New Tab Page - thumbnails are not using the files from cache folder, but they want a connection to their origin website.

Hi there,
each time I visit a website, FireFox saves a thumbnail of all these sites for the "New Tab Page". Those thumbnails are cached in the 'thumbnails' Folder . That's so far ok for me.
The problem is:
Every time if I use the "New Tab Page" (...after shutdown & reopening the browser and only with 'mousehoover' on any thumbnail) all the thumbnails on that page don't use the cached thumbnails from the local profile folder.
This means:
Instead of using the cached thumbnail-files all(!) these thumbnails dials to their origin websites without(!) a mouseclick on any of these thumbnails (...see jpg pictures) !
I'm using the "Clear history when Firefox closes" with the following options:
privacy.clearOnShutdown.cache - true
privacy.clearOnShutdown.cookies - true
privacy.clearOnShutdown.downloads - false
privacy.clearOnShutdown.formdata - true
privacy.clearOnShutdown.history - false(!)
privacy.clearOnShutdown.offlineApps - false
privacy.clearOnShutdown.passwords - true
privacy.clearOnShutdown.sessions - true
privacy.clearOnShutdown.siteSettings - false(!)
So, i can't believe that this homedialing of pinned and unpinned thumbnails should be a normal function.
1. Screenshot: thumbnails in the New Tab Page
2. Screenshot: the same thumbnails in the Cache Folder "thumbnails" (...also they are there after shutdown of Firefox)
3. Screenshot: Dialing to the origin websites (...after restart of Firefox)
The Browser Version is Firefox ESR 31.2.0 and in the installation are no Add-ons, which are - for example - prefetching linked websites.
I would like to use the "New Tab Page" without 'homedialing', so the question is:
How can I force the thumbnails to use the cached thumbnail-files ?
or
How can i disable the 'loading of content from their origin websites' already on mousehoover ?

There is a preload pref available that you could try to disable on the <b>about:config</b> page.
*browser.newtab.preload = false
You can open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location/address bar.
You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.

In Firefox v33, new tab page thumbnails are blurry and over-sized

Since updating to Firefox v33, my new tab page thumbnails are blurry. They are also over-sized compared to what they were before the update.

Firefox automatically adjusts the number of columns that fit on the about:newtab page if you adjust the width of the Firefox window or zoom the page in or out and no longer resizes the thumbnails.
The current release doesn't resize the thumbnails, but instead reduces the number of tiles to fit the current screen width, so you may not see the number of columns that is specified via the browser.newtabpage.columns pref.
Zoom out the about:newtab page to see more tiles.
Make sure that you have only one tab with the about:newtab page open.

New tab page thumbnails are blank - always blank

I've updated to FF 13.0 (Linux) and was keen to have a look at the Opera-like tthumbnails when opening a new page from the tab bar.
I open the page that should have small renderings of recently visited sites and I'm presented with empty squares with text labels to indicate what page they link to.
I've tried the "'''click on the blank square and wait for the page to completely load'''' solution but that doesn't work.
What should I try next?

I was having this issue too. Changing my privacy settings allowed the thumbnails to appear.
# Go to Edit > Preferences > Privacy.
# Under Privacy there's a checkbox for Clear history when Firefox closes and to the right a Settings button.
# Click the Settings button and uncheck Browsing History and Cache.
# Restart FF.
# The thumbnails appear after you revisit sites.
The text "Clear history when Firefox closes" seems misleading, since it is affecting behavior ''before'' FF closes. I guess these setting aren't just for clearing history but ''writing'' history too. Is that a bug? I'm on Ubuntu with FF 13.0.1.

My grandkids are visiting us in NJ from another state, but they can't connect to our WiFi. How do we get them to connect

I know I have a WiFi connect, because I checked with Verizon to confirm the User ID, Password, and Encrypt Type, but our grandchildren can't seem to connect with the iPad Touch, or our son with his iPhone. Advice, anyone?

Have you ever successfully connected anything to your wifi router? Is your network name being broadcast by the router? Is your network name showing up on their devices as available wifi signals? What happens when they click on your network name in the available signals on their device(s)? Are they typing in the correct password, keeping in mind the password IS case sensitive.
Not much help we can give with the limited amount of information you have provided.

'You Are Not Using The Correct Type of Phone Cord' Error

Having a issue with my fax on my HP Officejet Pro 8500 wireless. Tried to send a fax, it received a send error. I ran fax test and it came back with "You are not using the correct type of phone cord". Nothing has changed since I last fax'd but I check the lines and connection, everything appears ok. Phone jack is connected to 1-line and Officejet '2-ext' is connected to the phone. I use a dedicated phone # and the Officejet is set to auto answer. I can call out and receive calls on the phone connect to the Officejet. My assumption is that since I can use the phone without issue there is nothing wrong with the phone line. Any ideas?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

I was having the same problem. I'm using a the 2 wire phone cord provided with the printer and still getting this error. Turns out that it related to have a phone extension plugged into the printer. If I unplug the telephone form the extension jack on the back of the printer, then the fax test passes. I was even using a 2 wire cord on the phone extension but it seems that simply having a telephone plugged into the extension jack will cause this error.
Run the test without a telephone plugged into the printer's extension jack and you should be fine.
Worked for me!

Icloud or itunes backup, only backs up app data, not the app itself.
so if you restore as new, then there is no app data on your phone, you start out new...

I have a Canon 6D and the new Panasonic GH4 both are not in the list of supported cameras! What can I do?

I have a Canon 6D and the new Panasonic GH4 both are not in the supported list of cameras in Finalcut Pro 10 ! What can I do???

Plenty of cameras don't make the list for various reasons but work fine,
If you have the cameras but not the application, downliad the trial version and see how it goes.
If you have both the cameras and the app already, do some test projects to see.

List users of specific databases that are not using the default storage quotas

I have an Exchange 2010 SP3 DAG with 4 databases. I am trying to use powershell to find out, per database, which mailboxes are
not using the "mailbox database defaults", which is unlimited in this case (no quotas for Issue warning, Prohibit send, and Prohibit send and receive).
Something like "get-mailbox | where {$_.UseDatabaseQuotaDefaults -ne $true} will not work because I just want the data for specific databases".
I have also tried "get-mailbox -database nameofdatabase | where {$_.UseDatabaseQuotaDefaults -ne $true} | out-file c:\temp\nameofdatabase.tx" but it lists some users that show unlimited for all categories and others some that have limits on certain
other ones. In short, it is not correct.
HDL

Hi,
From your description, I would like to clarify the following thing:
Running the Get-Mailbox -Database MBX1 | Where-Object {$_.usedatabasequotadefaults -eq $false} cmdlet will list all mailboxes who have a custom storage quota. But it only displays the value of ProhibitSendQuota. You can check the values of other storage
quotas via EMC.
EMC -> Recipient Configuration -> Mailbox -> double click the mailbox -> Mailbox Settings -> Storage Quotas
Hope my clarification can be helpful to you.

When i create a new photo album photos are not in the good sequence

when i create a new photo album photos are not in the good sequence

Add the photos from your disc to iPhoto, then drag them from the iPhoto Event or photos to the Album.
You can delete photos from the Album without removing them from the computer. If you delete them in the Photos or Events area, they are removed from iPhoto, therefore taking them out of the Album.
The photos have to be in iPhoto to exist in an Album. They cannot exist in an Album and not be in iPhoto..
Hope that helps...

I restarted my mac and many apps and files disappeared. It's like it booted to a state several months ago. My CS 5 apps are not in the dock or applications folder. Has this ever happened before and what can I do?

It's like it booted to a state it was in several months ago. My CS 5 apps are not in the dock or applications folder. Has this ever happened before and what can I do?
The files on my desktop are not the ones that were there when I shut down. It's like it's gone back in time.
My display's power supply got fried (I think) in a power outage so I bought a new one. However, every time I restart the display usually stays black. I have found I need to keep rebooting until it kicks in and starts working. I unplug everything, wait a while (a few minutes to overnight) and try booting again.
This last time the display finally came on but I'm faced with this problem. I used to use time machine, but I deleted everything and disabled it a couple months ago or more so I'm at aloss as to why the mac is booting into the state it was in sevearl months ago.
What could I have done to cause this? Has this ever happened to anyone else and is there a solution?
Note: I did a search for a file I knew was created today. I found it and it showed that it was a file I had saved on the desktop this morning--even though that file's icon is not appearing on the desktop now.
I did a search for photoshop and saw my CS5 version listed.
However, I did a couple more searches and these files no longer appear in the search. I don't know if they're there or not. This is bizarre!
I'm on a Mac Pro, 10.6.2.

Thanks for the obvious question. I mean it. The very same thought came to me this morning and, sure enough, I had booted into another drive--my old one that, of course, had the old desktop, etc.
It didn't dawn on me that this was the case since I hadn't set it as a boot drive but I guess in the course of all the restarts I did, it got switched.
I'm back to normal again.

When I try to import .olm files from my external hard drive back up, where do they go? It says on different forums they go to the "on my computer" folder but they are not there

When I try to import .olm files from my external hard drive back up, where do they go? It says on different forums they go to the "on my computer" folder but they are not there.
I go through all the instructions but then my emails do not appear. I'm starting to panic a bit!

You might want to try asking on the MS Office Outlook forum - http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macoutlook - since those are Outlook files.
Also note which method you're using to create a backup.

Lightroom 4 - My Nik filters are not in the Edit version of Elements when I want to edit with cmd+E.

Lightroom 4 - My Nik filters are not in the Edit version of Elements when I want to edit a picture from the Lightroom Bibliotheque with cmd+E, because Ligthtroom use a back up copy of Ellements 11 that is on an extern back up drive (i don't understand how that is possible). My Nik filters are not on that drive but well on my Mac's Hard Disc.
How can I tell to Lightroom to use the Mac's Hard Disc version that is in the Dock ?

Of course my Nik filters are why the Dock version of my Mac.
The question is that I don't know why, Lightroom when I want to edit a picture in Elements (cmd+e), Lightroom start un security copy of Elements that I have put on my extern hard disk and that copy is without the Nik filters.
So how can I tell to Lightroom NOT to use the version of Element that is on extern hard disk but the original version on the hard disk of my Mac in the map Applications ?

The Informatica maps are not taking the parameters from dac

Hi All,
The Informatica maps are not taking the parameters from dac. We have tried setting the parameters at DAC level, task level. The parameter file is getting generated by DAC and has correct values as we expect. But when we run a full load from DAC, the initial date in Informatica is being taken as 1/1/1753. Do we need to specify the parameter file name at workflow level?
Is there any setting that we are missing. Please guide us and let us know the steps we should take to make sure that the parameters that we set at DAC level get passed to the Informatica maps. Also mention this is happening only with dates and other parameters like data source num , soruce and target database information is getting passed to Informatica maps.
The version of Informatica as 7.4.1 and dac version AN 328, Build date Aug 8 2007.
Please Help me in this issue.
Thanks in advance for all members.

Hi Ananth.v
Try to make sure that your parameter file's path in Infa is in-sync with the path of DAC files being generated.
The date you are getting seems strange - which are your Source/Target DB platforms?
In general take a look at [this thread| http://forums.oracle.com/forums/message.jspa?messageID=3405906#3405906] , it may make some thing clearer for you.
Hope it helps,
Please post if you found a solution,
