Problem with parameters to fix opening of old tabs and saving files when a new session is open

Hello,
Since 2 weeks I have a problem: I always fix my parameters to restore previous session with all my tabs and I choose that Firefox asks me where I want to save my downloaded files. Now each time I close Firefox and I reopen it, it is not taken into account, and 3 tabs are opened: Firefox, Google and Thank to install Zotero! I rechange it, but every time it opens these tabs and not my old tabs. The same for saving files. It goes back automatically to open start page and to save my file in Downloads. Even if I rechange, it comes back the same.
I desinstalled CCleaner (I thought it could be that) but nothing changes!
Please help. Thank you very much!
Martha

Here's what I would try:
*Reset Firefox - this should fix the issue but it will change settings like where files are downloaded and what tabs open at startup back to their defaults.
*Then change your download and session restore preferences back to how you like them.
Here's how:
#Go to Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
#Open the options window - Tools > Options > General
#In the General panel set Firefox to open your tabs from last time and set Firefox to ask you where to save downloads.
#Click OK
That should do it. Let me know if this worked.
Thanks,<br>

  • Problem with Read-only user being able to add and delete files and folders.

    The setup:
    Computer #1
    iMac (intel) running 10.5.5
    File sharing ON
    Sharing folder on external USB drive called 'iTunes' (but not the drive volume itself)
    Users:
    - Everyone = Read Only
    - Admin(me) = Read/write
    - UserA = Read Only (with account PW and username identical to local login for computer below)
    Computer #2
    UserA's iBook G4 running 10.4.11
    When I go to finder>network>iMac>connect it prompts me to login which I do and then select 'iTunes' folder which is visible and mounts successfully. I can see all files, access them all. Life seems great. Then I discover that I can also modify and delete files from the iBook, and create and delete directories.
    I'm new to networking and although I've setup and managed minimal networking tasks on PCs before, this is my first foray into the Mac networking world. Please help.
    What am I doing wrong? What haven't I set?
    Thanks in advance.

    Sorry, I should have clarified this in the first email.
    When I login from the iBook, I am logging in under a read-only user (not as myself, who is admin on the iMac). The user on the iBook has only been given read-only permissions on the iMac yet is able to add and delete files.
    This read-only login/PW however, is the admin account on the iBook, but that shouldn't allow this person to write on the iMac so far as I understand things...right?

  • HT204266 Anyone else having problem with updates?  My apps won't update and can't download any new apps.

    My phone won't update the apps or let me download any new ones. Been going on for few days now.

    Many developers are releasing updates today because tomorrow Apple is shutting down iTunes Connect (the developer backend to iTunes) for the holidays. This could be affecting things, but I doubt it.
    You can try resetting your iPhone by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears. Try again to see if the problem persists.

  • This Mac can't connect to iCloud because of a problem with my email address Open iCloud preferences to fix this problem"

    I keep getting this message over and over and over.
    This Mac can't connect to iCloud because of a problem with <my email address>
    Open iCloud preferences to fix this problem"
    I go to IC Preferences but there is nothing I can fix there that is relative.
    My outbox is no longer working in MAIL so I cannot email out. I have to use my wife's MBP to send emails.
    I can get emails. I didn't change anything in m,ail preferences, so what is Apple doing to me?

    I also have had this problem and see no resolution - signed out of my account and signed in again, did not get any resolution to the problem. done this twice. Is Apple addressing this? I thought that 10.10.1 would resolve this but found to my dismay that there has been no resolution. Each time I log out of iCloud and then sign in again, there is a time lag before all my files in iCloud become accessible so have stopped trying this remedy. I also have issues with iTunes where am asked for my password 4 times before I can log in. Would like to know if there is anything in the pipeline to remedy/rectify this problem. Issues with bad internet connectivity have improved but are still there. Wish Apple would spend some more time in testing and resolving issues before releasing new software. 

  • This Mac can't connect to iCloud because of a problem with "your Apple ID", Open iCloud preferences to fix this problem.

    I am using Yosemite on (iMac 21.5 inch mid 2011).
    My question is:- Periodically when closing down Safari and only the application Safari i get the message:-
    This Mac can’t connect to iCloud because of a problem with “my Apple ID”, Open iCloud preferences to fix this problem.
    I don't understand this because there is no problem with "my Apple ID" and if there is what should I do when opening iCloud preferences to fix the problem.
    Would appreciate some positive answer to stop this message from appearing and to resolve this problem.
    Cheers Bruce.

    I do not use the Safari browser, and I also get this error message. I also have not updated to Yosemite.  I am able to log into iCloud using my Apple ID and password, so I know that there is no issue with my login credentials.  However, so far I have not been able to determine what is causing this message.

  • I had problem with my apps,they open for a while and closes with in seconds i cant acess them

    i had problem with my apps,they open for a while and closes with in seconds i cant acess them and i had this with all apss,expect apple apps

    Do you have a lot of apps? Did you use a lot of apps recently? If so, many of them may still be resident in memory even if you aren't currently using them. Double-tap the home key and you should see the app tray with a list of most recently used programs. Press and hold the icons in the tray and remove the ones you don't use often to remove them from memory. Powering off and then back on might also help.
    My wife's iPod does that sometimes, and it's usually because we run out of memory due to apps remaining in memory even when not used. The suggestion above is how we normally fix the problems.

  • When I connect my nano to my computer I receive the following message: There is a problem with this drive. Scan the drive now and fix it. My computer recognizes the ipod but the play lists saved in my itunes library are not the playlists that are on my na

    When I connect my nano to my computer I receive the following message: There is a problem with this drive. Scan the drive now and fix it.
    In addition, when I connect my nano, my computer does recognize but the library and playlists in my Itunes is not the same as the library/playlists on my ipod (on this ipod). If I purchase new songs from itunes, they go to the library on the computer but I cant get them to the ipod playlist.

  • Problem occurring when opening and saving files in AI SC5 with Windows 7

    Hi, I ‘am a Graphic Designer and first time working in UAE Windows 7 is basically the only OS here. My PC is:
    HP Elite 7000
    Intel® Core™ i5 CPU 2.67GHz
    4GB RAM
    32-bit
    Now to the problem, not that knowledgeable in IT stuff so here goes:
    1. Problem occurring when opening and saving files in AI SC5 with Windows 7. (You will actually see a “Not Responding” word coming out while opening and saving files, whether small or large files)
    2. Locked layers occasionally are moved accidentally.(Working on multiple layers is normal so we need to lock it specially the once on top. But there are times I still manage to select locked layers)
    3. After typing and locking the text, pressing “V” for the arrow key shortcut is still added to the text that is locked. (After typing I lock the text layer with my mouse and Press “V” to activate the arrow key… yes the arrow key is activated but the text is still typing the actual keyboard pressed)
    I’ve only use the brand new PC and installer for a month now. Not sure if this is compatibility issues or something else I’m not aware of.
    Thanks in advance to people that will reply.
    Cheers!!!

    Well I’m still wondering if it is compatibility issues because I’m also having problem with Photoshop CS5. These 3 are all bought at the same time (PC, Illustrator and Photoshop installers). The problem I’m having in Photoshop is not that too important, every time I Ctrl+O to view files, all PSD are shown in white paper like icons, no preview, and saving as well.
    Or I just purchased a corrupted or pirated installers… Adobe updates are done every time I’m prompted.

  • Sync Problem - "There is a problem with this drive. Scan the drive now and fix it".

    Have new desktop computer with Windows 8.When I connect my iPod to my computer to sync, I get the message – “There is a problem with this drive. Scan the drive now and fix it”. It is identifying the drive on the iPod as the problem. iPod works fine on my laptop computer and older desktop (both with Windows Vista). iTunes seems to momentarily recognize my iPod then it doesn't.  Any thoughts about a fix?

    bump, I have same issue. thanks, MM

  • I have a problem with my ipad. I can make online documentation before but when I updated my iOS, I can't longer make notes. How can I fix this problem?

    I have a problem with my ipad. Before I can make online documentation but when I updated my iOS, I can no longer make notes. How can I fix this?

    What does "online documentation" mean exactly?  Are you using the Notes app to try to create notes in iCloud, for example?
    If so, that should still work in iOS 7.1.
    If not, please tell us specific symptoms of what is (or is not) happening.

  • Problem with Win 7 x64, WWAN or WiFi card and Windows XP Mode

    I have a T500 with switchable graphics (2056-4RU) with a clean install of Windows 7 Pro x64 with the AT&T WWAN card.
    With all the Win7 RTM drivers and Access Connections for Win7, I had a problem that the WWAN card (Ericson F3507g, purchased from Lenovo and working flawlessly under Vista 32-bit) would not initialize. Support told me to uninstall the Win 7 versions of the Power Manager Drivers, WWAN card driver and Access Connections and replace them with the Vista counterparts, which restored the functionality of my WWAN card. Based on the speed with which the support tech came up with the suggested fix, I suspect I am not the only one with the disappearing WWAN card problem.
    Now I have found that starting the Windows XP Mode virtual machine kills the WiFi functionality (Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN) until I disable and re-enable the WiFi adapter in Device Manager and then restart the system. (I have not problems with XP Mode and with the Win7 drivers / Access Connections opening Windows XP Mode did not cause the problem with the WiFi.) Opening Windows XP Mode causes no problem with the wired network adapter on my system). 
    Thus it appears that I can have functionality of the WWAN and WiFi adapters with XP Mode using the Released Win 7 versions and functionality of Windows XP Mode together OR I can have WWAN but not WiFi functionality with XP Mode using the Vista drivers that support suggested. However, it seems that I cannot have WWAN, WiFi and XP Mode concurrently.
    I reproduced the above XP mode / WWAN problem / WiFi problems on a T500 with Win7 x64 owned by another family member.
    Does anyone (particularly anyone from Lenovo) have fix for this?
    Thanks.

    for the sim card, try this:
    http://jack.ukleja.com/update-ericsson-f3507g-mobile-broadband-on-windows-7-with-lenovo-thinkpad/com...
    I have another operator and I finally gave up. apparently it's also no that easy to install the SIM card, if the plastic thing that helps to remove the SIM card  is not the right position, it will overlap the SIM Card chip.
    can't help for the WIFI. I had the problems too with access connection and decided to remove it. I use Seven's network manager, which does an equally good job.
    Since I have the switch to turn off the wireless, I don't really need access connection anyway.
    Finally, something that I learns while struggling with the bluetooth driver: the order in which power manager, access connection and the different drivers are installed DOES affect their effectiveness. I forgot the details but I remember 2 things:
    always read the TXT file that is available on the driver page on the lenovo web site and install power manager and access connection last.
    Good luck

  • Problems with Apex4.2, SkillBuilders Modal Page plugin, IE9 and HTML5 theme

    Hello everyone.
    Please Help.
    Again problems with Apex4.2, SkillBuilders Modal Page plugin, IE9 and HTML5 theme (Blue Respensive).
    1. The problem is that all the popup windows display 100% of the width
    2. After opens a popup window change the width of the parent window forms.
    This happens only in IE9 browser.
    In other browsers, the popup window only much larger than the form that is opened.
    I can not change the size of the window.
    Thanks.

    Milk,
    I changed the component level settings to use a fixed height and width (I adjusted edit, you still need to adjust create). You can try adjusting this some because the modal page should adjust a bit.
    Then I added this CSS to the Inline CSS of the modal page:
    section.uMessageRegion{position: static; !important;}
    Let me know how this works for you.
    Regards,

  • Problem with Edit IN function between LR 2.3 and PS CS3

    I recently upgraded my system to a Windows Vista 64 bit Core 2 Quad with 8 GB.  Lightroom now works and loads images the way it should. I do have one major concern and need any help possible.
    I am using LR 2.3 in 64 bit and PS CS3 ver 10.0.1 (which is 32 bit - loads slowly but otherwise works fine).  The problem I am encountering is in LR Develop / Photo / Edit In...  - using any of the menu items:
    "Edit in Abode Photoshop CS3"
    "Open as Smart Object In Photoshop"
    "Merge to Panorama in Photoshop"
    "Merge to HDR in Photoshop"
    "Open as layers in Photoshop"
    Photoshop opens but no image(s) are exported and I receive the message in LR - "The file could not be edited because Adobe Photoshop CS3 could not be launched."
    Photoshop, however, was launched but no image exported and so I can't work on the image in PS.  The appropriate TIFF image is created in LR for the first two menu items - nothing for the last three menu items.
    I can create a partial work around by setting PS as an external editor, however, I can't use 4 of 5 of the menu items.
    All the menu items work fine in Windows XPpro.
    Any help is much appreciated.
    PS I also tried the most recent Window 7 RC with exactly the same results.
    Thanks

    I wasn't shouting - I just cut and paste the exact text and font in its original size and type as was shown in the message.  Never had a thought that someone would be offended by cutting and pasting exactly what was in a message - it would appear that John Williams saw it for what it was.
    However, sorry if I offended you.

  • Help. Photoshop CC14 on Mac 5k (2014) running Yosemite 10.10.1. Photoshop stops responding when I'm opening files, saving files or creating new ones. Is anyone suffering the same problem? Does anyone have an answer?

    Help. Photoshop CC14 on Mac 5k (2014) running Yosemite 10.10.1. Photoshop stops responding when I'm opening files, saving files or creating new ones. Is anyone suffering the same problem? Does anyone have an answer?

    First, go install the MacOS 10.10 updates - you should be on 10.10.2.
    I haven't heard of Photoshop not responding during opens and saves.  Does it stop responding while the open/save dialogs are visible, or while Photoshop is actually reading or writing files?
    10.10.1 did fix a crash in the open/save dialogs, but 10.10.2 still has some odd issues (mostly program errors coming from the OS code) in the open/save dialogs.
