How to make Illustrator remember color settings?

Hello!
The quick color selector in the main toolbar (fill and stroke) always resets their thumbnail sizes whenever I quit Illustrator.
I use a 27" monitor and prefer large thumbnails in my fill and stroke palette in the toolbar - but is there no way to make Illustrator "save" the settings when I change it to large thumbnails?

Can't help you but just to confirm that this is the case (I'm using CS5 Win7). No way to make Illustrator remember the settings - they programmed it as bad as it is and I don't think there is a way at least using the UI.
You can use this link to post a feature request http://forums.adobe.com/community/illustrator/illustrator_feature_requests although I think this can be considered as a bug.
by the way, it is called the Control panel which by default is the horizontal bar under the main menu - the Toolbar is the vertical bar with tools on the left side.
Alternatively meanwhile you can increase the size of the swatches in the Swatches panel which luckily Illustrator remembers.

Can't Make Airport Connection to Network

Just set up new wireless network with new cable modem (Motorola) and wireless router (Netgear) booth provided by cable company. Have gotten iMac and iPhone to connect to the network without a hitch but cannot get the G4 with internal airport card to get with the program. Was previously operating the G4 with another wireless network at another location.
I have tried to duplicate the current settings of the iMac on the G4 and still the G4 is not recognizing the network. Using WPA2 Personal Security. Have deleted all other network locations and tried to eliminate everything else that might be confusing the G4 with the previous setup (with the exception of the old network password which I can do if necessary). Have tried network diagnostics, etc., but no luck.
Can connect to the internet via ethernet no problem, but would like to get rid of the 25 foot wire running through the living room.
Don't know what other information you might be needed to help me trouble shoot this, but will stay active here at the forum and respond quickly if someone wants to help me with this.
Thx!

Just research the Netgear details and it seems there is an option to choose to override the default MAC address by either choosing "use this MAC" or "Use Computer MAC".
I read in another forum question something similar to this was the problem. When I hardwire the G4 to the Netgear, it recognizes the G4 MAC address but there is no IP address listed whereas the iMac has both listed........
There is also an advanced wireless settings window where I can choose to list the PC's, but then it states:
The Wireless Card Access Setup page displays a list of wireless PCs that will be allowed to connect to the router based on their MAC addresses. These wireless PCs must also have the correct SSID and WEP settings configured on the Wireless Settings page to access the wireless network.
Because it mentions WEP settings do you think this advanced setting is for pc's that can't utilize WPA or do you think this might be a viable workaround?

How to make PowerBook remember screen layouts from small screen to Cinema

I'm using a 23" Cinema Display with my G4 Powerbook. But I often disconnect the display if I need to take the Powerbook with me around the office.
When I do this, I have to reposition all my windows - finder and apps - where I want them on the small screen. Then, when I reconnect to the Cinema Display, I have to reposition them all over again.
Some apps seem to do this fairly well themselves - like Photoshop and InDesign - but others don't.
Is there some way for me to get the Mac to remember the positions of all the windows in each configuration, so I can just switch between them... a bit like the "Location" (under the Apple menu) does for my network settings?
Thanks for any advice.

I don't think that you'll be able to use the HDMI port - I don't think!
Rather, what you would need is a Thunderbolt/Mini DisplayPort to VGA (if that's what the monitor has) adapter -> http://www.monoprice.com/Product?c_id=104&cp_id=10428&cs_id=1042802&p_id=5107&se q=1&format=2.
Good luck,
Clinton
P.S. Does your monitor have any other input ports? DVI would be best.

The add-on "Expire history by days" doesn't work for me. How to make firefox remember my history for longer?

Hi, With the recent updates firefox no longer keeps my browsing history for over 7 days. It makes things difficult for me because I could no longer keep track of some of the things I do. Is there any way to keep the browsing history longer?
Someone previously suggested the add-on "Expire history by days". It sometimes would keep the history for over a month and the next day all history older than a few days are completely gone! Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Firefox keeps both bookmarks and history in the same database a file called ''places.sqlite''.
The addon may in fact restrict the options and prevent Firefox storing more History.
Try using the addon ''Places Maintenance'' and run the report option BEFORE and after any repair attempt. It may not help but at least produces a short potentially useful report in simple text format. You can paste the reports into your next reply.
* https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/places-maintenance/
Note both addons are by the same person, someone that has worked on Firefox and the author even added a warning
* https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/expire-history-by-days <blockquote>Warning: the Places expiration system works to provide you the best performances in an automatic way. Using this add-on to override its functionality, may create unexpected performance problems and is not needed.

You apparently already have plans regarding freeing up space.
If you are short on free space on the hard disk History is the least of your concerns. Window XP is happiest with at least 20-25% free space. Defrag attempts will fail at about 12%. Do not use the hibernate option if low on disk space, because that will free up an amount equivalent to the RAM memory installed. Defrag if you can. This is not a Windows support forum, so I may only post short tips and suggestions of where else to try

How to make Safari remember Zoom Lever

I would like to load automaticly with a certain zoom level. When the page loads I have to constantly hit the command key then the + key so the page is large enough to read. I don't want to increase the font size but just to save this zoom level so next time I load this same page it is at the correct zoom level.
How to do it without using the extantions or changing CSS? Or how to write to Apple about it?
Thank you!

You can provide feedback to Apple here.
Unfortunately, there's no way to have Safari permanently remember the zoom level but check out the options in System Preferences > Accessibility.
Select Zoom on the left.
Alternatively, the Firefox browser offers other ways of handling text sizes on webpages.

How do I clear the

How to make Airport Express "talk" to WD My Cloud?

Unfortunately I can't get my 1 st gen. Airport Express to work with my WD MyCloud due to some authentication/ firewall problems. I understand that the Airport router can't understand UPnP so I need to work around this issue with port forwarding. I've tried to set this up but it doesn't work. I know this can be done but I have yet to find the path that will work for my setup. I run a MacBook Pro 10.9.2. Been inside the airport utility and tried to set up ports but I seem to get something wrong somewhere. Any help is appreciated.

The AirPort Express is a VPN pass-through device. To create a VPN you would need, as a minimum, a VPN server and a VPN client.
In this case the Express would need to have Internet access and provide a private network for a VPN client.

How to make firefox remember the main web address of each website instead of it remembering URLs history?

Whenever you visit a website such as youtube.com and have searched for videos on the site, firefox remembers all these URLs the next time round you attempt to type youtube.com into the address bar. I find it frustrating because all I want to see is a neat list of websites beginning with the letter 'y' when I begin typing 'youtube' such as youtube.com or yahoo.com, etc. I don't want to see everything else otherwise it just looks messy - you end up having to click on one of the URLs to get to the site again or you end up retyping the main address out yourself (some main web addresses are long!).
Is there an option in firefox where you can have it only remember the main web address of the sites you have visited instead of all the URLs visited on those sites? I'm not talking about deleting the entire history, just for the address bar to remember a simple list of sites such as google.co.uk, yahoo.com, youtube.com, outlook.com, etc.
If something like this doesn't exist then I wish someone would give us the option to do that.

Pick a page you like for that site, then bookmark it. In the future,
just select the bookmark.

How to make LR remember the Crop Ratio

Is there a way to have LR remember a crop ratio so you don't have to always re-selected it again when you move to another image?
I needed to crop over a 100 photos to 5x7. I would select crop, then choose 5x7, adjust the crop to what I want, and move to the next image. The Crop ratio would be at the original, so I would have to re select 5x7 for every image. What am I doing wrong?

Select all 100 in Grid view, expand the Quick Develop panel, click the Saved Preset drop down, click the Crop Ratio drop down menu and apply 5x7.
Press R to jump to Crop mode and tweak composition as needed.

How to make Premiere remember the sequences in the sequence panel when re-opening the project?

I've got a project I've been editing on ( a feature film) which consists of 100 scenes which are roughly in 100 sequences plus about 100 more sequences from the dialies during the shoot. In the sequence panel I have usually a couple sequences open and of course the master. Then I save it, shut down Premiere, restart it and then later I load the project back in. The result is a complete random selection of sequences in the sequence panel (usually the old dailes) but never the ones I worked on when I saved the project. Anything I can do so that Premiere remembers which sequences I edited on when I saved it?

You did not state what version of PP you are using. However, this was a known issue and was fixed in the 8.2.2 update. What you have to do is create a new project file in 8.2.2. and import the entire project you are having the problem with then save.
Even though this issue was fixed in 8.2.2, just by opening and re-saving a project file will not resolve it. As stated, you have to create a new project file from within 8.2.2., import your current project then save. That will resolve it.

How do I add a website to remember the password after I have been to it before? I didn't know how to make the website remember the password initially.

I want to have firefox remember a password on some sites that I have already been to previously. When it asked me initially, I didn't know how to make it remember. Now I would like for it to remember that site. Please explain how to do this.

If you clicked "Never" then you have created an exception that you need to remove.<br />
Otherwise Firefox should offer to store the name and password on the next visit when you sign on.
Remove site(s) from the Exceptions:

Can I use my airport to see how many devices are on my network?

Can I use my airport to see how many devices are on my network?

No, that info was removed from the airport utility at v6 toyland edition.
The last real utility was 5.6.1 and although it is not actually supposed to work on AC model it does sometimes.
But you can generally see what is on your network using the netstat command in the computer..
Open the network utility and go to the netstat page and run scan.. this can take a few minutes.. and should show all the clients as well as the router/s. At least all the ones the computer can see.
The network utility is under utilized as people seem to not know of it.
There are iOS tools like this as well. Sorry but I don't remember the name/s.
