Lately while doing a 'save image as', it tries to 2nd guess me. I HATE that! Any way to turn this feature off?

Doing the 'save image as' option, it will go back to the previous folder and keep going there for about 5 times before it save the image to the folder I want. Then when I change folders again, it will go back to the previous folder for about 5 more times. Is there any way to turn this feature off? I do not like it at all.

Current Firefox versions remember the download directory based upon the URL, so if the URL changes then the default folder may be chosen if there hasn't been selected a download folder before for that server.

Firefox 11 will have a workaround by providing a pref ( browser.download.lastDir.savePerSite) to disable this feature.

  • Just switched from safari on my imac. when using search menu safari gave me the option to "find on this page," which was an incredible help while doing research. Is there any way to have this feature using firefox?

    Just switched from safari on my imac. When using search menu in safari I had the option to "find on this page," which was an incredible help while doing research and looking for specific phrases/words. Is there any way to have this feature using firefox?

    I think Safari has the same keyboard shortcut as Firefox "command+F" on a Mac or "Ctrl+F" on Windows.
    Look in the lower left corner for the Find. There are more likely to be differences in Find Next and Find Previous in the keyboard shortcuts, but continuing at the Find bar at the bottom doesn't matter what browser you use. There is an "X" there to dismiss the Find bar. In Windows the "Esc" key will dismiss the bar if you are within the find text entry area.
    Keyboard shortcuts:
    * [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Keyboard%20shortcuts?s=keyboard&r=0&as=s Keyboard shortcuts | How to | Firefox Help], from Mozilla very limited number of shortcuts but will show correctly for your system
    * [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/keyboard.htm Firefox and other Browser Keyboard Shortcuts (Comparison Table)], more comprehensive but is oriented to Windows users with some guidelines for Mac and Linux users.

  • After upgrading to Firefox 3.6.11, the browser does not see my previous browsing history, and does not save new history. places.sqlite is still in place. Is there a way to fix this without erasing previous history?

    Bookmarks are still being updated and saved. Recently closed tabs, Recently closed windows are being recorded as they should. I have a single .json file on my profile directory, search.json. I don't know if there should be another one for the browsing history. It looks like some index file for the history database was lost or corrupted, or re-created as an empty file. places.sqlite-journal has zero bytes; places.sqlite-stmtjrnl has 37 kbytes, date 2008-07-15.

    I kept trying to solve this problem, and after a few unsuccessful attempts, the only thing which worked was uninstalling Firefox (keeping all my customizations) and then reinstalling Firefox 3.6.10 (which is apparently no longer available at mozilla.org, but which I could easily find at filehippo.com). The unsuccessful attempts I made were: (1) Install Firefox 4 beta; (2) uninstall Firefox 4 beta, Firefox 3.6.11 (in both uninstalls, keeping my customizations), and reinstall Firefox 3.6.11.
    So right now I am stuck at Firefox 3.6.10, or I will loose access to my browsing history. If anyone at Mozilla.org is reading this, I would suggest taking a look at this issue to see if it can be reproduced and fixed. I am running Windows XP (fully updated), Brazilian Portuguese version.

  • Why does my computer display the message, calendar, and other icons while I am viewing them on my phone? I want to turn this "feature" off.

    I want to disable the feature than links my computer and phone's activity that has recently been added in the new OS.

    Go to Settings, General, Handoff and Apps. Turn off Handoff.
    I Can't remember where it is in OS X.

  • When I open Numbers it displays every spreadsheet I've ever worked on. I have 100 windows displaying spreadsheets. What am I doing wrong? How to I turn this feature off?

    When I open Numbers it displays every spreadsheet I have evr worked on! The screen fills with 100 windows showing different spreadsheets. How do I turn this feature off?

    As Jerry said, if you close all documents before quitting Numbers or Pages, you won't have them reopening when you launch the app again. If you don't want to have to close everything first try Lion Tweaks or the latest version of TinkerTool. Both have the option to turn off the resume feature for individual applications.

  • The front facing camera of the iPhone 5 automatically flips/mirrors the image right after it is taken. This is annoying since I would like for the image to look the same way it did while it was captured is there a way to stop this feature?

    Right after I take a picture using the camera which is made to face you the image is flipped as soon as it saves to my library. Is there a fix for this? Ive read a few other posts saying apple intended for the software to do this but I was wondering if there was an option to turn this feature off.

    I actually tried the steps below due to the error -5000 I had encountered during the previous tries updating my IOS to 5.1.1
    "Perform a normal sync and check your iTunes to make sure everything was synced in the right places like the tabs at the top of your "summary" when you plug in your iPhone to iTunes.  If everything is there and all the right boxes are checked for the stuff you want to save, then put your phone into recovery mode by keeping it plugged into your computer with iTunes still up and running. Next you want hold down the power button AND the home key button (the big button on the bottom part of your screen) AT THE SAME TIME. Your phone will go thru 4 different screens before you
    Can let them go.  U will see your normal power off slider screen, then a black screen, then a black screen with an apple logo, then finally a screen with the iTunes logo and a picture of a sync cable below it. Once you see this screen LET BOTH BUTTONS GO but not before you see this screen.  Your computer will tell you that it has detected an iPhone in recovery mode, say ok.  Then hit the restore button on your iTunes summary screen, it should then ask you if you want to restore from a backup and update, say yes.... And at the end of its restoring and uploading you should have iOS 5!!"
    Then it proceeded to a reactivation process... =(

    IF it is a manufacturing defect and you bought the device from Apple or an authorized Apple retailer, then take it into Apple.

  • The latest version of Pages does not allow a Pages document to become a 'stationery pad'!  Is there a way to do this this other than through the 'Get Info' window?

    The latest version of Mavericks does not allow a Pages document to become a 'stationery pad'!  Is there a way to do this this other than through the 'Get Info' window?  As Pages templates cannot be ordered in folders, my many templates are effectively unusable now and I need to find another way to order and access them.

    Are you aware of that you can still use Pages 09 on Mavericks? You don't have to go thru the grieves of using the crippled Pages 5. Pages 09 should bi in Applications/iWork 09 folder.

    My Photos app works the same on iOS 5 as it did on iOS 4 i.e. I can have a different track for each album. When I select a track for a photo album I then start the slideshow so that it shows the first couple of photos with the track playing - I'm not sure it's necessary to start the slideshow but I always do and it remembers that track for that album.

    WE know Disk Warrior is more reliable, hence more useful, and should be in any disk mechanics toolchest.
    For the record, I don't know anything of the kind. I have yet to see evidence that Disk Warrior is useful at all.
    What I do know is that you seem to take every opportunity you get to promote it in these forums. Do you work for Alsoft?
    Let me be a little more explicit. My opinion is that Disk Warrior is a waste of money if one has backups. If a journaled HFS directory is so badly corrupted that it can't be repaired by Disk Utility, then the volume should be reformatted and restored from backup, which has the same effect as running DW, but is probably faster and doesn't cost $99.

  • Undo/redo generate 'Save Changes to filename' pop up after 3 or 4 clicks.  Is there a way to turn this off?

    Running into issue with undo/redo(ctrl-z,ctrl-y) generating 'Save Changes to filename' pop up after 3 or 4 clicks.  Is there a way to turn this off?

    Sounds like some strange shortcut key conflict.
    The first thing to try is Deleting Corrupted Cache in DW.  Be sure hidden files & folders are enabled in Windows Explorer.

    I don't know how to turn off a kitten (I would probably get the Nobel prize if I did!) but Pierre is correct, although his target is wrong:
    System Preferences/Universal Access/Seeing - turn off VoiceOver.

  • Somehow I turned off the crosshair in the center of the Liquify tool. How does one turn this on/off?

    In PS CS 6, I somehow turned off the crosshair that used to be in the center of the Liquify tool. I'd like to get it back. How does one turn this on/off?

    The newest version of GPU Liquify now obeys the Photoshop preference "Show crosshair in brush tip" under cursors. Check this on in your prefs and you should be good to go.Non-GPU mode always has the crosshairs.
    The cursor ring was also improved to be thinner and less jagged. Also the crosshair size was reduced. Red rubylith was added to see the drag changes in density on vertical drags. Enjoy.
