Websites say cookies are blocked. I tried everthing in the help topic about his and nothing worked

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling firefox, clearing cache, everything. I don't know what else I can do. a few different sites say I have to enable cookies, but they are already enabled. This is a SERIOUS and URGENT problem. Please get back to me ASAP.

Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
* Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
* Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
If clearing the cookies doesn't help then it is possible that the file <i>cookies.sqlite</i> that stores the cookies is corrupted.
Rename (or delete) <b>cookies.sqlite</b> (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete <b>cookies.sqlite-journal</b> and <b>cookies.txt</b>, if they exist, in the Firefox Profile Folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.

  • I have an ipad mini that won't power on. It was turned off to charge overnight. In the morning it was warm and now won't turn on no matter what I do. I've tried resetting using the power / home button combination and nothing works.

    If you have owned the device, as in purchased from Apple, less than a year then there will be no charge to repair, or most likely, replace the device. If you have had the device more than a year you will be charged an out of warranty cost for replacement ($219 I think) and that is much cheaper than a new device. If you have Applecare+ then you have an additional year of coverage and the replacement will be $49 or $79 depending on when you got the Applecare.

    Check on the setting, as far s i know it was there by going on tools>options> privacy then check it out. If there was no changes, what i can suggest is try to update your firefox.

  • Some sites say cookies are blocked and I can't use some features on those sites. But I check each time and cookies are not blocked.

    Sites say I can't set preferences or post on message boards, etc. because cookies are blocked. I know how to set cookies. They are NOT blocked.

    Did you check the cookie permissions for the current domain in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions" after you have opened that page?
    If the setting in Firefox is correct then check your security software (firewall) to make sure that cookies aren't blocked there.

  • Help I my iMessage is offline and I can't seem to figure out how to reactivate it.  It shut itself off on it's own and I've tried everything under the sun to reactivate it and nothing is working.

    My imessge status is offline and I have tried everything to reactivate it and nothing works.  I don't know what to do.. I am not very tech savy and new to Mac so I am not certain if there is something going on behind the scenes that I can do to address this.  I have an ipad and phone and my instant messaging works fine on them but not on my Mac Pro.
    Help! PLEASE and THANKS

  • HT1766 I try restoring backup on my iphone, and it wont let me until I enter a password. I dont remember ever setting a password up, and Ive tried every password I would ever have used, and nothing works.  Any advice?

    I try restoring backup on my iphone, and it won't let me until I enter a password.  I don't ever remember setting up a password, however I tried every password I would have done, and it still doesn't work.  I even tried unistalling itunes and re-installing it, and that didn't work either. Any suggestions?

    Encrypted backups are very secure.
    Try every possible password you can think of. Try simply leaving the field blank also.
    iTunes: About iOS backups
    Warning: If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and then forget your password, you will not be able to restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable. If you forget the password, you can continue to back up and use the device, however you will not be able to restore the encrypted backup to any device without the password. You do not need to enter the password for your backup each time you back up or sync.

  • HT1338 I INSTALLED OSX MOUNTAIN LION. NOW I CANT OPEN MY IPHOTO.  I HAVE TRIED ALL THE WAYS TO REPAIR IT AND NOTHING WORKS.

    MY NEW OSX MOUNTAIN LION WORKED FOR TWO DAYS , NOW IPHOTO WILL NOT OPEN .  IT KEEPS TELLING ME HOW TO FIX IT
    BY RESTARTING. I HAVE FOLLOWED ALL THE INSTRUCTIONS AND CAN NOT OPEN IPHOTO IT JUST KEEPS LOADING.  THEN NOTHING SHOWS UP NO PHOTOS.  PLEASE ADVISE IF THIS IS A COMMON THING ?

    Did you check if you have sufficient RAM.   Though Apple says 2GB, 4GB is much better as you need to take into account what other usage your RAM is put to.
    Otherwise, agree with Barry; it does seem excessive.   If you restart, it will either show as 'paused' or be absent from your purchase list.  If paused, check out ...

    Checked the cookies settings.
    Cleared the history for the site.
    Cleared all cookies and the cache.
    Site still says cookies are not enabled.

    That link is the one I used as described in my original post, but thanks for the effort.

  • I have tried several ways to delete the cookies listed in options and nothing works to get rid of them.

    I have tried all of the methods to delete the cookies that are suggested on your support site. I have tried them if the selection in Options is for cookies allowed and with cookies not allowed. Also with 3rd party cookies allowed and not allowed. Normally, I have it set at cookies allowed but 3rd party cookies not allowed.
    I have tried CCleaner, Euslings Cleaner, Auglogics Cleaner, Wise Cleaner, SuperAntiSpyware, Spybot, and WinPatrol, plus deleting the temp files in Windows. All that software cleans out cookies. I also have Spyblaster set to protect against hundreds of tracking cookies. It was SuperAntiSpyware that brought the problem to my attention in the first place. It just started doing it approximately a few weeks ago but only the passed several days have I been working hard to get those cookies deleted. There must be a couple hundred of them. I did manage to delete about 5 or 6 of them but the others won't budge. I want to clean them all at and start from scratch and monitor them on a daily basis. I don't want most of them. SuperAntiSpyware claims it deletes them but when I go to Options in the browser they are still there. SuperAntiSpyware claims the cookies are there every time I run the program before shutting down the computer.
    I just added that Troubleshooter and looked at information. I'm sorry but I'm not understanding anything. I'm not that computer savvy.

    You may have installed an extension that adds so called opt-out cookies to Firefox.<br />
    Such opt-out cookies are send instead of the normal cookies and you can't remove such opt-out cookies unless you disable or uninstall the extension.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

  • I am trying to INSTALL the free trials of AI and PS when I click on the link to install it goes to another page says installing but nothing is happening. I have the FREE TRIAL Creative Cloud Membership.

    I am trying to INSTALL the free trials of AI and PS when I click on the link to install it goes to another page says installing but nothing is happening. I have the FREE TRIAL Creative Cloud Membership.
    I am getting very frustrated with this. When I try to install the Creative Cloud thing it asks me to pay even though it says try for free.

    Hi Mirrormonolith,
    Please try the following steps assuming its a MAC:
    1) Open Activity monitor and Force quit Adobe CEF Helper, Creative cloud, Adobe IPC Broker & Crash Deamon if available.
    2) Try to open, if doesn't work then go to Applications>> Adobe Creative cloud>> Right click>> Get Info>> Click on the Add sign>> Select the user you are logged in>> Give Read and write access.
    3) If that doesn't work then enable the root user and launch to update there, check this link on how to enable/sign in to root user Enabling and using the "root" user in Mac OS X
    Please let me know of that worked.

  • My lap top wont import pictures from auto play. it keeps saying there is a file error and a device connected to the computer isnt working properly. i have tried going into the internal storage to copy and paste the pictures but this wont work either.

    my pictures from my i phone 4s wont import from auto play. a message keeps coming up saying there is an error and a device is not working properly. also i have tried going into the internal storage to copy and paste them but that wont work either. the page either stops responding or the picture simply dont copy. does any1 have any idea why this is happening. it has never happened before and only seems to be happening since i started using i cloud storage instead of synching my phone with the lap top.

    I have decided to dedicate this thread to the wonderful errors of Lion OSX. Each time I find a huge problem with Lion I will make note of it here.
    Today I discovered a new treasure of doggie poop in Lion. No Save As......
    I repeat. No Save As. In text editor I couldn't save the file with a new extension. I finally accomplished this oh so majorly difficult task (because we all know how difficult it should be to save a file with a new extension) by pressing duplicate and then saving a copy of the file with a new extension. Yet then I had to delete the first copy and send it to trash. And of course then I have to secure empty trash because if I have to do this the rest of my mac's life I will be taking up a quarter of percentage of space with duplicate files. So this is the real reason they got rid of Save As: so that it would garble up some extra GB on the ole hard disk.
    So about 20 minutes of my time were wasted while doing my homework and studying for an exam because I had to look up "how to save a file with a new extension in  mac Lion" and then wasted time sitting here and ranting on this forum until someone over at Apple wakes up from their OSX-coma.
    are you freaking kidding me Apple? I mean REALLY?!!!! who the heck designed this?!!! I want to know. I want his or her name and I want to sit down with them and have a long chat. and then I'd probably splash cold water on their face to wake them up.
    I am starting to believe that Apple is Satan.
