My privacy settings are not working properly!

I had to block more than 20 people today! Everytime I hit "people in my contacts only" and then click save, it goes right back to "anyone"! This is seriously getting out of hand, please help!

not sure of the logic behind this procedure, but it seems to fix the such problems in many cases.  switch to offline status for 5-10 seconds, then revert back to online.  Then try to change your privacy settings afterwards.

  • Re: Satellite L750 - advanced mouse settings are not working properly

    Satellite L750 model (One month old). The problem is that every time I start the computer, only works the point device of the mouse synaptics , but retains the advanced settings as pressing with three fingers, turns or you can use the wheel to move up and down the page. The funny thing is that is activated by clicking the mouse icon in the Control Panel. Once I access the icon, the mouse works perfectly and appears in the toolbar.
    In Device Management, tells me that works perfectly and that the driver is updated.
    Does anyone think of any solution? thanks

    Hi
    To be honest, I dont really understand what you are talking about.
    Do you have problems with the USB mouse or the touchpad?
    What device does not work correctly: mouse or touchpad?
    The L750 series supports an touchpad with additional feature called Gesture (Multi Touch).
    Here you can find nice description on Synaptics page how it works.
    http://www.synaptics.com/solutions/technology/touchpad
    Furthermore the settings could be found in control panel -> mouse -> Advanced tab
    FYI: You can disable and enable the touchpad function pressing the small button above the touchpad surface (On/OFF).

  • Privacy settings STILL not working - sort it out s...

    i always have my privacy settings fixed so that all options are set to "contacts" only.  however i am STILL getting messages from random strangers saying that i appear interesting.
    i'm not interesting. i have no interest in receiving these messages.  i have updated my software and rechecked all the privacy settings but i still get these messages.
    skype - can you PLEASE sort this out because it's getting so i don't even want to log in.  it's SO ANNOYING!!!!!
    i'm running on a mac (lion) - updating doesn't help. any other ideas? frankly at the moment i don't see why skype even bothers to have security settings - this is not the first time (by any means) that this has happened: they shouldn't make these kind of settings promises if they can't keep them.

  • Ive just upgraded my late 2009 macbook, and things are not working properly. First of all, when I started the computer first time after installing Mountain Lion, some message advised me that some files were impossible to install.

    Ive just upgraded my late 2009 macbook, and things are not working properly. First of all, when I started the computer first time after installing Mountain Lion, some message advised me that some files were impossible to install. Once I wrote my password, and for now on, everytime I start the session, another window advise me that "Java SE 6" is missing, due that, the computer can't run some "CS5Service Manager". If I try to install it, the download ends with an error. If finally, you skip the istallation, you arrive to the dock, but the menu bar at the top of the screen doesn't show up.
    In addition, my trackpad doesn't works either. I can move the arrow but i can't click anywhere, probably because the option of clicking by touching is disabeled and I can't performance a regular click.
    I'll be very glad if someone know what the heck is happening with my computer. Anyway, I'm going to the genius bar next Saturday. Thx!

    We're sorry.

  • After Security updation of Windows 7 in Boot Camp (Mac Book Pro with Retina Display) on 13-Nov-2013, Windows 7 Desktop Gadgets are not working properly.

    After Security updation of Windows 7 in Boot Camp (Mac Book Pro with Retina Display) on 13-Nov-2013, Windows 7 Desktop Gadgets are not working properly.
    This is boot camp problem, because in other normal notebooks (e.g. SONY VAIO, Lenovo with Windows 7) the gadgets are working normally.
    I am attaching the screen shot of Desktop Gadgets and Security updates of Windows 7.
    Kindly solve this issue ASAP.

    Have you reinstalled the latest Boot Camp Windows 7 drivers, just in case Microsoft overwrote some of them during the Windows 7 security update?

  • Why the games are not working properly in my ipad after installing iOS7

    Why games are not working properly in my ipad in my iOS 7

    The games you mention would have been written and therefore designed for the previous version of iOS - you've most likely had a lot of updates lately in the run-up to the release of iOS 7 and if these games haven't had an update then chances are these will need to be adapted to iOS 7 by the developers if not working correctly.

  • I am facing problem in playing yahoo pool in Firefox 4 while it was working fine in Firefox 3.6. In Firefox 4 the combination of mouse keys are not working properly.

    I am facing problem in playing yahoo pool in Firefox 4 while it was working fine in Firefox 3.6. In Firefox 4 the combination of mouse keys are not working properly.

    I updated to Firefox 4.01 today and the middle scroll button on my Lenovo T400 stopped working. I downloaded the updated Ultranav utility and the Ultranav driver for my T400 from here http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-72858.html and then uninstalled the "Thinkpad Ultranav Driver" from Add/Remove programs rebooted and then installed the updated utility and driver (another reboot) and it now works perfectly.
    So glad to get this working again.

  • My earphones are not working properly

    My earphones are not working properly. My rightside earphone is not sounding as the left one. Is there any solution to retify it? I just want to have the original sound on my earphones.
    What is the cost of the new set of earphones?

    Just ring the Apple customer care number for your country. My nano earphones were also faulty, the right one was twice as loud as the left one which was rather distracting. It took about 10 days for the new one's to arrive but the stupid muppets sent me the wrong earphones, they sent me one's that are sold with the full sized ipods not the earphones which come with the nano!.

  • My laptop speakers are not working properly so wanted to visit service centers of hp in london

    from yesterday night my laptop HP pavilion g6 speakers are not working properly. out of many only one speaker is working so i want to visit authorized service centers so that i can fix the issue.

    Hi,
    Try the following.
    Download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
    http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp56001-56500/sp5646​0.exe
    When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers.  Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
    When complete, shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery.  Hold  down the Power button for 30 seconds.  Re-insert the battery and plug in the AC Adapter.
    Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to launch the Start-up Menu and then select f10 to enter the bios menu.  Press f5 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f9, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.  Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
    Let Windows fully load - it will automatically load an audio driver, but just let this complete.  Then open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation.  When this has completed, right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices.  Left click 'Speakers and Headphones' once to highlight it and then click the Set Default button - check if this has had any effect on the audio issue.

    DP-K

  • Left and right arrow keys are not working properly now

    I searched the forum and didn't see this posted. My left and right arrow keys are not working properly now.
    For example, when typing, left arrow does not produce the desired action (move cursor one spot to the left), and right arrow does not produce the desired action (move cursor one spot to the right). Also, control + left no longer activates spaces, and control + right no longer activates spaces.
    Interestingly, in investigating the problem, I noticed that my shortcut keys for activating spaces and for activating expose had been changed (software update?). Before, I had set F5 (without pressing fn) for expose and had set F6 (without pressing fn) for spaces. Now, I noticed spaces was set back to the default of F8 (requiring fn).
    The issue persists after shut down, and even when logged on to other users, e.g. Guest.
    All other keys seem to be working fine, including the up and down arrows.
    I don't think it's a cleaning issue because fn + left + right produces the "[" character on the screen.
    Any ideas?

    I'm having the same type of issue on my MacBook except not with arrow keys. The volume keys do different things when I click on them. For example, the mute key brings up the dashboard and the volume up key makes all the open screens smaller (don't know what this feature is called). I did a software update then restarted the computer when this starting happening. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

  • Scrolling effects in Muse are not working properly with the Chrome browser at the moment.

    My scrolling effects in Muse are not working properly in the Chrome browser .I disabled any third party widgets to see if that was the problem but it wasn't. Safari and firefox presented my site perfectly but when it was opened in chrome the menu navigation bar will not stop moving uncontrollably jittering when the page is scrolled. Does anyone know what I can do to fix this? My site is danieltoruno01.businesscatalyst.com

    We are using Vertical spry menu bar features provided with Dreamweaver CS3.
    You are using Spry 1.4.
    The latest  version of the Adobe Spry Framework is 1.6.1, this is the same version  that ships with Dreamweaver CS4.
    When using Dreamweaver CS3 (uses Spry  1.4), it's wise to upgrade your files to the latest version. This can  easily be done using the Spry Updater that can be found here.
    If after that you still have problems, please come back here.
