What does the HSTS.plist file in the Cookies folder in /Library ?

What does the HSTS.plist file in the Cookies folder in /Library ?
If I open it in TextEdit it is filled with sites I never have visited.
Does anybody know where this file is used for ?
Thanks

I also have this file in the same folder in the same location with two other 'documents' called:
1. com.apple.appstore.cookies
2. Cookies.binarycookies
Document type shows as 'OOPlistDocumentType'.
Yes lots of website addresses and at least one known spam tel number. The top line of the text when opened by TexEdit is as follows:
bplist00“   ∑_ )com.apple.CFNetwork.defaultStorageSession_ !hstsd Disk Storage Schema Versionfl ±    
This is a bit of a worry ........

    Hello there, gleab.
    The following Knowledge Base article reviews the ways to import content into iTunes:
    Adding music and other content to iTunes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1473
    Also keep in mind which formats can be added:
    You can add audio files that are in AAC, MP3, WAV, AIFF, Apple Lossless, or Audible.com (.aa) format. If you have unprotected WMA content, iTunes for Windows can convert these files to one of these formats.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • Lightroom 3 does NOT support raw files for the  Canon Sureshot S95

    Have just bought the new Canon Sureshot S95
    after contacting Adobe support I am told Lightroom 3 does NOT support raw files for the
    Canon Sureshot S95.
    Come on Adobe.....please provide an update asap.

    (1) Well Boss I did what you said and used Canon DPP to convert to TIFFs. Choices are 8-bit TIFF or 16-bit TIFF - I chose 16-bit because part (90% part) of the reason for wanting to work in RAW is to keep the bit depth of teh original. On my EOS 40D it is supposedly 14 bits, which gives great scope to play with the levels & curves without seeing poster effects. If I choose 16 bit TIFF then each S95 image becomes a 70MB file, parallel to my JPEG and RAW.  Hardly a satisfactory solution.
    (I realise, however, that I don't actually know the bit depth of the S95 RAW file - anybody? ). 
    (2) SUGGESTION-  even if you are adding S95 support to the next update (which I dearly hope), be kinder to those with new cameras in general and allow LR to import JPEGs if it cannot import the RAWs (overriding if necessary the 'ignore JPEG' preference setting).  I am sure users with that preference would still prefer a JPEG than no picture at all!
    Since I discovered this compatibility problem, I switched the camera to record RAW+JPEG*. To my great irritation LR3 ignores the JPEGs even though it cannot load the RAWs.  So if I want to import from one supported camera (EOS40D) and one unsupported camera (S95) I have to keep going into preferences to switch on and off the 'ignore JPEG' function.
    JJ
    *  (this seems to be a setting that needs doing in the various different modes of the camera, by the way).

  • Where are the iTunes plist files

    I changed to Lion.  Because the OS I started from had corrupt files I opted to partition and create a clean instal.  Because of the corruption on the old system I do not want to use file migration.  The only two things I need to move are my .plist files for iTunes and iPhoto, which I can find on the old system but not on Lion. 
    I unlocked the hidden files but I can't find the library or the prefernce folder in which to place the old .plist files.  Where is it?  Does anyone know?

    The Library is Hidden in Lion.  Finder Menubar/Hold the Option key/Go/Library
    Files will be in ~/Library/Preferences

    When my wife tries to update one of her apps a strange Apple ID pops up. Her Apple ID is correct in settings and in the apple store. What does this mean? Where did the other one come from?

    There is something on your iPhone (a music file, iBook, document or video) that belongs to another Apple ID.  Only your wife would know how that file arrived there.  Your iPhone is asking for the correct Apple ID for all of the files that are resident on the iPhone.

  • How do you edit the raw.plist file in 10.5.7? Old tricks no longer working.

    I have a Canon PowerShot S50 that I has the samw RAW profile as the Canon PowerShot S60.
    I've successfully added it to the raw.plist file and updated the CodeResources file with a new key via terminal, and now aperture displays the thumbnail, and very briefly the larger 'image' in my second monitor, but then within a second it reverts to 'unsupported file type'.
    Has anyone found a solution to this?
    Someone seems to have found a fix on this forum for a different camera, but I'm still struggling (and I've tried renaming the camera name with and without space/underscores, etc)
    (Why Apple hasn't added some of these cameras by now is beyond me - that such simple additions haven't been made is totally inexplicable.)
    Thanks for any help!

  • If a buddy's screename is faded (in the offline section), but a video icon is still next to the screename, and if you right click on the name "video chat" is an option, what does this mean? it is the only one on my whole list that has this.

    Hi,
    It could be some sort of "flagging" issue where either the AIM Servers have gone out of sync and you are getting two lots of info  (There are about three or four servers involved with getting data to your Buddy list)
    I can also see the possibility where you have a Contact in your Address Book who has two Screen Names.
    You have one in one group and in another they appear to be Off Line.  However iChat will still Link them and Show their Capabilities when you Right Click.
    One way of checking this is to double click them to open a Text Chat Window.
    At the top is the Recipients Bar  (See View Menu when  Text Chat is Open).
    This gives you the option to chose a different Buddy Name if the contact has two  (It offers To and From options if you both have Multiple Accounts).
    Pic of an Old Chat to someone with Multiple "Names"
    They have an @Mac.com name and  Jabber ID  (As it is an Old Chat the Jabber one is Off Line and their @mac.com name is currently "Away"
    You can see I have a Google and three AIM Logins I could use to Speak to them.

    It is just part of the XML specification; to do a "doctype", you must have an open angle bracket followed by an exclamation point. See [doctype decl | http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/#NT-doctypedecl] for more information.

  • What does this mean "We apologize for the inconvenience, but the ability to order books and prints is no longer supported in iPhoto 5. Please upgrade to a newer version of iPhoto to order these products.

    what does this mean "We apologize for the inconvenience, but the ability to order books and prints is no longer supported in iPhoto 5. Please upgrade to a newer version of iPhoto to order these products." I want to buy a photo book and that message keeps popping up.

    TD, LN - You guys make great points and I will take you at your word. Normally, I would not hesitate to update. I have a lot at stake here with a large vacation coming up with a great many new pictures anticipated. I don't know enough to understand what is meant by "verifying my library." Please give me some insight there and I will start the upgrade process tonight! Seriously, I have wanted to do this for some time, but have been scared away by reading too many situations on these forums.
    TD - you have a good sense of humor. I know all versions eventually need to be left to die away. Support is not eternal. I am sure I missed the announcement that certain versions of iPhoto would no longer offer the ability to conveniently make cards, calendars, books, etc. Like the original poster, I was surprised to learn my version did not offer that functionality only by requesting it and getting denied. Sort of frosted me at the time, as you can tell by my original reply here.
    If anyone can help me with the "verifying" question, I'll get off of here and let the original poster have his thread back!

    Nothing.  The 2nd Gen Touch is OBSOLETE and is WAY past its support life.  If you want to run the newer apps you have to buy a newer iPod.
