How to stop formspring from automatically signing me in when nothing appears in "saved passwords."

This isn't much of a problem, rather an annoyance. On my computer, a laptop, Firefox keeps logging me in automatically to formspring.me. I've gone to Tools>Options>Security>Saved Passwords and there's not a single password saved in there or a website - it's empty. I've signed out of formspring.me and signed in manually and made sure that the "remember me on this computer" box was unchecked and signed in, signed out and refreshed and Firefox still signs me in automatically. How do I stop this from happening?

I went to Tools > Options > Privacy and I don't see "Cookies." The only things I see are these:
"History:
Firefox will: Never remember history
Firefox will use the same settings as private browsing, and will not remember any history as you browse the web.
You may also want to clear all current history.
Location Bar:
When using the location bar, suggest: Nothing.
OK, Cancel, Help"
If it counts for anything, I'm currently using Firefox 3.6.13.

  • How to stop Acrobat from automatically opening created PDF?

    This may be a question asked elsewhere, but my search didn't find it.
    How can I stop Acrobat from automatically opening every PDF that I create in Adobe Reader?  I'm using using Acrobat 6.0 Pro.
    Thanks for your help with this major annoyance!
    Cheers.

    Adobe does not recommend Reader and Acrobat both be installed. They have strange interactions and can cause problems. If you do not have problems, you are lucky. Part of the problem is that they leave a part resident to enable quick opening. If it works for you, then fine. If you have some problems, you at least have an idea of what a prime candidate is for the error.

  • How do I stop Firefox from automatically signing in every time I restart

    About a week ago, Firefox started automatically signing in whenever I have restarted or shutdown and then turned laptop back on again.
    After the usual icons and stuff has reappeared on desktop, suddenly Firefox starts opening/signing in, without my asking it to open a window and sign in.
    This is occurring whether I've checked to "save and restore at start-up" or to "save and quit".
    Sometimes I want to do other work prior to signing into Firefox again.
    I have repeatedly reviewed Tools/Options in search of a setting to adjust. From researching this problem on the web, the only direction I found was to UNcheck "Accept Third Party Cookies" from Privacy settings.
    I tried this, to no avail.
    I don't know where else to look for whatever setting I need to adjust to have things the way they always were before -- namely, to sign in when I would click on Firefox icon, and it would then open up Firefox to either homepage or to restoring the tabs that I last had open.

    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    NOTE: this is not the same as routinely backing up your entire iPhoto library folder to protect your photos. It only protects the loss of your organizational efforts that the database file contains.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

  • Can I stop iPhoto from automatically mounting the iPhone, When iPhoto open?

    I use other software to grab my photos, and I use the import option to put my pictures into iPhoto. I also like to keep a lot of photos on my iPhone and whilst browsing my iPhoto library (it's always opened at startup) sometimes I want to charge the iPhone, or sync iTunes etc - it takes me away from my library I was half way through arranging and then I have to wait whilst it shows me the photos again. I can right click and unmount, but later on it comes back - I have to exit or unplug. Both of which I don't want to do. I don't want it to appear in iPhoto under devices unless I say so. It's an unwanted hassle.
    Apart from that, I am happy with it!

    open iPhoto (or image capture) and the preferences set action when camera is connected to do nothing (or to open your selected program) to stop iPhoto from being launched when you connect your iPhone

  • How to stop images from automatically brightening in lightroom 2

    I have been using lightroom 2 for a few months now and what I can't seem to figure out is once I import my images, and I start to preview them the images will automatically alter (saying rendering image), usually creating an image that is brighter and duller than my original image taken with my camera.  I want to stop this so my images will hold the vibrance my camera has already created.  I seem to be spending more time adjusting the images back to the original presets.  Anyone know how to change this setting?

  • How do I stop Safari from automatically loading a URL when I start typing the first few letters in the URL/search bar?

    My question concerns a bug (or feature, I'm not sure which) that I've been seeing for some time on my Safari installations.
    I'm running Lion (the latest patched version) with Safari (ditto). I've noticed that every so often, if I open a new tab and start typing something in the search/URL bar, Safari will not only suggest something based on my history, but will actually begin loading the page as though I had accepted that suggestion.
    For example, today, I typed the letter "b" in the search/URL bar, paused for a few seconds while I was thinking of what to type next, and Safari went ahead and loaded "bugzilla.gnome.org" based on that being the last URL starting with "b" that I happened to have gone to. And the same thing has happened to me on earlier occasions with different web sites. In other words, it's not merely giving me a suggestion, it then proceeds as though I had accepted that suggestion. Sometimes it might happen to be right, but it's the principle of the thing.
    Needless to say, I hadn't inadvertently bumped the Enter key.
    Of course, ordinarily, Safari will just offer a list of suggestions based on my bookmarks and browsing history, maybe filling out the URL bar with the topmost suggestion (while giving me the option of overtyping it if I wish). And, of course, this happens without fail if I've just had Safari preempt me by loading a page and am trying to find out why. Like the best Heisenbugs, this "feature" goes away as soon as I make a concerted attempt to study it.
    I have completely disabled AutoFill in the Preferences dialog. I would clear the cache and history, except that I kind of resent having to do that every time (or turn on private browsing, possibly another option) just to stop the computer from executing an instruction that I haven't even finished giving it yet (and in many cases intend to change).
    Has anyone else seen or been able to disable this feature?

  • How do I stop Firefox from automatically filling in the spaces for my username and password on one of my password protected websites?

    Firefox is automatically entering my username and password on my Sacramento State University secure password site. I am trying to get that function stopped. I do not want my username and password automatically entered in the spaces provided for log in. I want to manually enter that information myself each time I log in to that particular secure password protected site.
    So far...I can not find a way to do that. All I find is a way to change my password. I do not wish to change my password. I just do not want it automatically entered for me.

    Thanks guys...I did as you suggested and it worked! Thanks!
    However...just want you all to know...a computer illiterate like myself had trouble finding which function on the menu bar to click on to find the options and security settings to "unclick." Eventually...I found the correct window.
    Thanks again...your advice worked!

  • How to stop Flash from automatically playing videos?

    Some web pages have, either for advertisement or content, a box playing videos automatically. An example is Yahoo Finance playing Bloomberg videos. It costs bandwidth on some devices. I was not able to find any way to stop it. Some advices found elsewhere recommended checking ActiveX Filtering. In Yahoo case it doesn’t work. What else can be done to stop this behavior? Windows 8.1, IE11, FP 16.0.0.235.

    I revive this question. Maybe this time somebody will know the answer.
