My bookmarks display the wrong favicons FF3.6.12 MAC OS X 10.6.5

After I visit a site, I find that the favicon for that site attaches itself to/replaces the favicon for one or more bookmarks for other sites. I can clear the cache, reboot, revisit a bookmarked page and everything reverts to normal. Unfortunately, the problem repeats itself. I don't want to have to keep clearing or deleting/resetting bookmarks. Is there a permanent solution to this bug?

I have this problem after upgrading to FF 5.0.1 -- which I did after installing Lion. I cleared my history and cache. Restarted all. I still get the wrong favicon in the bookmarks toolbar and in the address line. This is really frustrating. The correct favicons appear when I use Safari and Chrome. Surely there must be a way to fix this problem.

  • Calendar app icon is displaying the wrong date

    For some reason on my iPhone's homescreen the icon for the Calendar app has today started displaying the wrong date.
    It should show today's date, Monday 6th but instead it reads Sunday 5th.
    What confuses me is that the phone does know the date is Monday 6th as the lock screen shows it correctly and also when I actually load the Calendar app it starts on the right date. Also, when I load the multi task bar the Calendar app icon there is correct. See the attached photo, which shows the Calendar app on the home screen (faded, middle left) displaying yesterdays date Sunday 5th, while the app icon in the multi task bar is correct, Monday 6th.
    Syncing the calendar with my iMac does not correct the error. Equally, turning the phone off and on again has not sorted it.
    Does anyone have any idea what might be causing the fault? And more importantly how to correct it?
    Thanks.

    Thanks for the suggestion DaVBMan, sadly it didn't work. The only thing that did work was to wait until midnight and it corrected itself. In the mind of the phone it lived a whole day twice and then skipped one completely in order to get back on track. Very odd and also I have since discovered it has happened to a few of my friends too.
    It's not happened again so I have no idea what so ever what caused it. Fingers crossed it never recurs.

  • Mail app displays the wrong Inbox when you open it.

    This problem can be easily reproduced if you have more than one email account configured in iOS 4.x
    It should be extremely simple to fix with the next update. I see that this same problem has been mentioned before, but I couldn't update that thread because it's "archived." If you want Apple to fix this, please report the issue to Apple using one or more of the links below:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipodtouch.html

    http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html (not sure if iPad Mail app is affected)
    Here's what I submitted...
    Subject:
    Simple software design issue in Mail app.
    Feedback Type:
    Design/Ease of Use
    Comments:
    Thanks for your work on making iOS better and better with each update! There is no option to provide general iOS feedback, so I'll submit this under "iPhone" and "iPod." I'm currently using the latest iOS (4.3.1).
    The native Mail app in iOS has had the Unified Inbox feature since iOS 4.0, which is very useful. However, there is a minor design flaw that could be easily resolved with a software update.
    My setup:
    I have 3 Exchange accounts on my device (Hotmail, Gmail[Default], Work). The Hotmail Inbox is empty at least 98% of the time because my Gmail account periodically downloads the messages. The only reason I have the Hotmail account entered on my device is to make sure I can see a message in "All Inboxes" even before my Google account retrieves it. On my device, the Gmail account is set as default for Mail and Contacts.
    The problem:
    I never intentionally select the Inbox for the Hotmail account because it should almost always be empty. I would simply view "All Inboxes." Still, half the time I open the Mail app, it shows the empty Hotmail Inbox. This is very annoying!
    I finally figured out how to reproduce it consistently:
    (must have more than one account configured)
    1) Launch the Mail app and back-up to the screen that shows the list of accounts / Inboxes (I usually try to leave it here when I'm done, hoping to see that screen the next time I open Mail).
    2) Without selecting a specific account or Inbox, push the Home button to exit the Mail app.
    3) Kill the Mail process from the multi-tasking menu.
    4) Open Mail again
    Mail will show whichever Inbox comes immediately after "All Inboxes", even if it's not your default account. In my case, it starts in the empty Hotmail Inbox every time...a folder that I never intentionally select. Each time, I have to go back to the list and tap "All Inboxes."
    So, if I leave Mail on the root screen before killing the process, it consistently displays the wrong Inbox the next time I open it. If I select an Inbox or "All Inboxes," it will remember that selection and show me that screen the next time I open Mail.
    What it should do:
    When Mail doesn't know which Inbox to display, it should...
    A. Start on the root screen with the list of accounts and Inboxes (preferred option).
    or B. Start in "All Inboxes" (secondary preference).
    or C. Start in the Inbox of the default account (not preferred, but better than showing an empty/unused Inbox).
    Thank you!

    Try this...
    Launch the Mail app.
    Navigate to the "Mailboxes" page (the page that lists all of your accounts).
    Tap "Edit" in the top right corner.
    Scroll down to the bottom section of the page, titled "ACCOUNTS".
    Drag the triple-bars on the right to reorder the accounts listed. The first account listed will be the one that the app launches to.
    Hope this helps, I went crazy trying to figure that out and it worked for me.

  • How to fix iPhone 5 from displaying the wrong time

    Work up the day is daylight savings time and come to find out my iPhone was displaying the wrong time tried to switch from manual and automatic quick to see if it worked and nothing turned it on airplane mode still didn't work and I noticed I'm also having problems with my service please help

    If it is on automatic time, then the time is received from the carrier. If you say you are having "service" problems, I am assuming you mean your carrier. It could be an overall carrier problem. Contact them.

  • Mouse cursor displays the wrong icon

    My cursor still changes based on the context, like hovering over a link or in a text field, but displays the wrong icon.  After focusing a text field, the cursor is a reggular arrow in the text editor and turns to the text staff outside of it when it should be an arrow. 
    I just did a fresh install of 10.6.8 on a crucial m4 - ct256m4ssd
    I FOUND THAT RESIZING THE MOUSE CURSOR IN THE UNIVERSAL ACCESSS PREFERENCES temporarily restores the cursor to a size-adjusted mouse, until I do something like click in a text field.

    just re-install the os

  • Why does the iphone 5 always display the wrong time

    why does the iphone 5 always display the wrong time

    I had similar problem. My iPhone was always about 3 minutes faster than the correct time here in the UK which I found to be very irritating. It just came to a head because here in the UK we have just changed from British Summer Time back to standard GMT. This actually worked automatically except that the iPhone time still showed it to be about 3 minutes faster than GMT. However I have now cured the problem (almost) by going to
         Settings/General/ Date & Time/ and then selected the "Set Automatically" button.
    The clock then immediately jumped back 3 minutes and now the iPhone time is only about 10 seconds slow which is good enough for me.

  • IPhone displays the wrong song information

    Hello,
    Recently I have noticed that my phone often displays the wrong songs and information.  What I mean is, when I tap on an artist, it shows the wrong songs.  For example, if I listened to AC/DC and then try to change it and listen to Alice in Chains, the phone still displays the AC/DC songs.  This is very aggravating and I seem to be the only person who has this problem.  I checked the song info on itunes and everything is correct.  Any ideas?
    Thank you,
    Brad

    This has been happening to me for while now and would love to get an answer or fix.

    Try to remove history and bookmarks entries that are wrong and revisit the site(s).
    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • Acrobat X displaying the wrong font

    I've been using Acrobat X for a few weeks. The other day it installed an update. Since then my documents aren't displaying the font used by the orginal Office 2010 documents.
    If I create the PDF from Office 2010 by selecting "save as Adobe PDF" from Word or Excel file menu then Acrobat X renders it using Adobe Serif MM instead of Times New Roman. It seems like a close enough match.
    If I create the PDF in Office using "save as" and choose the PDF file type then Acrobat X will substite Adobe Sans MM for Times New Roman,
    If I send this to a person who is using Acrobat 9 it is being displayed as Times New Roman.
    Does anyone know how I can make this work? We have a lot of pdf documents that were created using Office 2007 & 2010.

    Hi Louis,
    If I understand you correctly, you are saying that problem started with updating Acrobat 10.0.1 to 10.0.2 and it is there in both Save as "PDF" and  Save as "Adobe PDF"
    With Save as Adobe PDF, you see Adobe Serif MM font and
    With Save as PDF, you see Adobe Sans MM font.
    where the actual font is TimeNewRoman.
    Am I correct?
    Also when you say that "If I send this to a person who is using Acrobat 9" do you mean that you are sending above Acrobat 10.0.2 created PDF to a person who will view this in Acrobat 9? And there this PDF shows correct font. Please correct me if I am wrong.
    I tried this for a sample file with Acrobat 10.0.2+Office 2010 Pro Plus+Win7 SP1 but couldn't able to reproduce. So based on above queries we will investigate it more. If possible please share your source file also (you can upload it on acrobat.com)
    Thanks,

  • Entering a Value and Tabbing out of af:inputListOfValues displays the wrong value

    Good morning. I am having an issue with the autosubmit and tabbing out of af:inputListOfValues in my code.
    Problem: When I type in a valid value and tab out of the field, it ignores the value I entered and displays whatever the first list in the query result instead regardless of the value I typed.
    My code snippet. What it does is simply an LoV search of Employee No attached to an entity attribute and depending on selection, it will display the Employee Name within the page. (it also retrieves a table view depending what employee number was entered)
    <af:inputListOfValues id="empNoId"
                 popupTitle="Search and Select: #{bindings.EmpNo.hints.label}"
                  value="#{bindings.EmpNo.inputValue}"
                  label="#{bindings.EmpNo.hints.label}"
                  model="#{bindings.EmpNo.listOfValuesModel}"
                  required="#{bindings.EmpNo.hints.mandatory}"
                  columns="#{bindings.EmpNo.hints.displayWidth}"
                 shortDesc="#{bindings.EmpNo.hints.tooltip}"
                   binding="#{workLocationBean.txtEmpNo}"
                  partialTriggers="id1"
                 valueChangeListener="{bean.onEmpNoChange}"    
                 autoSubmit="true">
            <f:validator binding="#{bindings.EmpNo.validator}"/>
      </af:inputListOfValues>
    Other things to note:
    When I enter a valid employee number and click anywhere in the page (not TAB), it behaves correctly.
    I have been trying to figure this out for days. Even my valueChangeListener gets the wrong value (when I do System.out) when I tab out so I am not sure where to catch it and replace it with the correct value.
    Thank you.

    This usually happens when primary key is not set in view object used by LOV.

  • Coverflow and Front Row display the WRONG artwork

    I have tried all the answers I can find and also some more in depth ones as well....
    (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1284758)
    I have made sure there is only ONE artwork in the 'get info' of the track (the correct one)
    I have deleted the Album art folder (download and local) in the iTunes music folder
    I have deleted cache and preferences where I could find them for both iTunes and Front Row
    I have restarted!
    YET the same **** WRONG artwork still shows in the COVERFLOW and when using FRONT ROW to access your music with the remote!
    Can't find anything about this from Apple.... Surely this is an easy fix for Apple......?
    The last changed artwork (by modify date) is the one that coverflow and Front row should use...???
    iTunes displays the correct artwork, 'get info' shows there is only ONE artwork (the correct one)
    I have deleted everything I can think off and yet Coverflow and Front Row still display the old, incorrect artwork! and get this... if I delete the artwork completely, so it is the default "no artwork" icon that itunes displays Frontrow and coverflow STILL display the old incorrect one!
    Reading these forums I am amazed that something as basic and integral to the iTunes/iLife experience has been so blatently ignored and left to the users/forums to muddle through!
    Come on Apple! get your act together! this is crazy...
    I am NOT the only one with this problem!
    ANYWAY.... any advice?

    Me Also.
    Right now I only notice it on one album.
    Both the song playing and the artwork in the info box are correct, it's only coverflow that is wrong.

  • Mac mini displays the wrong resolution

    Hi everybody.
    My Mac mini recently began starting up in the wrong resolution (1024x768, instead of the usual 1280x1024.) From my experience with older, 680x0 Macs, I reset the PRAM. This fixed the problem, but I find that I have to do it every time I restart the computer.
    Is there a battery inside the mini that needs to be replaced?
    Thanks.
    Intel mini (1.5GHz Core Solo)   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    Mr E,
    Try using the Finder to search for files with the name 'windowserver' (no quotes of course. You should find 2 or 3, including one with a string of additional alphanumeic characters. Move all three to the trash and then reboot.
    These are the files that control screen properties, and the system will recreate new ones in the absence of the originals. Startup may produce an erroneous resolution if your screen is not tightly connected and thus not properly recognized, but if so, aside from checking the connections are firm and tight as suggested, you should then be able to set the required resolution and have the system retain it correctly.
