Profile preferences reset to "Read Only" after turning it off.

I cannot start Firefox. It says it is already running. Task Manager does not show any instances running. There is no "parent.lock" file in the "......default" folder. Each time I look at the preferences for the "profile" folder, it shows "read only" is set. I clear it and the next time I look at the preferences "read only" is set.
I have uninstalled and re-installed Firefox but it still resets"read only". Looks like the profile folder has something corrupt in it.

Only a check mark in the Read-only box means that a folder or file is Read-only. 
Windows doesn't check all the files in a folder so instead displays a green block to indicate that it is not sure. 
You always need to look at the files individually. 
Easiest to do that is to make the Attributes visible in "View > Details" mode: Choose Details in Windows Explorer.
A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

Make a field required on record creation, read only after that

Hello,
Does anyone know of a way to make a pick-list field required on record creation, but read-only after that? The other twist to this is that we need to allow this field to also be read-write for all the integration edits, since this field's value could change in the enterprise database.
Thanks,
Neal G.

Hi !
I think you can add a validation rule for that. Something like :
IIf(PRE('<YOURFIELD>') IS NULL, <> '', = PRE('<YOURFIELD>'))
This means that if the previous value of your field is null (it's a creation), so the value must be different than blank. Else, it must be equal to the previous value, so not modified.
I didn't tested it, but I let you get back to me if it works... or not !
You'll just have to add a message saying that this field is required on creation and readonly after...
Hope this will help, feel free to ask more !

Word 2010 document becomes Read-Only after saving it

Hi,
My Word 2010 document is becoming "Read Only" after saving it, for information my doucment is on the desktop . I searched on this forum and find a couple of solutions (deactivating auto saving, etc.) but it does not work at all. Any other ideas?
Thanks,
Sylvain.

, I wonder why the docuemnt is becoming Read-Only when I am saving it on the Desktop...
I've read articles and blogs of people arguing each side of whether you should use the Desktop as a storage folder and I really
don't have anything substantial to add to either the pro or con side of the issue.
However, what I know about Word is that it behaves a bit different and seems to have issues when you’re actively editing document that are stored
on the Desktop. I would speculate that the issue has something to do with the screen driver software.
When you’re editing a document, Word is actually using something like a dozen or more temporary hidden files and some of these are stored in the
same folder as the source document. If the source document’s folder is the Desktop, then there has to be interaction with the screen driver.
This interaction with the screen driver is one variable that makes the Desktop folder unique and possibly problematic and thus Word under certain conditions
makes the file Read Only.

How to make fields read only after form is filled in

I am creating forms to be used within our company. The customer srv representative (CSR) would fill in the form and send it to the customer for signature and initial. There are a few issues I can't solve.
1) I need to make the rate & services fields read only after the CSR initials the form

Will the CSR have Acrobat or just Reader, and what type of computer will the CSR be using (Windows/Mac/mobile OS)? If just Reader (Wind/Mac), this is possible by setting the fields to read-only with JavaScript. The problem is this can't be considered secure, even if using a password as discussed here: Password-protect and hide one form field
With Acrobat you have the ability to flatten certain fields, which makes it a bit more difficult to change the "fields".

Changing a Record to Read-Only after an event.

I have a Developer application that needs to be modified. This
application includes several fields as well as a comments
field. I'd like to change all updatable fields (not to included
the comments field) to READ-ONLY after a certain event. Then
after a certain date, I'd like to make the comments field READ-
ONLY.
Do you have any suggestions?

Dear Regina,
Have you tried to set_block_property in pre-record trigger to update allowed/not allowed depending on the event. And in post-record update not allowed. These triggers must be on block level. Also on item level to the item 'Comment' define pre-item trigger where take a new decision whether you want to open the entire block or not, the same way as on block level triggers. But in post-item trigger always make the entire block read-only again.

Make all text fields read only after signing form

Hello,
I have a live cycle form which needs to have all of the text fields set as read only after signing.
The java script has been placed in the post sign event of a digital signature field.
for(var i=0;i<this.numFields;i++) {
var cNm = this.getNthFieldName(i);
if (cNm.type = "text") this.getField(cNm).readonly = true;
After signing the form the following console error is shown:
this.getNthFieldName is not a function
Can anyone please advise how to revise the script so that when the form is signed all of the text fields become ready only?
Any assistance will be most appreciated.
Thank you.

You don't need any JavaScript to do this.
In Designer you can setup the signature field in that way, that all fields will be locked after signing.

2630 keeps discharging after turning bluetooth off

On regular use (i.e. without using bluetooth), I can use my Nokia2630 for several days without recharging. Sometimes I use a bluetooth headset connected for about an hour and then disconnect the headset and turn bluetooth off. The bluetooth indicator disappears, but the battery keeps on discharging and is empty after less than 12 hours.
If I turn bluetooth off and turn the phone off and back on again, there is no problem.
Summarized, after turning bluetooth off, the phone keeps using a lot of battery power.
Is this a techical failure, firmware issue, ...
Suggestions pleas?

I think might the bluetooth manager did not shutdown properly. and so judging from that, the battery depleted very fast but the battery indicator might not detect it as quick as it should. It happens all the time. Even my phone does.

A day ago, my phone was freaking out, saying all these apps had stopped working, so I turned off and immediately after turning it off the dual core screen with the red M came up and wont turn back on-

I've been sent a scan of a document as an attachment. Clicking on it, I get the message, "Pixel aspect ration correction is for preview purposes only. Turn it off for maximum image quality." What is pixel aspect ration and how do I turn it off?

I've been sent a scan of a document as an attachment. Clicking on it, I get the message, "Pixel aspect ration correction is for preview purposes only. Turn it off for maximum image quality." What is pixel aspect ration and how do I turn it off?

It's "aspect ratio", not aspect "ration".
It's what determines whether you have square pixels ("normal") or, if rectangular pixels, what the aspect ratio (width : length) of that rectangle is.
It's explained in the Help files. I cannot go into more detail because you have neglected to provide information about your platform and exact version of Photoshop.

USB Stick unrecognized/read only after Gparted

Hi
I partitioned a brand new USB thumb drive with Gparted and then installed Fedora LiveOS on it. This was just a test as I really wanted to use Larch to get Arch on the stick. So I tried to repartitioned it again. But Gaparted now complains that the stick is read only and so does not change anything.
I then moved to fdisk. fdisk will allow me to look at the partitions and will even change them. But after using Fdisk to repartition and then running mkfs.whatever-i-want the partitions can not be mounted. Even dd exits with a read only drive error.
Fdisk can manipulate the partitions but it complains that DOS mode is not supported and asks me to give the c and u commands. Despite this the drive is not recognised when I plug it into the computer.
After using fdisk on the drive several times, gparted now claims that there is no valid partition table on the drive and so shows only unallocated space. But it still won't write any partition info to the device, claiming its read only!
I'm stumped! Anybody have a clue how to get around this?
emk

dd fails with an input/output error after writing 17MB. This is an 8GB stick. Fdisk shows no partitions. But is unable to write to the drive after I create partitions. Here is the output.
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb

I don't have any ext4 partitions on it. THere should only be vfat. My initial partitions were ext3 and vfat. I then switched the ext3 to ext2 after the problems begun and finally just went with a big vfat. I initially used gparted on the drive so as to label the partitions. I really feel that gparted may be the culprit here but I have no proof. This is a brand new stick that had not been written to before.
And from gparted:

Read only attributes turned on by Windows 10

Two days after installing Windows 10, all of my data files are suddenly read only. I cannot save any files. I went to setting, turned the read only attribute box off, and the system seemed to be turning them all of. At least it ran through the entire data directory file by file. When I went to open a file in my word processor, it came up as read only, and of course I could no longer save the file junder anyu name. A check of the attribute box in settings showed that read only had been turned on. This makes the entire system useless and puts me out of business. Fortunately I still have my old XP netbook so I can continue working, albeit at a much slower pace.

By default, OU1 is mapped to directory attribute "ou". It's not modifiable via calendar. You could use the other OUs attribute (OU2-OU4) for this purpose.
