N800 os2008 combined: settings lost over reboot, U...

Loaded the combined os2008 onto my n800. Wifi worked (unlike the n800-specific version), lots of other things worked. But there are differences.
- word choice and word prediction during typing used to be defaulted on; now off. Turn them on, they work fine and still use my saved information from before. Turn n800 off last night, turn it on today, and the settings have all been lost - I had to turn them on again.
- concern - what other settings are getting lost over reboot?
- auto capitalization used to UPSHIFT the keyboard to indicate that it was shifting the first letter of a word. not now. caused me problems with a password until i realized i had turned it on along word prediction.

I've got the same thing happening on a newly flashed N800. The settings seem to disappear at random. I haven't been able to discern a pattern yet, but, like you, seem to lose them always over a power cycle.
I've had my N800 three days and seeing your post makes me think I don't have a defective unit. When and how does suspicious new behavior turn into a bug?

  • [Solved] Catalyst Control Center settings lost after reboot

    Hi
    After having a working desktop I decided not to use xinerama because it wouldn't work with the composite extension. So i decided to start from scratch. After following the wiki on making a dual-head setup in my xorg.conf file it kind of worked (cloned display 1280x1024). I changed settings in ccc and all was perfect (Big desktop 3200x1080). But then after restarting all ccc configuration was lost.
    xorg.conf:
    Section "ServerLayout"
    Identifier "screen-layout"
    Screen 0 "screen0" 1920 0
    EndSection
    Section "Monitor"

    EndSection

    EndSection
    And here is the log:

    Does anyone know how to fix this or have a better solution on dual-head without xinerama?

    I just realized that I wont need to be able to drag windows between screens. heh
    I got it mostly right now. It's just that my second screen is black. You can move the mouse there but thats it. I will keep on working.
    My .xinitrc
    cat .xinitrc
    #!/bin/sh
    # ~/.xinitrc
    # Executed by startx (run your window manager from here)
    if [ -d /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d ]; then
    for f in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/*; do
    [ -x "$f" ] && . "$f"
    done
    unset f
    fi
    setxkbmap -layout se
    exec awesome
    The xorg.conf.d should be untouched
    sudo ls /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/
    10-evdev.conf 50-joystick.conf 50-vmmouse.conf
    10-quirks.conf 50-synaptics.conf
    The main issue and reason I started over was that Composite wouldn't work when xinerama was enabled.

  • ITunes settings lost after reboot

    I have a problem where after a reboot the settings of iTunes are back to default. For example:
    it loses the account for the Store (I have to re-enter email address and password);
    it loses the wifi sync settings for my devices
    it shows the iTunes tutorials screen, as if I'm starting iTunes for the first time
    settings under preferences are lost
    Other things are not lost:
    the library is still there;
    iTunes remembers the devices (when connecting it is handled as a known device) and knows what playlists/apps/.. to sync with it.
    Since I'm not rebooting my Windows 7 PC a lot, the problem is not occuring a lot, it doesn't keep me from using iTunes, it is just annoying. Now after rebooting I decided it's enough and I would post the issue (since I can't seem to find a comparable issue).
    Also worthwile noticing is that the problem is already there for some time, though I can't exactly pinpoint anymore when it started. Possible when iTunes 9 or 10 were realeased.
    Now I'm using:
    Windows 7 64-bit (completly up to date)
    iTunes 10.5.2.11
    Thanks for any help!

  • Xfce4 Settings lost on reboot

    Settings that I make for the the Panel such as Size/Position and launchers are not saved after a reboot, also settings made for Xterm are not saved.
    I'm asuming these settings are simply saved in some file in my home directory?
    So I'm not sure what could be going on here?

    have you tried saving the session when you shutdown
    you can try creating ~/.Xdefaults for xterm, like this for example.....

  • Settings lost after reboot (1841)

    After learning the basics of this router over the past few days I can't get the actual setup/settings to remain saved after the router has been shut down for a day or two (still learning and experimenting).
    Having set it up the way I want it, both through console and SDM I either save the config through SDM or "wr me" through the console and the settings are saved without any issues.
    However, whenever I've turned it off and then on again I get the "Would you like to enter initial configration dialog? [yes/no]". I've always chosen "no". I get the message that the router has undergone a cold start and my interfaces are set in a administratively down state.
    Doing a "show running-setup" reveals all of my settings have been reset.
    What am I doing wrong?

  • Hyper-V 2012 R2 - Linux Guest VLAN Settings lost after reboot

    Hi Guys,
    last night a have seen a strange behavior with a Sophos UTM 9.204020 Linux Guest VM. (This VM is based on SUSE SLES v11? i think)
    So i have Setup this in my home lab and experienced the same problem.
    ----Setup-----
    2 External VM Switches
    Management OS is on VLAN 4093 with IP 192.168.20.1
    The guest network adapter is in Trunk Mode, VLAN Tag (4093) is set in the guest OS with IP 192.168.20.100
    Everything works until you kick off a reboot from the guest or hyper-v console, after the reboot you loose the connectivity on the network adapter with the vlan trunk.
    If you shutdown the guest and start it everthing works again - this happens only on reboot!!
    I have tried diffrent things (static mac, enable disable hardware features (vmq/offloading etc) on the vm network adapter but always the same error.
    After some search on the net i have found this article: Link 
    This guy has the same problem with another linux vm (based on debian) his workaround was to trigger a powershell script with the eventlog after reboot of the vm, this works for me too but this must be bug?
    Has anyone else experienced this problem?
    André

    Hi Andre,
    I would suggest you to install the supported Linux guest OS on hyper-v , please refer to following link:

  • Photoshop Workspace Settings Lost Every Reboot

    If Photoshop crashes, or if I restart my computer, my workspace settings are set back to default. Actions specifically, though other settings seem impacted intermittently. Add-ons (purchased actions) disappear. Any ideas would be appreciated.
    On an aside, the removal of the 'oil paint' filter from CS6 to CC is really disappointing.
    Thank you.

  • "Open With" settings lost on reboot

    All file type associations are reset to their defaults when the machine is shut down. Where are the configuration files stored?

    I ended up following the link at the end of that tip to find other solutions (I wasn't content with running a script when logging in), which, interestingly enough, linked back to the Apple support forums.
    Anyway, I came across this post which works perfectly and doesn't require a script:
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=9468630#9468630
    At the end of that thread, there are a few people who said that they no longer have this problem in Snow Leopard... Maybe I'm experiencing an edge case?
    In any case, thanks for your help!

  • HT4623 After updating, I've lost over half my Applications from Home screen, including Setting, Safari, Camera and more plus all original downloaded Apps. How do I get them back?

    After updating my iPhone 4S with ios6, it seems I have lost over half the Applications from the Home Screen, including Settings, Safari, Camera, Photos and more plus all the original downloaded Applications. Can anyone help please?

    The built in apps can't be deleted.  If you want them reset back to their original arrangement on your screen, go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.  If your purchased apps are missing, either sync them back to your phone with iTunes or redownload them for free (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519).

  • (SOLVED) Tvheadend: Configuration lost on reboot

    Hello.
    I managed to configure Tvheadend on my computer and it works great.
    My problem is when the computer restarts: For some reason the settings are lost on reboot and I have to configure everything again every time when I turn the computer on.
    I save the changes when the program is configurated but the computer loses the settings at start.
    Please, help me.
    Last edited by Belgarath (2013-12-25 23:38:22)

    I configured the program from the web interface and I can see the TV channels and the EPG information even from other computers on my network but curiously the program does not create the folder you mention,
    I do not know why that folder is not created and I do not know where it saves the data.
    The .hts folder does not appear anywhere in my home directory: It is not in ~/.hts  and is not in ~/.config/.hts or similar places.
    Should I create  ~/.hts/tvheadend  manually? If so, what should I put in that file?
    Excuse me for my deficient english.

  • HKLM Permissions lost after reboot

    Hello All.
    I have a need to give the Everyone group full control over the root HKLM hive of the registry. I have used the RegEdit GUI and the regini command to grant full control to the Everyone group for the HKLM Key and Subkeys. However, once I reboot the workstation,
    the permissions have reverted back to the original.
    The local administrators group is the owner of the HKLM key, and I am logged in as a member of this group when making the permission changes. I have UAC disabled, and have tried regedt32.exe > Run as Administrator and cmd.exe > Run as Administrator,
    and I can set and confirm the permission changes with error, but the changes are lost after reboot. No AV is installed.
    Does anyone have any clue what I am missing here?
    Thank you in advance!

    Hi,
    I cannot repro such issue on my computer. This should be something wrong during restarting or the admin account.
    If you have any other admin account, please log on with it and try to grant the permission you would like to see what’s going on.
    To make sure that other program reset permission during restarting, please test this issue when booting into Safe mode and let me know the results.
    If the issue still persists in safe mode, please help to collect the boot trace for further research.

  • HT204150 I deleted my duplicate contacts one by one on my iPad but have lost over 600 contacts on my iPad they are all on my iPhone but when I sync my iCloud I only have 200 contact on my iPad but have all 820 on my iPhone can any one help

    I deleted my duplicate contacts one by one on my iPad but have lost over 600 contacts on my iPad they are all on my iPhone but when I sync my iCloud I only have 200 contact on my iPad but have all 820 on my iPhone can any one help

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.

  • I switched to iPhone 5C and lost over 150 iTunes I've paid for! How do I get them back?

    Lost over 100 purchased iTunes when I switched to 5C from 4. How do I get them back?

    You sync your device to iTunes and resync the music.
    If the music is not in your iTunes library, log in with your Apple ID & password and download your past purchases, and then resync.
    Or, you can download previous iTunes purchases directly to your device, via wi-fi.
