Settings doesn't stick

All of the sudden my admin account is reset every time I log out and back in again...
The Dock is set to default, e-mailaccount info is gone, etc etc
It may have happened when I tried to install a Canon MP600R printer with no success.
Does anyone know a solution?
I tried to create a new account and that worked so it's definitely tied to one account.
Regards,
Micke K

Sorry this is not helpful, I just thought I would reply because I have the same problem.

  • Edit Contact Folder settings doesn't stick

    I have a z10 connected to exchange 2013 through activesync.  Randomly my "edit contact folder settings" selections gets reset to all contact folders.  I also notice when this happens that my contacts are all gone, and I have to disable/re-enable contacts sycn to get them back.  This is happening on almost all blackberry's on our system.  We recently migrated from groupwise to exchange...  So this is a fresh install of exchange, and perhaps we are missing a setting somewhere? 
    We have also removed all contact folder except the "blackberry" folder we want synced, and it also randomly wipes contacts on phone. 
    Has anyone else ran into this?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    It turns out it is a bug..  They will be fixing this issue in a future release.  They are to make a artice KB36964 that will be available to the public soon. 
    What worked for me is to completely disable the contact sync, and then re-enable it.  The issue did come back though...
    We also noticed that during these sync issues the PIM service would eat up the battery, and drainign it within a couple hours.
    Hope this helps someone

  • MAX settings do not stick

    Hi - I'm trying to use FTDI drivers to simulate a COM port from an USB connection. Most WinXP SP2 or 3 machines have no problem, but I have one machine where having run MAX to ensure correct port operation, on quit and relaunch MAX shows a port conflict. This can be cleared with the available controls, but recurs the next time MAX is started. The settings do not stick. The subsystem (a TTi QL355TP power supply) does not see the communication either on this machine, and is OK on the others.
    Environment: LV 8.2.1, MAX 4.1 or 4.2.1 . Would prefer not to upgrade LV to more recent version at this stage. LV 8.2.1 re-installed.
    Any help or nudges much appreciated.

    Thanks for reply. I can't obtain a screenshot at the moment, but the MAX display is a standard diagnostic I've seen on other occasions. Select a COM port in 'Configuration', and the "Port Settings' tab at the bottom has 'Conflict' added. The screen area above shows two columns of 'Settings', one from MS Windows, the other from MAX. These columns disagree in (for example) speed or flow control. Pressing 'Validate' aligns the two, 'conflict' disappears, 'Save' at top of screen appears to save correctly, and everything's fine. Except that the application this setting relies on still has a communication problem, and if you restart MAX the screen display resets to how I described above!
    Re-install or repair of NI software does not fix it, nor does re-install of USB drivers. A corrupt data file on this machine would fit the observed evidence - are you able to point me to all the files that MAX may write? A corrupt MS Windows Registry entry might do it also, I guess. Do you know of any tools for checking or fixing such problems? The problem was triggered by a clumsy cleanup of installed NI software that was aborted partway through. The system is installed with a customer making a clean install of everything difficult and we are right at the point of having to write an unattractive workaround that uses a lower level serial interface to allow us to use NI Spy to eke out the required functionality.
    Any help appreciated.

  • Address Book Distribution List Settings Don't Stick

    Is there a bug in Address Book for distribution lists? When I attempt to edit an address book distribution by changing the default email, the setting does not stick. I can select a bold any address for a contact with multiple addresses, but then when I go back in and look at the distribution list, it goes back to the previous email and not the one I selected.

    I was having a very similar problem.  For some individuals, I could change the preferred e-mail address in edit distribution list, but not for others.  After some messing around, I discovered that the only people whose settings didn't stick were those whose first e-mail listed in the Edit Distribution List sheet was a facebook.com e-mail.  If they had a Facebook e-mail that wasn't first in the list, I could change them.
    The order of e-mail addresses in the Edit Distribution list and the individual cards wasn't the same. e.g. I couldn't reset my husband's e-mail address because in Edit Distribution, his facebook.com address was listed first.  But it was listed last on his actual card.
    I fixed things by going to System Preferences, Mail Contacts & Calendars, locating my Facebook account in the list, and unchecking "contacts."   The facebook.com addresses disappeared in contacts, and the changes I made in Edit Distribution list stuck.

  • New member: My Settings won't stick; I don't know how to create a signature

    My Settings won't stick; I don't know how to create a signature
    How can I correct these two difficulties please?

    Sorry, not clear. I meant "My Settings" (top right hand corner of FCE Discussions window), not in FCE itself. The time zone setting is accepted but the next time I look it has reverted to USA GMT-8 hours, and some other settings are similarly affected
    and by "signature" I meant some text that always appears at the bottom of Discussions messages, saying somethink like "Mac Pro 2.0 GHz, FCE 3.5" etc. I can't see a place to specify that.
    (But now I see something has appeared!)
    Thanks.

  • International Date Format Doesn't "Stick"

    I have tried to set the international date and time format to "medium" for both the Dates and Times sections, but no matter what I do the change doesn't stick. Upon restart, the setting has reverted to "short". What can I do to get the "medium" setting to stay?

    Hi Jason -
    Not sure if this will work but try deleting the presets that are present, then select 'medium' then add the numerical bits that you want into the empty space by dragging them over. Don't forget to hit OK. After this try logging out to see if it stuck or not.

  • Capture Noise Print doesn't stick

    I had to reinstall Audition CC to restore broken Dynamic Linking with Premiere. Now, whenever I capture a Noise Print then open the Noise Reduction process, it hasn't retained the profile. I have to capture from within the NR process in order to get a print. Simple enough to do but was wondering if anyone else was experiencing this.

    I've also had it happen before and, like you, assumed it was me so I didn't report it.
    Today I was being fairly careful because I was going to write a "did you do xxx" reply to the OP--and my first try didn't retain the noise print where my second one on the same recording did.
    One thing I noticed was that the graphic display appeared to give noise print details but they's wouldn't move when I adjusted the sliders.
    Possibly an intermittant bug?  Certainly one to keep an eye on.
    Edited to add an update:
    Playing with the NR and noise print, it appears that the first time after opening Audition, if you use "Capture Noise Print" (Cntrl P) from the main "twirl down" it doesn't stick.  Subsequent uses of the facility are fine but, once you've closed Audition and re-opened it, you get another "blank".  I suspect the reason I've not noticed this properly before is that I quickly learned there are fewer clicks to simply go into NR and grab the noise print from there rather than get one "on the way in" as it were.
    Anyhow, that's what's happening on my machine.

  • Click Pad Settings don't stick

    I'm using an HP Envy 15 Notebook with Windows 10.  Currently using HP Control Zone v 19.0.1.12.95. Since the upgrade to 10, my clickpad settings (Settings > Devices > Mouse & touchpad > Additional Mouse Options > ClickPad Settings) don't stick after a reboot.  The default 2-finger scrolling seems to be Aussie scrolling, and Pinch Zoom and Rotating default to selected.  If I deselect them and reboot, the settings return to their default.  Is this a Synaptics issue that they need to fix (and that I need to fix each time I reboot until they do), or is there an older driver set I could use? Feel free to move this to the correct board if I chose incorrectly. Thanks!

    Hi I have the exact same problem with HP Pavillion and windows 10. Keep turning the pinch zoom setting off and when I restart it defailts back to on again.

  • Display brightness setting doesn't stick on power cycle

    The display brightness setting doesn't seem to stick during power cycles on my new 13" i7, it almost always sets itself to full brightness when I turn it on. This isn't really a huge deal but it is kind of a nuisance as I typically keep it around half, why should I be turning it back down every time I boot up???.
    I have un-checked the box through settings for adjusting brightness based on ambient light, and made sure it is in fact staying un-checked.
    I have also reset PRAM a few times now which seems to provide a temporary fix only. After a day or two it's back to square one again.
    Any ideas, or is this a bug that there's currently no fix for?

    Hi, I have recently bought GE60-0ND notebook with Win8 preinstalled which I got rid of in a second I got home, reinstalled with my licensed Win7. Half of things didn't work so I flashed the correct firmware. From that point on everything works perfectly, only brightness control is broken. I simply cannot control my monitor's brightness with my special keys nor in power control setup. So I googled.. and some smart guy recommended a bios flash as well. But when I try, it says either "Problem getting flash information" or "Problem getting bios information".
    Any thoughts how to get the brightness control work?
    Thanks for any kind of advice 
    Did you switch the BIOS and the EC Firmware to the Windows 7 counterparts?
    You may want to ask Svet about that error.

  • [SOLVED] NVIDIA X Settings won't "stick"

    I've got kind of a weird problem that I've been looking for a solution to but I haven't yet been able to find any.
    I'm running Warcraft III through Wine on a widescreen monitor. Those that have played know it doesn't support widescreen resolutions (apparently for "balancing reasons") and to make it look the best I'd like to use aspect ratio scaling so that it just chops the left and right edges off of the screen so that it will display in 4:3.
    I set that option in the NVIDIA utility, and it works until the X server is restarted. If I try to launch Warcraft III after restarting X, it will take up the whole screen and look stretched out and ugly.
    Apparently, though, just starting the configuration utility is enough to reapply the settings. The screen flickers, and the utility comes up. Then if I boot Warcraft, everything works as I would expect. The flickering that occurs when the configuration program boots up also only happens once until X is restarted.
    Is there something I'm missing? I'd like to think that NV was smart enough to apply the settings to X on boot, but that doesn't appear to be the case. Has anybody encountered this problem before and, if so, have there been any elegant soluions?

    As you've noticed, nvidia-settings apply when you ask them to, which is when you run the program.  Where's it supposed to stick the settings "on boot?"  In your gnome session manager? KDE? .xinitrc?  Makes quite a bit more sense to leave it be and let us decide.
    That said, they could be a bit more forthcoming about what to put in any of the above if you want the settings to take effect.
    nvidia-settings -l
    That's an L for 'load settings from config file and don't start the gtk interface'
    An interesting note is that, since this loads everything from the config file, you can't actually save overclocking settings this way.  This is because they won't save from the gtk interface, unlike everything else.
    Overclocking example:
    nvidia-settings -a GPUOverclockingState=1 -a GPU3DClockFreqs=495,1113
    Stick an extra -l in there to do both.

  • IOS 5.1 / iPhone 4s - 3G toggle doesn't stick / turns itself back on after reboot.

    I wonder if anyone else has experienced this bug on the 4s with iOS 5.1 ?
    I have:
    Cellula Data > OFF
    Enable 3G > OFF
    After a device reboot I notice the battery is draining fast and I check in cellular data settings and sure enough 3G has turned itself back on.
    I have reported this using Apple Feedback but wanted to see if anyone else has uncovered this bug / can reproduce it. I can reproduce it after each and every reboot.

    I can confirm this behaviour is initiated by the network operator and not the phone. If your phone goes off and then comes on it negotiates with the network and the network then chooses to put your phone into 3G mode.
    For now it's just a matter of remembering each time you have rebooted or reset your device to immediately go and switch 3G off. It would be nice though if Apple could make the user choice stick but it seems this part is actually out of their control due to the way the networks behave.
    Some days when I leave the house I enable cellular data and of course turn 3G off, then I spend the whole day driving around and it stays on Edge the whole day. Other days it doesn't stay on Edge and I notice halfway through the day that 3G has turned itself on again so this is definitely being turned back on by the network operator.
    Just another note: If your 3G is turned off but you see your battery is draining fast for no reason, turn 3G On, wait a few seconds and then turn it Off again. I don't know why but somehow even though it shows off it sometimes seems to not actually be properly off.

  • Problem with JPGs Downlaoded with Nikon Transfer - Can't Apply Develop Settings in Bridge CS4 and ACR 5.3 Settings Don't Stick

    I have found what I believe is a "problem" with JPGs downloaded using Nikon Transfer (ver 1.4.1) and processing same in Adobe Bridge CS4 (Develop Settings) and/or Adobe Camera Raw 5.3 (Photoshop CS4 and Elements 6 as hosts).
    Anyone using these programs in their workflow?
    The problem, quite simply, is that neither ACR settings (nor Bridge CS4 Develop Settings) "stick" when applied to JPGs that have been downloaded via Nikon Transfer ver 1.4.1.
    The same images from the same cameras (D300 and D90), downloaded moments later using Nikon's predecessor software PictureProject work just fine in both Bridge and ACR.  Develop Settings appled in Bridge immediately are seen, and JPGs opened in ACR, and settings applied, then "Done" immediately stick and are reflected in Bridge.
    If someone else is processing their JPGs in this manner, please let me know, as I have reported the problem to both Nikon and Adobe, and although I have tested it on two different cameras and two differnt laptops, I would like to get an impartial result as well.
    One other test, the problem does not seem to affect Nikon's RAW (NEF) format files downloaded from a D2x using Nikon Transfer.  More/different test are forthcoming.
    Thanks

    Can't say one way or another on that statement about using manufacturers' software.  Since Adobe has to interpret each camera models' RAW format having the latest ACR seems to be the best option.  But if the manufacturers' software is more convenient, and you get the same results then use it.  But it does appear you are not getting what you want, so suggest you try a duplicate test run with images straight from the card reader to Bridge and see if you still have same problems.
    I do know it is widely recommended that using a quality card reader gives you more reliable data than getting the pictures straight from the camera.  Does not seem intuitive, but that has been experience of many.

  • Links will not open in the background. Toggling the option in "settings" doesn't do anything.

    When I change the setting to "open links in background" it doesn't do so. I still have to hold down on the link. I've tried clearing cookies and history, changing my cookies settings, restarting the phone, turning off private browsing, but it still won't work.

    Hi Aish,
    Thanks for the quick reply.
    I had a feeling you would ask me those questions so I'll give you a bit more background of what I am doing.
    I have created a locally accessed web app as part of project I am working on at Universty. It is a mockup of an iPad app that I will eventually build, although it is fully functional in it's web app state. For this reason it is not hosted on any web server but instead transferred to the iPad via DiskAid and accessed from Mercury Browser.
    Mercury browser is the only browser that I have found that can display html files from within it's own file storage and make it look like it is being served from a server. Safari browser will not let you do this and the only other browser that I found that could do it has been discontinued (Terra Browser).
    Adobe Muse has been fantastic for doing this kind of work and as I said before, the internal links opened in a new tab with Mercury Browser previously, so I am not really sure what is going on.
    Any ideas would be appreciated.
    Cheers
    Garry

  • SMTP password doesn't stick

    I am having problem setting password for the outgoing smtp server in the mail settings. Every time I enter a password it shows up in the Password field ok but when I get out and come back in again, the Password field will show "Optional" and the password I just entered disappeared. What did I do wrong?

    You didnt do anything wrong. I've found the iPhone a little temperamental sometimes when it comes to mail accounts. I would suggest deleting the account, resetting the phone (hold down the sleep and home buttons for 8 seconds until you see the Apple logo), and after it resets, recreate the account on the iPhone. Let us know if the passwords stick this time.

  • Notification Settings don't stick

    I'm running Yosemite (10.10)
    I have 3 Macs and this happens on all 3.  (mid 2011 Macbook Air 13", Late 2013 iMac 27", 2013 Macbook Air Retina 15")
    I go into Notification settings and then click on Messages.  I change the Messages alert style from Banners to Alerts (because I like it to stay on the screen when someone messages me).  Then a few hours or so later it changes back to Banners on it's own.
    Anyone know what's going on?

    Here are the instructions I got from AppleCare from an Apple Engineer. I'm not sure if the fix was specifically for my machine or if it'll work for someone else. Follow at your own risk.
    1. Open the Library folder in your Home folder.
    2. In the Library folder, open the Application Support folder.
    3. Locate the folder named NotificationCenter. Drag this folder to the desktop.
    4. Next, open the Terminal application.
      Copy and paste each line of these commands into the Terminal window, in order. Press return after each line:
    cd `getconf DARWIN_USER_DIR`
    rm -rf com.apple.notificationcenter
    killall usernoted; killall NotificationCenter
    5. Close the Terminal app.
    6. Restart your computer.
    The notification preference changes won't stick until you restart a 2nd time after this.
