Preferences are not holding in IDCS3

if you quit out of IDCS3 the preferences are not holding.
tried resetting ctrl+opt+com+shft & replacing ID prefs but they will not hold after repeining the program?
any sugestions?

Sounds as if maybe the installation was damaged in the crash. If it were my system, I'd get the CS5 clean tool (Adobe - Adobe CS5 Clean Script), which can also clean earlier versions,and follow the directions for uninstalling, cleaning and reinstalling.
Are you running Windows or Mac?

Have you tried resetting your device by pressing and holding the Home button and power button until the silver apple appears?

Keep getting message pop up "Error reading/writing file "com.apple.logic.pro.cs": Logical end-of-file reached during read operation," and "The Preferences are not loaded completely. Save them to "com.apple.logic.pro.cs" anyway?" Using Logic pro 8. ???

Logic froze while I was working on something so I forced quit. Now every time I open LOGIC a message pops up that says:
"Error reading/writing file
“com.apple.logic.pro.cs”:
Logical end-of-file reached during read operation."
The only button option is cancel so I press it and another message appears that says:
"The Preferences are not loaded completely.
Do not save them, as you would overwrite the Preferences file with incomplete data."
Then when i close logic a box appears saying:
"The Preferences are not loaded completely.
Save them to "com.apple.logic.pro.cs" anyway?"
There are 3 button options to press; ok, cancel or dont save.
I press "don’t save" cuz I don't want to ruin anything.
I found a discussion located here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/9564253#9564253 that says if I delete the file "com.apple.logic.pro.cs" it will resolve the problem. If I do this will I loose or mess anything up at all, automation, saved channel strips customizations, saved effects, synth, or ultrabeat customizations etc? Or especially will I loose any work I've done? I have hundreds pieces of music files I've created. I'm scared to mess anything up with all the hours and months of work I've done. Is there anyway to fix this without loosing anything? I'm using Logic Pro 8.
Thank you

You can safely delete this file - its the preference file for control surface settings - you haven't said whether you're actually using a control surface or not, if so, you will have to set it up again. A new file will be created when you fire Logic up again, but of course it will contain default settings. If you have a complicated control surface setup, remember to keep a backup copy somewhere in case any future problems arise.
Other than that, you really have nothing to be scared about - hopefully your problem is as simple as that and there isn't an underlying problem (a corrupt hard drive, for example). You seem concerned about losing work, so I guess you want to think about backing that up on a regular basis too. If you're saving your projects to your system drive, do get an external one for this. And also check that you have plent of free space on your system drive - you need to keep about a quarter or third of it free for your OS and programs to run properly (some temporarily stored files can be quite large).

Preference are not saved when leaving Photoshop elements 10

Hi,
Each time I leave photoshop elements 10 (bought on Apple Store), A windows says that I don't have the required rights and my preference are not saved. Each time I restart the program it is re-installing the effect as if it's a new install.
Any change done in preference window is not taken into consideration.
I understood that this is because Photoshop is trying to save on root directory, which is not possible as protected.
Anyone has a solution as it makes it almost unusable :-( How can I change the right or tell photoshop to save the preference file somewhere else?
I use Mountain Lion.
Thanks

I do not need to install when I get from Apple Store. When I start for first time after downloading, photoshop starts first by creating content and effect window. After that the program works normally.
Except when I want to quit, another window open telling me that I don't have the users rights to save my preference.
If I restart again Photoshop it restart from scratch and tries to re-install content and effects, which should only done once.
My problem is that I bought the version 10 in february this year and I was not aware that a new version was coming, so I don't want toinvest another 69 Euros....I would at least have my version 10 working properly.

Preferences are not saved properly

A while back, I was doing something "complicated", with several programs open at the same time, and GarageBand crashed. Nothing unusual.
But since then, every time I open GB, two error messages come up: The first one says: "Error reading/writing file "com.apple.garageband.cs":" and lets you click "cancel". The second one says: "The preferences are not loaded completely. Do not save them, as you would overwrite the Preferences file with incomplete data." and lets you click "OK".
Then, when I want to quit GB, it doesn't simply shut down like usual, or that is to say, it shuts down, but then the message that says that the program has unexpectedly quit and do you want to send an error repport comes up. But then GB apparently still hasn't shut down entirely, and I have to force quit it in order to quit it completely. Because, I suppose, the program is trying to save the Preferences file, in vain, because something (but what?) is prohibiting it from doing so.
I don't really know what all this means. As far as I can see I haven't actually lost any work because of this yet (but then I haven't searched that deeply), but I would sure like to make sure that doesn't happen.
Does anybody have any clue what's wrong here and what I can do to fix it?
All the best

Hey Willy,
Sorry, that was the first thing that came to my mind.
Maybe if you restart and login to that account try those settings you want to do and restart again to see if that works ( it's what i do when i use windows ).
Might or might not work. Just a thought.
cheers..

Toolbar reset / preferences are not saved

Preferences are not being saved and the Firefox Updated tab shows every time. I updated to 5.0 a while ago, but have just recently started having this problem. I cannot think of any programs I have recently installed.
I updated all my plugins, but currently have everything disabled.
I do not have a Prefs.js or User.js file in my profile folder (and I made sure to show all hidden files). I am not sure if that might be causing the issue.
I have followed all the steps on the following support pages, cleared all history and restarted the computer.

*https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Toolbar%20keeps%20resetting?s=toolbar+reset&as=s
'''--EDIT--'''
I did recently get Comcast and had to install the stupid desktop tools to activate the modem. I uninstalled their software, but I may have started having the problem around that time.

Playback preferences are not working with 10.5. solution?

I downloaded iTunes 10.5 and my playback preferences are not working. For example, crossfade is screwy. Sometimes it will fade out at the end of a song, but the next song will not come in until the end, or the next song will come in WAY too early. Sound enhancement is also doing nothing. These all worked fine before the update. Has anyone else encountered this?

I too am having problems with crossfade since installing iTunes 10.5 where mostly it is just fading the end of the song.. when set to a 6 second crossfade it is just fading the last 20 seconds and still waiting till the song ends before starting the new song & i've also noted that sometimes a new song will begin when there is in excess of 20 seconds left of the previous song remianing.. hence, it sounds rediculous. i've tried uninstalling & re-installing but no fix. please help anyone..

ICloud preferenties are not activated on my ipad

ICloud preferenties are not activated on my iPad. I always get à Message to check my email but i already did it several times but it doesn t work.

Sounds like you need to verify the account by responding to the verification email from Apple. Make sure you are checking the email address you used to set up your iCloud account. Check the spam/junk folder as well as the inbox. If it isn't there, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under your Primary Email Address to resend the verification email.

How to fix "OS X Lion user's custom preferences are not retained after reboots"?

How to quickly fix "many of user's custom preferences from within OS X Lion 10.7.x and/or MtLion 10.8.x are not retained after Mac reboots and/or log-offs"?

If many of the user’s custom preferences from within OS X Lion 10.7.x and/or Mountain Lion 10.8.x are not retained on Mac after reboots and/or log-offs, then implement this following QUICK FIX procedure:
Login to user’s OS X login profile… access & select the Finder pull-down menu Go… next select Library (just user’s Library only available when holding-down the Option key here within OS X Lion + MtLion)… find-select-and move the Preferences folder out from the overall user’s Library to the user’s Desktop area for temporary safe keeping. Then log-off user and/or reboot Mac… log-in as user, and reset all user’s custom preferences (System Preferences, Dock icons, etc. [OS X system now recreating all user’s login profile preferences]) according to their previous Desktop setup. Finally reboot after making all new user preferences setting changes… log-in again as user, and check to ensure that all user custom preferences now stays retained. If all OK, then you may move the corrupted Preferences folder from the user’s Desktop area to the Trash for final deletion.
*NOTE: Is this above-written QUICK FIX completely acceptable to Apple's OS X Lion + MtLion troubleshooting standards? So far this solution appears to have fixed a recent iMac user's issues with custom preferences.

After some problems with Mail, I've been forced to delete container files and enveloppe index file, all is better except that now mail doesn't saved preferences anymore..
Also, the windows positions are not saved as well...
Last information: ON my preferences folder, I got only com.apple.mail-shared.plist file, but no com.apple.mail.plist file... Doesn't now if it's normal or not..
Thanks for your help

But should I see a com.apple.mail.plist file ?
No, not in Yosemite.
Problems such as yours are sometimes caused by files that should belong to you but are locked or have wrong permissions. This procedure will check for such files. It makes no changes and therefore is not, in itself, a solution.
First, empty the Trash, if possible.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
find ~ $TMPDIR.. $ -flags +sappnd,schg,uappnd,uchg -o ! -user $UID -o ! -perm -600 $ 2>&- | wc -l | pbcopy
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run.
Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear.
The output of the command will be a number. It's automatically copied to the Clipboard. Please paste it into a reply.
The Terminal window doesn't show the output. Please don't copy anything from there.

Safari preferences are not saving in Maverick.

Hi! My Safari preferences (homepage, open new tab with, remove history items, etc.) are not being saved. Whenever I close out of the app and restart, it reverts back to the default settings.
Can you provide any insight?
Thanks!

Specific preferences are not saving

Cookie Settings Are Not Being Saved.
Since around the 22nd of August 2014 my cookie settings are not being saved; after a browser restart a 'do not accept cookies' setting is always changed to 'Accept cookies from sites' and 'Accept third-parties cookies: Never'. This is the only preference setting that is not being saved, and prior to the 22nd of August 2014 (or thereabouts) my cookie settings were being saved.
Around this date I selected an option in the program Spybot-SD 2.4 ( http://www.safer-networking.org/mirrors/ ) for 'Third party cookies to never be allowed', this may be what's changing my settings, but maybe it's something else. There is no option in Spybot to reverse the selection.
I contacted Spybot but several suggestions and changes on my system later the issue remains, and Spybot has given up.
I do not have any of the programs installed that are known to force Firefox to use certain settings, as listed at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-to-fix-preferences-wont-save .
Thus far I have:
- on URL about:config , changed the network.cookie.cookieBehavior value to 2,
- deleted all the lines in the user.js file,
- uninstalled Spybot completely,
but none of these actions have resolved the issue.
I do not wish to Reset or Reinstall Firefox unless this is the last option. Please advise whether there is another option to fix this issue.

Thank you cor-el, your suggestions solved the problem. Following the instructions at:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-extensions-themes-to-fix-problems?redirectlocale=en-US&redirectslug=Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
I found that a faulty extension was the culprit, after removing it my cookie settings were being saved again. After restarting Firefox and reinstalling the same extension the cookie settings are still being saved.

Java folding preferences are not saved

Hello all,
I have recently installed the latest version (11.1.1.2.0) of Oracle Jdeveloper and it seems that I'm not able to save my preferences for java folding. Every time I restart jdev, the default preferences seem to be restored. This doesn't seem to happen for other preferences like code templates.
Any ideas? Where are these preferences saved? Is there any file I could verify?
Thanks.
wf
P.S. I've also noticed that some of my old preferences were not migrated (e.g. code templates) but maybe this is for another topic.

Sorry on the typo, yes.
Maybe you can try deleting your system directory (OK, don't delete it, just rename it so you can restore after testing), don't migrate prefs and see if the problem reproduces. If it doesn't reproduce, then you'd have a perfect test case to show that migrating prefs breaks something.

Hi. Try updating your machine first and see to it that all firmwares are install. After that try reseting the SMC. Here's the link. Hope this helps.

IMac preferences are not being saved, also in Mail.

I had to restore some files from my time capsule that I mistakenly delete. The files were restored but after the restore My desktop changed. Many of my dock icons were gone, and several applications were not working. It looked like some of the applications went back to earlier versions, including Safari, Firefox, and Mail. My mobile me account is also inactive. My Quicken data was also lost. I tried to restore my Quicken file from time machine, but there was no data. I had a backup of My Quicken data on iDisk, and it restored ok, but when I logged out of Quicken and retarted it later the data was lost again. I did a disk check on the Time capsule and found out it was corrupted. I did a repair disk on it and now it seems to be OK.
When I try to restore my preferences in iTunes, Mail, Mobile me, Safari etc. nothing gets saved. I have to re-enter them every time i launch them.
Mobile Me Mail is also not working. I tried to activate my Mobile Me account again but Apple is not supporting it anymore.
I would appreciate any help I can get on this.

Since replies to questions and comments in these Discussions
is mostly from users who are registered to post & reply here,
you may find better result in a call into AppleCare support and
if there is an incident or case number involved in the issue you
have experienced with corrective actions taken so far in your
communications with Tech Support(?) by phone, be certain a
reference is made to that conversation, for proper follow-ups.
+{You could refer someone you talk to there, to your post in here.}+
There may be some other issue, perhaps relating to hardware
or something else, that may bear looking into. Have you seen
a result of the system log files and reports, such as Console
generates from the computer in action? There may be a clue
in those almost cryptic reports. Also, you have a hardware test
on bootable partition in the original system install disc; that's a
specific test version for your computer, an Apple Hardware Test.
Boot instructions are on the disc's label. Run it in a repeat-loop.
Is there any third-party software installed later on, which could
result in complications or conflicts with the Mac's Mail app?
The problem, if not software, could be hardware. Or a logic error.
If you have AppleCare coverage in effect on the computer, that
is the call to make; and keep track of your incident/case number.
Good luck & happy computing!
