Is there any way to set Firefox to remember history for a certain amount of time rather than all or nothing?

In previous versions, there was a choice to remember browsing history for a certain number of days, but in the current version the only choices seem to be to remember history or not remember history, with no way to customize in between. I don't want to have to clear my history and cache manually all the time, but I don't want it cleared every time I close my browser, either. Has the customization feature been removed entirely or am I missing something? And if it's been removed entirely, could it please be brought back? It's helpful for people who want their older browsing history to be deleted without deleting the entire history.

  • My wife and I share an iTunes account. Is there any way to set up a seperate one for her to sync her phone contacts, iCloud and music to without having to purchase all her music again and then share going forward?

    My wife and I share an iTunes account. Is there any way to set up a seperate one for her to sync her phone contacts, iCloud and music to without having to purchase all her music again and then share going forward?
    It would be so much easier having seperate accounts but we have hundreds of her purchased songs on my account and she would need to be able to access these from her account. Possible?
    Also, if we bought a song in future we would want to be able to both have access to it.
    Alternatively, what is the easy way to sync two distinctly different contact lists to one iTunes account?
    Thank you in advance.

    FYI: iTunes account (used to make purchases) is not the same as iTunes library (iTunes on your computer with music, movies, etc.).

    You can but you will not be able to limit what she syncs.
    I would like to avoid 'checking' and 'unchecking' individual songs every time one of us tries to synch our ipods to the library.
    I don't recommend using (only) the checkmarks to select what to sync.
    Each of you can create your own playlists then sync only those playlists.
    Then add/delete from your own playlists to change iPod content.
    The only time I uncheck items is if I rarely/never want to sync them to anything, such as Christmas music or old audiobooks.
    I suggest you each have your own computer login account. Then everyone has their own contacts, calendars, and everything else.
    You and your husband can share an iTunes library and let your daughter have her own.

    You can add property  'request.mandatorylanguage=<your_language>'
    and property  'request.mandatorycountry'
    on file 'prtDefault.properties' located in :
    ..server0\apps\sap.com\irj\servlet_jsp\irj\root\WEB-INF\portal\system\properties\prtDefault.properties

  • Is there any way to force Firefox to remember passwords?

    As many have complained about, there is a growing trend for websites to prevent browsers, including Firefox, from remembering passwords. This is absolutely infuriating. Like most people, I have on the order of 100 passwords, and thanks to idiotic, overzealous IT guys who need to justify their own jobs, we are forced to constantly change them to ludicrous, impossible-to-remember combinations of symbols and numbers. (Does anybody really get their accounts stolen because some hacker sits down and tries to guess their password? Somehow I find that very, very hard to believe.)
    First world problems, I know. My question though is simple: is there any way to force Firefox to remember passwords? Perhaps an add-on or external program of some kind? I know there are password manager programs, but the last time I checked, those were all but worthless and didn't work as well as the built-in Firefox support for remembering passwords. Thanks for any help.

    hello andrew, yes you can either [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/remember-passwords/ install an addon] or [https://www.squarefree.com/bookmarklets/forms.html#remember_password use a bookmarklet] to circumvent this restriction.
    in an upcoming version of firefox, this functionality will also be built-in directly into the browser: http://www.ghacks.net/2013/12/24/firefox-29-save-fill-autocompleteoff-passwords/

  • Using the Motorola Atrix w/ the laptop dock, when I open a web page with Firefox I have to hit "Ctl +" three times to make the page fill the screen. Is there any way to set up so pages open the right size?

    I'm using the Motorola Atrix smart phone with the Laptop Dock. When I open a web page with Firefox I have to hit "Ctl +" three times to make the page fill the screen. Is there any way to set up the Firefox browser to open the web pages the right size in the first place?

    The Firefox Page Zoom feature does a domain by domain level of saving the users preferred zoom level settings, there is no default Page Zoom level setting in Firefox.

  • Federal court website gives a .pl document which opens as garbage until we manually change it to .pdf, is there any way to get Firefox to do this automatically?

    I am using a Mac. When downloading a document from the federal court website using Firefox, we get a .pl document which opens as garbage (in TextEdit) until we manually change it to .pdf, which causes it to open just fine (in Preview). It used to work fine, giving a .pdf document every time, but apparently upgrades to Firefox have removed this functionality. As far as I can tell my computer, an iMac running Mac system OS X 10.10.1, does not recognize the .pl format. Is there any way to get Firefox to automatically convert a downloaded file from .pl format to .pdf format? My friend tells me that Google Chrome downloads these documents with no problem. I would prefer to stick with Firefox but I might have to change if every downloaded document is in an unreadable format.
    This is a typical example of what I get when I try to open a .pl document (the pdf version is a one page document using plain English):
    =====
    %PDF-1.5

  • Is there any way to not use the plugin container for firefox?

    Is there any way to not use the plugin container for firefox? Ever since I updated, my firefox browser has been crashing almost every day and it always says that the plugin container crashed, but the rest of firefox freezes up as well, so I am forced to end the process itself.

    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Plugin-container_and_out-of-process_plugins
    You can set the prefs dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.* to false on the about:config page to disable the plugin-container process.
    dom.ipc.plugins.enabled (currently false by default in Firefox 3.6.6)
    dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.npswf32.dll (Flash)
    dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.npctrl.dll (Silverlight)
    dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.npqtplugin.dll (QuickTime)

  • Is there any way to set default column widths in the Finder's Column view

    When my Finder windows open in column view, all the columns are always VERY wide. I have to then spend time resizing them to a managable width. Is there any way to set default column widths in the Finder's Column view?

    No, because you can't set a columns view default.

  • Is there a way to set firefox so it only allows access to only one website / (ip address).

    Is there a way to set firefox so it only allows access to only one website / (ip address) and block traffic from everything else (the entire web) other than the one site I want to allow? The site I want to allow is a corporate web application that will only work in firefox. We as a business run a windows server and all client desktops run Internet Explorer with security setting controlled by group policy. We have already locked down the security setting in firefox so users can’t bypass the proxy server settings.

    I have a proxy server set up (Symantec.cloud). Fire fox is “locked” so users would find it difficult to bypass it.
    I have a file: '''local-settings.js '''
    This is located in: C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\pref
    The content of this file is:
    ''pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0); // only needed if you do not want to obscure the content with ROT-13
    pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");''
    I also have the file: called: '''mozilla.cfg'''
    This is located: C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    The contents of this file is:
    lockPref("network.proxy.type", 5);
    All that is working fine, users can’t easily change the connection settings.
    So all that is good and works…
    What I would also like to do is set firefox so access is limited to 1 IP address and nothing else is allowed (the whole internet is blocked, except this one IP address).
    You suggest using a PAC file - I was unsure how I would use a PAC file, (I have never written one) and do not understand how I would implement one? Please help.

  • I just got my daughter a new macbook pro. She currently shares my wires apple id for iTunes on her iTouch. I need to set up an email account for her. Is there any way to set up a new iCloud email account but still use my wires apple id for iTunes?

    I just got my daughter a new macbook pro. She currently shares my wifes apple id for iTunes on her iTouch. I need to set up an email account for her. Is there any way to set up a new iCloud email account but still use my wifes apple id for iTunes?

    No it's not stealing. They have an allowance that you can share with so many computers/devices. You'll have to authorize her computer to play/use anything bought on your acct. You can do this under the Store menu at top when iTunes is open on her computer.
    As far as getting it all on her computer....I think but I am not sure (because I don't use the feature) but I think if you turn on Home Sharing in iTunes it may copy the music to her computer. I don't know maybe it just streams it. If nothing else you can sign into your acct on her computer and download it all to her computer from the cloud. Not sure exactly how to go about that, I haven't had to do that yet. I wonder if once you authorize her computer and then set it up for automatic downloads (under Edit>Preferences>Store) if everything would download. Sorry I'm not much help on that.

  • Is there any way to set a password so that txt messages only open when the password is entered

    Is there any way to set a password so that txt messages only open when the password is entered?

    Hello Damien,
    There is an option to set a passcode for the entire iPhone.  You can use the following steps to set this up:
    You can configure a passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using Settings > General > Passcode Lock.
    Once enabled, you will be prompted for the passcode whenever you:
    Turn on or restart the device
    Wake the device
    Unlock the screen
    Note: You can specify the amount of time the screen must be locked before requiring a passcode.
    You can find the full article here:

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • Is there any way to set up icloud with Windows XP?

    Is there any way to set up icloud using a PC with windows XP?

    Yes there is.
    There are many threads on this forum discussing this issue already (it's good to search before asking the same quesiton again).
    There is a simple hack to get iCloud control panel to work on Windows XP to give you synced access to Contacts, Calenders, Reminders and Bookmarks. It also can be used to set up your me.com mail. Photostream doesn't work.
    I found a solution here, have written it up in clearer english and added details re IMAP support for me.com addresses here:
    http://xlii.be/s/1ii
    In summary:
    You need:
    Unpacking program e.g. 7-Zip or WinRar
    Orca MSI editor
    The iCloud setup hack for Windows XP:
    Download iCloud Control Panel for Windows.
    Open iCloudSetup.exe file with WinRar or 7-Zip and extract.
    Navigate to and open the iCloud.msi or iCloud64.msi (for 64bit systems) with Orca.
    In the left table select LaunchCondition. Then change in the right table “VersionNT> = 600” to “VersionNT> = 200” and Save.
    Run modified iCloud.msi and install.
    Run iCloud Control Panel, located in the Windows Control Panel, and set up as you want.
    I've had reports that you need to keep the files extracted from the .exe file in the same directory during installaton of the .msi file.
    Have fun!

    That is what Activation Lock of iOS 7 does
    In addition, it renders the iPhone totally useless to anyone who doesn't know your Apple ID and password.

  • Hi guys. Just a quick question. My wife has a Mac Book Pro and when she is browsing the web she can use a two fingered gesture to go back to her previous page (by swiping from right to left). Is there any way to set that up on my iPad Mini. Many thanks.

    Not in the Safari browser she can't. That is not supported on the iPad. There are other mobile browsers that do have that functionality - one is iCab Mobile.

  • Is there any way to set a timer for particular playlist?

    i would like to listen to a sleep playslist everynight without getting up to turn it on. is there any way to set it in advance?

    this is not the problem. i know how to open iTunes when it starts up and to schedule the computer to shut down. what i want to is at 8 pm close all applications except iTunes, put the display to sleep and at 9 pm start playing a sleep playlist. i have been told many times not to look at the computer an hour before bed and i so i want to avoid having to look at it to start my go to sleep playlist.
    i have looked at a number of programs but i don’t see one that does this yet.
