History automatically clears itself when it's older than one month

If I don't visit a site within a month, Firefox will automatically clear it. I checked all my add-ons and I don't think those are the cause and my Privacy tab is set to "Remember history".
I think this just happened a month or two ago

Hi lunarskies,
Are you saying that the actual history is deleted and it shows that you have never been to the site or that you are logged out of the site? These are two separate things. Many sites will log you out after a certain period for security reasons. You can just use the built in password manager to log back in.
If your history is actually being removed, you might want to try the steps in [[Preferences are not saved]]. You could also try [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Managing-profiles?s=create+a+new+profile&r=2&e=es&as=s#w_creating-a-profile creating a new profile]. That should clear up an odd settings conflicts or issues with corrupt files.
Hopefully this helps!

All photos older than one month have disappeared!

I opened iPhoto yesterday and discovered that all my photos older than one month have simply vanished from the library as well all my many folders that I had organized them into. I got a message saying that my folders were being synched, or something like that, so I waited several hours, but the photos and folders never came back.
I had over 3,000 photos, including many that were scanned in, collected over a number of years, and had gone through many of them marking "faces" and "places." I have most of them elsewhere, although not organized as I had them in iPhoto. Has anyone encountered this before? Are they really gone or are they hiding somewhere?

The best fix is to restore from your back up.
Other than that:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Trying to find "history" older than a month on my computer

HT2376 How do i retrieve a lost key code for Pro if it is older than 18 months ? which is the longest you can look at on the orders history page.

I Upgraded to quicktime pro years ago on my pc , then when i got a mac i purchased another copy for mac. I ve now gone back to pc and want to retrieve my old key code. The check your order history only goes back 18 months and i think i got mine about 4 years ago . Any advice ? or do i need to buy another copy . Cheers

Regardless of what any of us think, the fact is that Apple no longer provides lookup of orders older than 18 months. Why they chose this none of us here can say, but that's what they have decided. So it's no longer possible to look up a QuickTime key purchased more than 18 months ago. If the user failed to keep a copy of the email or otherwise record the key, as Apple themselves advise, then a new QT Pro key will be required.
Regards.

Firefox is slowly deleted my browser history older than 6 months. How do I keep history forever?

I just noticed that my browser history older than 6 months is slowly being deleted day by day. How do I prevent this from happening? This has only started happening recently. I have my settings as "Remember history". I want to keep all my history forever. Are there any configurations I can make to achieve this?
Thanks for your time.

Firefox automatically calculates how many pages to keep without affecting performance and saves that value in the transient_max_pages pref.
You can create a max_pages pref to override that current maximum, but it is better to leave those prefs at their default.
You can see the current value via the read-only pref places.history.expiration.transient_max_pages on the about:config page.

Why is my macbook DVD player no longer playing commercial DVD's that it used to play perfectly? It reads the disc, but then says not permitted when I hit play. It is much older than 12 months warantee so I hope there is an easy fix?

The macbook reads a disc, and opens up DVD player but then says not permitted when I hit play, or any other button. Sometimes the initial music plays, but the screen remains black and then it all stops. These are shop bought DVD's that have previously worked on here, and work in DVD players, but have suddenly stopped. The computer is much older than the12 months warantee so I hope there is an easy fix? Thankyou!

Three things you can try:
1. Clean the superdrive with a proprietory CD/DVD lens cleaner that uses tiny brushes.
2. Perform an SMC reset:

If you are using a Wireless Keyboard:

3. Try the free DVD player VLC:

which performs better than the built-in DVD Player.

I accidentally deleted the tab marked "older than 6 months" on the history for firefox how do I fix it?

I was trying to view the history on FireFox and I accidentally deleted the tab for "older than 6 months" how do I get it back? or will it come back on its own? someone please help.

Additionally If you have Sync or any other form of backup, you can try to restore the history. You can also try to restore an older '''places.sqlite''' in the Firefox profile directory: '''Help''' ('''Alt''' + '''H''') > '''Troubleshooting Info''' > '''Show Folder'''.

When creating a photo book, how can one import photos older than 12 months?

I am trying to create a photo book (I'm using iPhoto 11). For my project, I'm trying to access photos older than 12 months, but that is not an option in the photo library at the right of the screen.
I have tried to click and drag the old photos into my project event. They show up fine in "photos" but do not show up in the photo library!
I have also found that photos downloaded from a CD do not show up in the photo library either.
Anyone have any thoughts?

You can not - they are soreted by date
-- the only solution I have seen is to put them in an album sorted the way you and and then use the batch cnage command to redate them with a small invrement between so a data sort matches your desired sort -- I personally do not want to redate a bunch of my photos nor do i want to have to go through and un-re- date a bunch
suggest a change to Apple - iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback

When I open more than one tab with ikls.ru web site - safari freeze immediately.

I have a Lion OS and all updates. When I open more than one tab with ikls.ru web site - safari are freezing immediately.

In safe mode the same problem in Safari. And I couldn't enable the guest account. You can see an attached pic. It's in Russian, but I think it's clear. I took a pic in a safe mode, but in normal mode it's the same.

HT3275 I've 1.85TB empty space on my time Machine, but it only backs up to the beginning of the previous month. it should have weekly back-ups for every month before that. Any ideas why it deletes stuff older than a month?

I've 1.85TB empty space on my Time Machine, but it only retains back-ups to the beginning of the previous month. I should be able to access weekly back-ups for every month before that until the disk is full. Any ideas why it deletes stuff older than a month?
Thanks, Rigby.

If you are using Ethernet to connect your Mac to the Time Capsule, are you allowing at least 2-3 minutes for Time Machine to fully load when you open the application to see your backups?
If you are using wireless to connect, you may need to allow 8-10 minutes or longer for everything to fully load, depending on the speed of your wireless connection.
If you see only white time "bars" on the timeline at the right of the screen, you are seeing temporary backups. Permanent backups are displayed with purple "bars".

KEEP events older than 1 month

I fear I may be one of the more unusual iCal/iSync users in that I need to retain ALL prior events in my calendar when syncing with my Sony Ericsson W850i. I appear to only have 4 options in iSync - none of which allow me to keep events older than 1 month. Does anyone have a workaround for this? ...or am I just being stupid?

Thanks for your response Julian - it might not be the answer I wanted but I appreciate your time and information. My life isn't that exciting so it actually isn't a huge amount of data that needs syncing - there are just key dates that I sometimes need to have handy when I'm out and about. I've been syncing the lot with Sony Ericsson's latest PC Suite which is surprisingly quite good but sadly isn't available for Mac (I am brand spanking new to the world of the Mac and mostly enjoying it enormously !!). I think what I was hoping is that someone would have one of those cheeky Terminal commands that 'simply' amends that specific criteria... ah well. Perhaps I can ask another quick one - if I do sync with iSync I take it that iCal will retain all my older events regardless of what gets synced to the mobile?

Pen pressure sensitivity stops when I have more than one window open

I recently upgraded to Flash CC and have noticed some new bugs. Here's one of them:
When I have more than one document open at a time, my pen pressure sensitivity stops working. In fact, it seems to work on the newest opened document, but will stop working on any previosuly opened documents. If all but one document is closed, the pen pressure returns.
I'm using Windows 8, and a Cintiq 21UX.
Steps to reproduce:
- Launch Flash.
- Open a new document.
- Select the "Brush" tool.
- Toggle "Use pressure" in the tool bar.
- Draw something to make sure the pen pressure is working.
- Open a new document.
- Draw something to make sure the pen pressure is working.
- Return to the previous document and attempt to draw.
- Notice how the pen pressure is absent.
Any help or suggestions would be great. Thank you.

No problem. I've been using older versions of Flash until CC gets the bugs squashed. This pressure issue is a deal breaker for my coworkers and me, and also this audio one: http://forums.adobe.com/message/6013488?tstart=0

Archiving orders in CSC which are older than 6 months.

Hi All - We are trying to implement this as we are facing lot of performance issues in PRODUCTION CSC. Anybody who knows, what configuration can control indexing date wise and delete orders indexed, older than 6 months?

Interesting. I changed them all to 720 and expired.sites to 50000 just for the heck of it.
Now how to import my old history back in. I have FEBE and and old backuup from March 2010. It has history back to 10.2009 in it's places.sqlite. I have also exported that history as history.json.
After creating dummy FF profiles and dummy xmarks accounts, then disabling Firefox sync:
I have tried having FEBE restore that history. It does not merge the two, it only replaces.
I tried having Xmarks sync my current history with that history. So far it seems to only delete most of the old history and insert the new. Now that I have changed the history values we spoke of in about:config I might try this approach again. I actually don't know what the Xmarks history limits are yet because the feature is very new. (Little nervous)
I also have Firefox Sync to mess around with but not sure if I trust it since it doesn't have an overwrite or restore option.
Any other ideas?
