I am a Flash developer. When I change a Flash file (SWF) and try to test it, Firefox displays the previous version even though I have cleared the cache. Clearing the cache obviously doesn't clear everything. Why?

I developed a Flash file (SWF) with a light blue start button, placed it on a web server then went to the URL using Firefox (3.6.8). Later I updated the SWF (changed the button to dark blue), replaced the SWF on the web server, opened Firefox and used Tools/Clear Recent History... to clear the cache. Then when I went to the URL to test the replaced SWF it clearly opened the previous version (light blue button). How can that happen if the previous version no longer exists on the web server? Firefox can only be opening the file from its cache, so why is the file still there if I just cleared the cache?

Your not alone!
I had the identical issue with iPhone config Utility on windows 7 64bit.
A virtual macOS on the same machine didn't have a problem, windows iTunes didnt have a problem. Just a glitch with ICU on windows
I tried everything you did and the only thing that fixed it was to change the appID or app name (I forget which I did).
I don't know where that old app data is stored on the machine, but I deleted all apps, uninstalled/reinstalled ICU and it still would populate and install the old ipa.
I also still periodically get weird errors/glitches deploying to iOS on windows.
It's like some days I need to deploy with ICU, sometimes iTunes, sometimes I need to run the VM mac... SOO frustrating.
It always works one way or another, so the app itself is always fine.
I guess I really need to look into that new direct deployment option...

  • When syncing won't allow some new and old songs.  Says they can't be played even though they have before.

    I just purchased new music from the iTunes store.  When I synced my iPod, it gave me a message saying some songs could not be played on my iPod.  Some of these were older songs that had been on my iPod previously, others were some of the new purchases.

    What is the error message iTunes is giving you when you try to sync these tracks?

  • Firefox 25.0 disabled kaspersky virtual keyboard and safe money ect how do i change back to the previous version as fire fox tells you to late in the update

    firefox 25.0 disabled kaspersky virtual keyboard and safe money ect how do i change back to the previous version as fire fox tells you to late in the update to back track

    Hello Bretus,
    Thank you for contacting Mozilla Support and I'm sorry this update isn't compatible with the extensions you're using.
    The Kaspersky support forums mention that those extensions will be updated soon, so that they are compatible with FF25. In the meantime, we do not recommend that you downgrade your version of Firefox, but you can find instructions and download locations for previous versions here:
    [[Install an older version of Firefox|Install an older version of Firefox]]
    Please let us know if this solves your issue.
    Cheers, Patrick

  • When I move to the next record on a form it shows the entries for the previous record even though the record is actually null

    I have a form that logs fibre analysis for asbestos analaysis. Let's say I am analysisng 2 samples. I log all the details for the first sample and hit save. Now I use the scroll button to move to the next sample. When the screen refreshes all the entries for the first sample are still showing on the screen. But these are just phantom entries, when I look at the back-end database there are of course no entries against the second sample. This does not occur with any other browser.
    I have tried clearing the cache to no avail.
    Any ideas?

    Is Firefox filling the form via the cache or via saved form data?
    If this data still gets filled when "Remember search and form history" is disabled the Firefox fills it from the cache.
    *Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history": "Remember search and form history"
    In such a case a hard refresh via Ctrl + F5 might help to reset the form data.

  • Mail Version 7.3 gives me this location is read-only error when I try to save messages to my hard drive even though I have full permissions to use the folders

    Mail is suddenly not allowing me to save Mail messages (nor attachments) to my hard drive.  Insists that the location is read-only, which it's not (I've checked and rechecked the folder permissions).  I'm the only person who uses my computer.  Anyone else having issues?  Mail has also been quitting off and on lately; never used to crash -- ever.
    System 10.9.3.

    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
    You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command may take a few minutes to run, or perhaps longer if you have literally millions of files in your home folder. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.

  • The last few days I have begun to get alerts that every page I go to is susceptible to the Heartbleed virus even though I have changed passwords, etc.

    Several weeks ago I added the Heartbleed Virus Monitor - o.2.1. I also changed a number of passwords.
    Understood that main sites like Yahoo, bank, Outlook, gmail, etc. had already taken steps to guard against the virus. Several days ago, I began to get notices from the Monitor in the lower right corner of my desk saying that each page I went on was susceptible to the virus. Do I need to do something else to be safe. Is the add-on not working correctly?
    Please help, if possible.

    Who is the issuer of the certificates?
    You can retrieve the certificate and check details like who issued certificates and expiration dates of certificates.
    *Click the link at the bottom of the error page: "I Understand the Risks"
    Let Firefox retrieve the certificate: "Add Exception" -> "Get Certificate".
    *Click the "View..." button and inspect the certificate and check who is the issuer of the certificate.
    You can see more Details like intermediate certificates that are used in the Details pane.
    If <b>"I Understand the Risks"</b> is missing then this page may be opened in an (i)frame and in that case try the right-click context menu and use "This Frame: Open Frame in New Tab".
    *Note that some firewalls monitor (secure) connections and that programs like Sendori or FiddlerRoot can intercept connections and send their own certificate instead of the website's certificate.
    *Note that it is not recommended to add a permanent exception in cases like this, so only use it to inspect the certificate.

  • I cannot run Firefox browser as main browser even though i have deleated everything from computer and re instaled the browser opens adds by favorite and does not open firefox browsing /google page

    I have stopped using firefox as default because of issues that started about 12 months ago . Instead of the usual fierfox browser opening it was hijacked by Talk talk uk page and also bombarded by adds by ( FAVORITE ) , I have errased everything from my computer regarding firefox / mozilla / thunderbird and also erased all bookmarks etc so as no trace could hinder the re installation but to no avail !
    So i am back on chrome and have no issues !

    Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs.<br />

  • When I change the default folder to save downloads in the options menu, it later reverts to the default folder even though I have made not changes in options. Any ideas? thanks!

    In the Options menu I changed the default download location (folder) to a folder I have on my desktop and saved the changes. But this option reverts to the default folder when I turn on my computer and open FF the next day.

    Thank you for your response.
    I do use CCleaner and just ran it. It did not change the download option folder that I had changed from the default so it appears that this is not cause.
    Any other suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks again!

  • Why is my iPhone 4S still in headphone mode even though i have my headphones out of the 3.5mm jack?(iOS 6.1)

    The reason why this is, is because you either have the "change sounds with buttons" setting ON or, you have installed either a faulty version of iOS 6.1 or a version which has an extremely massive bug in it. You can, however, get it out of headphone mode by following these steps;
    Step 1: Check if your "change with sounds with buttons" setting is off.
    Step 2: if step 1 is as said, go onto iTunes and go to "restore".(This WILL delete all of you devices data but if you have it backed up on iCloud or on iTunes so you dont need to panic.
    If all of those steps seem to not be the case, contact your nearest apple store or phone their hotline.
    I hope this helped some people in distress.

    Briansyddal - you might be able to manage your phone without a PC, but many of us can't, especially those of us with large iTunes libraries.  How do you propose I manage my 250GB of music using only a phone?  Maybe I could go out and buy 10 iPhones and spread my library out among them!
    Catz537 - I have the same problem as you and I've spent hours on the web trying to find a solution to it.  It was a problem with iOS 7 and  8.1.1 doesn't fix it.  The the only advice from Apple is completely useless because it requires you, effectively, to delete and recreate your iTunes library and lose all your metadata, album art, notes etc and there's also no guarantee it will work.   I wish I could be more help (even more - I wish Apple could be more help) - I updated to 8.1.1 at 1400 today.  At 2200 I'm still "waiting for changes to be applied" for a measly 16GB of music transfer. 

  • My family uses a single lap-top as our main internet connection and when we synch our respective I-pods, our I-tunes account seems to wipe-out our playlists, even though we have tried to create separate I-tune accounts.  Help!!

    My family uses a single lap-top as our home computer and several of us have i-pods that we like to synch, using I-tunes.  Although we've tried to create separate I-tune accounts, our i-tunes playlists are getting wiped out when one of us deletes songs on our I-pod and it seems as though I-tunes is not distinguishing our distinct accounts and all i-pods are being synched to reflect the latest i-pod anyone makes on their respective account.  It appears as though our distinct I-tune accounts are not being loaded on our lap-top when we sign in and unfortunately, when we're in I-tunes, there is nothing to indicate what account is on the screen.  For all the glowing appraisals apple-related products usually receive, we are finding i-tunes and its interface with our respective i-pods to be a very, very frustrating experience. 
    Can anyone shed some light on this for a family of non-techies?  Thx

    You need to create separate Windows user accounts if you want to seperate the behaviour of iTunes for each user. That also means separate iTunes libraries for each user.
    Windows is a multi-user operating system but you are not using it properly. iTunes is not a multi-user application. No application is. You can't expect it to treat different users differently when they are all using the same computer user account.
    Do you understand what I mean?
