I constantly have to re-log-in on websites (like Gmail, yahoo, etc) during the same session. I get logged out within 15-20 minutes, or using different tabs.
In settings, I allow cookies for these sites, and I don't have this problem with Chrome or IE (hate IE!).
If I open another tab and am there for a minute, then go back to my email (gmail), then I have to re-log-in. This happens to other sites that I have to log into, too (shopping sites, yahoo, etc). Sometimes it does it while I am in the middle of typing an email. FRUSTRATING!!!
Help??
Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
To clear cache and cookies do the following:
#Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
#Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
#Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
#From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
#Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.

'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''

I am having trouble moving files from iphoto to a thumb drive. During the same session sometime I can move 10 photos at a time, the next time I can only move one photo and sometime no photos will move. I also have trouble downloading photos to the internet. I was using a MacBook Pro and had no problems like this. I then upgraded to the MacBook Pro with Retina Vision and this is the computer I am having problems with. Can anyone please give me a suggestion in how to fix this problem. THANK YOU.
iPhoto problems should be posted in their forums.
I also have trouble downloading photos to the internet.
Needs clarification. You upload from your computer to the internet & download from a website/internet to your computer. So which are you trying to do? Either way, sounds like a browser issue. You need to post in the forum of whichever browser you are using. -
Before I got my new IPhone, when I purchased from ITunes store, I only had to enter my passcode once as long as I was not idle for more than 5 minutes. Now, when I try to purchase songs, each one I select requires me to re-enter my passcode. Very annoying. How do I reset this to my original setting of only having to enter it once?
Thanks for the help.
CandyGirl56What do you currently have Settings > General > Restrictions > Require Password set to ? It has two options : 'Immediately' (so your password would need to be entered for every download), and '15 minutes' (you wouldn't need to re-enter your password for 15 minutes after entering it)

I loved the previous version and this version for me is a downgrade. I am not able to correctly set the option, and I cannot even get the feedback function to operate correctly.
There is a difference between remembering the name and password in the Password Manager and a "remember me" check box on a web page.
The latter usually involves the creation of a special "remember me" cookie that is stored on your computer and that is send to the server.
If that "remember me" cookie is removed or gets corrupted or is not send to the server then the server won't remember you and you need to sign in once again.
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Cookies
Websites remembering you and automatically log you in is stored in a cookie.
* Create an allow cookie exception (Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: Exceptions) to keep such a cookie, especially for secure websites and if cookies expire when Firefox is closed.
Make sure that you do not run Firefox in Private Browsing mode.

Pretty much this: I have firefox set to delete personal information (log in to websites) when I close it ... However firefox instead doesn't delete anything, keeps the cookies, and when I reopen firefox I'm still logged in (to websites like facebook). What do?
Privacy settings aren't working even though they're all appropriately checked off.
I think Firefox is saving cookies??Let all cookies expire when you close Firefox.
* Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Keep until": "I close Firefox"
Make an Allow exception for the ones that you want to keep.
* Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Exceptions"
You can inspect and modify the permissions for the domain in the current tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
Make sure that you do not use "Clear Recent History" to clear the "Cookies" and the "Site Preferences" (Site Preferences includes the cookie exceptions)
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Clear+Recent+History
Clearing cookies will remove all specified (selected) cookies including cookies that have an allow exception.

I have synced my iPhone numerous times and some of the memos in "Voice Memos" on my iPhone wont go over to my iTunes program on my computer. I have a folder titled "Voice Memos" on my iPhone and one of the same name on iTunes on my computer. But after I sync I only get 6 out of the 9 voice memos on my iPhone.
How do I get the rest (or all) of the memos from my iPhone copied to my computer?

[email protected]"I have logged in to my itunes account on a different computer and none of my purchased music is showing up."
Correct. it does not magially appear in other places. It will only be where you put it.
"I also have plugged my iphone in to get updates but it says I will lose all media and apps if I don't update on the computer where I sync everything. "
Correct as well. Iphone will sync with one computer at a time. Syncing to another will erase the current content.
You need to copy everything ( itunes library/contacts/pics/calendars/files/docs) from the old computer, or your backup copy of the old one, to the new one. -
I have three separate email accounts showing up in my Mail program on my MacBook Pro. Two of them are my local email provider one showing up as SaskTel Email and the other showing up as sasktel.net. The third one is ICloud. Can I delete one of the SaskTel ones, as they seem to get the same mail.
What do you tell your friends to use to send you email?
Are they going to the same "Incoming Mail Server", logging in with the same "User Name" ? If so, they are two instances of the same account, and one can certainly be deleted with impunity.
This detailed information is in
Mail > Preferences > Accounts > ...
... click on the accountname and inspect those fields. -
IPhone question: Im trying to update applications on my iphone. When I do it I'm as for password from a different Apple ID from what I have in Itunes. How do I change so that both are the same?
All apps are tied to the apple id that it was used to purchase or download the app.
did you use a different id to buy the app?
you can change id, settings - appstore - apple id - log out and log in with correct id. -
I updated to the latest version of Safari now I cannot log into certain websites like my online banking. Another reason I loved using this computer was autofill, now that does not work the same either, I have to respond twice to get my info to fill in. I fill out many forms in a day and this change has been so bad that I have downloaded Mozilla Firefox to use instead. I hope apple fixes these issues but until then how do I revert back to an older version of Safari?
Quit Safari.
Open Keychain Access /Applications/Utilities
Select Passwords on the left. Delete any keychains for sites you have problems logging into.
Relaunch Safari. Go to Safari / Preferences - Autofill. Make sure all three boxes are selected.
Now navigate to a site, login with your user name and password. You should be prompted to save that data to a new keychain. Click Yes.
If you still have problems, go to ~/Library/Cookies. Move the Cookies.plist file to the Trash.
~ (Tilde) represents your Home folder.
Try logging into a site again. -
I have a 4 month long text message thread conversation. What's the quickest way to get to the very beginning of the conversation?
The startup.exe file is locate in the \NI-RT\STARTUP directory. 'cd NI-RT' then 'cd STARTUP' should get you to the right place after making the connection with ftp. I don't recognize PH_EXEC.EXE. Logging in as anonymous is fine. I don't recall seeing documentation on the file structure and locations on the module but I'm sure there is some. I just wandered around w/ftp.
The program to update the node should be below. Enter the IP address, the green light will confirm the node is found.
The version function scans the existing startup.exe for a string beginning and ending with " RU Version " and prints everything in between as the version.
The autostart function will copy the existing ni-rt.ini file to your computer, mod
ify the autostart as requested, then put the file back. Leaves the copy on the PC, which can be handy.
Send file will request a file of the format startup*.dat which will be renamed startup.exe and ftp'd to the module. Lets you keep version numbers in the filename on the PC side. Your directory structure probably won't match mine so you'll have to browse for your file.
Reboot module reboots the module.
Hope this is useful, let me know if anything doesn't make sense. Thanks.
Matt

I have tried 10 times to install creative cloud and it quits in the same place (50%) through each time.
Nobody can tell you anything without proper system info or other technical details like the install log. If it always stops at the same spot, something specific happens like waiting for a specific user input, running out of disk space or simply triggering some external process like a virus scanner that may block the install, but never properly produces a warning dialog.

Although I can access iCloud, my system preferences on my iMac still show Mobile.me. I have to sign in with my mobile.me ID which is not the same as my Apple ID. I want to change my iCloud ID and password to be consistent with my Apple ID and password. How do I do it?
you need to be running OSX 10.7 or 10.8 to use iCloud i believe. It shows you are using 10.6.8 which doesn't support iCloud.

How can you set up more than one device on iTunes? I have an iPad, iPod, itouch and iPhone. I don't want the same on all devices. I have all my music/videos on iTunes on my mac book pro. Can you set up separate folders for each device and drop in what ever music/videos from the main iTunes library?
In itunes it is called syncing and you can choose exactly what content to sync to all devices and it can be different for all of them
