My "Stay Signed in" Checkbox is checked, but will not stick. Show passwords does show the current password/username in the list. Current Version 3.6.19

I have always used this feature in Firefox (at least 6 years or so) and it has always responded like this:
If I add username/password, then sign_on to Gmail, I used to be able to close Ffox with the 'red X' , then return to gmail with it already open, ie:
Already signed in. This suddenly stopped working. I have checked and rechecked Ffox settings, and even returned everything to defaults, yet cannot find a Ffox reason for this.
I have also checked Gmail procedures, which is where I suspect the real problem is, but so far haven't found an answer. Can anyone confirm that this is not a Firefox problem, but instead is likely a Gmail problem.
Thanks
Gord

  • TS3798 I have a new Ipad, it says I am connected to the internet but will not load . When attempting to go to a web sight, the green bar goes 1/2 inch then nothing

    I have a new ipad, it says I am connected to the internet but will not work. When I attempt to go to a web sight the green bar moves 1/2 inch and nothing.
    I have a used linksys router that I got from work. I tried connecting with a older ipad and every thing works correctly. any ideas?

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Yes, water and electronics do not mix. Water damage can get worse with time.
    You should've left it to fully dry out in a bag of rice for a few days, and hope that the water hasn't corroded any of the electronics inside.

  • HT4437 Airplay on apple tv works from my ipod touch but will not work from my macbook pro.  Any thoughts on wht the problem may be?

    any idea on what the problem is?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Does your MacBook meet the specifications for AirPlay
    Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
    Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
    Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
    Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
    Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Restart your router.
    Restart your mobile device.
    The following article(s) may help you.

  • I sign into my provider OK but, will not load home page.

    My provider is Wildblue.net. They recommended using Mozilla Firefox. Everything seemed to work OK until I upgraded to Firefox 5. When I now try signing into Wildblue, My sign in and password are excepted OK. When I hit Login my computer screen just runs and runs and runs with "waiting for gogglepartnerpage.com". The only way I Have found, for getting it to advance (Load) is to double click on the Homepage Icon in the Wildblue tool bar. (Sometimes more than once)
    Browser speed also appears to have slowed down.
    Is there a compatibility issue with Wildblue and Firefox 5?
    Are others experiencing the same issue?
    Should I return to Firefox 4? If so, how?
    I have used Internet Explorer and don't seem to experience any problem. I would prefer using Mozilla Firefox. That's where my bookmarks are located and Wildblue recommends.

    See this older thread for possible suggestions.

  • Cannot open Firefox 3.6.8 since installing toolbar from Inbox Dollars. Have 2 user accounts on my MacBook and it is fine on my business account, but will not open on my personal account, which is where I installed the toolbar.

    AppleCare tried to help, but since Safari is working fine on both accounts, they said the problem was with Firefox on the personal account and they could not help me any further than what they already tried I do not want to lost it on my business account as well.

    Try using Firefox's Safe Mode to disable the add-on.
    First, make a backup of your computer for safekeeping. To back up Firefox, see [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information].
    Next, start Firefox in Firefox
    [http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode] and temporarily disable add-ons so you can uninstall the problem one.
    Any luck?

  • My windows is stuck during bootcamp and says i need to eject disk but will not allow me to. How can I eject disk?

    Deauthorizing the computer will only cause you to have to enter a password to play iTunes Store purchases on that computer. It doesn't have anything to do with media thats synced to the iPod, other than the account user name is synced too.
    Check this Apple document out -> Using iPad or iPod with multiple computers
    If you want to delete the music library on your device and make the new computer its "home" computer, choose Erase and Sync. iTunes will delete all songs and playlists on your device, and then will copy the music library and playlists from the new home computer to your device.
    If you want to move the iTunes Store purchases on your device to the new computer, choose "Transfer Purchases." The new computer must be set up with your iTunes Store account and authorized to play your iTunes Store purchases in order to transfer your iTunes Store purchases.
    Notes:
    Synchronization generally occurs only in one direction, from your computer to your device. However, if you are legally allowed to transfer song files, you can use your iPod as a hard disk3. An exception is the transfer purchases feature, which allows you to restore purchased iTunes content to an authorized computer from your device.

  • Firefow will not open at all on one computer and on the other it opens but will not load. I just added a new wireless router, could this have anything to do with it, it had been working fine up until I installed it Tuesday night. Internet explorer won't

    I installed a new wireless router on Tues. (May4) up until that time I had no problems using Firefox. Now I cannot get it to open on one computer, and the other it will open but will not load. Wondering if it has anything to do with the router, my provider or our computers. Again, it had been working fine. I am also unable to open interent explorer now on either computer.
    == User Agent ==
    Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; AOL 9.0; Windows NT 5.1; GTB6.4; AskTB5.6)

    Sounds like a problem with the router installation/configuration (likely) or a DOA router (very unlikely).
    Visit the forums for the router manufacturer (i.e., linksys, d-link, etc.) and ask for assistance there. There is probably a link to help listed in the router manual.

    I tried to restart my iPad due to problems with a Pinterest app that took up a lot of storage in the cache...now the apple logo comes up but will not start...it has recently been charged

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

  • Adobe premier elements 11 downloaded but will not install

    adobe premier elements 11 downloaded but will not install?

    Hunt
    What you just wrote may have revealed the Photoshop Elements Premiere Elements integration consideration. If you have Premiere Elements 11, you need Photoshop Elements 11 for the integration between the programs to produce the DVD version of the Photoshop Elements Slideshow.
    All along I was picturing Meyerswalter already in Premiere Elements 11/Publish+Share/Disc/DVD and being told to install Premiere Elements to get the burn to disc accomplished.
    But, if Meyerswalter is using Premiere Elements 11 and a non integrated version of Photoshop Elements for this matter, that could very well fit.
    So, Meyeswalter, so that we can dispel those thoughts
    a. What versions of Photoshop Elements are you using with Premiere Elements 11? And, are you in the Photoshop Elements Slideslide Show Editor using the Output of Burn to Disc DVD or Edit with Premiere Elements Editor and getting the load software message somewhere along the line?
    b. To prove this point, if you have not already, what happens if you take Photoshop Elements out of the equation. Import some media into Premiere Elements 11 and try to burn to disc from there Publish+Share/Disc/DVD?
    If that is the core of the issue, I will post a list of Photoshop Elements Premiere Elements integrated combos as a guideline for you.
    If this is the core of the issue, you could always keep the non Photoshop Elements 11 version that you have, output the slideshow to a wmv file sized for DVD and then import that into Premiere Elements 11 via its Add Media. More on that later if necessary since right now I am speculating on an explanation for what you are encountering.
    Thanks.

    Yes the original Install Discs can be replaced for a nominal fee. Call AppleCare, you will need a credit card and the serial number of the machine. You can use the AppleCare Contact Info for the phone number on your part of the planet.

  • TS1398 My ipad will not connect to other wifi networks. It has connected to my main home network but will not connect to the booster network in my home (it has previously!) It will also not connect to other networks outside my home.

    Hi
    I just got new router and had to reset my network settings on IPad. Since then, my ipad will connect onto the main home network but will not attach to my extension booster (netgear) which is linked to the home network. It will also not attach to networks outside my home that it has previously worked with. i have reset the settings again, powered off and on again, updated to the latest IOS update, but nothing is working. Please help, as I can only use wifi in a few rooms in my house and i do not have 3G on my my ipad.

    Did you try forgetting the network and starting all over again?
    Settings>WiFi>Network Name>Tap the blue arrow>Forget this Network. Restart your iPad and then try joining again.
    Try rebooting your router. Even though everything else may be connecting to your Network, it might help with the iPad. Unplug the router for about 30 seconds and then plug it in again.
    Reset Network settings on the iPad?
    Settings>>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. You will have to start all over again, Tap WiFi in the settings, find your network and enter the password.

  • 7th Gen Non and iMac appear on each others device list but will not connect

    My new 7th Gen nano and imac appear in each others blue tooth devices list but will not connect.   I've tried several time and have reset the nano twice. All suggestions greatfully received.
    Al

    Hey Al,
    I read that your iPod nano is compatible with the following Bluetooth items: headsets, speakers, and hands-free systems in some automobiles. These are the profiles it supports:
    Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP)
    With the Advanced Audio Distribution Profile, you can stream high-quality audio (stereo or mono) from one device to another over a Bluetooth connection. Use it to play music wirelessly from iPod nano to a wireless headset or a compatible car audio system.
    Audio/Video Remote Control Profile (AVRCP)
    With this profile, you can remotely control playback functions on the iPod nano from compatible devices (commonly Bluetooth devices that use the A2DP profile). iPod nano works with the pause, play, stop, next track, and previous track commands.
    Bluetooth Low Energy (BT LE)
    Use low-powered Bluetooth accessories with the Bluetooth Low Energy profile. iPod nano works with Bluetooth Smart Heart Rate Monitors.
    via: iPod nano (7th generation): Supported Bluetooth profiles
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5479
    That sounds like it might be why you're having difficulty connecting. If you want to sync your iPod nano with iTunes, I'd read through this document:
