How to prevent display color option settings from disappearing after a restart of Firefox?

I like to display specific text, background and link colors overriding pages' defaults; that info disappears almost after every Firefox restart. These settings are set in: Firefox>Options>Options>Content>Colors and having to reset them almost every time I start F is a pain.
An ideal solution would be to allow a user to save their color picks as a separate "theme". I would then prefer to have 3 such saved themes that would be easy to switch at a push of a button:
1. Light text on dark background (dark screen, less contrast) for a dark room;
2. Lighter text on dark background (dark screen, more contrast) for a bright room;
3. Firefox default.
Finally, replacing a color palate with few colors with a color wheel from OS would be ideal and relatively simple to implement.
This may or may not be related but preferred magnification of text on each individual page is also often lost (reset to default).

See if the following article helps.

Overriding web site colors may not be good idea because it also gets rid of background images. Some sites set background images for certain web page elements to display information that's crucial to using the site (like text for buttons).
You can use the Stylish add-on to manage user styles that change the appearance of web pages in various ways. You can click the Stylish toolbar icon and enable or disable styles that are applied to the current page.

You can install the Rainbowpicker add-on to choose any color everywhere in the Firefox interface (like Options/Preferences - Content - Colors).

  • How to prevent movies on Apple TV from disappearing?

    I used to be able to see all of my movies on Apple TV via home sharing.  Lately, they keep disappearing.  The only remedy i have found is to go into iTunes and "get Info" one by one on each movie and then it reappears on Apple TV.  I don't change a thing.  The simple action of "get Info" is enough.  Anybody have a suggestion on a better way to resolve?  I don't think going throiugh several hundred movies one by one is a great solution.
    x
    BTW - i dont think this has anything to do with it but i will share that all the movies reside on asynology NAS.  The reason i doubt that the NAS has anything to do with the issue, i can paly any of them on iTunes with no problems.  And yes, all of them are labeled with the media type = 'Movie'
    Thanks in advance for any help offered.

    Ah! Of course... I wasn't even considering this b/c I'm one of these people who almost never has his computer off b/c I work from home and also do a lot of web surfing, etc. but obviously many many people have the computer shut off much more often than it is on.
    So, alright. I see why the hard drive is there... it just seems so tempting for it to be able to be more of a stand alone device, more like another computer with iTunes on it rather than like a big iPod that sits under my TV. I guess I'll file that away in my tech wish list...

    Hello Nagaraju,
                           What you were doing is partially right.
    The correct format to write in the script is as follows :
    /:  if &PRICE& ne 0.
      &PRICE&
    /:  endif.
    This should work. Let me know how it goes.

  • How do i change my itunes settings from Australian to NZ ?

    How do i change my itunes settings from Australian to NZ ?

    If you are getting an 'account not in this country' message then try going to the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app on your iPhone and tap on your account id, tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account, and then select the Country/Region section and select New Zealand.
    If you have moved to New Zealand and want to update your details then you might be able to update your billing address by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your phone and logging into it, or you can do it via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes. If you have a credit card on your account then it will need to have been issued by a New Zealand bank and be registered to your address there.

  • How do I migrate sites and settings from CS6 to CC?

    How do I migrate sites and settings from CS6 to CC?
    Now goddam way I am going to rebuild 13 websites just to use CC

    Well. With Dreamweaver CC, you could use the Sync settings feature to transfer workspaces from one CC machine to the other.
    But with CS6 workspaces being transferred to CC there is a not so intuitive way to do it.
    Backup/Rename the CC workspace folder [resent at C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CC\configuration\workspace to anything you like.
    Copy the workspace folder from C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CS6\configuration\workspace to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CC\configuration\workspace
    Now you should have your CS6 workspaces in CC.

  • How can I restore Parental Control Settings from Time Machine Backup?

    I was trying to adjust one of the parental controlled accounts for my child.  I disabled parental controls, rebooted, and re-enabled it.  Now all the settings that I had setup before are gone.  How can I restore Parental Control Settings from Time Machine Backup?

    Hi ...
    I've found a solution to my problem.
    Time Machine locates extenal HDD backups differently depending if they were done via a network or via a USB/FireWire/Thunderbolt connection.
    My initial backup was done via a direct Thunderbolt connection. I ran into the above issue b/c the second time when I tried looking for the backup file the HDD was conencted to my iMac and I was accessing it via a network conenction.
    I simply connected the drive directly to my MacBook pro and ... voila. I was able to see the backup, select the iPhoto library and begin the restore.
    Hope this helps.
    BTW - I found this out by reading the 'blue box' selection on this page: http://pondini.org/TM/E2.html
    (Thanks goes to Pondini!)

  • I am reformatting and rebuilding my Win 7 computer.  How do I export all the settings from iTunes so I can import them into my new install?

    I need to rebuild my computer which has iTunes synced with my iPhone and iPad.  How do I export all the settings from iTunes so I can import them into the new install and not have to go through all the setup again?  My music library is my own and on a NAS drive so not going to lose it.  I am mainly concerned about setup parameters.  Thank you for any assistance.

    There's nothing to export.
    The iTunesLibrary.itl file contains all the settings, playlists, and playcounts.
    Copy or backup all your important files including the ENTIRE iTunes folder, then restore all your data including the ENTIRE iTunes folder once the system is formatted and rebuilt/reloaded.

  • Sync Notes option GONE from iTunes after ML Update?!?

    I upgraded to Mountian Lion
    Now in iTunes, under the 'Info' tab for my iPhone, I can no longer see the 'Sync Notes on this iPhone with Notes on this Computer' option.
    The checkbox & heading has COMPLETELY gone.
    I'm assuming this has something to do with ML now having a native Notes.app but this is of no use to me.
    The bulk of my notes on my iPhone were created before iCloud existed. And so they belong to the account 'On my Phone'. So even when turning on iCloud syncing for notes on the iPhone, these old notes do not transition to iCloud (A well known flaw amoungst many users I've seen on here).
    Does anyone know how else to Sync notes from an iPhone to a Mac running ML?
    Once on the Mac, I can simply turn on iCloud syncing for Notes on the Mac, then drag & drop the Notes from 'On my Mac' to 'iCloud'.
    So has anyone else noticed the Sync notes option dissapear from iTunes after upgrading to ML?

    I did what you just said (drag & drop) and ALL of my notes dissapeared off ALL of my devices AND iCloud!!!.  Fortunately I had backed up my iPhone 4 iOS 6 and still have all my notes in the iTunes backup file.  I restored that file (including my notes) and as soon as phone restarted, it re-synced with the empty iCloud Notes and notes disappeared again from my phone.  This is absolutely REDICULOUS!!!  And I'm still using Lion with latest iTunes update so I still have Sync Notes option in iTunes, BUT IT DOES NOT WORK!!!  Somebody at Apple has been drinking WAY too much.

    I have many projects made in imovie HD that are not updating to iMovie 10 on my new iMac.  Why is this not working as stated on the article HT202853?  How do I get my projects back from backup after old iMac crashed?

    According to:
    Update projects and events from previous versions of iMovie in iMovie (2014) - Apple Support
    you can update from iMovie versions 7, 8 and 9, but iMovie HD is iMovie 6.
    Maybe you can update in two steps, first from iMovie 6 to iMovie 7, 8 or 9 then to iMovie 10.

    Thanks for the response gakker, but I've double-checked the camera / iPhoto / Image Capture scenario, and I'm 100% positive it's got nothing to do with that.
    Plugging in my iPhone has no effect on anything related to this.
    The other thing I should have mentioned is that when iTunes on my Mac is NOT running, then nothing happens on my iPhone screen when I plug it in to my Mac. I only get the "Sync in progress" message when iTunes IS running.
    It's interesting though that you say you also get this "Sync in progress" message, albeit only for a second or two though.
    Can I just double-check something with you however... When you say:
    +"at no time was my iTunes playback interrupted"+
    do you mean the iTunes on your Mac? Because the problem I have is that the iPod-playback on my iPhone is interrupted.
    So can you clarify that for me, please? If you have music playing on your iPhone, and you then plug your iPhone into your Mac when iTunes is running on your Mac, does the music playback on the iPhone get interrupted?
