it. Seems to work fine now.

Audio MIDI Setup not remembering settings on startup

On a Macbook 1,1 Intel Core Duo 2 GHz, SMC Version 1.4f12, OS X 10.4.8, Aggregate Device @ 2ch-24bit/96000.0 Hz:
The Audio MIDI Setup does not remember the 'Default Output' as 'Aggregate Device' and although 'Aggregate Device' is shown in the Properties For: field, only the 'Audio Input' area is shown.
Changing or re-selecting the Sample Rate under 'Format:' results in 'Aggregate Device' appearing in the 'Default Output:' field and the 'Audio Output' area showing the configuration.
I have to perform these steps every time I startup. I had the same behavior on my previous MacBook with identical specs but a different build week.
Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but Apple has absolutely no way to e-mail technical support queries unless you purchase that 'feature'? You have to call them with each 'bug' or technical difficulty?
Thanks!
Matt

Ah, Ok. Turns out the issue I described only occurs when there's an optical digital cable plugged into the output at startup.
Unplugging it and restarting does not return Audio MIDI Setup to it's previous behavior. Deleting the second of those two files you mentioned then performing the steps I first reported and then restarting without the optical digital cable inserted returns things to 'normal' and after numerous reboots continues to work as normal.
So, if I ever start up the MacBook with the digital optical cable inserted I will have to delete the .plist file if I want the proper behavior to return. Seems like a bug to me...
Thanks!

Leopard not remembering settings?

Hello,
I'm currently having a problem with Leopard remembering my settings. Whenever I open Firefox, it asks me if I would like to set Firefox as my default browser. I always say yes, but when I restart my computer Safari has been reset as the default browser. So, Firefox asks me again if I would like to make it my default browser.
This also happens with my firewall settings. Every time I open iChat it asks me if I would like to allow iChatAgent through the firewall. I say yes, but the setting never sticks.
Has anybody else experienced this? Does anybody know how to fix this?

I had this issue until I used a free app that allows much more control over the default apps and which extensions open which app's, I still really haven't found where you get access to it in a global setup format, going to Info and selecting what the file uses just would take forever. Go here -> http://www.rubicode.com/Software/RCDefaultApp/
its a system preference plug in (you simply drop it on the the system preference box when the app is open) and it will allow you to adjust what opens for internet, what opens for a .txt or a .text or a .Idontcare. etc etc. Very cool app that helps you see what you managed to get your settings set to all in one area. Hope that helps. Also with all the weirdness going on with Leopard and its new ACL's, have you ran a verify/repair disk permissions, as the settings that are adjusted could be unwritable and thus why your not getting the results you want. Hope that helps.

Adobe flash player not remembering settings

i just bought a brand new hp laptop and im having some difficiculty with adobe flash player 10. i am running it on vista x64 and in firefox but whenever i run something like gmail's video chat, it asks me everytime to 'allow' it. i have tried going to the settings and allowing the gmail to 'allow' access to my webcam and voice recorder and click on 'always' but it never actually saves the changes. the same is true when i come to the adobe site and try to change the global settings. nothing i change in any of the settings will save. its pretty frustrating i tried looking into it some and it sounded like the problem may be that im running it at x64. im not sure if this is the case tho. im clueless, hence this thread. also, i'm not sure if there is any correlation, but i can't get the music player on myspace profiles to show up, not a major concern to me tho.

Check out this article and see whether anything there helps: [[Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox]].
Also, you probably want to look under Tools > Add-ons > Plugins for Shockwave Flash.

Finder not remembering settings

Finder has suddenly stopped remembering my display settings.
What can I do?

How are you accessing the Applications folder? It actually makes a difference. Thus, if I double-click my hard drive icon on the Desktop, I get a Finder window in Column view. If I then click on the Applications folder it will open in Column view too, because the view is propagated from the parent window. However, if I click on the Applications icon in the Sidebar, then it opens in its own default of List view. If I make an alias of the Applications folder and put it on the Desktop, and double-click the alias, it opens in List view. Also, if you use the Back button you will get a view from whatever the folder you were in is set to (this is probably a bug). If I access the Applications folder from the Go menu, or with the keyboard shortcut of Command-Shift-a it will open in List view.
The preference for a folder's default state is stored in the invisible .DS_Store file. Occasionally this file becomes corrupt. If that is the case you would need to use Terminal to remove it.

New Firefox not remembering settings or guessing domains

Ever since I updated to the new Firefox 4.0 it will no longer remember my changed settings.
I changed my settings so that when I type into my location bar it searches on google but now I have to keep changing it as it keeps reverting back to the old settings. Plus, it will no longer perform domain guessing since I updated.

See:
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
You can modify the pref keyword.URL on the about:config page to use Google's "I'm Feeling Lucky" or Google's "Browse By Name".
* Google "I'm Feeling Lucky": http://www.google.com/search?btnI=I%27m+Feeling+Lucky&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=
* Google "Browse by Name": http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=

Google and other sites does not remember settings

I am setting up google to show 100 results at a time, but it always returns to 10 results.
Also another site forgets my settings for search for news on the site.
Have checked that cookies are allowed and does not expire.

Google recently made some changes to the Google search site with the addition of Instant search and that made the setting of the number of results in the Google settings to stop working.
If Instant search is enabled on the [http://www.google.com/preferences?hl=en Google Search settings] page (link at the top right) then you only get 10 results. 
You have to disable instant search and reload the result page and then set the number of results to your preferred choice. 
It may not work if you make both changes at the same time. 
There is a link directly to the right of the Google search field on the Google results page. 
That is a button with a drop down list: Instant is On/Off. 
There is also a radio check box on the Google Settings page, that has replaced the previously used Suggestions. 
* http://www.google.com/preferences?hl=en
Google Instant:
* Use Google Instant — predictions and results appear while typing
* Do not use Google Instant

I receive PDFs attached to emails. When I open them and try to save them, it takes me to a temporary location on the C drive, and does not remember where I last saved a PDF.

This happens on every PDF I open from an email. The PDF opens fine, but when I go to save it I end up in a temporary location, which bears no resemblance to the location I was last in when I had to navigate to it. I am saving documents on a network location.
I am running Windows 7 SP1, and am using Adobe Reader 11.0.5
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks,
Tania

This is the appropriate behavior.. Most email programs (browsers too) store attachments (or files) in a cache area. You then need to do a save as to more them to a different location. The plug-in is finding the pdf in the location determined by the email program, so that is the last place the plug-in used. It doesn’t have a different location to use.

I can't get my printer to print. It says printer not connected even though I connected it earlier and it printed once.

I need help in getting my printer to print

What kind of printer is it? Did you look at the "More Like This" sidebar?

Korg Monopoly not remembering settings

I've been trying to use Korg Monopoly with mainstage. However, when I save and reload a concert, it doesn't reliably recall the monopoly patch (mainstage 8). Is there any work-around?

IPhoto does not remember faces when I name them in another person's batch

I have been tagging faces in iPhoto 11 for the last few hours on my Retina MBP. In severeal cases I used the option of naming the face when it appeared in the wrong person's batch (ctrl+click > name). But then the "named" photos do not appear in that person's list of photos.
I.e. - I have 26 potential photos of Bob. I go through them and see a photo of Dan. I ctrl+click on that photo and choose "name" and then type in Dan. After I am done with Bob's photos I go to Dan's folder (via the Faces corkboard) and I do not see the photo I named before anywhere.

Faces has identified the wrong person.
Actually iPhoto does not identify people - iPhoto suggests and you confirm or reject so you confirmed incorrectly (which happens to all of us)
How do I re-assign to the correct person?
double click on the photo to open it and click on "name" and type the correct name for the person
Mary and Jane are in a group picture and have been identified by iPhoto, not me.
In Mary's Faces album, Jane's picture is the thumbnail. In a way, the group picture is correct. I would rather have all of Mary's thumbnails show Mary.
The choice offered by iPhoto is accept or reject. Going into Edit for the pictures does not give the option to identify faces.
If you reject the person will remain un-named- and in the confirm names mode (starting with version 8.0.2) if you right click (control click) on the photo you can accept, reject or name
I am reluctant to reject because the group picture may not show up again.
You can always make a smart album with name is unnamed and find all photos with unnamed people (started in version 8.0.2)
