KDM doesn't save previous user

Hello!
Since the upgrade to KDE 4.5 KDM doesn't show the previous logged in user at the login screen. Because of that, every time I have to type my username in the user field.
I checked in KDE "System Settings" the configuration of KDM. The option "previous user" is set, but it doesn't work anyway.
Has anybody the same problem?
Thanks for help!
Best regards,
Flasher

I think there already was a topic on this.
Edit : Found this, but it seems nobody investigated it further.

How do I save my user name a password for a site that doesn't automatically ask me if I wish to?

Normally Firefox will ask if I wish to save the user name and password for the site I've just logged into. This time it did not ask me this. Is there somewhere that I can add this information so I don't have to remember it for when I come back in a year from now and am trying to log on again? I went to tools>internet options>security>passwords but nothing there seemed relevant.

Some sites block passwords from being saved. For more details and how to bypass this see http://kb.mozillazine.org/User_name_and_password_not_remembered

Photo Downloader doesn't retain previous settings (again)

Please see previous post because this issue involves Photo Downloader and ACR.
I'm using 10.6.8, CS5.1 and Bridge 4.1.0.54
I have just reloaded Camera Raw 6.4.1 due to the bug in ACR 6.5 that prevents selecting a destination folder in Photo Downloader and causing Bridge to freeze.
6.4.1 solves the freeze problem, but now it's back to the problem that none of the settings in Advanced Dialog are retained, nor does Photo Downloader default to Advanced Dialog anymore. I've added the CS5 folder as before (User/Library/Application Support/Adobe) alongside the existing CS5.1 folder, but it hasn't solved the problem. Is there a new solution to this yet?
6.4.1 works fine on my MBP using the above workaround (CS5 folder added). Because I now have a dozen new student iMacs to set up, my three-part second question is: has ACR 6.6 been tested for these two bugs; should I wait before setting up the iMacs; how long before ACR 6.6 is officially released?

Thanks Omke. I¹ll try that next time I¹m in the lab. However, on my
MacBook Pro I checked the CS5.1 folder, and there is no ³APDPreferences.xml²
in that location (it is there in CS5 folder but I couldn¹t open it). On the
iMacs, I¹m only running CS5.1. Is there a different location for it in
CS5.1?
I¹m wondering if I¹m the only one running Mac OS 10.6.8, Bridge 4.1.0.54 and
ACR 6.5 who¹s having this problem?

It¹s baffling,
That is to put it mildly you mean, can't imagine that is the only word that
came to your mind... Have you tried to repair permissions for OSX
again? I don't have the 5.5 installed so can't compare but if one system
does work, another not and you have compared both files and folders
existence in the two systems it does seem to be OS related to me? There is
also a file called "APDPreferences.xml" (user/library/Application Support/
Adobe/Bridge CS5) Can you open the files on both systems and compare the
content, it contains the settings made in advanced dialog.

When I go to update my software using the app store download, it always asks for the previous user's ID, not mine. Please help!

When I go to update my software using the app store download, it always asks for the previous user's ID, not mine (my IT guy at school's-I am a faculty with admin priviledges). I have signed in as me, have set the main preferences login user as me,and everywhere on the laptop I can use my apple ID except here. It always shows me a greyed out ID of my IT. How can I reset this to my ID? It doesn't give me an option to change the user ID, only a link to reset password. I reset it, but it did not change the problem. Can someone help me?

It's not an ID problem, it's an ownership problem.
When someone uses their personal Apple ID to buy and download content, the content is licensed to them and has their Apple ID engrained in it's DNA. It is an anti-piracy program. And when that personal Apple ID is used to setup a new Mac, it involves the Mac itself, the shipping OS and any pre-installed apps as well.
It's not the correct way to handle Macs that belong to a business or an institution. And had it been handled correctly they would not now be in this predictument needing a drastic remedy.

Unfortunately, this is a problem with old version of PS and PSE. They can't see drives that large.

Firefox doesn't save the settings

As the question might say this version of Firefox (5.0.1) doesn't save the settings u do to it...For example my problem is with the toolbar and the buttons i add to it...i have tried to customize it as i previously had it in the earlier versions of firefox but it doesn't save them...i need to customize them from the beginning whenever i close and open firefox...even when it updates the add-on's and restarts it still needs to be customized...i have also checked many forums and apparently i am not the one having the same problem...some also can't save the bookmarks but that is not my case...i have recently downloaded a Premuimplay Codec-c add on and also a Facemoods and maybe ththose interfere with firefox even though i doubt it
The addon's that i definitely wanna keep on the toolbar are IMTranslator,WOT,Read It Later,Save-To-Read,ADBlock Plus and also the Home button never stays in the place i move him when i customize the toolbar
Regards
Albi
PS:(some add-ons don't work with firefox 5.0.1 but i guess thats the developers problems right?

Firefox 4 saves the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session.<br />
You can use "Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session.<br />
There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default <b>about:home</b> Home page.
Another possibility is to use:

Openoffice 3.2 calc doesn't save row height in xls

Hi All,
I have upgraded to ooo 3.2 recently. I work with excels spreadsheets so I have to save files into xls. Suddenly I realized that Calc doesn't save custom row height, when I open the file all rows are displayed with default height. It worked in the previous version, pacman log: upgraded go-openoffice (3.1.1.5-1 -> 3.2.0.4-1)
I searched ooo forums, but didn't find anything.
update:
in case someone is interested, I have found a kind of work-around. Select sheet, Format / Rows / Optimal height -> increase value at least one step, in my case from 0.0 mm to 0.1 mm, then save. Reopen xls, rows will be displayed with the custom heights. Unfortunately one has to apply this workaround on every singe sheet in the workbook. :-/ No way I would do this with all my workbooks.

Workaround with downgrade: If someone successfully downgraded to 3.1.1 it wont start because depends on libjpeg.so.7.
1. Create a script somewhere in your PATH and make it executable:
#!/bin/bash
LD_PRELOAD=/var/tmp/libjpeg.so.7.0.0 soffice -calc "$1"
2. copy libjpeg.so.7.0.0 to the directory mentioned in the script (in this case /var/tmp)
3. in your file manager e.g. nautilus right click on the xls, choose properties / Open with / custom command, and use the script's name.

I want to save 2 users game data now, use Properties?

hi, i just realized that by using "Properties" to save a users game data like the following
experience=2000;
level=3;
zone=forest;
it will write to the text file, but i just realized, when another user goes to play my game, how do i save his game in another spot, can i still use Properties? otherwise, the new user will get the previous user's saved data. and just when i was all happy about saving ONE users data. HAHAHA. :-D

Nobody's pissed off at you, well, certainly I'm not, and I can't see that anyone else is either. But you just seem to be relying on the forum to write the bits you can't, rather than put in a bit of effort to do it yourself. That's not very satisfying. You were going to use a database for this, and thank god I talked you into using Properties instead, because some poor guy would now be writing reams of JDBC code and SQL for you, and telling you how to install and configure MySQL and Connector/J. I prefer teaching people to fish rather than giving them dinner, it's a bit disheartening when people don't go for that approach. But nobody's pissed off at you. In all seriousness, I think you've been working away at this all weekend without much of a break and it's getting to you. Do yourself a favour and take the night off. It'll all seem so much easier when you've been away from it for a bit

Safari 5 doesn't saves webpage preview images

Safari doesn't saves webpage preview images. It only save images for my Top Sites pages.
When I look in my history cover flow I only see blank Safari symbols (except history from my Top Sites webpages)
Well I really want to see full cover flow.
How can I fix this?
By the way, the Reader feature really cool and very useful.

By the way, I finally gets history to be saved. It fixed by Safari 5.
Yes, I saw your post on that one ... at least some incremental progress is being made ...
There's an area of Discussions (available only to the level 4 or 5 users) where we can post information about trouble we see out in the "public" forums ("Notable New Technical Issues"). I've been updating a thread on this issue with your progress so far with this. (I'm not sure if the Safari developers watch that though ... but just in case, I've been stashing info about this there.)
In the meantime, it's probably worth submitting a bug report via the "Help > Report Bugs to Apple" or the Apple Bug Reporter thing (if you've registered as an Apple Developer).

Not Enough Hard Drive Space on my Mac Mini to Save Deleted User Account Folder: What to do?

I am no longer able to access my original user account on my mac mini because the account is corrupted and won't load. Thanks to the helpful advice I found on the internet, I was able to create a new user account and resume using my mac, but all of my old files are trapped in the old user account.
The plan was to delete the old user account, create a disk image of the old account folders, and then migrate those folders to the new user account. Unfortunately, I don't have enough disc space left on my Mac to do that. I have just under 11gb left after deleting absolutely everything I could, and I need 81gb for the old user files. The back up plan was to select the "don't change the home folder" option, but when I went to delete the account, there was no such option. The message simply read:
"The user's home folder will not be saved. To do so, you need 81.1gb of free disk space. Try emptying the trash or deleting other files on your disk, then deleting the user account. If you do not want to save the user's home folder, click delete immediately."
My only two choices were CANCEL or DELETE IMMEDIATELY. There was no "don't change the home folder" option.
So I am not sure how to proceed. Here are some questions:
1) is there a way to save the disk image directly to an external drive instead of the user's folder on the mac hard drive?
2) If I use the "delete immediately" option, will the files go into a "deleted users" folder where they can be recovered or will they just be erased from the computer and unretrievable?
3) Is there a way to use terminal to change access permission on the original user account files so that I can copy them onto an external drive or integrate them with the new user account without having to first delete the original user account?
4) In the absence of deleting the user account, will using either:
sudo chown -R `id -un` /Users/oldusername
and/or
sudo chmod -R u+rw /Users/oldusername
in Terminal allow the new user account permission to access the original user files and merge them seamlessly into my new user account? Or must I delete the original account first?
5) Is there something else I haven't thought of that would work, would be more efficient, or more effective? This wouldn't be the first time I have overthought a solution...
When considering any solutions, please keep in mind that I cannot launch the original user account as that starts the whole endless loading loop. So, while I have the password for the original user account, any solution would appear to require that I work from the new user account only, without launching the old account. Also I am a complete newbie at this. I've used Macs exclusively for 17 years but this is the first time I've had to do anything like this. Up to now, everything has always "just worked". So please be as detailed with any instructions as possible!
Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I think ComputerFixer is correct, you should be able to drag and drop it to another drive, no worries. However, if not, you could create an disk image of it using DiskUtility and create it on a new drive. But again, I don't think that is necessary. If you have administrator rights with your new account, can you simply go into the old user account folder and drag and drop the files you want to save? I have done that as well as copy the older user account to another drive (in my case, another computer on the network) and salgage my files from there. Is that an option for you?

Closing the browser in InfoView doesn't log the user off.

In Business Objects XI R2 Infoview, closing the browser in InfoView doesn't log the user off no matter how you answer the subsequent popup question "A window has closed. Log off as well?" Is there a fix for this somewhere?

hi,
In InfoView, with Performance Management installed, user sessions fail to be released immediately when the Log Off button is clicked.
If you click the logoff button in Infoview and watch the address bar you will notice that it actually goes to another page called default.htm. It does this really fast. That page is located at C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Tomcat\webapps\businessobjects\enterprise115\desktoplaunch\InfoView. Remove both the default.htm and index.html and reboot your Tomcat server. Open a browser and go to Infoview. Once you have gotten in to Infoview click the log off button. You will get and error from the tomcat server and that is because the page does not exist anymore. If you look in CMS under servers and CMS you will also notice it dropped the session as well. So if you create another Default.htm page of your own and just redirect to another page it all should work.
