How do I change my security settings and make them STAY changed?

I have set my settings in Tools - Options - Privacy - Never remember history - about a thousand times now, but it never STAYS set to that. It keeps reverting back to Use custom settings for history instead, which is annoying in the extreme and is ultimately a security risk.
This has only happened since I upgraded to Firefox 4.0.1 - it was set on Never remember history in the previous version and remained on that beautifully. How do I get this newer version to retain what I set it at please???? It's driving me mental!!!!

Only if all settings are the default then you will see "Firefox will: (Never) Remember History".<br />
The "Use custom settings for history" choice reverts to "(Never) Remember history" if all History and Cookies settings are the default.<br />
If you see "Use custom settings for history" then at least one of the History / Cookie settings is not the default.
If you select "Never Remember history" then you enter Private Browsing mode and "Permanent Private Browsing mode" will be selected.

  • How to keep the Sonogram settings and make them "Sticky"?

    I am a Forensic Audio Examiner and would love to use Soundtrack Pro. Does anyone know how to keep the Sonogram settings and make them "Sticky" so you don't have to reset it every time you open up the project?
    Also the Sonogram loses it's frequency range settings while changing the zoom.
    Where is the feedback link for this application?
    Thanks

  • How can i delete messages on iMessage and have them STAY GONE?

    How can I delete messages from my iPhone and have them STAY GONE and not have them show up on my computer or iPad? Same thing, how can I delete from any of these and have them NOT show up on the other devices? If I delete on one, it stays on the other. It's a constant circle of deleting messages? I want them gone when deleted.  Maverick. iPad4th iPhone 5
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    First off.
    The "Sync" as Apple calls it is only "Display on all Devices" and nothing more.
    Deleting it on one device will not delete it on another.
    On the Mac the iMessages are stored in ~/Library/Messages in file called chat.db with a couple of supporting database items alongside.
    If you "close"  or remove the chat in the list in the Messages window (the x when you mouse over the name and pic) then the iMessage will "return" as an "Aid Memoire" to the previous conversation.
    This is local on your Mac and is nothing to do with any 'sync' over the iMessages servers.
    The longest time I have experienced was using my iPhone on a hotel WiFi on a Friday evening away form home and picking up those same iMessage on Sunday evening when I turned my Mac on.
    The iMessages servers "push" the iMessages to the devices it thinks are Registered.
    However this only happens once.  When the device has the iMessages the servers stop sending it.
    This is to stop what you seem to describe - the endless attempt to delete the same iMessages.
    It is more likely you are talking about the "history" feature.

  • How do I merge my iTunes libraries and make them accessible from multiple Systems?

    Our family has several Macs using several versions of OSX.
    My Music collection, mostly converted from my large collection of CDs, is scattered across all the Macs and several hard drives with Systems running OSX 10.6.8, 10.8.5 and 10.9.4.
    The older Macs can not be upgraded to either Mountain Lion nor Mavericks.
    My most organised library is the latest on the Mac running Mavericks. It is tidy ALAC, and has all the correct metadata such as covers, composers, ISBNs etc. So I have started by organising those onto an external 1.5 Tb Hard Drive in a folder called Central iTunes Library.
    I intend to then go through the Libraries on the other hard drives and systems and add them to this central external collection.
    1. Will I be able to open the Central Library (created in iTunes 11.2.2) on the older Macs and Systems directly, by plugging in the hard drive?
    2. Is there a better way than reopening the files from the other Systems and Hard Drives and importing them all over again into the Central Library?
         eg Drag and Drop or File > New or a Dedicated Utility for the purpose
    3. Is sharing from my Mac, the only way to let everyone access the library?
    4. Will the other Macs be able to add to the Central Library once it is shared from my Mac?
    5. How do we manage our various iPhones, iPods and iPads with one central Library?
    6. Are there any hazards to watch out for?
    7. What is the best way to have a duplicated backup of the library?
    Thanks,
    Peter

    The concept of a central library sounds great (in principle), but unless you can all follow the same rules about handling playlist/ folder/ genre naming it can get into a mess. Are you sure you want to see all of your son's & wife's music when setting up iOS syncing? I also suspect your son & wife may have a different opinion about accessing all your music (with it's larger ALAC file size) - they may be happier not sifting through all your tracks to find the ones they like for use on iOS?
    The store authorizes to the Mac not the library - so as you move around on each Mac & use your AppleID to purchase that Mac will get tied to that AppleID. That would be fine accept iTunes has a 90 day limit on changing the Apple ID on a computer. You will have to wait 3 months to switch to using another Apple ID to download music & apps on that device - that also affects apps that sync from iOS for backups.
    Personally I think that users need their own Mac with their own library (& each Mac needs to be backed up), especially if they have their own iOS device that needs syncing to a Mac. Home Sharing is ok for moving files that you want to hear from another library - but it can be bad when a client is on wifi.
    iTunes is designed to be a single user who can share over the network - it isn't intended to be one large bucket for every family member to store media, the Apple ID issue makes this pretty clear to me.
    Your flaky wifi issue sounds like a reason not to rely on anything that requires networking to work too.
    You are correct to worry about the library versions, eventually an iTunes update will alter the library format. Only machines that have that version can open the library - this happened from iTunes 10.7 to iTunes 11.
    See how many 'old libraries' you have in the Music/iTunes/Previous iTunes Libraries/ folder - that indicates how many times iTunes has backed up & upgraded the library. Is that more than expected? Major iTunes versions will need to be performed at the same time to keep it all working with the 'central music library'.
    You may be tempted to access one iTunes library over file sharing on multiple Macs. This can cause problems when one Mac updates something (placing a file lock on the library file). It's hit or miss whether the other Macs can read & write to the library.
    PJRS seems to be using a networked iTunes library - I can't understand how it works with iTunes from Tiger to 10.9? What version of iTunes is used PJRS?

  • How do i turn off automatic download and make it stay off

    I use the preferences in ITUNES to turn off automatic down loads and every time i start iTunes it  tries to force me to sign to an ICLOUD account and automatic download. I have tried everything I can find on apple help sites. But you Apple carefully stays away from the subject of how to make it stay off. I have 10.9.4 system
    and 11-3 (54) iTunes.

    Hello, jadetorchwood. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Here is an article that I would recommend going through when experiencing error -50.
    iTunes Store: "Error (-50)" when downloading purchased content
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1583
    You can also disable automatic downloads via the steps in the article below.

  • MultiTrack: How to copy mute and effects settings and shift them forward an exact amount

    I have mute and effects settings I need to shift forward.
    Let's deal with mute on and off automations settings first: I recorded mute automation for instruments on multiple tracks. I need to keep the exact mute on/off settings for the second verse, so I need to shift them forward and start them at the beggining of a specific bar (the vocals have no settings that need shifting).
    I need to copy the mute settings and apply them again at a certainbar of music.  Is this possible?
    I need to keep the original settings at the beginning of the track in place as well, so I can't grab and drag them unless it creates a copy and leaves the original mute settings in place.
    Thank you greatly, I'm working multiple projects trying to get to them all in time.

    Hello Crispin,
    I'm definitely with you on the pain of making multiple tweaks just to make everything look the same. We do not currently have a way of copying properties, but if you have an idea for how you'd think it might work, we'd love to hear from you at:
    http://ideas.adobe.com/ct/s.bix?c=DA4859AD-8934-4F93-983A-4219E2DD9275
    where we are collecting ideas for future directions for Catalyst.
    For now, I would suggest trying to factor similar portions into components as much as possible. For example, perhaps you could create an empty button with all of the effects you want (like the glow, sizing, etc), and then just create a component where that button is above the text and image for a specific button. That way, when you change the appearance of your single button component definition, the appearance will change for all of your buttons. If you got really carried away, you could even create a custom component where each of the states is a different image / text pair, and just set the state of that component for each instance on the artboard.

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then steps 1 to 5 on the page that you posted from should let you reset them : go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account, then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you won't get the reset option - you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get the questions reset.
    e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
    or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use, or if it's available in your country you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570

  • Every time I try to purchase a song from itunes, it says I have to put in security questions and answer them, which it's never done before. Then after I do the questions, it says that an error occurred and my changes couldn't be saved. HELP!

    Every time I try to purchase a song from itunes, it says I have to put in security questions and answer them, which it's never done before. Then after I do the questions, it says that an error occurred and my changes couldn't be saved. It has been doing this for weeks, and I can't purchase anything! HELP!

    Hi mterry1723, one solution that might be worth trying is this:
    - Close iTunes, if it's open
    - Open Safari and got to 'Preferences'
    - Select 'Security' on the top
    - Untick all the security options in the menu
    - Click the 'Show Cookies' button and look for all the 'apple' entries in the left-hand column.
    - Highlight them (select them collectively) and press 'Remove'
    - Now open iTunes and buy the song as usual.
    - You may be asked to do the same security process as before, so do as asked.
    - Hopefully, the security check will now have accepted your answers and start downloading the song as normal.
    Remember to re-tick all the required security options you had just un-ticked in Safari preferences. You don't need to bother about opening the cookies again.
    I hope this has worked for you and my profoundest apologies if it has not. Worth a go, though!
    I did see this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/message/18259935#18259935 which may be of more help, mainly the last entry by 'c2boyd'

    I plugged my iphone 4 up to itunes and it reset my phone to the factory settings and erasaed all of my emails, texts, apps, and recently added contacts.  How can I restore my previous settings and information?

    iTunes doesn't just restore a phone to factory settings all by itself.  You must have selected the incorrect button.
    In any case, if there was a previous backup of your phone, you can restore your phone from this backup.  Any new data you added to your phone since this backup is gone.
    If you have no backup, then your data is gone.

  • IE 7 patch resets security settings and disables Apex login

    I have a working Apex app, and the users must use IE as one of our other applications is not certified for Firefox. Well, everything was working fine on Thursday, we were off Friday. This morning, the main Login button doesn't do anything, and I can't even log into the dev console. Firefox does seem to work.
    It seems patch KB980182 resets some security settings, and the Login button doesn't do anything.
    I set added my site to the Trusted Site list and everything is working now. Just another notch on my "I hate MS" totem.

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.
