Taskbar does not stay locked after restart

Hi,
I have been having this issue for a while now. I have a dual monitor setup, and I move my taskbar the the 2nd screen and lock it in place. However after every startup/reboot it defaults back to my 1st monitor. The same issue occurs when I un-tick the "Touch
Keyboard" option, it just resets after startup. Any help :(?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Third party application could cause this issue, in my environment, I can lock all taskbars, and it would stay on the personal defined position after a restart:
So I would suggest you uninstall this application and re-check it.

Firefox 11.0 Personas are not staying enabled after restart of FF11

After updating Firefox 10.0.2 to FF 11.0, both of my PC's personas that I have will not stay enabled after restarting FF 11.0. I have tried different personas on each PC and they also will not stay enabled after a restart of the browser. FYI, I am still using the same extensions that I had used in FF 10.0.2 and there all up to date in FF 11.0, it's just this persona issue that bug me big time.
I've tried all the Knowledge Base help suggestions, but none have worked.
Any one else having this issue? Any on have a fix that worked?
Help!

The installed personas and the currently selected persona is saved as a pref in the prefs.js file in the Firefox Profile Folder, so there may be a problem with that file.

WiFi does not stay connected after latest upgrade

I am having an issue with the WiFi connection on my Iphone 4 after the latest 4.3 upgrade.
It does not stay connected to the wifi. I have to go and manually connect to it.
Then after a couple of seconds it loses it again.
Why is this

"I'm not sure why yours is doing it but I would suggest your reboot your router and reset the iPhone network settings.
If you are hiding your SSID, do the last step which is tap Settings > WiFi > Other and completely re-enter your network name, security, and network password."
Been there, done that... Did ALL these steps, but that does not fix the problem... AFTER inputting the SSID manually, selecting security, and then the password, iPhone STILL says it cannot connect...

Lock does not stay locked in Network...why?

Hello. I noticed something about the lock in one of my System Preferences that has me a bit bothered, given I bought my Apple because of its promised security features. I should say I am totally new to the Apple world.
Whenever I restart the computer, or log out and then log back in, and I go immediately to System Preferences>Network, the lock is unlocked, regardless of the fact that I locked it previously. I thought the lock could only be unlocked if I specifically went to the lock and tried to unlock it (and after I put in the prompted password). How can I make this lock stay locked? I am using dial-up if that makes some sort of difference (no choice other than spending a fortune on a dish).
Any help appreciated.

I looded a toolbar but it does not show up after restarting firefox

I loaded Zinga Toolbar 2.7.1.3 and it shows up in add-ons but it does not load on my page. I am running Firefox 3.6.12 with windows 7, 64 bit
and Microsoft Security Essentials

Delete the files extensions.* (extensions.rdf, extensions.cache, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox [[Profiles|profile folder]] to reset the extensions registry. New files will be created when required.
See "Corrupt extension files": http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
If you see disabled extensions that are not compatible on the next start in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the "Find Updates" button to do a compatibility check
You may also need to "Reset all user preferences to Firefox defaults" on the [[Safe mode]] start window.

Bookmarks get changed randomly / Bookmarks Bar does not stay showing after reboot

This is a brand new installation of FireFox 17.0.1 download directly from Mozilla. The previous installation was completely removed using Revo in an attempt to find the cause of this problem.
I have my bookmarks saved to a .json file so after full installation of FireFox, I rebooted the computer, came back into FireFox, enabled the Bookmarks Bar and imported my Bookmarks. Looks good so far. Then I shut it down and rebooted the computer. The bookmarks are gone, the FireFox size is back to default, and the Bookmarks bar is no longer showing.
In my previous installation, sometimes the bookmarks were there, sometimes they weren't. But even when they were, the actual URL that the bookmark was supposed to go to had been changed to some site that was opened at some point during the previous session (but not bookmarked).
The same types of problem do not occur in Opera, Safari, Chrome, or IE so I don't believe it is anything interfering with the saving of customizations.
Anyone have any ideas?

Bookmarks shouldn't have been changing by themselves. Your places database (which stores history and bookmarks together) might have been corrupted. Your new installation should not have that problem, at least not right out of the box.
Sometimes Windows permissions, files in use, or other factors can cause Firefox to lose changes or start up incorrectly. This article might help: [[How to fix preferences that won't save]].
Are you just running the standard release of Firefox directly on Windows? In other words, I assume:
* It's not the "Portable" edition of Firefox.
* You are not using sandboxing or virtualization software that isolates Firefox from the system.

Top Sites page does not stay open after clicking New Tabs

I used to be able to click on “Open a new tab” and the “my top sites” would be available on that page. Now when I click on “Open a new tab”, “my top site” appears and disappears immediately; each and every time. However, if I open 2 new tabs and then go back and click on the 1st tab then the 2nd tab, “my top sites” are available. Also can I get my top sites as my home page?

There is this pref: browser.tabs.loadBookmarksInBackground
But it doesn't have effect if you open links via the Library, it only works when opened via the browser window (menu, toolbar, sidebar).

System Prefs "LOCK" will NOT STAY LOCKED... stuff changes... Help, please?

I have been using OS X since it first was introduced, and have noticed this behavior in all of the versions that I have run, up until and including 10.4.10, now. It was not too much of a concern to me until now, and I would like to resolve this once and for all if possible.
PROBLEM:
System preferences does not stay locked after I lock it. Internet sharing keeps turning itself OFF, after I start the service, and then LOCK system preferences. I go back and check later, and SYS PREFS is unlocked. Sometimes internet sharing is still on, sometimes it is off. Some other times I will go back and check after locking, and it will still be locked, but internet sharing now OFF!!! After a re-start, it is the same as described above. Sometimes OK, sometimes not. I leave the mac on most of the time and rarely turn it off.
I use the mac as a gateway for two other PCs, in my small network. My wife is the only other human user on the network, with her wireless laptop. I use the other PC (it's mostly off the majority of the time) and the "gateway" Mac OS X 10.4.10. If my wife wants to use her PC and I am not at home when the phenomenon occurs, she does not have internet access, as she is a computer novice and does not use the Mac at ALL.
When I have noticed the occurrence in the past, it is annoying, but I just check and the turn things on and re-lock what the "gremlins" have been playing with. Now In addition to wanting to keep my wife happy, and surfing when she wants, I would really like the system to operate the way it is supposed to.
Has anyone else been experiencing this sort of thing over the years of OS X and found a (hopefully) simple solution?
Thanks in advance.....

..."I am at a loss for what to do as in reality this might really be a security issue."...
It might be, but it may not...
I suspect the fact that "Internet Sharing" stops running has nothing to do with "System Preferences" being unlocked - pref panes are apparently unlocked automatically by default when a user logs in to an "admin" account, especially after a reboot:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.4/en/mh1790.html
Most people recommend not using an "admin" account as their main account for security reasons so demoting the account to "standard" might be one option, but otherwise, the "Require password"... option can be selected as described in the "Help" note.
As for the other aspect of the problem, I have never used "Internet Sharing" so I can't comment on what might be causing it to crash (if that is in fact what is happening). It might help to see if anything turns up in the logs...

Full Screen Does Not Come Back After Minimizing Firefox to the Taskbar.

Full Screen Does Not Come Back After Minimizing Firefox to the Taskbar.
I work in full screen almost exclusively ... the toolbar and the URL are still displayed while in full screen.
Before this version (30.0), when I minimized Firefox to the taskbar so that I could go to the desktop or to Windows Explorer, when I finished what I was doing and re-selected Firefox it would go back to full screen. Now, it does not go back to full screen. I can still see the taskbar. I have to press [f11] two more times to get back to full screen.
I have tried with and without addons enabled. Same behavior. I have reset Firefox ... same behavior.
I'm using Firefox 30.0 and Windows 7 (64 bit).
Thanks.

Hi moose53,
Just tested it with a Logitech keyboard and you are right, what you are describing is not expected behavior. I see you do not have any add ons, however does this also reproduce in Safe Mode? [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]]
If yes, try a new profile [[Use the Profile Manager to create and remove Firefox profiles]]

Extensions can sometimes be the cause of problems. If the problem does not occur in Safe Mode, then you can disable your extensions one-by-one until you find out which one is causing the problem. See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]

My iPad 3 will not stay locked

My husband and I purchased the "New" iPad (3) when they came out March of 2012. Just recently I have noticed that mine will not stay locked if I hit the top button, but will instead turn right back on. The screen is set to lock automatically after 2 minutes however when it unlocks itself the screen will not shut off but stay on until I shut it off again. This does not occur all the time but is becoming more frequent. I've been unable to download the latest IOS update and sometimes it will randomly shut itself down and turn it back on during the middle of me reading a book or surfing the web. Please help! Is there something I am doing wrong or can do myself? Or am I better off taking it to an apple store?
Thank you in advance!

Try to reset your device:
Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.
After doing the above, make some changes to the length of time before auto-lock engages...change it to never, then test, change it to another setting, the test again, change it back to 2 minutes and test again.
Also test your power (sleep/wake) button. It almost sounds like it's overly sensitive and may be triggering itself on/off it's own. Press it lightly and see how the device reacts...does trigger with just a light touch? It should only be triggering when it's "clicked". If it reacts in a random way by barely touching it, it may be a defective switch.
Just some things for you to try...

Iphone voice memos does not stay open

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.
